Ianto Jones was alive; he had cheated death and escaped from the darkness that had scared Owen so much that he was desperate not to return back to his death after Jack had revived him with another Resurrection glove to the team's protests. The new glove was just as much trouble as the last one Suzie had used. Fortunately, there were no long term effects to Owen, well apart from the fact that he couldn't eat or drink and he didn't need any sleep. He was pretty much a dead man walking. Ianto was a different kind of alive, he wasn't draining the life out of someone like Suzie and he wasn't a walking corpse like Owen. In fact, he was immortal, not that he knew, no, Ianto Jones didn't find out he was immortal until he died in Jack's arms again.
The Doctor was alerted by a signal on the TARDIS control panel, he was enjoying his last few months, weeks or even days in his tenth regeneration. He couldn't hide from the inevitable but he could as sure as hell run from it. He had already said goodbye to so many people, so many companions but he felt that it was his duty to do so one last time to honour his time them. He had just left Bannerman road, seeing his former companion Sarah Jane Smith one last time, when the signal appeared. It had bleeped three times which to someone else meant nothing but to the Doctor was a surprise. Captain Jack Harkness. He tracked down the signal which took him to Thames House, 2009. The Doctor grabbed his long coat and stepped outside the TARDIS into what looked like to him a morgue. There were rows and rows of dead bodies covered in red blankets. What on Earth happened here? He thought to himself. The Doctor looked shocked to see so many, dead. He looked around and saw two visitors sit beside a body; he suspected that Jack Harkness was either the body on the floor or one of the visitors crouched beside the body. He wasn't close enough to hear what the visitors were saying but he could see from the body language that the person they were beside must have been close, a relative or a close friend perhaps. The Doctor crept along the edges of the room so that he was nearer to the pair and he suddenly realized that one of the visitors was Captain Jack Harkness, his RAF great coat confirmed the Doctor's suspicions, and the other was a woman who looked like Gwen Cooper, another member of Torchwood. It suddenly hit him that they were missing another member, the Doctor didn't remember his name but he could see from the tear-streaked faces of Captain Jack Harkness and Gwen Cooper that he was the body lying at number 14 was the missing Torchwood member. He felt a lump appear in his throat as he watched the two remaining members of Torchwood three mourn their friend and colleague.
