Words, screaming at her from the walls.
Huge and dark and towering, as heavy as the panic twisting her insides. Rose wanted to scream, yet she barely managed to suck enough oxygen into her lungs to breathe properly. She was trapped – she was saved – but those words still came for her, relentless. She knew then, intuitively, that they did come for her. Her Doctor, he wasn't the Bad Wolf. She was the one who had to find out what it meant. She was the one who had to find a way. To come back.
You can't just send me away, you hear? she thought fiercely, and then wanted to laugh at herself in hysteria.
The TARDIS, it had to be the key. It was all he had left her, but oh, it was everything.
Save him. Save him, she repeated in her head like a mantra as she fought her way closer to the ship, to its heart, the consciousness he must have perceived and she was too small, too human to comprehend.
Human brain. Human strength – hope, love, desperation and utter recklessness. That was all she could give him, and she would – until the very end of her resilience, and then some.
Something burst open and something washed over her. Beyond human. Great and shining and dark and it burned and she saw, she saw everything. Could do anything.
I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself.
Rose Tyler smiled, and came back for her Doctor in a halo of blinding light.
