This is my first attempt at a multi-chapter fanfiction, so a warning in advance, I'm going to be so bad at updating... And yes, I know the chapter is really short. Sorry!
Disclaimer: I own nothing. If I did, then...well...let's just say that the plotline of CoE would have turned out very differently. *shakes fist* You were just jealous of Ianto, Russel T. Davies! How dare you kill him off! Grrr...
Anyway, on with the show!
Prologue
A soft breeze wafted into the room, ruffling the flowers sitting in a jar on the windowsill. The mobile hanging over the small cot tinkled and the small plastic figures swayed in the draft. The eyelids of the sleeping toddler fluttered, and she rolled over in her sleep. Suddenly, there was a small 'pop' noise and a glowing orange-gold light filled the small room. A figure began to materialise in the shining light, tall and muscly. The sparkling light reflected in the eyes of the now wide awake toddler, who was clinging unsteadily to the side of the cot. As the light began to dissipate, the figure gradually became clearer. It was roughly the size of a man, but...not. The creature's eyes were small and black, like deadly marbles, glistening in the dissolving light. It's greyish brown skin was rough and covered in what looked like bruises and cuts and the thing wore a rough hessian-like fabric shift. As the last dregs of the light wisped gently off the foul creature's hands, the room was again thrown into darkness. The child was now aware of something clomping towards her in the blackness. She could hear the heavy, raspy breathing and smell the disgusting smell of the monster's breath as it inched towards her...there was a loud crack and then the sound of running feet down the hallway...
