TARDIS - 8 1/2 - R.A. Wonsowski

The page should be white without panel borders; panels should almost be implied, with maybe a blur focus at the edges to make the divisions more obvious...Caption boxes should be in blue boxes with white lettering.

1 - From a distance, we see the 8TH DOCTOR floating cruciform, upside-down and askew, in the nothing; he is battered, bloodied, and most definitely "dead".  There is a Kirby-esque spear through his torso and his sonic screwdriver is nailed into the center of his forehead.

CAPTION:  I have watched you wage your private war forever.


2 - Close-up on the 8TH DOCTOR's face.  His eyes are rolled up and the bloody sonic screwdriver is flickering out.

CAPTION:  I have watched you bleed and die for a Creation that does not acknowledge your presence or thank you.


3 - Same as 2, but pull out a touch, as the TARDIS warps in the background.

CAPTION:  I have found you, and lost you, and found you again.


4 - Pull out a touch, as we see the impaled 8TH DOCTOR waver and shine as the regeneration begins, the TARDIS closer now.

CAPTION:  And I have sheltered your broken body and mind as you are born again.


5 - Close back in on the head and torso, the TARDIS closer now.  The DOCTOR has regenerated, the spear now gone, revealing the clean and unhurt 9TH incarnation.

CAPTION:  Because your war continues.  Because you are needed.


6 - Close-up on the 9TH DOCTOR's face, framed by the open door of the TARDIS, now right behind him. The DOCTOR's eyes are slammed wide open.

CAPTION:  Because I love you.
