Lisa was excited, the mistake Ianto had made in going into one of the seaside settlements to collect the weekly shop up of groceries fueled her on. It had been brief, momentary but now she knew where he was, and she was beyond excited… she was euphoric. She knew this place, cannot believe she forgot about it. They had stayed there one time, a lovely sex filled time, while on a job.

Her team were also pumped, the three SUVs moving at speed like some convoy taking the President of the United States to some meeting or something and as she sat in the middle SUV nestled on the back seat she decided it was not far from the truth.

The Boss was old, he was clearly losing a grip on everyone… especially her. And maybe it was time to choke out the old Goose, time for her to take the reins as it were. Reigns…. Snigger. Oh yes. She accepted the bottle of water her fat fella offered through the seats and settled back once more, thinking over the things she wanted to do to him, especially to that pretty piece of fluff he currently had warming his bed.

The kids was a problem but… she coins maybe use her as extra leverage. He might let his fluff suffer… but would ne would not enjoy watching her cut the little piggies off one by one… reciting the poem and pausing at the littlest one… the 'wee wee wee all the way home' one.

This thought pleased her, her grin wide as she hoped it would at least get a reaction from him, his stony mask she had seen the last few times they had met had hurt her in a way she could not describe. Suire, she was the unfaithful one, sure she threw him under the bus and almost got him skinned alive but… she was supposed to be his fucking everything. How dare he not only get over her but get himself some… some… movie star type sex model. Fuck, she wouldn't mind a go at him herself.

This led her to a whole new imagery of the handsome older man naked tied to a chair while she ground on him in front of Ianto, maybe some drugs to get him in the mood for a nice lap dance and screw, her back to him so she was facing Ianto while she…. Fuck!

The car stopped suddenly and the open bottle of water slopped against her as she cursed, and she placed the top on the bottle while demanding to know what the hell was going on out there.

"Sorry Boss, bloody police checkpoint" came a sighed reply as they all knew pissing her off was not a good idea "Breathalyzing thing."

"Oh for fucksake" she huffed folding her arms as she settled back then felt the wet shirt against her stomach. She was not in the mood for this, they had work to do.

She watched the first car ahead of them peel off and she then waited to follow. Her driver was breathalyzed, was fine. Then they were on their way, the car ahead now so far ahead that they could no longer see it. Damn it, she wanted to be first boots on the ground at the fucking beach house.

Finally, they swung into the parking space behind the house that faced the sea.

Lisa was just climbing out of her car, still clicking off the safety on her gun when the front door was unceremoniously kicked in by the first wave from SUV One. One of the men on the porch turned to yell something at her and she raised her hand against the sunlight to reply when it happened.

The explosion was immense, the fact she had excited on the far side of the SUV was the only thing that saved her as wood and fire flew in all directions, the third car pulling up, also pulled up in front of her so took the worst of the blast. It was still moving as those inside were 'shot' with debris.

Well…OK.

The first carload on the porch of the house maybe took the worst of it, sorry… my bad. I stand corrected.

"Shit" Owen said as he gaped at the screen, Toshiko's teeth grinding as she cursed up a blue storm at the image of Lisa stumbling from behind the vehicles to gape at the remains of the house.

"I missed her… FUCKKKKK" Toshiko threw a book from beside herself, her other and griping the tablet so hard her knuckles were white "I was so close!"

Ianto glanced into the other room where the little girl was dancing with the pink fluffy earphones on her head, the nonsense children's song playing though them helping muffle Toshiko's anger.

"So, what did that do?" Jack asked, trying not to sound accusatory.

"We took out four… no… look… five of her team. She is down to four now" Toshiko said as she settled back with mild satisfaction.

"Waste of a nice house" Owen shrugged.

"Well, it was old and unused for years that one. I remember taking Lisa there once, it is only a few miles down the beach from mine so I knew she would remember it and make the mistake of thinking we were there" Ianto shrugged, "I got it for a steal at auction since it's marked for demo."

"Some demo" Owner snorted now seeing the funny side "Like… boom chakalaka."

"Maybe I used a little to much boom boom" John agreed with a weak smile.

"Well… we needed to cull the herd" Toshiko sniffed, relinquishing the tablet to turn and face Ianto "And now we will see the rest of them. She will have to pull in the rest of her men, she will have to pull the remaining sheep into the herd, we will know all the payers left."

"And then what?" Jack asked as he watched the old derelict house's remains burn.

"Then we have a little Teta tete" Ianto sighed like he didn't want to but knew he had to. "We remind her that she is not a wolf amongst sheep… she is a rattle snake. And they can lose their heads like anyone else."

Jack saw the determination in those around him and glanced at his daughter once more, not feeling any fear for her as he knew she was safe.

They were safe.

For he was not surrounded by sheep.

He had dragons protecting this princess.
