The Light Dances

"Look what I found in archives." Ianto held a sealed glass box of twinkling lights.

"It's beautiful!" said Tosh, enchanted.

Jack said, "Take that back wherever you found it." His face was grim.

"It looks like thousands of fireflies," said Gwen, peering closely. "Are they alive?"

"Alive and dangerous. Ianto, put it back in the vault. Be very careful. Lock it and seal it."

"Why? What can they do?"

"They're called nanogenes. They can cure any ailment."

"Question." Owen held up his pen in inquiry. "Isn't that a good thing?"

"They nearly destroyed this planet. Lock them up," said Jack.
