Hey people! I decided to give you guys this next part, you'll find out what happens to Ianto andwhat happened to Owen, enjoy!
"Jack, the TARDIS is a very powerful and complex machine. Do you really think I would let someone that important to you die?" Gwen and Tosh exchanged a confused look but before either could say anything Jack was bursting into the TARDIS and kneeling next to Martha and Owen.
"Don't worry, he'll live." Martha told him, "He's strong. Four shots, left shoulder, left waist, right upper arm and right thigh." Martha looked at Jack quickly before going back to work on Ianto. "Owen says he was shot top to bottom, left, right, left, right. When you're hit on one side you tend to curl around it, leaving the other side more open to getting shot. I don't think the aliens meant to kill him, none of his vital organs were hit, and the bullets mostly missed the bone. I think the aliens meant to injure him just enough so they had time to get away. That didn't work too well did it?" Jack didn't respond to her, "Jack?"
"No it didn't." Jack's eyes were wide and searching Ianto's face for a sign of life.
"He lost a lot of blood so he'll be pretty weak," Owen told him.
"It's your bloody fault he got shot!" Jack quickly stood and shoved Owen against a beam, "if you didn't attack him he would've dropped soon enough!" Jack roared,
"Jack!" Martha cried, but she had to take care of Ianto and couldn't do anything.
"You were going to kill him! I heard you! You nearly killed him and I don't know what got into you but I'll sure as hell kill it!" Jack shoved Owen against the wall even harder, before a pair of hands drew him back.
"Calm down Jack. Besides, you're upsetting Ianto." The Doctor whispered into his ear. Immediately Jack was by Ianto's side, holding his hand and gazing at his face, waiting for him to wake up.
"What did you do to Ianto?" the Doctor asked Owen.
"I… I dunno I just… attacked him." Owen bowed his head, ashamed.
"Why?"
"Owen was teasing Ianto about… stuff that happened after Jack was shot with a large dose of Vikatin, sedative and Retcon. When Jack woke up he couldn't remember and Owen made fun of Ianto." Tosh explained hesitantly, "I think it did start out as teasing but it got rough and they started fighting. I don't know exactly what happened but Gwen, Jack and I arrived just in time to pry Owen off Ianto to keep them from murdering each other."
"Well that's odd," the Doctor mused,
"What? What's odd?" Owen asked quickly,
"Well seeing as Jack was the one shot with Vikatin, sedative, and Retcon I would expect him to be the one going crazy. In fact I think that's what they wanted. How was he shot again?"
"They were aiming for Ianto actually. Jack pushed Ianto down and jumped in the line of fire. I think that they were trying to get Ianto so loopy it would push him to insanity and maybe kill him, but Jack pushed him down and got shot in the shoulder. Not all of it went in, only about a quarter actually entered his bloodstream." Tosh offered.
"So they were trying to get Ianto sick, but not immediately dead, giving some hope that he would survive so when he finally died it would be even more devastating." The Doctor looked at Jack with a slight smile before turning to look at Owen, "Yet Owen's the one going mad," the Doctor puzzled over it for a second and moved to examine Owen closer. "Maybe they injected you so you would go mad at some point as well. But how? I mean if you had been injected you would've felt it, feels like a shot, unless they did something else at the same time to keep your mind off it, nothing to serious to handicap you but just enough… oh!" he shouted and everyone looked up at him. "Of course! The janitor that pushed you and sprained your ankle, and they did that to keep your mind off the shot! And after is when you started being really mean!" the Doctor's face lit up with excitement,
"How did you know that?" Gwen asked,
"Martha wanted to say one last goodbye to Jack, so I've been following you guys for a few days." The Doctor explained,
"Ok, so I'm injected with this… thing that makes me mean. How do we know when it's out?" Owen asked,
"You're no longer mean," the Doctor replied simply.
"Yeah well tough luck, I'm always mean. So what are you gonna do to me? Scan me? Put me in a cell? No fucking thanks. Cause I'm getting the fuck out of here you fucking idiots." Owen made to leave but the Doctor snapped his fingers and the doors closed, no matter how hard Owen pulled they wouldn't open.
"I'm sorry," the Doctor whispered before injecting him with a sedative and letting him slump to the ground.
"It's safe to move him," Martha spoke up from Ianto's side. Jack took a deep breath before standing up.
"Tosh, get Owen. Gwen, help me with Ianto." Jack turned towards Martha, "thanks."
"No problem." She smiled, "I might see more of you, I'm staying here, just wanted to have one last goodbye." Martha smiled. Jack turned to the Doctor.
"Thank you. Thank you so much. If you hadn't him saved I…" Jack couldn't finish the sentence.
"That's what friends do. Besides, I wouldn't be very much of a friend if I let one of the only people you care about die." The Doctor smiled. Jack saluted him and helped Gwen carry Ianto out of the TARDIS.
"So that's the Doctor?" Gwen asked,
"Yeah," Jack replied wearily. "Ok, Gwen drives, Tosh passenger, Owen in the back, and I'll keep Ianto company in the very back." Jack told them as they neared the SUV. Jack climbed in and set Ianto's head on his lap and grabbed his friends' hand. Shaking off the feeling of de-ja-vu Jack stared off into space.
"It's dark," Ianto murmured.
"You're awake!" Jack looked at him excitedly.
"Ow… yeah I am. Shit that hurts." Ianto moaned,
"Shh, save your breath. We're heading back to the Hub where we can get you properly fixed up." Jack told him gently.
"But it hurts… it hurts so much…" Ianto groaned.
"We gave him some sedative and a little Vikatin so he'll sleep soon," Owen's voice sounded through the comm. and Ianto flinched.
"Thanks, but I think I can handle it," Jack took the comm. off.
"Why did he attack me?" Ianto asked softly,
"Medication gone bad."
"Kind of like you, huh?" Ianto laughed weakly.
"What did I do? When I was under the Vikatin? Because they keep referencing it and you fought with Owen about it."
"You talked a lot about the doctor, and a paradox. We were… dead… but not… and you…" the last words were so quiet Jack couldn't hear them over the roar of the engine.
"Sorry what?" Jack leaned in closer.
"You told me to save my breath… sir,"
"Don't call me sir, it's Jack. We've been working together long enough," Jack smiled.
"Ok, Jack." Ianto closed his eyes and fell asleep.
