User blog:Blue Jay Superior/The New Clara Theory: Missy's Choice

WARNING: There are spoilers if you haven't seen Flatline yet, so be warned... Also, the spoilers are in the next line of this blog, so you should probably leave now.

So, Missy chose Clara, but we aren't exactly sure what for.

I have a theory, and it's probably the simplest theory and makes the most sense, but if you would like to share your own theories, you can in the comments, and I'll add them into the blog.

The Chosen Death: Clara Dies In The Afterlife (ReCattailMagnet's Theory)
Here's my personal theory: Clara was chosen to die. I think this one makes the most sense... After all, the last episode before the Christmas special is called "Death in Heaven." Plus, MISSY CONTROLS THE AFTERLIFE. Now, I know what you're thinking: So, Missy just goes around deciding who should die? Isn't that a lot of work? Well, I have two explanations for that. One is that she is often busy. I don't think this one is the more likely one. The second one is... Well, consider the name of the final episode. "Death in Heaven." Heaven is referred to as the Nethersphere in Doctor Who, therefore making the Nethersphere the afterlife. Somebody's going to die in heaven, or the Nethersphere, in this case, Clara, meaning that she will likely die in the afterlife. Wait, Clara would have to die BEFORE that, right? No, because Missy can come down to Earth and, most likely, take people back to the Nethersphere with her. This would be a "special" death, which is the explanation why it would need choosing, but that's not a very good reason, so that's one flaw of this theory.

So, what are your theories?
