Ch 4 – The Message.

Donna ran out of the room shouting "Doctor, Doctor!" she saw him running down the hallway towards her.

He was talking to them trying to find out what was wrong with her, when Donna came running out the room like a banshee with her white hospital gown flapping in the wind.

"I saw Rose!" she blurted out.

The Doctor froze, his hearts stopped at the sound of her name, his eye brows went inwards, and then his eyes got huge. "What!"

"Rose, I saw her…Well saw her again… I saw her before." She said tilting her head thinking about that day. "I told her to show my mum which bin I put the car keys in. I didn't know it at the time, but it was her… Or maybe not, it could've just been her mind. But either way it was her, then I just saw her now, she took my mind and left my body…we were on a beach, I thought it was a beach…it looked like a beach maybe my mind just saw a beach. .."

"Donna!" he shouted and grabbed her shoulders "Slow down" his hearts were pounding in his chest. "What are you talking about? Her mind what?" he asked still in shock from hearing her say she saw Rose. That's impossible he thought to himself.

Donna was trying to take deep breaths because she felt like her heart was going to burst right out of her body. "She said it was some alien technology or something, I don't know it lets people go inside each other's minds. I don't know how she was able to get into mine if we are different universes though" she said wondering why she didn't ask that. "She told me her name was Rose Tyler and you never told me her last name but obviously by your reaction, I got it correct."

"Donna, How…You couldn't have seen Rose "he said still holding on to her shoulders "Rose is gone, she's lost"

"Listen Spaceman!" she said pushing him a lightly with her finger "You took me places that I thought were impossible to reach, you told me something was impossible then when we saw that it wasn't and you don't believe me when I tell you I saw Rose Tyler…your Rose Tyler!" She paused to taking a deep breath. "She's not lost, she found me!" Donna said willing the Doctor to believe her, because Rose's warning scared her. "Doctor it was her, she said it's coming through the sky and nothing can stop it"

"Stop what?" He asked still shocked by everything coming out of her mouth. He was the one that knew everything before anyone else and now he's hearing about something from someone that he thought he had lost forever.

"I don't know, she said something that's going to destroy earth!" Donna said looking straight into his eyes "Doctor she said… she said she's coming home"

"What! Coming home how?" His hearts started pounding, his breathing increased.

"I don't know she didn't tell me that part, she's like you in that way"

He felt himself stepping backwards; he ran his hands across his face and through his hair. He turned away from her. He needed to think, he knew he said it was impossible for Rose to come back from her parallel world, but that was the thing about Rose she always made the impossible, possible.

She was released from the hospital; she still didn't know why she was there. She remembered the library and the Doctor teleporting her back to the Tardis, she remembered pain and then she was on a beach with Rose. She didn't ask him about it because he didn't talk to her the whole walk back to the Tardis. He was always going on about one thing and then another without taking a breath, he was never quiet and that scared her more than anything else they've been through.

Donna watched as the Doctor stared down at the Tardis console looking like he was having an argument with himself. The emotions on his face kept changing; his body seemed to be paralyzed into that position."Rose is returning… I don't know what's going on, but isn't that good?" she finally asked when she couldn't stand the silence anymore. Something bad was coming and nobody would tell her what.

The Doctor looked at her remembering that he wasn't alone, shook his head "Yeah" he smiled, he was too busy trying thinking about everything all at once that he didn't take the time to realize that Rose was coming back to him, she was coming home.

Tbc…
