So this is in an alternate universe (AU) where the Doctor (John Smith) and Clara are married and are fighters in the Gallifreyean rebel army. Might wanna grab some tissues... I cried when I wrote this.

Enjoy, and don't kill me for killing feels!

"No!" A shriek tore through the air, and John Smith turned to see his wife Clara spreading her arms out as she leapt in front of him.

He knew what had happened, and he instantly stretched his arms out to catch her falling body, as if in slow motion. He placed her gently on the muddy grass.

Tears were already leaking from his eyes. "Oh, Clara..." Thebullet had shot straight into her stomach, and blood was spilling quickly from the open wound.

She sucked in a breath, and John pushed her silky brown hair from her face, stroking her grimy cheek with his thumb. "Clara..."

Clara opened her eyes to look into his startlingly green ones, dulled by their time serving in the Gallifreyean rebel army. "I always said I'd take a bullet for you," she whispered hoarsely, her every word obviously causing her pain.

"Sh don't talk. The medics will be here soon. You'll be fine, love."

"No John.... Remember?"

Of course he remembered. That day, where everyone in their squadron had died except them, she'd looked him directly in the eyes and said: "I'd take a bullet for you."

John didn't realize she actually meant it.

The medics tried all they could, but even the very best on their side couldn't save the notorious rebel beauty, Clara Oswald-Smith.

Her last words: "run you clever boy, and remember..."

The next day, the rebel army woke to find John dead on the floor next to his bed, a pool of dried blood surrounding him.

The suicide of John Smith and the loss of his wife, the best fighters in the rebel army, caused the rebels' army to weaken. Eventually, all of them died, ran away, or entered back into the Gallifrey services and were pardoned after much punishment and torture.

No one realized that love not only creates- it destroys.
