Unfortunately, this isn't a chapter per se. It's more like a preview of what's to come. You see, with 4 Janto fics at once my brain went on overload. Jack and Ianto have worn me out. I'm really sorry but I need to take a break from writing fan fiction for awhile so I can work on my original stuff. And try to find a job to help pay the bills.

I'm NOT quitting though, I have every intention of finishing the fics. I just have massive writer's block right now. So, to hopefully tide you over, here's what I want to have happen on "Wild Endeavour":

During Ianto and the Doctor's adventures we might later on see something like this:

"I've been thinking," Ianto said as he and the Doctor sat at a little café in Rome in 50AD.

"Oh, he's been thinking—that can't be good."

Ianto threw a piece of bread at him, "It's not good when Jack thinks. Now, listen I've been thinking; what if the Master wasn't the only one to hide from the war?"

The Doctor's features softened, "Yeah, I've thought of that and it's a nice thought. But the trouble is how do we find them?"

"True but you gotta have hope right? What's the point of tomorrow if you don't have hope?"

The Doctor grinned, "Very true, very true indeed, Ianto. I think I know why Jack hired you."

Ianto smiled, "And for starters I think we need just two Time Ladies."

The Doctor arced an eyebrow, "Oh, Time Ladies, eh? What, repopulate the species with two couples?"

"For starters, till we find the others."

"And where will we put them?"

"We'll find somewhere."

The Doctor leaned back, "It's a nice dream, Ianto, I have to admit."

"A dream that I have every intention of making reality. If daleks can escape the war, if the Master can, so can other Time Lords. I refuse to believe we're the last ones. There are others out there Doctor, you just have to have hope that one day you'll run into someone clever with a fob watch."

"Hope eh?" the Doctor held up his cup, "Well then, here's to hope. I quite like hope."

Also during teenage Jack and Ianto's adventures, we'll find out that they went to a "Transylvania like" planet and met a "Frankenstein like" scientist who took skin scrapings from both of them. When Ianto and the Doctor return there (just a day or so after Ianto and Jack left) they discover something most interesting. Ianto might faint.

Anyway, I hope this helps to tide you over or at least convince you to stick around. Please bear with me, I really need this break. Jack and Ianto have driven me to near insanity. It's not as fun as it sounds. I have 4 different versions of Ianto in my head, Jack for some reason tends to remain the same for the most part.

I thank all of you who've read, reviewed, favourited, and put this on alert. That means a lot to me. So, I will try not to take too long with my sabbatical.

Oh, and though I'm taking a break from my own fan fiction I am betaing for JB Minuet. Please check out "Not So Happily Ever After." It works with canon in that it's about Jack's healing process after COE. I know that's probably not something a lot of you would normally read but please check it out and leave a review if you like it. Thank-you.
