I really want Donna to just remain a simple human, with no god-like abilities, but it's obviously not going to happen. It's not like it didn't come out of the blue, though. Lucius set it up as far back as the Pompeii episode, telling her about the time-beetle.
Okay, it's really late and I can't sleep. So I'm just going to fanwank here for a while. Feel free to join me. I don't know what happens in the finalé, but because people can get very tetchy about speculation here, I'm going to put it in a box.
[+] [-] Spoiler So, I was thinking. Donna isn't going to be revealed as another Time Lord, despite the rhythmic thumping in her head. Yana had the Master hidden inside and heard a constant war-drum in his head. When the Master woke up, he brought death, war and general unpleasantness. What if Donna's drum-like noise is the thematic opposite? It sounds like a heartbeat, doesn't it? What if she brings life and a final end to the Time War?
Okay, bear with me..we're going deep into my fanwank now. Dalek Caan is Davros' most loyal companion. He went back into the Time War and crossed supposedly time-locked barriers to find his maker. This is sort of like Rose's quest to find the Doctor across universes. Maybe she's the most loyal companion that will face never-ending death? Davros' supreme Dalek surely serves a more significant purpose than just standing there shouting orders? If not, then he's presumably just the personification of the crucible, which is likely to be a Dalek weapon of some kind. What if Donna has the same role as the red Dalek, and is a time-lord weapon? Like the Doctor said in Doomsday, "both sides had their secrets."
So, this is basically how it all seems to me at the moment:
Davros is the polar opposite of the Doctor.
Davros' children are the Daleks and the Doctor has his children of time- his companions.
Dalek Caan is Davros' most loyal companion and Rose is the Doctor's.
The Supreme Dalek and Donna, then, could be the opposing faction's weapons.
Davros won't be reluctant in the slightest to pull the trigger with his weapon, even sacrificing it in the process. The Doctor would never pull the trigger on another doomsday weapon again (alá Eccleston's "coward, any day," at the end of Parting of the Ways), so will probably try to stop Donna from nobly sacrificing herself to save the universes. The Doctor might be incapacitated from his maybe-regeneration for most of the episode, unable to save Donna.
I'll shut up now, because that's much too convoluted to actually happen. |
