The Girl Who Accidentally Ran Away (A Doctor Who Fan-fiction)

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Who Killed Rose Tyler?!

"Hey handsome, good to see you." We found the Doctor on an observation deck with a girl. The Doctor looked up at me.

"What are you wearing?" He asked, looking at my dress.

"Oh, this was the dress I was given to be on the Bachelor, with a sick twist." I replied. He stood up, taking his jacket off and handing it to me. "Thank you." I turned to the girl. "You wouldn't happen to have a hair-tie would you?"

"Oh, yeah, yeah I do." She took one off of her wrist, handing it to me.

"Thanks a billion, I'm Katherine." I said, pulling my hair up into a ponytail.

"Lynda."

"Any sign of Rose?" Jack asked.

"Can't you track her down?"

"She must still be inside the games. All the rooms are shielded, I only found Katherine because we were on the same floor."

"If I can just get inside this computer. She's got to be here somewhere." The Doctor said.

"You better hurry up, these games don't have a happy ending."

"You think I don't know that?!" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Doctor...this place is run by Bad Wolf Corporation," I said, changing the subject. "So however we got here, I don't think it's by accident."

"Here, patch that in, it's programmed to find her." Jack handed him his scanner.

"Thanks."

"Hi, Captain Jack Harkness."

"Lynda Moss." Lynda shook his hand.

"Nice to meet you, Lynda Moss."

"Do you mind flirting outside?" The Doctor asked.

"I was just saying hello!"

"For you, that's flirting."

"I'm not complaining." Lynda said.

"Muchos gracias." He kissed her hand.

"It's not compatible, this stupid system doesn't make sense!" He tossed the scanner to Lynda, yanking the front off of the computer. He took it again. "This place should be a basic broadcaster, but the systems are twice as complicated. It's more than just television, this station's transmitting something else."

"Like what?" Jack asked.

"I don't know. But Katherine's right, this whole Bad Wolf thing's tied up with us. Someone's manipulated my entire life. It's some sort of trap and Rose is stuck inside it. Found her, floor 407." Lynda gasepd.

"Oh my gosh, she with the Anne Droid! You've got to get her out of there!"  The Doctor grabbed my hand and we ran to the lift.

"Wait, didn't you have a sprained-"

"Yes, I had a sprained ankle, now I don't, transmat fixed it whoopdiedo." I answered, pulling him into the lift, followed by Lynda and Jack. I punched the number in and we started going.

"Come on, come on!"  It stopped and we ran out.

"Game room six, which one is it!?"

"Over here!" We followed Lynda.

"Step back, let me blast it." Jack said.

"You can't, it's a vital combination."

"Come on, come on, come on!"  He got it open and we ran in.

"Rose!" I shouted.

"Stop this game, I order you to stop this game!" 

"You are the Weakest Link."

"Look out for the Anne Droid, it's armed!" Rose screamed. She ran over to us and the beam shot into her back, causing her to disappear.

"ROSE!" I screamed. The Doctor fell to his knees in front of a pile of ash, and Lynda and Jack ran over, screaming questions at the producers. I fell to my knees beside the Doctor, tears in my eyes. We'd gone and done it again. Suddenly my arms were forced behind my back, and a gun was pressed to my head.

"Leave them alone!" Jack exclaimed.

"Sir, put down the gun or I'll be forced to shoot!" The guard said, pressing it harder into my skull. 

"YOU KILLED HER! YOUR STUPID FREAKING GAME SHOW KILLED HER!"

"I'm arresting you under Private Legislation 16 of the Game Station..." I stopped listening to what he was saying. Rose was dead...yet another human, killed because we let her get to close, because we got too comfortable.

I sat in a cell with Lynda and Jack, watching as they shoved the Doctor up against the grate and searched him. They pulled the sonic out of his pocket, turning him around again.

"Can you tell us the purpose of this device, sir?" They let him in, shoving him down beside me. "Tell us how you got on board."

"You're the ones who-" The guard grabbed my chin, cutting me off.

"I'm asking him." I shoved his arm off, standing up and getting close to his face.

"I really wouldn't put your hands on me again." I stated. He just looked at me, shoving me back down before turning back to the Doctor.

"Sir can you tell us who you are?" The Doctor didn't answer. "You will be taken from this place to the Lunar Penal Colony, there to be held without trial. You may not appeal against this sentence, is that understood?" He walked towards the opening of the prison cell.

"Let's do it." The Doctor said. I stood up, walking over to the guard and punching him square in the face, knocking him unconscious. Jack grabbed the top of the gate, kicking the second guard in the face, and the Doctor rammed the third's head into the wall. He grabbed his sonic, Jack grabbed his Defabricator and I took one of the guard's guns off of the wall.

"Katherine, you're a fighter. I never thought you'd have it in you." Jack said.

"They killed her friend," The Doctor said, "And now Katherine's angry. Angry Katherine is the most dangerous force in the universe." We got into the lift, and the Doctor took the defabricator while Jack had another gun that he had taken. "Floor 500." The doors opened revealing some very scared looking crew and a woman attatchd to the wall with a bunch of glowing wires.

"Ok, move away from the desk, nobody try anything clever. Everyone clear, stand to the side and stay there." Jack commanded. We made our way to the woman at the front. The Doctor aimed the gun at her.

"Who's in charge of this place?" He demanded.

"Nineteen, twenty,"

"This satellite is more than a Game Station."

"Seventy-nine, eighty."

"Who killed Rose Tyler?!" I asked, stepping closer to her.

"All staff are reminded that-"

"ANSWER THE QUESTION!" I shouted, holding the gun up.

"She can't reply." One of the guy's said. The Doctor turned on him. "Don't shoot!"

"Don't be so thick, like I was ever gonna shoot." He tossed the gun towards him.

"I still might." I replied.

"Captain, we've got more guards on the way up. Secure the exits. Take Katherine with you, she's in combat mode."

"Yes sir." Jack grabbed my arm, pulling me with him. "I'm kind of surprised you even know how to use that thing."

"I was a soldier once too, you know." I told him. "I may believe in good and second chances, but when the people I care about get hurt, I'm not nearly so forgiving."

"You're kind of scaring me." I shrugged.

"Good."
