In [[2007]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'') Dr Singh made a breakthrough with the sphere. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Rockery (audio story)|The Rockery]]'') Torchwood discovered firing [[particle gun]]s at the anomaly produced energy, which they believed could be the key to making Britain energy independent. A sideeffect of the experiments was the appearance of ghostly humanoid figures around the world, in what became called "[[ghost shift]]s' which were actually [[Cybusman|Cybermen]] from a [[Pete's World|parallel universe]] beginning to partially manifest themselves around Earth. ([[TV]]: ''[[Army of Ghosts (TV story)|Army of Ghosts]]'') During this time Yvonne gifted a [[Haunt]] plant to her mother [[Anne Hartman]] to give her something to motivate herself, believing it was safe. During a low moment however her mother tried to kill with weedkiller, turning the plant violent.

After weeks of ghosts shifts, an advance guard of Cybermen had passed through the breach entirely and infiltrated Torchwood One, discreetly converting three Torchwood personnel to act as their undercover agents. At this time [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]] investigated the ghost shifts and traced them to Torchwood One, arriving in the Tower in the [[The Doctor’s TARDIS|TARDIS]] to Yvonne’s delight. Inkeeping with Torchwood‘s original command from Queen Victoria, he was captured and Yvonne showed him the ghost shift technology. Though Yvonne initially disregarded his warnings, she eventually cancelled the next ghost shift but by this time it was far too late. The Cybermen used their control to force her converted employees to do it anyway, leading to the Doctor discovering their presence in the Tower. The Cybermen revealed themselves and took over the Tower, opening the breach to full and allowing millions of them to manifest across the globe. At the same time the mysterious sphere finally became active as a result of the breach opening and opened to reveal its contents; a [[Cult of Skaro|cadre]] of four [[Dalek|Daleks]].
