Stalked 10
Authors note - I want to thank everyone for all the lovely reviews, I really appreciate you all sticking with me through this fic. This chapter like the last has not been beta'd so all mistakes are mine….I was having a bad day and poor Ianto suffers for it. Sorry Ianto *hugs him* I love you. Plus this chapter isn't that long but I have some nice things in store soon. Promise. Plus with all my updates lately I think my brains starting to melt.

Jack sat with tears in his eyes as the cog door rolled open and Owen and Tosh ran in together. Jack just turned to them. Tosh wrapped her arms around his shoulders, hugging him tightly as Owen sat at his desk and pulled up the CCTV footage.
"What happened Jack?" Tosh asked.
"I went out to get breakfast, he went outside, probably just to get some air. Anyway, he was knocked unconscious. I…" Jack broke off and bit his lip as Tosh tried to comfort him.
Jack suddenly stood up. "I don't have time for this, we have to find Ianto." He squeezed Tosh's shoulder in thanks. "Tosh we got a good shot of the guy try identify him. Owen see if you can track the car through the CCTV. I'm going to hand check faces." Jack said as he got the computers to print off anything close to the guys face.
Gwen burst in. "What happened ?" she asked, her voice thick with worry.
"Ianto was outside and was knocked out by the guy." Owen said simply typing furiously. "Cars a blue BMW M3." He called as he spotted the car on the camera as it weaved it's way through the city centre.
"Good work, any look finding where it's gone?" Jack asked as he handed Gwen some papers.
"Not yet, through town, looks like he's leaving Cardiff, but he won't have gone far." Owen insisted.
"How do you know?" Tosh asked.
"He's obviously close to Cardiff if he's watching Ianto, but he isn't going to be in the city." Owen said.
"He's probably less than 20 miles from the outskirts." Gwen put in.
"Close to the object of his obsession." Tosh said.
"Exactly, but what drove him to fixate on Ianto?" Owen asked.
"Well Ianto used to perform at clubs in London, if our guy saw one I can see no reason he wouldn't become fixated." Jack said.
"Really, that good huh?" Gwen asked.
"Fantastic, like the words suddenly got a soul and soared. Had the whole club fixated. No one even went up to the bar for drinks during song." Jack said
"So essentially, this guy sees Ianto at a club, falls in lust or whatever, Ianto probably turns him down, he becomes an obsessed stalker, kills his best friend, broke into his house and kidnapped him." Owen listed.
"Yeah, humanity really can be a sick and terrifying think." Jack said honestly, eyes cloudy as he got back to his checks, he'd had Gwen print off a still from the CCTV to compare their pictures to.
"He looks so normal. I mean he did in the photos Ianto showed us, but, it doesn't seem real. It's like the cannibals, I sometimes wonder if these people are really human." Gwen confessed.
"The fact they are human is what makes it so terrifying. If it's alien you can brush it off, but humans, they walk round us every day, live next door, love us. That makes the fear and terror so much more real." Jack said checking one photo very closely before putting it in a pile to look at on the computer.
"I lost the car Jack, lost the CCTV when he left the city, heading out on the M4." Owen said before hitting the monitor in frustration.
"We'll just have to find the guys address on personal records." Jack said looking frustrated and terrified. He'd just got Ianto into his life and he loved every second, he couldn't lose him, not now, not this soon and not to this maniac.
"We'll get him back Jack, we won't rest till we do." Tosh promised.
"Yeah, we'll live here till he comes home, then you can take him to bed and tie him to the mattress." Gwen said looking through her stack of photos, looking for the slightest detail that may lead them in the right direction.
Owen sat down with them and picked up a stack of photo's from Jacks pile and started going through them.
Jack stood up and wandered into the kitchen, the others looked after him wondering if he needed some time alone or to follow. They were relieved however when he came back with four mugs of very black coffee.
"We need the kick." He said handing everyone a mug and sipping his as he went back through the photos.
Gwen picked hers up and drank it down without complaint, as did Owen and Tosh. "Jack, Ianto's strong, he'll be alright, then when we find him we'll teach his stalker what happens when you mess with one of ours."
Jack looked up, Gwen sounded absolutely murderous, he hadn't heard anything close to that tone since the fairies. It frightened him so he silently thought the stalker is really going to regret everything. He'd make sure of that.
They worked in silence for over an hour and Jack was getting twitchy, this wasn't going anywhere, he wanted to pull out his hair in frustration. He needed Ianto home, needed him to be safe.
"Jack I got a hit on the database. 98% chance of a match and that's close enough. Guys name is Matt Norton, 32, lawyer, born in London, only child, normal parents, normal childhood, had a restraining order filed against a guy called Craig Davis, domestic abuse, no records of anything ever filed against him, moved to Cardiff the same time Ianto did. Just days after as a matter of fact. Worked at a firm across the quay. Not seen at work for over a week. Address is a P.O. box in Rudry. That's about 20 minutes away. Less than 20 miles, but there's a lot of woodland in that area, we'll need a way to find them." Tosh rattled off her voice calm, but her body language excited.
"That's great work Tosh, everyone saddle up, we're going to go find Ianto." Jack said his voice loud and booming in the confined hub.
…………………………………………………………………
Ianto looked blankly at the walls, he couldn't move, he'd been drugged, he could almost feel it physically coursing through his veins and invading his senses. It terrified him completely. He could barely think about what had just happened, this man, this psycho. Claimed he loved Ianto, that they were meant to be. It was all a sick reality for this man.
Ianto closed his eyes at the images his mind conjured. That man, his cold, horrid hands that had slid across his body, had touched him in ways he wished he'd never felt. He felt tears gather behind his eye lids. Oh Jack, how he wanted that warm comforting touch right now, to wipe away the other mans touch.
He had entered that room barely half an hour ago, rattled off a spiel about how Ianto had made him a better man, then proceeded to show his 'love'. Ianto shuddered at the feel of that man touching his body, touching him in the intimate way Jack did. He could feel the result of that touch sliding down his chest, see the bruises on his naked body and prayed he'd be found, this wouldn't break him, this man was insane.
"Oh hello love, have you come to your senses yet?" He asked, his voice cheery and well normal.
Ianto just turned his head away in disgust, it was about the only thing he could do.
"Aww, but sweetheart, you need to apologise." He said said, coming over before sharply pulling Ianto's face round to look at him. "You've been very naughty, you've been sleeping with that slut, he's defiled your wonderful body, he doesn't deserve to touch you. Not like I do. I'm better than he is." Ianto's body trembled, not that.
"Oh I'll show you love, you'll never want to leave me again." He said as he leant down and licked at Ianto's quivering neck, he could feel the Welshman's pulse flutter and thud against his tongue and it excited him. "Oh my poor angel, violated by such a bad man, we'll just have to fix that won't we precious."
Ianto shook his head violently, but the man held him down by his throat, squeezing hard on his wind pipe making him gasp.
"I don't want to do it this way, but either stop fussing or I will. I need to take his smell and touch away, can't have you tainted now can we?" he asked rhetorically as he looked at the love bite on Ianto's neck. "That'll heal soon my sweet, then it'll just be me." He lowered his face to the other side of Ianto's neck and Ianto whimpered as he felt sharp teeth graze his skin before they clamped down savagely breaking the skin and causing his blood to flow freely. Ianto's eyes closed and tears slid down his cheeks, the humiliation and pain were almost overwhelming, but he was sure there would be worse to come.
"Now to get rid of the other traces." He said flipping Ianto over. Ianto cried silently. He felt rough hands part his cheeks and he couldn't stop it. The man forced a dry finger into him and he wanted to cry out, to struggle, but he couldn't.
"I love your arse." he said as he spit on his hand and used that to coat his erection. Ianto forced his eyes closed as he felt the bulbous head at his opening before it was forced in. He let out the barest squeak of pain and closed his eyes, tears falling down his cheeks.
"Come on love, feels good doesn't it? Yeah you like it like that." He said reaching under Ianto to tug on his cock, Ianto could feel his body betray him as he became erect and he couldn't focus anymore, it was all a painful nightmare.
Matt pushed his cock in brutally, tugging Ianto's erection and Ianto felt himself cum. He felt disgusted by himself and let out a pitiful moan as he felt the other man cum inside of him.
"There now, all better. Rest love, we'll move later." He pulled out and left without a backwards glance and Ianto let the hot tears burn his humiliated face.
………………………………………………………
Jack drove like a man possessed to get to Rudry, it was their best hope and he hoped they wouldn't be to late, Owen had said this guy may try to end it if he thought Ianto was going to be taken from him, he was psychologically unstable. But right now, Jack didn't care, he just wanted Ianto back, safe and sound.
"Jack point 4 of a mile turn left, then we have to search manually." Tosh said from her place in the back, Gwen was riding shotgun and making sure Jack didn't hit any careless motorists.
"Good job Tosh, everyone be on the look out for that blue BMW. It could lead us to him," Jack said taking a sharp left. Jack and the rest of the team looked around for any likely hiding places, the place wasn't large but all the wooded areas made it a good hide out.
……………………………………………………………
Ianto lay on the mattress, he didn't blink, couldn't move, couldn't process what had just happened. Oh he knew what had happened, hard not to with the sticky substance leaking from his entrance, he just couldn't process that it had happened, happened to him. The man had left when he was done, he'd tried to get Ianto off as well, Ianto hated his own body for responding to the touch, it made him feel all the more dirty.
Tears rolled down his face silently. He was begging, praying for them to find him, to just take him home, he couldn't go through that again.
………………………………………
Jack drove down a dirt road, it had seemed the most likely candidate for hiding. Shrouded by trees as a small track ran off it, he drove down it quickly, the SUV jumping and flinging the cars occupants around in the back, but no one said anything, no one dared to. With all the roads and tracks around and a couple of wrong turns already, no one wanted to make Jack even more frustrated, or get their own hopes up to much.
It was Gwen who spotted it. "Jack, blue BMW right there." She shouted pointing towards a car, it didn't have plates and Jack immediately stopped the car.
"Everyone be quiet, if this is the guy we want to surprise him, don't want to give him chance to get a weapon of hurt Ianto. Owen cover the back, Gwen go in from the left, Tosh go right and I'll knock on the door." Jack said his voice venomous, frightening to the team, they had never heard him speak with such pure hatred.
The house was a bungalow, small and weathered. But it was well maintained, flowers looking lovely, manicured garden. It all looked so normal, the thought made Gwen shudder, what psychos lived on her street.
Jack crept up to the door, his gun cocked and ready as the rest of the team moved into position.
"In place Jack." Tosh said through the ear piece.
"Me too." Gwen said in a whisper.
"I'm here." Owen said.
"Can anyone see anything through the windows?" Jack asked also whispering.
"I have one male, looks like our guy, Christ Jack, this guy has hundreds of photos of Ianto." Gwen whispered.
"Jack, I think I have a visual on Ianto." Owen said cautiously.
"What is it Owen?" Jack asked.
"He doesn't look good Jack, he's barely moving, we need to get in there now." Owen said sharply.
"On my count. 1.…2.…3!" He shouted and kicked the front door in, it bounced off the hallway wall and he heard windows smashing with a very loud shout of 'DON'T MOVE!' from Gwen's direction. Tosh ran across the hall to help contain the man and Jack headed to the back of the house, his heart in his throat as he shouldered through the only door at the back of the house.
Owen knelt next to Ianto, checking his pulse and breathing, barley able to keep focused on doing his job. He looked up at Jack. "Come hold this down." he instructed, he'd ripped a sleeve off his t-shirt and held it to the bite on Ianto's neck.
Jack looked slightly sickened and knelt beside the bed, pressing down firmly to help stop the bleeding.
"Ianto mate, can you hear me?" Owen asked gently.
He saw Ianto nod, his eyes were closed though so Owen slowly checked his pupil responses. "Pulse is elevated, unsurprising, slightly increased respiration rate, pupils are pin pricks, he's been drugged. Ianto mate can you move?" Owen asked gently rubbing the other mans chilled arm.
Ianto shook his head slightly.
"Alright, Jack your going to have to carry him, we'll deal with the sick fuck." Owen said looking for something to wrap Ianto in. Jack didn't reply, he took off his great coat and wrapped Ianto in it, the Welshman visibly calmed with the familiar feeling and smells.
"Retcon's in the car." Jack said simply picking Ianto up easily, holding the younger man as close as he could, just wanting to feel the familiar heat and know he was alive, he wouldn't say alright, he'd seen the evidence.
"Yeah, we'll set the guy up with something, he won't get out." Owen promised. As he left heading straight for the SUV and holding the back door open for Jack to put Ianto in then climb in himself holding Ianto in his lap not willing to let go yet. He contented himself with running his fingers through Ianto's hair.
…………………………………
Gwen and Tosh looked at Owen as he came in.
"Why did you want Ianto, what did you get out of it you sick fuck?!" he asked with a deadly serious tone as Tosh and Gwen kept their guns trained on the guy.
"He's so perfect, funny and smart. I deserve that, he's to good for anyone else, I'm perfect and so is he, we should have always been together. That girl, that blonde girl, she was going to hurt him, she was going to make him make me go away. I couldn't let that bitch take him away from me." he said with a completely reasonable tone.
"You killed Cassie." Tosh stated.
"Was that her name, didn't matter, she was going to take him away, just like that guy was I had to get him away, he's to good for him, he doesn't need a slut like that, he deserves to be loved and cherished. I wasn't going to let anyone get away with touching what's mine." he said deadly serious.
"well you sick fuck, you're the one who has never deserved him, you will never come near him again and we will make sure of it." Gwen said.
"What, you going to shoot me?" he asked smirking smugly.
"No first I think the dear captain wants a turn, watch him for another minute." Owen said leaving quickly before he seriously decked the guy.
He spotted Jack in the back of the SUV. He opened the door. "You want a minute with him?" Owen asked motioning he'd stay with Ianto.
"Yeah, watch him like a hawk." Jack said laying Ianto carefully on the seat and kissing his forehead. Ianto flinched ever so slightly and Jack was angered further. Ianto should never be afraid of him.
Jack got out the car and Owen grabbed the kit from the back before climbing in with Ianto intent on bandaging the bite.
Jack walked into the room, face like thunder as he gazed upon the man who had dared to hurt their precious Ianto, their colleague, their friend, his love.
"You are one messed up fuck." Jack said with a dark expression.
"He was never yours, should have always been mine, that bitch got in the way, then you. You don't deserve him, he cried over you, no one should hurt him." Matt said with cold emotionless eyes.
"Yet you did, I could make you hurt, I could torture you for days, make you live on the precipice between life and death, hold you in a state of excruciating pain and psychological torture. But unlike you, I can see beyond that, I will not become that man again, not for you. I will make sure you live in pain and torment, but I won't have to do a thing." jack turned, not able to look at him anymore. Jack walked away, not wanting to listen to the demented ramblings of the other man.
As he reached the SUV he noticed the bandage taped to Ianto's neck. "He'll be alright Jack." Owen said quietly.
"No evidence of this place, nothing." He told Owen, looking at him and using his eyes to convey his intent.
"Anything you say Jack." Owen said looking back with a similar look, walking back to the house, retcon bottle in hand.
"Time to end this ladies." he said looking at them, they looked worried and wrung out.
"You can't kill me." Matt said with a pleased smirk.
"No, just make you forget." Owen said taking out some retcon pills. He walked to the guy and forced his mouth open. The guy didn't move, keeping his eyes trained on the girls guns.
Owen forced 3 pills down his neck, forcing him to swallow. He quickly fell unconscious. "Get the guy for murder, rape, whatever you can, he's never getting out." Owen said watching Gwen and Tosh lower their guns and look at him for confirmation.
Owen shook his head, he wasn't going to tell them right now, they had other, more important things to do. "Take the guy outside and 'm going to set this place alight. No one will ever see any of this stuff again." he said with persecution. Gwen and Tosh nodded, dragging the guy out by his legs, not at all caring if he got hurt.
Owen looked at all the photo's covering 3 of the 4 walls, and he was sickened as he ripped them down and looked for something to use as an accelerant, he spotted some bottles of alcohol, perfect. He opened them all and splashed everything with the cheap booze, pulling out his lighter and with conviction set the room alight. He ran outside to join the girls, time to go home.
………………………………………………………………………
"I'll help you through this Ianto, I promise, it'll be alright." He said as the others hopped into the car, Gwen taking the drivers seat and Tosh riding shotgun, Owen joined them in the back to keep an eye on Ianto.
"Let's head home." Gwen said as she started the car, no one discussing what they had just gone through, nor did Jack and Owen say what they saw, plenty of time to try explain when they reached the hub. Right now what mattered was resting against Jacks chest, held there by the captains strong arms.
