Kera opened her eyes as the morning sunlight streamed through her windows. She had barely slept after her dispute with her father.
She told herself that he was lying about Theta but she could help but wonder if his aligations were true. No she thought to herself. She knew Theta and he wasn't like that.
She quicky got dressed and left her room, mumbling hello as the guards greeted her. After attending her scheduled classes she wondered the halls in search of Theta. She searched for hours until she decided to give up.
As she turned around she saw his familiar blue eyes talking to some other girls. Kera smiled and waved her hand high, trying to get his attention. She thought she saw him look her way but then he suddenly turned away and walked down the hall.
Kera slowly lowered her hand and began to follow him.
Had he just ignored her? No. He probably just didnt see me, she thought.
She followed Theta into the garden where they became friends during the welcome ceremony.
Suddelny he stopped and Kera almost bumped into him.
She smiled and said. "Hey Theta! You can't just stop in the middle of the road."
Theta turned around and Kera's smile slowly faded.
Something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
Theta started at Kera then slowly raised his hand and brushed the now red bruise from where Kera's father had struck her.
He looked like he had tears in his eyes and Kera was desperate to find out what was wrong. "Oh this? This is nothing. My father and I had a argument last night. Nothing major. Don't worry about it."
Theta looked away and Kera grabbed his hands in an effort to find out what was wrong. "Theta,please tell me what's wrong. We can fix it you just have to tell me."
But Theta knew that this wasn't something that could be fixed. That bruise on her cheek was the last straw for him. She would not get hurt because of him him any longer. He knew that this was the right thing. He just had to keep telling himself that this would save her. This would save her.
Theta ripped his hands out of Kera's and laughed to himself.
Kera was confused and slightly worried about his reaction."Theta?"
Theta whispered something under his breath but Kera had heard every word. "Your an idiot."
Kera thought that she had heard incorrectly and whispered. "What?"
Theta looked at her and she was shocked into silence. His eyes were cold and uncaring. Like her father's.
Theta slowly began to walk around her like he was inspecting her. "This really was to easy Princess Kera."
Kera was frozen. He had just used her title.
"I can't believe that after one date you were throwing yourself at me. Were you really that desperate for love?"
Kera felt like her legs were going to calapse under her. This can't be happening. This isn't real. "Theta? What are you saying you said you loved me."
Theta let out a sarcastic laughed and scoffed. "Love? Love you? Ha! No one could ever love you Princess Kera. I was just bidding my time until I could have your fortune."
Theta walked up to Kera and whispered. "You meant nothing to me."
Kera started visibly shaking and silent tears leaked out of her eyes.
Theta was close to breaking down after seeing her in such pain but he knew he had to hold on a little longer. This was going to save her. This was going to save her he kept chanting in his head." But now the game is up and I have no use for you or this planet."
He started to walk away from her but over his shoulder he said. "Goodbye Princess Kera."
Then he walked out of her sight.
Kera's knees gave out and she fell into the cold grass. No. No. No. No. No! This can't be happening. It was all a lie! My father was right. She let shakes and sobs inclose her body. This is a dream. He loved me. He loved me!
Kera suddenly stood up and started running in the direction Theta went.
He was lying. He had to be. He would've leave me. He said he would never leave me alone
. She approached the old museum and heard the sound of the Tardis wezzing.
She ran inside and saw the Tardis beginning to disappear.
NO! He isn't going to leave me!
She bolted toward the box and jumped hoping that she would disappear with it, or convince him to stay.
But instead Kera fell onto the ground where the box had disappeared.
He was gone. He had left her.
Kera sobbed echoed through the museum as she shook and cried.
For a moment she forgot how to breathe and her vision started to become cloudily.
Suddenly she felt a strong hand on her back and she looked up thinking her Doctor had returned.
But her excitement slowly fell when she saw Koschei smiling down at her.
She refused his hand but he slowly scooped her up in her arms and started to carry her back to the palace,or as she liked to call it her new prison.
Theta tried to walk away from her as fast as he could. How could he say those things to her?
Silent tears threatened to fall but he wiped them away with his hand.
Now was not the time.
He ran into the museum and walked into the empty Tardis.
He set the cortinates to some random location and pulled the level down.
He glanced at the moditor and saw Kera running toward him.
Oh no.
He didn't think that she would follow him. He watched as she desperately tried to grab onto the disappearing Tardis and for a moment he thought about forgetting everything and let and letting her inside but he knew he couldn't.
He had to finish this.
He pushed the moditor after from himself so he couldn't see Kera screamed and shouting.
Suddenly the noises stopped and Theta knew it was over.
It was better this way.
