"Gwen, about Ianto"
"Hmm?" She said, not looking up from her computer screen, which was so much more interesting than Jack apparently...
"Well, I understand how upset you were last night, and you deserve an explanation..."
"I'm listening," she turned round, arms crossed across her chest.
"I had to...You weren't there during that raid, you were home with Rhys, but one of them made a grab for me...and the other shot...God Gwen. And Ianto just threw himself in front of me, no regard for his own safety! He could have gotten himself killed trying to protect me! I can only thank whatever pathetic excuse for a god made that bullet miss! He can't seem to remember that I can't die!" He shoved his hands into his pockets, exhaling deeply.
"He doesn't want to see you hurt Jack. It's not a crime"
"That's not the point. I don't want him to die before his time"
"Can't you see you're being an idiot? Is this what's going to happen to all of us? We either die in the line of duty, or get Retconned when your sick of seeing us-"
"It's not like that. Live long enough and you see enough death to disillusion you..."
"Right, well we've got to find him. I just pulled up some police files from the other day. Unusual amounts of people reported missing in the Cardiff area, unconfirmed reports of a mass kidnapping. But the disappearances appear to be completely random..."
*******
Ianto sighed, he wasn't getting anywhere with trying to get through to any of the team...
He'd tried everything from notes to cups of coffee on their desks. He just concluded that they really did take everything he did for them completely for granted.
So he'd left the Hub and went home. If no one was noticing him, he might as well go somewhere where it didn't matter if he was noticed or not...
At least he'd have his television for company in his flat.

"Right, John, Sabine. Our mission is to find Ianto, everything else is not the priority unless the world ends. Got it?"
"Why? Where's Eye-Candy hiding?"
Gwen cut in before Jack even had the chance to open his mouth. "We don't know"
John smirked. He'd gotten over his concern for Jack leaving. At the fore of his thoughts was the fact his competition was out of the way...He had his chance with Jack... "So, what do we do?"
"John, run CCTV scans of the city, single out every Caucasian male who fits Ianto's description, you know the program to use," Gwen was taking control, and Jack was happy for her to do so..."Sabine, can you check the medical records of all the disappeared, see if we can catch a trend?"
They both turned and walked to the areas Gwen had directed them too. She turned to Jack who simply whispered, "Thank you", as he turned back to his office.
"Not so fast Jack. We, are checking the Hub, and then Ianto's flat"
