Cardiff

You give a small smile. Captain Jack and Martha will be thrilled to see you, especially when the Earth isn't in danger for a change. You press a few buttons on one side of the central control panel and dash around to the other side, turning an old-fashioned wheel. Two levers are yanked upwards, finishing the job.

As you look up at the glowing turquoise column, you grin wildly. The familiar wheezing of the engine begins, and you can feel yourself spinning through the Time Vortex. As you travel, you feel a bump in the vortex stream, but it doesn't really concen you. Stranger things have happened. Still, it only takes a minute or for the TARDIS to materialise in Cardiff, just in front of the tourist's helpdesk that disguises one of the entrances to Torchwood. Excellent. Although you never passed your TARDIS flying exam, you've finally managed to get the hang of appearing roughly where you want to be.

Now, you walk down the metal mesh floor of the TARDIS and open the door. It's an average day, grey cloud covering most of the sky. Nobody notices a blue police box that's bigger on the inside because of the perception filter in the circuitry. Humans don't even realise that it's there, as they're too busy with their own business to really try and look for anything unusual.

Locking the door behind you, you shove your hands into the pockets of your long, tan coat. You decided to return to wearing the brown pinstripe suit instead of the blue to keep a small memory of your time with Rose Tyler near the surface and... well, it's a more comfortable suit.

Anyway! It's time to go and find your old friends.
