The Start Of A New Beginning

The Start Of A New Beginning

Rose was practically kicking herself at her own stupidity. She should have realised they were weeping angels and not to blink or to take her eyes off them for a single second.

Ever since she changed, she could identify species she had never encountered before. She had been transported to god knows where. This was the last thing she needed. She knew without anyway of travelling through time and space, that she was stuck wherever she had landed.

She quickly started to walk forwards, hoping to find a newspaper so that she could find out where and when she was. The place looked somewhat familiar to her; she could not explain why exactly, it just did.

She continued to walk for a short distance, until she noticed a large glass dome, an extremely familiar large glass dome. She suddenly grinned like a Cheshire cat, knowing exactly where she was, but not knowing when exactly. Her time sense, it was rattled from the journey and having been in the other reality for so long.

She quickly took out her phone The Doctor had given to her. She never had the heart to get rid of it. She quickly located Jack’s number, hoping he had not changed his number. Jack had given her his phone number not knowing The Doctor had planned to send her back to the other world. He had stated if she ever needed to talk, that he would be there to listen.

Rose hoped Jack would answer and could help her locate The Doctor. He needed to know of the situation, know what an adulterous wanker his duplicate half-human self was.

Rose found the number and pressed the call button. She then placed it to her ear and silently prayed that Jack answered and was not in the middle of a crisis of his own.

Three rings later the man himself answered, he sounded out of breath and slightly panicked, Rose noted. “Jack, believe it or not it’s me, Rose. I am back, had a run in with a group of weeping angels, and forgot to not blink or look away.”

She added, “I suspect I must have been spat right out of the bloody rift. You at Torchwood three monitor all rift activity and should know that something has come through it, me in this case.”

Rose scoffed and rolled her eyes and snapped, “Yeah Jack, I’m more then damn well aware of the fact I don’t sound like my good ole Londoner self anymore. Please just get down here, come armed to the bloody teeth if you want to I don’t care, just get here damn it.”

She added, “I don’t want to enter the Hub uninvited, and don’t want to draw any more attention to myself then necessary. Let us just say this, I am not what you would call human these days, Jack, please. I’ll explain when we are inside of your headquarters.”

She concluded, “I suspect you have surveillance cameras all over the place monitoring this area. I want you to scan the whole area around the Millennium centre. I’ll wave; let me know if you can see me.”

Rose rolled her eyes and started waving, she felt bloody foolish, as she appeared as if she was waving at nothing. She growled, “Can you see me, Jack. I feel bloody foolish, like I’m waving at nothing?”

She heard an amused and partly shocked sounding chuckle, “Whoa Rosie, what have you done to yourself?” Rose sighed, pinched the bridge of her nose, and replied, “That’s just it, Jack, I’ve not done this to myself. The TARDIS has.”

There was a lingering silence on the other end of the line, before Jack said firmly, “Stay there Rosie, I’m going to come and get you and bring an old friend of yours with me.” Rose nodded and said, “Thanks Jack.” She then hung up and waited.

Less than ten minutes later she saw Jack appear along with Mickey Smith. She grinned at the sight of the dark skinned man. Then before she knew what hit her, Mickey lifted off her feet and spun around in a circle.

Rose laughed in delight and exclaimed, “Oh honestly, Mick, put me down.” He did and stood back while Jack took her into his arms in a tight bear hug and placed a kiss on top of her head. He then pulled back and held her at arm’s length so that he could get a better look at her. He shook his head and said, “It’s great to have you back, Rosie. What the hell happened to you?”

Rose smiled tiredly and replied, “I’ll explain once we get inside.” Mickey visibly blanched at the sound of her voice and accent, “Your accent is just like the Doctors when he had the big ears and leather jacket.”

Jack placed an arm around her shoulders and squeezed affectionately as they headed for the hub, Mickey following. Jack commented, “Yeah and she’s earned herself a gorgeous set of blue ones there and a tan to die for. You are actually a couple of inches taller as well. Love the hair by the way. You make a great strawberry blonde, Rosie.”

Rose smirked before she nodded, and said, “Like I said, The TARDIS has been a very, very busy girl, has been slowly changing me since satellite five in fact.” Mickey frowned as he asked, “What do you mean by changing?” Rose said, “I’ll explain all once inside, Mick.” Mickey reluctantly nodded.
