Rose stumbled down the stairs with images still going through her mind; she felt a searing pain down the side of her left leg where it got caught on the fence. She felt dazed as she walked through the doors to Torchwood 13; Jack walked at the same pace as her and looked at her with worry. When they got to the stairs Rose looked up at Gwen who was sitting at her desk with her feet up on the desk, she took a side glance at Rose and realised that Jack was standing next to her with a smile that made her eye's grow wider and her mouth open a bit like she was about to say something, she then smiled and slid her feet off the table. She looked at the computer with new interest, Jack laughed under his breath walked up the stairs and turned to talk to Tosh.

"What's happening?" Jack asked

"I'm detecting major rift activity around where Rose was this morning," Tosh said squinting at the screen.

Rose started to lose interest in there incessant chatting, when she noticed there was a smell hanging in the air.

"Hey, do you smell that?" Rose asked interrupting Jack and Tosh's conversation which Gwen had just joined, they turned to look at her quizzically. Rose raised her eyebrows and cocked her head on the side; Jack shook his head at her. Rose sighed and started to walk towards the medical lab, she noticed that the smell was getting stronger. She reached the lab and the smell was so bad now that she had to cover her nose with both of her hands.

"WHAT IS THAT?" she yelled though it was slightly muffled, but Owen still heard it, on the desk in front of him there was a body, it had blackened skin and weird white stuff coming out of its skin. Owen looked up at her slightly green and he raised his hands

"I have no bloody idea," he said through his face mask, but yet he still dug around inside of the body and pulled something out

"There it is," Owen cried, it sounded like in happiness; He delicately put the thing on a tray that Ianto was holding, who looked like he was going to be sick. Rose walked down the stairs and took the tray off Ianto. He looked relieved as he quickly walked up the stairs. Rose looked at all of the scalpels and other instruments on the rolling tray. Rose could see the body more clearly now, and it definitely wasn't human.

"What were you looking for?" Rose asked

"I don't know, something that will tell me what this thing is," Owen said in a huff.

"So you don't know what it is…" Rose said trailing of because of the look Owen was giving her. He shook his head and he got back to work.

"Jesus, what's that smell?" Rose and Owens heads snapped up, Jack was standing at the top of the stairs.

"Why do I have to keep telling everyone, I. Don't. Know!" Owen said frustrated at the repeated questions.

Rose, feeling repulsed by the sight of the creature in front of her, looked down long enough to take in the creatures face, she'd seen the creature recently except it had become more blackened and shrivelled, it was a Weevil and she was pretty sure it was the same Weevil as before, because it had the same facial marks as the one did this morning.

Rose laughed at Owen for over- thinking things… again.

"Owen… have you ever thought to look at its face?" Rose asked, Owen looked at her then at the Weevil, realisation crept onto Owens face which soon turned to one of frustration he slammed his equipment down on the table

"SHIT!" He yelled, his voice ringing through the room, usually at this moment people would laugh, but instead that looked startled as Owen stormed up the stairs and disappeared through the doors. Everyone stayed frozen until Owen came back with a bottle of beer and sat down at his desk. Everyone started to move again, Rose put the plate down on the desk across from the Weevil and walked up the stairs. She noticed that Gwen hadn't moved since she had gotten back to her desk. Jack had walked over to Owen.

"What is it?" Jack asked

"It's a Weevil… But it's the Weevil that you saw this morning." Owen said avoiding his eye contact.

"Hang on, when did you say you found the body?" Rose asked walking over; Owen looked up at her with new dislike.

"15 minutes after the Weevil you saw died." Owen said looking intensely at his computer screen, Rose looked at Jack and mouthed 15 minutes, Jack made a face that Rose thought meant "I know".

"Could this have anything to do that symbol I found on the Weevil?" Rose asked pulling the piece of material out of her pocket and handing it to Owen. He snatched it and studied it intensely,

"This doesn't make any sense," Owen said, handing it back to her, Rose sighed and pocketed it.

"Hey guys I think you should look at this!" Tosh yelled from the other side of the room everyone walked over to her.

"There is major rift activity, about 2 miles east of here," Tosh said

"I didn't know the rift stretched out that far," Gwen said

"Neither did I," Tosh said

"Well we'll have to look at what's going on… well come on then!" Jack said grabbing his coat and walked out the door.
