The Doctor's current companion, CLARA, is leaving soon (which was announced ages ago), in what's been described as a "shocking fashion". Here's my take on this, based on NO EVIDENCE at all
(so NOT A SPOILER THEN).
1) What if THIS Clara is captured and converted by the Daleks, only to be dumped in their Asylum? That would mean that we've already seen the end of Clara, and she won't come back because she was blown up with the Asylum planet!!! That would be extremely viscous way to exit her!
2) What if Clara is actually a "chameleon arch" of an EARLIER version of Missy? It would explain a few things, especially Missy's comments about "choosing her". The shocking ending might be that she finds her token (might be an old watch), becomes Time Lord again and regenerates into Missy! Wouldn't THAT be a stunning (and permanent) way of writing her out! And the motivation? Missy wanted to "run" with her friend, but knew he'd never do that willingly. Being Clara was a way to do that.By being "Chameleon Arched" she forgets that she's Missy for the duration, but recalls all that when she finally reverts to Time Lord. And, because she's done all that before, she then goes back in time and sets up Clara meeting the Doctor!
I'm guessing that when she does goe, it'll be a lot more mundane than either of the possibilities I've suggested, but sometimes the fun's in speculating.
