Holly and Martha walk with Chantho throughout the station. They come across the boy who told them he was old enough to work. Creet. Holly smiles.
"Excuse me. Hey, what was your name? Creet," Martha smiles.
"That's right, Miss."
"Who are you with, Creet?" Martha continues to ask.
"Do you have family?" Holly asks.
"No, miss. Just me."
Holly feels sad. "I don't, either."
"Well, good luck, Creet. What do you think it's going to be like in Utopia?" Martha asks him.
"My mum used to say the skies are made of diamonds."
Holly gives a small smile. Martha and her share a look before Martha says, "Good for her. Go on, off you go. Get your seat."
Martha, Holly, and Chantho come back to the main place where Professor Yana, the Doctor, and Jack are.
For a while, Holly's standing there watching everyone. Holly giggles when Chantho and Martha are talking, Martha trying to get Chantho to say a sentence without her name in it. She says, "no."
They then tried to get everything ready with the radiation. All of a sudden something happens and makes Holly scream because everything didn't go like it was supposed to. The Doctor tells Holly to calm down through their minds.
"Jack, override the chambers!" shouts the Doctor. Holly shouts, "No! I'll do it!"
Before Jack could reach the power cables, Holly does it. Martha screams for Holly, as well as the Doctor. She falls backwards.
The Doctor runs towards her. "Holly! Holly, Holly, Holly, Holly…"
He cries out loud and motions for Martha to help bring her into the TARDIS.
"Jack was supposed to do it Martha," he sobs. "Then she—"
"I know!" Martha shouts. "Why did she do that? Holly, don't die on us! You only just started to—"
The Doctor motions for Martha to get out of the way. He kneels on the TARDIS's floor as he cries. "You don't even know how to regenerate," he says as he stares at Holly's almost-lifeless face. A single tear drips onto Holly's face and a spark of gold comes out of her mouth. The Doctor jumps and gets Holly out of his arms.
The Doctor quickly closes the door of the TARDIS as Jack and Martha shout.
"Oh Holly—"
All so suddenly, Holly's appearance changes. A burst of gold comes out from Holly's skin. Her hair changes from light blonde to black. Her eyes change from brown to silver. Then, her entire face changes.
"Holly?"
Holly groggily gets up, almost bumping the Doctor in the head. He stares in disbelief.
"Holly, what—"
"Doctor!" Holly pauses, hearing her new voice.
"Ooh, that's different. Wait, am I british? Oh my god, I'm British, and I'm not even trying! Doctor? What's—"
"Holly, you've regenerated!" The Doctor said, wiping his tears. "I was afraid you wouldn't have made it!"
"Who says I wouldn't have? I'm a time lady, of course. I saw your regeneration on television!"
"But—"
"Doctor? What the hell is going on? Let us in!"
"Just a second! Holly's regenerated!"
"Holly's what?!" Martha shouts through the door. "We gotta go, Doctor!"
"I'm fine, everyone! I'm completely… fine!"
She whispers the last word, and faints. Thankfully the Doctor catches her as she falls into his arms.
"Knew that would kick in any second," muttered the Doctor. "I'm going to leave you here Holly, I'm sorry. We'll be back and everything will be okay."
"Doctor?!" Martha shouts for him. The Doctor takes one last look at Holly before leaving the TARDIS. That girl has gone through so much already. He felt so bad for her. When she wakes up she'll be in such disbelief. What will Leila, Nate, Scarlett and Neil say when they see her next? Is that why they didn't come at an earlier time to see her? Except for Scarlett, her White Glow situation made her come. And then she came back after dropping Holly off just a few hours ago in the Doctor's timeline.
Things just got a bit more complicated than expected, and they weren't going to get better anytime soon.
Bet you didn't see that coming, either! But the title of the chapter kinda gives it away. The reason why I had Holly do it was because she didn't remember/know that Jack could die a bunch of times and still live. Hope you guys are liking this story so far! I'm finally writing part two!!
Love,
