So they were stuck. Even vortex manipulator couldn't get through a seal like that. They were stuck unless he could reach the Doctor. Maybe he could. Maybe he could open his mind and try and find him. He tried. And he could feel him there but... it was blocked. The force-seal was causing too much interference, even with their rings. It wouldn't get through, not in time.
Doctor, can you hear me? Please hear me. He tried, but he doubted it would be heard.
Jack shifted his other hand to her cheek and cradled her face as her head started to lilt. "It's okay," he said. "It's fine. I can't die. I'll wake right back up again. I'll stay with you. Come on, talk to me, Beatrice. Talk to me."
He carried on talking as he pulled her over into his arms, his hand tight over the wound and his bloodied fingers lacing with hers.
"You're going to be okay," he told her, but he knew that wasn't true, and there were tears in his eyes. He should have been able to save her. He could feel the gas as he breathed in, and he was losing strength too, his muscles giving way.
"Just you stay with me," he said, voice a little slower. "Stay right here, Bea. The Doctor will be here soon."
