Chapter eight

A Ritz in the blitz….

Jade played with her dress, she kept looking to Jack while playing with a program for the Cardiff Apple convention, she smiled thinking about how she was going to be able to see all the new products, how she could try and get something for Torchwood three, she kept smiling while Jack drove to the location.

Pulling up to the old building, Jack getting out of his side, he walked over to Jade's side opening the door for her before glancing over her outfit, a classical red dress, he looked over her hair pulled into a French knot, her lips a light ruby red, her eyes bright, she looked better than she had looked for a long time, she stepped out of the car wearing simple red heels shoes, not hooker height like Elena, but still enough to give her an extra four inches, she stood beside him holding her Macbook bag, her eyes going to Jack. "What?" she asked casually, she wasn't used to Jack staring at her like this.

Jade spun on the spot looking to Jack's wonderful blue eyes, she felt he always new how to make her feet beautiful, "Apple convention," she looked pleased with her, "I am happy you let me go." She added while looking to Jack with a pleasant smile, her eyes going to the building.

"And Ianto is fully aware you hacked the program, changed Steve Jobs location from Tokyo to Cardiff?" he asked her with a smug look, Jade just struggled, "My girl," he lightly pushed her towards the building, "we shouldn't be more than ten minutes…" he added.

Jade nodded, "Yes, I don't want to miss my chance of seeing my hero in the flesh," she flashed him a smile before walking to the door, "but the building is going to be pulled down next week," Jade sighed while the walked into the abandoned building. "Ritz dance hall hasn't been used since nineteen eighty-nine," Jade said more serious as her and Jack walking into the building, it was a shell of it's former self, the wallpaper flaking. "People complaining they can hear music from the nineteen forties." She took out a device that was picking up rift activity; she glanced to Jack while he looked up hearing music.

Jack glanced to the stairs; he turned to face Jade, "Wanna check it out?" Jack asked but heard music coming from the top of the stairs rushing to see if he could find anything. He stopped looking to the dance hall, glancing behind to see Jade not running, but carefully moving as fast as she could in an attempt to not break her neck in heels. "Chandelier, no neon lights," Jack said while walking onto the dance floor, he took hold of Jade's hand pulling her into a waltz, she kept laughing. "Band playing, the wine flowing, the war, the no idea of tomorrow, guys asking girls to dance, Girls asking guys…" Jack spun Jade knocking her Macbook bag making her move back carefully.

"When you heading for war?" she finished Jack's sentence walking to the stairs making her way down while laughing. "Well I can say without a doubt, there was rift activity, but nothing to completely worry about." Jade nodded while listening to the music, but this time it was stronger, louder.

Jack turned on his heels, he started to race up the stairs again, but when he got to the hall, he couldn't believe his eyes, people dancing, a live band, and everything looked shiny and new. "Wow…" Jack clapped his hands feeling smug about everything.

Elena stood at the top of the railings looking over the medical bay, wearing a loose fitting strapless top, a part of dark blue boy fitting jeans, she glanced down to watch Owen clean up the area. It had been a good three weeks since the whole weevil fight club, but it seemed like Owen had healed up good, he wore yellow gloves that went to his elbows. Cleaning up the examining table, his eyes going up to Elena watching him. "How you doing?" Elena asked while leaning over the railing to get closer to him, but the smell was strong making her lean back.

"Yes, nothing says clean like the smell of boiling water and bleach," he glanced up to Elena laughed, but something caught him off guard, "Ianto what is that annoying beeping?" he yelled.

Elena turned around to look, "Maybe someone's Tamagotchi is dying…" she said with a giggle, but then it was only hiding the fact that when it came to computers she only really knew the basics, on, off, goggle and solitaire.

Ianto walked over to the computer, he could see that the rift was getting some serious activity going on. Owen laughed to Elena, "heard a lot of Nano pets die?" he asked watching her watching him, her eyes narrowed lightly as she pulled her top down giving him a quick flash. Owen blinked, then gasped.

"That will be the last time you see the naughty pillows if you mock me again," Elena wiggled her eyebrows, her hands playing with the top watching Owen taking off the gloves. "No…" Elena held her hands up watching him walking towards her. "Owen…"

"Think you can take away the viewing pleasure…." Owen moved quickly catching Elena around the waist holding her close to him, he lightly brushed his lips against hers, "I might take away the physical pleasure." He whispered into her ear while running a hand up her top. "That I know you love," his hand moved over her bra, "so much…" His voice so smooth in her ear making her legs feel weak.

"You two I think it's seri…." Ianto started but stopped turning around, "Serious…" his eyes rolling, "I mean seriously, something is going on, and you two are at it!"

"I'm gonna assume the Nano died…" Elena felt Owen moving his hand; she kept looking to Ianto with a side-glance to Owen. "Okay, serious now, what is it Ianto?" for the fact she kept feeling Owen's hand working over her arse, "Owen," her voice a low whisper.

"Well," Owen started while keeping his eyes on Elena, he really was hoping it was Ianto over reacting, because all he wanted to do right now was get a room with Elena and be alone. "What is it then?"

"Rift activity…" Ianto kept looking from Elena back to Owen, then he made his way make his way to the main computer while looking over the flashing red writing, a lot of Jade's equations.

Elena walking closer to the computer, she brushed her hands over the keyboard, but stepped back as Owen moved closer to it, he kept looking over everything, "so what does this mean?" he asked Ianto, part of him not even sure what he was looking at.

Ianto inhaled, "Well, I am thinking that too," he touched his earpiece, "Jade…" he then tapped it again, "Jack," then looking to Elena and Owen, "Well what ever it is, they're not responding…" Ianto glanced from Owen to Elena.

Owen reached back to the computer typing something quickly; it made a mean sounding beep. "Maybe it misses its mummy?" Elena laughed while looking to Owen with a cheeky smile.

"Misses its mummy, really Elena?" Owen turned to face her, he felt her eyes pulling him in like they would always do, her hand reaching for his shirt pulling him in, her hand running down the front of his jeans with a look in her that only said one thing.

"Elena," Ianto snapped her name so quick, "how about you go and tell Jade what is going on…" he kept his tone as even as he could.

"Well, I know they were going to the Ritz dance hall, I'll go and see if I can catch them," Elena found her car keys looking to Owen, "stay here and keep Ianto company," she tossed the keys in the air catching them, she quickly kissed his check, "I won't be too long," she winked while heading to the parking garage.

Owen inhaled, exhaled while tapping Ianto shoulders, "you just cock blocked me, you are aware of that…" his voice serious, he tapped Ianto shoulder again looking to the medical bay.

"Owen, a serious situation has accrued, and you're just thinking of getting into Elena's knickers." Ianto's eyes looked into Owen's eyes trying to make something clear about what had just happened.

Owen inhaled, "Well, what can I say, she's one hell cat in the sack, and she's all mine…" he smirked while starting to look over the computer trying to work something out, he left Ianto standing not quiet sure what to think.

Jade caught up with Jack before freezing in the moment, "It looks so real," she whispered seeing the people talking, dancing, she felt like she was among the people of this time, as her eyes going to Jack's face she could see the smile spread across his face, he kept smiling so big, he fitted in well.

The room was buzzing, but Jack felt his eyes shift to look over Jade's face, "It is real," Jack laughed while looking to his wrist strap with a pleasant grin, "A temporal time shift," he laughed thinking about how they were really in the nineteen forty one. He kept feeling like this was the best feeling in the world, but Jade was holding onto his arm.

"I think it's best we leave." Her voice subtle, but Jack knew some truth behind her words; they needed to be in their time.

"Yes, I suppose you're right," he took her hand leading her to the stairs.

A old man stopping them near the exit, he smiled to them politely, "Leaving so soon?" he asked with a look that Jack couldn't put his finger on.

"Guess so," He bowed his head while following Jade into the street. He paused he glanced around where they walked into the street the darkness caught him off guard. Jack looked around, the cobble road, the smell of the air around them.

Jade ran into the street looking around, she knew it wasn't just the Ritz dance hall, they were in fact in the past, she brushed her hands down herself looking to the sky, "well I have a feel, we're not going to be getting back to our time so easily…" her voice calm, but even if inside she wasn't quiet sure what to say looking to Jack. "We better go back inside," she was hoping if they went back inside, they'll be returning to their own time.

Jack nodded, he placed a hand to Jade's back, he looked to over her, "Might as well blend," he took his ear piece off, placing it in his pocket.

Jade taking her digital watch off, her ear piece, her eyes going to Jack placing her things in Macbook bag, her breathing calm, "So what are we going to do?" she asked trying to remember that there was always a solution.

"Right now, enjoy ourselves," he walked them over to a bar, he kept thinking about the time, around this time in London he first saw the Doctor, he felt a warm sensation running through him, he couldn't believe it, but with The Doctor, he had grown to expect the unexpected.

"Right, a good time," Jade pouted, she didn't get a good feeling from this, she was really looking forward to the apple convention, but now she was stuck in a era that technology was nothing but a work of fiction, she felt Jack taking her arm leading her to the bar, the people around all having a good time, she had to try and blend, but how could she when she was part Chinese in a time where Asians weren't trusted. "If I'm not mobbed…" Jade muttered under her breath feeling herself the sore of thumbs.

Jack laughed, "you've got nothing to worry about, you're with your captain," he winked to her before looking to the barman, "I'll have a scotch and water please," he looked to the dance floor, the fact they were here.

Barman placing the drinks down, Jack ran his hands down his pockets, he looked to a young man stand by them, "these ones, on me…" he smiled placing some notes down onto the bar, "I just ask one favour." He looked to Jade; he didn't even wait for Jack to reply taking Jade to the dance floor.

Jack laughed as Jade was pulled onto the dance floor, he couldn't help but chuckle as Jade danced awkwardly. Until he heard a girl speaking, "Why is George dancing with a Jap?" her voice was a dirty sound, Jack didn't like it, and he walked between the girl and who she was talking to.

"She's not Japanese, in fact she's Chinese, you know it's offensive to mix them up, get her all angry…" Jack laughed walking away from the girl leaving her confused.

Elena pulled up in front of the dance hall, she glanced around, and she could see the SUV still parked.

"SUV is here," Elena, said into her earpiece, she felt herself inhaling while looking around the outside of the building.

Getting out of her car, she slowly walked around to the front door; she opened it up lightly while looking inside, she felt like she was missing something, part of Elena kept looking around trying to pick up on Jack, she could feel something out of place, her eyes studying her surroundings.

Walking onto what looked to be a dance space hearing music Elena turned her head, "Jack!" she called out, but nothing answered her, she felt herself looking around the dance hall, maybe just maybe she'd find something, but a part of Elena wasn't holding her breathe, she kept looking.

Standing still Jack glanced around, he could have sworn he'd heard Elena's voice, but as he looked around, he could only see Jade on the dance floor, her face was screaming for Jack to help her, so he quickly rushed to her side. "Do you mind?" he tried to keep as friendly as possibly, but the guy, who he'd learn to be called George was giving him an evil glare.

"I was only borrowing her mate," he tried to make his voice sound innocent, but his face told a completely different story.

Jack inhaled, "Maybe she doesn't want to be borrowed," he kept his tone calm, but the boy wasn't making things easy with his attitude.

George kept looking over Jack, "You want to make something of it?" he looked mean, wanting to start a fight, but Jack knew that this kid didn't know who he was messing with.

Jack laughed, "you can always dance with me if you like?" He kept his face cheerful, but George pushed him back, his face looking meaner, "Okay, I'll lead, you'll follow." Jack couldn't be any nicer, but he knew what would happen, so he pushed the kid away from him keeping that charming smile on his face.

"Come on Jade…" Jack turned away, he was going to be the bigger man, but when George pulled him back, turn him just to punch him in the face, Jack felt his hands pushing the boy to his feet, he looked slightly pissed off now standing above him.

"Jack!" Jade called his name, George getting to his feet, it seemed like he wasn't taking the hint, "Jack we're meant to be blending in," her voice slightly annoyed at the clear displace of testosterone seeping its poison into the air.

"Cut it out kiddo!" A man stood in front of Jack, he looked to George serious, his voice American, for a second it made Jade stop and stare at the man who'd broken up the fight, she inhaled trying to keep herself in character. The man turned to Jack and Jade, he smiled, "sorry about that, men are all lively tonight, last night before being shipped out early tomorrow," he kept his tone smooth, Jade looking him over feeling like there was something in him she'd seen somewhere, but couldn't quiet place it. "Apologise to the man George!" His voice snapped to the man.

"I was only dancing…" George tried to make excuses for himself, but the man's face didn't fall.

"I think it was your fist in his face, not your fox trot…" The man kept serious, the fact was he clearly didn't like the kids attitude and blatant disrespect to another human being.

George inhaled, "sorry…"

"It's okay, you barely touched me," Jack was being smug, Jade could roll her eyes, but the man kept looking to her so she kept her face clean.

The man nodded, "Also, I think you owe an apology to the lady…"

"I'm sorry…" George hated this, he felt like a child who was being told off, not a solider going to war.

Jade inhaled, as much as she tried, "Well, you're lucky, I left my knuckle duster at home…" her eyes glaring to the man, she didn't accept fake ass sorry.

"Such the joker, she's so funny…" Jack placed a hand on Jade's shoulder, he was hoping that she wasn't serious about the look she was giving George, who now looked terrified of her.

"So you're a volunteer?" The man asked Jack, he looked happy, and he caught up with Jack and Jade pretty quick while holding a hand out. "I'm Captain…" the men laughed, they spoke the same time.

Jack inhaled, "you go first…" he pointed feeling happy.

"I'm Captain Jack Harkness of the one hundred and thirty three squadron." Jack, the real Jack was smiling.

But Jade and Jack stood looking gob smacked, the fact was, Jade knew Jack, this man had the same name, and now she was looking from one Jack to the other Jack.

"Smile," A creepy man said quickly taking a picture, and Jade for a moment felt frozen looking from one man to the other.

Ianto was looking over the history; he kept looking to Owen, "Stop touching Jade's computer!" he kept slapping Owen away.

"Alright, alight, keep your knickers on man," Owen kept looking down to the pieces of paper, rifting through them, then inhaled, "Ritz dance hall opened in nineteen thirty nine, closed in nineteen eighty nine, and to be demolished," he laughed, "Next week," he now turned to see Ianto working through news articles on the monitor. "Are you always Jade's bitch?" he asked while looking to the screen from behind Ianto's head.

"No, but what I've seen," He looked to Owen, "I mean a month practically you and her have been together, and you're already in the home movie business…" he kept looking to the screen.

"What you know about that?" Owen snapped, he felt violated by Ianto, but wasn't going to show it as he kept looking through paper.

Ianto laughed, "you lent Jade a DVD series of CSI NY, and inside I found that and not the DVD that was meant to be in there," he nodded.

"Pervert!" Owen muttered.

Ianto sighed, "Not like I wanted to watch, but the DVD remote's batteries went funny, and I found it hard to turn it off, without having to have my face up close with your arse on the TV screen!" he then paused he saw something, he knew who he saw. "Shit…" He pointed to the screen bringing the photo up close, "It's Jade… and Jack!"

"In nineteen forty one…" Owen finished before looking to Ianto's face, "Bet you got some good tips from them DVDs…" he laughed.

"One more for the record," the old man who saw them out quickly walked in between Jack and Jack, he smiled as another photo was taken, "thank you." He walked off. Jade kept blinking while looking from one Jack to the other Jack.

"We better…" Jack tapped Jade's shoulder, he wanted her to move, but for a few seconds Jade was still staring lost at the man who just said his name was Jack Harkness.

Jack, the real Jack smiled, "Wait, you didn't tell me your names." He kept looking from Jade to Jack.

"Erm this is, Jadrienne…" Jack was lost for words.

"Jadrienne Chang," Jade held her hand out while looking to how Jack still seemed a little fish out of water.

Jack snapped, "Captain James Harper, seventy first." He took Jack's hand shaking it, he kept feeling like something should be ringing, he couldn't believe he was looking to the man who's name he stole for himself.

The Real Jack smiled, "well that is where I am hoping to go to next," he smiled while looking to Jade, "What's your poison Captain?"

"Maybe later, my friends and I were in the middle of something," Jack pointed, he felt like something was wrong with him being here, he couldn't stop looking from the real Jack, to Jade who was holding her bag for him to see, she kept feeling awkward now.

The real Jack smiled, "Sure," he walked away leaving Jack to take Jade by the arm and start them walking down the hall away from the Real Jack, he couldn't stop to look back, the man made his pulse race.

Walking down the corridor, Jade looked to Jack, "I've got my macbook, it's got part of the equation, if I get this half, to the half at the hub, they'll be able to open the rift and get up back through," Jade nodded.

Jack was happy, for the fact that Jade never seemed to question everything he did, he wished that for everything the real Jack hadn't been so hot, but he took Jade's hand leading her to a room.

Elena felt herself inhaled, the sounds of nothing, with random music, she felt like she was on a crazy train, she looked around, "No sign of them," she looked around. "Jack!" she heard a random pigeon fly she waved her hands, "Jade!"

"Elena, don't bother, I've got a feeling, they're not in this time," Owen said over the earpiece, he felt like it was pointless her being there.

Elena exhaled; "I'm not leaving yet," Elena now started to walk more into the building feeling like she was going to find them.

"Right so how are we going to bring them back?" Owen said while looking to the computer, he stood behind Ianto knowing what happened last time he touched it, plus the fact that Owen was being a stubborn git, since Ianto stopped him from getting a good shag, cock blocking git. "We can use Jade's information, to open the rift and bring them back."

"We can't!" Ianto snapped to Owen, he felt like he was going to be a broken record with Owen, but then he inhaled. "Jade told me one thing, don't fuck with the rift, so I am not going to fuck with it…" he now looked to Owen who was staring at him, "and I am not whipped!"

"It's gotta be somewhere!" Owen pushed Ianto out of the way, he knew that sometimes Ianto was a suck up, but right now, he was being a pain in the arse, he wanted to get them back, and Ianto was being a stupid poster boy for brown nosing a boss that wasn't here. "Where is it?"

"The other half of the equation is on Jade's Macbook…" Ianto said when Owen got up to look, Ianto sighed, "that she takes everywhere, and I mean everywhere." He sighed, "sometimes I think she loves it more than me…" he shook the thought away.

Owen smacked the table; "Shit!" then looking to Ianto, "Whipped!" he pointed while looking back to the screens.

Jade was following Jack, she paused for a moment, she knew that tone, the sound of Elena's voice calling her name, "Elena…" she whispered, but then looked to Jack as he seemed to have heard it too.

"Quick, in here," Jack said while pulling Jade into the office, he closed the door behind them while looking to the office. "Right, do what you gotta do, I'll keep look out." He suddenly kept on alert.

Jade pulling her Macbook out of the bag, she kept thinking about getting home, not that she had anything against the nineteen forties, but part of her didn't want to be here any longer than she had to be, her eyes looking over her monitor, she grunted, "Fuck, time travel and macbooks don't mix, go figure." Picking up a fountain pen, Jade found a piece of paper, the Equation on the screen, but a message telling her, her battery is low, in a very annoying voice, "Yes, I get it, you're dying, now shut up!" she couldn't believe she was yelling at her macbook, but right now, she was trying to write, "Stupid thing, I can't write with these…" she muttered.

"You're pushing too hard, relax," Jack said while standing behind her, he looked to see the macbook on it's last legs, he looked to Jade. "Relax."

Jade exhaled, "I have enough trouble writing in pencil, let alone fountain," her eyes looking to Jack's, "Can you just read me the last part…?" she focused her eyes on her writing now as Jack read her the last piece she needed, then the screen went black, and Jade snapped the Macbook closed, stroking it lightly. "Mummy will charge you when we get home." She exhaled, "I just need to get the coordinates for the dance hall, easy part over…"

"What are you doing in here?" The same creepy old man walked into the office from another door, he looked from Jade to Jack. "Who are you?" he kept looking serious.

Jack stepped from around the desk standing in front of the man looking serious, "I'm Captain James Harper," he looked down to him, and smiled, trying to keep everything friendly. "And this is Jadrienne Chang, friend and mathematician." He kept looking over the man as Jade made her way to stand behind him hugging her Macbook closer to her chest.

"I'm Bilis the manager." He looked serious business as he walked over to the desk, "you're not in full uniform Captain…" The man sounded up his own arse, it made Jack want to smack him, but cool he kept.

"On leave, forty eight hours," Jack stood beside Jade placing an arm around her, but he kept looking smug.

Jade's eyes fell on the camera, "That is a very interesting camera..." She looked up to Bilis.
He nodded, "Yes! It takes photographs instantly!" He looked excited.
"I didn't know they could do that. Yet." She tagged on a soft hint of Chinese under accent with her American one.
"And I didn't know they made an Attaché out of metal..." He stopped; the clock started chiming 10:30. "Where did you get it?" He turned back to her.
"Ah, America, I'm from there." She smiled slightly.
"I thought all the Japanese were being expropriated from America..." Bilis knew his stuff.
Jade cleared her throat, "I'm Chinese..." She trailed.
"I should go back dear, they're coming for us now." He smiled again.

Jack walked quickly with Jade out of the room, the guy was a serious creeper and he didn't want to be near him much longer.

Elena started to walk out of the building, she inhaled, "I've had a good look, but doors locked and I'm not even sure if I am going to find…." She turned to see a creepy looking man, "Oh Fuck!" she held a hand to her chest.

"Can I help you? I'm Bilis Manger, the caretaker at your service." He kept smiling to Elena; she stepped back from him slowly, her eyes looking over his carefully.

The fact was he looked like a possible sex offender, she knew karate and wasn't scared to use it, "I'm sorry, can you open it up for me, I think some of my friends go locked in," she kept her pleasant smile, her eyes looking to his, trying all she could to be nice even if her skin was crawling.

Jade followed Jack down the stairs, parts of her feared the worst, but she wasn't going to voice them, the last thing that Jack needed was more things to worry about, but she needed to know. "Why do you have his name Jack?" she knew it wasn't the other way around, so she kept looking down to the Real Jack smoking a cigarette, her eyes going to the Jack she knew. "You look like you fit in, you've been here before." She kept her voice low, not to gain too much attention, but she felt if she had some more pieces to the Jack puzzle, just a little bit of information.

"I know it's hard to explain, but I served nineteen forty one, under cover, I needed a false identity so I took his name," Jack looked down to the man, feeling like he was seeing a ghost, the one person he didn't know, but stole his whole being.

"But that must mean, he must have, he's going to die…" Jade kept looking from the Jack she knew and love to the man who's name he held, her eyes trying to remain calm in all of this, "Then what is your name?" she felt close to a prize of some sort.

Jack didn't answer her, she placed a hand on his shoulder, " and he dies tomorrow…" Jack answered the question he'd know she'd ask next, so he looked up into her eyes, and knew that for a moment he was being as open as he could allow himself to be.

"Come on," Jade touched his shoulder, she walked down the stairs, she knew that for once she needed to quiet the questions, her plan was to get coordinates. She looked to all the men telling joked, she knew how to play her best doe eyes, making her face cute and hard to say no to. "So, who's the best navigationist here?" Jade kept looking around the men feeling like she needed to keep cute.

"That would be Tom, can't flight for piss, but if he crashes, he can tell you right were he is," George really was an ass hat, Jade thought while taking the man's hand, he looked slightly annoyed with the laughter of his team.

"Can I have you for a minute?" She asked while he let her lead him away to another table, it was one of them moments where Jade felt tempted, this man was seriously cute, but thinking of Ianto, she only wanted to get back to him.

Elena walked down into the basement, she hated them felt that she needed to get this over with, but the caretaker seemed to follow her with great detail, he kept looking her over, her eyes kept focused forward with her flashlight, she wasn't quite sure what she was looking for now, all she knew was that Jade and Jack here trapped here, she just needed to work something. "So why would your friends be here?" Bilis asked, and it made Elena inhaled.

"Silly dare, all the jokes of haunting buildings, and such, just a joke," she kept nodding, maybe, just maybe he would believe her, but then she had doubts, she always knew Jack was better at talking himself out of things, she was all fingers and thumbs watching Bilis watching her.

"You looked worried dear, how about I make you a nice spot of tea…" He nodded turning around, and Elena inhaled.

She found herself following him, "If I wake up without a kidney," she stopped herself; she kept behind him feeling sick again.

Jack was listening to conversation, glancing over to Jade getting the information she needed, the fact was he kept looking to Jack, feeling like this was horror, he knew too much, yet he couldn't say a word, he couldn't change history, a lot of things he couldn't do, yet the one he kept thinking of, was enough to make the men here turn into a mob, no he wouldn't speak, but as Jack offered him another drink he smiled, "Just a water." He looked to the man heading for the bar, he then blinked seeing the front door, a woman walking in, but for a heart beat, he thought he was seeing Elena, everything, but small details were off, the fact the girl walked too timid to be Elena, her eyes looked too blue, where Elena's were Green.

Nancy walked to Jack, for the moment she first saw him, she knew he was something special, her hand reached out, "I know it's meant to be your night with the men, but I wanted to see you." She kept her voice soft, Jack could see the Real Jack placing an arm around her, then his own heart sunk, he was thinking too much, too much for himself to try and feel something for a dying man.

While Elena followed Bilis, she kept looking forward, her eyes trying to keep on this man for whatever reason she didn't trust him. His office was a mess; he held the door open, "Is anyone expecting you?"

"Yes," Elena kept her answer quick, her eyes focused on the man clocks around the office, it seemed time was a big obsession, well time pieces.

Bilis laughed, "well you better call them, don't want them thinking you've gone missing too," he kept that laugh, a laugh that made Elena shiver, "I'll go fill the kettle…" he walked away leaving Elena alone and really freaked.

Elena placed her finger on her earpiece, "Is there anything else of Jack and Jade that night?" her voice soft, she kept looking around the office.

Ianto was looking to the screen, "Nope, no more photos of them after that night, it's encouraging…"

"Unless they've gotten blown up in the blitz…" Owen added in a less than pleasant manner, it made Elena grit her teeth lightly.

"Owen, if the building is still standing, I doubt they've been blown up, so shh…!" Elena felt herself really needing to sort him out.

Owen laughed, "You just shh me?" He glanced over to Ianto, "She just shh'd me!"

Ianto snickered, "Whipped…" he whispered to Owen, "Bilis Manger, the manager, kept it for prosperity," Ianto kept looking to Owen pulling a dirty face at him.

Elena on her end walked over to a name plate, she kept looking from that to a photo on the wall, her hands brushing over the name plate, "Bilis Manger…" she repeated over, she felt light headed. "It's the same name as the care taker," she then walked over to photo of him hanging on the wall, "looks like a right pedo wearing some gay Cravat…" her voice sounding sick, she heard silence on the end of the line, she kept still. "Ianto…"

"Elena, he's in the photo with Jade and Jack," he spoke quickly; he looked over to see Owen making his way over to him.

"Elena he's moving through the rift he can help us get Jack and Jade back… Stay there and will work it out!" Owen said quickly into the earpiece.

Ianto glared, "Elena, don't trust him, get out and wait for Back up!" he then looked to Owen, "You out of your mind, we can't lose Elena, or do you really want to risk her, he could be taking us back in time one by one!"

"Elena, stay there," Owen snapped, "And don't talk about her like I don't care, but we've got to get Jade and Jack back, you remember Jade…?" Owen's words a dark hiss.

"Do you want him to take Elena back to the dark ages, or even the prehistoric times..." his eyes dead bolt, "Elena Bennett, get out there, or you could be taken back to Jane Austin time..." he was serious.
Elena swallowed, she heard the whole fight, "Fuck this shit..." she turned leaving the office.

"Not that I don't care about my girl friend, Ianto. But that could've been our only answer on finding Jack and Jade." Owen stepped away.

Elena was now listening to the argument of Ianto and Owen over her earpiece, she inhaled, "well if any of you care to know what I think of what is going on?" she asked while slowly backing towards the door, "I am going to find some clues, if Jade had the piece of the equation we need, she'd left a clue, I know Jade, she's not a dumb blonde like me…" she slowly opened the door closing it behind her feeling slightly scared for her life.

Jack looked to Jade as he stood beside her, he kept looking over the table to the girl standing at the bar with Jack, "Does that girl look a lot like Elena?" he asked Jade while she was folding up the finished equation.

"A little, why?" she then looked to Jack, well the real Jack with the woman, "someone jealous?" she joked, but felt like something was going on, then shook it off, "I just need to find a way to get these to the Hub," she started to walk forward with Jack, the girl with the bitchy attitude seemed to cut off her path.

"I've got seen you here before," the girl kept snarling at Jade, "you with him?" her face tilting to Jack, her eyes not leaving Jade's face.

Then George stepped forward, "No, why else would she have Tim bore her to death with his navigation talk…" he looked to Jade like dirt, only because she turned him down, Jade knew men were shallow, but he was taking the cake.

The girl stepping forward, "Japanese scum!" her voice hissed.

Jade laughed, "for that tash you're sporting I could have sworn you was German, and the hair under your pits…" Jade kept her voice level, "By the way, Chinese, not Japanese!" her eyes narrowed.

"What's in the bag then, Spy!" the girl reached for Jade's bag, Jade lifting her fist, if this bitch tried to touch her Macbook, she'd beat her to death, but Jack, well The real Jack stepped into stop the fight. But the Jack Jade knew held the girl back tight.

"She can't, her work is top secret, and she's a decoder…" Jack smiled to the girl. "Oh and by the way, fire your waxer…" he chuckled.

"Without girls like her, who will be helping defend our country…" He passed a glass to Jack, "To Jadrienne Chang," he held up the glass, and Jade felt her cheeks blushing over.

"Jadrienne…" People chimed in after looking to Jade while she slipped to get out of the spot light.

Her hand caught Jack, "I need Bilis Camera," she smiled, "you stay down here, I'll go and, well leave a clue for the team to find," her hand tapping his shoulder before slipping away.

"Why you off?" Jack asked the real Jack, small talk seemed to be the best thing, nothing too serious, but enough for him to find out about the guy, the man was watching him carefully.

The real Jack laughed, "I did my back in bailing out in Kent…" He went to carry on, but Jack saw the girl walking up to them.

"So that's his excuse for not dancing," she laughed looking from Jack to the man he was with, she inhaled, her eyes looked the same shape, but not colour of Elena's, "you boys don't mind if I join you?" her voice still sweet, Jack looked to the Real Jack.

"No, no problem at all," The real Jack's eyes sunk a little, but he placed his hands into Nancy's walking her to the upper leave.

Jade walked back to the office, she felt herself looking to the Camera as she placed the equation, she glanced around herself before setting the camera up over the table, snapping the photo she kept looking forward while pulling it out, "Right, now Elena, I am hoping you are smarter than you put on…" she glanced around the room seeing Bilis enter.

"It's starting to be come a habit of yours," Bilis kept looking over Jade, his eyes scanning over her body, the dress hugging her in all the right places.

Jade stepped back, she kept trying to keep him away, "I was curious about the camera," she tried to keep him away from her, she placed the photo she taken into her bag while keeping her eyes on him.

Bilis laughed, "It's a rare piece of machinery," he then looked to Jade's light cleavage, he licked his lips, "like you," he took a step forward, his eyes kept staring, Jade was on the point of near vomiting in her mouth, her feet moving to circle around him, just so she wasn't back to him, he looked like he hate sex on the brain, she wasn't going to let him touch her.

"Right," Jade pointed, "I'll just leave…" she was walking backwards to the door; she didn't want to take her eyes off him for a second.

Bilis sighed, "forgetting something?" He lifted up the equation while looking her over once more. Jade reached forward snatching it away from his hands before backing towards the door once more. "You know, I know something more interesting than taking pictures of, that aren't numbers…" he wiggled his eyebrow to her, and Jade vomited in her mouth swallowing it back quickly. "Please call again…" He watched as Jade ran from the room.

When she got to a plant pot, she let all the vomit out, she felt her stomach twist wishing that man didn't look at her like she was a piece of pie, and he wanted to help himself to a slice.

Owen rushed over to the Rift machine, he looked at the floor lifting it up, he looked inside pulling wires, he knew that something had to give, if Elena couldn't find clues then he was going to have to make something up while he went alone. "Numbers," He muttered while pulling a thick black wire up, "I can simply just mess with the rift manipulator!" he kept pulling the wire.

"Owen, even with the equation it's a risk, but doing this anything could Happen!" Ianto didn't know what he was doing, part of him would help Owen, but as much as this was going to be getting them back, it could open a can of worms they'll never be able to Close.

Owen ignore him, he got up, "They're in the middle of the Cardiff blitz," he looked to Ianto's face, "It's my duty to get them out," He started to walk away with the wire over his shoulder while knowing inside he wanted to do this.

"Owen if you do this, God know what will happen, what will come out of it!" he kept behind Owen trying to make him see sense, that didn't seem to be settling in. "Owen this is complete madness!"

"Madness." Owen laughed while looking into Ianto's eyes, "This isn't madness," he pointed in his face, "THIS IS TORCHWOOD!" He laughed madly while putting at the rift machine wires, "Maybe the rift manipulator will spit out the right numbers."

Ianto stepped back from Owen rolling his eyes, "you've been watching Three hundred way to many times…" he stepped back from Owen, "I'm going to tell Elena…" he kept stepping back.

"Oh, just like Ianto, run to mummy, run behind Elena and hope she takes your side and not mine," Owen ignored Ianto's threat, he didn't want to believe that Elena would chose Ianto's side over his.

While walking away from the madness, he tried to contact Elena, but froze listening to Owen starting, but something stopped. "Shit!" Owen was trying to keep himself calm, then looked around, "It's not working…"

"No, it's a good thing, Jack and Jade wouldn't want the rift machine to be used this way…" he then looked to Owen who wasn't taking no for an answer.

Owen was ignoring him, he looked around, "there is a piece missing," he inhaled while looking to a place where something should have been. "We've got to find it!" he moved away from the machine feeling Ianto's hand grabbing it arm. "Ianto, you always play it, safe and boring. Well you know what happens to all the Asians in World War Two? Not just the Japanese, they get exiled and mostly die out... And the ones that don't, usually have so much trauma they don't wanna live." He stood to his full height, "So even if Jade does survive... You'll probably never see her again." He snapped.

Ianto felt frozen, he couldn't think what to say or do, but his eye looked to Owen's scared of what he was thinking, but then exhaled. "I don't want to bring her back to this time when you've set god knows what free!"

The real Jack was sitting at the table, he looked from Nancy to James, he inhaled looking to Nancy again, "I should get you another drink," He got to his feet walking away.

Jack kept looking from Jack, back to Nancy, "I'm sorry, he didn't…"

Nancy laughed, "He was never much for introductions," she smiled, but while Jack watched that smile, he nodded, "I'm Nancy, and you are?" she asked feeling her eyes studying over them dazzling blue eyes.

"Captain James Harper," Jack said while looking to the bar where Jack was, he glanced to Nancy's first drink that she didn't really touch, he inhaled, "Are you alright? You look a little pale." He kept focused.

"I'm fine, just, a lot on my plate right now," she twirled the drink, bringing it to her lips she took only the tiniest sip looking around the hall feeling the burden she had to bare, she wasn't meant to be here, but she kept hoping to tell Jack tonight, maybe he wouldn't rush off and leave her if he knew. "He's just stressed about tomorrow…" her voice light while Jack placed a drink in front of Nancy, he looked into her eyes.

Jack glanced from the real Jack to the girl who he was keeping at arms length, but when Nancy watched him looking to James, "So where is your next Mission?" His face lighting up, and Nancy didn't like the feeling in her stomach.

"I've got to use the restroom," quick to her feet, she glanced to James and hoped for everything she couldn't look to how Jack was looking to this man who'd just walked into his life but seemed to make Jack smile more than she had the weeks she'd known him.

Jack went to get to his feet to stop the girl walking away from the Real Jack, "Is she going to be okay?"

"James, she's a woman, they all act like it doesn't bother them," he looked into James eyes, but the sirens caught them off guard, he kept serious. He knew that he wasn't meant to look at another man like that.

"Everyone to the basement!" Bilis called while waving his hands, he kept looking to the people starting to follow him, he kept his face clear, he knew that nothing would happen, but he loved the feeling when he'd put people into a panic for nothing, but the sounds of bombs made everything more intense.

Owen found his jacket, his bag, he ran to the hub door while thinking about it clear enough. "Where are you going?" Ianto asked while looking to Owen leaving, but he kept looking over the rift machine and Owen again.

"Elena, on her own," he sighed, "I am going to help her, you know don't need me here since there is nothing you'd rather do than sit around looking for evidence of Jade in the pass…" he inhaled while walking away from Ianto out the door, he wanted to be able to really go and find out anything he could on Bilis and how he could help them.

Elena stepped out of the building; she kept looking around the area, her eyes scanning, if she was Jade, where would she put a clue. Catching something walk passed her, she turned on her heels while following the street along the side of the building, she felt her eyes going to a padlock on the floor, and she walked over. Leaning down she found herself picking up the photo in a plastic sleeve, she inhaled, "Ianto I have the second part of the equation," she inhaled while telling him carefully, she kept looking to the piece of paper, she kept glancing around herself feeling nervous.

"Elena," Ianto said into the earpiece, "There is still some parts missing," He said thinking about what Owen was doing he kept looking around the hub. "Owen will be with you soon…"

"Right Ianto," she got to her feet turning around see Owen jumping with her hand to her chest, "Jesus Owen, scare the hell out of me…" she stepped back while looking him over.

"Sorry," Owen looked over Elena's eyes, for a moment he wondered if she would really chose his side over Ianto. Leaning forward he lightly kissed her, "you alright?" he asked with a look over her.

Elena nodded; she brushed her hand down his arm, "I'm fine, just a little spooked," she kept looking over Owen, "Are you okay?" she asked him stepping closer to Owen, she started to know when her team members were hiding something from her.

For a few seconds Owen glanced over her eyes, he leaned forward kissing her again, this time holding onto the moment, Elena closed her eyes taking in the kiss, watching Owen let go, "Can you just tell me where Bilis's office?" he asked her while brushing his hand against her cheek.

"Whoa, Owen," Elena laughed, "Erm, yeah, it's in there, up the stairs, down a hall, first right," she nodded, "also, still date night tonight?" she asked while he stepped away from her.

Owen turned back to her, "Seven, your place, and I'll bring the camera," he winked before rushing off leaving Elena standing on her own.

Jade rushed back into the building, she felt her eyes going around the outside of the building, she wondered if Elena would find that piece, but getting inside she felt herself looking around for the face she knew more than any other face in her life.

"Jade!" Her eyes snapped to see Jack looking for her; she rushed to him, feeling his arm wrap around her while keeping her still against him. "Jade did you do it?" he asked her while guarding her against people rushing to get to the basement.

Jade shock her head, "No, I missed a part, but I am hoping that I can get one more clue to give to the team." She inhaled feeling Jack taking her down into the basement, she looked around then seeing The Real Jack, he was standing with a woman, she blinked a few times, "Jack, is it me, or that woman looks like Elena?" Jade felt strange really seeing the girl now.

Jack nodded, "It's not just me then," He shook it off; he glanced over to Nancy standing with the real Jack. "What you need?" he asked finally snapping into what was important, getting back to their time.

Jade nodded, "Right, I just need to find a place to write these," she kept looking to Jack while he lead her to a quiet corner, he looked to Jade, "Just do what you have to do to make sure no one comes here…" quickly turning around while hoping to be able to look for something, anything, she looked in cupboards and looking for something that can keep something in time for a long time.

Nancy felt her hands holding onto Jack, her eyes looking up to his, but he wasn't looking back, she felt like something was missing, this was terrifying, but instead of consoling her, he was watching Him, her eyes going to James before looking back to Jack. "I don't know what I'd do without you…" she whispered holding herself close to his chest, his arm was around her, but she didn't feel him holding her. "Jack…" her voice light, "I…" she could see he wasn't paying her any attention.

"Yes Nancy?" He asked, he felt her moving out of his arms, she looked up to him, he could feel the pain he was inflicting on her. Jack kept looking from James, back down to Nancy.

Nancy exhaled, "Never mind…" her voice had a bitter tone to it, she walked over to a box, she sat down brushing her hands down her stomach with a tear in her eye wondering how she was going to get out of this mess.

Find a tin can of coffee, she empty out the coffee, her eyes kept looking around to make sure everything was good, she kept inhaling, pressing the metal against the palm of her hand, with a grit of her teeth, she felt it cut into her.

Finally picking up her Apple program leaflet, she dipped her pencil into the blood polling in her hands, she glanced from the writing of the equations, she write them down in her blood while looking around, finally writing a message in her blood, she exhaled placing the piece of paper into the coffee can feeling better about putting it back into the cupboard, getting to her feet she headed back.

The band had moved down, a woman singing a song to try and calm the people down, it wasn't hard to see that everyone huddled together worried. Jack kept the look out; he turned to see that the real Jack was standing right behind him, "Of course I'm scared." He answered Jack's question he asked before, he looked to the man, the man that stirred so much inside him.

Jack on the other hand was looking over to Nancy sitting alone, "She cares a lot for you," Jack kept his tone as light as he could, "you're a lucky man…"

"Or so I've been told," Jack glanced to Nancy and back to James, he kept thinking about the night with her only two weeks ago, he remembered every moment of it, but it didn't feel right in his heart, now he was going to have to break her heat, it wasn't something he wanted to end up doing.

"Fuck that was painful…" Jade paused, her eyes going to the real Jack holding her hand looking nervous. "I feel over…" she looked to her hand.

"Suck language on a young lady," Jack looked to Jade, he nodded, "I hope you're alright," he added while looking to James.

"May the dancing, continue!" Bilis called, he waved his arms around with an expression on his face, of a man who had just reached a climax in his pants.

Tim walked forward, he looked to Jade, "I have a first aid kit in the van, I can help you…" he kept looking to her with a calming smile, he thought she was really pretty as he held an open hand to her.

"Thank you," Jade went with the man, she smiled to Jack hoping that this wasn't going to be their life from now on, it was scary to think she might not ever see Ianto again, it made her upset, but she knew she needed to keep a brave face on.

Jack nodded to the Real Jack, "well, lets go have some fun while we still can," he kept trying to remember that this man wasn't going to make it to next week.

"Scotch, Captain?" George asked the real Jack while he avoided to the other man, he didn't like him, didn't trust him.

The real Jack exhaled, "I'd like some time to talk alone with Captain Harper…" He looked to George was going away from them leaving the two men alone.

Elena started to walk towards the corridor, she felt her hands brushing down her hair, she kept thinking about an idea where the rest of the way that is when she saw Owen, "Hey," she smiled while looking him over.

Owen paused, "nothing in the office, I thought I'd go," he pointed to the door, "Go Help Ianto you know how helpless he is without a hand to hold…" he paused.

"Holding Hands with Ianto now are we…" She smiled while looking to Owen with a wiggle of her eyebrow.

"No, idea…" Owen looked to Elena pointed, "Don't get any ideas…" he laughed walking to her, he kept looking to Elena.

Elena nodded, she brushed her hand down his arm, "I'm going to check the basement," she added while looking into Owen's with a small smile, she let his arm go. "Drive safe…"

"I will, be careful," Owen kissed her cheek before rushing off, and Elena inhaled heading for the basement, she didn't like them, she got freaky feelings as she got to the basement seeing everything, she walked around pulling open cabinets, she kept looking around hearing music again, she paused glancing behind herself, she knew that she needed to find something soon enough.

Elena was in the basement, she was looking around, "I am Jade..." she closed her eyes, "Well," she closed her eyes. "I am part Chinese, I love apple products, Ianto is sexy," she then walked into the back finding the cupboard.

"Elena, you know I can hear you!" Ianto said with a laugh.

Then the tin can, she opened it, her eyes looking over the dark black writing, but it seemed to be dried blood, "Ianto," Elena said, "I found the other part..." she talk the numbers.
"No, Elena thee is still missing." he inhaled, and Elena exhaled.
Elena brushed her hand into her hair, "Ianto there is more," she whispered, "Leave a light on, Ianto what does that mean?" her voice confused.
"She's," Ianto sucked in a breathe, "She's coming home..." he tried to calm himself.

Owen walked behind Ianto, he looked over the man, finally exhaling, "It's time to understand what I am going to doing."

Jack sat at the table, he kept looking to the man, the one who's eyes kept finding his own, "you need to find her, be a part of her," he looked worried, "Don't leave anything, live tonight like it was your last night." Jack kept his words passionate.

"What makes you say these things?" Jack kept looking to James; feeling like he was going to have something was there. "I don't understand." Jack kept his voice smooth, but with James eyes he felt scared of what he feels.

"Go to your woman, lose yourself in her," Jack kept his voice serious to the real Jack, it was so much for him to know that he was going to be able to build himself to help the man.

The Real Jack, "Is Jade your woman?" He asked serious.

Jack exhaled, "no, she's promised to another man," He kept looking over the man, "Go to your woman, and don't look back to anything."

"Maybe I should go then!" Jack stepped up, he kept looking to James wanting to have him change his mind, but the man stood there while feeling like he was going to fall into this man.

Jack watched as the Real Jack got to his feet, he let him walk away, the feeling of everything pulling him into depression, but he wasn't going to let it take over him, he glanced to see that Jack had caught up with Nancy.

Jack caught up with Nancy while she was putting her coat on to leave, "Nancy," He spoke her name so soft, he kept looking to her, feeling worse for everything he had to say to her.

"Jack, I didn't think you would miss Me." She whispered while looking to him. Nancy blinked, she didn't like the tone, "Jack, I love you, and it's not just the sex, it's you," she whispered, "I have never loved anyone like you, never will..." she inhaled looking up at him.

"I'm sorry," Jack said to Nancy, he kept looking to her, his hand touching her face, "but I don't love you," he kept looking, "Nancy you need to forget about me…" He felt a hand slap around his face.

"You Coward!" Nancy pointed into his face looking angry, "you're nothing but a no good yank who's a coward!" her tears falling down her cheeks, "My father was right about you…" she turned around running away from Jack. She ran before crashing into someone. "I'm so sorry…" she spoke to the Chinese girl.

Owen walked over to the rift machine again, he started to set it up, his eyes focused, this time he wasn't going to give up, so he kept his ignoring Ianto behind him clucking like an old hen. "It's won't work, there is still a piece missing…." Ianto kept looking to the machine.

"Was a piece missing," Owen took the piece of metal from his jacket, he kept thinking about doing something about it, but now he looked smug.

Ianto inhaled, "your still missing parts of the Equation," He looked to Owen, he needed to push the man into understanding his action.

"Maybe the rift machine will work them out!" He turned it on, the machine made a few noises, but he glanced to it, and back to Ianto, this wasn't going to end here, so he quickly headed for Jack's office, he kept on his feet while pulling paper away, he looked around, knew Ianto was going to follow him. "The key isn't enough, there must be something in the safe we've got to figure it out…"

"Jack wouldn't want you to go in the safe, you have no right!" Ianto spat to Owen, this was getting out of hand, and he didn't like it anymore.

Owen's eyes snapped up to Ianto, "I am second in command, I have every fucking right!" Owen kept trying to find the combination to the safe, for a moment he kept looking to Ianto who was staring at him.

Ianto inhaled, "There is stuff in there that is secret and that is the way Jack likes it!" his eyes very looking to Owen feeling like the yelling wasn't going to stop him, it was getting there no where.

"I'm not going to play with his toys Ianto, you sure it's Jade you love, and Not Jack!" Owen kept feeling pissed off, he found the right combination, he walked over to the safe opening it up, and he ignored Ianto once more, knowing that he was going to all he could to bring them back.

Ianto kept watching Owen while he was taking things out of the safe, he was looking to everything, and Ianto didn't like it, but now was trying to keep everything together. The Owen took out blue prints.

"To the rift Machine," He kept looking to Ianto as Ianto ran, so Owen started to run after him.

Jade glanced into blue eyes, the woman seemed like Elena, but not like her at all, "It's okay," Jade glanced up, she felt the girl breaking down into tears again. Jade exhaled, she kept feeling bad for the woman. "Can I help you?" she asked with a small title of her head watching Nancy.

Nancy shook her head, "I called him a coward, when I was the one who couldn't tell him the truth," her eyes glancing over Jade's, "and here I am sobbing to a complete stranger, can you turn back time?"

Jade shook her head, "That's silly, no one can do that," Jade felt like she had something in common with this woman, but her eyes going over Nancy. "When are you due?" she asked the girl, she hoped she had it right.

"I'm only a few weeks, I'm not even sure, I'm in so much trouble," her eyes going over Jade's, "I don't know what I'm going to do…."

"You'll be fine," Jade touched the girls arm, she looked up with Nancy, it was lovers corner, you could only see heads, but even Jade knew who they were. "I've…" she started to walk away.

Jack kept still he looked to the Real Jack joining him, the man sat down, and Jack felt his heart beating faster, "I thought you was going to go?" Jack asked the real Jack feeling scared.

"You said I had to enjoy my night, and I am where I want to be…" Jack sat with James; he felt his eyes looking into the man, but for a second.

"You know I might be gone before the night is over…" Jack said in all seriousness.

The Real Jack smiled, "The we better make the most of now." he was going to give in, he hand moved down, the gap in between James fingers his went, he looked into the eyes deeper moving closer.

George and a random girl appeared, the laugh made the two of them breaking apart, it was hard to keep his face the way it was, "Do mind if we use lovers corner boys…" The girl smiled with a need to be alone with George.

"Yeah, I was just talking strategy with the Captain," Jack kept looking to James feeling nervous, what did they see, what were they thinking.

Jack smiled to the real Jack, " We can carry it on somewhere else," He smiled, but that smile faded when the real Jack backed away.

"No!" the real Jack snapped, he needed to run, run far, he walked passed Jade as she walked up the stairs looking to the real Jack and her Jack, "His told me everything I need to know…" he kept walking before Jack looked dumbfounded, and Jade walk to his side before Jack lead them down to the dance hall again, finding a table to sit alone.

Owen pulled on end of the blue prints, Ianto was pulling the other end, it was like being five on the playground fighting over something, he kept looking Ianto, "Let go!" he snapped while kept pulling it.

"You let Go!" Ianto snapped while pulling his end as much as he could, he kept hold on his end tighter, but it slipped from his fingers while looking to Owen.

"Ianto this isn't some act of Madness," He looked down, "this is the instructions!" he kept serious.

"Owen, it's a trap, what if Bilis wanted you to find that?" Ianto asked while looking with the fact he didn't want this, as much as he missed Jade, he couldn't risk the world, but then Owen was going into complete madness now. "What if he wants to provoke the rift, to create total Chaos, complete Destruction," Ianto kept yelling, "what if this is what Bilis wants all along!"

Owen felt himself getting upset, "I am sick of being the bitch, I am sick of Jack and his secrets we don't even know who he is!" he pointed out, "Gwen and Tosh died for him, Jade is trapped in time with him, and Elena is running around a building looking for Clues that are not there," Owen felt upset, "I've had enough Ianto…"

"He's our leader…" Ianto whispered while watching him.

Owen turned away looking serious again, "not anymore!" He finally pushed past Ianto but Ianto grabbed him, he felt like he was trying to stop him, he was going to give Ianto a fight.

Ianto pulled Owen to the floor, he grabbed him, pulled his arms, he was holding Owen, but an elbow to the ribs stopped Ianto, he felt Owen getting his feet, he grabbed the blue prints before he gave Ianto a kick to the stomach, he inhaled, but Ianto sob while exhaling a cry feeling lost.

Jack sat at a table, he looked to Jade, they didn't need to say the fear, the fact was clear, they were here, they were not going anywhere, and Jack was holding Jade's hand, "I'll look after you." he whispered, he looked into her eyes, knowing this was it, the fact was he was scared. "So, Elena's grandmother..." he looked to Jade, "What would you think Elena will think of that?" he spoke it, it was like they were never going to see them again.

That fact Jade could tell to some extent Jack was scared, made her a little nervous but it didn't show, she knew what ever happened, but she'd be okay.
Before she could answer she looked up seeing Real Jack walking over toward their table. "Have fun." She whispered before Jack strolled up to John, his hand taking his free hand pulling him up from the table.

Jack felt the real Jack leading him to the dance floor, he kept himself together, the room was going quiet, but kept looking to the floor, the man, he was in his arms and feeling the moment while looking to that was going to be a moment.

Ianto got to his feet, he felt the gun in his hand, the last resort, the last line, but while he pointed it to Owen, "This is your last warning," He kept watching Owen, he felt the tears falling down his face, he knew it was going to mean a lot after this, it was the fear he had for too long. "I mean it…"

Owen glanced to Ianto, he was nearly finished with what he had to do, and he glanced to Ianto. "Don't be silly Tea Boy, you really won't stop me with that…" he went back to the machine.

Ianto clicked the gun back, "I mean it Owen, I am not afraid to shot…" he kept thinking about what he was going to have to do.

"That thing took my Captain, he took your love, the woman you said you can't live without, maybe you should think about that, and what ever you do to me, I know I died in the line of duty!" He then reached in turning it on again. He put the Key onto the plate, but the ring of the gun shot rocked through Owen, he felt the pain, but used the strength in his arm to place the key down right while the rift machine went into action, but he fell down holding the gunshot wound, he felt burning running through his shoulder, but he knew he won.

"You don't know what you've just done!" Ianto looked to the machine in confusion, he didn't know what was going to happen now, and it was going to be completely crazy from now on.

The dance felt everything he needed it to be, Jack kept looking to the Real Jack, he looked into his eyes, for a moment he felt the passion flowing through him, he kept looking back, he could see Nancy, her mouth wide, but she ran, and it was just Jack and Jack on the dance floor now with everyone staring.

Finally a blue light flashed, the whole place was lit up, and Jade got to her feet, she knew what this meant.

Jade tried ignoring the blue light that seemingly got brighter upon its ignorance. Standing she picked up Jack's coat from the chair it was left on.
"...Jack..." She didn't want to ruin the moment that cause tears in her eyes, the light was like a warm mist, "I won't blame you if you don't come, but we do need you..." Her voice it had been nothing more than a whisper.

Jack looked to Jack, the man whose name he stole, the man who won't live passed tomorrow, and now he was going to walk out and leave him behind.
Jack inhaled, "One moment J!" he rushed into Jack's arms, he pressed his lips to the man, kissed him rough, he wanted to feel him, making the kiss burn, a passion Jack had never thought he could ever fill, won't feel after this moment, the room melted away, it was the feeling of it, and letting go Jack walked towards Jade taking her hand, looking back as Jack saluted him, and the room faded and they were back in the modern time.

Elena was sat in her car, she'd not heard anything from Ianto or Owen, she kept looking to the building not knowing what was going to happen, but seeing a door open, she felt scared, but suddenly seeing Jack and Jade she felt herself rushing from her car, she ran quickly to her captain jumping into his arms, he swung her holding her tight.

Jade stood watching the reaction of Elena with Jack; he kept looking into her eyes, "Elena," for a second he felt something in her, but pushed it away.

Elena let go of Jack running to Jade, "I'm so happy to see you," Elena let the girl go and felt better about the team being all together.

Jade kept looking to Elena, "I know I never said it before, but I want to tell you how Sorry I am…" Jade kept looking to the other woman.

Elena laughed, "Erm, okay…" she brushed her hands into her hair while turning around to look at Jack. "You two alright…?" she asked feeling freaked out lightly.

Walking into the Hub, Elena could see Owen sitting with padding on his shoulder, "what the hell happened?" Elena walked to Owen, her eyes going to Ianto, then back to Owen, "What, happened?"

Owen kept looking to Elena, "He shot me," then from glaring to Ianto, his hand touched Elena's arm, "you're lucky, he's a shit aim."

"I was aiming for your shoulder!" Ianto snapped while ignoring the fact that Elena turned up on her own, but the sound of Jack and Jade entering the hub, he knew that he had to explain what happened.

Jack didn't stop, Jade followed him into his office, he reached over getting a bottle of brandy and two glasses, "you know, he would have been so proud of you taking his name," Jade kept her voice even while Jack handed her a glass.

"I hope so," Jack now placed his glass in the air, "To Captain Jack Harkness…" He nodded while looking to Jade.

"To Jack," She brought the drink to her lips, for a day, she felt for once she was getting closer to her captain, her boss, and most of all her best friend.
