Okay here's the final part of School Reunion and can I just say, I love this story however, the next episode will be Girl in the Fireplace and I'll tell you right off the bat that I hate that episode so much and I will not enjoy writing it at all and that unfortunately might come across as I write it, thankfully I've got another chapter after this one before I do that. I'll be doing that as quickly as I can so that I can get on to Rise of the Cybermen. I really want to finish this story before Christmas so that I can get back to one of my other ones, probably Series 3 with Rose as I have been neglecting it in favour of this one, infact, everything has been pushed to the side so that I can finish this. When this is complete, which will hopefully be by the 7th of December or the 10th at the latest, I hope, but then again, I'm at college the first three days of the week and then I'm at the shop for the rest of the week. I'll try to have it done by Christmas Eve at the Very latest. Anyway, on with the story.

They were trapped, Mr Finch or Brother Lassar and his Krillitane friends entered the canteen, blocking the only available escape route as all of the doors out of the school were locked

"Are they my teachers?" the boy who was with them asked

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

"We need the Doctor alive." said Finch "As for the others, you can feast." the Krillitanes attacked at they fought them off, as well as they could, but they weren't doing very well...Suddenly a laser beam shot one of them.

"K9!" said Sarah Jane.

"Suggest you engage running mode, mistress."

"Come on!" shouted the Doctor. They all ran from the canteen "K9, hold them back." he told the robot dog.

"Affirmative, master."

They ran to the Doctor's physics classroom and they closed and locked the door. They sat in the classroom while the Doctor tried to figure out what to do "It's the oil." he said eventually "Krillitane life forms can't handle the oil! That's it! They've changed their physiology so often, even their own oil is toxic to them. How much was there in the kitchens?"

"Barrels of it." answered Rose

The Krillitanes were now trying to get through the door "We need to get the kitchens. Mickey..."

"What now?" he asked "Hold the coats?"

"Get all of the children unplugged and out of the school." the Doctor told him "Now, then, bats, bats, bats. How do we fight bats?"

The boy who was with them turned on the fire alarm. The Doctor grinned and they exited the classroom and ran past the Krillitanes. They ran past the canteen "Master." said K9

"Come on, boy." said the Doctor "Good boy."

They continued to run and then they split up. Mickey ran to the classrooms to get the children out and the others ran to the kitchen. The Doctor tried to open the oil drums with the sonic screwdriver, but he couldn't. "They've been deadlock sealed. Finch must have done it. I can't open them."

"The vats would not withstand a direct hit from my laser, but my batteries are failing."

"Right everyone out the back door, K9 stay with me."

Rose and Sarah Jane ran out with the boy. The Doctor moved the oil drums "Capacity for only one shot, master." said K9 "For maximum impact, I must be stationed directly beside the vat."

"But you'll be trapped inside." said the Doctor

"That is correct."

"I can't let you do that." he told the dog.

"No alternative possible, master."

The Doctor heard the Krillitanes coming closer "Goodbye, old friend."

"Goodbye, master."

"You god dog."

"Affirmative."

The Doctor ran outside "Where's K9?" asked Sarah

"We need to run." the Doctor told her.

"Where is he?" she asked again "What have you done?" The Doctor grabbed her round the shoulders and ran. He took her hand as they ran to find Rose. They found her with Mickey and the student in the playground. The school blew up and all of the children cheered "I'm sorry." the Doctor said

"It's all right." she replied "He was just a daft metal dog. It's fine. Really." the Doctor gave her a hug as she cried for K9.

The Doctor, Rose and Sarah Jane walked away from the others. "Now, can you two please tell me what's going on?"

"We're married, Sarah." said Rose, who was then hugged by Sarah Jane.

"I thought there was something between you, but I wasn't expecting that." she said "How long?"

"Ohh, seven months."

"Yeah, 'cause we travelled together for six months before we got married and then six before you regenerated..."

"You stayed with him through a regeneration?"

"Yeah, you remember what happened on Christmas Day?"

"The Doctor had just regenerated and I tried to save the world myself-"

"She'd given up on me at that point."

"Anyway, in the end he saved the Earth and I realised that he was still the same man, just a little bit different."

Sarah Jane smiled "So, how did you meet him?" she asked as they walked back to the school.

"He saved me from the living plastic."

"The shop window dummies?"

"Yeah, he tried to destroy them by blowing up Henricks."

"Oh."

"He asked me to travel with him after that. I said no the first time he asked, 'cause I felt that I had to look after Mickey. He asked again, that time he remembered to mention that he could travel in time as well."

"She said yes the second time and ran into the Tardis." said the Doctor taking Rose's hand "When I met her, I'd only recently regenerated into my previous body and I was a little depressed, cause that was right after the Time War. She saved me from myself." he told Sarah Jane.

--

Later that day, when Rose and the Doctor were alone in the Tardis, the Doctor decided to build a new K9 for Sarah Jane. He made a start on it when Rose was making tea for them. She brought the cups through to the control room "What are you doing?" she asked as she handed him his.

"Building K9 again, well, K9 mark four to be exact."

She smiled at him "Maybe, Sarah Jane could come with us for a while?"

"We'd have to ask her." the Doctor said, as he stood up and joined her on the captain's chair.

"You know, my mum might just slap you if we don't go back to the flat for dinner."

"Why?"

"Cause, she'll have heard by now about the school and she knew that we were there, she might think that we're dead."

"Fine, we'll go back, but only so I can avoid a slap."

Rose laughed at him "Thank you." she said.

"Well, that goes to prove that I still can't say no to you." he replied before kissing her. He then set the coordinates for Jackie's flat and the Tardis dematerialised from the school and rematerialised in it's favourite spot in the Estate. The two of them exited the Tardis and headed to Jackie's flat.

--

After dinner, the Doctor excused himself and went down to the Tardis to finish K9. He finished at around midnight and saw no point in returning to the flat and waking up Rose and Jackie, so he remained in the Tardis until 2 o'clock in the morning, when Rose came into the Tardis, fully dressed

"You all right?"

"Yeah, jusy couldn't sleep." she told him as she sat down on the Captain's chair.

"Why don't you try sleeping in here." he suggested "And I don't mean in the control room."

Rose smiled and got up. She wandered the halls of the Tardis until she reached their bedroom. She got ready for bed and literally fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.

--

The next day, the Doctor landed the Tardis in a park near Sarah Jane's house and waited. They heard a knock on the door and the Doctor answered it, he stepped outside and saw Sarah Jane "Cup of tea?" he asked and moved out of the way so that she could enter the Tardis, then he followed and closed the door behind him

"You've redecorated." she said

"Do you like it?"

"Oh, I do." she answered "Yeah. I preferred it as it was, but it'll do."

"I love it." said Rose smiling at her

"Hey, you, whats 47 times 369?"

"No idea." Rose said "It's gone now, the oil's faded."

"But you're still clever." Sarah Jane told her "More than a match for him."

"You and me both." Rose agreed "Doctor?"

"Umm, we're about too head off, but you could come with us."

"No. I can't do this anymore." said Sarah "Besides, I've got a much bigger adventure ahead. Time I stopped waiting for you and found a life of my own."

"Can I come?" asked Mickey, finally ready to find out what all this fuss was about. "Not with you, I mean with you. 'Cause I'm not the tin dog and I wanna see what's out there."

"Oh, go on, Doctor." said Sarah Jane. "Sarah Jane Smith and Mickey Smith, you need a Smith onboard."

"Okay, then I could do with a laugh." the Doctor said and Rose rolled her eyes.

"Rose, is that okay?" he asked her

"No, great." she said, now slightly upset "Why not?"

"Well, I'd better go." said Sarah Jane. She hugged Rose and she left, followed by the Doctor "It's daft." she said "I haven't ever thanked you for that time and like I said, I wouldn't have missed it for the world."

"Something to tell the Grandkids."

"Oh, I think it'll be someone else's grandkids now."

"Right, yes sorry." the Doctor said "I didn't get a chance to ask..."

"No." she said "Goodbye, Doctor."

"Oh, it's not goodbye."

"You say it, please." she said "This time. Say it."

"Goodbye, Sarah Jane." he grinned and hugged her. He then went back into the Tardis and started it up. When the Tardis had disappeared, Sarah Jane turned round and found K9

"K9!"

"Mistress."

"But you were blown up." she said

"The master rebuilt me." said K9 "My systems are much improved with new omni-flexible hyperlink facilities."

"He replaced you with a brand-new model."

"Affirmative."

"Yeah." she said "He does that. Come on you, home. We've got work to do."

"Affirmative."

She walked away from where the Tardis had been, thinking that that was the last time she would ever see the Doctor and Rose.

Okay, and that's the final part of School Reunion, I'll be putting up the first part of Girl in the Fireplace soon. I really don't like that episode, but it has to be done. The next chapter will be a small filler, showing Rose's reaction to Mickey joining the Tardis.
