IT'S NOT VERY LONG BUT IT'S THE END AND ENDING ARE HARD SO ONCE I HAD ONE I DECIDED TO STICK TO IT. ENJOY :)


The world seemed to freeze for a moment as Leigh and Sam stared at each other then the world caught up with them, Everything happened pretty quickly after that Sam screamed in pain and collapsed and Leigh dropped the gun. The others came running over to Sam trying to stop the bleeding, Leigh just stood there stunned,

"I didn't I didn't mean to," she whispered over and over again,

"It's okay Leigh," someone told her she wasn't sure who as she watched her mothers eyes glaze over as her spirit left her body.

An hour later Sams body was sitting down in the morgue and Kayla and Josh we're in the cells. Leigh was sitting on Torchwoods ratty looking couch her eyes staring off into the distance no one could get her to talk, not even David who Matthew had called not long after Sam had died. Ianto sat down next to her wrapping his arms around her still body hugging her close she returned his hug resting her head on his chest listening to his steady heartbeat. She didn't cry over her mothers death they'd never been close like that but she hadn't wanted her dead especially by her own hand. Jack chose that moment to walk back into the hub,

"Okay so all of Sams hacks are now gone from the system,"

"What about Kayla and Josh?" Matthew asked,

"Once the Retcon kicks in they'll be shipped home. What are you two going to do?"

"We'll go back home, Torchwood NYC still needs people working there keeping things in order,"

"Alright but you know we could use a doctor here,"

"Sorry," David smiled, "But me and him come as a package deal and my home's in New York,"

"Fair enough. If you ever change your minds you know where we are."

The next day David and Matthew were saying there goodbyes. David hugged Jack,

"Where's Leigh?"

"I have no idea. Leigh come out here and say goodbye would ya!"

Leigh came out of her room her bag she had arrived with slung over her shoulder,

"I don't need to say goodbye I'm going with them,"

"What Leigh you can't,"

She dropped her bag down, "Yeah I can and I will with Sam gone Torchwood New York need a leader. That is if they'll have me?"

Matthew smiled, "Of course we will,"

"Sweetheart you can't. You don't know how to run a Torchwood base,"

"Oh yeah I watch you do it everyday Dad. This is what I want to do. You inspired me that's what parents are suppose to do and I have loved living here with you these past months but it's time for me to step up,"

"Leigh," Ianto moaned, he was on the brink of tears. She smiled at him and engulfed him in a hug whispering in his ear,

"I love you so much welshie. You are such an amazing person and you look after my dad for me,"

Ianto nodded against her shoulder and pulled away, "I'm going to miss you," he gave her a peck on the cheek and let go of her arms. She walked over to Gwen looking her straight in the eyes,

"Look I don't like you very much I never have but you be good to that cutie Rhys,"

"I will be, and for what it's worth I will miss you Hay-Leigh."

Lastly Leigh walked over to her Dad who already had tear tracks on his face,

"You are the best Dad I could have ever asked for and I don't know what I'll do with out you just remember this isn't goodbye it's see you later," she hugged him tightly trying to memorise his scent,

"Better damn well be you have to promise to visit,"

"I promise Daddy." she pulled away from him and picked up her bag. With David and Matthew in toe Hay-Leigh Harkness walked proudly out of the hub as the new leader of Torchwood New York.
