A/N: Okay I am so very sorry for not updating anything lately. I'm such a distracted person. So so sorry. This is the last chapter and up next is Blink!

Rose clutched her arms, seeking warmth from the sharp wind. Before her stood a gigantic building reaching up to the sky. Must be the Temple. Rose thought to herself. She trekked across the mud covered grass until she reached what seemed to be the door. It was a large panel and as she approached it, a motion sensor seemed to kick in and the wall slid aside.

Cautiously she walked in, peering down the tunnels to see if anyone was there. Warm air met her and she let out a sigh in relief. Gradually she began to make her way through the "Temple". More like a spaceship, Rose mused.

As she made her way along, she heard voices up ahead. Immediately hope sparked in her and she picked up her pace. Turning a corner, a smile quickly spread across her face as she saw the person she desired to see most.

"Doctor!" she cried happily. The Doctor turned to her voice in surprise before his face lit up and he ran toward her.

"ROSE!" he cheered as they met with a huge hug. She laughed and held him close as he lifted her off her feet, letting her burry her head in his shoulder.

"Oh, I've missed you so much," the Doctor said when he pulled back looking down at his fried. He placed a quick kiss to her head to her surprise before pulling her into another hug.

"What am I, chopped liver?" Mickey snorted as Rose had not even acknowledged his presence there.

"Mickey!" Rose smiled and the Doctor released her so she could go hug him too.

"Oh, you're filthy," Mickey scrunched up his nose. "What happened?"

"I, er, took the surface route," Rose bit her lip.

"Well at least you're safe now," the Doctor said. "Oh, and I suppose we should introduce you to our new traveling companion—"

"Mummy!" Rose blinked in surprise as the girl from the progenation machine called out and ran up to give her a hug. "Oh, it's great to officially be introduced to you!"

"Mummy?" Rose asked.

"Don't listen to them," the Doctor groaned. "Rose, just ignore them. They've been doing this stupid gig the whole time."

"I don't…" Rose frowned.

"Here, let me explain," Mickey put in with a grin. "So, Jenny here was born out of that machine thing that takes a tissue sample, and you know how it took one from the Doctor's hand? Well we figured that since you hold his hand like all the time, your skin cells would have been on his and then transferred over to the machine which would then make Jenny partly your daughter too!"

Rose raised her eyebrows in surprise and glanced over to the Doctor where he was covering his face with a hand.

"Well this is a lot to take in," Rose laughed a bit. "Blimey, only twenty and I've already got kid, who's only a few years younger than me. What would my mum say?"

"Always use protection," Mickey smirked.

"Mickey!" the Doctor squawked as his face turned red.

"Anyway!" Rose cleared her throat, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "So, it's Jenny, right?"

She turned to the girl who nodded with a wide grin on her face.

"Picked the name myself, I did," Mickey said with a hint of pride.

"Oh, you did?" Rose bit her lip holding back her smile. "Hm, well I'm not sure about being your mum, Jenny. I think you might have two dads."

Unable to hold back, she burst out laughing with Jenny and Mickey joining in a chorus of chortles.

"Rose!" the Doctor said in a mortified tone.

"I'm sorry," Rose laughed looking over at his horrified face. "It's just…"

She broke off again with a snicker.

"Oh, I give up," the Doctor put his hands up. "You are all mental."

"But you still love us, right?" Rose said with her tongue in teeth smile.

"Suppose so," the Doctor said with a mock scowl. "And Mickey I know what you're thinking and if you say a single word I'm gonna shove the sonic screwdriver down your throat."

Mickey just flicked his brows but didn't speak. The sound of gunfire came from below them again followed by Cobb's blaring voice.

"That's the General," the Doctor said as he unconsciously put a protective hand on Rose's arm. "We haven't got much time."

"We don't even know what we're looking for," Mickey frowned.

"Is it me," Rose sniffed. "Or can you smell flowers?"

"Yes," the Doctor agreed. "Bougainvillea." He turned to his crew and nodded, "I say we follow our nose."

Leading the way, the Doctor climbed down the flight of stairs close by with Rose, Jenny and Mickey following. In a short amount of time they reached the ground below where there it seemed to hold a vegetation room.

"Oh, yes," the Doctor smiled as they walked through the plants. "Yes. Isn't this brilliant?"

The air was warmer down there, the climate kept at a certain temperature to keep the plants growing strong. The Doctor shed his coat and tossed it on a metal bar as he and his companions walked up to a small sphere resting on a pedestal in the centre of the room.

"Is that the Source?" Mickey asked. Inside the clear sphere was a glowing green-and-yellow mist like substance. It turned and rolled within the ball, shining out and seeming to be begging for release.

"It's beautiful," Jenny whispered in awe.

Rose glanced to the Doctor, "What is it?"

"Terraforming," the Doctor stated. "It's a third generation terraforming device."

"So why are we suddenly in Kew Gardens?" Mickey looked around their surroundings.

"Cos that's what it does," the Doctor smiled. "All this, only bigger. Much bigger. It's in a transit state. Producing all this must help keep it stable before they finally—"

He was interrupted as both the Hath and General Cobb's soldiers rushed in from either side of the room. Guns were aimed and each party seemed about to fire at the other. Slight panic rushed over the Doctor and he reached out to push both Rose and Jenny behind him (Mickey having already cowered behind some plants). They were not going to hurt his family…

"Stop!" the Doctor put his hands out to them. "Hold your fire!"

"What is this, some kind of trap?" Cobb spat as he aimed his pistol at the Hath commander.

"You said you wanted this war over," the Doctor spoke quickly.

"I want this war won!" Cobb growled.

"You can't win. No one can," the Doctor straightened and addressed both armies. "You don't even know why you're here. You're whole history is just Chinese whispers, getting more distorted the more it's passed on. This is the Source." The Doctor pointed to the terraforming device. "This is what you're fighting over. A device to rejuvenate a planet's ecosystem. It's nothing mystical. It's from a laboratory, not some creator. It's a bubble of gasses. A cocktail of stuff for accelerated evolution. Methane, hydrogen, ammonia, amino acids, proteins, nucleic acids. It's used to make barren planets habitable. Look around you. It's not for killing, it's brining life. If you allow it, it can lift you out of these dark tunnels and into the bright, bright sunlight. No more fighting, no more killing."

Reaching out, the Doctor grabbed the terraforming globe and pulled it up from the pedestal. Raising it high he called out, "I'm the Doctor, and I declare this war is over!"

The Doctor threw the sphere to the ground. It shattered against the floor, releasing the gases and energy inside. The mist spread out in the air rising up to the sky slowly, shinning with life. Everyone watched in awe, mesmerized by the display. Gradually, one by one, the soldiers on each side started to set down their weapons. Only Cobb remained scowling, his fingers tightening around his gun.

The Doctor smiled and turned to look back to his friends. Rose met his eyes and returned his smile, making the Doctor's hearts warm.

"What's happening?" Jenny walked over to him, grinning at the mists in the sky.

"The gasses will escape and trigger the terraforming process," the Doctor looked down to his daughter.

"What does that mean?"

"It means a new world," the Doctor smiled. Jenny giggled with a nod. She turned her head and her eyes widened as she watched Cobb raise his gun aiming at the Doctor.

"No!" Jenny shouted as she pushed herself in front of the Doctor. The gun shot echoed through the ship as Jenny let out a gasp, her hand flying up to her sternum where the bullet had cut through her.

Immediately, the Doctor was at her side, catching her as her knees buckled. Terror coursed through him and he laid her carefully on the ground, his arms wrapped around her shoulders.

"Jenny!" he cried as Rose and Mickey rushed over to them. "Jenny?! Talk to me, Jenny."

The Doctor looked to Rose as she knelt down beside Jenny. The girl's eyes were blank and she hardly registered when Rose moved the girl's hand a bit to check the wound. The Doctor watched her carefully, his hearts pounding in his chest.

"Is she gonna be alright?" Mickey said softly.

Rose shook her head faintly and looked to the Doctor. Pain flashed through his eyes before he turned back to look at his daughter.

Jenny took a shaky breath and looked to the mist filled air floating above them.

"A new world," she said shakily. "It's beautiful."

"Jenny, be strong now," the Doctor tried to hide the pain in his voice. "You need to hold on, do you hear me? We've got things to do, you and me, hey? Hey?"

"And mum," Jenny smiled faintly. "Mickey too."

"Yeah, Mickey and your mum too," the Doctor forced a smile. "All of us. We can go anywhere. Everywhere. You choose."

A tear rolled down Jenny's cheek as her voice cracked, "That sounds good."

"You're my daughter," the Doctor brought a hand to her face and gently wiped her tears away. "And we've only just got started. You're going to be great. You're going to be more than great. You're going to be amazing. You hear me? Jenny?"

She gave a final shuttering breath, before Jenny's eyes lost their life and slowly closed. Her body went limp in the Doctor's arms. She was dead.

Bringing her close, the Doctor cradled her body, pressing his head against hers. She can't, she couldn't, she can't be gone… His hearts twisted in pain, agony engulfing him. But she's…

"Two hearts," the Doctor looked up and to Rose. "Two hearts. She's like me. If we wait. If we just wait."

The little hope he had in his chest extinguished when he saw the pain in Rose's face. She shook her head a bit.

"There's no sign, Doctor," Rose murmured. "There's no regeneration. She's like you, but maybe not enough."

The Doctor's eyes were wet as he whispered, "No. Too much. That's the truth of it. She was too much like me."

Turning back to Jenny, he leaned down to press a soft kiss to his daughter's forehead. Then he pulled back and blinked away the wetness in his eyes. There was nothing he could do. She was gone, dead. Just like the rest. They were all gone. His family… That was his curse, the one he would always bear. He would always be alone. Everyone would die and he would live on. It wasn't fair. He was the one that should die, he deserved it.

He felt the soft touch of a hand on his arm and turned to see Rose. Her eyes swam sadness, and she murmured his name. Without saying a word, the Doctor gently passed Jenny's body into Rose's arms, letting her hold her for him.

Pain transferred into burning anger and the Doctor stood up quickly from the floor. His teeth grit, he snatched Cobb's fallen gun from the ground and aimed it at the man's head where the human army was now holding him down. Fury burned through the Doctor and he tensed his finger on the trigger. All it took was a single pull and he would have revenge. No one would stop him…

Dropping his arm, the Doctor knelt beside his daughter's killer, not hiding the hatred in his eyes.

"I never would," he snapped. "Have you got that? I never would." He stood up again and now addressed the soldiers. "When you start this new world, this world of Human and Hath, remember that! Make the foundation of this society a man who never would!"

The soldiers bowed their heads to the Doctor as he glared down at them. He scanned his eyes around them before tossing the pistol to the ground, where it cracked against the concrete. His hearts were heavy as he returned to where Rose held Jenny. He crouched down next to her, and hesitantly brushed his fingers down Jenny's cold cheek. His eyes looked up and met Rose's and he found the same tears in her eyes that were brimming in his own.

—DW—

Golden light shown through the stained glass windows of the theatre, shining down on still form of Jenny. Daylight, the dawn of this new world. Rose turned her head to the light as Mickey, Cline, and the Hath commander did also.

"It's happening," she murmured. "The terraforming."

"Build a city, nice and safe underground, strip away the top soil, and there it is," Mickey mused and then glanced down to where Jenny laid across a small table. "And what about Jenny?"

Rose turned back to look at the Doctor. He was standing a little ways away from the rest of the group, his face blank and shoulders hunched. Hadn't said a word when they made their way back to the Human's theatre camp. The two armies had joined together now, realizing their errors. They hadn't decided on who would lead the warriors yet, but for now Cline and the Hath commander had taken up as equal generals.

Now the two and the time travelers had carried Jenny's body back to the camp and were waiting for the terraforming process to complete.

Cline turned to the Doctor and asked his permission, "Let us give her a proper ceremony. I think it'd help us. Please."

The Doctor didn't speak but looked across to Jenny. She looked so peaceful here. Like she was only sleeping. Without turning back to Cline, the Doctor nodded faintly giving his consent.

—DW—

"Jenny was the reason for the TARDIS brining us here," the Doctor finally spoke once they had safely returned to the TARDIS. Cline and his soldiers had blown away the rubble wall to let them back to their ship. They had said their goodbyes and parted knowing that the new world would be safe.

"We just got here too soon," the Doctor continued, his eyes staring down at the grated floor. "Which then created Jenny in the first place. Paradox. An endless paradox."

He was silent then as he moved over to the TARDIS controls, flipping switches and levers until the ship groaned and took them away from the new planet. The grinding of the time rotor echoed through the room only softening when they had reached the time vortex.

"Well," Mickey said after a while. "I'm gonna go to my room for a bit. Been a long day you know. See you two later."

He gave Rose a nod and then made his way down into the belly of the ship. Rose watched him go before turning to look at the Doctor. He was standing by the jump seat, staring down at the red Y-shaped scab along the back of his hand. His fingers traced the outline carefully, caressing the skin.

"Hey," Rose went up to stand in front of him. "How are you, Doctor?"

The Time Lord didn't speak or look to her.

"I'm sorry, Doctor," Rose murmured as she tentatively placed a hand on his shoulder. "I'm so sorry. I barely knew her, but it felt the same as when I lost my dad." The Doctor looked up to her as she continued, "I'm sorry, Doctor. All those things you've been ready to die for. I thought for a moment there you'd finally found something worth living for."

"There's always something worth living for, Rose," the Doctor smiled faintly. He reached forward and embraced Rose, burying his head into her hair as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders. They stayed that way for a while, sharing the comfort of each other to dull the pain.

"They're all gone, Rose," the Doctor pulled away slightly so he could look down at his companion. "You're the only family I have left."

She smiled softly and brought a hand up to softly touch his face, "I'm never gonna leave you, Doctor."

"You better not," he murmured and then pulled her close for another hug. He squeezed her tightly before releasing her.

"Where do you want to go?" he asked. "I think we could use a trip with just the two us for a bit."

"Let's find a new world," Rose smiled and took his hand. "For her."

The Doctor returned her smile this time and without releasing her hand he pulled a lever with his other, sending the TARDIS through the time vortex.

—DW—

Cline and the Hath draped a blanket over Jenny's still body. Just as the soldier placed a pillow under her head, he moved back in surprise as a golden mist came out of her mouth. Exchanging a glance with the Hath he leaned over the girl. Jenny's eyes flew open and she gasped filling her lungs with air. The two soldiers jumped back, their eyes wide.

A smile spread across Jenny's face and she grinned, "Hello, boys."

Without waiting for them to speak she leapt off the table and sprinted down the corridor, leaving the two dazed. Cline blinked at the Hath before shrugging and then both of them chased after her. A loud humming sound came and Cline said, "The shuttle."

Running over to the nearby intercom, he called out, "Jenny? What are you doing? Come back."

From inside the shuttle, Jenny began prepping the ship, her face full of smiles as her working hearts thudded in excitement.

"Sorry, can't stop!" she laughed. "What are you going to do, tell my parents?"

"But where are you going?" Cline said over the intercom.

"Oh, I've got the whole universe," Jenny smiled as the shuttle took off, racing away into the space sky. "Planets to save, civilizations to rescue, creatures to defeat, and an awful lot of running to do."
