He turned to Rose and looked at her apologetic for a brief second before he grabbed her hand and then threw the door open hard and fast at the cybermen. He pulled her out and ran as quickly as he could back towards the lounge to the set of stairs he had seen. She wrenched her hand loose from his and ran ahead of him.
"Delete, Delete." He heard the Cybermen say behind him and he flung open the nearest door open to try to slow them down. He heard it explode behind him and Rose gave a frightened squeal as they hurried faster.
"Come on up the stairs," He said to Rose. They ran up the stairs and to the next hallway taking them further away from the cybermen but also the Tardis. He could still hear the sound of metal feet behind them and kept running down the halls and up stairs until finally he stopped and tried to figure out where they were.
"Rose, look for a computer, a screen, anything." He said looking around.
"Over here," She called out a few minutes later and he rushed over to her, pulling out his sonic. He inadvertently put her between him and the screen and she let out a small squeak. Annoyance crossed his face and he stepped back to let her move before going back to the screen.
"This has to stop." He told her as he started scanning for information.
"I'm tying." She replied.
"Didn't feel like it." He grumbled. He still felt slightly sick.
"You scared me." She told him crossing her arms.
"Aha," He said excitedly and she jumped. "If we loop around we can get to the crew passage ways which will lead us directly back to the Tardis. Only problem is that there are two people alive on the floor above us and the cybermen are heading that direction."
He grabbed his hair. "Think, think, think." He said to himself.
"We can't leave them."
He turned to look at Rose. "No we can't. You're going to have to go after them."
"What by myself?"
"It's easy," He walked over to the screen and soniced a map up. "Just go up the next flight of stairs. They should be about here." He pointed to a room on the map. "Then just head as quickly as you can back down the stairs and through the crew quarters back to the Tardis."
"What are you going to be doing?"
"I'm going to provide a distraction." Before she could stop him, he grabbed her head, kissed it and then ran out the door. He could see the Cybermen ahead of him, they were heading towards the stairs.
"Hey," He screamed and then picked up the nearest thing to him and threw it at them. They stopped and turned to look at him. "Come on, catch me." He called and took off running. He ran slower then he wanted to making sure they could always see where he was going but staying far ahead of them as he led them away from the Tardis and the people above him. His foot caught on the edge of the carpet and he fell hard. Getting up but limping slightly he hurried on his way, dodging as a red laser blew up the table next to him.
How he made it to the top deck, he wasn't quite sure but as he emerged from the stairs he was briefly awestruck by the sight of the planet below in front of the twin suns. The floor was open to the sky and only a force field kept him safe on this level of the ship. He ducked around the corner and into a small room, where he found another screen. He quickly soniced it and found two life forms down by the Tardis and a third heading up the stairs. He suddenly had an idea but he was going to have to work quickly. He soniced the screen bringing up the defenses on the ship. He brought up the one controlling the force field and began to hack into it. He heard the Cybermen getting closer, right as he managed to get through. Taking a deep breath, he apologized silently to Rose and waited.
