Summary: Gwen is faced with what she hopes is just a false alarm. A double drabble.

Gwen groaned as she heard the hub's alarms go off. ‘Not again,’ she grumbled, tossing her files back on the desk and picking herself up to trundle down three floors below the main hub.

‘Alright, which of you is playing funny buggers this time?’ she called out, demanding to know which of her two teammates had set off the hub’s biohazard alarms. They weren't supposed to be down here at all. She knew just how sensitive those systems were, and more than once they'd been set off just from the sweat and pheromones emanating from Jack's skin as they ran about on one of their many games of naked hide and seek.

‘I might just leave you locked down here this time,’ she added. ‘That would serve you right.’

‘Gwen?’ Ianto called out and leaned forwards against the large glass walls. Gwen averted her eyes lest she get an eyeful, though she needn't have bothered. He was fully clothed and looking anxious.

‘Ianto?’

‘I was only tidying up. I don't know what set it off, but my override codes aren't working.’

Gwen tried her own codes but they didn't work either. ‘Okay, just stay calm. I'll go and find Jack.’
