Part Four
The light dimmed and a man was standing in the TARDIS doorway. He was tall and young and had short blonde hair. "What are you doing in my TARDIS?" the Doctor demanded. Just having a look around."the man replied walking closer to them. "What do you want?"the Doctor asked.
"I've been watching you,Doctor."he began. " Ever since we last saw each other. You do great things,Doctor,brave things. But the fact remains that it will all end very soon."
The Doctor was very puzzled by all the things this Eternal was saying, "What are you saying?" he asked. "He's coming again,Doctor..."the Eternal replied softly, "stronger than he has ever been before. And this time you won't be able to stop it. You will fail,Doctor." "I never fail." the Doctor said defending himself. "You lying." But the Doctor knew he wasn't. "Why are we here?"
"Your here to be warned,Doctor." the Eternal said to him. " I brought you here...it was time to tell you of what is to come. You need to be a little prepared. Soon,Doctor, your song will play it's last note." "And what about him?" asked the Doctor pointing at the sea captain. "Disguise." the Eternal said looking at the old man. Suddenly, was used to be a shabby sea captain was not a tall authority figure in a long white garment made of silk. The Doctor was baffled, all of this was just to a warning for him. " I don't know what to say." the Doctor was lost for words. Jane walked closer to him for support. She already made up her mind that she will stay with him forever.
She wanted to help the Doctor with whatever was coming. "Can we go?" the Doctor asked taking Jane's hand. The First Eternal nodded and moved out of their way. The Doctor and Jane without saying a word walked into the TARDIS together. Everything inside looked good, no damages or changes. Jane sat down as the Doctor worked at the controls. The engines roared as they went back into the time vortex. Several minutes later, they were back to where they started. They walked outside, it was still raining like it was. "OK, so what now?" Jane asked wanting to continue the journey. " I'm sorry." the Doctor told her sympathetically. "You can't come." Jane's heart sunk to the pit of her stomach. "What?! Why?!" she asked raising her voice. "It's too dangerous." he told her.
"But I want to be with you." she said holding onto to him. "Forever." The Doctor held her in his arms. "I want that too."he told her. " But you can't come. Everyone who has ever been with me has gone away." "But if I stay." she told him looking up into his eyes. " I will never leave you."
" It's too much of a risk. I don't want to lose you like I've lost everyone else." the Doctor told her, releasing her from the embrace. "The let me stay." Jane pleaded and started sobbing.
"You'll understand one day." he told her walking back into the TARDIS. He turned back and said to her, "You were brilliant." he smiled warmly at her and closed the TARDIS door.
Jane stood there crying as the TARDIS disappeared. She walked back home, her parents never knew where she had been, just liked the Doctor had promised her. Meanwhile, the Doctor stood by the door keeping his hand on it. He reflected on his recent events and the fond memories he just made.
"Good-bye,Jane." he said aloud as if she was still there. " I'll always remember you." He then continued traveling toward what would be the greatest battle of his existence.
