That's Very Me

Last

He couldn't believe it for a moment, and then he could. The entirety of the high council was staring at Oswin. She blinked, eyes flaring with gold light.

"The Bad Wolf..." Rassilon said in wonder. He bowed slightly and returned to his place. He nodded and then opened his mouth slightly. He seized the Master's arm and dragged him with him to gateway. The Master shot out blindly. Rage clouding his senses. Oswin dove out of the way, and the shot hit the Whitepoint diamond, shattering it and taking the high council and Gallifrey back to the time lock. Wilf knocked four times on the glass of the operating booth. Oswin snatched a screwdriver up and unlocked the door, letting Wilf out. She knew what the Doctor would do, but he didn't have any regenerations to waste. She turned and surprised him, pulling him down by his tie to kiss him. And then she gave him a look.

"I love you, I'm sorry." She punched him and he fell back, tripping. She dropped the screwdriver and entered the booth, closing the door. Her hand came down on the lock and the radiation funneled into the booth. She stood straight, trembling. And then someone slammed down the button on the other side. The radiation was funneled into both. She was horrified to see the Doctor staring at her, grimly. He pressed a hand up against the window between them and she did the same. He'd absorbed most of the radiation, but she had some and she wasn't as lucky as he thought. They both tumbled out of the booths, falling. He moved closer to her, pulling her to him as the glass doors shattered. He kept her face protected, but it didn't matter. The Master had been smarter than they realized, he had hurt the one thing that would matter to both the Doctor and Rassilon. He kept his face pressed into her hair, and his arms wrapped around her. And he felt it. Her side was wet with blood. He drew back in horror. She gave him a small smile and he realized how much like Rose she looked. He kissed her gently.

"I love you too. Now, before we go, we need to say our goodbyes."

"What about Donna?" Wilfred asked. The Doctor looked up at him sadly.

"I can't take her with me Wilfred. I'm dying. We both are, the energy we're holding onto, is too dangerous. We'll come back, but not right away."

"She'll be alright anyway, I sent Lee to find her."

"Lee? As in the Lee from the library?" She nodded. He grinned and picked some glass from her hair. They stood and she hissed in pain. He grimaced. Oswin looked at Wilf, she gave him a brief hug.

"Thank you." She drew back and the Doctor wiggled his fingers. She grinned and took his hand. They went to the Tardis.

"Who do we need to see?" She asked. He gave her a small smile.

"Donna and Lee." They did, stopping briefly to say goodbye. Donna never noticed them, but it was her wedding.

They stopped to see Jack and say goodbye. Oswin held him tightly, crying softly. They left him with a man named Alonso.

Sarah Jane was next. Oswin dashed out to knock Luke out of the way of a speeding car, the Doctor beside her. They waved goodbye to Sarah Jane.

Mickey and Martha were last. They were fighting Sontarans. The Doctor and Oswin smiled seeing the couple kiss. They took down the rogue Sontaran and waved goodbye. Mickey and Martha were shocked to see someone with the Doctor. They could see the gold tracing through both the Doctor and Oswin's veins. Martha was crying, happy.

"He isn't alone, he's got someone to spend his life with." She said through the tears. They went back to the Tardis together and moved apart. And then everything exploded. Fire ripped through them and exploded in the console room in dramatic bursts of fire. Rose fell first, and then Doctor followed not long after. They both jerked upright as the Tardis tumbled through the air, falling from the vortex.
