Chapter 1

In her room at the Tyler Mansion Rose is packing a suitcase when Jackie comes in.

"Hi mum"

"Rose, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Mum, we've talked about this"

"I know, but you're my daughter, I want to be sure you're doing the right thing"

"I am, I have to find him, you know why"

"I do"

After a slight silence between the mother and daughter Jackie takes the top Rose was folding from her hands, saying "Oh give that here, you never could fold properly"

"Oi"

The two women laugh and carry on packing.

An hour or so later, Rose, Jackie, Pete, Jake, Tony and a 4 year old girl are stood in a room in Torchwood, saying goodbye.

"I'll miss you Rose, you've been a good friend, and if you see Mickey, give him this from me"

Jake then hands Rose a £10 note and she looks quizzically at the note then back at him before he answers her unasked question "Man City won the cup"

"You two and your bets and Jake"

"Yeah"

"Thanks for what you said"

Rose then moves to stand in front of her (Parallel) dad. "You Rose Tyler have been the best daughter anyone could have asked for, your mother did a good job raising you" he proclaimed.

"That she did"

At that point Rose notices that Jackie has started crying so she gives her mum a hug and says "Don't cry mum, I'm, gonna be fine, I promise"

"I know, I know, It's just, I'll never see you again, my beautiful baby girl"

"Well I'm certainly not gonna miss you"

"Tony Tyler" scolds Jackie

"I'm kidding mum, I will miss you Rose and I won't forget you either"

"Good, I should hope not, now am I gonna get a hug from my little brother, or am I going to have to force him"

After a brief moment of hesitation Tony hugs his big sister goodbye.

"Now missy, are you gonna say goodbye to Grandma, Grandad, Uncle Tony and Uncle Jake?" Rose asks her 4 year old daughter Sarah Jane.

"Bye bye"

"Sarah Jane, can you promise me something please?"

"What gwandma"

"Will you look after your mummy for me?"

"Yes"

"Good girl"

"Right then, I guess we're ready, come on honey"

Rose and Sarah Jane then step back a little bit onto a very large disc on the floor before Rose says "Jake, activate the Cannon"

"You got it, activating Dimension Cannon" says Jake before pressing a few buttons and seconds later Rose and her daughter disappear.
