Sammie sighed as she drummed her fingers aimlessly on the cool metal table she was sitting on in the hub. It was now three weeks since she had died and come back to life and things had moved on a lot since then but some things had stayed the same namely Owen giving her daily medical tests which consisted of her being poked and prodded to within an inch of her life. And today was no exception, she had only just got in from school and already Owen had dragged her towards the medical station and was preparing to probe her once again.

"Do we have to do this everyday?" she moaned

"Yeah" Owen said as he busied himself with preparing the needle

"Why?"

"Jack's orders" he smirked "Now roll up your sleeve please"

Sammie did with a pout on her face "I'm really getting fed up of this"

"Well let's just get on with this then" and Sammie nodded

"Right well you know the drill, first I'm going to take a blood sample then I'm going to check the usual; pulse, heart rate well you get the idea, now first you're going to feel a small prick" Sammie opened her mouth to reply but Owen quickly silence her "And no thanks I really don't want to hear one of your smart arse replies thanks" he laughed.

He pushed the needle into her bare arm and felt her wince as it pierced the skin, he took a sample of her blood and released the needle "There that wasn't so bad was it?" he said putting some cotton wool on her arm to stop the bleeding

"Easy for you to say you're not the one being probed everyday"

"Jack's just looking out for you anyway how do you feel today?"

"Fine!"

"Really?"

"Yes"

"Well your heartbeat is a little irregular again" Sammie groaned and let Owen continue "But Jack thinks it's to do with the energy channelling but I want to keep a close eye on you ok?"

"Yeah ok can I go now?" and Owen nodded

Sammie leapt of the bench and made her way into the main hub nearly colliding with Jack

"Sorry "she said as she narrowly dodged him

"What's the rush?" he said laughing

"No reason" she said dashing off

Jack shook his head and made his way down towards the medical station where he met with Owen

"How did it go?"

"Blood is normal and pulse is good but her heart beat was irregular again"

"I'm sure it's something to do with the energy channelling it's changing her inside"

"I'm worried because her heart beat is becoming more and more irregular"

"Could it be from when she came back to life?"

"Could be, does it happen to you?"

"No but then again we came back in different ways, she came back through energy channelling…"

"What?"

"There's something I need to tell you…"

"Go on…"

"We might have traces of the same DNA which means the she's getting energy from channelling it and from energy you get when you have the ability to come back to life"

"What do you mean we might?" Owen asked raising his eyebrows in concern

"Oh come on Owen what did they teach you in medical school?" Jack said sighing

"So what you're saying is that you're related?"

"Yeah"

"How did that happen?"

"Oh come on! You must have seen the lion king or do you want a diagram?"

"Ok ok does she know?"
"Nope…"

"Jack you have to tell her!"

"So what I am meant to say, oh by the way Sammie I'm your dad and the reason why your mother never mentioned me is because she didn't want you to ever know about torchwood"

Jack suddenly sensed something behind him and he turned around. There behind him stood Sammie who had now turned bright red at being found out

"I….I ummm I left my bag sorry" she mumbled as she grabbed her bag and ran out of the hub"

"How much do you think she heard?" Jack asked looking worried. Owen didn't reply but Jack knew his answer

"I have to go and find her" he said running out of the hub after her
