Chapter Six

"Oh god no," said Jenny as she laughed. "Do you really think I would have had you do that if you were my grandfather?"

Rory stammered out, "I hope you wouldn't." Then he paused. He looked at the beautiful young woman standing in his living room. She had such an upbeat attitude, but he could see something in her eyes. Behind the mask of this time traveler was a lost little girl who wanted to get home. Rory began to walk across the room to his black leather couch. He sat down and looked back at Jenny before saying, "Why don't you take a seat? I think we're going to have a lot of planning to do."

Jenny gracefully walked over to Rory and sat down. She looked him in the eyes and said, "Yes we do soldier."

The two of them sat and discussed their plans to find the last time lord, Jenny's father, for hours. The two of them brainstormed, argued and revised their plans the entire time. There seemed to be no options for the two travelers. Jenny's Vortex manipulator could only transport one person and even if it could take both of them they still had no idea where or when the Doctor even was.

"Jenny," Rory interrupted as she was about to start on planning another extremely dangerous plan, "I think I know how we can find your Dad and where to get a second manipulator all in one shot."

"How?" Jenny asked.

"Well," Rory began to speak a bit shakily, "I know a man who I promised myself I would never see again. I think we have to contact Torchwood."

"Torchwood?" Jenny said. Then she gasped and said, "You don't mean THE TORCHWOOD, the Captain Jack Harkness Torchwood?"

"That's the one," said Rory.

"I can't believe we have to deal with the intergalactic man whore himself," responded Jenny with a clear sense of disdain.

"Well I don't know about him being a man whore, but I really don't want to deal with him anymore than you do," said Rory. He then leaned back and stared at the ceiling. He mumbled, "Ifdarewaanydotherway," as he began to yawn.

Jenny looked at Rory and for the first time she saw not just a person who could help her find her father, but a man who was broken. She had known that somehow her father was involved with the death of this man's wife and somehow the loss of his daughter. She realized that this man who had lost so much because of her father was still willing to help her, he wasn't broken to her. Well at least not broken beyond repair.

Jenny cleared her mind and said, "Come on I think it's time you get some sleep. We'll finish planning in the morning."

Rory looked at her and stifled another yawn and said, "There's a guest bedroom down on the left if you want to use it."

"Thank you, now get some sleep. You're going to need it tomorrow soldier." Jenny said. She took one last look at him before walking off toward the guest bedroom and thought to herself, "I think he needs this." Jenny then took a step back and gave the lonely centurion a kiss on his cheek before walking off to the guest bedroom leaving Rory alone in his living room.


Author's Note:

Well people this chapter is very long overdue and I hope it will hold you over until well I write another chapter of either of my ongoing stories. I hope you all enjoyed the story "All I've Seen Has Changed My Mind" that I wrote not to long ago. That story originally began as this chapter from the doctors point of view and then became very very different. Just a heads up – I intend to write a sequel or two to that story featuring the "reborn meta-10 doctor" and possibly even a crossover featuring him. (and yes he is a different character, read the story. You'll see.) Anyway I've been rambling but I had posted "All I've…" as a downloadable ebook on my profile but the FBI has shut down megaupload. I'll repost and relink it later or something.

Also Last Sentence - did you see what I did there?
