Ianto ran into the room skidding on the stone floor as he stopped.

"I found him! He's coming to fix you Lisa!"

The metallic women glanced up with a keen gaze; finally she can leave this room and begin to save those weak and petty humans.

Ianto hugged her and kissed her lightly on the lips "this is it! I know this will work we will be together again Lisa!"

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ianto waved the other away happily trying to hide his excitement tonight was the night the night he and Lisa would finally leave the basement the night they would finally move into their apartment and begin their new lives. He hurried away to make preparations.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ianto woke from his dream and rolled over to look at the clock shining a bloodthirsty red in the darkness of his flat, it had been 5 hours and 13 minutes since they had killed her, tomorrow he would have to see them all and he would have to talk to jack, he would probably be retconned. The young man beat his pillows savagely and growled to himself, I wish they would just kill me or retcon me so I never remember anything again. Climbing out of the sweat dampened sheets he walked to window of his flat and stared out over Cardiff.

Look at those people going about as though nothing happened she's dead and life carries on, this is human life its pain and loss maybe Lisa was right maybe it would be better to live as one of them , anything could be better than this pain, its worth than death, anything would be better than this.

The young man took a breath and rolled back the ancient cog door. Silence immediately entered the hub as he entered the others sat watching him, the girls with a mixture of fear and pity, the doctors face a contortion of fury.

The Welshman didn't look up as he walked across the room towards the stairs his feet like lead a she whispered under his breath prayers to stop the others from saying anything to him. He flinched at the metallic sound of his feet hitting the steps as he ascended them and entered the conference room. He looked at Jack who sat at the top of the table with a stern glare he indicated towards the seat next to him.

"Sit down Ianto we need to talk"

Ianto felt his stomach boil, this man wanted to talk?! they had killed Lisa and he wanted to have a talk? He just wanted to dive across the table and…and what kill him? Or kiss him? The Welshman did none of these, turning his gaze back to the floor he made his way to his chair and sat down in silence feeling like a child in the headmaster office being told of for not doing his homework, except it wasn't about homework it was about nearly killing everyone in the hub and setting loose something that would destroy the world. The young man stopped mid thought, something? it was Lisa! Not some creature and he let them destroy her!

Jack folded his hands on the desk, "So"

Ianto looked up but he wouldn't meet those blue eyes for fear of seeing what he expected, not anger, not pity but disappointment, "So" he repeated.
