Challenge: 376 - Rubbish
Notes: It's not all glamour, working for Torchwood

Standing out the back of Happy Harry's Chinese restaurant, Jack hoped that the smell of the food inside was a whole lot better than the smell of the food outside.

The dumpster to be specific.

'There are days when I think the rift is purposefully vengeful,' he declared.

'Whatever makes you say that?' Ianto replied, busily snapping on a pair of marigolds.

'It could have dumped our mystery item anywhere, but it chose here.'

A young lady came out and dumped another bin load into the dumpster, looking at them strangely.

'We're not homeless!' Jack yelled at her retreating form.

Poor Jack! It's not the dumpster leaving a bad smell, but the damage to his reputation :)

LOL! The Rift has an odd sense of humour. Maybe it decided to throw the item away for them, save them the trouble ;)
