A/N - Thank you to 11Dr. Luv, MayFairy, ameliority, UltimateDoctorWhoFanGirl, Ali, and Last-Catastrophe for reviewing!
Can I just start this off by saying that I'm deeply terrified of Daleks? There could be anything on that show, but a Dalek pops up and I run for the hills.
Disclaimer - I don't own Doctor Who.
"Exterminate! Exterminate!" The Dalek slowly started coming around the corner. Emma backed up until she felt the gate that was separating her from the Doctor against her back. She reached through the bars for his hand, looking slightly over her shoulder to peer at him through the corner of her eye.
"Hello, Doctor."
"Emma, please." He squeezed her hand tightly. "I can get you out. I know I can. If I just had my sonic-"
"Quiet."
"Exterminate!"
"Oi, you, too!" She snapped, looking back at the Dalek. "If you're going to kill me, you could at least give me five seconds to say goodbye, yeah? I'll be with you in a moment." Surprisingly, it stayed where it was and didn't make another sound. "Thank you." She turned to fully face the Doctor, cringing when she saw tears in his eyes.
"This doesn't have to be goodbye." He slid his hand from hers and reached up to stroke her face. "I can fix this. I can save you."
She pulled his hand away from her face. "No. This is it." He opened his mouth to say something, but she wouldn't let him. "Lord, I don't want to go. I've had the time of my life, travelling with you." She let out a teary laugh. "You've changed me, you really have. I'm a bloody hero, thanks to you!" She looked up at him, smiling despite the tear rolling down her cheek. "So, I'm good, Doctor. I'm finished."
"I'm sorry..."
"It's not your fault." Their foreheads pressed together, neither of them caring about the bars pressing against their temples. "You remember that when you blame yourself, you hear me? It is not your fault."
"You've said your goodbyes!" The Dalek's gravelly, robotic voice sounded from behind her. "You will be exterminated!"
"See you soon, stupid." She grabbed onto his jacket and pulled him down as she leaned up, pressing her lips to his. She kissed him as hard as she could, knowing it would be the last time she'd ever get to, while he reached out to pull her closer. He couldn't bear the thought of it ending. But it did, and when she leaned back, there was a wide grin on her face. "Geronimo." She whispered. She spun around to face the Dalek and threw her arms out to the side, giving a loud laugh. "Alright! Are you just going to sit there or are you going to exterminate me? You low, pathetic excuse for an alien."
Seeing the gunstick raise, the Doctor shoved his arm as far through the gate as he could, letting out a strangled cry. "No!" His fingertips just barely brushed her back.
The Dalek fired.
A/N - Oh, man, I am pure evil. I wonder what happened to Emma? Maybe you'll find out...maybe you won't ;)
