A/N:Thank you, anonymous reviewer! I was wondering why I wasn't getting any reviews for it, but that's just my ego talking. Just your comment motivated me to write more, although I do hope I get more comments, any sort of feedback is good! Remember, 9th in normal, 10th in italics, and 11th in bold. Enjoy!

"Huh?" Donna asked. Rose didn't understand either, and with one brief look at the doctor, she took comfort in the fact that he seemed to be just as lost as she was. "But, no!" The man groaned and began to pace, running his hands back through his hair, "That can't be it! It's impossible! Unless…" He trailed off, nearing The Doctor till he was almost full contact and looked into his eyes. "No!" he groaned again, and moved away again, "that can't be it!" Rose couldn't take it anymore and she interrupted his rant, "What's going on here?" He stepped close to her this time and she noticed the intensity in his chocolate brown eyes, a pleading in his gaze. "Rose? Do you know who I am?" Her response was instant, "No. How do you know my name?" She took a wary step back and the man looked like a lost puppy, but with a deeper pain in his features. Donna broke the tension of the moment by marching up to him, "Oi! Are you going to tell me what's going on, spaceman?!" she demanded.
He ignored her. "I'm The Doctor." He stated quietly. Rose shook her head, "No, you're not, he is." She clung to The Doctor, the real one, but uncertainty laced her voice.
"Well, yes, and no. He is The Doctor, but so am I; I'm his next regenerative form, his next, face."
Understanding filled The Doctor's face and he stepped forward, saying, "But there's no way we could cross paths. Ever." The Doctor picked up his line of thought, "But this isn't a parallel universe, even then, we couldn't meet, it would destroy the space time continuum. Ah! But that would explain the strange frequencies, and the Tardis acting odd." Rose couldn't understand most of what The Doctor was saying, but the Tardis comment she did understand and she quickly interrupted, "We had to leave our Tardis a couple miles back."
"Sorry to interrupt you two genius boys over there, but will someone please tell me what the heck is going on?!"
"I'm him." The Doctor pointed at the Doctor, "from the future."
"So my Doctor will turn into you?" Rose asked.
"Yes." The two doctors chorused.
"But, but The Doctor can't be two people…" she stuttered, her mind still trying to grasp the concept of there being two Doctors.
"Doctor who?" a man drawled and the group whipped around, staring at a man who had seemingly come out of nowhere. "Who are you?" Everyone cried in unison and The Doctor added, "And why are you wearing a bow tie?"
Again, freakishly short, but I'm gonna update again soon to make up for the shortness! Please, review!
