Title: Protecting Earth
Author: badly_knitted
Characters: Ianto, Tosh, Jack.
Rating: G
Written For: Challenge 729: Defend / Defence at tw100.
Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: Some threats to the planet aren’t intentional.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
A/N: Double drabble.
Torchwood, defending the earth from the scum of the universe…
Ianto smirked to himself; okay, perhaps that wasn’t entirely true, although they did defend Cardiff from hostile aliens, and they’d repelled several invasions that, if the invaders had succeeded in gaining a foothold, might have spread to the rest of the world.
Then there were the explosive devices they’d disarmed that could well have left a gigantic hole in the planet, or even knocked it out of orbit, and the alien technology the people of earth simply weren’t ready for yet. It was fair to say that Torchwood had saved the planet on more than a few occasions, even if most of earth’s citizens remained blissfully unaware of that fact.
Now here they were, once again defending their world against something that with any luck nobody else would ever be aware of, and they were mainly doing it from within their own base.
Ianto and Tosh worked feverishly at their computers, creating a programme to erase what was being downloaded onto the worldwide web, while Jack set up a transmitter on top of Cardiff’s tallest building to beam course corrections to an alien probe.
Human ears couldn’t handle alien ‘music’.
The End
