Disobedience

Here we go guys the next chapter i hope you like it and please review.

Rose had no idea how long she had been stuck in this small cellar. It felt like months since she had felt daylight and the warmth of the sun on her face, the freedom of being able to look for the Doctor, but in reality it must have been nothing than a day or two.

At this moment she was sitting with her back against the cold concrete wall, her head resting on it while her eyes were closed. Her legs were lying out in front of her while she tried to push past the pain which had been inflicted on her ever weary body. Not a space of her skin was left undamaged. Bruises littered her body, marks where the Master had hit her, knife wounds embedded into her skin. Her ankles were swollen and had deep cuts imbedded in the damaged skin where her manacles pressed too deeply in her skin. Scratches and bruises littering her legs as the Master threw glass at her, cut her skin and wacked her to the ground.

She was weak, beaten and terribly cold. Rose had nothing to keep her warm apart from the leather Jacket Jack had given her. The cold air biting at her skin as she sat in the cold cellar. If she could see she knew she would be able to see her breath in front of her. The cold air burned her weak lungs, making the deep wounds on her chest ache and burn with furiosity causing Rose's discomfort to increase. She was hungry, never one been given any food or drink. Her stomach was tying knots on itself when ever the thought of food was brought to her mind. Her limbs shaking slightly from the lack of water. She had no energy, so weak to even be able to lift her head, her chest heaving as she brought into her lungs. Even that simple job was causing her a considerable amount of discomfort.

But Rose felt delighted about what was happening. More and more the Master was getting frustrated with her disobedience. He continued to beat her when she remained silent, hitting her around the face when she refused to give him information about her husband. He was angry at her, she could see it. His frustration and anger he was feeling was present in his eyes. The fact she was not being forthcoming, preventing images to pop up into her head, being so difficult to relent and give him something to go on was so frustrating to him. The huge knife wound that travelled from her left shoulder down to her right hip was due to this. She had been bleeding profusely until someone came to help her. She had lost a lot of blood and she feared she would die. But even now she was struggling to get her cells to multiply, and to replace the blood she had lost.

So that was how she found herself being dragged toward the Master once again. Her legs were refusing to move so she was being dragged. Her torso was heavy and was flopped over the guards, her head falling to the ground while her eyes were closed. She was forced onto the chair once again and the bonds around her ankles and wrists were strapped tightly to her wrists. She gasped out in pain as the ropes burned and itched her painfully healing bruises and cuts on her ankles. She slowly brought up her heavy torso and leant back on the chair. She flung her long hair over her shoulder and slowly opened her eyes. She looked up to see the Master was standing very close in front of her. His hands behind his back and his eyes hard. Anger already present in them as he realised just how little he had gotten from her mind. Rose smiled slightly which just made the anger in the Masters eyes flare to such passion she resisted the instinct of flinching back.

Rose was trying to readjust the ropes on her ankles and wrists which were tied behind her back. They were pinching her wounded skin causing her some discomfort. She wriggled her wrists but unfortunately they were tied so tight to her skin she could not move the ropes an inch; they just got tighter and tighter.

"Well Ms Tyler... are you going to be a little more forthcoming?" The Master snapped slightly. Rose simply stopped what she was doing and looked up at him. She didn't say anything. She didn't do anything. She just looked up at him. The Master simply sighed angrily and started to walk over to her. Rose knew what was coming before it even happened. The Master raised his hand and the back of his palm connected with Rose's check causing it to sting and for her head to fling back slightly, the ropes cutting into her wrists.

"I will take it by force." The Master started. "After all, I'm sure even you would break eventually. You will be screaming out every one of the Doctor's secrets to me begging me to stop the pain" He snarled into Rose's ears as he began to circle her on the chair, Rose simply looked straight ahead. "But maybe the reason you are not giving me the answers I want is because you don't care what happens to you" The Master finally said. A huge smile spread over his face as he realised what he had just said and before Rose knew it the Master was leaning right into her face. His eyes flickering all over the place as he looked right into her eyes.

"Maybe if I found the Doctor and started torturing him in front of me you would finally blurt out everything, causing his downfall" The Master smiled, his teeth leaning on his bottom lip. Eyes still searching hers. But when the Master got nothing from her he simply sighed, looked down shaking his head before he stood up and walked away from her, obviously angry.

"Why do you not talk? You disappoint me! Sure you're able to suck in the time vortex and save your husband but when it comes to answering a simple question you're useless!" The Master cried exasperated, his arms waving in front of him. Rose still just looked at him.

"Very well, ill guess we should just do it the hard way" The Master muttered before taking a few steps towards Rose and placing his hands to her forehead. She flinched back slightly when she found herself swimming in bright white light as the Master searched her memories.

She finally found herself in what looked like to be a hospital. Big white walls, bed littering the side of the rooms. That's when she realised she was looking on at the memories of New Earth. Cassandra had taken over her body and had used it to get to the Doctor as well as the cat nurses. She could see herself flinching back in agony as a pink mist escaped from the protection of her own body and into the young man she knew as chip. Rose could see herself falling forward with a gasp, her eyes closed and her limbs looked heavy. The Doctor was running a hand through his hair before he noticed her other self falling. He lunged forward and caught Rose neatly in his arms. Rose's arms were placed on his shoulders by his neck while his were around her waist.

"Oh! You all right?" The Doctor asked down to Rose. Her face looking right down at the ground as her eyes and mind was foggy, her grip on her husband increasing. There was a slight pause and she finally lost her balance again, her body falling to the ground.

"Whoa! Okay?" The Doctor asked again. His eyes boring concerned into her eyes and she finally looked up at him again. Her eyes became focused and she brought in her lungful of air to see her husband was smiling down at her, his body pressed close to hers as he clung onto her unbalanced body.

"Yeah-" She managed to say as she finally found her bearings and gathered herself. Marvelling at the fact that she was staring right at the Doctor. Her face lit up with a smile as she looked up at him

"Hello!" She cried happily, the Doctor's face also formed into a beautiful smile

"Hello, Welcome back" He stated before placing a very delicate kiss to her lips.

Rose suddenly forced the Master's mind away from that memory just for him to find another that interested him. She found herself emerged in the memory of her in Scotland running from a werewolf.

Rose and The Doctor had been trapped in a room with Queen Victoria and Sir Robert. Mistletoe had been the element to block the werewolf but this memory occurred when they had just barricaded the doors from the wolf. Rose could see and remember her shaking form as the nervousness coursed around her body. The Doctor had just stepped back from the pile of furniture while Rose was standing back slightly.

"I'll tell you what, thought..." Rose stated, breaking the silence, the Doctor turning around to look at her

"What?" He asked, a frown on his face

"Werewolf..." Rose smiled, letting out the air in her lungs from nerves

"I know" The Doctor stated in a high pitched voice, his face turning into a smile while rose let out a small half laugh and threw her arms around him

"You alright?" The Doctor asked once he pulled away holding Rose in his arms at arms length, she simply nodded

"I'm okay, yeah!" She stated a smile on her lips. The Doctor nodded before bringing her forward and pressing his lips to hers.

But Rose's images shifted against her will so she was face to face with Sarah Jane Smith. A previous companion and a woman who had threatened Rose's existence and had made her question her life and travels with the Doctor.

Rose found herself emerging from a the chip shop she had been in with Sarah Jane, Mickey and her husband but her heart was heavy. She was struggling to keep the tears from falling whenever she thought about it. Thinking about being abandoned, thinking about not having the Doctor at her side. If The Doctor was just going to leave her why the hell was he so determined for their marriage to work?

"How many of us have there been, travelling with you?" Rose asked as she followed her husband who was holding a frown on his face

"Does it matter?" The Doctor asked over his shoulder slightly

"Yeah, it does, if I'm just the latest in a long line" Rose snapped her voice trembling slightly, not wanting to get into an argument but knowing that was unpreventable.

"As opposed to what?" The Doctor asked stopping and turning to look at Rose. His eyes holding so much hurt and pain.

"I thought you and me were..." Rose said, shrugging her shoulders slightly "But I obviously got it wrong. I've been to the year five billion, right, but this... now this is really seeing the future. You just leave us behind. Is that what you're going to do to me?" Rose asked, her eyes watering and a single tear travelled down her cheek, the Doctor simply looked down before looking up at his Wife. Rose and her insecurities were rising to the surface. Her fear of being left by the Doctor or being pulled from his side. The Doctor was her life and ever having to be apart from him was unthinkable. Something Rose knew the Master would pick up on.

"No not to you" The Doctor said abruptly his eyes snapping to her which were filled with sadness.

"But Sarah Jane..." Rose stated motioning towards his old friend trailing off slightly "You were that close to her once, and now... you never even mention her. Why not?"

"I don't age. I regenerate. But humans decay. You wither and you die. Imagine watching that happen to someone you love" The Doctor managed to say. Rose simply took another step forward before stopping short slightly.

"You can spend the rest of your life with me" he said as Rose looked up at him, her eyes shinning with unshed tears "But I can't spend the rest of mine with you. I have to live on. Alone. That's the curse of the time lords" The Doctors eyes were sad and his voice full of pain as he looked up at her. But the Doctor could see how much this was hurting her, how much she was worried as he knew about her insecurities and with two simple steps he was holding her in his arms comforting her as her tears were finally falling.

But again Rose found her memories shifting to the time when she found herself in the presence of the devil. Krop Torr. The Black hole planet. They had lost the TARDIS and they had lost everything with one swift move of this terrifying planet. The Doctor and Rose were leaning on the panel in the control room. Rose was looking up to the sky while the Doctor was looking around his surroundings, his hands crossed over his chest.

"I've trapped you here" The Doctor said sadly, but Rose simply shook her head.

"No don't worry about me" Rose said gently, pressing her hand slightly to the top of his arm that was crossed over each other. She then looked up towards the black hole through the window

"Okay, we're on a planet that shouldn't exist, under a black hole... and no way out" Rose said while looking up through the window. The Doctor managed to look at her and she caught his eye.

"Yeah, I've changed my mind. Start worrying about me" Rose stated as she begun to laugh nervously. The Doctor pulled her into a tight hug, wrapping his hands around her shoulders, pressing her small form to his as he tried to comfort her.

But Rose was panicking. The Master was shifting so much information from her memories she was beginning to worry. She began to push her mind forward, trying to propel her mind away from the Master's hold. Her concentration was evident in her features as she strained herself into pushing the other time lord from her mind. She feared he had found out a great many things. She could feel his hold on her begin to weaken and with an extra large push he staggered from the place

"That's enough!" Rose snapped as she finally achieved the thing she wanted too. The Master still hadn't said anything but had a look of wonder and realization on his face as he turned around to face Rose.

"Oh but this is perfect!" The Master laughed happily, a huge smile on his face. "You're the missing piece" the Master continued as he continued to talk to Rose, his hand held out slightly. "Now I understand why you don't care about what happens to you. You love the Doctor and would die to protect him, while he would do the same to you" The Master concluded. Pacing around the room as his mind racked with so many questions. Rose hated to admit it but he reminded her of the Doctor.

"You mean more to the Doctor than life itself. I've been searching for his weakness... and I've got it right in front of me" He smiled evilly as he turned to look at Rose. Everything had gone cold in her body. She was frozen in shock as she realised what he just said.

"Oh but their is something different about you" The master commented as he once again moved straight into her face, while Rose moved her face away from him. "You're more Time Lady than a human. The Vortex has been changing you more than you realise. NO wonder I was stumped at how a human can be telepathic. You can sense time; it flows through your body and your mind. You have the knowledge of my people. Oh the Doctor must be so proud that you have continued the studies he had mapped out for you. You can feel the planets shift underneath your feet, pick up history quicker and you can sense my presence even now" The Master rambled. But everything he said was true. These were the gifts BAD WOLF had given her. The Master was still smiling into her face. "Oh but the Doctor gave you something else didn't he. When these abilities started showing you wanted more from your husband. Which for you was great, but for me it is a problem. I can't have you calling out for him now can I" The Master smiled. He finally pulled away and walked over to his desk. He picked up something in his hand which was like a small staple gun. He moved it around his hands and walked back over to Rose. He pulled out her arm, which at the moment was difficult due to the jerky movements of her tied hands. But suddenly a sharp stabbing pain exploded up her arm as he embedded the thing into her skin. She cried out in pain as the red in her eyes started to disappear and she looked up at the Master. She glared at him while he placed the object back on the desk. Rose could feel her blood slowly fall down her thumb and over her hand as it dripped down her hand.

"Oh come now Rosie... you don't have to be so hostile" The Master muttered as he came to stand in front of her.

"I will be less hostile when you let me go" Rose stated confidently

"But I need you... your key to my plan" The Master said happily, his hands being placed over each other.

"What plan? You don't need me anymore, you've got what you wanted" Rose argued again, struggling against her bonds once again, her hand becoming slick with her own blood.

"Oh come on Rose. You must know me better than that by now" He cooed slightly, cocking his head o the left as he spoke.

"I have enough information to know that whatever you're planning is not going to be good for the human race" Rose said aloud. The Master simply turned his lips down and nodded his head from side to side

"You half right..." he started "But use that Time Lady mind of yours. How can I get the Doctor in my hands? How can I get my revenge?" He asked making this tense situation light. A key strength of the Doctors. But Rose knew what he was saying. He wanted Rose to lure the Doctor to him. To use Rose as bait and blackmail to have the Time Lord begging for him to let her go, to take him in her place.

"Well you must know that he won't go down without a fight" Rose shouted at the Master, leaning as far forward as she could, anger and frustration boiling in her chest. The Master strode over to Rose and slapped her across the face. Once Rose had caught her self again she spat the blood which had formed in her mouth due to her biting down on her gums. But the Master was smiling. Not ever needing to have a reason to hurt her.

"Well then Ms Tyler. Once I'm done with him... he wont be able to do anything at all" The Master whispered in her ear. He smiled before placing a kiss to her head, which she naturally pulled away from. He walked from the room leaving Rose tied to the chair; thinking about how to help the Doctor.
