The hub was very quiet, the three remaining Torchwood members hardly spoke to each other that morning. No coffee was handed out and no smart insults had been passed about. Gwen and Tosh were checking the homes of Owen and Ianto. "There's no sign of a break in and both doors were left unlocked..." Gwen relayed to Jack, whom stayed at the hub.

The three later gathered and discussed what their next course of action would be.

"We need to stick to the plan.." Jack said sadly.

"Jack, you can not be serious? You know he can't be trusted..." Tosh argued.

"I've known him a long time... he just..." Jack didn't know.

Gwen interupted "You should never have made that deal... What is Ianto goi-"

"Ianto will forgive me.. He will understand I am doing this for his safety.." Jack looked at Tosh "... And Owens.."

"So thats it?" Gwen had a bad feeling

"We stick to the plan.. he will likely shoot anyone that gets in his way.."

"Jack, we need to look at all possibilities..."

"How did he get them? What made them just leave? did they fight him?" Jack had a thousand questions "What did we learn today?"

"No signs of a break in. No signs of a struggle. No sign of Ianto or Owen locking their doors." Gwen repeated.

"He must have had them at gun point" Tosh observed.

"But it's not right. Owen would still have faught"

"Not if John had Ianto first..."

"Okay... It's a start..." Jack went over the only knowledge they had "... So he grabbed Ianto first... Why?..."

"Because..." Gwen tried to come up with a theory. "...Because Owen would fight back... He went to Ianto first because Ianto would be caught off guard more... he could then-"

Tosh interrupted "He could then use Ianto against Owen. Making Owen come quietly."

The remaining team members continued to work on the little knowledge they had.

Meanwhile, Ianto was shaking with anger and fear, John grabbed roughly at the young welshman and dragged him closer to the sleeping doctor.

"Eye Candy, I have to punish you now... you broke my stuff, you got out, you attempted to release my prisoner and you tried to escape..."

"And I'll do it all again at the next opportunity..."

"I'm about to make you think twice at the next opportunity...Get up.."

John reached for Iantos shirt to drag the young man to his feet, Ianto held his hands up, defensively, awaiting John to strike him. He did. John threw Ianto in front of Owen. "Get up and escape...thats what you want..." Ianto got to his feet, he felt winded. John was confident he would defeat the Welshman easily. Ianto figured he had nothing to lose, he tackled John. He reached for Johns gun pulling it from his holster, John knocked it from his hands as Ianto landed a punch to Johns face with a free hand. The gun sliding across the cement floor, Ianto ran for the gun sliding down next to it and quickly raising it to John, he pulled the trigger.

But no shot was fired, Iantos stomach churned, he looked to John hoping he hadn't cocked the gun right, he aimed at Johns shoulder and pulled the trigger again, but Ianto knew John looked too calm, he made his way over to Ianto.

"You really thought I'd have a loaded gun on me... without handcuffs on you?"

"Didn't realise you were that threatened by me, I feel touched..."

"I hear the feeling is mutual..." John smiled. "... You are going to feel more than touched very soon..."

Ianto knew he was outmatched, he knew he would be back in cuffs, he knew he was about to suffer a worse beating that what he would have. 'I guess... It was worth it...' Johns nose was bleeding. '...definitely worth it...' Ianto prepared for one last brawl, he decided he wasn't going to give up, even if it killed him.

Ianto swung at John with hopes of making more than his nose bleed, effortlessly John stopped the blow and delivered his own, Ianto was tossed around like a doll as John delivered a few good shots to keep Ianto still. Ianto hardly had energy to stand, he collapsed as John threw Iantos battered body in front of the Doctor, to show off his work. Ianto vomitted in pain and he awaited death.

They didn't hear Owen stir, it was unsure when he had woken, but he watched helplessly as John released his anger out on Ianto. "Get up Eye-Candy.." Johns words fell on deaf ears, Ianto ignored him he just lay there exhausted. "..Get up and escape...Get up!" Ianto rolled onto his stomache and tried to raise himself to keep fighting, he simply didn't have the strength as his body fell to the floor, defeated.

"Still think he'll try that again, doctor? or do you think he's learnt his lesson?" Owen turned his head away. "Nothing? for the first time ... You have nothing to say?" John walked to Iantos beaten body

"Leave him..."Owen begged, John could hear defeat in Owens voice.

"You forgot to say please..." John leaned down to Ianto, who was still conscious "Don't ever try to escape, Don't ever hit me and Don't tell me 'No'.." John painfully dragged Iantos body to the chair near Owen and fastened him in place. "Maybe the two of you can exchange stories for a bit...I'm getting supplies..." John smiled. He left the room.

Ianto could barely hold his head up, every inch of him ached, including his pride. His memories were filling of the ectasy between him and John a mere hour ago. Owen's thoughts were of the night before. 'Ianto's lucky to still be breathing...' Owen sighed "Do we even have a plan?" Ianto didn't know how to reply. "Because... we have to try and survive at least three more days with this fucking pirate..."

"I don't know... We haven't got a lot of choices..." Ianto coughed.

"How did you get free?"

"the bed wasn't welded right, i ..." Iantos vision was blurry ".. I pulled the bar off..." Ianto coughed painfully

"can't believe he didn't have bullets.. huh.." Owen attempted to joke to lift his friends spirits.

Ianto laughed "ah...yeah... " Iantos eyes began to flicker close, he was on the verge of passing out.

"Ianto?... are you alright?"

"no.. we're not going to survive are we..." Ianto sounded drunk as he struggled to breathe.

"...we'll survive.."

"I've never wanted to cry so bad in all my life...haha...Owen..."

"we'll survive this...Ianto... Ianto?" Ianto had passed out. Owen wriggled attempting to free his hands.

Several hours later, John reappeared. "Is Eye-Candy even breathing?... I brought food..."

"what's in it?" Owen snapped, John smiled

"Oh, that would be too easy... and easy is boring... " John held up a a familiar drug, though it was light blue.

"...do you want to go another round? he's out.. He won't know" Owen shook his head in disbelief.

"fuck off..." Owen said sternly.

"I had a few really good ideas...Party games... want me to share them with you.."

"I'm really not interested..."

"you know... I should have told Jack next Thursday... we could surprise him..."

"What are you after? Why are you doing this? This can't be all about Jack?"

"oh.. But it is..."

"How is he so important?"

"He is a person of great interest"

"To you maybe" Owen sighed.

"To Eye-Candy too apparently..."

"is that whats its all really about? You hate Ianto so much because of Jack? Pathetic.."

"i don't hate him... He's cute...useful...That's why I'm trading you for Jack... and keeping him here..."

"wai- What!? What's the point!?" Owen didn't like what he was hearing.

"Think about it.. Jack will do whatever I ask... to save his precious tea boy..." John peered over the passed out Ianto.

"What are you going to do to Jack?"

"I have my orders Doctor... "

"orders?..." Owen shifted in his chair.

"Tell me Doctor... If I asked Jack to shoot you...do you think he would do it?" The scenario was a bit close for comfort. "You want to say no, but you know he would if he had to. to save him"

"You're... insane..."

"yeah.. But that was the deal we made..."

"What deal?"

"Jack and I... I said.. I'd let you go in exchange for him.. i don't recall telling Jack I'd let Eye Candy go.. do you?"

"You also promised you wouldn't hurt us"

John laughed. "A minor set back, don't worry though, he'll be okay..."

"Okay!? from what I can tell, he likely has a broken rib and the bruising, he is struggling to breathe John!"

"I'll be disappointed if only one rib is broken..."

"You sick..."

"Ah, Now doctor... I wish you would watch your language..."

John grabbed Owens chair, turning him to look directly at Ianto. Owen could see all the damage that had been caused. John took the protective sheet off the drug and stuck the shiny sticker to the broken man before him.

"What are you doing to him?"

"Just watch...the affects vary depending on the injuries..."

Owen was beside himself, slowly the cuts had healed, the swelling had gone down and Owen assumed any broken bones were healing. Owen thought of the endless posibilities if he could study the drug. when he looked at the drug, he noticed the colour had faded. John watched quietly before releasing one of Owens hands.

"Check him for yourself"

Owen reached out to check Iantos pulse and breathing, even though he was still healing, everything seemed normal.

"How does it work?"

"It doesn't matter... fact is, it works... Eye-Candy is as good as new again..."

John ran his hand down Owens chest.

"Get the fuck off me" Owen grabbed Johns hand.

"I have an important schedule to keep doctor..." John played with Owens chest as Owen tried to move him away. John took hold of Owens free hand, locking back in place.

"Stop!" Owen growled.

John went straight for the goods, pulling Owens soft penis from his pants. Owens struggles were useless.

"No!...Don't!"

"Shhh...You'll wake Eye Candy"

Owens eyes shot forward at Ianto who was passed out and within arms length. he didn't want Ianto to see him, not like this.

"This is going to happen.." John started playing with the doctors piece. "..And you'll keep quiet unless you want an audience..."

"Don't." Owen whispered. John nuzzled Owens neck.

"Tell me again that you don't want this... because your body tells me a different story..."

"..fuck you..." Owen growlled quietly as his body betrayed him once again.

"doctor... say it like you mean it..." John smirked he continued sucking at Owens neck. "... Maybe we could wake him..."

"No!"

"Shhh...I'm sure he gives good oral" John chuckled.

"why are you doing this?" Owen squirmed, he looked at Ianto terrified he might wake.

"I want to apologize for last night..." John whispered as he grabbed Owens ear with his teeth. "...I want to make up for leaving so quickly..."

John bit into Owens neck once more making Owen call out. "You taste so good..." John stood up and circled the bound Englishman, his cock twitched as it hung out of his pants. "Sure you don't want me to wake him?" John stood behind Ianto.

"Uh!... No... Please..." Owen felt like his heart was going to come through his chest, he continued to beg John to move away from Ianto "Please...don't..."

"I could make him go into a deeper sleep?" John held out the same dark blue drug that read: Sleep.

"wai..." Owen couldn't think straight, he couldn't be responsible for Ianto being drugged into a deep sleep but he knew this was going to happen, he didn't want Ianto, inches from his face to wake up at any moment this would happen. Ianto had recovered right in front of his eyes, but Owen didn't know these drugs, he didn't know if they were really safe. "N...I don't..." Owen shook his head "No.."

"No? you like live dangerously... what if he wakes up?" Owen didn't know what to think. John put the drug away, positioning himself between the captives and dropped to his knees, Owen felt weak as John took him into his mouth. Owen moaned, a little louder than even he had expected.

Owen could feel his lip shaking and John expertly teased his ready cock straight to the edge before slowly letting him go. John could hear Owen moaning quietly and wondered how quiet he would stay.

"Oh.. God..." Owen trembled, he had to admit, John did give good oral as he felt his whole body burning.

"Keep going?" John asked innocently.

Owen nodded. John teased Owen, taking him closer to the edge and not letting him cum.

"Tell me what you want, doctor"

"Keep going... Make me cum..."

"I could get Eye Candy to help?" Alarm bells rang off in Owens head.

"No... Don't..." he growlled weakly.

"If Eye Candy wakes up... do you still want to come?" Owen didn't answer. John let go of Owens cock and walked around the back of Owen, he reached around to Owen cock, gripping him, massaging his throbbing piece. Owen didn't take his eyes from John "I need to hear you say it..." John purred into Owens ear. "What do I do if he wakes up? Keep going? or stop?" he brought Owen to the edge once more and Owen begged him to finish him. "Shh...What do you want?"

"Keep going..."

"Say please..."

"Please...keep going..."

"I'm going to make you cum soon... but not just yet... I want to kiss you Doctor..."

Owen moaned in protest. John made his way to Owens face. Owen pulled away. John rested his head on Owens and whispered to him.

"I could leave you... like this... "

"No..."

"Kiss me... do it... and you can cum..."

John pushed his lips to Owen as he did John grabbed Owens piece once again stroking it wildly, Owens moans were just as wild. John took advantage of Owens state, kissing him for what seemed like forever.

"Good boy..." John let go of Owen and kneeled in front of him for the last time.

"Oh God... just do it... please..."

"You can nearly cum... we are nearly there..." John watched Owen carefully, he didn't take Owen in his mouth straight away, he nipped and sucked around it, Owen tilted his head back trying to keep his moaning quiet.

Owen had done a dangerous thing, he'd taken his eyes off John. Owen didn't notice Johns wandering hands, reaching behind him, to a peace Tea Boy, he ran his hand along Iantos leg, in a quiet attempt to wake him.

John was successful.

"Do you want to cum?" John asked sternly.

"Yes..."

"beg me for it.."

"Please.. Let me fucking cum..."

"Beg me... Say my name..."

"Jesus... John... Fucking let me cum"

John took Owen in his mouth, Owen was enriched with ectasy. Iantos heart started to race immediately, Ianto felt frozen his eyes wide and glued on Owen. John knew exactly what he was doing, he brought Owen to the edge.

"Look at me doctor... I want to see your pretty face..."

Owen's eyes cracked open and locked on to Ianto's, who was staring at him with wide eyes.

"..no.."

All his fears had met him as he went over the edge, milky white stripes shooting out at John.
