Author's notes: Hope you all love it. Oh, and in this there's a teeny bit of kissy. Ridgebii is pronounced Ridge-ee-bee. Kistain is pronounced kiss-tan-ee. Raish is Ray-ish. NO THE DOCTOR WONT DIE! But he has had an injury to his head. Should be only one more after this.

Chapter 8:

Rose choked on her tears. The Doctor stared at her blandly, leaves on his head to stem the bloodflow. "What?" she asked, unsure he wasn't playing a joke, wondering if he really had forgotten. He would never joke when she was this distraught. "Where am I? Who are you? Who am I?" He suddenly asked. "What's happened to me?" Rose choked on her words, unable to believe this was happening. "It's me, Doctor. Rose? Your companion?" The Doctor looked blank.

Well, she had better answer the questions. "You're in bed on a planet called … erm… some long name beginning with D. Demini-something. You brought us here in your TARDIS. You know? Time and relative dimensions in space machine?" He still looked blank. "You're the Doctor" She finished.

"What's tha?" He asked, pointing to a maggot about to bite his foot. She screeched, grabbed it and tossed it away."The blood" She murmured, noticing the maggots emerging near the Doctor's head. "NO!" Se screeched, rushing over, lifting the doctor's head onto her legs. He cried out in agony but the maggots gave up as she lifted the bloodsoaked items from the floor.

"What happened to me?" Groaned the Doctor, agoized. "You got hit by a big rock" Replied Rose, softly. The Doctor seemed surprised at this. The Doctor had said the Raccnoss. Raccnoss. Spiders. She had to defeat the Raccnoss. Her idea struck. She would defeat the Raccnoss for the Doctor. He would have wanted her to- if he could remember her name.

She scooped the bloodstained things up, ordering a few of the reptile creatures to guard the Doctor. Raish, his sister, and Gigardu, one of the warriors.

She went to the ship and found a poision. First to kill the maggots. Saturating the bloodstains in the poison, she left them all over the place, watching as hundreds of maggots emerged, eating hungrily. And then melting into stinking pools. She heard a scream, and held up her box of matches.

Spider-killing time!
