Entry Eight - Goodbye Tosh and Owen

As I'm writing this, I'm watching my husband sleep. It's funny saying that. My husband. I find it hard to sleep, because today... today I lost two of my best friends.

Toshiko Sato and Owen Harper. I loved you. Both of you. So much. I'm not sure how we'll survive without you, but somehow we will. Somehow we'll go on, because Torchwood always goes on. All of the things you've done for me, all of the times you've helped me out, all of.. I'll miss you.

This is all Gray's fault. Jack's brother, Gray. He had childhood issues, and was intent on ruining Jack's life from the inside outwards. He forced John Hart to blow up parts of Cardiff, putting the entire city into a state of panic. Rhys was brilliant throughout it all.

We're having a funeral for Toshiko on Friday. Martha's coming to Cardiff, her parents are flying over. It was all Jack's idea, and it's a brilliant one.

She was our friend, our collegue, our saviour so many times.

I'll miss them both.. and we'll never forget them.

Entry Seven - Gwen Cooper's Getting Married

Jack's back.

He returned a few weeks ago, along with his friend John Hart who beat, shot, threatened and poisoned the team. Well, we each gained one of those special treats in turn. Myself receiving the poisoning. Paralysing lipgloss! Seriously! A Jack taught trick, apparently, but luckily the team found and saved me. I literally owe them my life.

So much has happened recently. Rhys found out about Torchwood, Jack asked me to retcon him, but I couldn't - the man took a bullet for me. Plus, I love him, it's about time he knew what was going on.

Then we met Martha Jones, a friend of Jack's. From what I worked out, she was with him that whole time he was gone. She's sweet, I like her. She works for UNIT, another alien investigating team, and came to help us working on a few mysterious deaths around the place.

We found out about this drug, Reset, which Owen explained would sort of 'set your body back to it's factory settings'. Greatest medical discovery in history? It would be, apart from the fact that it comes hand in hand with a killer alien parasite - the Mayfly.

Martha Jones went undercover at the Pharm, but after we lost contact, we knew we had to go in and find her. Once inside, we found what looked like a battery farm, full of different alien species. Martha had been infected with the Mayfly and Owen saved her, using the Singularity Scalpel, but then went on to get shot through the heart by the head of the Pharm.

He died, but Jack brought him back using the OTHER glove. It brought him back, but he's dead, technically. His body cells are dead, his brain is the only part of him alive, really. But he's still the same old Owen - apart from the sex, drink, and sleep thing he loved that he can no longer do.

Happier news, however, in my personal life. Rhys asked me to marry him. I said yes. And now, I have to go and arrange with caterers and whatnot. Fun... I've already picked my dress though :-)

Entry Six - On the way to the Himalayas.

This is just a short one. I'm not in the mood to write, nor relive the last few weeks.

Jack's gone.

Something took him.

Here one minute, gone the next.

I'm writing this blog on a plane to the Himalayas - order of Government.

Owen thinks it's a waste of time because Tosh hadn't picked up any Rift readings. But orders and orders and only Jack had the authority to say 'No' to White Hall. So here we are, heading to find out what's going on. Life without Jack - we just have to get on with it.

Entry Five - Weevils, Planes and Alien Eyes

Well, my affair with Owen is over, and now he's injured and recovering from a Weevil attack. I'd say it was unlucky, but he WAS stood in the Weevil's cage, practically asking for it.

But before I get to that.. I'll go back to the last time I blogged.

There were reports of murders in the city. Torchwood don't normally deal with murders but this one was different. At this one, the murderer had written Torchwood in blood on the white walls of the victims' bedroom. Then Owen found out that the murderer had Retcon, our amnesia drug, in his blood stream.

So we used the glove. Or more, I did. The Murdered victim told us the name of his murderer, and mentioned one other name.. Suzie.

So we brought her back. She was, unknown to me, taking the life from me, even though I was being rather lovely to her (despite her trying to kill me) she still would rather I die if it meant she got to live.

In the end, Jack killed her, after a long and gruelling process in which the team were locked in the Hub, and had to call my ex-collegues to get out, and Tosh destroyed the Glove forever.

A few days later, we were called to an RTA, Eugene had been killed, a guy who always used to follow us around. I was sure he used to have a thing for me, which, it turns out, he did. Still, that made me feel guilty so obviously I had to investigate the whole thing. In the end, it was a simple hit and run, but it turned out Eugene actually did have an alien artifact, which now sits in Jack's desk drawer.


Then came the plane. All sorts of things come through the rift. Sometimes it's people, sometimes it's aliens, and sometimes it's planes from 1953.

I said to Jack, once they were inside the Hub "At least it wasn't aliens". He instantly replied "Might have been easier." and I think he was right.

Although I bonded with Emma, an 18 year old from Bristol, things might have been easier. Due to her young age, Emma fitted in well and adapted easily. Right now, she's living in London. Hopefully I'll see her again. John, however, didn't take it too well and ended up committing suicide. And Diane, well, she broke Owen's heart by flying back through the Rift, leading to Owen becoming a twat over the past two weeks.

Anyway, Rhys and I fell out last night, which then lead to me and Owen falling out, in a way. We were out for a meal and.. oh you don't need to know. All you need to know is that Jack turned up. Weevils were being 'Weevil-napped' from the streets and taken to a sort of fight club.

I retconned Rhys and then told him about my affair - bad move.

Owen was sent to investigate, and that's how he ended up in the Weevil cage. By choice, apparently.

Anyway, I have to run.. Apparently Jack and Tosh have just disappeared from an old dance hall.
