"This is where I die. This is a fixed point. This must happen. This always happens. Don't worry. You might not even remember this," He promises before gesturing to the picnic "Look there,"
"I know...It's me, and you're going to say that it proves that I can't stop this..." tears keep streaming down Willow's face "But that doesn't make it better..."
"I know, but look," and this time, Willow does, she sees River holding Poppy.
"That's you, in your sister's arms, because she knows what's about to happen is inevitable. And that you are forgiven. Always and completely forgiven..."
"Please, Doctor, please, please just run!" Willow shouts "Don't let me kill you, don't let River be imprisoned for a crime she didn't even commit!"
"I can't,"
"Time can be rewritten -"
"Don't you dare," The Doctor snaps "Goodbye, Willow," He winks ever so slightly, but Willow doesn't see it as her eyes are too blurry from the tears. The astronaut suit zaps him multiple times but he doesn't die this time, he opens his eyes and sees a smiling Willow.
"Hello, Sweetie," River's voice rings through the suit and The Doctor can hear it.
"What have you done?" The Doctor asks, incredibly confused
"Well, I think River just drained my weapon systems,"
"But this is fixed. This is a fixed point in time!" The Doctor objects
"Fixed points can be rewritten," Willow says in a sing-song voice
"No, they can't. Of course, they can't. Who told you two that!" Willow goes to respond but everything starts to dissolve into white.
"Well? What happened?" Churchill asks
"Nothing,"
"Nothing?"
"Nothing happened. And then it kept happening. Or, if you'd prefer, everything happened at once, and it won't ever stop," Churchill slowly walks up behind The Doctor "Time is dying. It's going to be five oh two in the afternoon for all eternity. A needle stuck on a record,"
"A record? Good Lord, man, have you never heard of downloads?"
"Said Winston Churchill..." The Doctor mutters, slightly amused at his own joke.
"Gunsmoke," Churchill starts sniffing "That's Gunsmoke," he lifts his gun "Oh, I appear to have fired this," The Doctor lifts up a spear he happened to be holding.
"We seem to be defending ourselves,"
"I don't understand,"
"The creatures that lead the Silence. Remarkable beings. They're memory-proof," The Doctor explains
"But what does that mean?"
"You can't remember them. The moment you look away, you forget they were ever there," The two slowly walk backwards and The Doctor checks his arm where four tally marks are "Don't panic. In small numbers, they're not too difficult," he goes to throw his spear, but catches sight of the other arm which is covered in other marks.
Looking up, they see that the Silence are hanging from the ceiling in a big cluster, however before they can react, a grenade rolls in. The Doctor quickly knocks Churchill down and as the grenade explodes, soldiers enter.
"Go! Go! Go! Keep the Silence in sight at all times, keep your eye drives active!" One shouts
"Who the devil are you? Identify yourselves!" Churchill demands and a female in a black suit walks forward.
"Pond. Amelia Pond," Churchill goes to shoot and The Doctor stops him.
"No! She's on our side. It's okay," Amy gets closer and the doctor can see that she's wearing an eyepatch and Alex is behind her, also wearing one.
"No. No, Amy. Amy, Alex why are you wearing that?" Amy takes out a gun and shoots him square in the forehead.

"Attention all personnel. Please check all assigned containment units," Rory's voice rings out as Amy leads The Doctor into the main control room. A lady in a white coat is watching a screen and a blonde and brunette are stood by her.
"You were right. Just his presence in the building caused the loop to extend by nearly four chromones," The woman in the white holds out a folder to the brunette and the clock now reads 05:02:57, 58, 59.
"Hi, honey. I'm home," The Doctor says smugly and the brunette turns, holding the folder to her side dramatically
"And what sort of time do you call this?" Willow moves out the way and chucks the file to River as Madame Kovarian is revealed to The Doctor, currently tied to a chair.
"The death of time. The end of time. The end of us all. Oh, why couldn't you just die?"
"Did my best, dear. I showed up. You just can't get the psychopaths these days," He looks over to the twins "Love what you've done with the pyramids. How did you score all this?"
"Hallucinogenic lipstick. Works wonders on President Kennedy. And Cleopatra was a real pushover," River explains
"I always thought so,"
"She mentioned you," Willow starts
"What did she say?" The Doctor matches her flirty tone
"'Put those guns down',"
"Did you?"
"Eventually," Willow winks
"Oh, they're flirting. Do I have to watch this?" Kovarian moans
"It was such a basic mistake, wasn't it, Madame Kovarian," River walks over to her and Willow leans on her chair "Take two twins and raise them into perfect psychopaths, introduce them to the Doctor. I mean, have you met my sister, who else was she going to fall in love with?"
"It's not funny, River. Reality is fatally compromised. Tell me you understand that,"
"Dinner?" Willow tries to change the subject
"I don't have the time. Nobody has the time, because as long I'm alive, time is dying. Because of you two,"
"Because I refused to kill the man I love?" Willow asks, clearly annoyed
"Oh, you love me, do you? Oh, that's sweet of you. Isn't that sweet. Come here, you," he makes a grab for Willow and she goes to kick him off, but doesn't want to hurt him.
"Get him!" Amy shouts and soldiers grab the doctor before he can touch her
"I'm not a fool, dear. I know what happens if we touch," The Doctor shakes his head before grabbing her again.
"Get off me!" Willow tries to punch him, but he grabs her other arm "Get him off me! Doctor, no. Let go! Please Doctor, let go!"
"It's moving. Time's moving!" The woman in the white coat shouts out and the clock now reads '05:03 and the seconds keep going up, River grabs Willow and tries to pull her away
"Get him off me! Doctor! Stop!"
"I'm sorry, Willow. It's the only way," They flash back to the lakeside, but then, a blonde woman in black converse steps forward and punches The Doctor square in the jaw. The soldiers finally has a chance to pull The Doctor off Willow and he grabs his face.
"Ow! Who was that?!" he looks up at the woman who punched him and she's grabbing her hand
"God! why's your jaw so hard!?"
"Why do you punch so hard?!"
"Can we just, calm it down," Alex steps forward "Poppy, I think Rory wanted to talk to you about the security in room 106,"
"Cool," Poppy nods at River and Willow before walking away muttering about 'bloody time lords'.
"How...?" The Doctor can't finish his sentence as he points to Poppy
"All of time is happening at once...That's the me that was at the picnic and watched you die; this is the me that kills you at that same picnic,"
"Well, you didn't actually kill me,"
"Cuff him," River says casually, getting annoyed.
"Oh, why do you always have handcuffs? It's the only way, We're the opposite poles of the disruption. If we touch, we short out the differential. Time can begin again!"
"And I'll be by a lakeside killing you!" Willow objects
"And time won't fall apart. The clocks will tick. Reality will continue. There isn't another way,"
"I never said there was," Willow mutters, but The Doctor hears it.
"There are so many theories about us three, you know?" River starts
"Idle gossip,"
"Archaeology,"
"Same thing," Both Willow and The Doctor reply, Willow giving her sister a smirk
"Is Willow the woman who marries you, am I the woman who murders you? Or is Willow both?"
"I don't want to marry her,"
"She doesn't want to murder you,"
Amy looks up as she feels a drop on her head and she stares at the water starting to drop off the ceiling.
"This is no fun at all," The Doctor mutters, now standing very close to Willow
"It isn't, is it?"
"Doctor, what's that?" Amy asks, realising the water is still coming
"The pyramid above us... How many Silence do you have trapped inside it?"
"None," Madame Kovarian answers simply "They're not trapped. They never have been. They've been waiting for this, Doctor. For you,"
"They're out! All of them!" Rory rushes in and Alex helps him bar the doors as the soldiers get slaughtered outside.
"No one gets in here!" Rory tells the two soldiers in the room "ma'am, my men out there should be able to lock this down. We have them outnumbered," Rory tells Amy
"And you're wearing eye drives based on mine, I think. Oops..." Madame Kovarian teases
"What do you mean?" The Doctor steps forward as electricity surges through the main scientist's eye drive and she screams out in pain.
"Help her! Help her!" Willow shouts out and Amy rushes over as the soldiers in the room become affected as well.
"She's dead..." Amy tells everyone and The Doctor's eye drive activates.
"Eye drives off now. Remove them!" River takes off her own immediately as Willow instantly takes Alex's off, not caring about her own as it activates and Amy takes The Doctor's off. Willow's and Amy's activate and River rushes to her sister, taking it off as Alex goes to Amy.
"The Silence would never allow an advantage without taking one themselves. The effects will vary from person to person. Either death or debilitating agony. But they will take you all, one by one," Madame Madame Kovarian's eye drive starts to zap "What are you doing? No, it's me. Don't be stupid. You need me. Stop it. Stop that!"
"We could stop this right now, you and I," The Doctor looks to Willow as Madame Kovarian shouts at The Silence.
"Get it off me!"
"Amy, tell her,"
"We've been working on something," Alex starts
"Just let us show you,"
"There's no point. There's nothing you can do. My time is up,"
"We're doing this for you!" Amy insists
"Then people are dying for me. I won't thank you for that, Amelia Pond,"
"Pleas just let us show you!" Willow begs.
"Please..." The Doctor nods "Captain Williams, how long do we have?"
"Er, a couple of minutes,"
"That's enough," Willow tells the group
"We're going to the Receptor Room right at the top of the pyramid. I hope you're ready for a climb," River explains.
With that, four of them are rushing up and the stairs, Amy and Rory still in the main office.
