YAY! Lots of favourites, some alerts and reviews as well! Well bugger me! Thank you very much, justareader13, ohinyan, A Daydream Away, Kitten-KC, The Oncoming Wolf and xCAZx19.

And justareader- The answer to your question: You can probably guess for Torchwood, and for Doctor Who, this is post Rise of the Cybermen/Age of Steel. I know the timelines don't match that of the show, but I needed Toshiko to meet Rose.

Anyway, please read and enjoy+ reviews are welcome!

Her stomach exploded in searing pain, and she became vaguely aware of Jack screaming her name, and punching Geoffrey in the mouth. There was some more screaming, and she heard a female screaming for Jack, when the strong arms of Captain Jack slid beneath her, and lifted her from the ground. Jack was running through the field, with her slowly bleeding to death in his arms, as bullets ricocheted around them. She wasn't sure whether the tears on her face where from the pain from the bullet, or her fear for Jack's safety. At this point, although she had undying trust for this man, she could have strangled him with her bare hands.

"Why are you taking us to a wooden box!" She asked, panicked.

"It's bigger on the inside!" He called back, getting closer and closer to the box, until they were finally at the door.

"Listen Jack Harkness, I'm not exactly in the state for you riddles, but we need to be safe!"

"We will be! I told you, it's bigger on the inside!"

"Jack I-" and then they were in the door. "Oh my god." She whispered, from her vantage point in Jack's arms. Distracted from the bullet inside her for a moment, she gazed about her in wonder. "It's beautiful."

"This is the Doctor's spaceship, the TARDIS." Jack told her.

"Your Doctor?" She asked in awe, but the Captain was moving forward, barging through the room, through corridors, kicking open doors, until finally they entered a room somewhat similar to Owen's autopsy bay. 'Oh Owen.' She thought sadly, 'I'll never get to see you again, will I?' Jack deposited her on the operating table, and a blonde woman, and man with eyes like chocolate appeared over her.

"Hullo Toshiko." The man greeted her warmly. "I'm the Doctor, and this is Rose, and we're going to make sure you're alright." Tosh glared at him.

"You're going to make sure I'm alright? I've been shot in the stomach! And don't take that patronising tone with me!" The Doctor reeled back slightly.

"Right." He said after a while. "Well, we're going to get the bullet out of you, because if we don't, Jack will have no problem physically injuring us." Tosh nodded, and then the Doctor picked up a small metal tool.

"This will hurt." He warned.

-OoO-

The Doctor sighed, and leaned on the wall next to the door outside the med-bay. 'Another life saved', he thought contentedly, allowing himself a stupid grin.

"So," Rose began, appearing in the doorway beside him, making him jump about a foot in the air. "She was pretty."

"Hmm." The Doctor acknowledged, knowing full well where this was going.

"Not that I was looking or anything. What do you think?" She asked. Her attempt at a casual was truly appalling.

"I did notice," The Doctor began diplomatically. "But I also noticed the other pretty entity right beside me." He winked and strutted away playfully. He'd sounded just like Jack there. God help him.

-OoO-

Jack smiled lightly as he closed the door to the room Tosh was sleeping in. She looked so peaceful. He turned around, only to find himself nose to nose with the Doctor.

"How can a ship as brilliant as yours have no anaesthetic?" He asked, still rubbing the quickly fading bruise where Tosh had punched him mid operation, for leaving her alone.

"I don't know."The Doctor admitted truthfully. "And I hate not knowing!" Jack chuckled at this, and there was a comfortable pause. "Although I have to admit," The Doctor began, "Toshiko has one hell of a right hook on her." They heard Rose giggle, as they came into the control room.

"I know!" she cried, still laughing. "I sor'a stood back after tha'. Le' the Doctor be my 'uman shield."

"You should have seen Gwen after Tosh had finished with her!" Jack said, chuckling at the memory.

"Who's Gwen?" The Doctor asked. Jack perched himself on the railing beside Rose, who sat on the jump seat.

"She also works for Torchwood." Jack explained. "She's got a long-term boyfriend, who loves her to bits, but that didn't stop her sleeping with Owen, and that annoyed Tosh because she's always fancied Owen, though she likes to pretend that nobody knows."

"Ah-hah." Rose said, nodding. "So Tosh punched her?" Jack shook his head.

"Well, Gwen's always chasing after me, which by the way, is as annoying as hell, and she's always flirting with Ianto, who's another co-worker of ours, and that's Tosh's best friend, and one day, Tosh was almost at the end of her tether, and Gwen was being particularly annoying, so I gave Tosh permission to punch if she felt like it, and-"

"You did what? The Doctor asked mouth agape. "Is that how you treat your staff?"

"Well... more or less. But I love them, you know." He said smiling fondly at the thoughts of his loyal team. Then his face fell into an expression of disgust. "Except for Gwen." Rose could barely contain her giggles.

-OoO-

Toshiko woke slowly, and realized, with a start, that she was experiencing something different, something, that had become alien to her for the last few months. She was in a bed, and it was comfortable. Then she remembered it all. Villagers with pitchforks, being shot, the spaceship... She sat up and rubbed at her eyes. She felt no pain in her stomach now, and after the sleep, she felt well rested. She looked down at her body, and realized that she had somehow been changed into pyjamas, probably while she was sleeping.

"Bloody Harkness." She muttered darkly to herself. She stood up, her feet feeling the cold floor, and she felt the sudden urge to dive back into bed. She crept around the bed, to a stool with a set of clothes laid out on it, and a note pinned to them.

Tosh- It read. –Hope you're feeling better! The Doctor says that you'll feel like nothing happened, and I hope so, because we've got a surprise in store for you before we go home. Put on the clothes (Rose helped me pick them, I hope you like them!) and meet us in the control room. You'll know where to go! –Jack.

Tosh placed the note down behind her on the bed, and picked up the large quantity of material on the stool then gasped when she saw what it was. It was a 1950's style dress. It reached mid-calf, and was the most gorgeous thing Toshiko had ever seen. (Except for Owen.) It buttoned up at the top, and had a small sash of lace around the waist, and as simple as it was, it was beautiful. She quickly changed, then slipped the dark purple jacket over the top. She pulled her shoes on, and slipped in the ear rings provided. She looked like she'd been spat out of the 1950's. She opened the door and hurried down the corridor, until she found herself in the first room she'd arrived in, just in time to see the Doctor drive out of the door on a blue Vespa, followed closely by Jack on one very similar. Rose was leaning against the consol, in front of the door, laughing like her sides might have split.

"Um..." Tosh began nervously. "So that's normal here then?" She asked, giving Rose a fright.

"God! Ya scared me! And yeah, tha's normal roun' here." She grinned for a moment, and Toshiko couldn't help but register a cold note under the Cockney accent, before the blonde chucked her a motorbike helmet. "Come on then! We're gonna go see Elvis perfrom live!" And with that she hurried out the door. It took Toshiko a moment for that to sink in.

"Wait... what?" She asked, following Rose out of the door.
