Heading home from work, she wrapped her jacket tighter around her shoulders. It was getting colder outside, and her dimension cannon was coming along- slowly but surely. She looked up at the sky. The sun was setting. She told her mother that she'd be home before sunset for once today... a little after sunset is still better than the odd hours she had been keeping, practically living at Torchwood.
With a sigh, she covered her head and took the back streets- this way people wouldn't stop her. It didn't help that her dad was famous in this world when sometimes all she wanted was peace and quiet. She took the alleys and back streets for another reason too. There was always the hope that he would come back before she made it there. Knowing him, the Doctor, he would most likely land in some obscure spot around these places, and she would be there to greet him with open arms.
It was colder still, and clouds were starting to cover the sky as light droplets of rain began to fall. She turned another corner and took a breath. Holding out to see a blue police box around every other corner wasn't very healthy- even her family would point that out if they knew that was the real reason she took this route.
