Followed on from "History's Army"
"right ood look sharp we are opening!" a woman with Mad blonde hair and bright red skin shouted "come on the first customers will be arriving soon!"
The Odd set out the chairs and scrubbed the tables they were working fast all around the bar but there Mistress of the house wasn't happy "Odd we open in 10 earth minutes so get a move on". One of the ood turned round and looked at her. Its Purple eyes starred into hers "Mistress we are working as hard as possible".
The woman sighed and rolled her eyes "don't you dare talk back at me I said we open in ten minutes you'll do well to remember I am boss around here".
"Apologies Madame"
"shut up and get to work" She said walking over and hitting the ood.
The Ood then grabbed her by the neck "You shouldn't have did that Mistress, you shouldn't make me angry" its eye glowed red as its grip tightened on her neck.
The woman grabbed hold of its tentacles stretching them "get off me, Ood help me".
A shot was fired from across the room and the Ood fell down dead, the Mistress looked into the direction it had been fired to see a short potato like alien in armour standing holding a gun. "well hello there I have never had a Sontaran in my bar before not trying to take over are you?" she asked smiling.
"A Sontaran never reveals his battle plans to half forms" The Sontaran told her.
"oh I'm sorry, didn't mean to make you angry, thanks for firing at the Ood for me, that's the second time this week ones went rogue terrible waste of a slave"
"your appreciation has been noted" The Sontaran said sitting at the Bar.
The mistress walked behind the bar "what can I get you?"
" I will no consume your primitive liquids I am merely here to refuel my ship" he explained.
All sorts of Aliens all different colours and shapes filled the bar and with in minutes the place was crowded.
A man in a world war two Jacket sat beside the Sontaran "hey Penelope get me the usual would you and fill the glass right up this time I don't want it half full!"
The Mistress grinned "nice to have torchwood ordering me about"
"it is when it has the face of Captain Jack Harkness"
"that's debateable" she grinned.
Jack smiled "in what parallel universe"
"in this universe" she said giving Jack his drink.
"your pointless communication will stop" the Sontaran butted in.
Jacked looked him in the eyes "Mr Potato head thinks he's a tough guy doesn't he?"
"Jack I swear if you start another fight in my bar.."
The Sontaran smiled "I would take joy in defeating a primitive like you in one of your planets traditional bar fights".
Jack stood up "challenge accepted, sorry Penelope I'll make up for it later" he said with a wink "alright humpty dumpty lets see if any of the kings men can put you back together".
"it is you who will need to be reassembled" The Sontaran said pointing his gun.
Captain Jack got his pistol out pointing it at the Sontaran's head " I'm captain Jack who are you"
"A captain? What sort of rank is that for a half form with no ship, I am Rolax the Demolisher, your name means nothing to you now, goodbye captain I hope you put up a good fight"
Jack smiled " I like a good rough and tumble".
Jack ran Across the crowded Room and took his first shot at Rolax but he missed and hit a bottle it fell from its Shelf in a million pieces the content covering the floor and counter "I'm sorry I'll pay for that" he said catching Penelope's stern look.
While Jack was distracted by the mess, Rolax holding his gun with both hand fired it across the room and hit Jack in the chest. Jack stumbled through the crowds knocking aliens over and falling onto a table which an ood was cleaning. Penelope ran over "Jack, oh for goodness sake I knew you would get yourself killed one of these days"
Rolax laughed " what a pathetic attempt to eradicate me, that was hardly even fun".
Jack Gasped back awake got off the table, lifted his gun from the floor and with a bang shot Rolax in the forehead "roast potatoes on the menu ladies and Gentlemen"
Penelope punched Jack so he fell back on the table "get out of my pub!".
Jack walked out of the pub into the misty streets, from outside the pub just blended in with the houses around it. Jack hit something with his foot, it was the dead body of an Ood. He kneeled down and scanned it with his Vortex Manipulator "my readings are saying your still alive, but your quite obviously dead, come on then to base with you I need to see what's going on with your body hope you don't mind".
He lifted the ood onto his shoulder and continued to walk down the street watching as people gave the strange looking thing on his back funny looks "its for fancy dress don't worry, nothing to see here". He was nearly at the TORCHWOOD base when he heard a faint sound which grew louder. The sound of an engine groaning the noise, a filmier sound calling him home he had no doubt it was the TARDIS. He ran as quickly as he could with a dead ood on his back. He followed the sound until it died out a moved through street after street trying to catch sight of a blue box until there it was standing in an Ally way. He grinned running towards it and knocking on the door.
If you had just landed in a time-travelling police box in Victorian Cardiff and someone started knocking on your door like they had been expecting you then you would feel a bit shocked wouldn't you?. That's exactly how the Doctor, Danny and Daisy were feeling when the TARDIS stopped.
"ooh Doctor that doesn't sound too good at all, maybe we should leave again right?"
The Doctor tried to get the monitor to work "The Monitors not working something's wrong" he looked and seen a bullet hole at the side of the screen "Rab a man with a gun, he has shot the monitor that was probably because of the Angels, nice guy but I am a little bit annoyed now".
"Doctor we could just open the door to see who's there and I'm sorry but who are you?" Danny asked looking at Daisy who had a pony tale and bright blonde hair.
The Doctor looked at him concerned "what to you mean who's that it's Daisy".
"Doctor!" Jack shouted from outside.
The Doctor turned around and looked at the door "Jack what are you doing here, what are you doing knocking on my door"
"You Abandoned me" he said sounding a bit saddened by the thought of it.
"Jack I'm not supposed to met you yet, this version of me is the wrong version please just go"
Jack let go of the TARDIS "Doctor I will cling to the outside of the TARDIS and follow you to where ever you land next"
"oh that's good, practice for later" He said going to press a lever.
"Doctor…" he begged "please don't abandon me again"
The Doctor opened the doors and Jack walked in looking up at the console room in amazement "you've redecorated, this is amazing"
"the next time you see me it will be the same old Console room not this one, the one you travelled in with me when I was big ears in the leather Jacket" the Doctor Explained.
Danny walked up to Jack "Ok now I am really confused who is this?"
"Captain Jack Harkness and who are you?" he said smiling.
"Danny"
"Nice to met you Danny" he said shaking his hand.
Danny smiled "nice to met you too".
The Doctor got frustrated "do you flirt with everyone?"
Jack frowned slightly "I was only saying hello".
Daisy sat on the chair in the console room not wanting to go near the new person in the TARDIS as she didn't like strangers. The Doctor walked up to her after they had talked for a while "Daisy are you ok, you seem a bit shy".
Daisy avoided contact with his eyes " I'm fine honestly, I just, I'm still getting used to this"
The Doctor smiled "Culture shock I think, Happens to the best people trust me, don't worry you'll get used to it then you'll love it".
Jack opened the door "two minutes Doctor I have a little mystery for you"
The Doctor looked at Jack "good I love a mystery bring it in Jack, Bring the Mystery in" he ran over beside Danny "I wonder what it is, it could be anything knowing Jack, really hope it's nothing dangerous".
Jack pulled in the sad corpse of the Ood "I found it in the street Doctor, my scanner said it's dead and Alive, I thought you might shine a little light on it"
"what is that thing?" Danny asked kneeling down to have a look.
Jack kneeled down beside him "it's a Ood used for slaves in the not to distant future, they have a telepathic field with each other which makes them vulnerable to possession and ultimately led to them all being enslaved.
The Doctor kneeled down and scanned it "it's giving me two readings, oh hang on the brains alive but the body is dead, interesting never seen anything like it have you?"
"never"
"wait Jack you knew about the Ood their secret?"
Jack stood up "I'm sorry back then I didn't care remember I was a conman".
Danny looked at Jack "you talk about back then like it was in the past when really it's the future".
The Doctor also stood up looking at Jack "That's the danger of you meting me now Jack any Questions you have, you can't tell me you have to ask the me with spiky up hair and the long coat"
Jack Nodded "got it".
He forced Danny to stand up "Me and Jack met in the future, we were never supposed to met now, or maybe we were I don't know, but basically our timeline is all messed up now, its like if you eat a cake before you made it, no sorry bad analogy ignore that".
"so its like back to the future where Marty meets Doc early"
The Doctor grinned "exactly, always use back to the future when explaining Paradoxes well done genius" he said pecking him on the lips and moving back to the console "lets create a room, haven't done that in a while".
Jack and Danny looked at each other both struck by the sudden act " I've kissed him too was this version good?"
Danny paused "em I don't think I'll comment on that".
Jack grinned as he joined the Doctor again "what do you mean create a room"
"the TARDIS has an infinite amount of rooms, if I can make a sort of operation room we can find out what is in that Ood's head" The Doctor told them.
Jack smiled "you know how to use that stuff?".
The Doctor paused "not really no" he said stopping everything he was doing to try and think. Daisy stood up and smiled faintly "I can, I'm a surgeon remember".
"no your not!"
"yes I am remember I stayed at your house for free weeks" she pleaded "surely you remember".
Danny shook his head "no sorry that was Caitlin not you, stop trying to mess with my head".
The Doctor stepped back from the console "what do you mean Danny?"
"she isn't real trust me Doctor, you may be blind to it but she has done something to Caitlin".
The Doctor got even more confused "Sorry Danny but who's Caitlin?"
"Don't you start joking, that isn't funny"
He looked at Danny trying to figure out if he was telling the truth "Danny who's Caitlin and why is Daisy not real?"
" Doctor he's just a bit confused its fine, he'll be fine" Daisy said getting up and putting an arm round Danny "everything is alright Danny.
He looked disgusted "get off me!".
"Danny step outside and don't come back till you have cooled down" the Doctor said reasonably calm.
Danny walked out into the cold night and Jack followed him and together they went for a stroll.
"Jack do you believe me?" he asked hoping that someone would.
Jack looked a head "you didn't seem like you were lying but I don't know I've just met you and I think the Doctor's just met you two, he has been acting a little weird though, even for a new regeneration"
"so you think something's up"
Jack nodded "I think Daisy is not all she claims she is and according to the readings on this thing, she' an Alien" he said pointing at his risk device " when we go back into the TARDIS you act as if you suddenly believe her story, have you got that, pretend I know it's not easy but in order to find out what she is we need to try and play along for a while"
"the Questions you would want to ask the Doctor what were they?" Danny asked Curious.
Jack smiled at him "maybe those questions will come to light later on this evening" he said flirtatiously.
Danny smiled "ok lets get back to the TARDIS.
When they got back into the TARDIS the Doctor and Daisy ran straight to them and looked back at the console "the Ood it's alive and walking" The Doctor said as a purple eyed Ood headed for them " we need to get out but we need to make sure it follows.
Jack got his pistol out "I have a better Idea, my ways quicker"
"Alright shot the Ood it's probably sort of dead anyway" the Doctor said Rolling his eyes and running out with Daisy and Danny. The shot from Jacks pistol rang out and the Ood was down on the floor again. Suddenly purple stuff started to seep out of its eyes into the air like a warm of red bees or a red sand storm " Doctor something's coming out of this thing I think it's a parasite"
"Jack get out of there" the Doctor warned.
Jack got out of the TARDIS and ducked "hide your eyes!. Danny looked at the red cloud coming towards him fascinated by it. He then tried to cover his eyes but it was too late it got in and he fell to the floor. The Doctor rushed over and scanned him with his sonic "he's still alive, the Parasite is taking over his brain".
"Doctor what do we do?" Jack asked Anxiously
The Doctor looked at Danny as his eyes turned purple "I don't know Jack I'm sorry".
