"Owen you keep searching the CCTV and do a heat scan on all the levels of the hub." Ordered Jack through gritted teeth. "Where's Tosh?!"
Owen looked around only then realizing the team was indeed missing his favorite techie. He then tried to recall her words before she had left. "She said she was going to take a long lunch earlier."
"Well get her back here and get her started on figuring out what that thing did with Ianto!" He turned and stalked towards the archives yelling at Gwen over his shoulder. "Gwen, you're with me. Show me where he disappeared. I need you to tell me exactly what happened!"
"I'm sorry Jack. I'm not really sure how to get back there. I was lost when I found him." She told him as she trailed him from behind. "He was sitting at a small desk, going through some old looking files."
"Was he by any chance sitting on a rather expensive looking leather chair?" The corner of his mouth twitched allowing a brief smirk on his face. Ianto had been exceptionally tired one night after a weevil hunt and had gone home for some badly needed sleep. Without the Welshman to give him something or rather someone to do, he spent the majority of the night checking out everyone's browsing history just for the fun of it. He always seemed to discover new things about each member of his team when he did that, like Owens obsession with You Tube and Chuck Norris. Ianto's browsing history had been wiped and that only made him curious to dig. He found all the deleted history but there was nothing out of the ordinary; that was until he went back a few months and saw a lot of searches on high back leather chairs. Eventually he found the requisition slip that was signed and approved and the delivery slip through quite a bit of digging. With nothing else to do he set about finding said chair and came upon Ianto's little corner. He was planning on breaking in that chair and reprimanding him in the most enjoyable way possible but hadn't quite gotten around to it yet.
"Jack... Jack! Do you know where you're going?"
"We are headed to Ianto's little hidden corner which he thinks no one knows about. I didn't hear you answer my question."
"Oh I don't know I wasn't looking at the chair, but he was sitting at a desk."
"That's what I thought." After ten minutes Jack came to a sudden stop in front of the mess that had been caused earlier. "What happened?"
Gwen went into a short explanation of the events that led to the current situation with a bit of twisting to keep as much blame off of her as possible.
"Now when you say the artifact was on the shelf, I have to ask were the shelves on the floor?" He asked incredulously. "Tell me the truth Gwen! I find it hard to believe an alien device would go off on its own while sitting on a shelf." He then stood looking down at Ianto's abandoned clothes. There was now a naked Welshman missing and he was really starting to get pissed off. If Ianto was going to be naked he had to be in Jack's bed.
