Sorry that it took so long to upload.
Here's the next bit.
Hope you enjoy it.
The piercing scream alerted the Weevil. She glanced down at the man lying beneath her – then back and Ianto. She couldn't risk losing him...She'd lost one son...she couldn't lose another.
Suddenly, filled with anger, she launched herself at the dark haired woman, her teeth slicing into her neck.
Gwen screamed and winced as the pain rushed through her body.
"Oh God! Gwen!"
This came from Jack, who was torn between rushing to the man he loved, and saving his closest colleague.
The sound of tearing flesh filled the vaults – and it seemed as if time had stood still. By the time Jack came to his senses, he was cradling a hysterical Ianto in his arms, and seeing Owens eyes widened in terror, realised that the ferocious animal had torn the once beautiful Gwen, limb from limb – her blood splattered entrancing patterns across the walls and floor. Parts of her body bad been tossed into corners, and the lower part of her face was lying by Jack's bent knees. The man slowly kicked it away, and held Ianto tighter, and placed gentle kisses down his naked shoulders. "It's all okay Ianto...everything's okay..."
Sobs came from Toshiko who had buried her face in Owens chest. The older man was holding the woman in front of him tightly, and was whispering things into her ear, trying his best to calm her down.
The angry weevil stood in the middle of the room, eyes glazed and panting, as if triumphant.
Without warning, Tosh turned, sorrow and anger filling her expression. She pushed Owen away, and strode towards Jacks discarded pipe. Picking it up, she screamed, "YOU MURDING BITCH."
Toshiko threw herself at the animal and with no fear in her eyes; she beat the Weevil until she bled. Owen had jumped forward, and tried to pull the woman off Janet, but only in return, got a sharp elbow nudged in his ribs.
"Tosh...Tosh...Stop! She's unconscious...Please...Tosh..."
The woman's movements halted, and more tears ran freely down her cheeks, until she was uncontrollably shaking.
"G...Gw...en..."
Owen pulled the bloodied pipe out of Tosh's hands, and pulled her roughly against his chest, and held her tight as she cried.
The couple slowly fell to the floor, sobbing into each other's bodies.
Ianto's cries had slowed dramatically – although Jack could still feel his tears seeping though his shirt. He rocked the boy from side to side, and kissed his forehead. After a few moments, he moved his hands from the boys back, and held his face. Gently, he moved his face upwards, so they we're looking into each other's eyes.
"Are you alright?" Jack said tearfully. It took all of his power not to look at the red mess in the middle of the room.
Ianto nodded slightly, his cheeks red, puffy and tear stained. He looked dreadful. Dried blood was stuck in his hair and down the side of his face. The boy was still shuddering. He must have been cold...he was topless.
"Let's go back to the hub..." Jack whispered, running his thumbs over Ianto's tear stained cheeks.
The younger man didn't say anything. He tried to stand up, but his body was far too weak, and he just collapsed against Jack. He let out a strangled cry, as he sagged against the older man's chest.
"Oh, Ianto. Come here..." Jack knelt up, and put his arms strongly around Ianto's battered body. Slowly, he got to his feet, pulling the man up with him.
When standing upright, Ianto made a small whimper as he looked to his side and saw the mauled woman. Jack quickly grabbed Ianto's head, and pushed it towards his chest.
"Don't look Ianto..."
The Captain felt the younger man nod. Slowly, he helped the limping Ianto over to the exit.
When they reached the outside, Jack pushed Ianto gently against the wall and let him rest. He had no idea what he was going to do without Gwen. She was a valuable part of Torchwood – and now she was gone. Mauled to death by a weevil. She deserved better than that...
Jack sighed, pushed himself against Ianto, and rested his head against his shoulder. He felt the younger man shuffle slightly, and wrap his arms around his muscular body.
"I'm scared Jack..."
