The Eighth Doctor Part 2 (as it was labelled in the book's table of contents) was a short story released in The Doctor: His Lives and Times. The story touched on the Eighth Doctor's non-televised media, his experience with the Last Great Time War, and the connection between him and the Ninth Doctor, occupying much of the same position as Russell T Davies' Doctor Who and the Time War which was originally intended to feature in this portion of the book.
Summary
The Ninth Doctor tries to remember his past by writing a journal. First, he remembers the "happy jumbled days" of his eighth self. He finds that the pages of the journal between the end of the Eighth Doctor's life and the beginning of his own life, a time which he cannot remember, have been glued together and smell like smoke. For now, he does not know what those pages contain.
