Chapter 10- Torchwood.
"So you and The Doctor huh." Jack said to Rose. He and Rose were in his car, driving to Cardiff.
"Yes Jack. The Doctor and me are together. We're in love." Rose said.
"Really. So you've…" Jack said.
"Danced?" Rose said.
"Yeah that's the word I was looking for." Jack said.
"Yeah we've danced." Rose said. "What about you Jack? Who are dancing with these days." She added.
"I'm not dancing with anyone special, I'll dance from time to time, but there's no one in particular." Jack answered.
"Oh. That's a pity." Rose said.
"So how long have you and the doctor been dancing? Jack asked.
"We've only danced once." Rose said before adding, "We were going to dance again, we went to Barcelona but that's when we got the phone call and the Doctor had to go back to earth and I ended up with the Doctors father and then here." She finished.
"Wow. That's a pretty long story." Jack said.
Rose laughed and then thought about it. He was right of course. It was a longwinded explanation, one that she would have associated with the Doctor. She was more like him than she had thought.
Back in 2006, Mickey and the Doctor were walking along the streets of London.
"So what did you mean back in the café about Rose." Mickey asked.
"When I met my soul mate, there was this thing in the TARDIS, a memory thing, that would take her and tell her about something." The Doctor said.
"What? What would she be told?" Mickey said.
"Do you know what Mickey? I can't actually remember now." The Doctor said.
"Oh come on. I'm not falling for that." He said.
"I'm serious." The Doctor answered.
The long journey to Cardiff ended in front of an old building. Rose looked at it. Surely this wasn't Torchwood. The building was falling apart; it was older than she was.
"Come on then Rose, in we go." Jack said.
Rose followed him through an iron door. She looked around and found herself in a totally different world to the one she was expecting. The floors, walls and ceiling were sparking white colour. There was a second door on the other side of the room. It was black and on it was what Rose assumed was the Torchwood logo. There was a desk in the middle of the room, Jack walked up to the desk and the young girl that was sat at the desk and spoke.
"Hey there." He said.
"Jack! Hey, we weren't expecting you here today." The receptionist said.
"Got a little lost soul. She needs to get back to 2006." He said.
"Huh?" The receptionist said.
"This is Rose. My old friend Rose, you remember I told you about her and the Doctor? Well they've been separates and Rose needs to get back to him." Jack said.
"Okay then Jack, well go through, you know where you're going right?" She said.
"Indeed I do." Jack answered. He beckoned to Rose who was still stood by the door. She walked forward and through the second door and into a small corridor.
"Right, It's that way." Jack said.
"Okay then." Rose said.
Jack led Rose through the corridors to a door marked, Time Transport Room. Jack opened the door and let Rose in.
"Now this is gonna seem weird, but have got anything the Doctor may have touched on you?" Jack asked.
"No, why?" Rose asked.
"Well if I can pinpoint the Doctor's signal then we can send you right back." Jack said.
"Oh." Rose said.
"Can I do a body scan, see if there's any trace of him." Jack said.
"Yeah sure." Rose said.
Jack got a portable scanning machine and ran it up and down Rose's body a couple of times.
"How long ago did you and the Doctor 'dance'?" Jack asked.
"Well it's only a few days ago. Why?" She asked.
"Rose, you're pregnant." Jack said.
"I'm what?" she said in shock.
Mickey and the Doctor had found themselves in a children's playground quite near to the Tyler's residence. They had decided to sit on the swings.
"I should be able to remember what she's been told. Why can't I remember?" The Doctor said out loud, although he was actually thinking.
"Don't ask me." Mickey said.
"Wait. Hang on. That's it. She's not going to die." The Doctor said.
"What?" Mickey said.
"She looked into the Time Vortex, she's immortal. When the last remaining time lord and the human who looks into the Time Vortex, meet they will find happiness and love together. The Time Vortex will make the young girl immortal and the two of them will travel the worlds together. The two of them alone will sow the seeds of a new race, time lords and humans together." The Doctor said.
"Again. What?" Mickey said.
"It was a prophecy given to my parents, before my birth." The Doctor said.
"So because Rose looked into the Time Vortex thing that means that she's not going to die." Mickey said.
"Yeah basically." The Doctor said.
"Why didn't you tell her this when it happened?" Mickey asked.
"I was going to, I was just about to when I regenerated. It must have been regeneration amnesia, it happens sometime." The Doctor said.
Rose was still stood in shock. She stood looking at Jack waiting for him to speak.
"Only a few days gone, but these scanners pick up everything." Jack explained.
"That means that the Doctor's DNA is in there." Rose said.
"Yep, I've just grabbed a sample and I'm just looking for a trace, what month did you leave him in?" Jack asked.
"September, it was September." Rose said.
Jack punched in the date and then about a minute later there was a bleeping noise.
"I got him." Jack said.
"Great!" Rose said.
"Wanna get away that quickly?" Jack said.
"Got some questions for him." Rose said.
"You going to tell him about the baby?" He asked.
"Not yet, when I'm ready. Come and see us sometime Jack. The Doctor would be pleased to see you." Rose said.
"Yeah okay. Stand over there." Jack pointed to a a little raised platform. Rose walked over and stood there.
"Thanks Jack." Rose said.
"That's okay." Jack said. He then pressed a few buttons on a console and in a flash Rose was gone.
Rose was in her London again, stood right behind the Doctor and Mickey. She placed her hand on her stomach, smiled and then took her hand away before speaking.
"Why did you not tell me?" she said.
"Rose?" The Doctor questioned. He stood up and turned around to see his Rose stood in front of him.
"Yeah it's me. We need to talk." She said.
"Yeah we do." He answered.
"I'll be off then." Mickey said.
"Thanks Mickey, we'll come round to mum's after we've talked, tell her to stick something in the oven, I'm starving." Rose said.
"Yeah, okay. See you soon. And Doctor thanks for talking." He said.
Mickey got up and walked out of the play area and towards Jackie's flat.
"Right." Rose said as she sat down on the swing nearest to her, "Explain." She added.
