Jack watched as the creature shifted into the space in front and around them. Huge and spanning across pretty much all the space he could see in the dim light.

"Ever feel like you're being watched?" Jack mumbled to the Doctor, glancing sideways at him.

He listened again to the translation, and nodded to the creature in eager acknowledgement.

"Right," he said, "but we can help you. Find somewhere else for you. Somewhere that's empty. But you have to leave here. Help us and we'll help you. We know you didn't mean to hurt anything."

He looked again to the Doctor, questioning, "Gift?" But then he realised. "Right, the regeneration?"

Again he looked at the creature, picking a set of eyes to concentrate on.

"So you can see what I'm thinking? So you can see that this is my world. My homeworld. And if you carry on, it'll be lost, just like yours."
