"I might..." she began quietly, and then repeated herself louder. She failed to finish her sentence, so started another.
"I won't let this man kill me." she said with fortitude, "But I need to know...do you want him dead?"
She stood firm. She had killed before, she could kill again.

Rose smiled up at him, squeezing his hand with hers. She nodded, looking up into his eyes.
"I'll try my best. I'll look after you."
She turned to Jack, signalling for him to join them. She would give him the option though. If he didn't want to come with them but stay here, that was his choice.

Elle had cried herself to sleep in a corner of the shower. Then the door swung open and she jumped up, her eyes shooting open and her hand instinctively flew up and sparked.
Noah stuck his head in. He had wandered forever it seemed. He stumbled back past the blood and mayhem and to the bathroom Sylar had been pulled from, Elle was still huddled up inside. He was shocked she had not made her escape.
She looked terrible, miserable. He knew her weak points, and he knew how dangerous she was. Deep down, she was still that little gbirl dragged into the company building, holding many secrets in her tiny form. Rainbows and unicorns... somewhere within the wretch of a woman, was that same little girl.
Elle lifted her head and glared.
"I'm not here to hurt you," Noah stated.
Elle did not seem convinced.
"There are plenty of people who would like to though," Noah added. If he could soothe her, if he could connect with that child then he could get her to do as he willed and then tie her up securely in the control room.
"I've known you since you were a very small girl," Noah continued. "I looked out for you to the best of my ability. You can trust me. I'm not the one who stole your memories, who made you into a killing machine. You are beyond the executioner title, Elle. Peter saw it in you, I do not doubt it."
Elle's eyes welled with tears. "Don't talk about Peter."
"Suit yourself then. You can stay here and sulk, or you can help us find Sylar."
"Oh, Now I'm your mentalcase detector?"
"And now you're going to act as though you don't feel for the monster?"
Elle pouted and offered a hand to Noah. He pulled her to her feet.
"I'll help you if you help me get my baby back."
"Fine," Noah agreed. It was better thatthe child were with her mother than the meglomaniac.

Remy gave a weak smile and stroked her cheek. "I'm grateful."
He followed her gaze to Jack, "We'll be back here if you'd like to stay here and...speak with the Doctor. Or you can come with and help me deal with my mother. I do not know how to operate anything here but if you can perhaps use the technology to locate my father...or get me these places listed thatthe Doctor spoke of the other Doctor knowing. Your help is crucial. Then I will transport us to each location. For now I'd like to gather my bearings, find my mother and," he squeezed Rose's hand. "Soothe Rose's tears."

A high pitched squeal, like too much static split through his senses, causing him to fall to the side. He rolled in the grass and dirt, clutching his head and ruining his suit. Something was happening. Something...
"Help me!" He screamed.

Rose nodded at Jack.
"You worked with the Doctor on the TARDIS a number of times, I'm sure you can find some way of locating him. Remember, she's been hurt, so she may not operate as well. Just keep her soothed. We'll be back as soon as we find Elle and Noah. I promise."
She smiled as Jack set to work, attempting to find out for her. She turned her gaze back to Remy, smiling reassuringly.
"Come on, let's go find them."

The Doctor rolled over, tried to grab the Master's hands but he was wriggling too much. What the hell was going on? Why was he suddenly in pain like that? Maybe some echo of his new abilites? The Doctor managed to steady him, his grip tight on the Master's arms.
"What is it? What's wrong!"

The Doctor looked up and smiled. He was sending spike after spike of static down the Masters psychic frequency, in hope that he might cause him to collapse and jump to safety. Hopefully somewhere that they could pick him up.
He looked up at Angela, dying to explain to her his genius plan. His face feel as he heard her words.
"The Doctor wants him fixed." He said quietly, unsure if that was a wise idea, but not wishing to give up on his old friend completely. He did however think that the intimate connection the two had shared would cloud his other selves judgment. But then, his judgment was probably equally clouded.
"We need to prevent him from jumping. Killing is the last resort." He told her, relinquishing his position at the console for a moment to sooth her. He could see a world of pain and experience in her eyes, and knew that she had no doubt been in horrible situations. No doubt killed for in self defense, or for the preservation of those important to her. He would not however make her kill in cold blood.
"We'll see how it goes."

The pain was too much. The pain was going to kill him. He was barely aware of the Doctors hold on him. Barely aware of his surroundings. He clenched his eyes shut in a bid to force the pain away. He had to escape...
The sound of numerous cars whizzing by brought him back to reality. The pain was gone. He prised open one eye an dlooked around. He was in London once more. His safe place. The place his powers took him on reflex. The Doctor lay on top of him, obviously disoreintated by the jump.
"Home sweet home." He whispered, stroking his pets hair.

The Doctor didn't think. He grabbed the Master and hugged him tightly, keeping him against his chest like he was going to vanish again, his ears still full of the Master's howls of pain. It had been such a dreadful noise. And such a dreadful feeling to be powerless when the Time Lord he loved was suffering by someone's hand. Cause this had been provoked, he was certain of it. Probably by Nine, he realised.
People were looking at them frowning. They were still on the ground, the Doctor holding the Master's head against his chest like he never to let go. It must be a strange show indeed for humans. He released the Master a fraction when the other Time Lord said something he didn't quite hear. He was too busy reveling in the feeling of his hand in his hair.
"We should..." He began, but the Master shot him a look and for some unfathomable reason, he stopped talking.

He didn't want the Doctor to talk right now. He was basking in the near silence of his mind. He knew humans were walking past, wondering why on Earth was their Prime Minister lying on the pavement, inamatly holding another man. But he couldn't care. Arch Angel Network was in place, and soon enough it would be strong enough that no human would ever defy him. He smiled and sat up, cupping the Doctors cheeks in his hands.
"Fancy a cup of tea?"

Remington nodded and found his way down one of the halls. "I don't even know the first place to begin looking."
He brought a hand to his forehead and sighed. "I keep thinking I should be at home, poolside with a bourbon. Now...I'm dealing with the death of my sister. It was inevitable...it was supposed to happen. I knew she would leave me some day and yet I can't stop blaming myself..."

The Doctor eyes shone with something he couldn't have begin to describe even to himself. He smiled fondly. "I'd like that," he said quietly. He helped the Master up. The other Time Lord seemed a little bit unstable, and he slid an arm around his waist. Humans be damned for the looks they were giving them.
In a distant part of his mind, he knew Nine would find them by tracing the jump, but he couldn't care enough to stay on the spot. They walked to the nearest cafe and the Doctor help the Master sit carefully. He hesitated between sitting beside him or on the other side of the table. Finally he sat across his fellow Time Lord, judging that he might need a little space.
"Are you all right?" He asked, voice tight with worry.

Rose pulled him to a stop, turning him so he was facing her.
"You are not to blame. You couldn't protect her from where you were, and I'm sorry you've lost her. But if you even think of giving up now, you're sister will have died in vain. We need to stop Sylar, do it for her."
She moved her free hand to cup his cheek.
"I promise you. We will get this sorted then you'll get to be back home. And I guess I'll have to go back home too."

She nodded. The Doctor was a good man, to not want his Master dead after all he had done. It would be harder not to kill him, harder to hold back, once she began.
She placed her hand on his chest, toying with the wool of his shirt.
"I'm curious." She said, and it was true. "For an Alien you're remarkably..." She smiled, swiming in his eyes again for a while, wondering about the things he had seen. "...English."
