They walked in silence for a moment, the Doctor needing the time to gather his thoughts and Donna not speaking In fear of saying something she regretted.

Eventually, in a quiet tone, Donna muttered "But thing is Doctor," He turned his head to look at her, his expression blank, "Rose is coming back, Isn't that good?"

The Doctor stopped dead in his tracks and stared into space.

Eventually, after thinking it through, he started to smile and turned back to Donna who was still waiting for an answer.

"Yeah, Yeah it is."

"Where are we goin', I'm not being funny 'ere but my feet are killing me. Can't we just take the TARDIS?" Donna Moaned.

"Nope. The TARDIS stays put. Who.. Or whatever dragged us through the this universe could be dangerous. I'm not letting my super-duper Time Machine near the front lines ,thank you."

"Near the front lines? You act like there's gonna be a battle or something."

The Doctor's hearts pounded. There was a battle. And he'd lost someone. And he didn't intend to let anything like that happen again.

"So Doctor," After about half an hour of walking in silence, a rarity for them, "You never said, where are we going?"

"We're going to find Torchwood."

"That's in Cardiff!" "Yeah?" "We're walking to Cardiff?"

"No, don't be stupid Donna. We'll get a few Trains, the odd bus and maybe a Taxi." He said casually, and before she could ask about money, they strolled passed an ATM and he Soniced the machine until a pile of notes flooded out of the machine.

She shook her head in disbelief, "You have the answer to everything don't you?"

"Naaah, where would be the fun in that? But I am pretty good, yeah."

Meanwhile in Cardiff, a young blonde dressed in black trousers and a smart leather jacket sat upon a bench, eating chips.

The wind tousled her golden hair, that was hung loosely around her shoulders.

This ordinary, pink and yellow, human was Rose Tyler. But in fact, she wasn't ordinary at all.

At nineteen she met a man. A lord of time. A man who could change his face.

He took her to the furthest reaches of the galaxy. Together, they saved worlds and stopped whole civilisations from tumbling down into dust. He told her to run, and so she did. They ran together, hand in hand, and they never stopped.

And then came the Army of Ghosts, and the impossible sphere.

And then, they'd been separated. She'd been lost.

But she'd promised him forever, and that's what she wanted to give him, so she kept on fighting.

Joined Torchwood, defending the Earth in the honour of the Doctor.

Rose Tyler, defender of the Earth.

And as Rose noticed the few droplets of rain which were in the air start to get heavier, she crumpled up the chip wrapper and threw it in a nearby bin, and walked back to Torchwood.

A few moments later, the Doctor and Donna had arrived in Cardiff, and were heading in the direction of Cardiff bay.

"Well, this is bloody brilliant." Said Donna, failing In her attempts to shield herself from the rain.

"I get promised amazing planets, great civilisations… and I get this. Cardiff in the pouring rain."

"Bit of rain never hurt anyone." The Doctor mumbled, looking in any and all directions to see if he could spot… anyone he knew.

Donna just rolled her eyes.

And then they heard it. A piercing, female scream.

After turning and looking at each other quickly, the Doctor and Donna set off in a mad run to see what had caused that fearful scream.

Weevil hunting. Definitely not one of Rose's favourite duties. But it had to be done.

So holding a torch in one hand and a can of anti-weevil spray in the other, she made her way down the alleyway.

But she hadn't been quick enough, and the weevil leaped from around the corner and whilst pushing her to the ground, knocked the spray out of her hands too.

Rose screamed as the weevil locked its jaws into her arm.

And then she saw two figures moving in from the distance, another flow of torchlight.

Rose saw the man swipe up the Anti-weevil spray from the concrete floor and held the bottle to the creatures face.

It leapt off Rose and ran into the darkness, leaving only Rose and her saviours in the Alleyway.
