My head pounded as my eyes flickered open. It was blurry at first, but then I saw everyone peering over me.
"Huh? Wha-? Uh. Jack? What's going on?" He soothingly sushed me, stroking my hair as I sat up.
"Hey, hey lay back down! You need to rest!"
I moaned and rubbed my head, as my blurred vision lessened, and I could see everyone clearly. Shit, I was in the autopsy room? What happened? Martha and Owen were looking at some scans on the computer screen, Ianto and Tosh were sitting with the babies on the sofa, and The Doctor and River were sitting on the staircase, smiling sympathetically.
Planet Earth. This is where I was born. And this is where I died.
I screamed back in pain, clutching my bump, everyone started running round the room, reading well, readings from the screen and Jack started to panic, trying to calm me down.
For the first nineteen years of my life nothing happened. Nothing at all, not ever.
Martha attached electrodes to me, as Jack started to panic.
And then I met a man called the Doctor, a man who could change his face. And he took me away from home in his magical machine.
"Owen hurry up please help her!" I hear Jack shout, starting to cry.
"Jack..." I managed to murmur.
He showed me the whole of time and space. I thought it would never end…
The pain was unbearable, my head was killing me. The voice, please, help me!
"How long are you going to stay with me?"
"Forever"
That voice, the mans voice, I had heard it somewhere before, long ago, only once.
That's what I thought. But then came the army of ghosts; then came Torchwood and the war.
Torchwood what had we done. My head, I cried and grabbed Jack, still holding my bump.
And that's when it all ended. This is the story of war on Earth... This is the story of how I died…
I lay back, breathlessly crying. Holding Jack's arm.
"Owen you better have some bloody results or so god help me..."
"It looks like just some panic attacks... Probably stressed about the baby, should be fine, probably wasnt advisable flying in The TARDIS so heavily pregnant. Just relax Gwen." Owen softly smiled.
"Amy and Rory are on their way up by train, we were gonna go get them but they told us to stay with you." River smiled walking over and giving me a hug.
The Doctor got a call from Amy and Rory, so him and River went to meet them at the train station, Ianto put the babies to sleep and started making coffee, whilst Owen and Martha were checking my readings in the bay and Tosh was reading some papers at her desk. Jack had headed out to the chinese, get some dinner for us all, it had been a long day. I cuddled up on the sofa in my pyjamas, took a sip of my tea and put it on the table. My head started to thump.
If you... survived the Time War, don't you want to know what happened...?
That voice, it was always that voice!
Place your hand...
What happened to the Emperor?
I tried to call out but all I could do was whimper, slowly sliding down off the sofa.
The Emperor survived?
That metal voice, the Daleks. When they took the earth, Tosh's time bubble saving us as Martha and Jack stood with The Doctor and saved the world, it was after that she joined Torchwood, where she belonged.
Well, until he met ME. Because if these are gonna be my last words, then you're gonna listen. I met the Emperor, and I took the Time Vortex and poured it into his head, and turned him into dust. D'you get that? The God of all Daleks, and I destroyed him!
This time, more was coming through. Tosh froze and watched me. Slowly getting up before shouting and running over with Ianto. Ianto held the back of my head and tryed to calm me down whilst Tosh reached for her phone, trying to ring Jack.
I wanted to hear her say, "We are not amused." Bet you five quid I can get her to say it.
Before it had been all serious speeches but now? I just wanted Jack by my side, I wanted him to stop the pain.
Taking that bet would be an abuse of my responsibilities as a traveller in time.
Ten quid?
Done.
More and more of it flooding through, like hearing billions of conversations at one time.
Now. First thing's first. Be honest. How do I look?
Different.
Good different or bad different?
Just different.
Am I... ginger?
No, you're sort of just... brown.
Aww, I wanted to be ginger. I've never been ginger! And you, Rose Tyler, fat lot of good you were, you gave up on me. Ooh, that's rude. Is that all I am now? Rude? Rude and not ginger?
Why could I hear so many thoughts, memories? I wanted everything to go back to normal. I wanted everything to be happy again, Me and Jack and everyone else, back of our honeymoon, about to have a baby.
I, um, I address the Sycorax, um, according to... Article 15 of the Shadow Proclamation. I command you to leave this world with all the authority of... the Slitheen Parliament of Raxacoricofallapatorious, and, um, the Gelth Confederacy, as, uh, sanctioned by the Mighty Jagrafess, and, ooh! the Daleks! Now leave this planet in peace!
"My head, its burning!" I cried. Martha ran to my side whilst Owen panicked, searching through medical equipment. At the same time The TARDIS materialized and Jack ran through the cog door, as they all rushed to my side. They heaved me up onto the sofa, as I lay there. "Jack, please it hurts." I whispered.
Cause this is my life, Jackie - it's not fun, it's not smart, it's just standing up and making a decision because nobody else will.
Then what are you waiting for?
I could save the world but lose you.
"Its seems to be a manuscript, predicting thoughts into Gwen's brain to make contact, but it should be fine, you shouldnt feel it, it should be just like listening to a audio tape, but.." Mumered Owen, pressing a few buttons on my computer. "Its like whoever is doing this is trying to use her as a portal, trying to come through, teleport, travel even. Take a look." Ianto, Tosh, Amy and Rory stayed by my side, as Martha, The Doctor, Jack and River stood by Owen, reading the results on the computer, The Doctor pressed a few more buttons before his, Martha's and Jack's eyes grew wide. The Doctor whispered into River's ear and her too, her eyes grew wider. The Doctor took out his screwdriver and pressed a few buttons, and Jack grabbed the microphone.
"You are NOT doing this."
"And why not Jack? I want to see you, and The Doctor, we can all fly off together in time and space, the old team!" a crackled voice replied, echoing through the computer speakers and into the hub.
"Your hurting her!" Jack shouted, boiling with anger.
"She's only a little human Jack, she'll die and she'll just be another person who was in your life, your long life throught the whole of reality. She's not important!"
"DONT YOU DARE SAY THAT ABOUT MY WIFE! Your hurting her! I swear to god Rose I will find you if you hurt our baby!"
"Baby? Ha. Wow. Well, at least I wont have you flirting with me to get in the way eh? Now where's The Doctor? Has he missed me? His true love is back woooo!" She said, she was of her fucking head, delerious.
"She's gone mental?" River growled. "Come on, Ianto and Owen, help Gwen up, get her into The TARDIS. Tosh, I need you to get some extra comms ready for us, Dad, go get Gwen's birth bag, its in Jack's office and Mum go set the co-ordinates for your house. The rest of us are gonna set up a-"
The Doctor caught her arm and held her close, looking into her eyes. "River. Sweetie, you have to go, and if were gonna sort her out, then we need Gwen here because wherever she comes through, it will be where Gwen is, and we cant have her on The TARDIS. And you know that. You go, I'll ring you if we need back up, just take The TARDIS and get out of here. Me and Jack will talk to her." He kissed her on the head. "I love you." He whispered.
"Erm, leave that Dad." She said to Rory as he walked in, and placed it on the sofa. "Come on guys." She walked into The TARDIS. Martha picked the twins up and turned to us.
"Please be careful." She weakly smiled and carried on into The TARDIS, it materialized with just Me, Jack and The Doctor left inside the hub. Jack put his arm around me and The Doctor placed his hand on my shoulder, as a bright light flashed infront of the cog door.
"Well lookie here, you've regenerated! And christ when you said she was pregnant..."
Please review! I'm scared this one wont be as good as the first, also I know its a bit of Rose bashing even though I do like Rose so sorry :S
