Despite her sadness, the Doctor took care to find ways to cheer her up once more, and before long they were traveling once more, almost as if they'd never slowed down at all. On a failed trip to see Elvis during his prime, she and the Doctor discovered some sort of creature that stole people's faces (and perhaps their souls), and planned on devouring all of London during the Queen's coronation. While investigating, Rose herself became a victim of the creature, and had to be rescued by the Doctor along with the others.
Later, on a planet far into the future and very far away from Earth, they found themselves trapped at the edge of a black hole and without a TARDIS. The situation forced Rose to consider the concept that she and the Doctor might have to settle down somewhere after all, and while the concept that they might share a house and mortgage was too awkward to discuss, she found it wasn't so bad to be trapped impossibly far from home as long as she was trapped with the Doctor.
Unfortunately, it wasn't long before they were separated, the Doctor far down a mineshaft, and Rose in a small base populated by suddenly hostile creature, and both threatened by an ominous creature that claimed to be the Devil itself. The Beast, as it also called itself, promised her that she would soon die in battle, but it was the Doctor that she thought died first, after falling into a great big hole in the deep mine. When she heard the news of his fall, she decided to stay on the planet even when the rest of the base was evacuating, because she couldn't bear the thought of leaving the Doctor all alone, even if he were dead. Fortunately for her, the base commander didn't give her a choice, and literally dragged her onto the shuttle.
While she was still extremely reluctant to leave, even after she was past the point of no return, her mind quickly enough turned away from the Doctor to the ease of their escape. She suspected that there was an ulterior motive to why they were being allowed to leave, but could come up with nothing before their method of escape closed to them, and Toby, the passenger on the base possessed by the Beast, revealed that he was still holding the Beast's consciousness.
Rose recovered from her shock quickly enough to unbuckle Toby and shoot out the windshield of the shuttle, sending him into the black hole, before the Doctor returned in the TARDIS and saved them all once more.
When she told the Doctor what the Beast prophesied, he brushed it aside as a lie, and their sobering adventure quickly melted away into smiles and laughter again, as always.
Despite her varied travels, she remained in contact with her mother, Jackie, sending back her laundry on a regular basis to let her mother clean it, and when a young man tried to get to she and the Doctor through Jackie, she returned to Earth to give him a piece of her mind. Yet, when she learned the truth of his situation, that he'd lost his mother as a child and searched for answers about the Doctor he'd seen over her body, she changed her stance from anger to sympathy, and worked on his side to get the Doctor to help him.
During a trip to the London Olympics in 2012, the Doctor was briefly turned into a living drawing by a young girl and an alien, and Rose herself had to save the day, finding a way to free the Doctor and send the alien back to its family, and save the young girl from an animated version of her angry father. Rose was briefly distraught when the Doctor appeared not to return, but soon caught him on television, carrying the torch. Empowered by their many successful escapes and scrapes with death, Rose was certain they'd seen the worst, and could take anything thrown at them.
