A/N I have the next chapter partially written already so hopefully it will be up in the next day or so. Thanks again for all the reviews follows and favorites :)

Disclaimer: I own nothing and do this for fun.


We know what you are looking for.

Jack decided that was enough to get them started. He wanted to peak their interest without showing exactly how much he knew. "So what's step two Tosh?"

"I'm leaving you with the necessary software. When they email you back you'll hopefully be able to trace it back to the computer it was sent from. If you get enough messages we might be able to find a pattern."

"Maybe if we keep an eye on the entry logs, find out whose cards were used where?" Ianto added.

"You'll never see me turn down a good cross reference." Jack smirked. Both of his team mates rolled their eyes.

"The fact that you could make that sound dirty is mind boggling." Tosh looked at her watch "I have to get going if I'm going to catch the train back. Here are a few more coding and hacking programs you might find useful." She passed a USB stick to Ianto before giving him and Jack hugs. "And hopefully you'll be home soon." Jack put his suit jacket back on and walked her out. " You should probably try to give us a bit of notice before you two come back to the Hub though." Tosh added once Ianto was out of ear shot.

"Is it really that messy?"

"If he came back today I'm pretty sure he'd have a breakdown. They are worse than a couple of kids!" Jack laughed as they entered reception. While he was gone Ianto heard the telltale beep of an incoming email. He opened the reply to Jack's taunts.

Then you know the options: Give it to us and you will be rewarded handsomely. Refuse and you will join the others.

He ran the tracking program and found that the message had been sent from an internet cafe five blocks away. There was no way he would make it there before the sender took off. If only they had Tosh's CCTV hack. Ianto looked down at the thumb drive on the desk and hoped. Sure enough that was one of the programs she left behind. He installed it and began to work on getting access to the cameras near the cafe when he heard a voice from the doorway

"Will? Got a minute?" It was Lucy.

"Yes, of course, How can I help?" He made sure the screen was locked on his computer before gesturing for her to take Tosh's recently vacated chair.

"It's about this fundraiser idea. The board loves it, they want to hold it as soon as possible. How long do you think you'll need? Two weeks?" Ianto's heart jumped into his throat but he kept his cool. He kept reminding himself that in Lucy's eyes, he was an expert. He did this all the time.

"It's possible, as long as we have your full support." Another idea flashed in his head "And afterhours access to the lounge areas would be helpful given the advanced timeline." Lucy heartily agreed as she passed over the already signed contracts that Ianto had made up for their meeting the previous day. They discussed a few more details before she realized she was late for her next appointment. Jack entered just as she rose to leave. She promptly thanked Ianto for his help and excused herself to Jack with cold professionalism. He closed the door behind her.

"Ok that time I saw it. She really doesn't like me does she?"

"Nope, but the data pod hunters do. They've already written you back. I'm checking the CCTV footage near the cafe where the email was sent to see what we can find." Jack opened the email again and arched an eyebrow at the threat. None of the other messages had hinted at violence, just money. Whoever this was they were getting desperate. He couldn't help but prod them further.

Why is this thing worth killing for?

They didn't get any more messages that day. This left them open for their other goal of the day: to find Chris' clue. The plan was Ianto would run point from the flat, using the blueprints of the maintenance halls as a guide. Jack would search the building and report his findings.

"You'll find the door between offices 305 and 307." Ianto told him over the coms. Jack found the door and used his swipe card, which Caleb had tweaked, to open it.

"Ok I'm in. No idea what I'm looking for here but I'm looking." Jack looked at the pipes and occasional electrical boxes carefully. The hall was a stark white except for safety colouring around the different pipes and wires.

"Maybe some sort of graffiti?"

"Not in a place like this, too likely to get cleaned up. I'm guessing it's going to be a physical clue. Something he could take with him if he ever found it." Jack shone a torch into the high corners and between pipes. "Though I am tempted to put up a 'for a good time call' message just to see what would happen."

"Give out Owen's number when you do it this time. I don't feel like screening heavy breathing phone calls off the office voicemail for a month again." Jack smirked.

"Jealous Ianto?"

"No Sir, just practical. It's hard to tell the difference between a frisky lorry driver and an angry UNIT officer with bad cell service." Ianto cringed remembering the time he got it wrong.

"You just aren't trying hard enough. Remind me to-" He heard an electric zap and Jack cry out before a muffled gurgling sound hit the coms. Ianto froze.

"Jack?" He asked quietly. He asked again, louder. "JACK!" when there was still no response he grabbed his gun, medical kit and his swipe card before bolting out of the room. He had to get to him quickly, or else.
