Rose winked at Leopold, and gently released his hand. Glancing at Sam, she walked back toward the barricaded door. Since she didn't have the stomach for surgery, the Companion figured she'd be more useful standing guard. She sat herself on the cot, and leaned her back against the door itself.
The blonde stayed uncharacteristically quiet. Her dark eyes drifted from the two men to the pentagram on the floor. She sighed, cradling the shotgun in her arms. It felt a bit like she didn't know Sam at all.
As he worked, Rose's mind wandered- a dangerous thing when their thoughts were being preyed upon. She hoped Amy was safe, and wondered where The Doctor was. She missed her mum. And had she ever gotten her cell back from Dean?
Rose snapped to her senses when she heard something out in the hall. It sounded like... like a baby crying. Slowly, making sure Sam wasn't looking, she pressed her ear to the door. The small, pitiful cry was familiar. It belonged to her newborn brother. The wailing became louder, and Rose closed her eyes. The baby couldn't be here. The dream was just trying to get into her head. She told herself to pull away from the door, but couldn't. Any other time, when Rose would hear that cry, she'd go to Tony. If she did now, though, she'd be separated from Sam and Leopold- what their tormentor surely wanted.
As if hearing her thoughts, the dream around her took a turn. On the other side of the door, she heard the most horrible voice in the universe. "EXTERMINATE." Merciless Dalek. The baby's cry went silent.
"Tony!!" Rose screamed, breaking the calm of the Med Ward. She threw herself from the cot and onto her feet. Her arms flew to pull the barricade away, but instantly, she realized what she was doing. Unable to silence her fear, Rose crouched down, clutching the legs of the bed. Tears trickled down her face. "Sam," she whimpered. It took everything Rose had to keep her hands away from the doorknob.
