Hi! Hope you like this one. Please let me know what you think, especially if the Doctor seems 9ish enough. Thanks!
Rose Tyler was running. She ran as ran as she could but it wasn't going to be fast enough. Those chasing her were faster. Of course they were faster, they did each have twice as many legs as she did.
"Rose!" She heard his voice calling out for her; encouraging her and pulling her forward but it still wasn't enough. Rose could feel their boiling hot breath on her back and it sent chills of fear through her, causing her to stumble.
"This is it. This is the end for me. Didn't expect it but I guess I should have." She thought, miserably listening to his voice still calling out to her. He was so loud, the sound practically echoed through her and she wondered for a moment if the voice actually came from inside of her and he wasn't there after all. Then she felt his hand grasping hers tightly and the relief made her almost as weak as the fear.
"I've got you. Just run and don't let go." He told her. The hyena like creatures howled with laughter and nipped at her heels but Rose wasn't afraid anymore. She was with the Doctor.
Before she knew it they were running into the TARDIS and Rose collapsed on the floor with a stitch in her side and gasping for breath. The Doctor seemed as calm as if he'd just been out for a stroll. Well, he was calm except for the laughter.
"What're you laughin' about? That was terrifying!" Rose asked as soon as she could speak.
"I'm laughin at the jokes of course." He explained with another chuckle.
Rose pulled herself up to lean against the nearby railing. "What? What jokes?"
"The jokes the hyena things were telling. What did you think they were laughin' for?" The Doctor asked, grinning and nudging her shoulder.
Rose groaned, "Only you. Only you would laugh along with the comedy act some monster's puttin on while they planned on making me into roasted Rose."
The Doctor shrugged. "They were funny."
