Everything Changes (Part 1)-

[Crime scene]

(Cardiff, Wales, GB. Night, and it is raining on the Scene Of Crime Officers in their white overalls as they examine the body of a young man. A policeman gives a takeaway coffee to a policewoman.)

"Look honey, it's you" B-Rys said in excitement as he pointed to the screen.

B-Gwen smiled at her boyfriend's excitement and thought, 'The creators of these videos have good taste'

"Yeah they do" Imortia said from her perch, a grin on her face as B-Gwen jumped.

GWEN: Ah, sweetheart.
MAN: Haven't got enough, you didn't order.
GWEN: Well, I've only just arrived, so tough.
MAN: Well, what do I do now?
(She ducks under the tape and speaks to another sodden policeman, her partner.)
GWEN: Who is it?
ANDY: Dunno. Some bloke. You going to Slimbo's on Friday?
GWEN: What is it, drinks?
ANDY: Bit of a pizza, I think.
GWEN: Might do, yeah.
(Then the SOCOs are being told to leave the scene.)
ANDY: Aye, aye. What's happening there, then?
RADIO: SOCOs are leaving the scene, over.
ANDY: Move back, if you could, thank you. Back you go. That's it, back you go.
GWEN: What's going on?
(She goes to one of the SOCOs.)
GWEN: Excuse me, sir. What is it? What's happening?
SOCO: Buggered if I know. It's orders from above.
GWEN: But the body's still in there though, isn't it? We can't just leave it.
SOCO: Move back, they said. Clear the site. Special access, they said.
GWEN: For who?
SOCO: Torchwood.

"Finally, something interesting"

The pasts gasped and turned at the strange statically sound and saw a black eyed, silver haired girl with unhealthy pale skin.

"Cyber! Good to see you up and about" FJack said as he got up and went to her.

"Hello father, I apologize for the unannounced arrival" the girl, Cyber, said.

"No apology needed, wanna sit with myself and Yan?"

"It's 'Yan and myself' sir" FIanto corrected automatically.

Future Jack did the adult thing and stuck his tongue out at his young mate.

"Very well" Cyber followed her childish parent to the seat and sat next to FJack (Imortia sat next to FIanto).

"Why'd you name her Cyber?" S1Jack asked suspiciously.

"Spoilers" FIanto sing-songed teasingly.

"Can we get back to the show?" S1Gwen asked impatiently.

Imortia rolled her eyes, "Jackass"

"Imortia" FIanto hissed, "you never told me you've seen Jack's ass"

The future, D1 and D4 parts laughed, much to the past's confusion.

(A big black modified Range Rover Vogue arrives, and four people let by a man in a long coat get out. They march into the crime scene.)
GWEN: Who's Torchwood?

"Classified" PJack stated automatically.

SOCO: Special ops or something. Is that hot?
(The coffee.)
GWEN: Er, yeah. Have it. But they're not allowed in there. They could contaminate the evidence and all sorts. I mean, how come they
SOCO: Don't ask me. There's no procedure any more. It's a fucking disgrace.

"Isn't being a disgrace fun?" Imortia grinned and Cyber gave a static-y laugh.

(Gwen heads off up the stairs of the multistory car park overlooking the crime scene to get a better view from level 5. She can hear the mystery people speaking.)
JACK: (American) There you go. I can taste it. Oestrogen. Definitely oestrogen. You take the Pill, flush it away. It enters the water cycle, feminises the fish.

Those who didn't understand a word he said gave a slight 'huh?' while those who did either glared in annoyance or snickered.

(One of his female colleagues takes a metal gauntlet from a case and puts it on her right hand.)
JACK: Goes all the way up into the sky, then falls all the way back down on to me. Contraceptives in the rain. Love this planet. Still, at least I won't get pregnant. Never doing that again. How's it going?

"Yes you will" FIanto stated cheerfully.

BSJack frowned at him in confusion while Imortia gave him a happy wave.

BSJack looked at her, shocked.

SUZIE: Nothing yet. It's got to connect. I've just got to feel it.
(The man with the small video camera is not happy.)
OWEN: Hurry up and feel it. I'm freezing my arse off here.
SUZIE: I can't just flick a switch. It's more like access. It grants me access.
OWEN: Whatever that means.
SUZIE: It's like. Oh, oh, oh.
(The palm of the gauntlet is glowing blue.)
JACK: Positions.
OWEN: If I get punched again, I'm punching him right back.
JACK: Just concentrate. Suzie.
(Suzie kneels behind the dead man and cradles his head in the gauntlet. The crime scene lights grow brighter, the rain stops, then the dead man wakes up.)
DEAD: There was. What was. I was, I was. Oh, my God. I was going home.
TOSH: (Oriental woman) Listen to me. We've only got two minutes so it's important that you listen, okay?
DEAD: Who are you?
TOSH: Trust me. You're dead.

"Trust me, I'm the Doctor... oh and by the way, you're dead" Imortia sated in an Ianto cheerful way.

Owen snickered.

DEAD: How am I dead?
OWEN: You were stabbed.
DEAD: I'm not dead. I can see you.

"I'm dead and I can see everyone"Cyber stated blandly.

TOSH: We've brought you back, but we haven't got long. I'm sorry, but you've got to concentrate. Who did this to you? What did you see?
DEAD: Why am I dead?
TOSH: Who attacked you?
DEAD: I don't want to be dead.
SUZIE: Sixty seconds.
TOSH: You've got to think. Just focus on me. What was the last thing you saw?
DEAD: I didn't see. I don't know.
TOSH: Who killed you? Did you see them?
DEAD: I don't know. There was something behind me.
OWEN: Police said one stab wound in the back.
TOSH: So you didn't see anything.
DEAD: No. What happens now?
SUZIE: Thirty seconds.
TOSH: But he didn't see anyone.
SUZIE: Don't waste it.
TOSH: What else do I say?
JACK: What's your name?
DEAD: John. John Tucker.
JACK: Okay, John. Not long now.
DEAD: Who are you?
JACK: Captain Jack Harkness. Tell me, what was it like when you died? What did you see? John, tell me what you saw.
SUZIE: Ten seconds.
DEAD: Nothing. I saw nothing. Oh, my God. There's nothing.
(And he dies, again.)
OWEN: Shit. I said it was stupid, telling him he was dead.
TOSH: Well, you try it.
OWEN: Trust me, like that's gonna work.
JACK: Told the last corpse he was injured, he wasted the whole two minutes screaming for an ambulance. Maybe there's no right way of doing it.
(He looks up at Gwen and shouts.)
JACK: What do you think?
(She runs.)

"Gotta love the running" D1Jack grinned.

Sorry about the long wait, writing TW reactions is stressful and hard.
