Chapter 8 – Death Is Just A Twist In The Journey Of Life.

Madison's P.O.V.

“DOCTOR! I'M COMING!” I yelled, sprinting towards him.

“DELETE!” The Cyberman screeched, looking over to me.

“SHUT UP!” I screamed, as I quickly pulled out my gun and shot it dead.

I finally reached The Doctor and sat down beside him. I pulled him onto my lap and tried to find a pulse.

“Come on, come on, come on. A Pulse? YES! Doctor? Doctor, hunny, you have to say with me now! Come on, wake up! You can't die!” I cried, tapping his face.

“Maddy?” He week voice called out.

“Yes, it's me, Doctor. Come on, stay with me.” I begged, as my eyes threaten to overload with unshed tears,

“Maddy, I got hit by a Cybermen's death ray. I'm not going to make it.”

“Of course you will, idiot! You're a Time Lord. Just regenerate!” I sighed, patting his arm.

“I'm not a proper Time Lord,though. I'm half human, which means I can't regenerate. I'm sorry.”

“You're not dying. You've got to have enough Time Lord in you to regenerate. Please, you can't die. I need you here.” I cried, letting my tears roll down my face.

“Oh, Madison. I am so, so sorry. I know I promised to help you get home, but you're going to have to do it alone.”

“Shut up. All you need regeneration energy to survive. Just have mine” I said, starting to get an idea.

“Then you wouldn't be able to regenerate again. No, Maddy. I can't let you do that.”

“Not, if we regenerated together.” I whispered, wiping away any tears.

“But you're not dying...No Maddy. Don't you dare! What if it goes wrong?”

“Hey, my life is you. Whatever version of you it is. If you're not here, I'll end up going soon after anyway.”

“Maddy. Please. Don't do this. Please!” He begged, as he started to get weaker.

“Shhh. There, there. I'll be fine. Guess whose immune to human weaponry!”

“What! Since when?” He asked, looking shocked.

“Like always! Did I never tell you!”

“NO!”

“Oh, sorry! I'll be right back ok! I don't want you to see this. Just, hang in there. It'll all be okay soon!” I laughed, grabbing my gun from the floor.

I carefully placed him on the floor, before getting up and jogging off round corner. I pressed my back against the wall and took a deep breath. I then quickly aimed the gun towards my heart and pulled the trigger.

“AHHH! FUCK!” I screamed, clutching my chest.

I dropped the gun and started to stumble back over to The Doctor. The pain was starting to become to much, so when I finally reached The Doctor, I dropped onto the ground next to him.

“Guess what?” I asked, turning my head to look at him.

“What?”

“That really, really hurt!” I sighed, rolling onto my side.

“You're an idiot, you know! But you're my idiot!” He smiled, placing a hand over mine.

“And you're mine. You ready for this?”

“Never am. What are you going to do?” He asked, as he slowly got up onto his knees with me.

“Save you.”

“But how are.....” He started to say before I cut him off.

I felt my regeneration energy start to build up, so I quickly smashed my lips onto his. At first he was to shocked to do anything, but eventually he kissed back. My regeneration energy began to flow into him, but he started to shake. It was all over son after, so I pulled away from him as he fell to the floor.

He had changed. He know looked like my Doctor.

I looked over my body to see I hadn't changed like normal. Thank god for being immune to Human weaponry! I'd have gone through so many regeneration!

Wait...I'm missing something important....OH GOD! The Doctor!

“Doctor? Doctor! Come on now. Wakey wakey! Get up! OI MORON! GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF UNCONSIOUS WORLD AND GET YOUR ARSE OFF THE FLOOR!” I yelled, hitting his chest.

“etrcytgcyhufrehgyuhdechyxunsj.....” He mumbled, as he eyes flickered open.

“DOCTOR!”

“Maddy?” He whispered, as his eyes open fully.

“Yeah, it's me, Doctor! Come on, you can make this. It may hurt for a bit but you can do it. I need you stay with me. Please, promise me you can?” I begged, sitting him up right.

“Hey, I'll be fine. Ohhhh. New voice! Never thought I'd get this again. Help me up?” He smiled, as he pushed off from the floor.

“You alright?”

“Me? I'm fine! I'm more than fine! This is brilliant!I always thought I would die, but you saved me!”

“Yeah, suppose I did. I did that to the other version of you so he wouldn't die. Guess it's a good trick!” I laughed.

“A brilliant trick! Thank you so much!” He cheered, pulling me into a hug and spinning me round.

“Yeah, alright. Put me down.” I muttered, feeling sick.

“Sorry, I'm just so happy! I'm suppose to be dead but I'm alive! Its amazing!”

“Yeah. Know the feeling.”

“Yeah... So? How do I look?” He asked, gesturing to his body.

“You....”

“WAIT! Important question first. Most important question in the universe right now.” He shouted, becoming serious.

“What is it?”

“Am. I. Ginger?”

“No.” I replied, rolling my eyes.

Time Lords. The ultimate ginger fans!

“WHAT?! Every time. Crying out loud!”

“You look fine though. You look like the other Doctor.” I smiled.

“Really? Well that actually isn't that surprising. We're kinda the same person, so having the same regeneration pattern seem quite a reasonable explanation.”

“You even sound like him. Guess I have got my Doctor.” I replied, quickly running over to our stuff and grabbing it.

“We going home already?” He asked, taking a case from me.

“We have too. Before U.N.I.T. or anybody else gets here. Come on, you can admire yourself when we get back.” I chuckled, running off towards the exit.

35 Minutes Later...

“DOCTOR! CAN YOU STEP AWAY FROM THE MIRROR FOR 2 MINUTES PLEASE, AS I'VE MADE FOOD!” I shouted up the small flight of stairs.

“Coming!” He called back, as I wondered into the kitchen.

We've been back at out flat for over 30 minutes now and ever since we got back, The Doctor had been in the bathroom the entire time. He keeps shouting occasionally, to see what he sounds like.

The Doctor soon bounded into the room, but soon stopped once he saw what food was lead out on the table for him.

“What the hell is that?” He asked, scrunching up his nose.

“Fish Fingers and Custard.” I replied, as if it was normal.

“But why?”

“I was with The Doctor long enough to know what his favourite food was. Now sit and try it.” I commanded, pointing to a chair.

“This is going to be disgusting.” He muttered, picking up a fish finger from a tray.

I lent against the door frame, as I watching him carefully dip it into the bowl of custard. He slowly popped it into the mouth, as he chewing it for a long time. Just as I thought he was finally about to swallow it, he suddenly jumped up and ran to the sink, where he spat out the food.

“Okay. So maybe not my greatest plan.” I sighed, rolling my eyes.

“That was the worst thing I have ever tasted. Why on Earth would you give that to me?” He questioned, sticking his mouth under the tap to rinse out his mouth.

“Because it was the other Doctor's favourite! I thought you would like it too! You're the one who said you had the same regeneration pattern as him, so I presumed you would have the same taste for food!” I explained, grabbing a Fish Finger and dipping it in Custard before eating it.

“He's a full Time Lord remember. We have different mouths!” He replied, watching in disgust as I ate the food

“Alright! I was only trying to help!” I shouted, walking out the kitchen.

“I know! But I just want an apple or some yogurt. Or maybe beans, bacon and buttered bread! You know what, I want a carrot!” He yelled, as I heard him rummage round the kitchen.

“The real Doctor hated all those things!” I called back, as I stormed up the stairs.

“Well I'm not the real Doctor!”

“No. And you never will be.” I muttered, as I slammed my bedroom door.

Huh, men!
