A/N: I have been asked by FF author, Charlie Rho Sigma, if she can translate my Parallel Universe Series into Spanish! The first chapter of the story, will be up on June 20th, on Charlie's account.


The 51st Century

The door opened and bright light came streaming through. I shielded my eyes till I was used to it. No wonder Jack had the shades down in the apartment, or flat… whatever it was called in the 51st century.

When the brightness in my eyes cleared, what I saw amazed me. The city was like any normal city except the buildings were white and black. People were walking by, sometimes in the same outfit and others in different. I looked up. The sky was clear blue and I saw hover cars flying in straight patterns like roads in the sky.

Jack laughed at my expression. "Oh yeah, it survives. There are a few time which I would have bet against it, but it survives. Granted we are on a different planet, but it still has the same name, Earth Mark Two."

I looked at Jack, smiling. "This is amazing."

Jack smiled. "Wait till you see the Agency."

Jack lead me down a couple streets before gesturing that we go inside a gigantic building. "Is this the Agency?" I asked.

Jack laughed. "Of course not. This is the transportation we take to get to the Agency." We walked up the steps and into the building. I saw what looked like a 51st century version of a train station. There were booths set up and lines of people waiting to get tickets. Jack lead me to a line which had only two or three people waiting in it. Jack whispered to me, "This is the ticket to get on a shuttle to the Time Agency."

"Why are there less people on this one then the others?" I asked, curious.

"Because the Time Agency is still relatively new and right now has a bad name."

"Why?" I asked.

"Curious little thing, aren't you." Jack said. "Well, there was a huge scandal a couple years ago and they've had a bad name ever since."

I frowned. "Firstly, don't call me little thing. Secondly, they still have scandals in the 51st century?"

"Oh yeah." Jack said. "We wouldn't be humans without them. Some of them are pretty annoying at times, like when it affects other people, but if it only affects their life, I'm perfectly fine with them making a mess out of theirs."

"Oh, the 21st century has its fare share of scandals." I told Jack as the queue stepped forward.

"Really?" Jack asked. "How 'bout the President of a country having sex with an alien dignitary and keeping it secret for five years when he already had a human wife and two children."

"Ouch." I said, grimacing. "Yeah, nothing like that. Most of ours has to do with money and government positions and more money. I guess humans are the same everywhere you go."

"Yeah." Jack said. The queue moved forward again and we were next.

"Name and rank." Said the male security guard. The guard was wearing all black with some white outlines around the outsides of the arms and legs, presumably going down to his shoes. He had a black cap on with what looked like a more efficient blue-tooth.

"Captain Jack Harkness. I'm hear to bring in Miss. Anderson in for questioning."

The guard turned to me. "Name and century."

"Susan Jane Anderson. 21st Century."

The guard typed furiously at his keyboard and then said, "Susan Jane Anderson, negotiations at Torchwood three. Here's your pass." The guard handed me a piece of paper and I held on to it. "Next." The guard called.

We walked through onto the waiting platform in silence. Then Jack said, "You work for Torchwood? Isn't that like the first defense operation of Earth...ever?"

I grimaced. "Yeah." I said. "Though we did have UNIT as well."

Jack snapped his fingers as we sat down on a bench and waited for our shuttle to arrive. "That's called… lets see if I can remember my history… Unified Intelligence... Taskwork… something like that?"

I laughed. "No. It's Unified Intelligence Taskforce."

"Damn." Jack muttered. Then we fell into an awkward silence. My mind started to wander to places where I didn't want it to. I was being brought into the Time Agency for questioning. How the hell was I supposed to keep my species a secret?

And Jack.

Jack. He didn't know me… well he knew me now but he wasn't into… no that's not the right word. Wasn't going to look at me twice. All he saw was someone who he assumed stole a vortex manipulator and decided to travel in time. My hearts were hurting so I stopped thinking about it and wondered what The Doctor was doing now.

By now he had already crashed into Amelia Pond's garden and meet younger Amy. He might have already meet older Amy and had gotten knocked out with a cricket bat. I bit my side of my mouth to keep from laughing. Boy I wish I could have been there to see his reaction to older Amy. I sighed.

"Shuttle to the Time Agency, now docking. Now boarding passengers." A voice said over the com.

Jack stood up and I slowly followed suit. "Come on. It only takes a short flight to get to the Agency."

I nodded and followed Jack onto the shuttle. The seats were set up, movie style, with a single pathway down the middle. Around forty people could sit in here at once. The seats sat four to a row and five back on each side.

I slid in first in the second to last row and got the window seat. There were ten people total in the shuttle with and including us. "Please put on your seat build and enjoy your ride." The same voice as earlier said on the com.

I jumped as straps came from the top of the seat and crossed over me to plug into buckles attached to either side of the seat.

Jack noticed my jump and said, "Yeah, their fully automatic. You'll get used to it."

I nodded as we took of. We went straight for a couple minutes, picking up speed, but I knew I was the only one who could feel it because it was very faint, even for me to detect. Then the shuttle jerked forward and went… up.

I turned my head at Jack. "Jack." I said slowly. "Why are we going up?"

Jack turned and looked at me. "Did you really think that the Time Agency was going to be on Earth?"

Jack asked with a slight smirk as if Jack was daring me to ask where it could possibly be.

I gave up. "Where is it?" I asked.

Jack smiled and said, "On the Moon."
