"Offline." The computer states and the breeze and the Daleks and Cybermen being sucked into the void slows down. "No!" Rita screamed as Rose let go of the Magnaclamp to grab the lever and pull it up.

"I've got to get it upright!" She shouts to them pulling on it to make the suction more powerful. She gave it one more push and it clicked into place starting the suction back up. The Daleks and Cybermen then are pulled in again screaming.

"Online and locked."

"Rose, hold on! Hold on!" The Doctor shouts then reached out his arm. Rita screamed watching the girl then get horizontally pulled. She held on to the lever until her fingers slipped. The Doctor and Rita both screamed out as the blonde who was pulled towards the void to be taken away forever.

Somehow Pete appears just before Rose was sucked in catching her and taking her back to Pete's world with his daughter in his arms. The wind then began to slowly die down until there was nothing left. The void closed on itself and closed for good trapping Rose in the Parallel World. Rita fell to the floor out of energy and being purely tired. She panted a few tears slipping down her face out of sadness quietly crying over her friend while the Doctor walked over to the wall and placed a cheek and hand against it. Rita slowly pulled herself over to the wall and leant against just staring. The Doctor turned around and slid down beside the brunette and pulled her into his chest holding her close as if he believed she would be taken next. After a few minutes of mourning the brunette stopped her face the same as the Doctors, the two of them looking completely broken, the Doctor from pain of Rose almost dying and Rita from being completely exhausted. They stood up together and slowly walked away from the wall, from Torchwood.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Three days past and the Doctor mostly stayed in his room in the TARDIS, that was when Rita was either sitting in the jump seat of the console room deep in thought about her friend or who she was unless when she was in the Libary curled up by the fire reading anything and everything to get her mind off the what happened. When Rita was sleeping which was actually around every other day since she had lost a lot of energy from trying too hard with everything the Doctor sat in the console room trying to find something somewhere, just a gap big enough to say goodbye, to say sorry for being the reason she almost died multiple times. The Doctor sighed in the console room staring at the scanner and seeing nothing yet again until there was a beep. He jolted his head up and stared at it. "Of course!" he jumped up then ran around the console pressing buttons and flicking switches. "Rita!" He screamed running down the hall as fast as he could and then skidding to a stop by her bedroom door. He frantically banged on it hoping for the brunette to answer.

"Doctor what is-" He cut her off as she opened her bedroom door confused about his sudden outburst, he then dragging her away almost causing her to almost fall face first into the floor. "I found it!" He shouted over his shoulder. "A gap!" He ran around the console. "Just a small gap but it's a gap!" He looked at the brunette who slumped down in the jump seat. "Rita?" He looked at her sadly then softly spoke. "We're going to say goodbye to Rose" She jolted her head up and her eyes grew wide in realisation then jumped up and moved around the TARDIS watching the Doctor fly them to a supernova.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Rose walked up the beach and an image of the two Time Lord's appeared. Rita smiled sadly at the blonde. "Where are you?" She asked them

"Inside the TARDIS." The Doctor replied. "There's one tiny little gap in the Universe left, just about to close, and it takes a lot of power to send this projection. We're in orbit around a super nova. We're burning up a sun just to say goodbye.
