OMG! I'm soooo sorry for the long wait! It's GCSE year *groans* Not liking my Health and Social Teacher! I swear she Eats the coursework?!? O.o
Anyways! On with the story...
Jack was sitting alone in his office with Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade playing softly in the background. He had just shut his eyes when he heard the alarm that signalled that someone was entering the new Hub. Jack smiled. He knew exactly who it was. He listened to the whispered conversation taking place below him
"Ooh! It's all posh isn't it?"
"It is"
"I must say that Jack's interior design skills have definitely improved since we were little" the sound of laughter filled the main room of the hub
"Oh remember that lamp..."
"And that table..."
"Ladies!" interrupted Jack from the balcony high above them "Glad you could make it"
"Lizzie won't be too long, she's messing about with that bloody laptop again" Jack laughed
"She's doing a job for me Brenda"
"Oh I thought you'd have something to with it" Brenda joked while Jack faked a hurt look
"Now now children" mock-scalded Joyce waggling her forefinger at Jack and Brenda who just smiled
"I see you've managed to keep that door" said Joyce who gestured to the cog door behind her.
"Got to keep the door" replied Jack. As if on cue, the light above the cog door started to flash and the alarm sounded. Jack, Brenda and Joyce turned to look at the door as it slid back to reveal Lizzie who was standing there with a laptop and a bundle of wires in her arms
"Did you do it?" asked Jack
"It's me! Of course I did it! Uncle Jack" replied Lizzie as she handed her godfather the laptop
Jack sighed "Thank you" a loud pinging noise filled the Hub
"Excuse me ladies" said Jack as he moved towards the stairs "I seem to have an email" as Jack put his foot on the first step the phone started ringing and Lizzie's laptop buzzed
"Casey's court" commented Joyce
"The email can wait" said Jack as he answered the phone "Jack Harkness"
"Jack? It's Martha"
"Hey Martha what can I do for you?"
"Something weird is going on Jack" Martha stated
"What do you mean?" asked Jack
"Uncle Jack..." Interrupted Lizzy
"Hold on" replied Jack
"I've had an email of Owen!" Lizzie and Martha said in unison
"What?" asked Jack in a state of disbelief
"Check your emails Jack" said Martha over the phone as Jack climbed the stairs towards his office. A few moments later, Jack re-appeared
"Make yourselves at home ladies, I won't be long" Jack said as he pulled on his greatcoat and headed towards the door gesturing for Lizzie to follow him
"What shall I say to Martha?" Called Joyce
"Tell her to get a move on down here"
As Jack drove, Lizzie traced the signal to where the email originated from
"Right" shouted Lizzie and held onto the door handle as Jack made the turn just in time
"Where now?" asked Jack
"Third warehouse on the left" replied Lizzie. Jack slammed on the breaks and came to a graceful stop (well, as graceful as you can get in a speeding SUV) in front of the old sewerage plant. Jack handed Lizzie a small stun gun
"A stun gun?"
"What?" stated Jack innocently
"I know how to use a gun you know, you taught me"
"Your not old enough to fire a gun outside the firing range, it'll be illegal"
"Illegal? Since when did you care for the law?" Jack shot her a look "You broke about 3 international traffic laws on the way here" Jack rolled his eyes. Lizzie stuck out her bottom lip a fraction and looked at her godfather with puppy-dog eyes, Jack sighed and finally gave in handing her a standard Torchwood hand gun. Lizzie gave a huge grin in response.
"Lets go" said Jack "Do NOT shoot anything unless your life is in danger" The warning tone in his voice made sure the message got through. As the pair advanced on the warehouse, Jack's mobile phone rang
"Are we ever going to find the source of these emails?" asked Jack to no-one in particular, before flipping open his phone
"Martha Jones! What can I do for you?" as he listened to Martha, Jack's facial expressions changed from a look of glee to disbelief
"Err, right, err, yes, okay... Yes! Thank you!" said Jack as he hung up the phone, a huge grin plastered on his face
"Lets do this"
