A.N. Hey everyone! Here's the second edition to my fanfiction. I wouldn't get too used to me putting out chapters as frequently. You are all lucky that I have some spare time after quizzes and tests and all my other work in school or the first chapter wouldn't even be finished yet. And I had hoped to get this chapter out a lot sooner, but because of a recent ice storm and the lose of my power for over two days and the fact I was at my memere's house didn't help much (did get a few pages done though, just was busy). So here you go!

Disclaimer: I don't own the Doctor, Martha, Gwen, Jack, Ianto, or Mickey. I only own Halyn Ilandere and Charles Bryan Evans.

P.S. I hope in this chapter, it becomes obvious of what's going on. Not to disappoint anyone. I must right a better description later on.

When he arrived, he was greeted by a worried Martha. "Sorry to have called you, but there was nothing we could do when we don't know anything about." At this, Jack came in and said, "Nice to see you again Doctor." Though it lacked his usual flirt with danger self.

While Martha took him to the examination center, she explained what had happened and his reason for being there. "We just went to an 'unusually' high spike in rift activity. And when we got there, we found this girl next to some trash pod that had come through."

"What was in the trash pod, well, obviously trash, but what else?" the Doctor questioned.

"That's just it; we searched it and found nothing. It may not even be a decade from now that the rift took it from. Jack doesn't think that the container has anything to do with it at all, except maybe knocking her out."

"Alright, so what seems to be happening?" the Doctor asked Martha.

"We don't know. That's where you come in. Why don't you look at these and then tell me." She replied, giving him all the results. "These were all redone many times incase any of the equipment was wrong. And they're not."

The Doctor began to look over the results from the tests and it wasn't long before she saw he do somewhat of a double take over them. This was highly unusual. "As you can see, her heart rate is all over the place, her DNA is changing, and something is growing inside of her." And after a few minutes, Jack came in and asked, "Do you know what it is?"

"No."

"Is it alien?"

"It most certainly is."

"What can you do for it?"

"That's what I'm going to find out." Then the Doctor sent off in frenzy of running around and then asked, "Is she awake?"

"Yeah, Gwen is with her right now." Martha said as she led the way to the conference room.

The young girl wasn't too happy sitting there. She had answered just about a hundred questions, none of which really helped out at all. What was she doing out there all by herself? Buying art materials at an art store. Why was she near the container? What container? She didn't remember being near a container. Last thing that she did remember? A blinding light striking the ground. After that? She woke up here, on a white table with someone drilling her for questions. It went on and on until they realized that she really had no clue to what was going on. All she knew was that she wasn't where she was supposed to be.

"Doctor this is Gwen, the second in command. Gwen, meet the Doctor." Martha said as she introduced Gwen to the Doctor.

"It's nice to have finally met you. We have heard so much about you from Jack, and now Martha." Gwen politely replied back and Jack motioned for her to leave. As they both walked out, Jack assured her that they could trust the Doctor; after all, he restarted Torchwood Cardiff in his honor.

He went over to greet the girl, extended his hand, and said, "Hello, I'm the Doctor." But he got no reply back and his hand was left there. Instead, she ask, "Why am I here and what's going on?"

Martha spoke up and said, "You're here because something is wrong inside of you and we're trying to fix it. The Doctor is here to help you." But Halyn still looked unconvinced.

"Why won't you let me leave?"

"Because we don't understand what is happening to you and until then, you have to stay here."

"And you said you're outside the government." Halyn mumbled. Martha just ignored that comment and sat down in one of the chairs. It became clear to the Doctor that he was in charge of what was going on now concerning this girl.

"What's your name?" he simply asked.

"Why don't you check the records." She snapped.

He had a slightly annoyed expression as he pulled out some papers that Ianto had gotten early and said, "Alright, how old are you Halyn?"

"Why are you even bothering to ask? You already have the answers to your questions in that stupid file." She replied.

"Maybe I don't want to read the files. I want to talk to you to see what I can do." After pausing, he went on to say, "It's not me that it's happening to, and you need to give me some insight. Now, it says that you took various outside of school art courses and won various contests. Do you like art?" No answer, just a glare. "You told Gwen that you were shopping for art materials before you were rendered unconscious. Could you tell what they were for?"

A sigh and, "I was planning on painting a picture for my dad, but I ran out of paper and went to buy some more, but I couldn't find any."

"Do you like to paint?"

A shrug, it was a start. "How about drawing, do you like to draw?" A nod, good. "Do you want to be a professional artist when you get older?" Another, bigger nod. "Can you tell me exactly what you were doing at the time of the rift opening?" A confused look. "How about what is the last thing you remember happening before you woke up here."

"Fine, I came out of a store that didn't have anything and I saw a bright, rainbow colored light in the sky. It appeared to strike the ground near me with a blinding light and the next thing I know is I'm waking up on a white examination table."

"Tell me about the light you saw." He said interested. Martha watched curiously, he might be getting somewhere.

"Well, it was bright and blinding, and it surrounded me for a moment, then I woke up here."

"You say it surrounded you?" she nodded. "It might not be the trash pod after all. Instead, I think it was the rift exposure that did it." Martha straightened up at this. He was definitely on to something here. "Why don't you come with us back to the examination room. I know what to look for now."

As they got back, the Doctor said, "Martha, can you get a needle? We're going to draw more blood."

"What are you going to do with that needle?" Halyn said, backing away.

"We just need some more blood. We'll see what has changed since last time and search for anything not found on earth, or more specifically, not this galaxy. And that should tell us what it is and predict what will happen next." He replied calmly. Halyn reluctantly let Martha draw some blood from her arm. Martha gave it for the Doctor to examine. He began by swishing the blood in the vial, looking at it closely and then began to sniff it. As long as he didn't taste it. But Martha noticed the Doctor about to put his finger in it.

"Doctor, don't you even dare," she warned him. She could never understand why he always had to sniff and even lick the most disgusting things. But he set the vial down instead.

"Okay, her DNA doesn't seem to have changed since earlier. That's good, very good." He said, turning to Martha, but as he started rambling. Martha turned to see if Halyn was paying any attention, but instead, she seemed to be in severe pain. "Halyn, are you feeling alright?"

"No I'm not." She replied.

"Uh, Doctor, a little help here." Martha said, cutting him off mid-sentence. "Where does it hurt?"

"My chest area" Halyn replied.

"How does it feel?"

"Like a fire there."

The Doctor responded, "Okay, time to see what's growing inside of you. Sit down over here." Martha helped her over. "Just lie down and try to calm down. That's it, perfect!" He brought down a screen. "You have an x-ray from 2240, fantastic." A couple of bright flashes and then he brought up some pictures on a computer screen. He pointed and said, "You're heart is here and over here next to it appears to be what looks like another organ. And it appears to be pulsing." He searched his pockets and pulled out a stethoscope.

"Just the fact that you carry one around with you is just so wrong." Halyn replied.

"I'm going to hear what's going on inside of you." He replied. She ended up sitting still for him to listen, and for his eyes to widen. "That's a beat, definitely a heart beat."

Martha whispered over to the Doctor, "You don't think she's…"

But the Doctor cut her off, whispering, "Not a chance. Like I said, they were all destroyed. And I would have sensed her by now. Besides, there are many other races with two hearts." Which wasn't far from the truth, but what he didn't say was that most of them weren't humanoid at all. And the Doctor relied louder, "This wasn't just from exposure to the rift. Something has been awakened. She's not human at all."

"You aren't going to dissect me or anything, are you? Cause my dad will kill you." Halyn said worriedly.

"Speaking of her dad, could we get him here? I have a feeling that he knows more about this than we do." The Doctor said. While Ianto was busy on the phone getting a hold of Halyn's father, Martha pulled the Doctor over to the side and asked, "Are you sure—"

But she was cut off by the Doctor, "No, they were all destroyed. They are no more."

But Martha persisted, "What about Jenny, or the Master? They happened." And he just walked away.

Jack waltzed in and said, "So, report, what have we got?"

Martha replied, "She's an alien with a second heart trying to grow."

"You don't think—" but Martha interrupted him and said, "No, he doesn't think so." Jack nodded apologetically; he was there when the Master died and Martha was there when Jenny was created and destroyed. Right after, Ianto came in, announcing that Halyn's father was on his way.

----------------

Jack, Martha, Halyn and the Doctor were already there as Ianto came into the conference room leading a big man in, who went right over to Halyn and gave her a hug. Then Martha went over and explained, "Sorry to have dragged you out here, but we have a bit of a problem with your daughter."

The man looked right at his daughter and said laughing, "We ain't even been in England yet for more that a week and you've already gotten us in trouble. What'cha do?"

Gwen spoke up and said, "Actually, your daughter didn't do anything. We found her near some shops and she is undergoing a 'change' right now in her body systems."

Jack came in and introduced himself, "I'm Captain Jack Harkness," extending his hand.

The father shook it and replied, "Charles Evans. Captain of what?"

"Captain of here. Do you even know where you are?" Jack asked.

"Some where in Cardiff I suppose." He replied.

"Aren't you worried at all?" Jack replied.

"What, you don't remember?"

Now Jack was confused. "Remember what?"

"In 1998, a festival in Colares, Brazil, you don't remember chasing after a toddler and a Chupa-Chupa?"

It took Jack a second, but then he smiled and said, "Ah, I remember, we were chasing your soon to be daughter and she was being chased by a lone punk driving a ship. Think he learned his lesson. You were finishing up a case on exactly that."

"You've got to be kidding me." Halyn said after.

Jack turned to her and said, "I also remember you quite well. You ran around in your underwear and threw up on my shoes. I helped your dad find you. What a sight, toddler running around with the father and a bright UFO following behind."

Halyn remained silent, but her dad spoke up and said, "She never did like that dress very much." At this, the Doctor spoke, "Your daughter is ill. She is growing a second heart inside of her and her DNA is changing. I need to know if something like this has happened before."

Charles frowned and said, "Unfortunately, yes, that has happened before." Halyn sat up straighter. "During the adoption process about ten years ago, she had gotten very sick, but after an operation, she was cured and has been fine ever since."

The Doctor immediately asked, "What operation?"

Charles replied, "The one that saved her life. You see, the second heart was acting up. It would beat, and then it wouldn't. It was messing around with the other one to the point that she could have died. So it was carefully removed and destroyed."

"Are you sure it was destroyed?"

"Positive, had a bonfire and threw it in. It was the first thing to turn to ashes. And don't worry about the surgeon, he didn't remember and died a few years ago of cancer, poor guy. "

"And she was fine ever since?"

"That's correct. Well, until now I suppose."

"Alright, if it's okay with Jack, she'll need to stay here so I can keep an eye on her." Jack agreed so they started to set up the area for a long stay.

A.N. A Chupa-Chupa is what the Brazilians called the UFOs that attacked them in the 1970s until today (for real, though it's never been proven to be UFOs, but for my use, it is). I figured I would include the Colares events. Phew! I thought an alien baby or something was growing inside of her. XD Reviews please! But no flames, they just don't help anybody at all.
