Chapter 10:
That night Rose dreamt of the Doctor again. He was with a ginger haired woman called Donna. She was rude and sarcastic and yet sensitive and kind. She was right at home in the TARDIS. In the dream the Doctor and Donna were in Pompeii. One thing stuck in Rose's mind when she woke up; a man in the dream told the Doctor 'She is returning'. Rose couldn't help hoping, wishing with all her heart that the 'she' was her. For once she didn't scream when she woke up. After Alice's vision - which she believed showed the future and not the past - and that dream Rose had silent hope. Silent hope that the Bad Wolf would return in her, that she'd get back to the Doctor. In her heart she couldn't believe her dreams were only dreams, they were too clear, too vivid, too real.
She was shocked to find the house empty once she was dressed and went downstairs. She had excepted Jacob to be sat in the kitchen eating breakfast, but no one was there. She left the house and asked the first person she came to if anyone had see Jacob.
'I think he was with Bella' was the reply.
Rose sighed. She knew Jacob loved Bella and she knew how blind and unconditional love was, but she knew that Jacob deserved someone who would love him back. She headed towards Bella's place.
'Alice had another vision' Jacob said the second he saw her.
'Hello to you too, Jacob, nice morning isn't it' Rose said sarcastically. 'What about?'
'Hi, sorry' said Jacob. 'New Born Vampires, in Forks'
Rose blinked. She'd only been awake roughly an hour, she was in no state of mind to be hearing that there was going to be newborns in Forks.
'They were just going crazy in her vision' explained Jacob 'just trying to kill anyone they could.'
'Right' Rose said, simply. 'Well that's not good'
'You're a bit calm' Bella pointed out.
'Am I?' asked Rose. She smiled. 'Well I'm sure everything will be ok'
Bella and Jacob both raised an eyebrow. Did Rose know something they didn't? Rose, herself, didn't even know why she was so calm about it. When she said everything will be ok she truly believed it. She thought it was a bit like the Doctor would act. Never panicking, never worrying, just remaining calm and reassuring everything else, while working out what to do.
What to do, Rose didn't have a clue of. She giggled to herself as that reminded her of Sarah and the pre-regeneration Doctor
'You seem to know what you're doing'
'I give that impression, yes'
The slight difference was, the Doctor always had a way out. He had is trusty Sonic Screwdriver and the TARDIS if he needed to get away. Rose only a open-return ticket to England and everything she learnt from the Doctor. Ok, she was quick to realise that everything she learnt from the Doctor would probably actually be pretty useful.
'What's funny?' asked Jacob.
'Huh?' said Rose. 'Oh, nothing I was just thinking'
'About the Doctor?'
'Yeah' Rose smiled.
'Any ideas on how we can sort out the newborns problem?' asked Jacob.
ch
'Firstly we should wait and see if it becomes a problem' replied Rose. 'You said Alice's visions are dependant on the persons decisions. So the newborns are currently planning to come here, they may change their minds' Rose paused. 'Hold on a sec. I thought newborns were wild and mad and blood was all that mattered to them?'
'It is' replied Jacob looking confused.
'But that suggests that newborns would be in no state of mind to be planning to come anywhere' Rose continued. 'So that suggests they're not alone. Chances are that there's some older vampire leading them here'
'Why here?' asked Bella.
'I don't know' said Rose. 'Maybe they know there's other vampires here. Maybe they know there's werewolves here and want to hurt them' Rose only actually thought about that as she said it, and it terrified her. She didn't want anyone vampire, werewolf, alien or human hurting Jacob. 'Or maybe it's just random'
'Ok' Jacob said. 'Assuming they don't change there minds, and they do come here, what then?'
Rose shrugged. She smiled innocently and nervously; 'We cross that bridge when we come to it'
The disappointed and scared looks on Bella and Jacob's faces told Rose how much they were hoping she'd have solution. She thought about it; would the Doctor have a solution by this point? It would depend on the situation. In this situation, she wasn't sure. He'd probably be making it up as he went along and be hoping it turned out well. Would she be able to do that? Well, she was about to find out.
'I'll think of something' she said, and there was an element of promise in her voice.
