It's a tad long it really should be two chapters but of late i've had a few extra ppl adding story alerts so i thought i'd work harder for some comments or maybe even some fav stories lists!!!
They walked down the corridor a guard on either side,
"What are we going to do now?" Ianto whispered to Louise.
"Don't worry we'll get out of this, I promise." He looked at her she smiled encouragingly. They came to a large room with what looked like drain covers all over the floor. They where walked over to the far corner the woman next to them slid back the cover showing a small cell with enough room for about 1 person to lie down in it was about 3 people deep.
"Get in." Ianto and Louise looked at her as if she was mad.
"I don't think so." Ianto shook his head; the guards on either side cocked their guns menacingly.
"Or maybe I think so, get in Ianto. Take your Jacket off its going be warm!" she took her coat off throwing it in before Ianto did the same, then he climbed in dropping down and laying on the floor of the metal cell, the woman smirked evilly as Louise did the same thing, carefully avoiding standing on Ianto, she moved over him, supporting herself up of her arms.
"Be grateful there isn't 3 of you!" her tone was harsh; "We won't be back, unless you prove to be of use, which you won't so here." She threw in the Lieutenants and Ianto's previously confiscated weapons into the cell "I'm sure you'll have more use for these than I will, better you kill yourselves that you waiting for us to do it!" she closed the lid over them then slid a vent across, allowing 8 small dots of light in to the metal cell. Then a small light flicked on above Ianto's head, a soft dull light, it lit the room perfectly. Louise carefully moved the weapons to the top of the cell.
"What are we going to do now?"
"I don't know give me a minute." She slid a little higher up the cell examining the end panel of the space they were in. "Ianto I don't know if I can get us out, I assumed, stupidly that these cells would have been human built and I'm not sure if they are." She looked down at him her eyes wide in terror. She shifted back carefully Ianto placed his hand on her thigh making her look back into his eyes.
"It's alright, I trust you. You can do this and it's not your fault we're in this mess." He rubbed his hand up and down on her leg comforting her. She smiled at him, even though he was acting cool and calm she knew he was terrified.
"I have an idea. Just don't move and sorry in advance." She carefully shifted to kneel over him leaning back to reach her boot, pulling out her sonic screwdriver.
"I thought they took that!" Ianto smiled.
"I carry a spare!" she leant forward kneeling over him. Ianto didn't quite know what to do, feeling slightly uncomfortable at the closeness he was sharing with Louise yet slightly soothed by it. He then realised his hands where still on her thighs. He didn't dare move he tilted his head up to look at her face which was just out of his range of vision. She was running the screwdriver around the edge of the cell. Louise concentrated hard on what she was doing; she had to get Ianto out of her head she had a bad feeling about this place.
Acutely aware of his hands on her thighs she kept working at trying to loosen the panel. She paused when it didn't move, Ianto sensing her stress started to move his thumbs in circles. She carried on working changing the setting of the screwdriver. The panel creaked slightly, she stopped giving it a small push it creaked again, Ianto's hands tightened a fraction she smiled slightly and set the level on the screwdriver higher again, running it over the metal again, listening for the creaking.
Ianto's hands had moved a little higher up her thighs, she didn't mind she didn't know how long they had been in the cell but it was getting very warm, running the screwdriver over the metal again one side shifted slightly completely lose from the other side of the cell. Ianto's hands where still there she had started to notice them more and more. It wasn't that she disliked it, it was the distraction, in some ways she needed it but it was starting to take her concentration away from the job in hand!
"Ianto?" his hands froze. She looked down at him. "As much as I'm enjoying your very skilful hands keeping me calm, please don't move your hands any higher because I fear my concentration will turn to you and not to getting us out of here." She smiled and he relaxed again.
"Yes, sorry." She smiled and shook her head.
"Don't be." She ran the screwdriver over the last bit of the join. "Right don't move for a minute." She managed to turn herself round in the cell and kick the edge of the tightly fitting panel it shifted over and loosened enough for her to be able to move it with her hands. Lying back over Ianto, she holstered her gun and he did the same.
"Right, you go out first I'll follow because then I can sort of re-attach the panel." They started to roll in the cell, so Louise's back was against the metal floor. Ianto pulled his Jacket back on and was about to move when they heard footsteps above them and voices. Louise reached up grabbing the panel and pulling it back into place, running the screwdriver over it to hold it in place. She shoved the screwdriver into Ianto's pocket as the lid above them opened. She could here Ianto's heart beating fast. One of the guards looked in, turned and called.
"No still not dead." Then he closed the hatch with a bang. Ianto exhaled. Before the latch had fully slid across Louise grabbed the screwdriver out of Ianto's pocket and reopened the cell with one hand she reached up and pushed it out of the way creating an opening into the venting system. She smiled up at Ianto.
"After you Mr Jones." She said her right arm still above her head from fighting with the panel. Before she could say anything else, he kissed her passionately and she kissed him back, her arm sliding round his neck. Then he pulled back.
"As Jack would say, we'll finish that later!" He smiled and looked down the passage way, before starting to crawl carefully over her. She licked her lips rolling over onto her stomach as he passed the panel and followed him out, stopping to put the panel back in place securing it again. She had to admit she was glad Ianto was becoming her partner, she felt bad about Jack but she couldn't help destiny.
TWTWTW
"We've got to get in there and get them." Gwen said to Jack.
"No they'll be fine." he tapped is ear activating the coms.
"Miles. I really need that map." Just then his handheld beeped as the file came through. "Miles?" Jack hadn't got a reply on the coms. "Miles are you there?" Gwen looked at Jack.
"Sam?" she said. There was no reply.
"Why does the fact there isn't a reply worry me?" just then his mobile started to ring.
"Hello?"
"Jack its Ianto."
"What? What was wrong with your mobile?"
"It was taken off of me. Look can you got through to Miles he's in danger its Sam, she's taking us down from the inside, they want Louise."
"What?"
"The people here wanted to harvest her regeneration energy. They caught us but we got out, we're in the main office right at the centre of the building, Louise is hacking into their security systems she'll disable it then she'll shut it down from the inside.
"Right just make sure you two get out, don't worry about Miles, he's a big boy he can look after himself."
"Just so you know Jack it's that unit woman, she's had her own agenda all along."
"Thanks Ianto just get out safely."
"We will we're just going to see what's going on here."
Louise typed away at the computer; Ianto put the phone down and looked over at her working quickly. He turned back to cover the door with his gun.
"You know what I love about this job?" Louise asked him as she worked.
"No what?" he asked with a smile.
"Other than the job it's self and the people. I love times like these when you can show up the people who think they are better that you and it just shows them we are the best." He smiled.
"Your right it does feel good."
"Especially people like these."
"What do you mean?" he turned to look at the screen, Louise had hacked the CCTV system and the sight in front of him made him feel sick. It was just like the Pharm but worse. Weevils and other aliens all laid out on autopsy tables, sick experiments stand to their side. The screen flicked to an area crammed with aliens.
"It's like an intensive farm." Ianto whispered. He walked over to look at the screen fully, standing behind Louise.
"I think that's exactly what it is. This is wrong, I know we keep weevils locked up but we look after them, we don't do this to them." Louise flicked to another screen, it was a corridor the woman was walking along it she opened a side door and disappeared out of view. Louise tapped the image on again, just an empty corridor. "Where did she go?" she flicked around the images but couldn't find the woman. "Where ever she went there's not a camera in that room." She looked over at Ianto and smiled. "You want to go check it out?" he smiled and nodded. She stood up pulling her gun off of her hip holster and headed towards the door. It wasn't far to the corridor they moved carefully along, meeting no one else they got to the door they went on either side of it.
"If they have CCTV monitors won't they be able to see us?"
"No I froze the images on the system." Ianto smiled at her.
"That's brilliant." She put her hand on the door hand and looked at him meaning fully. He readied himself and she flung the door open and moved inside.
The room inside was an office, two doors lead off of it there was a very startled young man sat at the desk Louise quickly crossed the room before he could react and pulled him over the desk, putting her hand over his mouth to muffle any cries. She whispered to him.
"No if I take my hand from your mouth are you going to cry out?" he shook his head. "Because if you do my colleague will shoot you, you understand?" he nodded quickly. She started to move her hand away from his mouth. He stayed perfectly silent.
"What's through those doors?"
"One leads to the private labs, no one goes down there. The other goes to Melissa's office."
"I knew she'd have a name like Melissa." Ianto muttered.
"Which one?" Louise asked. The guy pointed. "Thanks."
"One more thing," Ianto stepped forward, "do you know what they're doing here?"
"No, I'm just here to file things, its all drugs testing I think, on animals that sort of thing."
"Right, you need to get out of here, now. Grab your stuff and get out." Ianto said.
"I can't leave."
"Your contract's been changed. You're under Torchwood jurisdiction now and we are telling you to leave." Louise said calmly. She walked over to the door in the corner and kicked it open swinging her gun around and aiming it straight at Melissa's head.
"Melissa who exactly?" she asked. Melissa looked up at Louise shock all over her face. "Yeh I know it's a shock it's not every day that someone you killed comes back to do the same to you! So if you want to prolong your life. What's your name?"
"Melissa Carlisle. Look I was only doing my job."
"Actually we talk to your former boss who said you'd pretty much gone rough. So you where just acting out of fear and adrenaline and emotion."
"I did what was right."
"No you didn't I know you where scared. I could smell it and hen you start a new business? Yeh sure you never had a different agenda!" she said sarcastically. Ianto was stood in the doorway behind her. She didn't answer. "Look we're shutting you down so you can do this the easy or the hard way! What are you doing in the 'private' labs?"
"Testing."
"Testing on what?" Louise stared deep into her eyes.
"I'm just doing what I've been told.
"Told by who?" Ianto said darkly.
"By the masters." Louise froze a little, she'd only heard that term used a few times in her lifetimes and it was only ever used by a few species.
"Who are they?" Ianto carried on.
"They just told us what to do, they follow us, check up on our work. it's all for the good of mankind." Louise let out a small laugh.
"What about alien kind? Don't they have rights?" Louise shouted.
"No." she said plainly.
"Your so called masters are aliens, murderers most likely. Do you think you're the first to carry out their bidding? Do you really think they'll spare you once they've got what they want from you?" she didn't answer again. Louise stepped forward and grabbed the phone off of the desk, dialling Jacks number.
"Jack we're going to need cuffs and back up, this place is hiding something. Can you get here as soon as?" she paused as he replied. "Thanks Jack see you in a bit." She hung up throwing the phone back onto the table. "Oh and I'd really like my screwdriver back!" she looked down and Melissa with a small smile.
Any nice words???
