The Third Murder

Sophie's P.O.V

"There you go. I can taste it, Oestrogen. Definitely Oestrogen." Jack began.

"I can't taste it but I can definitely smell it." I mentioned looking at him, Jack then continued.

"You take the pill, flush it away, it enters the water cycle, feminises the fish, goes all the way up into the sky, then falls back down onto me. Contraceptives in the rain, I love this planet. Still, at least I won't get pregnant. Never doing that again." He finished turning to Suzie "How's it going?" Jack Harkness asked.

"Nothing yet. It's got to connect, I've just got to feel it." Suzie replied.

"Hurry up! I'm freezing my arse off!" Owen complained.

"It's not as though she can flip a switch, Owen!" I snapped.

"It's more like it grants me access." Suzie replied.

"Whatever that means" Owen muttered,

"It's like" Suzie started "Oh, oh, oh!"

"Positions." I stated.

"If I get punched again, I'm punching it right back." Owen announced.

"Just concentrate, Suzie?" Jack questioned.

"There was ... What was? I was ... Oh my god, I was going home" John said after Torchwood had resurrected him for a short while.

"Listen to me; we've only got two minutes so it's important that you listen, okay?" Toshiko commanded.

"Who are you?" He asked.

"Trust me, you're dead." Tosh commented.

"How am I dead?" John asked.

"You were stabbed." Owen replied.

"I'm not dead, I can see you." John argued.

"We've brought you back but we haven't got long, I'm sorry but you've got to concentrate. Who did this to you? What did you see?" Tosh asked.

"Why am I dead?" John asked.

"Who attacked you?" Tosh questioned.

"I don't want to be dead." John cried.

"Sixty seconds." Suzie mentioned.

"You've got to think, just focus on me. What was the last thing you saw?" Tosh asked.

"I didn't see ... I don't know." John answered.

"Who killed you? Did you see them?" Tosh pushed.

"I don't know. There was ... something behind me." John replied.

"Police said one stab wound in the back." I informed them.

"So you didn't see anything?" Tosh asked.

"No." John replied. "What happens now?"

"Thirty seconds." Suzie added.

"But he didn't see anyone." Tosh pointed out.

"Don't waste it." Jack growled.

"What else do I say?" Tosh asked.

"What's your name?" I asked turning to face John.

"John. John Tucker." He replied.

"Okay, John. Not long now." Jack confirmed.

"Who are you two?" John asked.

"Captain Jack Harkness." The man replied.

"Sophie Lupin-Black." I added.

"Tell me ... What was it like when you died?" Jack asked.

"What did you see? John, tell us what you saw." I questioned.

"Ten Seconds." Suzie mentioned.

"Nothing. I saw nothing. Oh my god! There's nothing!" John cried. Then the connection was lost as John fell back, it resumed raining.

"Fuck." Sophie cursed under her breath.

"I said it was stupid, telling him he was dead." Owen grumbled.

"Well, you try it." Tosh snapped.

" Trust me, you're dead? Like that's gonna fucking work." Owen retorted.

"Oi! Language in front of children." Jack scolded, pointing to me.

"Oh, calm down Harkness! He can swear if he wants. I've heard it all before." I laughed, you can't live with my dad's and not hear any swearing.

"Told the last corpse he was injured. Wasted the whole two minutes screaming for an ambulance." Jack commented.

"Maybe there's no right way of doing it. What do you think?" I asked looking up at Gwen.
