I do not own anything from Doctor Who. I only own my OC.

Chapter Five: Not so Bad Afterall
Group two (including me) was shoved towards the pad.
I gripped the bottom of my shirt in fear I'd never the Doctor again.
I was stopped before I could walk onto the pad.
Haiao had offered to take my place.
The Daleks saw no reason not to allow it. They let Haiao go instead of me.
"You don't need to do this." I whispered to him.
"I do have to. I don't want your life to end like this." He smiled at me.
His short, bleach blonde and blue hair gently bobbed up and down as he walked with the group to the chamber.
"COMENCE" Twar commanded.
The chamber closed and the machine activated.
Everyone heard the screams coming from the machine.
A tear ran down my face.
The chamber opened and the bodies dropped.
Haiao was smiling.
I sobbed now, not wanting this to have happened.
"GROUP THREE WILL PROCEDE ONTO THE PAD." Twar ordered.
Group three and I walked over to the pad.
Please, Doctor. Save us. I thought, holding anymore tears back.
We all stood in place in the chamber.
"COM-" Twar was interrupted by a sudden banging and crashing.
The doors at the entrance slammed open as the Doctor, the Guardians, and Bentia marched in.
"Let them go." The Doctor demanded, pointing the sonic at Twar.
"YOU ARE THE DOCTOR."
"Yep."
"EXTERMINATE!"
Twar began to fire his laser when a guardian blocked it with his spear.
"I'll tell you again. Let. Them. Go." The Doctor demanded again, determined expression on his face.
"EXTERMINATE!"
All of the Daleks around fired their laser (IMMA FIRING MA LASERS!) but the beams were blocked by the spears of the guardians.
"WHAT IS THIS?" Twar shook violently, his eye stalk looking around.
"We are the Guardians of the Balance of Bubblarcius. We order you to stand down." The biggest guardian commanded, outstretching his spear at Twar.
"DALEKS DO NOT STAND DOWN. EXTERMINATE!"
The Daleks fires more lasers. It was useless. Their lasers just evaporated at touch with the guardian spears.
The Guardians seemed to have gotten tired of it because they opened their mouths and fires a large beam into the Daleks, evaporation them and bits of the chamber.
The Daleks screamed as they disappeared.
The Doctor rushed to free the separate groups.
He unlocked my group free.
I ran at him and wrapped him in a hug.
He placed his arms around me in comfort.
"I thought I'd never see you again." I sobbed.
The Doctor just tucked his head into my shoulder and rubbed my back.
He let me go. As soon as he did, Bentia wrapped me in her arms.
We both laughed in relief.
We let go and turned to the Bubbloids who had been trapped.
The little Bubbloid girl tugged the Doctor's sleeve.
"Are you the Doctor? The Time Lord?" She asked, looking up at him.
The Doctor looked at me.
"Apparently, you saved them before in your 6th regeneration." I replied, nodding.
"Ah." The Doctor looked at the little girl.
"Yes. I am the Doctor. The...Time Lord." He smiled at the Bubbloids around him.
They swarmed us, exchanging hugs with us and giving thanks.
Once the Doctor decided it was enough, he made his way to the exit with me.

The Doctor unlocked the TARDIS door, allowing me to enter.
He turned to Bentia.
"Can I ask you something?" He asked.
Bentia nodded.
"Would you like to travel with us through time and space?"
Bentia looked at him in shock.
"Doctor. I'm sorry, I can't. My grandmother has been chosen to be the next elder in this village. I need to be here to aid her." Bentia bowed. "Thanks you, though."
"Ah. Alright. I'd better be on my way, then." The Doctor turned to leave but Bentia grabbed his hand.
He looked at her.
Bentia expelled a gold-colored bubble for him.
She opened his palm and gave it to him.
She then turned and left, helping the ex-prisoners to their homes all over Bubblarcius.
The Doctor scoffed and entered the TARDIS.
He let go of the gold bubble and let it fly up into the TARDIS walls.
"Too bad." I frowned.
"What?"
"I liked Bentia. She would have been a fantastic companion." I smiled awkwardly.
"Yeah." The Doctor sat on the jump seat next to me.
I rubbed my face, a little sad.
"Something wrong?" The Doctor asked, wrapping an arm around my shoulder.
"Haiao, one of the prisoners, took my place when I was about to go into the Creation Chamber. He gave himself so I'd live to see you again and continue traveling." A tear glittered down my face gently.
"Oh. It's alright. I would have done the same. So would you, I think." The Doctor rubbed my shoulder in comfort.
"I would have given my life to save all of them if I needed to. I'd do the same if you were in danger." I looked into his eyes.
"You would? Huh. I'd do the same as well for you." He smiled.
"But I'd do the same if you were going to do the same after I offered to do the same." I giggled.
"Oh, you. I'd do the same if you were going to do the same after I offered to do the same after YOU offered to do it!" The Doctor chuckled.
I smiled.
"I don't think I'd go that far." I sighed, looking around the TARDIS.
"Where do you want to go next?" The Doctor asked, breaking the awful silence that lasted almost ten minutes.
"ALREADY? We just came back from an adventure! I need to rest up and catch up on real life!" I shouted, standing up.
"Oh?" The Doctor looked at me.
"Yes." I turned and left to freshen up.
Once the Doctor was completely alone in the console room, he put his hands behind his head and crossed his legs.
"Teens."
