Almost Alone (#Wattys2016)

Chapter Five

Clara's POV
I was excited about finding Jenny, and I liked Jack. He was cute and sweet, but I could tell the Doctor didn't like his flirting. Oh well. He's sweet, and I like him. Now, our task is finding the Alexis girl. We were going to meet her at Winter Quay, so long as she comes. We were watching the Doctor and Jenny running around, smacking stuff on the console. Every once in awhile, they'd crash into each other, and then jump up, and they'd just keep running. It was funny, and then, we arrived. I opened the door, and then screamed, slamming the door behind me, locking it. There had been a monk looking person kind of singing to another monk, but neither of them had heads. I leaned against the door, breathing heavily. Jack caught my arm, and the Doctor punched another button, swinging a screen around to where he was. He grimaced.

               "Demon's Run. Those are headless monks. We shouldn't be here. Why were we brought here? I thought I destroyed it! It's also five years before I first arrived here. Someone is probably crossing timelines." Jenny peeked at the screen, pulling a tranquilizer gun out. The Doctor looked a little skeptical about that.

                 "Dad, I've got ten darts in here. It knocks just about any creature out for about twenty-four hours. It's the only weapon type thing I've used since what you told me. I've also got another fifty or so darts. They don't kill unless you use more than one." He sighed, looking a little relieved.
                 "Okay. We'll probably have more than ten to worry about, so bring more with-" She stopped him, pulling out a small tablet-sized bag that had more crayon-size darts in it.
                "-And you've got us covered. Well then, there's only one thing to say. Allon-sy!"  I swung open the door, and both monks fell to the ground within five seconds of the door opening. Jenny grinned at me, and I grinned back. This girl was awesome! Then, another came 'round the corner, and it was down before it could sing. Then, we heard a woman screaming.

                "No! No, don't take her! Help me, please! Someone! Help!" Jenny and the Doctor looked at each other, and then took off towards the screams. Jack and I looked at each other, shrugging, and we followed. The Doctor ran past a door, which Jenny stopped at, and we crashed into her, since she stopped so suddenly. She and I peeked in, seeing a woman with blonde hair on her knees with her head in her hands, sobbing. The Doctor came back, sonicing the door, and it slid open silently. He went in, putting an arm around her. She jerked back, backing herself against the wall, her hair in front of her face so we couldn't see it.

                  "Hey, it's okay. We're here to help. I'm the Doctor, and there's also Clara, my daughter Jenny, and Captain Jack Harkness. What happened?" Her head jerked up, and she brushed her hair out of her face. The Doctor gasped.
                  "Rose? Rose Tyler?! It's you!" She started crying, and he hugged her, nearly crying as well. I gasped. I had flipped through Rose's album so many times, I knew what she looked like, but this woman looked like an old, grief-stricken version of her. She still had her blonde hair and beautiful brown eyes, but they were distant and sorrowful. Her blonde hair was matted and tangled, and she was struggling to smile.

                  "Who did they take?" She nearly burst into tears.
                   "You remember the human clone you sent with me?" He nodded, looking slightly confused.
                   "As you probably guessed, we got married. After our honeymoon, I found out I was pregnant. When I was about eight months pregnant, he was killed by the cybermen, and they had created a gate that can send people or aliens to parallel universes, no side affects. I landed here, and a woman offered to help me. She help me with Lexis for the first four months, and she just stole her. She stole my daughter." At that, she burst into tears. The Doctor wrapped his arms around her, and she buried her face in his chest.
                    "What's her name? We met a girl who looks like you, so I think it might be her." She took a shaky breath.
                    "Alexis. Alexis Rose Tyler. We decided she'd have my name, since James Smith doesn't really exist here nor there." He pulled back, placing his hands on her shoulders.
                    "We found her! She's thirteen, and she's in the past, but it's her! It's really her!" Rose laughed, and I saw what he had captured in the photos. A beautiful woman who was willing to go into that danger, just to save the ones she loves. We all ran for the TARDIS, and Jenny knocked a few more monks on the way. When we got back, Rose headed for the wardrobe room. When she came back out, she was wearing jeans, a pink top, and a soft blue jacket, and red converse. She had brushed her hair, and her eyes had a playful gleam in them already, and I was ready for an adventure with her.
