Nieve wandered the streets of Cardiff. She was getting restless. After the 456 Torchwood had fallen to pieces. Gwen Williams had held her own for awhile but after she died Torchwood became a myth once more but Nieve remembered. She had seen Torchwood begin and she wasn't ready to let it fall apart on her watch so she took over. It was hard being the only member of Torchwood and the sheer amount of work ensured that she was almost always exhausted. She was perfectly aware that she wanted to find more members for Torchwood but finding people who would be assets as well as being able to handle the lifestyle was very difficult. Her musings were cut off as her mobile began to ring. She knew that ring, she had specificly set it so it only sounded like that when there was a rift alert. Back to work. She looked over the message on her phone before she set of towards the location of the rift spike. By the size of it there was a good chance it was alive and she really couldn't be bothered to deal with lost aliens today. She could only hope that they weren't hostile.

The professor landed the tardis, smiling. He cracked his fingers and said "Ok dear. Do you like my new incarnation? I mean, yeah, i'm much younger, and my personality changed a lot, but am still the same." The tardis beeped in agreement, and the lights flashed, meaning she liked this incarnation. He smiled and said "OK, but you don't like my old clothes on this incarnation?" The tardis's lights flashed again. He said "Am going out for the day. Just recharge your power while i am gone." He left the tardis, smiling.
When he went outside, he looked around. Cardiff was still the same. He looked around, and scratched his head, his black curly hair the same as it had been. He was walking, when his vortex manipulator beeped. He looked at it and realized that the rift was gonna act up soon. He rubbed his palms together and said "Well, looks like today isn't gonna be a normal day." He had been planning to get new clothes.

She heard a beep, a distinctive beep. She would know that noise anywhere. Jack's vortex manipulator had made the same noise. She looked around and spotted a man with dark curly hair. She walked over to him and asked, "Who are you?" She was hoping that she had gotten lucky and this man knew all about time travel and aliens and things and would want to work for Torchwood. She deserved some good luck. There was a chance that she wouldn't have to do this alone any more. Her phone rang again and she knew that she needed to get to the rift activity site but more than anything she wanted to see who this man was. She clicked her phone off and glanced at the man, an internal debate going on within her head trying to decide whether to stay or go.

The professor looked at the woman and said "I'm....Your not gonna believe me, but i am the professor." He lowered his voice to a whisper and whispered to her "I'm a time lord. I'm 300 years old. I am in my second incarnation, and i am here to help with the rift." He rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, as he was still wearing most of his professor outfit, except for the tweed jacket, which had been ripped. He said "Who are you?" He wanted to know who this woman was. His irish accent had been pronounced as he told her what he was.

Ostyostyryx never intended to end up in another world. All she wanted was to not be late again for the next class but the first couple had been so boring! The little Tylythyn had done her best to keep awake but after twenty minutes of droning lectures her eye pupils simply thinned into slits and she fell into a deep sleep. The next thing she knew the whole class had gone and she was overdue at the next building for a demonstration in space engine building!
'Oh no oh no oh no!' She hurridedly gathered her tabletbooks and rushed out. No matter how fast she ran it was still going to be too late if she used the normal walkways so she decided to take a shortcut below. Since most Tylythynian buildings were high up in the trees and cliff faces very few ventured down to the jungle floor below but Osty was desparate. If she could just make a beeline on the ground instead of the winding hanging pathways she just might make it.
Scrabbling down headfirst on the huge tree trunk while still hanging on to her tabletbooks was difficult but she managed. Once on the ground she quickly packed them in her backpack as she should have done in the first place but haste seldom made for good choices. Yes! There it was, the next class building, just feet above her! She was going to make it!
Then...
The jungle floor seemed to open up below her and she tumbled, startled and very very confused. There had never been any cliff here, no canyons or gullies! What had happened? She threw out her hands and feet, trying to find any surface to cling to but there was nothing. She fell and fell and fell. She gave up screaming as she was running out of breath and then...
She was flopped onto a hard rock-like ground. Panting, she propped herself up on her hands and just stared down, trying to understand what had happened to her and where she was.

A sense of coldness hits all living to the bones, in the shadow a dark angel mended in the shadows. It watched the group. The Shadow of Owen lifted its head to observe these new recruits. He had deathly feeling that’s them. He could see the aura. He had died from radiation but he had been revived in this. Whatever it was? He had decided to hide. He had hid with the Weevils. He heard them. He had become there watcher. He calmed them. He became a mother to them. It was something he could do. He did not know how long he will be in this form? He wanted to be gone. He had control over the weevils. He saw another person and that came through the rift. The rift hurt Owen’s shadow. He pulled back. The pain was like someone stabbing his soul. He felt the Weevils growl in pain. The rift vanished and the shadow Owen felt at ease. He thought to the Weevils. Shh, it’s gone.

She looked him over before smiling at him. She had known time lords before and not all of them were good people but this man looked trust worthy and he said he wanted to help so who was she to argue. "My name is Nieve," she told him, "Nieve White and I am the current head of Torchwood." She put out her hand but then pulled it back and sighed before muttering to herself, "We don't have time for this." A little louder she told him, "If you want to help then lets go!" She waited a second to see his reaction before she ran off towards the site of the rift surge. There lying on the ground was a still form. She moved a little closer being very cautious, she didn't know if it was dangerous. She was quite close when...

The professor ran with nieve and pulled out his sonic screwdriver when they got over to the person. He scanned the person and read the readings. He smiled and said to nieve "A tylythyn. Wonderful species." He then said "The rift's acting up, and i have no idea why. We need to find out why. If something is trying to come through, other than this tylythin which seemed to have come without wanting to, we need to stop it. "

Voices and sounds came to Osty's ears as she tried to clear her mind. Late for class, she would be late for class! She must have fallen from the walkway and others gathered about to snicker at her misfortune. For a Thylythyn to fall was almost impossible so when one did it was a great source of amusement (and embarrassement for the fallen.) She struggled to her feet. "No..no...to class I must get.....not be late....not.."
She shook her head and her surroundings finally came into focus. This wasn't her home! Only on the rocky plains was the ground so smooth and hard (no pavement on Turusia!) And what were these strange creatures standing near her? She looked about wildly, trying to find something familiar, reassuring. There was nothing she recognized.
"No! St-stay back!" Osty's crest rose in alarm and her eye pupils enlarged. She swatted at them as she backed away. "Alone leave me! Away go!"

"A tylythyn. Wonderful species." He said. She frowned and told him, "I don't think I have ever heard of them before, it's a good thing that you are here. He continued, "The rift's acting up, and i have no idea why. We need to find out why. If something is trying to come through, other than this tylythin which seemed to have come without wanting to, we need to stop it. " She nodded and told him, "If we get back to the Hub I can run some tests and see what we find. We will figure this out."
She moved a little closer to the alien they had found and projected her emotions. She concentrated on sending out calming feelings. Moving slowly forward she said reassuringly, "It's okay, we aren't going to hurt you. Are you alright? Are you injured at all?" She didn't want anyone to be afraid of her she just wanted to help.

The professor looked at the alien and said calmly "Don't worry, we won't hurt you. You don't have to be afraid of me. I am a time lord, and you can trust us. We just want to help." He was trying to help this alien stay calm and not freak out. He looked at the thylythan and said "You feel through a rift in time and space. It transported you to this planet. I can take you back to your home planet later, but right now i need to help with the rift."

Osty was still backing away, hissing lowly. When the two creatures didn't make a move to attack she stopped but didn't want them any closer. "N-no, not hurt, I. But confused. This place, where is it? How did I come here? Time lord? Never heard of that race, have I and a rift?"
She held her head and shook it slightly. "Ooohh...know what to do, I don't! Very lost am I!"
