Good afternoon/morning/whatever time you live in! I decided to throw in some of my recent chapters all together. Enjoy!

Captain Jack Harkness-

It couldn't have been a more normal day. As far as normal even goes for me though, I mean, I work in Torchwood. Not a single day has ever been normal. Then again, that might mean it's the norm for me to not have a normal day. So here I was, having the Captain Jack Harkness version of a normal 24 hour day. I was working on filing some important papers for the Queen, explaining why exactly Torchwood refused to release any info at all about its operations to her. This has to be one of the few most repetitive things I do on my time off. The last letter hardly made its way out the door when a new request came from the Queen.

As it turns out, I was just about finished when I heard it; THAT sound. It was the metallic screeching of the brakes being left on in a very specific Time machine as it was materializing. By the sound, it was somewhere within a ten mile radius. Quickly I stood, excitement rising in my throat, as I remembered all the adventures I'd been on with The Doctor. There was not a moment to lose. If this was the Doctor I remembered, then he would probably try to avoid me.

Grabbing my coat, and my traveling pack, I skidded out the door, passing Ianto who was holding some very good smelling pizza boxes.

"Hey! Where are you going?" He asked.

"Down the rabbit hole, Ianto," I shouted back at him "Down the rabbit hole."

The snowfall couldn't be more than an hour old. It was so fresh and smooth that only a few footprint paths, including my own, could be seen trailing through it. Of course that wouldn't stop the Doctor. For all I knew, he could be going down the next street over, passing me completely. The few people who were out and about stared at me, and I suppose they probably had good reason to. To them, I probably looked a lot like a strange sight, with my long, trailing, blue overcoat, and my tan hiking pack looming behind me. With a huff, I started running.

Knowing that I can't die has helped my physique a lot. Not that I didn't have a hot body before Rose Tyler changed me. It just helped to know that even if it hurts to run for so long, I can't die. So I might as well push my limits hard, right? Anyways, I was trekking along for about five or six minutes when he came into sight. My Doctor looked just like how I had envisioned him; tall, and skinny, sporting a pinstripe suit with a long brown overcoat. He wore a look of aloofness on his features, with just a dash of amusement when he saw me running at him. With a start, I realized that I had unconsciously started shouting his name. I didn't stop though, I ran straight at him full speed, determined to waste no possible time getting to him.

I jumped into his arms, pulling him into a bear hug so he couldn't get away.

"Doctor! How are you?" I chirped happily, refusing to allow any space between us.

He scowled grumpily. "Just dandy. I've got you glued to me, but other than that I'm just dandy." He struggled. "Could you please not try to suffocate me?"

I chuckled nervously, giddiness still pumping adrenaline through my veins. "Sorry Doctor," I said, forcing myself to release my hold. "It's just hard to believe that I'm seeing you again so soon!" I looked around, searching for his companion. Never had I ever found him to be without an assistant to show off for.

"So where's Martha?" I asked. "Or whoever is your companion at the moment…"

The Doctor's eyes strayed past my face in that way that made it clear he was walking down some memory lane while he answered. "Well, Martha wanted to spend some time with her family. I guess I can't blame her since they almost got killed a while back…" I scanned his face, sensing all the hurt, loneliness and exhaustion the Doctor was holding in.

"Hey, Wanna skip this joint? Unless, you know, there's a disaster here that I should be aware of." Jack let out a short laugh, and tried to give his biggest smile. The Doctor pulled his attention back and seemed to just notice that Jack had spoken.

"I'm sorry, but what did you say?" He asked apologetically. "My mind was… elsewhere."

I tightened my smile, trying to send positive vibes to my old friend. "Let's go somewhere and have some fun. Anywhere is fine; I just need to get away from this joint!" I observed the Doctor run a hand absentmindedly through his perfect hair. "How about somewhere known for its nightclubs? I like to dance and if I remember correctly, you know how to bust some moves." I tried throwing in a signature wink.

The Doctor smiled, seeming to forget his troubles for now. His chocolate brown eyes twinkled with a mischievous light. "Oh, I know the perfect place… Come on!" He grabbed my hand and turned, leading me back the way he had come from.

Then there she was, in all her glory. The TARDIS stood regally in its parked spot next to some crates. I paused in the doorway, allowing the Doctor to pass me. With a gentle hand, I caressed the blue wood-like doorway. She thrummed a welcome that reverberated through my entire being, and I beamed. "It's nice to see you too." I whispered.
