TEAGANNE
"Right, that's the Zeiton situation figured out..."
I watched from afar, studying a book of astrology I had found in the TARDIS library, assuming that such information would help in the future.
'Doctor... My star... '
I sat up straight, dropping the book on supernovas to the grating on the floor. "Was that the TARDIS?"
'Yes, my star'
"What is it?" The Doctor asked.
'Hurry, it's burning away!'
"Right!" He picked up his speed, flipping levers and pressing buttons.
"What? What's burning?"
"It's strange that you would be reading that book..." He responded, shoving his hands deep into his coat and nodding to the papers on the ground.
"Um just... You know... Required reading!"
"No that's not... The Bad Wolf sighting I told you about?"
"Y-yeah?"
"It's the name of a Supernova. To send a transmission through dimensions requires a lot of power - the exact amount of power that a burning sun creates. "
"You're gonna burn up a sun?" His next words melted my young fragile heart, and I yearned to be loved by someone that much,
"Just to say goodbye... Oh yes..." He whispered, his soft smile not even hiding half of the emotions blazing in his deep brown eyes.
"Well... What are you waiting for then?"
"I'm scared, Teaganne..."
"Oh, Doctor..." I moved closer to him and enveloped him in a tight comforting hug. He accepted it fully, wrapping his arms around my shoulders and actually crying into my neck.
'Doctor'
"It's time" I whispered to him, letting him go and moving to the side.
'Call to her, Doctor'
"Rose..." He whispered, fighting back his tears.
"Rose!"
'You can feel her...'
He nodded, violently wiping at his face.
"What do I say!" He ran to me, his hands visibly shaking as I took them.
"Tell her." I whispered. "Please, tell her you love her."
He nodded and moved back into his position, drying his face, as the TARDIS told him what to do.
"You can do it Doctor..." I whispered before finally, Rose's figure slowly emitted in a hologram in front of the Doctor.
"Where are you?" she asked.
"Inside the TARDIS." he responded, overjoyed to see her face again. "There' one tiny little gap in the Universe left, just about to close, and it takes a lot of power to send this projection." He glanced over at me.
"I'm in orbit around a supernova. I'm burning up a sun to say goodbye." He smirked, reciting my thoughts from before perfectly.
"You look like a ghost..."
"Hold on." He pointed his sonic screwdriver at the TARDIS and vamped up the transmission, making Rose's image opaque, and hopefully doing the same for her.
I watched, heartbroken, as she tried to touch him. "Can I?"
"Im still just an image." It hurt a lot for him not to touch her, I could tell. I could almost feel his pain radiating through the TARDIS. "No touch."
"Can't you come through properly?"
"The whole thing would fracture. Two universes would collapse."
"So?" she joked. Same old Rose...
"Where are we?" he asked, changing the subject. "Where did the gap come out?"
"We're in Norway."
"Norway, right."
"About fifty miles out of Burgen. It's called Darlig Ulv Stranden."
"Dalek?"
"Darlig. It's Norwegian for bad. This translates as Bad Wolf Bay!"
She stopped and asked, "How long have we got?"
He looked to me and I checked the TARDIS. I held up three fingers.
"About three minutes."
"I can't think of what to say!" she started to crack, her voice beginning to falter.
The Doctor cleared his throat, "You've still got mister Mickey, then?"
"There's five of us now. Mum, Dad, Mickey... and the baby."
He smiled to not show his pain for what she could answer. "You're not?"
"No it's mum." he sighed in relief. "She's three months gone. More Tylers on the way."
"And what about you? Are you?"
"Yeah, I'm back working in the shop..." She said with a twinge of sarcasm.
"Oh... good for you."
"Shut up! No i'm not. There's still a Torchwood on this planet. It's open for business. I think I know a thing or two about aliens."
"Rose Tyler," The Doctor grinned. "Defender of the Earth."
He stumbled to change the subject, "You're dead, officially, back home. So many people died that day and you've gone missing." He breathed out. "You're on the list of the dead. And here you are, living a life day after day! The one adventure I can never have..."
"Am I ever going to see you again?"
I could feel his hearts breaking as he said the one thing he didn't want to confirm. "You can't."
"What are you going to do?"
"Oh, I've got the TARDIS. Same old life, last of the Timelords."
"On your own?"
I decided to step in, give the Doctor some time to wind back up.
"Rose..."
"Teaganne?" I nodded, starting to cry myself.
"I helped him find you, Rose." she smiled through her veil of tears. "The hero of the universes needed help to contact-" I stopped before I let it out, if it was going to be said, the Doctor needed to say it.
"I had to say goodbye." he tried, starting to shatter faster than before.
"I-" She started but stopped, covering her face as tears ran down. "I love you."
This is it! I stepped behind the Doctor, watching the whole scene play out.
"Quite right, too." He smiled weakly. "And I suppose, If it's my last chance to say it..."
I watched his tears begin to fall as the image began to fade and her cries became an echo.
"Rose Tyler..." and she was gone. "I love you."
He still said it. Even though she may not have heard it, he said it. Though it was muffled by his hands covering his tears, I heard it. "I love you so much."
I grabbed his arms and let him cry. What he needed now, was to get it out. His rather loud sobbing echoing through the TARDIS as the ship sang to him. She sang of their story, every day spent together from the moment he took her hand. I started to cry to for she sang to me too, as she told me the story - of the Doctor and his Rose
