The second of my drabbles for Challenge 302 - Thaw at tw100. At the moment I've lost count of how many drabbles left in this story. There might be three more, possibly four. The final one doesn't fit this prompt, but is needed to complete the story. One of the others is a bit tenuous, but I'm hoping I'll get away with it.
Summary: Jack revives and gets a situation update from Ianto.
Gasping back to life, Jack found himself bundled in blankets and held tightly in Ianto’s arms.
“Hey,” he murmured, “how long was I gone?”
“About thirty minutes. Had to thaw you out first.” Ianto looked grim.
“How bad is it?”
“Ten of them, two of us. The team are on their way with weapons; we’ll be safe until then. Your playmates are getting frustrated, but at least while their attention’s on us they aren’t looking for victims elsewhere.”
“That’s some consolation I guess.” Jack pulled on the dry clothes Ianto handed him. “They’ll regret tangling with Torchwood.”
“Not for long!”
