"Gwen, get to the Hub now! We've got some work to do!"
 Gwen smiled at this phone call from Jack, mainly because she spent the whole of yesterday wishing for something to happen and it didn't. Mind you, the flat is now the cleanest it's going to be for a while, she thought as she was getting changed into her "work clothes".

As she walked into the centre of the hub she saw that everyone was in their usual "emergency" positions; Jack and Tosh watching something on one of the many computer screens they have, Owen hovering over a dead body and probing it with some sort of medical instrument, and- She frowned. She couldn't see Ianto in his favourite stand-by position. He's probably making some of his traditional coffee for the team. If he is, I wouldn't mind a cup, she thought.
"Morning, Gwen!"
Gwen looked over to where the voice came from, acknowledging the fact that everyone had stopped what they were doing just to look at Gwen before returning back to their work. The source of the voice came from Martha Jones. Martha was one of Jack's "old friends" and was staying in Cardiff for a while, so she thought she could lend a hand.
Gwen walked over to the screen that Jack and Tosh were looking at.
"So, what's all the commotion about? Fire-breathing fish? Weevil locked itself in another toilet cubicle?" She couldn't hide the enthusiasm in her voice and hoped nobody had noticed. Tosh was the one who spoke first "Humans, actually. There have been sightings of people falling off of rooftops, at random, and landing on passing cars"
"Maybe it's a new sport? Though of course, in my day, we had rope attached to us before we jumped off of anything" Gwen let a giggle escape her mouth at Jack's response, before Toshiko turned her head to give her a disapproving look. Jack looked at Gwen and gave her one of his cheeky smiles along with a wink, before listening to Tosh again.
"And you think that, because people appear to be acting out scenes from The Happening, aliens are involved?" Inquired Gwen.
"Well, there does seem to be quite large sparks of rift activity in each of the places which have been reported. More than the usual rift blips, anyway. There are also reports coming in of that boy, William Brown, the one who Owen's examining, being killed by some sort of animal last night."
"Yeah, I was about to ask about that." Said Gwen, whilst looking over in the direction of the Autopsy room.
"The boy was found with major wounds across his body, similar to that of an attack by a weevil" Jack began. "But the problem is that it WASN'T a Weevil."
"Well, how can you tell?"
"A Weevil would eat the insides, not just leave the body there to rot."
Gwen frowned. "Isn't this just a case of a murder then? What makes these wounds so special?"
"The thing that makes these wounds so special, Miss Marple, is that the skin was eaten away," yelled Owen. "Plus, the bite marks that we could identify are nothing compared to that of a human's dental structure, nor a dog's, cat's or anything like your grandma's dentures that you always find floating in a glass of water in the bathroom. This means that, someone's either got really bad teeth or, it's alien."
"Guys," Toshiko called, allowing Jack and Gwen to focus upon the computer screen once more. "I've got a news report here of the boy that was said to be with William Brown moments before he was attacked, hold on..." She started typing and clicking until a box popped up with a picture of a teenage boy looking at them, but this wasn't the same one that was lying on Owen's table. Toshiko pressed something and he started talking to them.

"I...I...I don't know what happened. Something was chasing us, we didn't know what but we just kept running. He stopped because he was out of breath, so I stopped as well. He told me to go on but I didn't want to go, and then we heard it getting closer. He told me to go, so I did" the boy started crying "I didn't mean to! I-I…. I j-just. He wanted me to go! I didn't mean- please God, help me!" The video stopped there, with the boy looking at them with fear, regret and sadness in his face.

Gwen was so absorbed by the boy that she jumped as she heard the alarm that goes off whenever somebody enters the Hub. It was only Ianto with his shopping, but he looked as if he was deep in thought about something. Jack picked up on this straight away.
"Are you alright, Ianto?" asked Jack, whilst he folded his arms.
Ianto put the bags down next to Tosh's work station before continuing the conversation.
"Yeah, it's just something weird that happened whilst I was out… "
Jack looked at Gwen with a raised eyebrow, before signalling for Ianto to say more. "When I was driving back with the shopping, the rift activity monitor in the SUV picked up something headed towards me." Everyone was paying attention now, even Owen had put down his things and joined everyone by the computers, with Martha not far behind. "I was just about to get out of the car when a body fell onto the car and then onto the ground. I got out to see if they were still breathing."
"And were they?" asked Jack, even though it would've been impossible.
"No-"
Owen tutted, and decided to resume his work rather than to carry on listening to Ianto dribble on.
"-but as soon as I looked away, they were gone"
"How d'you mean "gone"?" Gwen chipped in.
"He was probably hallucinating, you know Ianto, he likes to blow things out of proportion all the time. Probably imagined everything" Owen received a bad look from the whole team for this remark, before apologizing to Ianto and scuttling back to his work area.
"When I say gone, I mean gone." Ianto said defiantly. "No trace of blood or anything, anywhere, except for a huge dent in the SUV where they fell... or hit."
"Did you find out who it was or remember what they looked like?" Jack was digging for more details out of Ianto.
"Whoever it was, they had no ID on them, but; he was male, around thirty-seven years of age, short and spiky brown hair, brown eyes, slim and about Jack's height."
Owen looked from his work. "Great, why don't we just put that really good information into the database and find out who decided to top themselves onto the SUV with Ianto inside?"
Ianto was about to shout something at Owen, when Tosh intervened with some news she had. "That's a good idea Owen, but I've had some ideas of my own and looked at the reports that have been sent in by people around Cardiff"
Jack looked at Owen scornfully before waiting for the information to come from Toshiko.
"There have been eight reports of people falling off of buildings and landing onto cars within the past week, but if you look into it further you notice one thing". She swivelled round in her chair and smiled as if she was a genius, which she is.
"What one thing do you notice?" Jack folded his arms, whilst trying piecing it together in his head before Tosh could say anything.
"The one thing that you notice is that the same two people are ALWAYS found next to the bodies and then disappear, like Ianto told us, when the witnesses had their backs turned. Look!" She brought up multiple images of various incidents and pointed to the two girls who seemed to appear in every photo.
"How is that even possible? Two girls and eight incidents in one week?! That's like they've fallen at least four times and that's just sickening!" Gwen was trying to make sense of it, but no matter how hard she tried she couldn't and it was bothering her.
"They could be clones or something"
This was the first comment Owen had made that wasn't offensive to anyone, that day, and Martha, who hadn't spoken through the entire conversation, decided to chip in at this point.
"No, they couldn't, because if they were just clones, why would somebody take them when people weren't looking? You'd just produce more, wouldn't you?"
"That's a good point-", Jack nodded, "-but I don't believe that they're clones. Perhaps they're dead bodies being re-used." He shrugged.
"There is one other way." Everyone focused on Ianto again. "They could be like Jack. I mean the not-dying thing"
The team looked at Ianto, then to Jack until he took a deep breath and spoke.
"I think Martha raised a good point; why would people take the bodies? What are they being used for? And why are these people being killed in the first place?" Jack used this as an escape route from Ianto's definition of what's happening. "Okay, Gwen, you go with Martha to the site where that boy was found and try to find more clues on who or what attacked him. Tosh, try and get a focus on the next blip that shows up and send the coordinates immediately to me. Ianto, you're with me on this one and hopefully find we'll something or someone!"
Jack sounded a bit hopeful at this last bit as he loves having a bit of an argument, even though he doesn't like to admit it.
