AN: I liked the last chapter a lot. But ive had a little aggro with this one. So I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: Sadly my request to buy torchwood and doctor who for 20 quid has been rejected again. Oh well.
Owen yawned widely and leaned back. "10 hours straight. Cant we go home Jack…I'm knackered." He moaned. Gwen yawned at the same time. Ianto tapped her on the shoulder and gave her a coffee. Jack had been right; he couldn't sit down for long. The sound of Owen messing up his kitchen made his skin crawl. Within 10 minutes he had bolted from the comfy sofa and had kicked Owen (quite literally) from the kitchen.
Gwen smiled at the offering and drank deeply. Jack sauntered down from his office. He had to admit, he was tired too and they had got no closer to finding out how the cannibals had got out of prison. Jack stretched and looked at his exhausted team, they had worked well considering.
"Alright. Pack up and go home we cane get more tomorrow." Sighed Jack heavily.
"It is tomorrow Jack" Owen pointed out. He smirked and grabbed his coat. "Bye guys" and he left without looking back.
Tosh was next to leave; she looked like she would collapse as soon as she got out of the door. Gwen was a little more reluctant. She was worried about Ianto, all night he had sat in a daze, getting up every so often to make coffee or check on Jack.
"Are you sure he's gonna' be ok?" She asked Jack when Ianto was in the kitchen. Jack put an arm round her shoulders, "yeah…he'll be fine. I'll keep an eye on him." Gwen smiled and said her goodbyes and left the Hub. Jack's face fell as she left. He had found out how the cannibals had escaped and what they wanted. He had come down to tell them, but he felt that they were too tired to continue.
Ianto came from the kitchen and looked around. "I should head home sir." He sighed and went to grab his coat.
"I would rather you stay Ianto." Said Jack as he pulled Ianto away from the coat rack.
"Sir?" Asked Ianto, puzzled.
"Tell me exactly what you saw when you were in the hospital." Jack asked firmly, Ianto sat down on the sofa and sighed deeply.
"All I can remember is mumbling and sometimes I saw them staring at me…grinning." He shuddered and leaned back.
Suddenly the alarms went off.
Intruder alert, intruder alert.
Jack ran to the steel doors with his gun ready to fire. The doors opened and the last thing that Jack saw was the barrel of a shotgun.
"Hello there Jack." The hooded figure fired the shotgun and Jack knew no more.
The last thing that Jack heard was Ianto's cries for him…and help.
Ooooooohhh tune in next time.
The scene was bleak, papers on the floor and tables turned. On Tosh's desk was a note. Jack pulled it up and read the words…
We will enjoy our meal. Thank you.
"…Ianto?"
R&R!!!
