Here Today Who: Suzie Costello, Jack Harkness Where: Cardiff Bay and then the Hub. When:The morning. Initially June 2007 (just after the scavenging trip to Torchwood One with Owen). Then current in-game timeframe (October 2008). What: Suzie is going in to work as usual, then unusual Rift activity moves her forward in time by 16 months.
Suzie drove towards Cardiff Bay, the early morning traffic was thankfully light and she parked in her usual spot, locked her car and headed towards the Hub.
She had barely taken a dozen steps when the ground beneath her feet began to shake. Alarmed, she grabbed hold of a rubbish bin, convinced that she would lose her balance if she didn't. As suddenly as it had begun, the earthquake stopped and she gave a sigh of relief, then surprised that none of the parked cars around her had triggered their alarms, she glanced back towards her own car- it was no longer there (in fact the parking area was now completely empty).
"What the hell is going on," she murmured to herself, at the same time reaching into her bag for her mobile phone- it refused to connect to the network. Sighing, she shook her head, whatever had happened, the best place to go to find out was the Hub. Speeding up she decided to use the back entrance, it was less public than the tourist office and easier to get into without being noticed.
Putting her key card into the reader, she punched in the security code, then put her hand onto the door handle, ready to open the door. Two red lights blinked stubbornly back at her. "You have got to be kidding me!" Taking out the card, she blew at it, waved it in the air, replaced it and punched in the numbers for a second time. "Damn!"
Walking up to the nearest security camera, she smiled up at it, then waved her arms in the air. "Hello, anyone in?" The camera didn't move, but it was still possible someone had seen her. She felt such an idiot! "He-llo, Jack? Tosh? Anyone? Come and let me in, please."
