When Owen and I got there Gwen, Ianto, and Tosh were already there waiting.
Gwen had a black jacket on to match her dark hair. Tosh was wearing a long purple leather jacket, and her shoulder length hair framed her Japanese face.
"Ready to see who Jack was so urgent to meet?" Owen asked as we approached Gwen and Tosh.
"I guess so," Tosh answered. "Better arm ourselves. We don't know who or what's on the other side."
"Agreed," Gwen pulled her gun out and we all copied.
We descended into the basement bar, into a corridor, with red walls leading to a door, with two hallways on either side.
Ianto and Tosh took the left corridor, while Gwen took the right.
Guns ready, Owen and I carefully pressed our ears against the door. We heard voices on the other side.
"How's the Time Agency?" We heard Jack ask someone.
"Didn't you hear? The Time Agency shut down." A familiar man's voice said.
"You're kidding."
"No," the man said. "There are only seven of us left now."
"Wow," Jack reacted.
"It's good to see you." He said. "I was never the same without you."
"You need to go." Jack ordered. "This is my territory."
"What?!" the man's surprised. "You could never get enough of me on you territory." He grabbed his gun and shot the glass in the doors where we were hiding. "Alright, everybody out."
We burst through the doors into a bar room. With a bar table lined with drinks on the left side of the room.
Gwen, Tosh, and Ianto arrived the same way Owen and I did. Guns raised and ready to shot any surprises.
Jack sat on a bar stool, and the man had dirty blonde hair and wore an old red solider jacket. Oh great.
"Guns down, it's okay," Jack ordered as he stood up.
"You've got a team!" the man said amazed. "How sweet! No blonde, you need a blonde."
"God, he's worse than Jack." Owen complained.
"Do you have a team name?!" he asked. "I love team names!"
"Torchwood," Jack said.
"Oh," the man said. "Not the best name I might say. But Torchwood works."
"Gwen Cooper, Ianto Jones, Toshiko Sato, Owen Harper, and Violet Boulstridge, meet -"
"Captain John Hart." John interrupted.
"We go back." Jack said.
"Excuse me. We more than go back. We were partners." John explained.
"In what way?" Ianto asked.
"In every way," John answered.
"It was two weeks," Jack corrected.
"Except the two weeks we were trapped in a time loop, so we were together for five years." John said. "It's like having a wife."
"You were the wife." Jack corrected.
"You were the wife!"
"No, you were the wife!"
"But I was a good wife!" John looked at me. "Now that's a face I met before. Violet is it?"
"Yes, and it's horrible to see you again John is it?" I taunted.
John smiled and Jack looked confused. "You've met before?"
John looked away from me. "Yes the first night I came here."
"He's the reason I came to your little Torchwood hub." I explained.
Jack understood now. "So John, what brings you to Cardiff?"
John walked back beside Jack, "Does there have to be a reason?" Jack was not convinced. "Okay, I was working with this woman, beautiful, clever, and so on." John continued. "She gets shot, she's dying and she begs me. To finish this project she was working on. Three canisters, somewhere in Cardiff, your people will get infected if they stay out there. We need to destroy them."
"And what will you get out of it?" Jack asked, still not convinced.
"Granting a dying woman's last wish," he answered. "Will you and your team help me find them?"
Jack hesitated. "Fine, let's head back to the hub."
