“That,” Ianto panted, “was the textbook definition of a narrow escape.”


“Tell me about it!” Even Jack, with his unfair advantage of rapid healing, was tired and breathless. “Everybody okay?”


“Think so,” said Tosh. “Thank goodness for running shoes.”


“Wish I’d worn mine,” Gwen sighed. “My boots chafe. I’m getting blisters.”


“Still beats getting you head ripped off,” Owen pointed out. “What is that thing?”


“Damned if I know,” Jack admitted. “But we still have to catch it before it kills anyone.”


“Oh joy,” said Ianto. “Back into the fray?”


Jack nodded. “I think we need a better plan though.”

Love how intense this Felt, and this without knowing exactly what the dangerous creature was. 8D

200 word limit, so I figured the kind of creature was less important than what it was putting the team through. I'm not even sure if they we chasing the creature or if it was chasing them...

Thank you!

They'rev winging it... Not always the best idea.

Thank you.
