Torchwood Life Part 1
"Owen, what's the story with the space pig thing?" Jack asks his medical officer.
"I don't know. Ask Toshiko." Owen grumpily replied.
Jack shook his head and walked away from the autopsy room. It was only Toshiko third week with Torchwood and already she had to cover Owen's lateness because he was oversleeping from a hangover. Suzie sat at her workstation, working on logging recent rift activity and Toshiko was nowhere to be seen. Jack returned to his office, and opened the folder that had really no relevance to Torchwood itself. Well it kind of did. It contained information and sightings of one woman over the past one hundred and fifty years, to most people meant nothing, however to Jack, meant a lot. In his many years on Earth, he had encountered many aliens but when a Time Lord and two humans take his eye the first time he was in 1941, it changed his life forever. He knew that The Doctor and Rose were having their little adventures, but the human time-traveller, Grace (or so he thought that was her name), had caught his eye. In the last one hundred and fifty years, this girl had been spotted in several different time periods at times in two places at once; each time under a different name, but the same face. Jack leaned back in his chair contemplating how this girl had managed to obtain equipment like his vortex manipulator. Well, exactly like his vortex manipulator. He shifted his gaze to the brown, leather gizmo on his wrist. What if this was a message? A message for him to warn him; but to warn him about what? Nothing was making any sense and when nothing made sense only one thing could help that.
"Who's up for pizza?" Jack asked, and this helped ease his mind. Sometimes, things need to be left only to discover the real truth.
