The Doctor's Remorse

by Dragon123454

Ten years. That's how long it's been since I met him: The Doctor. Ten years since I saw that beautiful blue box, ten years since he asked me to help him, since we ran. Since we saved the world again, and then he left. I've missed him, but I had to move on. Some people have normal lives, and only a few are forced in. My name is Katherine, and I never expected to meet him again.

7. Chapter 7

in light of the 50th Anniversary, I will be posting very often. hopefully every half hour. (of course not when The Day of the Doctor is on. you guys will just have to suck it up. ;)) Enjoy!

Shock and pain clouded her eyes and a single tear rolled down her cheek. "How did you know?" she asked.

"I saw it. I saw her being pulled from her mother's arms. Why? Why would someone do that?"

"Some people are evil." she paused. "I am."

I looked at her with confusion.

"I am Melody."

I was shocked. We lapsed into an uncomfortable silence and then River started walking again. Our small party kept walking down the hallways. We came to a room eventually that the was plastic and wires hanging everywhere. "Split up. Circle the room." River whispered, and I nodded in agnologment. I set off, completely alone, to the other side of the room. I walked carefully, stepping over wires and trying to not make any noise. Somewhere in the room, a pipe clanged to the floor, causing me to jump. It must be one of the others, I thought. Something moved the plastic to the side of me, and I skittered away from it. I started backing up, because something was moving in front of me. A warning went off in my head, but I assumed it was my imagination. I kept slowly backing up until I touched a piece of plastic. And then a hand clamped over my face. A metal hand. I tried to scream and kick, but I couldn't move. The Cyberman flung me over his shoulder and released his grip on my mouth for a few seconds. I seized the opportunity and screamed as loud as I could. I saw River rush into view, hold up her gun, and then paused, trying to find a good place to shoot at. Then the cyber man started running and River disappeared in a blur. I banged as hard as I could at the Cyberman's back, but he never flinched. Suddenly he stopped and I was thrown onto the hard ground.
