FINAL CHAPTER OF SPOILERS

Don't worry, they'll all get out of this... maybe. Just remember. I'm not Moffat.

And because I'm not Moffat, I don't own Doctor Who.

CHAPTER 25

"Osgood! You lovely girl!" CyberEleven remarked. "Love the bow tie!"

"Right." CyberTen replied. "So, into the TARDIS you go. Much safer there. Don't want Dr. Frank N. Furter here to wake up and kill you now, do we?" Osgood didn't hesitate.

The Doctor could only stare with horror at the faces of his past selves in their metallic bodies. "What? How'd this happen? You still have your own minds?"

"Don't really know, exactly." CyberEleven replied. "Cybermen have never been able to upgrade us before, though they came close when I became Mr. Clever awhile back. Though it's nice to still have my own mind. I like my own mind. My mind is cool!"

"And seeing that you and Rose haven't been upgraded gives the rest of us hope." CyberTen added, ignoring the 'cool' comment.

But before the Doctor could respond to that, Missy awoke. When she saw the past faces of the Doctor superimposed on the body of a Cyberman, she was just giddy with joy. "Oh, isn't this just perfect!" She laughed. "Now you all get to be present for the big finale!"

A voice came over the intercom. "Commander Stewart, I must inform you that we are under attack! Cybermen are surrounding us on all sides!" Rose ran back upstairs before the Doctor could stop her.

Just then, the TARDIS's phone rang.

"Doctor! It's Clara! I'm in the London cemetery. We have a problem. It's, well, everyone. And I mean everyone! They're all Cybermen!"

"Clara, when you say everyone..."

"You name them, Amy, Rory, Donna... Danny." The last name was said in almost a whisper, so great was her pain in seeing him this way. "And not just them. Others too. I can guarantee that you could name any human you've met and invited to board your TARDIS at some point, they're all here. Well River and Jack aren't Cyber, but they're here too."

The Doctor was filled with dread. "Clara, are they of the hive mind?"

"They don't appear to be, no. They seem to have their own minds in tact."

"Okay. Don't do anything until I get there."

Missy listened to the Doctor's call with great interest and laughed at the look of pain and dread on the old man's face. "What's the matter, Doctor? Too much drama even for you?"

Meanwhile, Rose and Kate were back in the conference room as Cybermen boarded the airplane. They didn't run, because they had no where to go. Kate screamed as one of the Cybermen cornered the soldier the Doctor had called a "man scout" and aimed his gun at the man. But that Cyberman was struck down by another.

The second Cyberman lifted off his faceplate: a previous version of Rose. Three other Cybermen who had also entered the cabin through the hole in the side, lifted their face plates and revealed two more Roses and Nine. He looked at Rose and grinned madly. "Just this once, Rose! Everybody lives!" As they all grabbed a passenger on the plane and flew off before the suction from the outside would kill them. Rose and Kate ran back downstairs for safety.

Unfortunately, that was the precise moment that Missy blew the cargo door open. Kate was sucked out immediately as well as a few Cybermen who were under Missy' s control. Rose clung to the railing, her feet flying out behind her. She was eerily reminded of a certain lever and a white wall. "Oh no! Not again!" She screamed before she once again lost her grip and was sucked towards certain death. Unlike the last time, however, the two CyberDoctors didn't hesitate and jumped after her.

Before the Doctor could register what had just happened, the TARDIS herself tumbled out and he was tumbling out after her. Missy transported herself to the Nethersphere where she and Seb watched the events unfold.

"Oh that's not good. He'll just go splat! That man has no finesse!" Missy complained as she watched him fall.

But soon they realized that the Doctor was a man on a mission: he reached in his pocket for the TARDIS key and turned his fall into a skydive and headed straight for his ship. This maneuver caused Seb to squeal like a fan girl, much to Missy' s annoyance. She turned him off. He was just an interface after all.

Everyone was reunited in the cemetery where the companions had been waiting. The CyberDoctors, CyberRoses, and the people they saved all landed safely, including a very relieved Rose who was firmly in the arms of not one, but two CyberDoctors. The TARDIS materialized and the Doctor (and one rather seasick looking Osgood) tumbled out. Missy chose that precise moment to land with her umbrella. ("Great. My favorite Julie Andrews movie is ruined for me" CyberEleven remarked under his breath).

Missy began barking orders into her bracelet. All the Cybermen who still had face plates and had been wandering aimlessly suddenly stood at attention and began obeying the silly orders that she had barked out.

"Happy Birthday Mr. President!" Missy sang out as she removed her bracelet and snapped it onto the Doctor's wrist.

"What?! What is this?!" The Doctor demanded.

Jack attempted to lunge at Missy, but CyberNine grabbed him and wouldn't let him go. "Future me has this under control. He just doesn't know it yet." He whispered.

"I have given you an army! Two armies, actually! One you control with the bracelet, the other you have already always had under your command because they love you so. And as an added bonus, they'll never die!" Missy howled with laughter at this idea. "Plus, you have your past selves to keep you company as well, and Roses too, just as you wanted. What more could you ever wish for? Just think of what you could do, Doctor! All those people you could have saved from the Dalek camps, victims of every hostile alien since time began. You can save them all! You just have to conquer the universe and make them all Cybermen, and they will live forever!" She laughed, a horrible, menacing laugh. "What? You thought I was raising the army for me? Armies are for people who think that they're right, and no one thinks their righter than you!"

"But... I don't want this! I can't have this! Why are you doing this?" The Doctor demanded.

"Because I just want my friend back!" Missy exclaimed to the shock of everyone present. "Do you know where Gallifrey is? No? Well I do! It's the same place is always been silly! Haven't you even bothered to go and look?"

River couldn't take it anymore and shot Missy who disintegrated on contact. The Doctor tossed CyberDanny the bracelet, and around the world, all the Cybermen, including every companion, flew up into the sky and exploded, dissipating the clouds and saving the Earth.

Every past face of the Doctor and every Rose stayed behind, however. They had begun to glow with a golden light. Their Cyber armor fell off, and they were whole again. All fourteen faces of the Doctor (including Tentoo) and their Roses were back!

There was still one more Cyberman that remained. All he did was point. The group of Doctors and Roses plus Clara, River, Osgood, and Jack ran to where he was pointing and found Kate Stewart lying on the ground. She was still alive. Slowly, the Cyberman lifted his face plate: Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart had saved his daughter. In unison, all fourteen Doctors gave him a long overdue salute before he blasted off into space.

The five eldest Doctors, their Roses, Clara, River, and Jack boarded the TARDIS quietly. This had been quite an ordeal. Then there were the others to consider. Why has they all blasted off? Danny had to, yes, because he had the bracelet. But why did the others? There was a way for Danny to come back, using said bracelet, but the Ponds, Smiths, and Temples were lost forever.

Or were they?
