Divide

You turn slowly, cold emotion coursing through your veins. You are pleased to feel that the others are apprehensive.

"I'm sorry (Y/n), but that's not your world, and that isn't your family." Says The Doctor blandly.

You don't look up, breathing heavily.

"Take me back" you say quietly.

"No" she responds calmly.

You pull one last time at the door.

"Take me back" you repeat without looking at her.

"No" she says again.

"Why won't you take me back?!" You find yourself yelling, making Yaz and Jenny step back.

"Because your mother and sister are dead. That is not your home. If I take you back you could disrupt your entire time line, not to mention theirs, and create a tear in the fabric of the universe."

"Do you know how, how long I've suffered?" you hiss, whipping around at her. You feel you might just be about to attack.

"I know but-"

"NO YOU DO NOT KNOW!" You scream furiously. "I WAITED FOR YOU! I TRUSTED YOU EVEN WHEN YOU TOOK MY LIFE BY PUTTING ME BACK IN THAT PLACE!" You bellow, feeling completely deranged. You pull madly at you blue hair and slam your fist into your face.

"(Y/n) please calm down!" Shouts Jenny urgently and you scream again in frustration.

"I WILL NOT CALM DOWN!" You shriek, actually stamping your foot and pulling out whole chunks of your hair.

"Who's dying?" Asks Missy, appearing with a raised eyebrow.

"Doctor she's not safe." Says Jenny, turning to The Doctor. "You promised, you promised me the second she was a danger to herself we would take her back."

You pause in alarm, gaging The Doctors reaction. Through your rage you see the Doctor's plans, of sedating you and delivering you back to the ward.

She eyes you speculatively and finally nods, approaching you carefully.

"I won't let you" you hiss, backing against the door and sliding down, covering your head, nails digging into your scalp.

"Please don't make this any harder than it has to be" Jenny's voice breaks, but you're too far gone.

You slam your head against the door again and again as you try to change your reality but all that comes of it is a pounding head.

You whimper as The Doctor reaches to your forehead, ready to knock you out, until someone steps between you.

"I can't let you do this" Says Missy in a strong voice.

You look up to see she is standing between you and The Doctor and Jenny, both of whom look very taken aback.

You catch one of her thoughts, and it's muddled. You see yourself how you are now, pale, tear stained face and torn expression.

"Missy get out of the way, we're just trying to keep her safe" says The Doctor, frowning.

"No, you're forcing her against her will, and I can't let you do it." Missy sounds even a little surprised at her own words, which is nothing compared to your own shock.

"I'm taking her to her room. We'll talk about this later." With that she turns and offers you her hand. You can't see any more images from her so you guess she isn't going to hurt you, as they are usually the images that appear most consistently when you were in danger. You swallow and let her pull you to your feet.
