So my plan is for the Doctor to take Abi with him and Martha, travel for a bit, have their original adventure and some from the series until the Master and Jack return. I want Martha and Abi to become good friends because I think the whole crush on the Doctor was annoying and pointless, I mean, to be honest, the Doctor can be an idiot sometimes (oh who am I kidding, he's an idiot all of the time) but we love him. Anyways in this chapter I want to show more about Abi's time lord qualities and what she did before and during the Time War, this will become important when we see the Master.

Abi was in the simulator, she dived to avoid the Cyberman's grip, cursing at the cut she got, she got up and dodged its second grasp, once she got behind it she slid onto the floor and swiped its legs causing it to topple down. She shot it through the head and stepped back panting, it disappeared. She sighed, slightly relived that she was alone because she hadn't cried, not yet, since Jack got taken, not one tear drop fell after that day and she was worried that one day it would crash and she would let out everything, she wanted that to happen on her own, not with the Doctor or Martha or even Sky. She was to stuck in her thoughts to notice a) her cut was still bleeding or b) Martha was watching her from the door. She cleared her throat announcing herself, Abi looked up and smiled, banishing all sad thoughts.

"Hey"

"Hi, you alright?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Your..your leg"

Abi frowned, "What about it?"

"It's bleeding"

Abi looked down at her foot, her eyes widened at the amount of blood, "Oh wow..." She carefully sat down, stretching out her leg, this allowed Martha to see it clearly and she immediately walked forward to assist her. Abi looked behind her at the cupboard she was leaning on and opened it bringing out and Earth first aid box. Martha's eyebrows furrowed in,

"Why do you have Earth medicine, isn't there some futuristic..better medicine?"

She shrugged, "I like using Earth things, reminds me of home" Martha thought about this, the Doctor told her about what and who Abi decided to be, she was kind of flattered that she choose humanity over the Time Lords.

"Here, let me" She began stitching her up, "Are..are you okay?"

"Yes" Her answer was too quick to be considered the truth, this made Martha raised her eyebrows,

"Sure?"

She sighed, "It's easier for me, I've spent my whole like stuck on a ship with no proper contact from anyone else, all I've got, all I've had is Sky, so I can control my feelings. When I get hurt I just close up that part of my life, isolate myself."

Martha considered her tactics, "Does..does it work?"

"Does for me...why?"

"Well, won't-"

Abi hissed at the pain, "Sorry" Martha apologized, "I mean, if you bottle up your emotions, one day it will come tumbling down"

She looked down, "I don't want to feel like this"

"I know, but it's better to feel something than become emotionless"

"When did you get so wise?" She jokingly asked,

"Experience?", Martha shrugged, Abi stared at her, seeing the hidden pain,

"You've been hurt..no...wait.. you're hurting" Martha looked up at her, noticing how easily Abi had guessed her problems but she said nothing, Abi looked down, suddenly going through all the possibilities as to why she could be hurting but then the answer was so obvious that she almost face palmed,

"...Doctor, ugh Doctor, why do I let you out?"

Martha completely focuse on Abi's foot, not saying anything for fear of being obvious. Abi placed an arm on her shoulder, forcing her to look up, she sighed,

"Sometimes he looks at me and I think he feels something, but he so hard to understand."

"He's old, Martha, really old and really damaged, after the Time War, he was so alone and he hated himself, he's better now but falling in love or even being in a relationship is something he does not want to get into. Even Rose was difficult for him, it took two regenerations for him to even admit there was something"

"I know..I just can't help it"

Abi nodded in understanding, "Remember what I said, if I get hurt, I just block out the feelings, try it, focus on other people. It works for me"

She got up and picked Martha with her, she glanced at her foot, "It's healing quicker than normal, must be all that energy"

"I'm gonna go sleep, the whole alien elephant thing really took a lot out of me" Abi nodded and stepped out, she exercised her leg as she walked, noticing the speed of the healing. When she arrived she saw the Doctor, with his glassed inspecting the panels with furrowed eyebrows,

"Doctor?"

He looked up and smiled before noticing her leg in a bandage, "What happened?"

"Simulation", she waved off his concern, "Doctor" she walked up to him, directing his attention to her, "Why are you still here, it's been a week, it's not healthy for you to stay in one place"

He looked like he wanted to say something else but decided against it, "Abi, Sky's been scanning you, you've got some kind of unfamiliar energy flowing through your body, she can't scan it"

"Okaaay"

"The Tardis might be able to scan you though"

"Yeah, okay", she followed him to the blue box, waiting for him to unlock before entering behind him. He walked up the ramp and walked over to some of the controls fiddling with them. Abi looked down at these control, brushing her hand over them,

"I bet you don't know what half these things do"

He grinned up at her, deliberately not replying, gently, he took her hand and placed it on a circular panel, it tickled her palm so she slightly giggled like a kid. When the weird sensation was over he let her hand go and looked over at the screen, observing it with intense concentration. Now when she saw the screen she knew the words were in Old High Gallifreyan, she didn't want to even try to work it out so she walked around the console avoiding the screen. He sighed, rubbing his eyes, she looked up,

"What?"

"I dunno, I mean at first I thought I could've been leftovers from the Daleks but the Tardis should be able to detect that. This energy is old, really old, it's like a homing device, but I can't work out the origin"

"Homing to what?"

"I don't know"

She followed him out of the Tardis, both pondering on what was happening to her,

"But when you got taken by Rassillon, how did it happen"

She shrugged, "There was a transmat infiltrating the ship, then a white light and then I woke up there"

"So you're basically a link then, to the Time Lock"

"They said I was their way out... but there was someone else too"

He looked up, frowning, "Who?"

"They never said a name, just this guy who went mad, insane" She observed him, "Why, do you think you know him?"

"Him..why do you say him?"

She blinked, then frowned, trying to remember what Rassillon said, "I dunno, just a guess"

"Noo, it's more than that," He got up suddenly, "It may be just me but I don't think they're finished with you"

She looked up at him, "Can you stop them taking me?"

"The links in your head, embedded in your body and history, they can pluck you from whenever and wherever"

She got up, rubbing the bridge of her nose, "But..but they can stop the manipulator, they have that power in a Time Lock? And what..what about Dasdre, I mean what if I can't come back?"

He walked up to her, staring dead into her eyes, "There's nothing we can do to stop them, now at least"

"Well...that's not good enough," She moved over to Sky's panels, connecting herself to a belt on the console, he followed her up there,

"But..wait, what are you doing?"

She was focused on connecting the belt thing, "If the link is me then I can trace it, go back to them"

He stopped her working immediately, "No...you can't!"

"Look! If they're gonna keep doing this then I at least need to know why, it'll be find I always come back" She took his hands of her and resumed working,

"You don't know that! They are dangerous, and once they know that you got back your old intelligence then-"

"Then I can reason with them"

"Time Lords don't negotiate"

"You say that like they're Daleks" She mumbled,

"Well they can be! Abi!"

"She sighed and looked up to him, "I can't let them have this kind of control over me, I need to know, why and how. Doctor I've gotta do this"

He gripped her shoulder and pulled her into his embrace, "You'd better come back" She smiled when he released her,

"I always do"

She had to blink a couple of times for her eyes to adjust, once she could assess her surroundings she realized she wasn't in the same room she woke up in before. She was in a cinema like room with a big screen but no chair. She got up from the floor and stretched a bit before walking around, she still had the belt around her waist, she didn't tell the Doctor this before she assumed he would know, but the best can actually protect her from life threatening wounds but only for as long as she is conscious, so in a nutshell she can't die when she is awake. She walked around the room for a bit, stopping when she thought she heard movements. The screen at the front or back of the room (it was too dark to tell) flickered which made the room's lighting flickered, then it burst into life with images flashing like memories, her mind filled with new old memories, things she already knew, it was like watching her life as if it were someone else.

Flashback

She got up from her chair to approach Rassillon, eyeing him up in shock,

"You want me?"

He glanced at her, unaffected by her expression, "Your intelligence is of great use to us

She scoffed, "My intelligence isn't even normal, do you remember what you did?"

"Our choices were fair and just!"

"You took me and changed me, I'm not helping you, what are you doing anyway?"

He looked to his guards, they moved towards her, she noticed and turned to them, "Stay!" Her eyes flashed gold and they stopped immediately. Rassillon smirked at her ferocity,

"You see, this is what you are made for"

"I am not helping you!"

He softly chuckled, "Did you think you had a choice?"

She breathed deeply, glaring at him, "I will not help you"

She got up and walked towards her, when he got to her side she stood her ground, "Follow me" He brushed past her shoulder and walked on, she looked at all the Time Lords on guard and left to follow Rassillon, she had to jug to catch up with his fast pacing,

"What? What is it?"

"You know the Untempered Schism"

Rolling her eyes she nodded, "Yes"

"You were one of the people who stayed, right? Who could look at it and not go mad or run away"

"I have the capabilities, but it's wrong, you're taking young children there, scarring them for life, they're not ready"

They were approaching a room as he continued to talk, "What you think doesn't matter to me, what I want to know is, we have a young boy, Koschei, he looked into it, but his symptoms aren't like any other"

"What's wrong with him"

"He can hear a drum beat, four drum beats, non-stop" He stopped outside the door, she looked at him for a moment, thinking of ways to stop him, before walking into the room, there was a little boy, on a bed sleeping, he seemed so peaceful, she went in, Rassillon followed, she turned to him, "The effects of the Schism cannot be altered, you know that"

"I know, but I want to see what's inside his head"

"Why do you need me for this? You can see for yourself"

He shook his head, "I can't, I keep trying to connect to his mind but he is unintentionally blocking everything out"

She went over to him, "This wouldn't of happened if you stopped the whole thing" He said nothing, she placed her hands on the boys head and reached out to him, trying to get him to open up. She had to admit he was closed off and able to shield his mind, no normal child could've done this obviously, to unlock his mind was still easy for her but she didn't want to unless she knew what she was going to find, she knew that if she did then Rassillon wouldn't let him close his mind again and the boy must've done it for a reason. She decided to leave him unharmed but she left him a message for when he woke up, "I'm sorry, the drums won't ever go away, but you cannot let them control you. You are better than that, Salia." She sighed and got up, faking agitation,

"He shouldn't be able to shield his mind like that"

"You cannot get through?"

"But why, how can a child do that?" She stepped out of the room and turned back to him, "Why do you need me?"

He walked out to the corridors, "The Daleks are attacking us, we need to stop them"

She blinked, "That's it?"

"They have defeated over 200 galaxies already, we just need you to annihilate them"

She stopped walking, causing him to turn to her, "But the people, the species they've already conquered, what about them?"

"Gallifrey will fall if we don't act now!"

"I am not committing genocide!"

"I WILL NOT DIE!"

She gasped and stumbled back from the memory, taking in more oxygen before she was plunged into another deep memory,

She steeped out of her station and walked to the screen, picking up a communicator she spoke into it,

"Kangier! Kangier! Report, what is the status of the Senate?!"

"It's safe and locked, they are all safe! Salia, you're surrounded!"

"I'm fine"

She put down the communicator and ran a hand through her hair, she heard battle cries outside and ran to get her guns before stepping out to face the door, something was pounding down the door, it burst open and she readily adjust her gun to aim and a man, she frowned,

"What are you doing here! Get in, you'll be shot"

"Sorry, I- Salia? Are you Salia?"

"That doesn't matter now, who are you?"

"I'm the Doctor" She shook his hand, smiling in realization,

"The..Doctor, wow, you're a man and a half, I've heard stories" He frowned at her, not wanting to see someone smiling at him when he was about to murder them,

"I need to-" He stepped away from he, "Go.."

"Wait, it's not safe, there are Daleks out there"

"I'll be fine" He mumbled and walked out, she expected to hear shot but there was nothing, she went to the computer to scan for nearby life, there were not Daleks for a couple mile so she was fine. Or she would have been fine if a light had not engulfed her. She closed her eyes from the light, when she opened them she saw the Senate room, but it was abandoned.

"This is the last option"

She turned to see Rassillon, with a group of finely dressed men, "What?"

"The Doctor, he's going to activate the Moment, to prevent the Final Sanction"

She flinched at the title, 'The Final Sanction', when she heard what they were going to do, she challenged them, damaged their systems, infiltrated their work and generally made it impossible for them to complete it. She knew about the Moment too, what would happen if the Doctor did it, she had just spoken to him not long ago, she was shocked more than anything, she couldn't believe he was prepared to sacrifice everything, she hadn't expected it from him.

"No..no he can't"

"We cannot allow him to do so-"

"Then stop him!"

"This is the Doctor! He can't be stopped, so we have decided what to do"

She stepped to them, "What, what are you going to do?"

He motioned the men to hold her, to which she frowned at, "We will be trapped in the Time Lock, we will need a way out, so we are preparing"

She struggled against there hold, "Preparing what?"

"You."

"What?! Rassillon, what are you going to do to me?" She fought back more now,

"Sending you to Earth, from which you will grow and then send you to the Serpa's, they will help you bring us back out of the Time Lock"

"No! No! Don't Rassillon, let me go! Let me go!"

"This is the only way out"

"It isn't, I can stop the Doctor, just please, don't send me away! No!" She was jabbed in the neck, she fell limp and lifeless, her eyes flickered closed.

She staggered back, almost falling as she came back into consciousness, she took a moment before run around the room, desperate to not relieve anything else, she felt the walls, "Let me out! Hey!"

The door slid open and she tripped out, catching herself, she was in the corridor like before, she ran around, looking for the Senate room once again. After running for a bit, she approached the doors and burst through seeing the people and Rassilon again, who frowned at her as she ran up to him,

"We did not summon you"

"Yeah you didn't, but you're gonna have to stop doing that," She leaned in, "I remember"

He blinked and got up, "About everything?"

"Yes, and let me tell you now, I am still not going to help, I resisted before, I'll do it again, The Final Sanction isn't happening!" She turned so that the whole room could hear her,

Rassilon stepped up to her, "You will be just as bad as the Doctor" He hissed,

"The Doctor isn't bad, he saved the whole universe from you, but there's something else, I know, unfinished business"

"You are not alone, there is another child of Gallifrey"

"You're forgetting that I'm not a Time Lord, I choose to be human, and who is the Time Lord anyway"

He smiled, "Work it out, genius" He pushed the button on her belt that she thought no one would notice, she left the Time Lords and fell into Martha, who caught her just in time,

"Woaah, easy, you scared me half to death"

Abi groaned, standing up on her own, "Sorry, really shouldn't do that" She walked over to the sofa chairs, noticing the Doctor on one too, "Hey"

"So?"

"I don't know what they are going to do with me, but I don't think Sky or Dasdre is on their hit list right now"

He nodded, she sat up remembering what Rassilon said, "Doctor, there's something else, Rassilon, he told me, you are not alone"

He took in a sharp breath and Martha came round after hearing that, "What?" She asked,

"You are not alone, that's what he said, why?"

The Doctor looked down, "That's what the Face of Boe said"

"The Face of who?"

He got up and walked up and down, "Never mind, but what did he mean?"

"He said, there was another child of Gallifrey, any ideas?"

He shook his head, and looked at Martha, she smiled and turned to Abi, "Hey do you wanna come with us, just for a bit, the Doctor spoke about the Sky situation so we'll bring you back soon"

Abi stood up and looked at both of them, she shrugged "Ok" And she strolled into the box, the both of the laughed and followed her in.
