Okay, I'm back and it's been a week, this is the first update for today cause I've got the next few chapters typed. Now I'm not going to ramble in this one I'm just going to get on with it.
Evolution of a Relationship- Chapter 58- Age of Steel part 6
The Doctor led Rose and Pete out of the room, everything was exploding around them, but they continued to run. The Doctor opened a door and saw that it was blocked by Cybermen, so they couldn't get out that way.
"There's no way out." he said
--
In the zeppelin Jake was trying to get them away from the building before it exploded "What are you doing?" Mickey asked
"We've got to get away." he answered "If that factory blows up, this balloon's gonna ignite."
"Take it back!" Mickey demanded
"Mickey, they've had it." Jake said
"I said take it back!" Mickey repeated "We're not leaving them behind. There's no way we're leaving them behind." While he had been talking Mickey had been fighting for control of the zeppelin, which he finally got. He took out his phone and dialled Rose's number. He handed the phone to Jake "Hold it." he said
--
Rose's phone rang and she answered it "Rose? Rose, can you hear me? Head for the roof."
Rose turned to the Doctor. "It's Mickey." she said "He says head for the roof." She, the Doctor and Pete ran towards the stairs as things continued to explode all around them.
--
Rose climbed the final ladder that would take her onto the roof. The Doctor and Pete followed her and they ran across the roof. They stopped suddenly when the saw the Zeppelin "Mickey, where did you learn to fly that thing?" she asked over the phone and she was slightly worried when she heard his answer
"PlayStation."
he answered"Just hold on, Rose. I'm coming to get you."
They ran towards the zeppelin. Rose put her mobile back in her pocket and when they reached the Zeppelin, there was a ladder. "You've got to be kidding." said Pete.
The Doctor grabbed the rope ladder. "Rose, get on!" Rose started to climb and the Doctor helped her get up. The Doctor followed her, then Pete. The zeppelin then took off as the Doctor reached Rose. "We did it!" she said "Mickey did it!"
They began to climb again, so that they could get inside.
--
Further down the ladder Pete was having difficulty, the Cyber Controller was at his heels and his weight was causing problems for the Doctor and Rose up above. Pete sped up and was within touching distance of the Doctor very quickly. The Doctor reached into his inside pocket and pulled out the sonic screwdriver.
"Pete!" he shouted "Take this!" He dropped the sonic screwdriver and Pete caught it "Use it!" he yelled "Hold the button down. Press it against the rope. Just do it!"
Pete did as he was asked "Jackie Tyler." he said "This is for her."
Suddenly the ladder snapped and the Cyber Controller fell.
--
They arrived back at the Tardis and the Doctor went inside to restore the Tardis to it's former state, he placed the little light thing on the console and the Tardis powered up, causing him to grin.
--
Rose walked along with Pete "So what happens inside that thing, then?" Pete asked her
"Do you want to see?" Rose asked
"I don't think so." Pete replied "But you two, you know, all that stuff you said about different worlds. Who are you?"
"It's like you said." Rose answered "Imagine there are different worlds. Parallel worlds. Worlds with another Pete Tyler and Jackie Tyler is still alive. And their daughter."
"I've got to go."
"But if you just look inside…"
"I can't." Pete said "There's all those Lumic factories out there, all those Cybermen still in storage. Someone's got to tell the authorities what happened. Carry on the fight." The Doctor chose that moment to exit the Tardis
"Rose." he said "I've only got five minutes of power." he told her as he joined them. "We've got to go."
"The Doctor could show you how." Rose told Pete
"Thank you for everything." Pete said
"Dad…"
"Don't." said Pete "Just don't." he walked away.
Mickey appeared then as well with Jake, he was carrying a pile of clothes. "Here it is." he said "I found it. Not a crease."
The Doctor took it "My suit." he said "Good man. Now then, Jake, we've got to run, but one more thing. Mrs Moore, her real name was Angela Price. She's got a husband out there and children. Find them. Tell them how she died saving the world."
"Yeah, course I will." said Jake
"Off we go, then." the Doctor said to Rose and Mickey
"Erm…" said Mickey "Thing is, I'm staying."
"You're doing what?" the Doctor asked
"You can't." said Rose
"It sort of balances out 'cause this world lost its Ricky, but there's me." he said "And there's work to be done with all those Cybermen still out there."
"But you can't stay." said Rose
"Rose, my Gran's here." he told her "She's still alive. My old Gran, remember her?"
"Yeah."
"She needs me."
"What about me?" Rose asked, despite the fact that she was no longer in a relationship with him, she loved him like a brother and might need him sometimes "What if I need you?"
"Yeah, but Rose, you don't." Mickey said "It's just you and him, isn't it? We had something a long time ago, but not anymore."
"Well, we'll come back." she said "We can travel anywhere, we'll come and see you, yeah."
"We can't." the Doctor said "I told you, travel between parallel worlds is impossible. We only got here by accident. We fell through a crack in time, when we leave, I've got to close it. We can't ever return."
"Doctor." said Mickey, holding out his hand for the Doctor to shake. The Doctor took his hand and shook it.
"Take Rose's phone." he said "It's got the code. Get it out there. Stop those factories. Good luck. Mickey the idiot." he tapped Mickey's cheek
"Watch it." Mickey said with a small smile on his face. The Doctor went back to the Tardis. Mickey turned to Rose and she gave him the phone. "Thanks. We've had a laugh, though, haven't we? Seen it all, been there and back. Who'd have thought, me and you, off that old estate, flying through the stars."
"All those years, just sitting there…imagining what we'd do one day." she said, starting to cry "We never saw this, did we?"
She hugged him, after a few moments he said "Go on. Don't miss your flight."
She let him go a few moments later and headed into the Tardis, not looking back until she reached the doors, she went inside and closed the door behind her.
"Jake, you want to watch this." Mickey said as the Tardis engines started and the ship began to dematerialise
"What the hell?" asked Jake.
"That's the Doctor in the Tardis." Mickey answered "With Rose Tyler."
They watched as the Tardis disappeared and headed for their van.
Okay, that's this chapter, the next one will be up pronto.
