Summary: Quick chase for the Torchwood trio out in Cardiff but they may find something not so dangerous. (Kind of just a cute thing!)
Notes: Written for flashslash, 8 minute challenge.
The three of them dashed through the streets hot on each other's heels, Gwen in the lead. Ianto was continually surprised by the speed of the woman. No matter how many times they were out on a chase she was always leading the way.
“To the right, Gwen!” Jack's voice echoed down the alley. “Ianto, you cutie, take left.”
Ianto tired not to roll his eyes, “Behave, Jack”
All three of them broke off with Jack going straight as they came out on to the main street. It was dark, near three in the morning now and to be honest they weren't sure what they were chasing. They'd seen the energy readings on the computer and out they'd gone. If Tosh had been there still perhaps they'd already know. Still, now wasn't the time to think about that.
“I've got it! It looks like .... Oh!” Gwen's voice cracked over the comm then cut out.
“Gwen!” Ianto shouted and pivoted on the spot, heading back the way he came.
“Ianto, do you see her?” Jack's voice came through.
“No!” Ianto shouted trying to look from side to side as he ran.
“Jack, it's just-” Gwen's voice came again then cut out.
Suddenly Jack came out of a side alley beside Ianto and they were running together. Quickly looking at each other they hurried on. Where was Gwen? She should be close. Ianto skidded in the wet street, nearly falling but Jack grabbed his hand, hauling him along.
“Oy, no injuries!” He shouted.
“Yes, honey,” Ianto replied sarcastically.
“Boys!” They heard suddenly and halted in their tracks.
To the right they saw Gwen coming out of the shadows with a bemused expression on her face. Ianto quirked an eyebrow at her as she walked over. Behind her they saw two men with blue spots across her foreheads following at a timid pace looking rather submissive.
“What's going on?” Jack said.
Gwen coughed. “Well you see, the two gentlemen behind me are who we've been searching for.”
“Oh?” Jack said.
“Yes, well you see they are on their honeymoon and wanted to go somewhere exotic and had heard about this backwood planet called 'Earth.'”
“Oh god,” Ianto groaned, hand over his eyes.
“Well...” Jack grinned. “At least they're not poisonous”
Gwen looked back at the two men who both seemed to be turning a shade of purple in.... alien embarrassment?
“Don't be so sure,” Gwen said with a chuckle.
