Right, so I just had the sudden inspiration to write this, so here goes. This is what just went through my head. What if the Face of Boe hadn't been talking about the Master? What if the Doctor had encountered a different person from his past? How will this affect his life and relationships? And what does this have to do with Rose Tyler? Read on to find out! And don't forget to review!


The Face of Boe was dying. Finally after so many millennia he could finally join his loved ones, wherever they were. Despite his many, many years, he still believed that there was something beyond death. There had to be, otherwise it was all for nothing. He looked at the Doctor. He didn't know who he was yet, but that was fine. He still had to tell him his greatest secret. The secret that he had been holding on to for such a long time. It should have left his mind, as had other memories, but it stuck with him. So few things had, but this was the clearest.

He could feel himself slipping away. It was now or never. He opened his telepathy and told the Doctor. He told him his secret. The thing that kept him waiting, holding out for that last meeting.

"You are not alone."

And then he was gone. He could finally join all those he had lost. Alice, Steven, Gwen, Owen, Toshiko, Suzie, Gray, John, Martha, Donna. Ianto. God how he had missed Ianto.

The Doctor watched, shocked. What did he mean? He was not alone..? But that's not possible... It couldn't be. Everyone was gone. All of them. He was the Last. He told Martha as much when she asked. He knew without a doubt that it was a mistake, or a joke, or-or something. It wasn't real. The Face of Boe was lying, of that he was sure. So he put it out of his mind and carried on. He travelled with Martha, trying to have the fantastic life he promised Rose. Rose. His reason for living, his beautiful pink and yellow human. He forgot 'you ar not alone' and replaced it with Rose.


Okay, yeah that was a short chapter, but I'm trying to prolong this! Though if I even get ONE review I promise to upload the next chapter as soon as it's done. Trust me, I'm the Doctor. Okay, not really, but I can hope. Bye!
