Drive.

Gwen closed her eyes as she rested her head against the car headrest as Jack drove through the rain soaked streets of Cardiff. She was exhausted but knew that at least little Anwen would sleep through the night. She knew Rhys was watcing her but she just couldn't help but think of the last time they were in the black 4x4 they were there with Owen and Tosh.

"Donna?" Ianto spoke for the first time since he had got in the car.

"Yeah?" Donna fought the urge to yawn and failed.

"We keeping you awake back there?" Gwen smiled as she saw the red head pull a face.

"You know where this is? You do know where we are going?" Ianto had immediately distrusted the decision to return to Cardiff Bay. There were too many bad memories and he had a feeling that the people who were looking for them would be watching the old Tourist Information Centre. He didn't like it but had a feeling none of the others would listen.

"Yeah." Donna nodded. "My Grandad never let me down before. If he says there is something going on in that place, some Rift type stuff then there is some Rift type stuff."

"Ok." Ianto sighed. He had never met her legendary star gazing grandfather but he could see questioning her belief in the old man would only cause an argument; there had been enough of them already.

"Rhys?" Jack spoke as Gwen's eyes snapped open. She instantly recognised the old Tremorfa Steelworks as he drove the longest way to the old bay she had ever seen. "That baby sleeping?"

"Yeah." Rhys was still angry with them and still trying to understand why they had been attacked in the first place. It seemed Ianto and Donna were afraid but he just couldn't understand why the quiet welshman and the firey red head had anything to worry about. "She's a good sleeper."

"Runs in the family." Jack smiled.

"Don't push your luck." Gwen answered as she kept her eyes closed.

Jack smiled as he pulled the car into a patch of wasteland off the road between the old King's Head pub and the recycling bins off the main road. He loved Cardiff. Of all the cities and times he had lived 21st Century Cardiff was his favourite. He had told Gwen that this was where and when it all changed and he knew he was right. He killed the engine as the conversation in the car came to an abrupt end.

"Why are we here?" Rhys asked as Anwen chewed her dummy.

"I don't want to risk you and Donna going to the Hub. Especially when we have Anwen with us."

"Playing the caring grandfather are we?" Rhys spat back. Gwen closed her eyes again, she knew Rhys was angry, so was she but goading Jack into an argument was not going to help anyone.

"For once." Jack nodded.

"So?" Ianto asked.

"So, Donna and Rhys go to the pub."

"With the baby? I don't think so somehow." Gwen raised an eyebrow. "Do you know how many times me and andy raided that place with the Drugs Squad? My daughter is not going in there. No. I'm not having it, Jack." She turned to him.

"Not the bar." He sighed. "Chrissy is the landlady there, about the same age as Mary? Dark hair."

"Looks like an old Kat Slater? Yeah I knicked her a couple of times for serving kids."

"She's a sleeper for Torchwood. Rhys and Donna and little Anwen will be safe there. And it is just for tonight."

"Hold on, Spaceboy." Donna snapped as Jack turned in his seat to face her. "You may be Captain Jack 'Ooh I'm so perfect' Harkness but you aint dumping me in that dump!" Donna pointed at the battered door of the pub. "We stick together, it's as simple as that."

"You know why you have to stay behind." He stared at her as her eyes practically burned a whole through him. He instantly knew why the Doctor had got on so well with the cockney girl. She was not the meek little female that was going to do as she was told. Gwen was the same and in her own way so had been Toshiko.

"Don't you pull that card on me." She folded her arms as everyone in the car fell silent. No one knew what had happened to her before Jack had found her but it sounded as though it was too personal or too traumatic to talk about. Jack got out of the car and walked towards the recycling bin as Donna huffed and followed him. Ianto shrugged his shoulders at the couple still in the people carrier with him, he had no idea what was going on. He just wanted to get to the Hub.

The rain bounced off the tarmac as Donna marched across to him.

"Jack."

"Donna, I am not dragging that up." He blinked as the rain water got in his eyes. Donna nodded as her hair began to stick to her face.

"Let me be part of the team. I should be dead. You know that and I know that."

"You are."

"No, Ianto is. Gwen is. Even bloody mouthy Rhys is but me? No I'm damaged goods. I am!"

"Donna." Jack took a step closer to her. "You are not damaged. You went through Hell. You survived the memory wipe by the Doctor, you remembered me! Not only that but you escaped. You can do this with your eyes closed but I need you in one piece. Please Donna. Just look after my granddaughter for me. Torchwood has already almost cost me my relationship with my oldest daughter and her son. Don't let it cost me the only chance I have to be Anwen's grandfather."

"You and Sian are going to be ok?" Donna began to shiver.

"Well, she only swore at me once." He shrugged. "I should go to Fairwater, see if she's ok. See how Stephen is now."

"Get through this first. You know what the Rift is capable of. You know what damage that energy can do. Don't drag Sian and that child into this if we don't have to." Donna hugged her arms to herself.

"I wont." He sighed as Donna shook her head. "You ok? I never told the others how we met up again, how we found each other."

"Good, because I'd kill you Mr Live Forever!"

"I know." Jack laughed. "I know."

"Make sure you remember that." Donna smiled slightly as they walked back towards the car. "I'll get Rhys and the baby in the pub. You get down the Bay. See what is left of the Bat Cave."

"The Hub."

"Yeah, right. Whatever." She jogged back to the car as Ianto stepped out. Jack couldn't help but smile. He was home. In his favourite city in the Solar System with his family. They may certainly be disfunctional but they were there. Gwen, Anwen, Rhys, Ianto and Donna. He would never forget Owen and Toshiko but he knew they would be happy for him. All he had to do now was get back to the Hub and try to rebuild what had been destroyed in the Invasion attempt. The children of the Earth had survived, no thanks to him as it had turned out but they had. Now he had to try to make sure Wales wasn't dragged through the Rift and those persuing his team didn't succeed in destroying the legend of Torchwood and destroying any chance the Doctor and Amy would have of returning to Earth. He glanced at the sky as he thought about his friend in the little blue box darting around the universe and prayed he, Amy and Rory were safe. He prayed that somewhere Rose Tyler was doing the same thing he was, that her team were working to make sure the Rift was closed once those that had ripped it open again had been stopped. He smiled slightly as he remembered his last conversation with her.

"No Jack." She had smiled. "Not for the Doctor. My Doctor has gone, this one wont remember me. That's how it works yeah? Sarah Jane told me that once. So did Ace when we met but I'll do it. For you, Ianto and the others. It's still my home."

"Rose Tyler." He shook his head as he thought of the blonde dimension jumper. "Get ready girl, because Doctor or no Doctor you are coming home and this nightmare ends now."
