Become a god, at my side.
The offer was too tempting. Help Headmaster Finch (otherwise known as Brother Lursa of the Krillitanes) solve the Skasis Paradigm, and all of space, time, and matter would be at his fingertips. Save Gallifrey. Stop the war. No more loneliness for the Lonely God.
Sarah Jane tried to convince him otherwise, but she didn't understand. Didn't realize the depth of his loss, the boundless emptiness in his head where there used to be ceaseless chatter. She lunged at him when he accepted. The Doctor didn't even think she knew what she intended to do should she reach him. As it happened, though, it didn't matter, since she never made it. It was Rose who got to her first, grabbed her across the waist and slung the older Companion away. Sarah Jane's head bounced off the corner of one of the computer tables with a crack, and she never moved again.
Finch was closer to the solution than he realized, and with the Doctor's assistance honing the program, the children they had been using were able to crack the puzzle within a matter of days. The Doctor used the newfound power almost immediately to bring Sarah Jane back from the dead. She couldn't forgive him, though, for what she perceived as a betrayal of everything they'd fought for. It broke the Doctor's heart, but he let her go.
Rose, on the other hand, remained faithful and loyal to him. He rewrote her DNA at the atomic level in order to make her into the first non-Gallifreyan Time Lord -- complete with regenerations and the ability to bond to a TARDIS.
Inevitably, the Krillitanes betrayed him, tried to seize the power of the Skasis Paradigm for themselves alone. But the Doctor was prepared for them. He'd added the Krillitane oil into the sprinkler system of the school, so when the predictable grab for power came, all he had to do was use the sonic screwdriver to activate the jets, and the oil -- toxic only to the Krillitanes themselves -- sprayed throughout the building and destroyed them.
With the power of Skasis wholly in his grasp, he rebuilt Gallifrey as it was before the war. And, as an encore, he wrote the Daleks completely out of existence. With his influence, he finally accepted the Lord Presidency position that had been offered to him so often. He tapped Rose to be Vice President, and Romana was appointed to be the head of the High Council.
Power corrupts, of course, and the Skasis Paradigm is absolute power. It's affected the Doctor only in subtle ways so far, but those seeds are taking root in his soul and growing outward with each use.

Which means we'll have to come up with a tag for the third Rose too. lol Because Bad Wolf uses the Rose Tyler tag since she is Rose but isn't. And the other one uses Torchwood Rose. *shakes head*
Drama and confusion. hehe What we do best.
