Spoilers: Nada.
Summary: The Rift’s latest gift has created a cleanup dilemma for Ianto.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Torchwood, or the characters.
It hadn’t been an easy task, not by any stretch of the imagination. It had taken the entire team half the night, and a great deal of ingenuity, to drive the immense, lumbering beast across Bute Park and back through the Rift portal that had dumped it in Cardiff.
Considering how long the portal had remained open, they’d been lucky only one creature had found its way through.
Finally, they could begin cleanup.
Tosh would handle the CCTV, erasing visual evidence, but Ianto was flummoxed.
However would he explain away the mammoth footprints in Cardiff council’s freshly laid concrete footpaths?
The End

Thank you!

Don't worry; it'll work. This is Cardiff, after all. All the excuses are superficial anyway, people know there's something strange going on!

Thank you!

Thank you!

Date: 2014-07-20 10:29 pm (UTC)Of course, it might not have been an ACTUAL mammoth in this one, it could just be something else with very big feet, it works either way. I only realised that after I posted it.
Thank you!
