Rose took the opportunity of the commotion at the doors to dash back outside. She headed straight for the TARDIS. As she stepped out the main door at the front of the palace, she skidded to a halt. Nikolai was standing at the bottom of the stairs in front of her, head bowed, but he was not alone. He was surrounded by his family. His father was shouting at him. His mother was crying. His five sisters looked forlorn. Nikolai glanced up and caught Rose’s eye. She slowly raised one hand.

A look of determination crossed his face, and he strode over to her. Behind them, the crowd of ball guests had begun charging out of the palace and down the front steps.

‘I can’t take you with me,’ Rose said, feeling her resolve wobble and thinking, But he’s just one man. It wouldn’t really matter, would it? The Doctor would be able to fix it, wouldn’t he?

But Nikolai was nodding his head. ‘I understand. I realise I cannot go with you,’ he said. ‘You have shown me what I have to do. You have shown me what I need to fight for: a happier world. The world you come from.’

‘Oh, I wouldn’t say that my world is ha–’ Rose began, but Nikolai had bent down quickly and taken her hand. He kissed it gently and firmly, and his lips lingered. Then he straightened up and, with one last look into her eyes, he marched away from her, out alone into the cold, cold night, the crowd parting to let him through.
