CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

Jack hadn't got out of the house when it exploded.

The others we're almost back at the SUV when the house exploded, they were knocked to the ground.

"What has he done?" Ianto asked shielding his eyes from the falling debris.

"Where's Oliver?" Toshiko asked in a panic.

"Oh my God!" Gwen said in horror "He went back for something"

"And you let him?" Owen asked accusingly

"Have you trying stopping him?"

"We need to find Jack" Ianto said heading towards the smouldering pile that was once a house.

Sifting through the wreckage they found Jack, they all heaved a sigh of relief as he came back to life again. But try as they might they found no sign of Oliver.

They had searched for hours for him with no success. They stood looking at the smouldering remains of the house.

"Do you think he's dead?" Owen asked

"Or regenerated" Jack replied "If he has we don't even know what he looks like. Still we haven't found his body we can always hope" Jack said will hope.

"He must have regenerated" Toshiko said "Or we would have found his body"

"He knows where to find us, if he needs us" Gwen said

"Yes he does" Jack said with a small smile.

"Are you going to tell the doctor?" Toshiko asked

"Not until I know he's alive, I couldn't break his hearts again"
