A/N: Hi friends. This chapter might get a bit confusing. I hope not. We have both the 10th and 11th Doctors in the same scene. I really hope I did a good job of clarifying for you. Enjoy :D
Chapter 7
The Doctor steps off his TARDIS quickly and looks around. He goes to call out for Rose when he hears a gunshot in the distance. His eyes widen and he takes off running down the hall. He stops as he turns onto a hallway and sees River running out of a room. A younger man stops her then runs into the room she had come from. The Doctor follows him and gasps at the sight before him.
Rose is laying in the arms of a man. Her blood pooling around them.
"Rose," he says, running to her side. Rory looks over as he wraps his arms around Amy. The Doctor looks up from Rose's face to find his old self standing before them.
"You shouldn't be here," he says quietly. The other Doctor shrugs as he falls to his knees next to her. She looks up at him and smiles weakly.
"John?" She whispers, reaching for him. He takes her head and shakes his head.
"No...is that what he calls himself now?" He asks, stroking her hand with his thumb. Rose frowns and nods. She gasps and squeezes his hand. "You're in pain," he says, fighting the urge to cry. She shakes her head.
"I've been in worse," she tells him. The other Doctor looks up.
"Where's River with those medical supplies?!" He asks. Rory frowns and shrugs, gently shushing Amy. Rose looks at him and reaches up, touching his cheek.
"Shhh..." She says. He looks back at her. "You regenerated," she says. He nods and puts his hand over hers. "And you're in love," she says, smiling. He looks at her curiously. "River," she says. He smiles a little and shrugs. She smiles a little more then screams out in pain. "I wish John were here," she whispers.
"I am," John says, appearing the door. Both Doctors look over and sigh in relief when they see him. John walks over slowly then kneels down behind her. They gently lift her head and place it in his lap. He stifles a sob as he starts to stroke her hair. The Doctors rise to their feet and each take a step away. Rose reaches up and John takes her hand quickly.
"What are you doing here?" She asks quietly. He smiles at her softly.
"I had to come take care of you," he tells her. She nods slightly. He puts his other hand on her cheek. "I'm sorry I left," he says. She shakes her head.
"I forgive you," she whispers, her eyes starting to droop. John frowns and shakes his head.
"I love you, Rose," he says. He watches her, waiting for a reply. But she goes limp. He frowns more and shakes her slightly. "Rose? Rose, wake up!" He pleads. He starts to sob as he lays back against the wall. The Doctor in the bowtie looks around.
"Where's River?" He mumbles, leaving the room quickly. The other Doctor watches him go then looks at Amy and Rory. John kisses Rose's forehead gently as he lays her down. He looks up at the man and woman in the room with them.
"Who did this?" He asks, rising to his feet. "Who killed my wife?" He asks. Rory pulls Amy closer but she pushes away from him. She wipes at her eyes and looks down.
"It was me. I thought she was here to kill the Doctor," she says quietly. John stares at her then grabs the gun lying at his feet. He walks over and holds it directly at Amy.
A/N: Was it okay? Did it make sense? Do tell.
