Well, here we go with Parting of the Ways. This will be in five parts as well as I want to maked this story longer and separating Christopher Eccleston's last episodes into parts was the best way to go as that will leave me with 22 chapters worth of Christopher Eccleston material compared to the 19 that I would have had if I had done the episodes as one chapter each. Anyway lets get on with this before I start rambling and never get to writing this chapter as I want to get this episode done so that I can do my favourite of all time "The Christmas Invasion" (And yes that's cause David Tennant is the Doctor, but only cause he's soo funny and I love that regeneration to bits.) Anyway here's Parting of the Ways part one.

"You know the Doctor. You understand him. You will predict his actions."

"I don't know!" said Rose "And even if I did I wouldn't tell you."

"Predict! Predict! Predict!"

"Tardis decteced in flight."

"Launch missiles! EXTERMINATE!"

"You can't!" Rose shouted "The Tardis hasn't got any defences. You're gonna kill him." She was worried now, she just wanted to be back in the Tardis with the Doctor where there were no Daleks and where he was save. She was disgusted when a Dalek said

"You have predicted correctly."

--

The Doctor and Jack were in the Tardis, flying towards the Dalek Fleet, Jack had reconnected the Extrapolator and they were using it. "We've got incoming!" Jack said.

The lights dimmed. "The extrapolator's working." Jack said "We've got a fully functional force-field. Try saying that when you're drunk."

"And for my next trick." said the Doctor.

--

Rose could feel a breeze all around her, the Daleks were looking around for the source of the noise that accompanied the wind, Rose turned around as the Tardis began to materialise around her and a Dalek. Once they were inside the Tardis the Doctor shouted "Rose, get down!" She just stared at him "Get down, Rose!" She did as she asked, just in time as the Dalek began to try to exterminate the Doctor and Jack. Jack shot the Dalek and it blew up.

Rose got up and came out from behind the support that she was hiding behind. "You did it." she said to Jack.

The Doctor walked over to her and pulled her into a hug. "Feel's like I haven't seen you in years." she said as she tightened her arms around his shoulders.

"I told you I'd come and get you."

"Never doubted you."

"I did." the Doctor said "I'm sorry."

"Not your fault." Rose said as she pulled back a little and kissed him.

"You alright?" he asked when he pulled back

"Yeah." Rose answered "And you?"

"Not bad." the Doctor replied "Been better."

Jack walked over to the two of them "Don't I get a hug?"

"Oh, come here." Rose said

"I was talking to him." Jack said cheekily "Welcome home." he hugged the girl who had become like his little sister in the last seven months that he had known her.

"Oh!" Rose said "I thought I'd never see you again."

"You were lucky, that was just a one shot wonder." Jack said "Drained the gun of all it's power supply. Now it's just a piece of junk."

--

"You said they were extinct." Rose said to her husband "How come they're still alive?"

"One minute they're the biggest threat in the universe, the next minute they vanished out of time and space." Jack said

"They went off to fight a bigger war." said the Doctor "The Time War."

"I thought that was just a legend." Jack said

"I was there." said the Doctor "The war between the Daleks and the Time Lords, with the whole of creation at stake. My people were destroyed but they took the Daleks with them. I almost thought it was worth it. And now it turns out they died for nothing."

"There's thouands of them now." Rose said "We could hardly stop one. What are we gonna do?"

"No good standing round here chinwagging." the Doctor said "Human race, you'd gossip all day." Jack grinned "The Daleks have got the answers. Let's go meet the neighbours."

"You can't go out there!" Rose shouted, trying to keep her husband alive.

The Doctor opened the door and poked his head out.

"EXTERMINATE!"

"EXTERMINATE!"

The Doctor stood in the middle of the Daleks not far away from the Tardis door. The Daleks tried to exterminate him, but their laser beams hit something.

"Is that it?" the Doctor asked "Useless. Nul points!" he turned to Rose and Jack "It's all right, come on out." he told them "That force-field can hold back anything."

"Almost anything." Jack corrected.

"Yes, but I wasn't going to tell them that." the Doctor said "Thanks."

"Sorry." said Jack

The Doctor turned back to the Daleks. "Do you know what they call me in the ancient legends of the Dalek homeworld?" he asked "The Oncoming Storm. You might have removed all your emotions, but I reckon right down deep in you DNA, there's one little spark left. And that's fear. Doesn't it just burn when you face me? So tell me, how did you survive the Time War?"

"They survived through me."

Well that's it for part one of The Parting of the Ways. I'll be putting up the next part soon as I seem to type faster when I'm listening to AC/DC and Status Quo. I know I'm sad, it's imprinting, my Dad listened to them all the time when I was little and he still does now and anyway they're great head banging songs. I'll go now before I start rambling, like I did in chapter 25 of Series 3 with Rose, to see what I mean I suggest you read the author's note at the bottom of that.
