Title: Uncontrolled descent (sequel to Up, up and away)
Author: m_findlow
Characters: Ianto, Jack
Rating: PG
Challenge: 443 - Flying/Flight 443 at tw100
Notes: Ianto realises his teammates are in trouble.

'Uh Jack,' Ianto said, pointing out over the headland at the large green hot air balloon. 'I think we have a problem.'

Jack turned to follow Ianto's directions.

'I told him not to use any more gas. How the hell does he expect to land a balloon full of hot air?'

'By using it all up and crashing into the ocean, I suspect.'

'Well, they won't crash,' Jack assured him. 'The air will cool at a steady rate. More like a controlled descent. With a bumpy landing.'

'Well, we'd better get the rescue boat ready, or they'll both have hypothermia.'

Oh dear, looks like they'll need rescuing after all. Owen should listen more carefully next time.
