Sacrificing My Love For You

Once Martha had been updated on the current situation, she agreed to help. While everyone was preparing, Ianto walked up to Martha, who smiled at him. They had been dating for over a year. Martha had come to tell Ianto, that she would be transferring from Unit to Torchwood. She told him as much.
“Ianto, I’m came here today to tell you and the rest of the guys, that I’m leaving London and Unit. I’m transferring here to Cardiff, and going to be a part of Torchwood permanently.”
Ianto smiled at her in delight, and asked “Does Jack know?” Martha returned the smile, and said, “Of course he does, it was after all he who snagged me from Unit. It’s putting it mildly when I say Unit were less then pleased. But at the end of the day, it is up to me where I choose to work.”
Ianto replied “Not that I am complaining mind you, but what are you going to do. We already have a Doctor?” Martha nodded and replied “Yeah, I’m aware of that, which is why Owen will remain as the senior Doctor here. He’s been a Doctor longer, and has more experience then me.”
She added “I’m going to be helping Owen. Plus if more then one person is hurt during a mission, there will be two of us. So say Owen is shot or I am for that matter, we take over briefly until the other is healed.”
She concluded “Plus with two of us, one of us does not have to worry about the possibility of two members having fatal injuries, and not being able to see to them at the same time.”
Ianto nodded, and pulled her into his arms, and kissed her, she happily returned the kiss. Ianto asked once pulling way from the kiss. “Where are you planning on living?” Martha replied “I’m going to start apartment hunting once this situation is taken care of.”
Ianto shook his head, and told her firmly “Oh no your not. You’re going to move in with me, and that is final.” Martha chuckled and replied “Very well, if it keeps you happy, then I’d be thrilled to move in with you.”
Jack cleared his throat, smirking as he said, “Delighted to have you on board Martha. As I’m sure Ianto is as well.” Ianto grinned at Jack, as did Martha.
Before anyone could say anything else, the rift alarm went off. Rose and the Doctor cringed at this, they having been strongly reminded of the TARDIS alarm.
Rose yelled over the noise “Christ, it’s as bad as the TARDIS alarm.” Martha yelled back “Tell me about it. I heard that blasted alarm more then once during travelling with the Doctor.”
Jack nodded in agreement, before quickly making his way over to Tosh, who was tapping rapidly on her computer. Her eyes widened, as she read the readings she was getting from the computer.
She said, “Jack, those alien’s are heading this way. I have no idea if it is Torchwood they are heading for directly, or if it has something to do with the fact we are right under the Millennium centre.” Owen having caught onto what she was getting at, added “Jack, the Millennium centre, it is swarming with people, both inside it and outside of it.”
Rose added “They can also detect advanced technology, alien technology at that. I’m willing to wager that it is here they are heading. They most likely figure if there is alien technology, then we’re a threat to them.”
The Doctor nodded, understanding what she was saying. He said, “And because they see us as a threat, they heading this way to take care of the threat. They’ll not want their plans interfered with.” Jack asked “Won’t they be able to sense the TARDIS as well?” The Doctor nodded “Naturally. This is why we need to get to the TARDIS immediately.”
Suddenly the alarm started blaring even more loudly. Everyone cringed, and placed their hands over their ears. Owen complained “That’s even worse for me and Tosh. Our bloody hearing is not of human standard.”
Jack and the others realised he was right. To them it was piercing, to Owen and Tosh, it must have been mind numbing. Jack called out over the racket of the alarm “Tosh, switch off the alarm, then make sure you’re armed along with everyone else.”
Jack suddenly had an idea “Doctor!” he yelled over the still blaring alarm “Bring the TARDIS into the hub. I’d rather be working from the hub, which means on our terms.”
Gwen asked “What, your going to let those alien’s inside of the hub?” Jack nodded, sighing in relief, as Tosh finally switched off the alarm. “Yeah, Gwen I am. I’d rather restrict them to the hub. Otherwise out in the open, we’ll end up with casualties. The less we involve the public, the better.”
Gwen nodded in understanding. Everyone then quickly burst into action. Rose and the Doctor quickly headed for the TARDIS. Owen and Jack, along with Gwen and Martha followed, while Tosh and Ianto stayed behind to monitor the hub and the CCTV. “
Jack and Owen, along with the women were going to lead them inside of the hub. They needed to keep the action contained in the hub, instead of in public, where another mass orgy could break out.
