The Secrets of Sarah Smith

Spoilers

Sarah made it back to the main space ship in record time. She ran the whole 15 minutes to get there and ran through the ship to get to the main room were The Doctor, River and Wyatt were waiting.

As soon as Sarah entered the room a body crashed into her pulling her into a bonecrushing hug. Sarah's vision was blocked by a mass of blonde curls.

"River you're crushing me" Sarah croaked barely able to speak River was hugging her that tight.

"Sorry but you did it! you beat him" River beamed at her.

The Doctor gave River a confussed look, Clearly this behavior wasn't normal for River and Sarah wasn't sure what to think of that. Her mind had completely cleared now altho the music still echoed around her mind it didn't bring the same fear as before but she still didn't like it.

"What do I do now? Im just as bad if not worse than that man in your memory. How do I make it right?" Wyatt asked not turning round.

It was The Doctor that answered before Sarah even opened her mouth.

"No your not. Your just lost and hurt. We all do things we aren't proud of when we're hurt. Whats important is what you do next. Show The Tellers how to live in piece. Be the driving force for good, show mercy, show courage but most of all show love for life because love is a promise. Promise to protect and value all life no matter what. History says that The Great Warrior dies prove history right for a change. Let the Warrior die so Wyatt can live. Make Mother Earth proud" The Doctor had walked over to stand beside Wyatt as he talked staring out the window with him. An unspoken bond of damaged men.

"We gotta go come on River. Sarah you coming?" The Doctor said suddenly after a few minutes of silence.

Sarah was so torn she wanted to go traveling but Wyatt was her son she didn't want to leave him again

"Go Mother Earth. I can hardly be a barer of peace in your name if your with me" Wyatt smiled and turned to face her.

Sarah pulled him into a hug and kissed his cheek "I love you son forever and always, and I am so proud of you" she whispered in his ear before running after The Doctor.

A while later the three of them were in The TARDIS. The Doctor tinkering with some of the buttons on the console, River was running her fingers along the edge of the console lovingly as she walked round it reaching Sarah who was staring into the glowing colum feelings of guilt pride and sorrow flowing through her. She could feel a small brush of peacefulness brush her mind thanks to The TARDIS.

"You feel connected to her don't you?" River asked quietly already knowing the answer

"She feels safe like home" Sarah answered barely more than a whisper

"She loves you" River stated not requiring a reply so Sarah didn't give one. They sat in silence for a minute soaking in the peaceful energy The TARDIS was projecting to them.

"River who am I to you? You obviously know me in the future and I'm guessing we are close" Sarah asked the question that had been bugging her since the musem. god that felt like so long ago now.

Rivee gave her a huge smile "Spoilers" She said in an almost flirty voice.

"Right River time for you to go" The Doctor interupted them making Sarah jump slightly

"Tired of me already sweetie" River flashed The Doctor a flirty smile coyly walking over to his side.

"One phychopath per TARDIS" The Doctor quoted River from so many centuries ago from The Doctors point of view

"Who's rule is that?" River asked innocently. Obviously she hadn't said it yet from her point

"Spoilers" The Doctor grumbled "Back at the musem 5 minutes after we left, Wanna finish the tour Sarah?" The Doctor asked

"I think I've had enough of the musem for now. I'm gonna go shower and collapse in bed" Sarah declared standing up.

"Bye Sarah" River said sadly hugging Sarah "Bye River"

Sarah left the console room. The Doctor and River were quiet until they were sure Sarah was far enough away not to hear.

"Who is she River?" The Doctor asked carefully

"She's Sarah" River shrugged

"You know thats not what I mean" The Doctor snapped

"Temper now Doctor" River flirted

"River" The Doctor said in a warning tone

River gave a small laugh "Spoilers Doctor" She breathed in his ear sending invoulntery shivers down his spine

"But you'll find out soon enough. You'll know who she is and most importantly What she is" River whispered in his ear before disapearing out The TARDIS door leaving The Doctor completely shocked and confussed.
