Challenge 396 - Maternal instinct

Title: Maternal instinct
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Torchwood team
Rating: PG
Challenge: 396 - Bottle
Notes: The team battle against an unlikely alien problem

It wasn't hard to find. The sound of the infant's crying was very loud.

It cried the whole way back to the hub, sat in Gwen's lap, cried all the while Owen examined it, and didn't even stop when Jack and Tosh tried cuddling it and bouncing it on their knees.

Jack wasn't sure how much more of the sound he could take, when he suddenly heard silence descend over the hub.

'What happened?' he asked worriedly.

The tiny alien was curled up in Ianto's arms, purring and suckling a baby bottle.

'It was just hungry. Babies cry when they're hungry.'

Ianto knew what to fed an alien baby ?
