Why this must be read:

There is not enough Martha Fic out there. Which is a shame really as Martha was really kick ass.
It was great to see that she got a happy ending with Mickey in the end of Series 4.

Tassos has written a excellent look into five moments of Martha's missing year. These are all pretty sad so expect to get out your hankies for at least one. They do however highlight all of the things that make Martha Jones one of the top 10 BAMF's out there.

*Warning* There is a description of a miscarriage in one of the scenes.

"Martha held her breath. The Toclafane patrol was bobbing along a scant ten feet away from where she had plastered herself against the wall. The TARDIS key nestled under her shirt was warm from her skin.

When the patrol passed, she continued onward, stopping at each corner to check for patrols before moving on. The hospitals were among the most heavily guarded buildings in cities these days. Desperate people came out of hiding to looking for help and were quickly rounded up and sent to the work camps. When she could, Martha took the time to see what she could scavenge. It never hurt to bring gifts when she went visiting."
