Healing

Like scars in Jack's spirit, the shadows grew. Sometimes they overwhelmed him. Each death - Estelle, John, Jack, and his own, over and over - brought more cold and darkness. As if the void chipped away at his soul without releasing it.

There was only one person who could help him: the right kind of doctor.

"You think I'm some sort of psychic healer? Voodoo magician?" The Doctor's smile was teasing. Eyebrows twisted impishly.

"I know what you are. Please!"

The Doctor's fingers caressed Jack's face and he felt the familiar alien touch in his mind.

Everything was going to be fine.
