Challenge: 350 - Unloved Characters
Notes: Jack has to say another painful goodbye

Despite having agreed to it in some sense, Jack's stomach now roiled in protest.

He wanted to undo the decision.

Instead, he inhaled deeply and made his way over to the car.

'Do you have everything you need?'

'Yes,' she replied.

'Documents?'

'Torchwood sorted everything, new passports, licence, bank accounts.'

'I'll send you money.'

'Dont worry, Torchwood's sorted that too.'

'Daddy!' the little girl cried.

'Hey sunshine! Daddy's gotta stay here and take care of some things. I'll see you in a little bit.'

Lucia met his eyes, and he knew he wouldn't see her for a very long time.

*Wibble*. Poor Jack.
At least he did catch up with Alice again later.... only to have circumstances beyond his control rip her from him again....

Yeah, I would have loved to see this whole segment of Jack and Torchwood's history done in much more detail on the show, but like so many things in canon, we were denied it. Sigh.

*hugs Jack* By the time he finds his daughter again she'll be all grown up and resenting him. It's so unfair.
