{The Army Of Ghost Part I}
Plant Earth. This where I was born. And this is where I died. For the first nineteen years of my life, nothing happened. Nothing at. Not ever. Then I met a man called the Doctor. A man that could change his face. And he took me away from home in his magical machine. He showed me the whole in time and space. I thought it would never end. That's what I thought. Then came the army of ghost. Then came Torchwood and War. My life with my best friend. My life with my husband and the father of my child. I thought we could never be torn apart. But I was wrong. This is the story of how I died.

The TARIDS materialized at the park near the Powell Estate. The Doctor shifted the heavy bag of clothes on his shoulder as they climbed the stairs to Jackie's apartment. He had suggested that they take the elevator since she was in fourth month of pregnancy, but Rose had given him a look to kill decided not to argue with is wife. He didn't want to sleep on the couch like he did last night. The TARDIS made sure that he couldn't get into another bedroom. So he slept on very hard couch.
"Mum it's us! We're back!" called Rose as the entered the apartment.
"Oh, I don't know why you bother with that phone. You never use it!" said Jackie.
"Oh shut up and come here!" said Rose happily.
"I love you. I love you." said Jackie hugging her daughter tightly. She pulled back. "Look at you!" She rested her hand on Rose's belly.
The Doctor sat down the large back of clothes on the floor. He put his hands on his back and popped it loudly. He slipped passed Jackie when she pulled Rose into another hug.
"Oh no you don't. Come here." said Jackie and kissed the Doctor. "You lovely fella' you're all mine." She held him close nearly picking him up off his feet.
"Just, just, just put me down!"
"Oh yes you are!" Jackie sat him back down on his feet.
Rose turned and picked up her bag. "I have tons of clothes for you."
"Guess who's coming to visit?" asked Jackie. "You're just in time. He'll be here at ten past. We'll guess."
"No I hate guessing. Just tell me." said Rose placing her hands supporting her slight bit of weight.
"It's your granddad. Granddad Prentice. He's on his way any minute. Right, cup of tea."
"She's gone mad."
"Tell me something new." said the Doctor.
Rose hit him on the arm. "Being rude again."
"Oww," He said rubbing his right arm from force of her slap.
Jackie walked into the kitchen and got tea started, and Rose and the Doctor followed her. They waited for this, "ghost," to appear. Just then a foggy black figure stood in the room. Rose looked at her husband and back to her mother. Jackie told her father about how Rose had grown.
The Doctor and Rose went outside and found the ghost everywhere. They were playing with children in the street, and sitting with the elderly.
"They're everywhere!" said the Doctor.
"Doctor look out!" said Rose, just then one walked through his body.
Jackie walked up to the couple and said, "The midday shift is about to end."
"Since when do ghosts have shifts? Since when did ghost have shifts? And when did shifts have ghosts?" asked the Doctor as he watched them all vanish from sight.

In a lever room a man pulled the leaver down ending the ghost shift. A woman entered through a glass door that read, "TORCHWOOD," entered the room. She congratulated the workers on their ghost shifts.

The Doctor sat on the couch with is glasses perched up on his nose as he flipped through the channels. He pulled out his sonic screwdriver and clicked the button and stuck it back into his pocket and flipped through the foreign channels.
"They're all over the world." said the Doctor.
He sat the remote down on the table and sat back and watched ghost appear on soap opera. He removed his glasses and stuck them inside his pocket. He pulled out the wedding cloth and smiled at it and put it back inside his breast pocket.
Rose sat at the table with her mother nursing a hot cup of tea. She listened to Jackie trying to convince her that the ghost was her grandfather. Rose sighed heavily and sat her cup down on the table.
"I'm sorry Mum, but the dead can not come back to life." said Rose.
The Doctor walked over to the women. He had been listening to them talk. "I'm sorry Jackie but there's no cigarette smoke. It's nothing but a memory."
Rose turned her head to her husband, "Then if they're not ghost then what are they?"
"But they're human. They look human!" said Jackie wanting it to be a ghost, wanting it to be late her father.
"She does have a point. They're a blur, but they look human." Rose pointed out.
"Maybe not. They're pressing themselves into the surface of the world. But a footprint doesn't look like a boot." said the Doctor.
Rose sat and thought about her husband's words. "You said, "Pressing?" He nodded his head. "Well, there are parallel worlds. You said we fell through a crack in time when we lost the time vortex. Could they be crashing against one another?"
"The void. Some call it hell." said the Doctor. "But if they're passing through dimensions they would be trapped in the void." said the Doctor. He sat in thought. "It's impossible."
Rose crossed her arms over chest and raised a brow at him. "And being on a planet below a black hole was impossible."
"The Time Lords sealed off all the passages between worlds, Rose." said the Doctor.
"What about a rift." Rose stalled and her eyes widen.
"The rift. Canary Wharf!" said the Doctor and pulled his wife up out the chair. "You're brilliant." He kissed on the lips. "Brilliant!"
"But now we'll just have to wait until next ghost shift and snag ourselves a ghost." whispered Rose in the Doctor's ear. She smirked when she felt him shutter.
"To TARDIS." said the Doctor in a slight husky voice. "We need to get things set up."

Meanwhile at Torchwood, Yvonne Hartmen walked around the workers that maintained the computers systems that kept the leaver system workable. They all wore blue earpieces to communicate. But unnoticed by Yvonne two workers had two ear pods in instead of one. She was worried about the next ghost shift and the sphere that was in basement.
Yvonne sat her computer talking with scientist about the sphere. He told her that the reading show that it shouldn't exist, but was in front of them. And they couldn't find away to get inside it, and they would run more tests on it.

On an unused floor hidden behind thick curtain where construction work of being held. A Cybermen stood waiting to for orders. They would take over Torchwood, and the human race.

Rose walked into the TARIDS with a newspaper. "According to the paper, they've elected a ghost as MP for Leeds. What are you doing?"
The Doctor came up from the lower part of the TARDIS wearing a back pack holding a hosepipe like device. "Who are you going to call?"
"Ghostbusters!"
"I an't afraid of no ghost."
Rose laughed and followed the Doctor out of the TARDIS watching him set up several cones linked with wires in a circle.
"When's the next shift?" asked the Time Lord.
"Quarter to. But don't cause trouble. What's that do?" asked Jackie.
"Triangulates their point of origin." said the Doctor.
"I don't suppose it's the Gelth?"
"Nah. They were just coming through on little rift. This lot is transposing themselves over the whole planet. Like tracking paper." explained the Doctor.
"You're always doing this reducing everything to science. Why can't it be real? Just think of it, though. All the people we've lost. Our families coming back home. Don't you think it's beautiful?"
"I think it's horrific." said the Doctor. "Rose, give us a hand," and she helped him finish setting up the machine.
The Doctor ran inside the TARIDS followed by Rose and Jackie. He set up the long thick wire that ran from the control of the TARDIS to the cones.
"This will take some of her power. You might feel light headed." said the Doctor.
"I'll be fine." said Rose and he showed her what to do with controls. He handed her his screwdriver and left the phone box.
Jackie stood by and watched her daughter. She didn't see Rose anymore. She didn't know who she saw. She remembered the Doctor telling her that Rose was only part human and part Time Lord. She a had some of the TARIDS inside her body.
"You've changed so much Rose." said Jackie.
"Yea for the better. It's still holding!"
"What are you going to be doing when I'm dead and buried?"
She looked away from the screen over at her mother. "Don't talk like that Mum. I'll be traveling and taking care of this little guy." She rested her hand on her belly. She chuckled, "He's already talking about having another one, and I haven't even had this one!"
"I just need to know if you are happy Rose?" asked Jackie.
"Yes. I'm very happy." she said and gently rubbed the TARDIS console. "I've found my place in the universe."
Jackie smiled and hugged her daughter. "Then that's all I needed to know sweetheart."
"The scanner's working! It says delta one six!" yelled Rose.

The Doctor smiled, "Come on you beauty!

Yvonne stood in front of large white wall between two large leavers. She ordered for them to go into ghost shift. The people at the computers pounded away on their keys. Then alarms sounded signaling that something was interfering with the shift.
She walked over to nearby worker. "What we've got?"
Matt said, "Something's interfering with ghost field."
"Location?"
"It's close. It's within the city."
{}
The Doctor slipped on a pair paper red and blue 3D glasses and adjusted the device. The ghost began to writhe in field.
"You don't like that, do you?" asked the Doctor. "Who are you? Where are you coming from? Whoa!" The ghost tried to breakout of the field. "Not very friendly, are you?" He grabbed the cones and ran inside the TARDIS. "HA! I told you they were forcing there way through. Now we just need to follow the signal." The Doctor flipped a leaver. "Allons-y!
{}
Yvonne ordered for the computers to go offline. The workers quickly ended the ghost shift. She turned her attention to the camera that near the park at Powell Estate. She saw the Blue Police Public Call Phone Box. She saw the Doctor enter the TARDIS and it slowly vanish. She ran down the hall. They had the Doctor coming and he could figure out how to open the sphere that was in lower part of the tower.
