Chapter One
"Yeah, I understand. I'll come up with my team and we'll do what we can. Alright…see you tomorrow evening sir."
Jack Harkness hung up his phone and sighed, the team was not going to be happy about this. He picked up the phone again and called Gwen first.

"Rhys I need to talk to you!" Gwen called.
He came out of the bedroom where Gwen was standing by the sofa. She had just hung up with Jack and she was fine with the plan, but she wasn't so sure Rhys would be.
"What is it?" he asked.
"Um…I have to leave for Glasgow tomorrow and I'll be gone for a few days," she said quickly…better to make it quick then let it become a drawn out thing.
Rhys exploded; yeah she knew it wouldn't be a good idea.

"Yeah Jack, I'd love to. I have no plans so it should be fun. I'll come by the Hub earlier than usual to pack up the equipment I need. Is someone going to stay behind and monitor things here?"
Tosh listened as Jack explained what he had already discussed with Ianto.
"Okay then, I'll see you tomorrow."
Tosh hung up her phone and walked into the bedroom. She opened her wardrobe and pulled down a suitcase. She looked at the few dresses she owned and decided to pack two; they were going to Scotland during Hogmanay. Even though they would be solving alien mysteries…she could always hope that they might get to enjoy the festivities.

"Oh Jack why do I have to go? I hate bloody Scotland," Owen complained.
He listened to the Captain.
"But you've already got Gwen and Tosh. Why don't you show up with those two on your arms and show Torchwood Two how it's done."
Owen knew he'd get scolded for that comment, but he was a dead man…he didn't care.
"Alright whatever, I'll be there."
Owen hung up the phone; he went to his room and got out a small duffel bag. He shoved some clothes in and some bandages. That was all he needed for a few days…he put in a tee shirt with a black jacket. Holiday parties and all that….not that he ever attended one.

"Alright, Ianto we'll see you when we get back. If anything happens call us ASAP, night or day," Jack said.
The team was all standing outside the SUV the next day.
"Yes sir, have a safe trip," he said.
Owen went and got in the drivers seat. Tosh and Gwen got into the back seat and Jack got into the passenger seat.
"Happy New Year Ianto," Jack said.
Then the car started and they left the parking garage. Ianto watched till they were gone and then he went back into the Hub. He could always enjoy his James Bond films while they were gone. On the big screen in the Conference room too…this was looking to be a good weekend after all.

"So why exactly are we all leaving Cardiff to go to Glasgow?" Gwen asked from the back seat.
"Torchwood Two called, they've reported some sort of mysterious rift opening. They've had some problems lately and are down to a very small amount of team members, so they asked if we could come and investigate it. It's probably nothing, but it doesn't hurt to check it out," Jack explained.
"Well considering our past experiences with our own rift, it probably does help to investigate it. Hopefully it'll be something that we can just tell them how to build a Rift Monitoring system like we have and get home," Owen said as he drove.
"That's what I'm hoping," Jack replied.
"This is such a long drive, Jack you better help make it," Owen then felt the need to say.
Gwen and Tosh looked at each other and sighed, this was going to be a very long drive.
