Challenge #055: Waiting Kills (Doctor Who)
Title: Waiting Kills
Fandom: Doctor Who
Pairing: Ashildr/Clara
Rating: General Audiences
Prompt: Challenge #055: dialogue/no dialogue
Word Count: 200
Clara rescued Ashildr from a sea monster who had entwined one of its arms around Ashildr's leg in an attempt to drown her. By the time Ashildr was out of the water, she was unconscious. Clara took Ashildr to the TARDIS' medical bay. There was nothing Clara could do but wait until Ashildr's body repaired itself, even if she squeezed Ashildr's right hand.
Sometimes Ashildr's resurrections took minutes. Sometimes they took hours. Clara was happy the Mire medical kit still worked in Ashildr's body, helping her survive anything and everything she encountered in their travels. But Clara considered waiting for Ashildr to recover from her injuries and accidents a curse. She never knew how long the resurrections took. And sometimes Clara wouldn't know if the Mire medical kit would stop working on Ashildr or not. Clara hated the wait to see if Ashildr would survive.
Moments later, Ashildr started coughing up water. When the water was out of Ashildr's lungs, she took a big breath. The Mire medical kit was still working inside of Ashildr.
Clara squeezed Ashildr's hand, happy she was still breathing. But Clara still had to wait until Ashildr was healthier to go on their travels again.
