[This is not my story, I am only posting it as I really love it and want to share it]
Rose watched as hundreds upon thousands of Cybermen and Daleks flew past her. Pure Adrenalin and hope kept her clinging to the magna-clamp. Excitedly, she looked over at the Doctor and smiled. They were both there, together, trying to be sucked into the Void but staying here where they belonged. It was just them now. She had made her choice the day she had met him. She would do anything for him, and anything to say with him; even if it meant losing her family.
Below her there was a small shower of sparks and slowly the lever began to slip back. Instantly the smile dropped from their faces.
"Offline," said the computer. She strained forward trying to pull it back.
"Hold on!" The Doctor shouted to her.
Around her the sucking of the void began to lessen and she knew that she had to get the leaver back in place no matter what. As she reached forward further, she felt herself losing grip, she wasn't going to reach it and hold on at the same time! Just then a huge metal pepper-pot body came flying at her. In fright she clung back on to the clamp.
Somehow, the Dalek, which had its case open, had hooked on to the lever. Now, with something to hold onto it was trying with all its might to escape. The strength of the desperate Dalek moved the lever, and soon it was back in its right spot. But once again the suction of the Void was too strong.
"MER-CYY!" the Dalek cried, and then it was flung from the lever and into the Void.
Rose was too shocked to do anything but hold on. That could have been her… if she had tried for one more second that would have been her! That Dalek had just saved her life.
