Serenity glanced at her watch to see it read, 12:23. Bryan had mentioned something about meeting for lunch so she decided to head towards the video store. She walked in to see a man basicly shoving a piece of broccoli in Bryan's face. She frowned slightly before asking quietly, "What is going on?"

Bryan glanced at Serenity. He was afraid to answer because he knew that Gabriel would use that opportunity to put the deadly broccoli into his mouth. He was backing away, trying to get away from the vegetable. Finally he shielded his mouth with his hand. "This guy came in here and killed one of my co-workers and now he's trying to kill me. I'm allergic to broccoli."

Moving quickly she slipped into the space between them effectively blocking Bryan from the man. She gave him a gentle smile, "I'm sure it was just a mistake. Correct?" the last bit she said with some steel in her voice.

Bryan sighed in relief when she got between him and the broccoli. It was about time for his lunch break, and now the store was a mess. "Let's get out of here, please," he whispered to her.

She nodded not tearing her eyes from the man. She grabbed him hand and lead them out of the store not taking her eyes off of him until they were outside. Once outside she let out a sigh of relief before turning to confront Bryan, "What just happened back there?"

Bryan glanced back at the store to make sure they weren't being followed. "That guy came in, like any other customer," he said quietly. "Then he saw Tim and asked me some questions about him, then said he was a Timoreen. I really should have noticed, but, anyway. He then puled out a gun and started shooting, then Tim was killed. And after that guy was shoving a piece of broccoli in my face. I think he's from Torchwood."

She nodded along with his explanation but as soon as he said the word 'Torchwood' she froze and a look of pure terror flashed across her face. She glanced behind them towards the shop and said to Bryan, "Maybe we should go!?" attempting to hide the fear and uncertainty in her voice.

"That's what I was thinking," Bryan said, as much as he hated to have to leave. "We'll be alright, though. We'll figure this out. I'll see what I can do."

She squeezed his hand and smiled up at him, "We'll figure this out... together."

Bryan smiled as he moved his arm around her waist. "Yeah, we will." He smiled at her, then kissed her cheek. "Come on, let's get something to eat. I'm starved."

She grinned and kissed him. They ended up eating at a small fish and chip shop just a few streets away from the video shop.

Bryan smiled as he ate, letting his problems fade into the background. He sipped thirstily at his water and looked to Serenity with a smile.

She wanted to avoid thinking about this new issue for as long as possible but before long she was forced to confront the issues. She looked up at Bryan a serious expression filling her face, "We need to decide what we are going to now."

Bryan looked up at her. "Yeah, I know." The only option he could come up with was to run. But how far could they run, and to where? There were very little options that Torchwood couldn't easily get past.
He looked up surprised at Gabriel, backing away a little. "How the hell did you...?"

Gabriel popped up between them.
"Hello. Ehm, yes, I suspected you were half-alien, just wanted to test it with the broccolli. And I'm half-alien myself."
