Rose woke up with a start. Another nightmare. Third one this week. The nightmares seemed to get worse every night. One nightmare after the other…and all centered on one person. The person Rose loved the most. The Doctor. He was being tortured or being hurt in some way..and Rose couldn't help him. It was like…She wasn't even there. He couldn't hear her.

Getting out of bed, Rose sighed and walked to make a cup of coffee. With just milk, the way the Doctor liked it. As she walked back towards the couch, she felt a burning sensation in her head and the cup fell to the floor and she placed both hands on her head. Scared of what was going on…

Meanwhile, The Doctor panted, looking over his shoulder. Trying to see his captors. Eyes wild he took the left turn to confuse them. He took the time, time he didnt have, to lean against the wall, cataloguing his injuries. One heart was slow, cracked ribs, head injury, bleeding from cuts, burns and slices made into his skin. He closed his eyes, fighting of a healing come to try and find his TARDIS. Locating the faint hum in his mind, he pushed away from the wall, limping to the TARDIS.

He rested his head against the blue pannels, feeling the hum of his machine. He patted his torn and battered suit, trying to find the key. Not finding the key, the TARDIS opened her doors anyway, letting the Doctor stumble in. He collpased under his weight, falling into the healing coma, letting his body heal.

Worried, the TARDIS did the only thing she knew. She tried to locate her wolf. After searching for a gap in the universes, the TARDIS found her wolf, forcing her way through the walls of the universe, knowing the wolf can save her time lord.

The Doctor groaned in his sleep, feeling an unknown heat and pain in his head.

Rose heard the familiar whirring of the TARDIS. A sound she'd wanted to hear for so long. She slowly made her way outside, no…not walking. Stumbling. As she stumbled into the wrong side of the door, she reached into her pockets and pulled out her TARDIS key.

Sliding the key into the door, Rose pushed open the door and felt tears brim her eyes. The Doctor was collapsed on the floor of the TARDIS. He was hurt..How badly Rose didn't know…She rushed to the Doctor's side and placed her hands on his and a few tears fell from her eyes.

"Doctor…Doctor its me…I'm here…Its Rose…" She whispered even though he was asleep. Knowing he could hear her.

The Doctor's mind was locked while his body was healing. He relived the pain and the torture, feeling every wound be recreated as his body healed them. His mental form looked around his mind, seeing his past regenerations in chains. His current regeneration was cowering in the corner, much like his physical self did in the cell.

"Please help me." His regenerations cried together.

HIs 10th form stood up, limping towards his mental self.

"You made this happen. We were caught and hurt because of you and your vengeance." He spat at himself.

The current Doctor looked towards the dark recess of his mind, seeing the Valeyard and the Time Lord Victorious behind bars. Turning his back on the dark corner, he heard something he thought he would never hear again. Rose.

He followed her voice, opening his eyes in the physical world to see a familiar mop of blonde.

"Rose." He croaked., smiling.

Rose watched in slight worry as the Doctor twinged in his sleep. He was arguing with himself probably. Hoping to soothe the worried Time Lord, she brushed her thumb on the back of his hands.

As his eyes slowly opened, Rose gave a small sigh of relief. "Hello…" She laughed quietly. "Never thought I'd see you again. Seems the TARDIS knew just the person you needed, I think she knew you needed me." Rose whispered as she ran a hand in his hair. Still holding his hand. Worried this was one of her nightmares

He raised his hand to stroke her. Painfully, he brushed her hair away.

"How am I here?" He croaked, flicking his eyes to the ceiling of the TARDIS.

He cleared his throat, sitting up. Mentally he checked his body, checking his injuries. Sighing, he tested his newly healed body, standing up, holding his hand out to Rose. He made his way to the console. checking the statistics.

Smiling, happy that they hadn't destroyed the world, he turned to Rose, "Hello." He said, still slightly croaking.

"I don't even know how your here," Rose admitted honestly. Rose took his hand laughing as it had been the hand that was cut off the Christmas he regenerated. That hand had usually given her the creeps. Not today though. Rose gently pulled him into a hug and tears fell from her eyes as she hid her face in her jacket. "I missed you…"

The Doctor pulled her close, holding her tight, wincing slightly as she lent on his newly healed ribs.

"Rose," He asked when he pulled away, "Where are we in you time line?"

He wanted to make sure he didnt ask anything stupid that would destroy her time time. He wanted her with him, but he also knew that she had a fixed time line with the meta crisis. He wasnt being kind that day on the beach, he was fixing the time lines. Another reason why the time lord victorious was so appealing.

Rose frowned hearing him wince. "Sorry. Kinda forgot about that. Anyway...Its been about three years since you left me with the Human you...Dad and I had been working on those dimension cannons again.." Rose explained before continuing and he would interrupt her.

"I know I was supposed to be there for him, and I was. I was until some idiot killed him. Hit him and just drove off" Rose whispered with tears in her eyes.

The Doctor pulled her close, resting his lips on her hair.

"Rose, I really am so sorry." He whispered, blinking his own tears back.

"Doctor please, its not your fault…" Rose muttered. "We're together again…Traveling in the TARDIS…Its what he told me to do. Go and find you…"

The Doctor gave a watery smile. He then turned to the TARDIS, looking back to Rose.

"Come with me? Please. I don't want to be alone." The Doctor begged.

"Remember Doctor, I made my choice a long time ago and I'm never gonna leave you. Never Ever." Rose promised taking his hand and running her thumb on the back of his palm. "I do believe you owe me a trip yeah? Something about dogs with no noses?"

The Doctor smiled at her, taking her hand. He still didnt know how the TARDIS could find Rose is another universe, but he was happy to have her.

"Yes. Yes." The Doctor said, leaving her to go to the console, moving fast, trying to safely get them to their home universe. He looked down, biting his lip.

"Dont you want to say goodbye to anyone?" HE asked, licking his lips.

Rose gave a deep sigh as he asked her about final goodbyes. "I better see Mum one last time...you know how mum is" Rose said with a light laugh. Jackie and the Doctor had their moments together, but Rose did want to see her mother again. Hug Pete, and little Tony...

The Doctor watched her go, turning back to the scanner, trying to see what was wrong. He hit the monitor, trying to make it work. The words shifted to words he never wanted to see again. Blinking he hit the monitor. hoping he words Bad Wolf would disappear.

As Rose said her good bye's she did them quickly, she wanted to get back to the TARDIS…She felt like something was wrong. When the TARDIS was in sight, Rose felt a strong headache come to her…it was like one minute she had the headache….then wham! Full on headache.

Except this was more than your normal headache. Rose heard the singing again…She'd only heard this song once in her life…When she'd saved the Doctor from the Daleks. "Doctor!" Rose cried as she placed her hands on her head.

The Doctor looked up, running out of the doors.

"Rose!" He called, pulling her close. HIs mind came alive at the touch of her skin. He didnt know what was wrong. He didnt know how to help. He was useless. He held her, rocking her as she cried out.

Rose clung to the Doctor as he Rocked her. "Doctor..." Rose whispered into his jacket. "The singing...The singing's back...They're singing in my head...someone is singing to me..." Unaware to the pair that clung to each other, the Bad Wolf was giving the Doctor something he needed. Someone to travel forever with...The TARDIS knew of their love for each other, so she was attempting to change Rose's DNA...to make her have two hearts instead of one...to become like her thief. The Doctor held her tight. Signals are warning flashed in his mind.

"Bu- But I took that out of you. I stopped this." He said, over and over, trying to convince himself. The TARDIS called louder, trying to get the Doctor's attention. He listened, trying to understand the thoughts and feelings from his ship. He picked her up, clutching her body, and walked to the med lab. He laid her down in the lab, putting on his glasses in a hurry, worried about her.

Rose clung to the Doctor picked her up. "Seems the Wolf had other ideas?" Rose said trying to make a joke out of the tense situation. Rose reached fr the Doctor's hand as soon as he placed his glasses on his face. Trying to calm him if she could. Knowing the Doctor, he wouldn't be able to think properly if he was as frazzled as he was now. "Doctor..Try and calm down. The TARDIS'll do everything she can."

Calm? Calm? Was this women insane?! How could he remain calm at a time like this! He froze, looking at the results on the TARIDS screen.

"That's not right." the Doctor said, taking his sonic to make better scans.

Rose looked at the Doctor worried. Whatever the scans said, made him speechless. "Doctor...Doctor what is it? What do they say?"

"NO!" The Doctor called out, unknown who too, Rose or the TARDIS.

"ɛfo ɛb nəfon lɑwnvɛj" (NO! She's not right) The Doctor cried in Gallifreyan, pulling at his hair. The Doctor then turned and looked at Rose and replied to her, slightly confused yet being perfectly serious.

"Your not human any more. Your Gallifreyan."
