Before anyone realizes what's happening , Rose is kicking and screaming as the one man she is most terrified of is dragging her away from the people she cares about most. Her guests along with Rory's family are running around in panic, and the doctor is frozen staring at the man known as the Master having some kind of silent conversation "let go of her." The doctor says with a clenched jaw and cold stare, "why?" The Master asks simply, "because I said so" The Doctors on the verge of jumping at him. "why should I –really doctor? What importance is she to you?" The Master just smiles with a twinkle in his eye and the doctor is trying to stiffen himself and not lash out like a raging dog. Rose is off to the side in front of Rory and Clara being held down by her worst nightmare , the familiar face of a man she once loved glares at her and laughs "thought you could get away didn't you" anger surges in him and he tightens his grip making Rose wince in pain. "She's important to me and everyone else here , because we're her friends and she does not belong to you!" The doctor spits at the Master, "oh" he laughs "well , that is true , but not what I'm seeing-what I see , is a fiancé who cannot explain how he feels and is still keeping secrets of past loves along with a deep anger towards a certain man , I see a girl who is impossible and is disappointed with a cowards decision from months ago still." The doctor steps back and puts a hand in front of Clara "I see a man who longs for the one who changed him and helped him to get over his mistakes , I see three who have traveled in the TARDIS , I see three people who care deeply for the health , safety and well being of a young blonde , and you know what else I see?" The Master pauses to look at Rose "I see my prize and the doctor's weakness." Rory and Clara stare wide eyed –how can a single man who has never met them already know so much about them? Some of their deepest secrets? Then the doctor speaks up "leave them alone-take me for all I care , whatever you need –I'll help" The doctor surrenders. The master laughs wickedly and the duplicate speaks up "we don't want you or need you – "he struggles to hold Rose down "we already have exactly what we need" , "but you said my weakness?" The doctor looks for an answer "it just makes it harder for you, that is all." The Master speaks up. For a second it is pin drop silence and then the doctor is lunging for the other time lord ready to defend Rose at any cost but instead of running into the Master he rams himself into the duplicate who has handed Rose over to his partner in crime. "you." The doctor stands up and makes eye contact with his mistake , "me" the duplicate waggles his fingers and lifts an eye brow "leave Rose alone –don't think I haven't heard what you put her through" The doctor just stares deep into the brown eyes looking for something , maybe hope , regret , kindness, nothing. There is nothing , "so-who wants to come with?" the Master jokes and corner of his lips move up slightly , then a voice breaks the silence I do." The doctor goes to turn around and complain but a pair of brown eyes stop him from saying a single word , "sweet heart I was kidding-" the Master starts but is all too soon told to "shut up" The brunette walks past the man who was supposedly another version of her doctor and stands still beside Rose. "Clara" Rose gains her attention "don't" Clara holds her hand up beside her hip "I can't let you die, and if –if one of us does , I don't want either of us to be alone." The doctor opens his mouth to reject Clara's choice but the Master beats him "well then , looks like were off" the moment the doctor goes running all four have vanished into thin air leaving him on his knees in pain and misery.
Jack , Mickey , Martha , Sarah Jane , Luke , and Rory are instantly at the doctors side calming him and talking to him and trying to comfort him and create a plan , Jack is red in the face and furious , this wasn't the first time he'd met The Master and nor was it Maratha's. The doctor doesn't even have the ability to get up trying to stifle a sob , so that no one can see how broken he is now , how he has lost all hope and faith and can only think what pain the two of them will suffer and what could become of them. Then someone he hadn't seen in years crouched down to his level and lifted his chin with his finger , blue eyes-brown hair "hey –new man I see" , "Jack Harkness –flirting even with who and when he shouldn't be" the doctor remarks. "where's the TARDIS-I can track their signals from torchwood and follow from there" Jack explains "front yard" the doctor points around the house "let's go-we don't have much time." Jack proceeds to lift the doctor up and leaves Sarah Jane , Luke , Martha , and Mickey to get a hold of the guests ,Rory is quick to follow behind and Off the three men were.
"well , well ,well" The Master and the duplicate grin "Clara Oswin Oswald , and Rose Marion Tyler" The Master slithers as if tasting the names to see how they feel on his tongue "shut up and get on with it" Rose snaps "ooh just like you said – feisty!" The Master looks to the duplicate clapping his hands "who are you?" Clara conjures up the courage to ask , "The Master , friendly foe of the doctor and a time lord" he winks. "what-no , There are no Time Lords , his race died out years ago" Rose refused to believe that The Master was what he said. Clara examined the room they were in , She assumed it must have been on a spaceship of some sorts and the room was cement and some-interesting , weapons and what she could assume were some form of torture tables were in center her heart rate fastened and a lump in her throat began to form , they had no way out of the room either –unless the door was invisible. "do you want to feel?" the Master questioned Rose as he walked closer to her to the point where he had backed her up against a wall "stay away from me" Rose tensed , The Master pushed against her and soon had both hands on either side of her pressing against the frozen grey all. "go ahead" he nodded "why?" Rose's eyes flickered up to his and immediately she regretted having to see the stone glare he was giving her. "you don't believe me" The Master smirked –"go ahead" he repeated grabbing her hand to place it on each heart. He walked away leaving Rose with multiple questions lingering in her mind "what do you want with us-well her?" Clara spoke up glancing back at the now very confused Rose "both of you I can use against the doctor , but Rose -0h she's special , If I can get the badwolf in her to form again she can help me control the universe as well as be mine" The Master explained , as soon as he said mine Clara swore she had seen the duplicate give a dirty look. "And what do you get out of this?" Clara looked to the duplicate with brown messy hair and honey eyes who was wearing a rather 'dark' outfit "me? I get to be a time lord again" he smiled "that's it –you don't want anything else?" she tilted her head knowing there must've been more.
The Master turned awaiting an answer "That's it" he blinked thinking Clara didn't notice the small peak he gave to Rose, who was still standing behind her. "well!" The Master walked towards Clara grabbing her arm and pulling her to a table and sitting her down, she watched as the duplicate made his way over to Rose who flinched as he grabbed her arm and brought her over to the table next to Clara's. "let's get started!" The Master put his hands down on the end of the wooden table , "what are you going to – to do to us?" Clara stuttered As The Master and the duplicate worked to lay them down "this one sure can talk" the Master rolled his eyes. "If you must know-we're going to examine you-see what you can withstand", The duplicate looked at Rose and brushed his hand over the top of her head moving the hair out of her face "don't touch me" Rose hissed , a look of pain and rejection flashed in the duplicates eyes as he walked away and pressed a button-disappearing from the room , Clara titled her head to make eye contact with Rose "I'm sorry" Rose mouthed "it's okay-I made this decision" Clara whispered as the two girls prepared for the worst.
The two men and Time lord entered the TARDIS and within a second the doctor was fumbling with buttons and levers and the coordinates well Jack and Rory stared at the changes the doctor had made to the console room. "you've changed it" Rory said a bit disgusted "to bad" the doctor shot back not having to look at the face Rory was making. "oh-I'm Rory" Rory held his hand to shake Jack's and introduced himself "well hello there, Jack-Jack Harkness" Jack replied cheekily "don't!" the doctor rolled his eyes and Rory scrunched his face in confusion well Jack turned around to complain but was stopped by a hand being held up. Soon they were at the Torchwood base and off again in search of Rose and Clara. Rory stood with Jack and the doctor listening to them bicker about things , when a scream came from down the hallway that lead to old rooms "doctor?" Rory spoke "do you have another companion on board? " Rory asked curious. "don't think so" The doctor didn't even look up , not even a few seconds later a young women with flaming red hair and a Scottish accent was running into the console room with a look of panic on her face , "Amy?" Rory felt every emotion strike him "Rory" she squinted her eyes like she was about to cry. "Rory! I-I-I don't know, I'm so stupid -I just I'm stupid –but I , I just I'm sorry!" "Amy!" The doctor looked up as white as a sheet , "you were gone –I couldn't get you , how did you get here?" The doctor took out his sonic to scan her "it was a set up-Adam was a set up – everything was! , someone named the Master.." Amy said out of breath well Rory helped her sit down on the pilot chair. "wait-Rory. Why are you here?" "long story.." "oh Jack!" The doctor perked up "Rose explained everything over the phone" Jack stopped him. "okay , Rory –let me explain-"Rory stopped her putting up his hands " I understand Amy it's fine-" "no it isn't, I shouldn't have left you-I was confused and tired and stupid and just I wanted-""to explore and have an adventure , | know and it's okay –you can do that now." Rory finished her sentence "why are you so calm about this" Amy stitched her brows in wonder "oh-" Jack realized what Amy didn't know and the doctor gave him a quick glance as in to say "don't. "Rory?" Amy said his name, Rory stayed silent. "we're here" The doctor broke the silence after a good ten minutes and led the three humans out of the TARDIS.
By the end of it Rose was sore and felt terrible, she'd wished Clara had never come along –this was her fault , she should never have took the risk o jumping through the cracks but the thing was she would never have met Rory , never have seen Jack or Sarah or Mickey or even had the chance to see her best friend again , and she would never had seen the doctor again. She heard Clara breath a shaky breath , it was just them now and she had bruises up and down her legs , she wondered why the duplicate had left –you'd think he would've loved another shot to get at her. Rose stayed silent she was sick and tired and had no intention of talking to anyone and after listening to her own screams and Clara's she was sick with herself. There was blood on her dress she knew that , and Clara's cheeks were stained with tears she had apologized more than once but Clara would just tell her it wasn't her fault ,every time. There was a sound that broke her concentration though something like the turn of a handle and when she turned her head she could just make out the bowtie and tweed jacket "doctor" she squeaked "Rose-Clara" she heard his voice crack and in through a hole in the wall followed three other people one who was a female and she didn't recognize but the more she thought about it, it was a pretty good description of Rory's –Amy! "Where are they?" Rory spoke as he undid her restraints "no clue" Rose replied. She sat up and wrapped herself around Rory "I'm sorry" Rose mumbled "for what" Rory looked at her "for being me" Rose looked down sadly "well I'm glad your you and not someone else" Rory brought her eyes back up his and smiled at her. "why did they want you?" The doctor started questioning her "Badwolf-apparently , they could get that working again and I would have the ability to help them control the world ..as well as be theirs" Rose finished. The doctor gave an intense glare and Rose knew what he was thinking. "doctor-I think , the duplicate is different.." Rose spoke but the doctor just came back with "no he's just acting Rose , lets get out of here." Rose winced as Rory picked her up like a princess which only brought back memories of the doctor carrying her up to the flat , The doctor did the same with Clara and then they were off , Amy and Jack followed behind guarding for the Master and the duplicate.
"they'll coming looking" The doctor warned them , "I'm surprised we were so easy to find" Rose acknowledge the fact. Clara stayed quiet and then Rory leaned into to kiss Rose well she wrapped her arms around him , the doctor watched disgusted and Amy watched in horror, they were stopped before they could reach the TARDIS and Rose was grabbed from Rory and held by the duplicate "leave her alone!" Rory snapped "let her go." The doctor commanded , Jack reached for a gun and held it up to the duplicate . "why should I?" the Master quizzed them "why is she so important doctor?" "look how I've played this out for you-Amy's back and there's Rory , now you have Clara again and oh look! If you have Rose what use is she? , Rory may love her but we all know where his heart truly lies , and you have a new companion I'm sure she's a fine replacement-" "give her back!" The doctor snarled. The argument went on until the doctor finally broke , sitting on his knees "I'm sure you've said it before doctor! Why is she so important why do you need her? why should I let her go if I can use her against you?" "because-"
The doctor knew Rory might hate him –but Rory had Amy again didn't he?
But would Rose want to be with Rory still? "Come on" The master snickered
"I love her..I love her with both my hearts more then space and time and she's not yours or anyone else's because she's also been my Rose- to me at least and I don't care what she thinks because she knows..."
"I love her."
