"Right," Owen agreed. "How about me, Tosh, and Gwen be in one team and Ianto and Jack in another?"

"Sounds good." Said Gwen in her sing-song welsh, smilling again as they pulled into the marina. She got out, clutching her weevil spray.

"Works for me," Jack said, glancing at Ianto as they got out of the car.

That's how it always was, Ianto and Jack were always on the same team. Ianto liked it that way. He could spend a few heart pounding, adreneline filled moments together. That was how he usually felt, but that feeling had left. The thought of being dragged along by Jack made him tired and annoyed. He clutched the steering wheel until his knuckles were white as he raced along the streets, stopping when he had reached the dark alley way where the weevil had last been seen. "Right. Here's our stop. He crept out the driver's door, feeling the comfoting pressure of a gun at his side.

Owen took one of the new anti-Weevil sprays that he helped make after Jack told him that the Weevils were developing an immunity to it. "Come on," he said to Tosh and Gwen. He led them through the street where he saw one ambulance flanked by two police cars. The neon yellow vests were unmistakable even from a distance. Owen swore. "Jack," he called in his headset. "The Weevil attacked another person. It looks like the coppers are going to pursue it. Call them off."

Jack swore as he heard Owen's report. On the bright side, they now knew which way the Weevil was headed. Jack picked up the pace and made his way over to the scene of the crime.

There Jack went tearing off again, expecting him to follow withougt so much as a glance in his direction. Ianto followed, but his mind raced with angry thoughts. Jack was his leader, yes, but Ianto was having a hell of a time accepting him back. It was the fact that Jack had run off and left him, and now that he was back he pretended as if nothing had happened, as if he had never left. Ianto felt betrayed, as if he wern't at all special to Jack, as if they shared no special bond. Ianto was begining to wonder if they still did.

"Special ops!" Said Gwen, running past the police barriers to see a man, mauled to death, being examined by medics.
"Tosh, any idea where it might have gone?" she asked looking around.

Tosh looked over at Gwen and scanned the scene. She pulled out a scanner from the inside pocket of her black jacket and let it run it's course. She looked up and ahead.
"Straight ahead Gwen...right towards the center of town" she looked over at Gwen with real concern in her eyes.

Gwen swore under her breath. "Ok, best pursue on foot, that way we have a better chance of surrounding it than we would in the SUV." She said, looking around and sprinted off, having been a PC she was a very fast runner. As she ran she activated her comm. "Ianto, Jack. The weevil's heading towards the town centre, we're pursuing on foot."

Jack had managed to convince the police officers that they were taking care of things. He glanced over at the dead body. They had been too slow. And now the Weevil was headed towards the center of town. Interesting choice.
"Come on, Ianto," he called, hurrying after Gwen.

Owen stayed behind to see the man who was mauled to death. "Stay back," he commanded. "I'm a doctor." He put his gloves on with a snap and closely examined the man. "Ok, he's been punctured in the jugular along with the carotid artery. He's lost too much blood, there isn't anything we can do."

He got up to catch up with the team when one of the police officers asked, "Excuse me, who are you guys?"
"We're Torchwood," Owen said before running off.

"Of course sir" Ianto replied sullenly, running to catch up. My captain, my captain. Ianto thought sarcastically to himself. My ignorant, thoughtless captain, doesn't even realize my hurt. He ground his teeth against the upwash of pain, turning the pain into power. He surged ahead with long stides and caught even with Jack.

Gwen sprinted through the allyways, it was getting dark now, surely she had to be catchingup with it. As if on cue, she rounded a corner into a dead end, in which stood the Weevil.
"I've got it trapped down a dead-end." She said into her comm. "Just down the way from the 'Kings Crown' pub."

(( I dunno if there is a 'Kings Crown' pub in Cardiff lol, but i couldn't think of anything else. ))

(( Sounds convincing enough. ))

"We'll be right there. Be careful, Gwen," Jack responded. "This way," he said to Ianto. He sighed after seeing Ianto's expression. Not now, Ianto. Later, maybe. But as for now, there was a Weevil to deal with, and Jack didn't want Gwen too close to a cornered Weevil by herself.

( Lol, thanks )
Gwen clutched at the spray in her hands, edging closer to the Weevil. 'Come on, hurry up guys' she thought, as she drew nearer, steadying her breathing. Suddenly it looked up, Gwen couldn't help but jump and then it lunged at her. She managed to dodge it, but it's teeth caught her arm in the process.
