"Have you seen a blowfish driving a sports car?" Gwen asked the old lady on the side of the road. The woman pointed down the road, clearly confused. I would be too if this wasn't a normal thing for us.

"Thank you" Gwen said, rolling up the window and we drove off.

We were following this fish face dude. An ugly bugger if you ask me.

I sat in the passenger seat with Owen driving. Gwen, Tosh and Ianto were at the back, talking about some scientific stuff.

Gwen was now dubbed the leader of our group. I was now second in command, I felt quite chuffed with myself having landed such a position.

"All I'm saying is, you are speeding and there are children." I said to Owen.

"Well, if kids are out midnight, they've got it coming." Owen replied and I roll my eyes.

"Who's afraid of the big scary fish, then?" I tease Owen.

"The big fish with a gun!" Owen yells back over Tosh and Ianto's ranting at the back.

"Do we need special weapons?" Ianto asked from the back and I turned to look at them in the back.

"What are we ganna do once we catch him?" I ask and look at Tosh.

"Jack would know" Tosh replies, as Ianto refills his gun.

"Careful with that in the car, buddy." I whisper to him as I peer over my seat at him.

"Will do." He gave me a small smile.

"Yeah, well, Jack's not here, is he?" Owen pointed out and I turned back to him. "Jack's disappeared. Fat lot of good help Jack is." Owen said, causing the car to fall silent.

I kind of felt the same as Owen did about Jack leaving. I was angry at him for leaving us now, but I also thought 'he wouldn't leave us if it weren't urgent, right?'…he'll come back…I hope.

"Blowfish!" Gwen shouted, breaking the silence.

"Hold On!" Owen pushed down on the pedal harder and we sped off towards it.

"Speed limits do exist, Owen." I warned him.

"Yeah, well, not for him, do they?" He stated and sharply turned a corner.

I got out my gun and reloaded it. I'm ready for this, I told myself. We don't need Jack, we've been doing fine with out him. I smile to myself, trying to reassure myself.

"Take the wheel!" Owen demanded.

"Owen, what are you doing?" I ask him as he rolls down his window and starts to push himself onto the ledge of the window.

"Take the bloody wheel!" he shouted back.

"Okay, okay, okay." I quickly grab the wheel and stir the car. This is harder than it looks, I thought to myself as I tried to keep the car going straight from the passenger seat.

Owen shot twice before hitting the wheel of the sports car with the third shot.

"Nice aim." I comment, as Owen pulls himself back into the car and I look at the car spiral in front of us.

"I'd like to see you give it a try." Owen retorted and I gave him a death glare.

"Stop fighting, you two!" Gwen shouted at us and we quickly kept quiet. We quickly jump out the car as Owen stopped the car.

"Where is it? Where's it gone?" Gwen shouts and I notice Fish-Face isn't in the car anymore. We all look around, guns at the ready.

*Bang* Bang*

"Go, go, go!" Owen shouts and we all run into the house the gunshots came from. Once we are in the house I see a man lying on the ground, bleeding, Fish-Face with a gun to the head of a girl and a lady behind a wall.

"Gwen, go left. Tosh, go right. Ianto, take centre. Emily, with me!" Owen shouts the orders and I run to the man lying on the floor and start applying pressure to the wound. "Positions!" Owen runs over to me and the man.

"Hold on. Hold on." I say to the man.

"Massive levels of adrenaline mixed with approximately 3 grams of cocaine." Tosh reads off her scanners. "This fish is wired."

"So this is Team Torchwood." Fish-Face exclaims. "The teacher's pets, but teachers gone, hasn't he? Leaving the kiddie kids all alone. And look at you trying so hard to be grown up."

Fish-Face looks at Owen "The doctor, with his hands full of blood." He looks at Gwen, who is holding the woman behind the wall. "The carer, with her oh-so-beating heart." He looks at Tosh. "The technician, with her cold devices."

That's when I start to wonder…what am I in the group?

"The office boy, promoted beyond his measure." He looked at Ianto. "Which leaves me with the pretty face, thinks she's so tough but really she couldn't hurt anything even if she tried." He stared at me.

"Wanna bet?" I say. I stand up and crack my gun, aiming it at his head.

"All of you, lost without your master. All of you, pretending to be so brave." He carried on his ranting and raving, ignoring me. "All of you, so scared." He laughed.

"You're the one who should be scared." I say, stepping closer to him and he tightens his grip on the girl's throat and I stop.

"So what about it, minions? Can you do it?" he challenges us and I see everyone tighten their grip on their guns. "How good are you? How sharp is your aim?"

"What if you kill her?" that's why I hadn't already shot his fucking fish face in, because of the girl. "What if I kill her first?"

My hands start to shake and I try to gather myself. Come on. Just aim, I said to myself. Oh god!

"Can you shoot before I do? Can you?"

"Just shut the fuck up!" I shout my anger getting the better of me.

"Oh, the pretty one has a back bone." He stated and pressed the gun deeper into the girl's hair. "Come on then, shoot me?" He spun around, so the girl was at his other side now. "You can't, can you? Too worried you're going to hit her?" I tighten my grip, turning be knuckles white. "I dare you" with that I started to press down on the trigger.

*bang*

What?! I didn't shoot?! What?!

I look at my gun. What? I don't understand. Did I press that hard?

I turn around.

Jack.

I don't know if I'm happy, sad, angry or relived at the moment, so I just swallow it all down. I wanted to run up to him and kiss him, but at the same time I wanted to knock all his teeth out.

"Hey, kids, did you miss me?" Jack asked, putting down his gun. We all just stare at him in shock.
