Enjoy...x

Jack was supposed to be doing paperwork, instead he was moaning behind his desk. Ianto was hid under his desk giving jack an outstanding blow job.

"You ok Jack?" asked Gwen. As she walked in making him jump.

"Fine," jack replied stifling a moan.

"Good, Tosh wants your help she can't figure out the artefact we found,"

"Can't John help her." he said. Ianto was now deep-throating him.

"John's not here yet."

"Ok, give me a minute," he said, not being able to contain himself as he came into Ianto's mouth.

"oh, fuck… god!" he moaned out.

Gwen just walked out, laughing to herself.

"Rachel! How long do you take in the shower, honestly?" shouted john knocking on the bathroom door.

He heard it unlocking and she walked out dripping wet, and wrapped in the smallest towel John owned. It barely covered everything, john stirred

"You can go in now," she said. Smirking at him stood there gawking.

He took a step forward.

"Ah, No! Go shower. We're late as it is."

"Just a quick one," he whimpered his eyes darting towards the bed.

"Very Romantic. No, shower. Now," she said pointing into the bathroom. When john came back out she was already dressed. She pulled her mask down.

"You have a text," she said, nodding to his phone. He went over to it,

It read:

Get here now

Jack x

"We better hurry up," john Called as he was pulling his Jacket on.

"Alright, let's go," Rachel replied pulling her mask over her eyes.

John drove his car around to the Torchwood Garage. And they walked back through to the entrance,

"Why does Jack want me in the hub?" Rachel asked.

"I have no clue, love. I don't think he trusts you."

"To do what? Stay at your flat."

"And not break and enter, mug, thieve or murder."

"Ah," she nodded her head. They went through the cog door and Rachel couldn't help but smile. The hub wasn't exactly easy to get used to.

"John, do you know what this is?" Tosh called over the entire team was stood around Tosh's desk staring at a blue oblong wooden like object.

John walked to her desk, and stared at it. Then he picked it up in his hands turned it round and put it back down. Meanwhile the team were watching him.

John shrugged. "How am I meant to know?"

Ianto rolled his eyes.

Jack whistled over to Rachel, she looked up from the alien head in a jar.

"Do you know anything about alien artefacts."

"Not really,"

Jack held up the object. Rachel's eyes lit up.

"No Way!" she exclaimed strolling over to the desk and taking the object from Jack's hands.

"I almost lost my ear for one of these!"

"Your ear?" asked Gwen.

"Shop keeper had a cleaver." She let out a laugh, "That was funny,"

"What is it?" asked Owen.

Rachel stroked her fingers along the edge of the object. It started glowing.

"It's like an everlasting flare, the more contacting with heat it has the brighter it will glow. Primitive, but they were great for practical jokes."

"How did they end up in shops of the Vegas Galaxies?"

"In the black outs they came in useful for the shops. That's normally when burglars came. In the dark. No dark no burglars," she smiled. As the people around her seemed dumb founded.

"Except you," said Jack.

"What?" Rachel asked confused at his tone. It sounded stern but respectful.

"You didn't burgle in the dark, you did it in broad day light," he said

Rachel nodded, "I'm not a coward, not scared of getting caught. And how did you know that,"

"Common knowledge, and legends, myths."

"That's cool, I got myths," she chuckled.

That's when the rift alarm went off.

Rachel tensed up. Tosh pulled up the CCTV of where the rift had fractured. The four men that Rachel had dreamed about walked out.

"I told you so," Rachel muttered to John. He simply glared at her.

Rachel walked to the exit as John quickly explained everything to Jack. His eyes hardened.

"Where are you going?" He asked,

"I'm not going to let them chase me out of my city, I'm going to kill them." she said simply, hiding the pit of fear that was welling in her stomach.

John ran to her as she got to the exit,

"Rachel, they will kill you." he said, his eyes burning.

"And if I stay here they will kill the whole city looking for me. Including you." Her voice straining,

"I've killed 4 of them already, I'll manage," She kissed him,

"See you in hell," she whispered as steam slithered from her lips, one whiff of the steam and john collapsed.

"Good Luck trying to wake him up," she called as she was leaving.

She got back to the surface, and let out a sigh.

This should be fun

Hell Yeah

Rachel headed towards the harbour, her senses very alert. She was nervous. On her way to the harbour she heard a more sinister noise than the normal din. The loading of a gun, she turned and saw the army clad man pointing a gun at her.

She looked straight at him,

"That's a bit cowardice don't you think," she smirked, as he fired she dodged the bullet as everything slowed in her mind, the man came at her with two machine guns,

"Lock and Load," Rachel mocked as she started waling towards him he fired both guns, there was screaming and running in the street in all the hustle Rachel was lost. She snaked to the man, he was cackling through the mayhem. She uppercut him, he fell back with an oomph.

The crown cleared.

He pointed his guns at her, "Last words?"

"Bye," she said as she dropped the rings from the grenades around his waist. She turned her back and carried on walking. As an explosion went up behind her.

That was easier than I thought it would be

Then something huge knocked her to the side.

That was your fault for saying that the demon whispered.

Rachel turned to see the huge armoured man standing over her. About to slam down with his metal clad fists. Rachel rolled just avoiding him, shooting bullets at him. They had no effect accept maybe a scratch on his armour. He slammed his fist into her jaw, knocking her feet from under her,

How is this guy so FAST

As she dodged out of another slam. This time he anticipated her move and grabbed her foot, dragging her along the floor and up over himself, she slammed hard against the concrete of the street, winding her. He dragged her along again, but as she was soaring through the air, she opened her wings, slowing the fall. she twisted her leg in his grip. Her tail slapping across his eyes. He let out a growl of pain and let go, Rachel stumbled to the floor. She was taking to much damage, her whole body was protesting as she stood. Only to be rammed back down by a forceful set of knuckles. Electricity coursed through her being, involuntarily shooting out. It hit the metal man, who jolted and convulsed as bolts hit him. He collapsed unconscious.

"Are you kidding me," she panted "That was it." she heaved him on to his side and rolled him over to the harbour, pushing him over the side. She watched the bubbles float up and then stop as the metal man sunk to the bottom.

Two more she thought.

She limped back towards the centre of town. Back to torchwood just for a minute. A snippet of rest. Of Course, that would never happen, because that would make life easy. The youngest of the assassins was waiting for her. She simply drew her gun and shot him. Easiest way, too easy. She went over to the body. Crumpled in his hand was a note.

I've got your little human friends. Do you want them back?

She cursed under her breath. The only reason she had left them would be safe, clearly they couldn't even look after their own skins. How the small handful of humans saved the world on a regular basis was incredible.

***

Gwen's eyes felt heavy, her head was banging and she couldn't move. All in all, not good. She tried the basic movement of opening her eyes, it took an effort but she managed. She was sat in what looked like a deserted ware house. She tried to move but her hands were trapped behind her, she could hear other people stirring near her.

"Ugh," murmured Jack.

"Are you guys awake?" Owen called out.

"Yeah," was a grumble from everyone.

"What happened?" Tosh asked.

"I don't know" said jack, "Can anyone move?" there was noises of struggling as all the team members tried to stand. But a rope had them bound together and to a steel post.

"Your not going anywhere," a voice rang out. Everyone tried to look around but only Gwen, Ianto and Jack could see who it was.

A man, dressed in black trousers, and a black gown over the top, two swords across his back, several knives along his belt.

"Who are you?" Jack growled.

"Now, now. Why would I tell you,"

"I demand you tell us who you are and what you want!" demanded Jack.

"Your not really in a position to make demands," the man laughed.

"But if you really want to know, I don't really want to do anything with you lot. Your just bait."

"What for?"

"That creature that came through, with the wings and all the black leather."

"I don't know what your talking about." snarled jack.

"I think your team does though, considering some of your friends registered who I was talking about half way through." the man smirked. "Especially these two." he said pointing at john and then bringing his fingers under Gwen's chin and forcing her to look up at him.

"Get off me," Gwen Spat.

"What you going to do," he snarled as he slapped her across the face. There was an uproar from her team mates.

"Silence," he yelled, "I could be a lot less nice if I wanted too." pointing a gun at Ianto.

"So, boy. What do you know of the creature I'm looking for, I believe she goes by the name of Fawks."

Ianto didn't say anything he simply glared at the man.

Owen was back to back with Ianto he could hear everything that was going on, he just couldn't see. What he could see was a murky window, outside it showed a deserted car park. At the far end of the car park he could see a figure heading towards them, getting clearer the closer it got. Owen could recognize it, even before it jumped onto the outside ledge and brought her fingers to her lips, asking for silence. Then she smiled and winked at Owen, gave him a thumbs up and disappeared to the side.

"First of all," Rachel's voice rang out through the ware house. "He," she said pointing at Ianto,

"Is not a boy, unless your about eighty, in which case you should be in a different career, and second. Why did you use a load of randomers as my bait, I mean I was coming to you any way." she stated drawing her own sword, she had stopped on her way, entering torchwood via the garage and getting her stuff back. The man opposite her drew his own swords,

"Two on one, hardly fair." she murmured, she dodged out of the way swinging out at her, one of his swords caught her arm, just scratching her.

"Look out!" John shouted out.

"Yeah, I'll remember that, thanks" she muttered sarcastically as she blocked his swords with her own. And then cracked him round the jaw. He recoiled slightly but countered by spinning round both his swords out causing a deadly spin. Rachel jumped back, avoiding the sharp slicing action, by millimetres. Her previous fight had slowed her down. She was already tiring out, as she dodged another attack she stumbled back, her opponent saw her stumble and took advantage of her loss of balance and swiping down her shoulder, Rachel let out a cry of pain as the sword left a huge gash along her right shoulder then another as the swordsman swiped both of his swords along stomach. The swordsman went in for the finishing blow but Rachel blocked him, her other hand wrapped around her stomach, trying to slow the bleeding.

Feel free to help out any time. She blocked another hit, but he was too fast. As one sword was blocked he swung his other as it hit contact with her leg.

Any Time at all.

Oh so you want me to help now? That's a bit of a change

Rachel ducked, avoiding a swipe at her head.

Her leg was protesting as was everything else in her body.

Exhaustion

She was feeling light headed and dizzy.

Loss of blood

She was losing her sight

Unconsciousness

We're going to die

Then the blood started pounding in her head, as she hit her last strength reserve.

Fight or flight

Now under the circumstances a normal human being, would choose flight,

But your not a normal human being

Rachel's senses kick started into over drive, everything slowed down, as she dodged her opponents blows. The pain and exhaustion of her body was forgotten as demonic adrenaline surged through her. She knocked the assassin back swiping with her own sword across his chest, he let out a roar of agony. Rachel was closing the distance between them pushing him back until he thrust both of his swords into her stomach. Rachel's sword clattered to the ground. She heard some of the torchwood team gasp in shock. She heard john shout out to her. But she couldn't hear what he was yelling over the blood pounding in her ears, she dropped her eyes down to look at the two swords that were inside her. A very vague thought drifted into conciseness,

That doesn't look too good

I'll agree with that

The blood was now dripping down the from her wounds onto the floor. Rachel took a step back, then another until the swords, now covered in blood, hung loosely at the assassins sides.

"Now, what I want you to do, is go back to your little organisation, tell them that Fawks is dead and collect the reward money. Any of you come near me or mine again." her eyes darted over to the captured people "And I'll take you down one by one if I have to, because clearly. I can't die." she said simply, gesturing that she was still standing. Her vision was failing, all her muscles were stretching and straining. Every part of her wanted to just stop. But she would have to wait for that, always waiting.

The man bowed to her, Rachel nodded back as he turned and disappeared in an orange glow. Rachel's entire body was on breaking point as she bent to get her sword. She groaned as she stood straight her body needed to stop, it needed to rest, just a moment. But there was still work to be done, she stumbled towards the captured torchwood team. Her bad leg dragging as she got dizzier with each step, she cut the rope with a swift movement of her sword. Her sword clattered to the ground as Rachel's knees buckled under her, her eyes sliding shut against her will.

Cliff hanger sorry, couldn't resist.
