Hellooooo there!

So! this is the mid-finale. It is short, very short but still not as short as chapter 3 lol. But, I prefer giving you a short, well written and efficient chapter rather than a rubbish chapter where I just write to reach a certain amount of words.

So, as I said, the story won't end here, it'll continue.

Sorry for the time it took and the late update, fainted at work because of the heat so I had to recover a little before being able to think properly ^_^

Enjoy!

Chapter 25

"They're out! All of them!" shouted Rory as he burst into the control room. He then tried to bar the door to prevent the Silence getting in as the creatures were electrocuting all the soldiers outside the room. "No one gets in here! Ma'am, my men out there should be able to lock this down. We have them outnumbered."

"And you're wearing eyedrives based on mine, I think." said Kovarian. "Oops."

"What do you mean?" growled the Doctor, walking up to her, still handcuffed. As he asked, Doctor Kent, the woman who spoke to River earlier, started to scream because of her eyedrive who had begun to send an electric shock to her brain. "Help her!"

"She's dead." stated Amy.

With Madam Kovarian laughing like a devil behind them, the Doctor himself started to be electrocuted by the eyedrive.

"Eyedrives off, now! Remove them!" shouted the Doctor.

Melody came to him and removed his, River's and Amy's right after.

"You need to go up." she said.

As he started to walk towards an exit, Madam Kovarian talked to him:

"The Silence would never allow an advantage without taking one themselves. The effect will vary from person to person. Either death, or debilitating agony. But they will take you all, one by one." And as she finished her little satisfied speech, her own eyedrive started to spark with electricity. "What are you doing? No, it's me! Don't be stupid, you need me! Stop it! Stop that!" As she managed to take it half off, she pleaded Amy to help her. "Please, Amy, you wouldn't disappoint your pre-precious Doctor, he wouldn't let me die…."

"You took my baby from me and hurt her." said the woman in answer, looking darkly at Madam Kovarian. "And now she's all grown up and she's fine, but I'll never see my baby again. So yes, the Doctor is very precious to me, you're right, but you know what?" she asked, leaning in to put Kovarian's eyedrive on again. "River Song didn't get it all from you, sweetie."

Melody jumped in between the Doctor and Amy who was letting Madam Kovarian die, they needed to go up, they had to, use as much time as possible.

"Doctor, up, now! Amy and River have something to show you. Rory, you too!"

"Rory?" asked Amy, her head suddenly turning around hearing the name of her husband.

"Oh come on Amy, I'm sorry, it was supposed to be all cute and everything but for God's sake you need as much time as possible before the Silence gets in, so up! Now!" Melody said, standing right next to Captain Williams. She let Amy take care of her husband, finally remembering and taking his eyedrive off.

"Take yours off before it activates!" said the Doctor, coming up to her.

She looked up at him with a small but soft smile.

"You just go, I'll be right behind you."

"No, no Melody there's no way you're staying behind! Take it off, please take it off before it activates!"

She smiled again and kissed his cheek.

"It has activated, Doctor." she said, as the Time Lord finally noticed her fists clenched and trembling. Then she looked over his shoulder. "River, Rory, take him, go to the Receptor room, I'll be right behind you."

"No! NO! Leave me! MELODY!" the Doctor shouted, his voice breaking, trying to break free.

They started to head towards the back of the room as Melody was taking the gun Rory dropped and turning to face the door when, suddenly, the bar blocking the entrance broke and the Silence came in. She could hear the angry and fearful screams of the Time Lord but then, one of the creature spoke:

"You are unknown to us, the one whose identity is hidden in the stars, know that you will die for nothing."

"D'you think?" she asked defiantly, and then she fired, shooting six creatures before the gun was already out of ammunitions. She turned around, to search on the bodies of the soldiers behind her and saw the Doctor was still fighting to come back to her.

"Go! Just go!" she shouted "I'll be ri-"

She could not finish her sentence. An almost surprised look grew on her face as her body was touched by lightning from the creatures behind her. Pain hit her, the shock making her feel like every inch of her body was burning. She managed to take her eyedrive off, wanting to forget about the creatures killing her, though she knew she was able to remember them because of being from a parallel universe where they were just prosthetics. The truth was that she wanted the last image she will take with her before dying to be seen with both of her green, blue-shaded eyes. She looked up and searched for the Doctor's eyes, his bright green eyes. His face was ravaged by anger, panic and most of all, pain. She could not hear him, it was as though she became deaf, but their eyes locked. Fighting the pain that was burning each one of her cells, she managed so smile to him. A soft smile. He will be safe.

Not able to fight the pain anymore, her body decided it was time. Darkness started to shroud her vision and her legs failed to support her, and before she even touched the ground, she was gone already. She was dead.

You can now call me Moffat's daughter *evil laugh*. More seriously, let me know what you think, I'd like to know your reaction, you were all so impatient! ;)
