The list of the fallen was terribly long. So many names. Yvonne Hartman had fallen, Jack knew he wasn't really going to grieve her, like everyone else seeing the Doctor as a threat she would never score high on Jack Harkness' popularity list. Some other names, a Lisa Hallett and an Adeola Oshodi, neither of the names rang any bells in Jack's head. Some guy called Samuel, no bells either. He read further down, until, reaching T on the list; his eyes fell upon two names; Jackie Tyler and Rose Tyler.

Supporting himself against the wall Jack breathed heavily. No! It couldn't be. Not Rose. How was it even possible? Had they seen her as a threat too? For being a companion to the Doctor. Once before, in Jack's personal past but in the far future of Earth's history, he and the Doctor had thought Rose to have died. That time he'd lost it. And so he did again; seizing the nearest heavy object he threw it forcefully across the room. Then he fell to the floor, crying.
