Who's the Dark Avenger.
"Who and what exactly is the Dark Avenger?" Owen asks Jack as Jack returns his Webley to his holster.
"Someone who died a long time ago. How the hell are you here?" he asks the black figure standing in front of the them and then without saying a word, the stranger starts to walk towards them.
"It is you isn't it?" Jack asks the strange but the strange doesn't say anything as it passes them.
"Phoenix!" Jack shouts the stranger stops in it's tracks.
In a black whirl, the stranger turns around, holding it's hand out and seeming all of his own accord, Jack is propelled backwards across the floor.
"You lost the right to call me that when you left me to die Jack," the stranger screams through the visor.
Ianto runs over to Jack as Owen and Gwen followed the stranger into Jack's office as they were curious as to how the stranger knew where it was going. The dark stranger walked straight into Jack's office and straight to the vault. Placing it's hand on the vault password control, a white light glows around it's hand and the stranger tilts it's head back. Within seconds, the vault was making noises and once it had stopped, the stranger took it's hand away and opened the vault door and removed a rather long box.
The stranger takes it over to Jack's desk and sees that Jack had dead locked it but it wasn't anything it couldn't handle. The stranger held it's hand over the lock and in seconds, the dead lock was opened. Removing the lid, the stranger saw what it wanted inside though no-one else could as they weren't too keen on getting too close as they still didn't know who the stranger actually was. Owen and Gwen see the stranger removed the most magnificent broad sword from the box.
The Dark Avenger held the broad sword in it's hands laying it horizontally and looked over it to see if it was damaged. When the stranger was satisfied that it wasn't damage, it took the sword and slid it carefully into it's sheath which was attached to the back of it's coat. With that, it turned swiftly to the office door where Owen and Gwen were stood and made it's way out of the office where it almost came face to face with Jack backed up by Ianto.
"I thought you was going to die so I needed to get out of there or who would have sent the warning?" Jack tells the stranger and the stranger side steps Jack and goes to Toshiko's desk, Toshiko almost diving out of the way.
"You knew better than that Jack. You were just covering your own arse. As though leaving me there to die wasn't bad enough, to stole from me as I was being over run by the enemy," the stranger tells Jack with serious venom in it's voice as it accessed the Hub's computer, laying it's hand on the computer screen.
"What is it doing Jack?" Toshiko asks him more worried about the computer.
"Accessing the hub's computer," the stranger answered before Jack could, turning it's head to Toshiko and Toshiko stared at the black visor, trying to work out what lay behind.
The Dark Avenger then turned back to the computer and after a few more seconds, it seemed to find what it was looking for and took it's hand off of the screen, got up so suddenly giving everyone a fright and walked back to where it had appeared in the Vortex.
"Dark Avenger. I order you to stop and tell me why you are here," Jack orders and then from nowhere, begins to levitate in the air as the stranger turns around to face him.
"You Jack Harkness, order me? You don't have the right to order me and never have. You maybe immortal Jack but I am so much more. As you can see, I haven't lost anything I had before," the stranger tells Jack as it lifts him several feet in the air and the looks on the faces of the others were that of horror, shock and fear as they watch Jack, their leader helpless and not in control.
"I just wanted your attention Phoenix," Jack tells the stranger.
"Don't call me that Jack. It's the Dark Avenger," the stranger tells Jack, dropping him to the ground.
"Leave Jack alone," Ianto shouts at the stranger, running over to Jack and helping him to his feet.
"That is the least he deserves after what he did to me Ianto Jones," the stranger tells him.
"What the hell did he do to deserve this?" Gwen then pipes up and the Dark Avenger turns to her.
"The air was thick, the smell of death everywhere. We had been fighting the enemy for several hours and the others had all been killed. There was just Jack and I left. Back to back we fought, fought for our lives, Jack with what ever weapon he could get his hands on and me with nothing as I had already lost my broad sword. We were pretty much in hand to hand combat and then Jack spotted an escape route and being the coward he was, took it leaving me to fight over a hundred of the enemy on my own. No reinforcements, no help, just me. As I was swamped by the enemy, them dragging me down further and further, Jack looked back, picked up my broad sword and ran. The last thing I remember was shouting his name as he disappeared from sight," the Dark Avenger tells the whole team and they look at him with disgust.
"It wasn't like that and you know it," Jack tells the stranger and the strange snaps it's head round to look at Jack.
"I loved you and you left me, left me to die. You didn't know if I could handle all of them and you didn't stick around to find out if I could," the stranger barks at Jack.
"You survived though," Jack tells the Dark Avenger and Ianto punches him in the arm.
"I might be immortal Jack but it nearly destroyed me killing them all. I was found and taken to a little village where the village elder cared for me. I awoke 4 weeks later from my coma. They didn't think that I would make it, I was barely alive. It took another 9 weeks for me to fully restore my health and strength. You know you could have helped me but you ran, ran like a coward when I needed you the most," the Dark Avenger screamed at Jack and things started shaking, a little at first and then harder.
The hub it's self started shaking, dust started falling from the very high ceilings, Myfanwy becoming restless. The streets around the hub started shaking as though in a prolonged earthquake. Car alarms going off, house alarms going off, things in shops moving, doors rattling. The team looked at the stranger and they saw the most amazing sight. A pure white glow had now surround the stranger, the stranger now looking like a black angel but without the wings as it raised it's arms to the sides.
"Don't do this Phoenix. They haven't done anything. Don't take it out on them that I hurt you," Jack tells the Dark Avenger as he walks closer to the now extremely bright stranger.
The Dark Avenger started to levitate in front of the team.
"Phoenix. Don't do this. Don't destroy them," Jack shouts, the noise of a shaking hub increasing.
The Dark Avenger levitates to the water tower and places it's hands on the water tower. The team watched as the energy from the stranger left it's hands and began to encompass the water tower, rising up it like electricity, flashing blue and white, little sparks leaping from it. The stranger tilts it's head back and growls the most terrifying growl the team had ever heard, the energy now leaving the hub via the water tower and onto the streets of Cardiff, shooting up into the sky.
"Let go Phoenix. Stop!" Jack shouts, a real look of concern on his face as he reaches for the stranger.
As he did, the strangers head came further back and let out another growl before leaning back and falling, falling to the ground and landing in a heap, what seemed like static sparks come from it's body as the shaking stopped. Jack dashed the little way over to the Dark Avenger and gently slid the helmet off of the strangers head and putting the helmet and the team gasp.
