River: 3
Rose: 11
Neither: 2
Someone Else: 1 (I'm counting that one vote) [One other thing I forgot to mention: Clara will not make an appearance]
That's it so far. I didn't get as many votes as I did for the second chapter. Did you guys dislike it? I'm sorry it took so long. I'm actually juggling way to many stories. I have a poll up, on my profile. It'd be very helpful if you guys were to vote for which story you want me to mostly focus on. Well, this chapter will be a lot of flashbacks. It's quite funny, I guess most of my updates will take this pattern. 2 chapters in a row and then about a week and a half wait.
I dunno, I hope you enjoy this chapter, I worked very hard on it. (or, rather, will. I write the A/N before I write the chapter. ;)
Oh, and, before I forget: in order to finish this story, I need you guys to send something in in your review. For whomever you're voting for:
River, Rose, Neither, or Someone Else
You need to send in reasons that the Doctor loves that person. I need 5 reasons, oh, and, I need you people to vote too!
Warning: This chapter is rated T for violence, horror, and the appearance of my awesome yet creepy BFFWYLION.
I wasn't sure what it was; but, since I saved Rose, I realized how much fun it really was to help people. It didn't feel good, or make me feel whole, but I just enjoyed it. Isn't that funny?
People usually help others because it's a good thing to do; not because of a more selfish reason. But yeah, I'm like that. Always have been; never ever gonna change.
"So ya think 'e noticed?" Rose asked me. I shook my head.
"Sorry, what?"
"My eyes, they're green." She stated. I blinked.
"But they're supposed to be brown." I said simply.
"Yeah, there's something inside me. It's changing my physical appearance. For example: my hair; it's much longer now." Rose explained.
"I know the feeling." I muttered. Luckily, she didn't actually hear me.
"So, are we going to go somewhere, Or are we just going to stay here?" The Doctor asked, clasping his hands together.
"Let's go get Captain Jack Harkness!" I exclaimed, and walked over to the console.
"Let's not!" The Doctor exclaimed back, grabbed my shoulders, spun me to face the other direction, and gave me a little shove. "How bout Raxicoricofallapatorious? Who wants to go to
Raxicoricofallapatorious?" The Doctor continued.
"Isn't that the place where the Slitheen were supposed to be put to trial?" Rose asked.
"Yep." River said, entering the room. I looked up and tried to pull a smile across my face, but ended up with a weird grimace.
"Hello River." The Doctor greeted her.
"So, Sweetie, where are we going today?" I saw just a flash of hurt fly across Rose 's face.
"But, wait, Rose, Doctor, you two've been there, haven't you?" I asked.
"How'd you know that?" The Doctor asked me.
"You opened the door to my mind, I opened the door to yours." I said smugly.
"You remind me of Madame de Pompedour." Rose and the Doctor said in unison.
"Oh, I remember her." I reminisced.
"How much did you see?" He asked.
"Only the parts that you think about often. Like, I could see the topics, but they were like dead locked chests. It's like you leave Rose 's book open, even when you're not thinking about her." I explained. I looked over at Rose who was obviously debating as to whether that was a good thing or not.
"Why're we going to Raxicoricofallapatorious?" River asked, walking around the counsel.
"House tours." He said excitedly. I rolled my eyes and took a seat on the floor. I wrapped and unwrapped my long hair around my fingers. When, of course, my hand began to glow.
"What're you doing?" The Doctor asked as he flipped switches.
"Playing with pure time energy." I smirked.
"That's impossible." River said.
"Oh, wow, the two of you," I pointed to River and the Doctor, "are a bunch of doubters. And you both fully know that it is possible."
"Is tha' what it looked like when I absorbed the Time Vortex?" Rose asked. The Doctor turned around suddenly, walked over to her, put his hands on her face, and looked at her eyes, his head moving slightly as he looked back and forth between both of them.
"What'd you say?" he said quietly.
"'Is tha' what it looked like when I absorbed the Time Vortex?'" she repeated slowly, the worry in her voice obvious.
"Oh, no, no, no, no..." he whispered so quietly that even I could barely hear from 2 feet away.
"What's wrong?" Rose asked forcefully.
"You shouldn't remember that." he studied her again.
"Now, erm, I'm sorry to interrupt such a dramatic moment, but, I think we may possibly be falling out of the sky." I mentioned carefully. 'Thank-You, I've always hated rough landings.' a voice inside my head said. My eyes widened as I realized that it was the TARDIS. 'You're welcome...?' I offered. I felt the counsel buzz beneath my hand.
"Doctor! She's right!" River yelled. Just as he turned to face us, there was a huge bump. I got thrown against the wall, Rose hit her head on the counsel, River landed in the seat, and the Doctor was holding on to the counsel across from Rose.
"Ow..." I breathed.
"S'everyone okay?" Rose asked.
"Check!" I called.
"Yep." River yelled.
"Let's go!" the Doctor shouted from the doorway of the TARDIS. All of us stood up and stumbled to the door.
"Excellent, off we go!" he said, the same vigor in his voice. I followed Rose out the door who was behind 'The Oncoming Storm', which put me in front of River.
I realized that we were in the woods as soon as I walked out. I heard the door swing shut after River Song. Suddenly, there was a huge series of crashes coming straight toward us.
"Run!" the Doctor said loudly and grabbed Rose hands, just like old times. up ahead, there was light shining through the trees. " We're going through there!"
"Oh, right, 'cause it's always safe in the light! Have you learned nothing from the alien movies?!" I yelled.
"Brace for impact; it'll hurt!" River's voice came through from the lighted area. How in the world di she get ahead of us? I heard two sudden and loud gasps as Rose and the Doctor went through. I breathed as deeply as physically possible while running.
The second I hit the invisible wall, I felt my eyes roll back in my head. That's when the pain started. I was in thousands, no millions, no trillians, no, a million gazillion pieces. I was being pushed and pulled at the same time, it hurt like heck. And I heard a distant scream. It took me more than a moment to realized it was mine.
I came together suddenly and, unfortunately, the pain didn't stop. It seared on. I could feel it, I was about to regenerate. My hands were already glowing. Losing control in 3, 2, 1.
The pain increased as the power surged through me once more. And, none too soon, it stopped and I landed in a semiconscious head on the ground.
Ya, I know, she really didn't take very long to regenerate again. But don't worry [team Leo leader] you come in soon.
And, no, I'm not done yet.
"And-oh, there she is." the Doctor said. He walked over to me and patted my cheeks, alternating between each one quickly. I made a face, waved him off, sat up, and took a deep breath.
I was lying on a bed; I realized. Where, I hadn't a clue.
"Doctor, where are we?" I asked with a heavy British accent. Nope, 😁, not Rose's.
"The house." he said excitedly, "the one we're touring." I chuckled nervously.
"How'd we get in?" I said hesitantly.
"Through the front door." Rose said, nodding toward a hallway that was visible through the doorway of the room we were in.
"Ok..." I gulped.
"'S jus' some creepy old house." she told me, trying to settle the fear the was obvious in my words and eyes.
"Where's River?" I asked.
"Right here. Doctor, I think that we should split up." River strutted in, carrying a cocked gun.
"She's right! Doctor, you're with me. River, Rose, be nice." I said cheerfully.
"Yes, yes. I quite think that's a good plan." The Doctor said while clasping and un-clasping his hands together.
"I don't suppose you can talk without waving your hands about?" I offered.
"Of course I can." he stated as his hands flew up into the air. "Well, almost." I nodded. He began to walk in the opposite direction that Rose and River were going. With a sigh, I followed him.
"Oh, who are you?" his voice sounded from ahead. How in the world do people keep on getting so far ahead of me without me realizing it?
I broke into a jog to catch up.
"Who're you talking t-" I stopped in mid sentence. There was a little girl there. She had shoulder length brown hair that was slightly wavy and was braided, blue eyes, and a lost and innocent look on her face.
"What's your name?" I asked her the child softly.
"Leah. Who are you? Can you help me? I'm lost." I analyzed Leah, as innocent as she seemed, she also seemed the tiniest bit creepy.
"Of course we will." Wait, that didn't come out of my mouth. I looked over at the Doctor only to find he wasn't there. I spotted him kneeling on the ground next to her, consoling her. I sighed. Why cant things ever be simple?
So, this adventure will be quite long. Now, don't forget, I really do need you guys to write reasons that the Doctor loves {insert name here}.
BTW: no slash.
Geronimo!
