Okay, umm... Here's part three of five I think anyway, this is one of my favourite episodes and I love the next one, "Yes, delete, control, hash, all those lovely buttons and then of course my particular favourite, send." That is why I love the next one. Anyway, enough of me rambling on, here's the next chapter, enjoy.

Rose was still on her own, so she did an internet search on her father.

The Doctor and Mickey were watching the little light thing "It's going out." Mickey said "Is that okay?"

"It's on a recharging cycle." the Doctor said "It'll loop round, power back up and be ready to take us home in 24 hours."

"So that gives us 24 hours on a parallel world?" he asked

"Shore leave." the Doctor said "So long as we keep our heads down, easy, no problem. Let's go and tell her."

They left the Tardis in search of the woman in question, but she wasn't outside the Tardis as they expected so they looked for her "There you are!" the Doctor said as they found her "It's all right, no applause, I fixed it. 24 hours and then we're flying back to reality." He sat down on her left and looked up at her when she didn't answer "What is it?"

"My phone connected." she said "There's this Cybus network. It finds your phone. It gave me internet access."

"Rose, whatever it says, this is the wrong world."

"I don't exist." she said

"What do you mean?" he asked

"There's no Rose Tyler." she replied "I was never born. There's Pete, my dad, and Jackie. He still married Mum but they never had kids."

"Give me that phone." the Doctor said

"They're rich." Rose continued "They've got a house and care and everything they want. But they haven't got me." she got up and walked away and then turned round. "I've got to see them." she said

"You can't."

"I just want to see them."

"I can't let you."

"You just said 24 hours."

"You can't become their daughter." the Doctor said "That's not the way it works. Mickey, tell her."

"24 hours, yeah?" Mickey stood up and went in the opposite direction

"Where are you going?" the Doctor asked

"Well, I can do what I want."

"I've got the address and everything." Rose said

"Stay where you are!" the Doctor said "Both of you! Rose, come back! Mickey come back here! Right now!"

"I just want to see them." Rose said

"Yeah, I've got things to see and all." Mickey said

"Like what?"

"You don't know anything about me, do you?"Mickey asked "It's always about Rose. I'm just a spare part."

"I'm sorry, I've got to go."

The Doctor looked between them "Go on, then." Mickey told him "There's no choice, is there? You can only chase after one of us and it's never gonna be me, is it?" Rose walked off the Doctor said "Back here. 24 hours."

The Doctor ran after Rose. When he caught up with her, she was sitting on another bench "You know, I just realised something." she said

"What's that?"

"This universe's you is alone, he hasn't got me."

"I'm not."

"What?"

"I didn't explain the Time Lords did I?"

"No."

"This universe's me is me." he told her "There are no parallel worlds with Time Lords, even if it was me, I'd know up here." he pointed to his head as he said this

Rose smiled, he hugged her

"You know we can't go see them, don't you?"

"Yeah." she said as she stood up, she held out her hand which he took when he stood up

The Doctor and Rose walked along a street hand in hand "So, tell me about our resident idiot, then." he said

Rose obliged, telling him what she could "His mum just couldn't cope. His dad hung around for a while, but then he just sort of wandered off. He was brought up by his gran." she said "She was such a great woman. God, she used to slap him! But then she died. She tripped and fell down the stairs. It was about five years ago now. I was still in school."

"I never knew." the Doctor said

"Well, you never asked." she said

"You never said."

"That's Mickey." she said "I suppose...we just take him for granted. Do you think she's still alive?" she asked "His gran?"

"Could be." the Doctor answered "Like I said, parallel world, gingerbread house. We need to get out of here as fast as we can." everyone in the street stopped moving at the same time, they just sort of stopped

"What are they all doing?" Rose asked

"They've stopped." the Doctor replied he looked at them, all of them were wearing ear pieces. He took a close look at one "It's the ear pieces. Like Bluetooth attachments but everyone's connected together." Rose's phone went and she answered it

"It's on my phone." she said "It's automatic. Look, it's downloading." The Doctor looked at the phone "Is this what they're all getting?"

The Doctor took out his glasses and put them on and looked at the phone again "News, international news, sport, weather." Rose said as she looked through the list

"They get it direct." the Doctor said "Downloaded right into their heads."

"TV schedules, lottery numbers."

"Everyone shares the same information." said the Doctor. He looked at the phone "Daily download, published by Cybus Industries." The word joke appeared on the screen and everyone around them laughed and they began walking again. The Doctor and Rose shared a confused look and then he said "You lot, you're obsessed. You'll do anything for the latest upgrade."

"Oi, they're not my lot." Rose said "Different world, remember?"

"It's not so far off your world." he said "This place is only parallel." he was doing something on her phone "Oh, look at that. Cybus Industries, owners of just about every company in Britain, including Vitex. Mr Pete Tyler's very well connected."

Rose adopted the look, (the one that she'd learnt very quickly) that he couldn't refused "Okay, I give up." he said "Let's go and see him." He gave her her phone back and they headed for the Tyler's

Okay, there we go, chapter 51 complete. 52 will be up soon
