Her name was in my mouth when I awoke.

"Amy!" I screamed. I pressed my hand to my chest, gasping for air.

I held my head, my face streaming with tears.

"Rory," I whispered weakly.

I curled up in the corner of my cell, and let all their names enter my mind.

Rose. Martha. Donna. Pel. Henry. Izzy. Mea. Oliver. Amy. Rory. River.

I sobbed.

My family. My friends.

The world drifted away as their faces flashed before my eyes.

The last thing I saw before I slept was my family, standing outside our house as it burned.

He hugged me quickly.

"Arms, legs, and face intact," I said. The Doctor smiled.

"Good," he cheered, taking me hand. I smiled, and quickly exited the cell.

I quickly pulled the Doctor through the hallways, and we finally came upon the TARDIS.

"Home at last," I smiled, stepping into the blue box.
