Title: Usual Formation
Author: badly_knitted
Characters: Gwen, Jack, Owen, Tosh.
Rating: G
Written For: Challenge 721: Usual / Unusual at tw100.
Spoilers: Day One.
Summary: It’s Gwen’s first field mission and she’s totally out of her depth.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: Double drabble.
Gwen was both excited and nervous; her first field mission as an official Torchwood agent! Okay, so it was only a meteorite fallen to earth, probably something Torchwood dealt with all the time, but still, it was her first! Every new agent had to start somewhere, right?
They weren’t the first to the scene though, was that because they’d had to pick her up? What looked like police and army vehicles were already present and Owen didn’t sound too happy about that. Then again, from what she’d seen so far, Owen was never happy about anything.
Jack stepped from the SUV and the rest of the team, Gwen included, followed suit.
“All right,” Jack said calmly as he started forward. “Usual formation.”
Gwen found herself floundering. “What’s the usual formation?” she asked Owen.
His reply was no help whatsoever. “It varies.” He and Tosh were already falling in behind Jack as if it was second nature, which it probably was.
“How can a usual formation vary?” Were they messing with the new girl, some kind of hazing ritual? Gwen started to follow, then realised she’d left her kit behind. God, she was messing up already! They’d think she was useless!
The End
