Hello All! I am now back from holiday and had a lovely time thank you. Sorry for the evil cliff hanger last time ...
He Who Sins
Chapter Forty Four: Decisions, Decisions…
The Doctor held a baby in each hand; their tiny faces were turning blue as their mouths gasped for air. The Doctor moved towards Rose's head, her eyelids were flickering and her heart beat was slowing as the blood pooled around her legs.
'Doctor' Rose squeaked, 'I can't hold on anymore' she whispered.
'Please' the Doctor begged, he looked down at their babies
'I need to get them to the Tardis…' he said urgently 'I need to get you to the Tardis…' Rose smiled up at him and placed her hand on his cheek
'Go' she whispered, he shook his head, his eyes filling with tears as he looked down into her eyes
'No, I'll never leave you Rose' he promised. Rose looked up at him and shook her head
'You have to go, you have to save them' she begged. The Doctor felt a tear fall down his cheek as he saw the truth of her words in her eyes
'Please' she whispered, 'Save them'. She pressed her finger to a cheek of each of her tiny little girls
'For me' she begged as her eye lids flickered 'For our family'
'Rose…I can't…' he whispered. She lent her head and pressed a kiss to each cheek of the twins
'Look after them' Rose whispered 'Remember to keep faith and hope…faith and hope' she whispered as her eyes shut. The Doctor felt a tear stream down his face
'Faith and hope' he promised as pressed a kiss to her forehead
'I'll be back for you Rose, I promise'. With that he turn and ran towards the Tardis, clinging to his children who's tiny, premature respiratory systems were failing, he ran like he had never before – because the sooner he got there, the sooner he could go back for Rose. He wasn't losing her, not here, not like this. With tears streaming down his face he ran with every once of energy in his body.
Tymon sat beside Rose and took her big hand between his little ones; he held it in his lap and leant forward over it gently crying. He watched Rose's chest rise and fall as her breaths began to soften, the blood pool around her began to grow
'No' Tymon whispered angrily, as visions of his own mother dieing burned through his head; he knew he couldn't let the only women who had been like a mum to him die. He stood up and walked over to her face, gently pressing his soft hands against her cheeks
'I'll get you out Rose, I promise' he said as his voice trembled. He looked around for something to use, but there was nothing – so he did the only thing he knew to do. He picked up both of her arms so they hung above her head, then he pressed a kiss to her cheek before he took hold of her hands. Very, very slowly, he began to try to drag her body towards where the Doctor had headed – he knew this was his moment, his destiny.
The Doctor slammed into the Tardis, by now the girls faces had turned blue and their eyelids remained shut, he ran through the control room and towards the medical room
'No' he shouted out 'No! No one else can die tonight' he vowed as he barged into the medical room. He ran towards the two incubators that lay ready, heated up waiting for their tiny inhabitants. The Doctor took the lids off and placed each baby into one, he picked up the smallest and wiped of all the remains of birth, next to him he picked up a set of tiny tubs, tilting the child in his hand he placed the tube down her throat. Once he was satisfied it was in he lay her down into the incubator and switched the machine on, slowly it began to fill her lungs with air, breathing for her as her body lay still. The Doctor turned to the larger twin and did the same, soon both babies were lying in their incubators, not moving, just breathing through their machines. He wiped tears off his face with the back of his hands as he watched his daughters lie still in their tiny plastic cages. They were wrapped in clinical white blankets that matched their pale skin, on their heads they both had tiny messes of blonde hair, but he didn't know their eye colours as they hadn't opened their eyes yet. He clenched his fists and preyed to what ever God he believed in, that they would live, that they would be okay. He took a deep breath and stepped away from the incubators
'I'll be back' he promised as he pressed a kiss to the top of each plastic case, with that he turned and ran. Leaving his two new born daughters was the hardest thing the Doctor ever had to do, but he knew he had to do it – for Rose. So he turned and ran out of the doors and towards the corridor, preying that it wasn't too late for them. That it wasn't too late for them to be a family.
Blood marks stained the stone floors as Tymon slowly dragged Rose along, he no longer knew if she was alive or dead, he just knew he had to get her to the Doctor. So he continued pulling her along, ignoring her pale complexion and the endless amount of blood that trailed after her. He continued for what could have been.
