Chapter 2: In the TARDIS

Disclaimer- Nope, No Doctor Who for me. If I owned it? I'd have Christopher Eccleston for longer! David Tennat too and of Course would cuddle the Very Awesome Matt Smith! Sadly? I do not!

Authors Note- This contains a lot from the Parting of the Ways for a bit, but then cuts off from that. Still there are a few changes to it!

Everything was the same as she recalled it, the fear , the hope, the pain that she would be too late to save her Doctor. And now she was here again. The Doctor in front of her, speaking the words he spoke before once more…

"Rose, what have you done…" She could see the fear and pain in his eyes as he spoke and she yearned to reach out and comfort him. Instead she continued on the path that the Bad Wolf was telling her to follow, the same words coming out of her mouth as before….

"I looked into the TARDIS and the TARDIS looked into me." She spoke, listening as he spoke about how no one was to look into the TARDIS. The Emperor Dalek spoke and she put her hand up, stopping the beam from hitting her. She spoke once more, other words being moved into this spot as well, giving a hint to the Doctor that things were changing…

"I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself. I take the words... " Her hands lifted showing the Bad Wolf sign changing in front of them, showing how she had made things change. ".I scatter them, in time and space. A message, to lead myself here….to you My Doctor, from the Void and Beyond…For all time and space. "

The Doctor spoke again and her eyes rested on him for a moment, pain and confusion clearly showing for a moment. "Rose, you've got to stop this, you've got to stop this now! You've the entire vortex running through you're head, you're gonna burn!"

She looked at him once more, speaking again, showing how she felt at the moment. "I want you safe, my Doctor. Protected from the false God. I will protect you no matter what…"

The Emperor Dalek spoke again, how he was immortal and she turned, speaking once more, the ethereal quality still in her voice. "You are tiny. I can see the whole of time and space, every single atom of your existence, and I divide them. Everything must come to dust. All things, everything dies." Her eyes still glowed golden and she raised her hand as she ended the Time War finally… "The time war ends. I bring Life and I bring Death…" Her eyes started to lose the Golden Quality even as The Doctor stared at her in worry and confusion on the face she loved so much, had loved for a very long time…

"Rose, you've done it, now stop." As she heard those words from her Doctor, she felt the Bad Wolf let her have control finally and the power swirled up out of her in Golden form, going back to the TARDIS, as she tried to stay on her feet. She felt as if she was going to pass out at any moment, everything she'd gone through swirling around her mind, memories mixing, slight changes happening as she did so.

The Doctor rushed towards her, the confusion and worry written on his face as he grabbed her before she hit the ground. Gently he laid her on the ground, watching as a few more puffs of gold escaped Rose's lips. He gently stroked her cheek, looking at her with worry on his face.

He could hear Jack coming and honestly, that wasn't a worry. He could tell Jack was wrong, very wrong, a fixed point in time which was supposed to be impossible. Then again, Rose had just done more then the impossible and was alive it seemed.

Jack rounded the Corner, looking at Rose and The Doctor in shock and confusion as The Doctor picked Rose up. "Doctor, what happened? I was dead, and Rose was supposed to be gone."

"She looked into the heart of the TARDIS Jack, no one should be able to survive that, yet, she is alive…and she brought you back…"

Jack was asking more questions, but honestly, he couldn't answer them at the moment, more concerned with getting Rose into the TARDIS and figuring out what had happened as well as getting them off the Game station.

Once into the TARDIS, he quickly set the coordinates to get them into the Void and then turned, heading towards the Medical area, Rose still in his arms, making it difficult to do what he needed and instead he barked a few orders to Jack, who willingly listened, more worried about Rose being taken care of then being ordered about.

Once in the Medical area, Rose was laid on the cot in the room, his hand reaching out to lightly caress her face. "Oh Rose, what have you done you silly ape…" He couldn't help but say that, she'd risked everything to come back to him, giving her life for his, it almost came down to that, he didn't even know if it was still a possibility. She could have died for him. Why would she have done that. He wasnt worthy of devotion like that, of someone like his...

A shake of his head and he clenched his jaw, focusing on the task at hand, worried about Rose as she laid there silent and unmoving as he did medical scans. Nothing different was showing up at the moment, everything was showing she was in perfectly fine condition, if not healthier then before actually. She was starting to move on the cot then and he moved from his spot by her head to her side..

"What happened, there was a singing…bright light….a void? I…" She slowly sat up, running a hand over her face for a moment. She could have sworn that she'd been in a void, letting go of a lever and the Bad Wolf appeared, talking to her, but that didn't make any sense to her, none at all. She'd been on Earth, and worried about the Doctor. "I..don't know what happened….all I keep hearing are echos of Bad Wolf in my head…" Her brown eyes locked on the Doctor's blue ones, tears seeping out of her eyes… and suddenly she moved, wrapping her arms around him as if she hadn't seen him in years. "I thought I'd lost you….never see you again Doctor…"

He wrapped his arms around her then, cradling her to him as well, worried about her as well. He'd thought she was going to die when he'd seen the TARDIS doors open and her coming out surrounded by the Golden light of the Heart of The TARDIS.

She kept her arms wrapped around him, fighting tears back as glimpses of other battles, battles they hadn't had flashing through her head. None of it made sense, she kept hearing Bad Wolf and the Valiant Child would die in Battle, but she hadn't died, she was right here, pressed up against the Doctor's chest, hearing the steady thump of both his hearts as he held onto her.

"Rose, we won." He didn't answer the questions about everything yet, not understanding how she could have seen a void in the time she'd been gone, but more worried about the tears that had appeared in her eyes as she said she thought she'd lost him. "I'm right here Rose, I'm not going anywhere…"

She bit back more tears and shook her head. "But I see it, golden light…a different doctor…I don't understand what is going on…" She wrapped her arms around him tightly then, more images floating through her head of Dalek's and things called Cybermen and losing her face, none of it made sense, but before she could even say anything else, Jack came in.

"Rosie! You're alright…." He wrapped his arms around the other side of Rose then, uncaring that the Doctor had her wrapped up in his arms. A moment later and Rose was wrapping her arms around Jack, turning from the Doctor to hold onto Jack.

She bit back any tears she may have had, instead letting a smile slip out, tongue peeking out from her mouth. "Jack! I never thought I'd see you again!" One free hand moved from Jack, to grab the Doctor's hand so that he couldn't go far either.

Memories were still swirling about her head, but she could almost hear Bad Wolf telling her not to say anything, that the time wasn't right for it to be said, instead she should go home and worry about telling her Mother and Mickey that everything was alright. She needed time to process the memories, it'd take a bit of time, everything was different and she needed to readjust.

"Rose, I'm right here, I'm alive and better then ever." He pressed a kiss to her forehead then, trading concerned looks with the Doctor over Rose's behavior, but then she was letting them both go and standing up off the bed.

"I know…You are both alive. My boys!" She turned, hugging both of them again for a moment and then speaking again. "We should go back to London, my mother has to be worried sick…I just disappeared out of nowhere…"
