As we talk to Jack about the most recent victim Owen found, Martha Jones, one of the Doctor's companions, arrives at Torchwood. Jack has forbidden the adults to take us back to London unless I command it, so that leaves me with more power than the adults. Suzie and Shyla have moved to Alaska.

More aliens are getting in touch about the 456 every day. After the Metalkind calling me yesterday, Kudlak sent me an email (how he got it I've got no idea) and emailed me the species so far that are coming to our aid. 'Some of them are already on their way. They should get to Earth by December 2008'. The Shadow Proclamation are sending Judoon; the Qetesh are increasing taxes and starting Child's Torchwood on their home planet, teaching them about us, Earth and the 456. They too are willing to help. He also contacted the Blathereen from Raxacoricofallapatorious, the same world as the Slitheen, who are already combatting the 456. They are giving us any information we need to fight them.

Martha visits Child's Torchwood and explains how the victims are turning up, and UNIT is looking into it. "The Brigadier is coming as well," she adds. "He wants to investigate Child's Torchwood."
"He can investigate all he likes," I grin.
"I identified a pattern from UNIT's data on sudden deaths," Martha explains as we head to the autopsy room in Torchwood. We all gather round as Owen and Martha examine the body of Meridith Roberts. "Toxic shock, nothing to link the victims. Different ages, sexes, ethnic origins, occupations, but there was a statistically significant concentration in South Wales."
"Come on, Martha, be honest," Jack says. "You just came all this way to see me."
"Still struggling to conquer your shyness, Jack?" Martha teases. Everyone in Child's Torchwood chuckles. The lights flicker.

"Okay, maybe Sparky's not lost her spark," Clyde says.
"What do you mean?" Sky asks.
"You've made the lights flicker; I think that's obvious you can still influence electricity to some degree."
"What do you mean about Sky?" Martha asks, curious as the door opens and the Brigadier walks through, admiring the interior structure.
"Ah, I see you're still here, Emma," he smiles. "Well, Doctor Jones, what about the pattern we found?"
"All of these deaths are being written off either as accidents or suicides. Look. Puncture mark. Hypodermic needle. You'll find his bloodstream was pumped full of ammonium hydroxide."
"Yeah, bloodstream," Owen agrees. "That was the thing I was going to do next."
"Have you checked his medical records?" The Brigadier asks.
"No, I was just about to."
"Well, Doctor Jones, let's give it a go," Tosh explains that there's been a major crash on the NHS system, wiped a shedload of files.

"Including all of the victims flagged up by UNIT?" I ask. "And now, Torchwood's." I invite the Brigadier into Child's Torchwood and introduce him to the team. Jack asks us to find a case Child's Torchwood can work on without Torchwood having to get involved. I take the Brigadier on a tour of Child's Torchwood before we begin researching another body that matches what is happening with Torchwood, and a survivor. I alert Jack and the others, and they inform us of Reset that the survivor who died in the hospital, Marie, told them about. She was given it at the Pharm.

The next morning, Owen walks in. "Guys, there's something I have to tell you. Last night, Martha went into the Pharm."
"Good God, is she all right?" The Brigadier asks.
"She's fine; she's alive. The only problem is, I'm not."
"What are you talking about?" Sky asks.
"You see, Sky, I'm dead. Doctor Copley shot me." He shows us his gunshot wound. Owen explains what happened. "Everyone at Torchwood thinks I'm fine after coming from death and back. There's nothing beyond this life, just darkness."

"Will you lot be at Gwen's wedding?"
"What makes you think we won't be?" I ask. "I'm in command of this branch of Child's Torchwood, and Jack told me that until us children are ready to go back home, we can't allow the adults to leave Cardiff." Owen snorts.

The next morning, we are going to meet Gwen at the hotel for her wedding when she calls us from the hotel. The night before, she was chasing a Nostrovite, it bit her, and now she is pregnant. Gwen is worried about what to do as she told her parents that she was pregnant and can't tell them she lost a baby as they'd be devastated.

Jack tells us to stay out of the wedding as he wants us all safe. "Maybe find a case of your own?" He suggests before Torchwood leaves. I am close to swearing. Why is Jack like this? We wanted to go to the wedding, too. I decide we are going whether they want us there or not. I climb into the car, get everyone in, and we drive off to find the hotel. Ianto is outside, jamming the phone signals, explaining to us that a Nostrovite is inside, killed someone and one of Gwen's bridesmaids yelled at people calling the police. I agree that jamming the phone signals were a good idea. It's not long before Jack calls Ianto back into the hotel, and he tells us to stay with the cars.

Eventually, I leave to talk to Jack, only to find the Nostrovite coming straight for us. We keep Sky to the middle of the group and aim our guns. The Nostrovite sniffs us, curious. I aim my gun at its head as it continues sniffing. The Doctor walks over, pointing her sonic. "Leave them alone," she growls. "I mean it." The Nostrovite, apparently had enough of us, runs off. We all relax.
"Thanks, Doctor," I smile.
"Well, I couldn't miss this. Where's it gone?"
"How should I know?"
"It's trying to find Gwen," Alistair says. "We can go after it. Come on!" We run into the stable and fire out guns, the Doctor pointing her sonic.

"I think Gwen's had enough of you," she says, pushing the Nostrovite down. She aims her sonic again, and the Nostrovite disappeared. She looks up at the happy couple. "All sorted?"
"Yeah," Rhys agrees. "I've used the Singularity Scalpel."
"Impressive," Jessica smiles. "Not even Owen could get it to work."
"Well, second time lucky." The Doctor walks over, placing Gwen's hand in Rhys'.
"The hero always gets the girl," she explains before walking back over to us. We head into the ceremony with Torchwood, staying silent as Gwen and Rhys say their vows and applauding them at the end.

We leave before the party is over since we are kids after all. Torchwood stays behind to clear up. "That was a nice wedding," Alistair smiles.
"Didn't like the Nostrovite, though," Rani says.
"No," I laugh, driving to the car park. "As to why it was sniffing at us and not attacking-"
"Yeah, I don't get that," the Doctor agrees.
"Well, we helped save the world again," Clyde grins as I park.
"Come on, you lot. You need some sleep."

"When are we going back to London?" Haresh asks.
"When I say," I reply.
