New Beginnings? (Henry Jekyll, Rose Tyler and others)
I took her hand, carefully. As she began to lead me God knows where I wondered if this was a good idea. Hyde was dangerous, that much I did know but truth be told I had, to some extent gotten used to him. Yes he had killed, yes he had maimed and he had raped but he was one thing that I was not; free.
