This is the first story I have written since the link for Torchwood fics because available but it is my second Torchwood fic. The idea came from a chat with a friend of mine, when we made some intersting connections between Doctor Who and Torchwood that I dont think the writers ever considered. We decided that the best place for the Doctor to hide from Torchwood would be in Torchwood itsself. we also noted just how clever Ianto Jones is and how we never get to find out his story.
The Summery: Ianto Jones is hiding more then just a cyberman in Torchwood. How will Jack react to the discovery of this new secret from a man who knows him better then he knows himself. (note: spoilers for all of Torchwood and refrences to the last episodes of the lastest Doctor Who series (which I haven seen by the way.) but probably not in this chapter.)
Disclaimer: I don't own Torchwood, I don't own Doctor Who and if i see the BBC using this idea i will be quiet shocked. anyway, who would believe me if i said I own Torchwood? Im 16 for goodness sake.

Torchwood was unusually quiet. Gwen and Owen had disappeared shortly after arriving, probably off at the shooting range, practicing what ever it was that they practiced when they were alone. It wasnt shooting, thats for sure. Jack smiled to himself at this. He remembered the joys of new relationships. Hell, he was in one right now. He looked out over the quiet hub. Below him, Toshiko was working on some sort of translation. Jack watched quietly as Ianto walked over to her and said something. Tosh turned from her work and replied to him. Ianto turned away, smiling. Jack couldn't help feeling jealous about this. He never got those sorts of smiles from Ianto. Slowly, he turned and walked into his office, shutting the door quietly behind him. Then he turned to the phone on his desk.
"Ring damn you!" he shouted "why wont you just bloody ring?"
He stopped, feeling embarrassed. No one below had heard his shouts. He sighed, glad for once that his office was sound proof. It was something he wasn't often glad about, especially when he wanted Ianto to get him a coffee but didn't want to finish what ever he happened to be doing at that point. Sometimes with Ianto. Jack smiled softly and slowly fell back into his chair, covering his face with his hands. The phone rang. Jack snatched it up and put it to his ear.
"Prime minister?" he said.
"Jack, it's me" said Tosh. "You've locked yourself in your office again"
Jack glared at the door. Tosh was standing outside, her phone to her ear.
"Hang on" he said before throwing down the phone and pushing himself out of the chair. He pulled the door open as Tosh terminated the call.
"What is it?" Jack asked, trying not to snap at her. It didn't work.
"We just received a report of a strange ship appearing about 50kms outside Cardiff" Tosh said, looking a little hurt.
"So? Send Owen and Gwen to deal with it" he replied.
"I can't reach them on their phones and I really don't want to go and look for them" Toshiko replied.
Jack hesitated.
"Ok. Take Ianto and check out this ship. I'll stay here and wait for Gwen and Owen" he said.
Tosh nodded and walked out of the office. Below, Jack saw her say something to Ianto. They both picked up their coats and walked out of the hub. Jack sat back down at his desk and continued to wait.

Toshiko sat in the SUV, watching the countryside fly by. She winched slightly as a bright light hit her face. Ianto's watch was catching the sunlight in the most annoying way. She winched again.
"Ianto, could you please take your watch off?" she asked.
Ianto shook his head but didn't take his eyes off the road.
"Sorry Tosh, not while I'm driving" he replied.
Tosh sighed and glared at the clock on the cars radio. Then she glared at Ianto's watch.
"Why do you wear that thing?" she asked. "It doesn't even show the right time"
Ianto shrugged.
"I've had it for a long time now." he replied. "It's kind of special to me"
"Is it a family heirloom?" Tosh questioned.
"Something like that. Hang on"
Ianto steered the SUV towards a group of parked cars around a tent.
"There" he said, parking the car. "Do you want your jacket Tosh? It looks cold out there"
Toshiko nodded. Ianto reached to the back seat and handed Tosh her leather jacket. Then he reached over again and pulled a long black over coat out. Tosh started at it as he got out of the car. The black coat was so long that it almost touched the ground but it looked good with Ianto's black suit.
"Are you coming Tosh?" Ianto asked.
Tosh blinked a few times before jumping out of the car and following Ianto towards the tent. At the entrance they were stopped by two forensic investigators. Toshiko couldn't help but shiver. The investigators were dressed completely in white with no skin showing. There thick black safety glasses were impossible to see through. Ianto didn't seem worried by them and pulled out his ID.
"Special ops." he said "Torchwood"
The investigators looked at Ianto before turning to stare at Toshiko. Tosh felt herself shiver again and tried not to meet the eyeless gaze. Slowly, one of the investigators nodded. Tosh followed Ianto into the tent. It was full of investigators, all dressed the same. They all just stood there, looking at the new comers. In the middle of the tent, was something covered in a white sheet. Tosh walked over to it and bent down to pull the sheet up but stopped. On the floor next to her foot, was a fire iron. It had been bent into a right angle. Toshiko looked over to Ianto, who was circling the object, staring at the silent investigators. He caught her gaze and gave her a small shrug. Carefully, Tosh picked up the fire iron and pulled aside the sheet. Underneath it was an un-contuse woman. She had been gagged and her hands tied behind her back. Tosh gave Ianto a look of horror. Ianto looked back at her for a moment before turning away. With incredible speed, Ianto reached over to the nearest investigator and pulled its dark glasses off. Then he started backing away, dropping the glasses on the floor. Tosh felt her heart jump. Under the glasses were eyes she had never seen before on a human. They looked like the eyes of a fly. All the figures started moving towards Tosh and Ianto, circling them. Then Toshiko realized. They were trapped in a tent with one un-contuse sub- terrestrial and a lot of hostile extra-terrestrials. Tosh gripped the fire iron and ran at the nearest figure. Then her personal universe switched off. The last thing she heard was Ianto shout at her.
"Tosh! NO!"

To Be Continued.
I can promise you that at least. I may not be that good at finishing work but this one is going to be completed. I promise you that. i've got several friends on my back to finish it. Anyway, it was fun to write so I dont really care if no one likes it although reviews would be nice.
