I Found A Little Blue Box

Remembering

THE DOCTOR

"Tell me about Rose."

Rose... just hearing her name had brought back too much to handle.

I dragged my hands down my face, wiping away the impending tears.

"She... she was kind. She was the only one to ever show mercy to a Dalek, one of the most feared species in the galaxy. She was brave. She witnessed the end of the only world she has ever know but still she held hope. She was smart, sarcastic, hilarious!" A smile somehow managed its way to my face. "But she was also reckless, but that's why I liked her. She was everything... and now..." I stopped before I did something I would regret.

"How did you meet her?" Teaganne asked. That girl, so full of questions!

"She was never supposed to meet me." I thought way back to my first in counter with Rose. "She was a mistake, an accident. A beautiful accident..."

Teaganne hopped into a nook on one if the choral supporting the control room. "All of the Earths plastic was coming to life, and she just so happened to stumble right onto the battle field." I laughed.

"I don't know what made her stay... she could have run away from all the trouble by just saying no..." I sighed, "But where would I be then, Eh? Probably dead! Or on my last life..."

"What happened to her?"

"There was a portal... a portal into the void. She tried so hard to hold on..." I paused and swallowed back my tears. "But she couldn't. She was falling."

"She... she died?"

"No. She didn't die. Her father saved her, but she was trapped in a parallel dimension. I had to close the breech in order to make sure the Earth was safe."

"So she's alive?"

"Just." I assured her.

"Oh thank god!"

"But because I closed the breech, even the Tardis can't cross over now."

"What were you looking for in the library then?" She scrunched her eybrows together and pointed down the hall.

"I thought I might at least be able to communicate with her, but I can't find anything."

"Can I try?"

I sighed out a long breath, "Well... it wouldn't hurt."
