[Gallifrey ; Age 8]

The day was finally here!

She would finally be getting to go into the academy!

Safe to say, Delta was a bit nervous. It has been almost a four years since she had seen her older brother Koshei. She missed him terribly. It was boring being by herself most days, as she really only considered her brother her only friend.

Well, and Theta.

Shaking her head, she pushed the thoughts away. She needed to get ready.

A knock on the door was heard and her mother walked in, the robes that Rhea would be wearing to the ceremony in her hands. Unshed tears were in her eyes.

"My little one is growing up." her mother spoke softly, as she helped her daughter into the robes. The robes were stiff, but luckily she would only have to wear that for that night, they would get different robes once they got settled into the academy.

She could do this.

The Untempered Schism was beautiful. She could hear a soft voice whisper in the back of her head. A warm feeling enveloped her, like a blanket, and she never wanted to leave. It drew her in and in the back of her mind, she could see everything.

"I swear to protect the ancient Law of Gallifrey with all my might and brain. I will to the end of my days, with justice and with honor temper my actions and my thoughts." Rhea spoke out, not letting any emotion show on her face as they injected her with a vial of recognition codes. Those would allow her to travel through the time vortex. She would soon later find out that they would allow her to regenerate.

Later that day, she would be told how long she stared into the Untempered Schism, and some would wonder how she didn't go mad.

Instead, she saw the beauty of the universe and everything it had to offer.

The Doctor was sure to catch the female before she hit the ground. His own mind was going miles a minute.

Who was she?

Rhea reminded him of Her.

The one person he wished he could have saved from the War.

His best friend

Delta.

The fact that they shared the name made it that much more painful for him, not that he would ever tell her that. Not to mention the other similarities that they shared. The fact that the TARDIS, god bless his TARDIS, was welcoming to her. Most of the time it took the ole girl ages to warm up to anyone he brings in. But the second the black haired girl waltzes in, she lights up and acts like she's known the girl forever.

He had just shook his head, a smile on his face at the sight. And then the fact that it seemed as if she was communicating with the time machine, made him question her

again. But the one thing, the one thing that for a second, made his hearts wish it was her, was the fact that she could fly the TARDIS.

Making sure she was safely on the ground, he made sure Rose was with her before he went a bit further away and began to pace back and forth.

It couldn't be her.

There was no way that it was possible.

No.

He would know if it was her. He would feel it in his mind. The presence of another Time Lord would be in the back of his head.

Just for a second, he wished it was her. There wasn't a day that went by that he didn't think of her. The Doctor, not one to really admit his feelings, was lonely. There were only so many gaps he could fill with companions.

"Doctor! She's waking up!" He could hear Rose call over to him. Snapping out of his thoughts, he hastily made his way to the girl on the floor.

Rhea blearlily opened her eyes, her head pounding. Her mouth was dry and tasted weird as she struggled to push herself up. This flashback was way more vivid than ones that she has had in the past.

"Oh fuck, my head is killing me." She muttered, raising a shaky hand to rub at her forehead. Her head was pounding tenfold, and she felt a hand on her shoulder, keeping her steady.

"Keep still, let me look at you." The Doctor murmured softly. After a quick scan with his sonic, she was deemed okay enough, and he popped back to the TARDIS to get her something for the pain.

"Another flashback?" Rose asked as soon as the doors slid shut.

"Yeah, this was one, long. How long was I out for?"

"Close to an hour or so."

This was the longest one yet.

After getting injected with something for the pain, which surprisingly hurt they moved on. As they were making their way down the hall, the station shook with such force, it just about knocked Rhea off her feet. Her and the Doctor looked at each other, before taking off.

'Are you okay?' he mouthed to her, concerned in his eyes.

She nodded, trying to make the smile seem real.

"That wasn't a gravity pocket. I know gravity pockets and they don't feel like that. What do you think, Jabe? Listened to the engines. They've pitched up about thirty Hertz. That's dodgy or what?" He rattled off.

"It's the sound of metal. It doesn't make any sense to me." Jabe responded. Rhea moved a bit away,not wanting to get into their conversation. Her mind was still reeling. She could see Rose talking with Cassandra, and a smirk appeared on her face. Rose seemed to be giving the skin a run for her money.

Good going Rose.

She found a small little window seat, and took it, looking out into the vacuum of space. Something was going to happen, she could feel it.

But this flashback really had her on edge.

What did it mean?

Did this mean that somehow she was a, what was it? A Time Lord?

Rhea ran her hand along her watch that was in her pocket, tracing her fingers in the engraved lines. She could see the Doctor offer Jabe his arm as they made their way out of the room. Most likely to the engine room to see what was going on with it. She would stay where she was knowing it was most likely the safest place.

A part of her however, wanted to go with him, to make sure that he was safe. A dull pain went through her chest.

She couldn't have told you how long time passed as she blocked out the current world. She went through every memory, every flashback that she had. It seemed she wasn't who she thought she was. At least, for now. Perhaps this was just something that was wrong with her and would go away.

A while must have passed because The Doctor and Rose made their way back into the room, an almost angry look on the Doctor's face.

That's when she noticed that Jabe wasn't with him.

Oh.

She felt a pang of sadness run through her.

Finally bringing herself back to reality, she heard him speak.

" Yeah, I'm fine. I'm full of ideas, I'm bristling with them. Idea number one, teleportation through five thousand degrees needs some kind of feed. Idea number two, this feed must be hidden nearby." He had one of the eggs that they had been given and smashed it open Inside was an electronic type animal thing."Idea number three, if you're as clever as me, then a teleportation feed can be reversed."

In beamed Cassandra, who clearly wasn't expecting to be brought back.

Anger coursed through Rhea 's veins. She hated people like that. Hated that people used violence to get what they wanted.

"The last human." Rhea sneered as she made her way over to the flap of skin. "Here's the thing, at this moment I don't really know who I am exactly, but I know one thing for sure. I hate violence. I hate people that use it and I hate that you, out of all people, did it." She started to pace, "You killed those people, you murdered them. And for what? What was the reason?"

"It depends on your definition of people, and that's enough of a technicality to keep your lawyers dizzy for centuries. Take me to court, then, Rhea , and watch me smile and cry and flutter"

"And creak." The Doctor spoke up, moving closer to the black haired girl.

"What?" Her nasally voice spoke.

"You're creaking." Rose spoke, a smile on her face.

"What? Ah! I'm drying out! Oh, sweet heavens. Moisturize me, moisturize me! Where are my surgeons? My lovely boys! It's too hot!"

Rhea scoffed. "It's too late Cassandra. You brought this onto yourself. Clearly you didn't your fucking plan through huh?"

"Have pity! Moisturize me! Oh, oh, Doctor. I'm sorry. I'll do anything."

"Everything has its time and everything dies." the Doctor spoke.

Rhea watched as the skin tightened and then imploded.

Good riddance.

A little while later, the trio stood near the TARDIS.

"The end of the Earth. It's gone. We were too busy saving ourselves. No one saw it go. All those years, all that history, and no one was even looking. It's just…" Rose trailed off.

"Come with me."

They made their way into the Ship and soon were stepping out into central London.

"You think it'll last forever, people and cars and concrete, but it won't. One day it's all gone. Even the sky. My planet's gone. It's dead. It burned like the Earth. It's just rocks and dust before its time."

"What happened?" Rose asked, frown on her face.

"There was a war. I was sent away in the early days by my mother. I was the only one remaining, my brother lost in the battle." Rhea pipped in, shrugging her shoulders.

A shudder ran through her body.

She knew the Doctor was looking at her, a confused look on his face. "Who are you?" His words came out in a whisper.

"Right now? I have no clue. Literally." She shrugged. "I'm having memories of a life that I didn't think was mine, and I've never been more confused."

"We can talk about this later, do you smell chips? I smell chips!" The Doctor spoke, and Rose let out a laugh.

"It's on me, we do only have about five billion years till they close."
