Note: This is just a quick little story whilst I am still thinking of ideas for 'The Twins'... Any ideas are welcome for that story. Might help speed along the process of updating it... Please R&R... Love you all

17:50 HOURS

Captain Jack Harkness looked down on his team and thought about what the last 24 hours had done to them. Gwen - shot; Tosh - kidnapped; Owen - also kidnapped and Ianto - poor Ianto. Beaten to a pulp by the Harvest. Jack couldn't look at his youngest recruit without his heart breaking. Ianto Jones had been through so much in such a short space of time that it was starting to pay its price on the young archivist.

"Guy's it's time you should be going. See you - " Jack couldn't finish his sentence before alarm bells began to sound around the Hub. "Tosh. What is going on?"

"We are going into lockdown. No idea how but we are."

"How long for?" Owen asked.

"Erm… 1 day."

"You what?! That's just fucking fantastic that is." Owen shouted.

"Owen calm down. There is nothing we can do about it."

"You can bloody try though. We do have lives outside this place." Owen pleaded. Jack just shook his head. "Well thanks a lot whoever did this. Thanks a fucking lot!" Owen stormed off to the autopsy bay. Jack scanned his eyes around the Hub to make sure everything was in order.

"Where's Ianto?" he asked.

"Don't know. Don't care!" Owen's voice came from the autopsy bay.

"Owen give the lad a break. He's been through a hell of a lot these past few weeks." Gwen shouted back.

"Oh yeah like nearly getting us killed."

"Well unlike you we have forgiven him for that. Think about how you felt when you lost Katie." Jack began. Owen appeared at the entrance to the autopsy bay. "We need to stick together. Including you." Owen sighed. "Tosh can you trace him?"

"Just doing it now." A few taps later and Tosh had the CCTV on screen. "Shit! He's down in the basement. And he doesn't look in a good way."

"Owen come with me. NOW!" Jack and Owen rushed down to the basement. When they got there they saw Ianto laying on the floor unconscious. Jack sat down beside him and took him in his arms.

"Owen. What's happened?"

"Well apart from his external injuries he got whilst in the Beacons, he's suffered a blow to the head and 3 cracked knuckles."

"Shit! Is he going to be ok?"

"The bastards got off lucky. But he triggered the lockdown Jack."

"How?"

"He's obviously fallen against the emergency lockdown trigger before he collapsed." Jack brushed a hand over Ianto's bruised face. "If we can get him to the autopsy bay Jack I can help him."
