Set before CoE but after series 2. The characters do not belong to me.

Thanks to Jaz for beta - reading this for me and for all the help she has given me !

They were having a quite week in the office; the rift had finally decided to behave.

Jack was sat in his office, scanning his eyes over the CCTV of Ianto making his 11 o'clock coffee. Smiling to himself as the Welsh man cleaned his beloved machine, he scanned the rest of the cameras to look for Gwen as he'd only seen her once this morning and then, she was looking pretty tired and upset. He couldn't spot her in any of the pictures.
"Ianto!"
"Sir?"
"Where's Gwen got to?"
"Last time I saw her, she was on her way down to the filing cabinets to sort through some old cases. Why?"
"Oh okay then. Do you know why she looked upset this morning?"
" Apparently, she was just feeling ill and tired. I think things are getting on top of her lately. We should keep an eye on her!"

Down in the Filing system Gwen was flicking through old cases, not really paying attention to what she was reading. A low growl snapped her out of her daydream. She spun around, her eyes crying out with fear as she saw the weevil approaching her slowly.
Backing towards the cabinet she reached to press her comm on before realising she'd left it on her desk. Panic crossing her features she opened her mouth to yell for Jack just as the Weevil filled the space between them reaching for her neck.

Gwen was smashed into the edge of the cabinet as she tried to protect her neck from the ferocious looking Weevil. A wave of dizziness hit her as she reached to the back of her head feeling the warm wet liquid plastered to her hair. Blood.
Her vision blurring as she tried to focus on not getting ripped apart by the weevil. The next thing she saw, shocked her to her very core.

The weevil was backing away sensing she was injured and needed help. Blackness was overpowering her as she fell against the cabinet landing with a crash on the floor.

Upstairs, Ianto heard a muffled crash from down the stairs, looking up to Jack's office he saw him come out of his office, panic crossing his face.
"Ianto, what the hell was that?"
"It wasn't me; it came from down stairs!"
They looked at each other a spasm of fear on their faces.
"Gwen!" They yelled at the same time.

Racing down to the Filing system, they began yelling to Gwen. Jack reached the room first. His heart almost stopped. There was a Weevil standing over an unconscious Gwen, a small pool of blood surrounding her head. Jack had frozen to the spot as Ianto rushed into the room, colliding with Jack.
"Jack, what are you...?"
He stopped as he saw what Jack was staring at.
"Gwen!"
The Weevil turned at the source of the noise, retreating back to be closer to Gwen. Ianto stepped forward noticing this action. The Weevil crouched down and looking scared, he let out a low moan. At this point Jack woke up from his trance and rushed to be next to Gwen, not even slightly caring about the Weevil that crouched next to her.

Gwen's eyes were closed, her face drained of colour and small rasping breathes seeped through her lips. On Jack's approach to Gwen the weevil snarled, showing his sharp teeth.
"Ianto, get rid of him!"
"But.. it's.. it hasn't hurt her! It's protecting her!"
"I don't care! Get him out of here so we can get her help!"
Ianto pulled out his stun gun, shocked the Weevil and dragged him down to the cells before rushing back up to Gwen and Jack.

Jack was crouched over Gwen, checking her breathing and pulse as he spoke calming words to her.
"Jack?"
"Yeah?"
"We need to take her up to the medical bay! Get her fixed up!"

Jack carefully picked up Gwen's limp form up, fighting back his fear of losing her.
Re-arranging her neck so it was resting against his chest, he rushed up to the medical bay, Gwen held tightly against his chest.

Review ? Should I carry on with this ?
