Articles Alien Youth Serum by Sharon Robertson Case File #1




Well it’s the 1890's just before Her Majesty Queen Victoria retires from public life for the last time so that others may take over the Royal duties for the kingdom. Back then the organization of Torchwood that her majesty had set up was hidden beneath the National Museum long before it became situated at Canary Wharf. But the Cardiff hub was itself already in place and its head, one Captain Jack Harkness, that's me by the way, was right there when the trouble ensued.

Her Majesty was arriving for a tour of inspection and was also there to make a decision on whether the organization itself would continue or be disbanded and closed for all time and everyone was determined to make sure that she would be impressed enough to let things continue as they are, that things wouldn't go wrong.

Well we all know how that turned out now don't we?

Just before her arrival we were in the middle of conducting an inspection of an alien sarcophagi with occupant for the files when Her Majesty arrived to conduct her inspection. That's when things started to go wrong almost immediately. While I, Captain Harkness was entertaining Her Majesty, Archie, head of this section of Torchwood was attacked by the occupant of the sarcophagi. Believing the alien dead little security precautions had been taken during its study. Unfortunately, the creature was still alive and sucked most of the life out of Archie before escaping into London.

From Torchwood base to Hyde park to the slums of the city and the underground train system Her Majesty along with myself went on the hunt for the creature. The alien though it would never be identified at the end, as it would die at the hands of the elderly people in the underground, at Her Majesty's request, was supposed to provide some unknown person with eternal youth, when it would be used to suck out the life of the young and fit and bestow it upon the unknown person. The creature would not suck the life from the old infirm or elderly which Her Majesty came to realise was the key to killing it.

After the successful completion of this adventure I, Captain Jack Harkness returned to Cardiff, and Her Majesty returned to the palace and retired from public life.

Torchwood continues to this day to protect humanity and Earth from alien incursion. The populace forgot all about the alien due to a multitude of rumours and the sarcophagi was stored in the Torchwood archives.
