"Hold on! Just hold on!" Rose screamed at the Doctor.
"No, Rose! Stay there. Don't-" His shoulders tensed, his knuckles pale white as he held onto the lever. Stupid Dalek, stupid Torchwood. Stupid, stupid, stupid. He just thanked his lucky stars that it'd been his lever that the Dalek had bumped into and not Rose's. It was taking all of his strength just to hold onto it, resisting the suction of the Void. He was sure Rose, as strong as she was, would not have been able to hold on as long as he had.
