Epilogue
Afterword by Melody Williams
This is the Story of Melody Pond, and this is how it begins…
I blew into this world on a ray of light.
An alternate version created by the Tardis herself of the original Melody Pond who got turned into a weapon.
Carried by the Tardis through the crack in the Universe and put in this cot, like a gift for childless parents. I grew up into being a young woman, Melody Williams, until, one day, my fate caught up on me.
The day I met the Doctor.
It was the best day ever, the best day of my life.
In my Universe, he was just a dream. I thought he was. I was wrong.
He was real and one day, he found me.
He had felt there was something special about me but he did not know what, and so did I at the time.
But it's like he said: he never knows how, he only knows who. And I flew away with him, trying to help every now and then thanks to my foreknowledge.
I met Amy and Rory. And I met River Song, on her first day. I met Melody Pond.
We went on adventures, until that day.
The day River Song became the woman who killed him. And the woman who married him.
April 22nd 2011, 5:02pm.
She created a paradox by not killing the Doctor, History happening all at once, our world collapsing on itself. The Doctor and River being the epicentre of the upcoming explosion.
The Silence tried to finish the work by themselves, and they attacked us.
As Amy, Rory, the Doctor and River were saving the Universe, I stayed behind to help them, as I always did.
I gave my life for him, his eyes being the last image I was taking with me in death.
The Doctor.
He was everything for me.
I have fallen on this day.
But I'm still blowing.
I'm still running, everywhere and everywhen.
All of Time and Space before me.
I don't think I'll ever land, that I'll ever stop. Sometimes, it feels like I have lived a thousand lives, scattered in a million pieces. But it's always me. Always running. Always saving him. Always giving my life for him. Because he is worth it.
Because he is the Doctor.
My Doctor…
There was no Clara Oswald in this Universe. Because Clara Oswald was me. Clara Oswald was my next incarnation. Because that day, when the Silence killed me, what the Doctor did not see, is that I regenerated. Burning from regeneration energy, I killed them all. All the Silence. And when the timeline got aborted, I got placed where I had to be… As Clara Oswald.
Until one day, he found me. Again.
We ran together on adventures again. He did not know who I really was, I thought it would hurt him too much. And it had to be this way. Until that day.
The day we went to Trenzalore.
The day he found out who I was.
I was made of Time Space energy and that's why I could use it as a defence mechanism. And that's when he understood. When I wiped out the Whisper Men by using the gift of the Tardis. When my disguise faded to let appear who I really was.
I was Melody Pond all along.
And to save the Doctor one more time, I had to jump in his time stream.
And to save the Doctor one more time, I had to die.
But I'm still blowing…
This is story of Melody Pond, and this is how it ends...
~ The End…
So I hope you enjoyed it. Now Time and Space is over but know that I am making a sequel to this story so if you're interested in reading it, just go follow me or the story "The Shining World Of The Seven Systems" to be sure you'll get a notification once I'll start to post there (for now there's only a one shot but I'm making it a full story following this one :) ). I'm already working on it :)
I hope you liked Time and Space, it was my very first complete fanfiction (and written in English, I am French). I can't believe it's finished since I've been working on it for a whole year! It went over 200 pages! :D
So I would like to thank you all for your support, and especially Turtle and Freya Astrid Nova who have been absolute sweet hearts!
I hope to see you soon under my next story :) Take care!
Melody - xxxx.
