Three Hours Earlier

Road Leaving Cardiff

Alexandra POV

I fidgeted a lot, I was nervous, the weight of the chain around my neck was a constant reminder of what we were about to do, breaking into a terrorist organization to rescue the most important man in the universe. Jack was in the front driving the strange armored car that Torchwood had for their covert missions throughout Wales when it came to alien activity. Now we were driving through the countryside blowing up a large cloud of smoke behind us, Ianto sat besides me looking over at me as I fidgeted around in my seat. Ianto didn't seem comfortable being near me yet, he wouldn't really look at me, I watched the rolling hills flash past us, then a soft sigh and he put a gentle hand on my knee. I jerked a little, not necessarily scared just mainly startled by him suddenly reaching towards me.

" Miss Tar... I mean Alexandra are you alright?" Ianto asked me in a soft voice.

" Yes... I guess." I gave a distant answer looking outside still.

" You're worried about killing someone aren't you?" Ianto's voice was serious and I looked at him eyes wide, he was right, then he reached towards my chest lifting up the knife in it's leather sheath, " Alexandra, strength isn't being able to kill someone. Strength is the power to know how to let someone go, to have mercy on someone. To have forgiveness in your heart, then using that forgiveness on someone. Guilt hurts more than any cut from a blade or a bullet from a gun."

He sat back in his seat calmly looking at me, I took a moment to let the words sink in about what he was truly telling me, " Ianto... You're right."

He smiled at me and I smiled back, " Thank you really."

" Well since you two love birds back there are being all touchy feely emotional fun fest and aren't paying attention to what's going on around us, I suppose that I'll have to tell you that we are barely one mile out from the compound, get your gear on and get ready," Jack said sounding irritated with my and Ianto.

" J-jack... We're not love birds!" I blushed angrily as Ianto crawled in the back to change into his black stealth suit.

" Let's just say that I'm more than a little bit protective of Ianto, he is my best friend. Been part of Torchwood since the beginning," Jack said looking at me for second with the rear view mirror.

" It probably isn't helping your protective nature that you're also in a relationship with him either is it? Especially when he so willingly put his life on the line for you," I said to Jack as I took my own suit and climbed in the back passing Ianto.

I stripped down to the bare basics and pulled on the snug fitting suit, though it clung to my body like a second skin it was stretchy making movement as easy as possible. Around my neck was another piece that doubled as a hood and a face mask, in the material of the face mask was a air filter that would keep me safe from inhalation of most man made and alien chemicals. The suit was made of an alien materiel, similar to kelver but much lighter and thinner, not to mention that it was close to being twice as strong as any kelver made by the government for their military. I tied my hair up in a tight sock bun securing it to my head so that it couldn't be used against me in any hand to hand combat.

Once I was changed i crawled back up to the front by Ianto who was wearing something similar to what I had on, Jack though hadn't changed and didn't seem on planning too.

Angel's Cry Compound

Doctor POV

I was pulled out of the dark room and into a bright hallway making me snap my eyes shut and they watered angrily mixing with my own real tears, was hurting thousands of innocent Americans worth saving one person? I can't save everyone so who is worth saving to me? Alexandra of course is and always will be my top priority, she is the last true timelord and I have to protect her, the chair I was on was pushed off the dolly throwing me off balance and I fell to the ground with a hard jerk the chair landing on top of me.

" Awww! You're so clumsy Doctor!" the small girl giggled as TIckle hauled me up to an upright position and I glared at the small girl now able to see her full form.

She couldn't have been much older than seven, outwardly she had such an innocence that you could never imagine that she was part of an hacker terrorist group. She was platinum blonde, with tan skin and ice blue eyes, those eyes, they would always haunt me, she had seen so much pain and bloodshed. A little girl in a sundress would be the most adorable image to anyone right? No... all I could see from this girl is a small once pure girl now spattered in the blood of her fellow man, maybe even her own family. It made me feel sick to my stomach even thinking about it but what made worse was that someone made her like this, that she didn't chose her path out of free will. She giggled again and I grit my teeth as she opened a steel fortified door inside was the whole computer programed mind of the organization.

" This will be your new home Doctor!" she smiled as I was wheeled inside of the room, " And before the silly thought comes across your mind don't even try to use these computers to hack into the mainframe to call for help. There will be someone in here at all times to make sure that you don't try anything funny." There was a quick knock on the door, " Ahh! That must be your new little friend! Come in!"

I was expecting another one of the Angel's Cry goons but it was a girl, she had silver hair and violet hair, my heart started to pick up in tempo. Alexandra? She was wearing a combat outfit a survival knife on a chain was around her neck, a cameo back pack hooked over her shoulders.

" I'm here to save you Doctor," she said smiling.
