Rose had already been through hell. And then been through hell again. When she'd woken up, she'd thought she'd been having a strange dream, but couldn't put her finger on it. Something about two Doctors. But dreaming about him wasn't strange, not when he'd left her behind and all she wanted to do was go help him. And then she'd figured out how and gotten the TARDIS back to him and he'd made his change and she'd moved on. Everything had been just fine, until the damned cybermen and those stupid Daleks and god, she really hated them all.
A heartbroken Rose had been sobbing her heart out in her not-real-Dad's stupid dimension. It wasn't his fault. Or her mum's. Or Mickey's, either, though he probably had wanted this all along. But she couldn't help snapping at people. They wanted her to leave, they were trying to get her to go, and part of her was still determined that wall was going to open right back up. She stayed with her head leaned against it, sure she could hear straight through to the other side, to the world she'd grown up in, even though there was nothing but silence on that end.
But when she opened her eyes again, she wasn't there. Not where she had been. She was in a house. Now that just wasn't right. How the hell... She looked around to see if she'd been zapped into another dimension again but didn't see her non-Dad anywhere. The room was old and dusty and smelled musty and kind of gross, really. And it reminded her of somewhere. It was all coming back. Slowly, but definitely coming back.
She heard a voice then and Rose sniffled back the sobs she'd been heaving only moments before. Wherever she was, someone else was there, too. And she had to help. "Hello?" she called back, wandering into the hallway. "Over here! Call out again, I'll try and follow your voice." Well, at least it got her mind off of things.
