Rosalie found herself once again listening in on Tosh and Gwen's conversation, she was leaning on the water tower, looking at the kit inside when she heard. She didn't mean to do it, she was just worried that they were still talking about her and she had a right to be, because they were.
"Maybe Owen was right" Gwen whispered as tosh shook her head. "Maybe Jack should lock her up in the cells. I mean, she can't control her temper and she's dangerous, she's already proven that. She's..." her voice lowered so Rosalie had to strain to hear it. "A monster"
The sentence hit Rosalie like a wrecking ball; it turned her insides as cold as ice. Rosalie blinked in confusion. She ran once again through the conversation in her head. Why was she angry? She asked herself frantically. It wasn't her fault, it was Owens's no, UNIT's fault. Still... she pondered. How dare they talk about her that way?
She jumped over the railing and splashed though the water towards Gwen. She looked at Gwen's expression as she charged: fear, guilt and anticipation. Rosalie smiled slyly, the same expression the Unit greyhounds had worn, every second of every day.
Rosalie leaded at Gwen just as she had at Owen but Gwen darted out of the way and Rosalie ended up skidding across the floor. Rosalie didn't even blink as both Gwen and Tosh drew their guns in defence and she launched herself at Gwen once more, but this time, she was ready for the dodge. Instead of trying to bowl Gwen over, Rosalie landed in front of her, and with a flick of her hand, knocked the gun out of her hand and wacked her in the face, knocking her down.
Jack and Ianto rushed down to the main hub to answer Tosh's call for help. Jack got there to see Gwen on her back, holding her head in her hands.
"Rosalie..." Tosh stuttered
"Oh great!" replied Jack sarcastically. "Ianto, call Owen, were going to need him here. Tosh Where did she go?"
"Um... Up and out"
"Ok, did you the tracker on her like I asked?"
"Yeah, do you want me to activate it?" Tosh asked, edging to go and find her.
"No, I want you to blow it up" he replied sarcastically. Tosh's eyes widened in shock as he began to talk again. "Of course I want you to activate it! Ianto! Once you're done on the phone, to the SUV. We're going after her." Jack ordered as he ran up to the cog door.
Rosalie was running, no sprinting towards freedom. She was going so, so far away; somewhere she could hide for the rest of history, for all eternity for all she cared. She felt something vibrate on her arm. She ran her hand up her tattered sleave and found a small button like device. She laughed quietly as she plucked it off, had Jack thought that she wouldn't recognise it, if not register it.
"I have to dump this thing" she breathed to no one in particular. Just as she said this, a bus stopped 20m up ahead.
"BINGO!" she cried, running towards it.
