Summary: The team collect another Rift victim.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A turbulent Rift storm had dropped yet another problem in Torchwood’s laps – a small and battered blue alien had been dumped unceremoniously in a field outside Cardiff.
“My name is…” It made an unpronounceable sound. “I believe the literal translation in your language would be ‘fortunate female’.”
“Fortunate?” The team stared at the mangled remains of the small being’s spacecraft.
She sighed heavily, “I suspect my progenitors were being ironic when they named me so. Fortune tends not to favour me.”
“At least you survived the crash,” said Gwen brightly.
“But now I am stuck here with no way home.”
The End

I need to know they find a way to send her home or she lives happily ever after with the team and nosy and velvet.

Date: 2012-10-02 06:09 pm (UTC)Things will improve for her and she will eventually return home, once I've explored her bad luck a bit more.
Thank you.

Date: 2012-10-03 03:43 pm (UTC)Sometimes fortune is all in how you look it, but I agree, being stranded on an alien planet is not very fortunate. At least she didn't arrive during the Victorian era where she would have have been locked up and then shot?
I hope things improve for the little blue Miss.

Date: 2012-10-03 04:37 pm (UTC)The Torchwood team are going to give her a lesson in perspective - when she leaves to go home (which she will) it will be with a whole new outlook as she comes to realise how lucky she really is! I've started to write that story, but now I seem to have several on the go and I still haven't started the next Nosy-Verse fic *brain boggles*
Thank you =)

Date: 2012-10-03 08:12 pm (UTC)Hopefully I'll concentrate on Miss Fortune at the weekend, then the handbag snippet with Rhys, then I have several to choose from. At the moment I'm trying for my second drabble of the week. I have some notes made, just got to whip it into shape, maybe tomorrow. I'm getting behind on my cross-posting!
