It was slow trying to get back to the TARDIS with the two struggling men. Jack was slightly surprised that they were able to walk past several people and no one tried to stop them despite the fact that the man was screaming help me still and the guard had taken to yelling. The people made a wide circle around them, letting them go on their way as if nothing was happening. Jack looked at the Doctor, but he was staring forward just determined to get back to the safety of his TARDIS. As they approached the blue box, Jack dropped the guard's leg so that he could take over holding the man allowing the Doctor to open the door. He fought to get the man on as he kicked his legs out preventing them.
"Help me," he screamed panicking as they tried to force him into the box. The Doctor tried to grab his leg and was kicked in his arm for his trouble. He didn't seem to care as he reached forward grabbing his leg again and finally pulling him into the box.
"I promise you are safe with us. I'm the Doctor and this is Jack. What is your name? The DOctor asked the man as he continued to struggle. The man didn't answer him as he screamed louder for someone to help him.
"Give me your tie," Jack told the Doctor. The Doctor loosened his tie and slipped it over his head. Jack forced the man's hands together allowing the Doctor to slip the tie over his wrist tightening it in place. He then looped it around tieing it so that the man couldn't escape.
"I know you're scared but I promise that we're going to get you the help that you need. I know me destroying the powder seems unfair but you'll one day see that you don't need it," The Doctor spoke softly trying to reassure the man as took his arm. Saying the words made it feel like a weight had been lifted off of his chest and his mind. While their were other men out there who sold the drugs, the men who hurt him were no longer part of it. Micha was dead and the guard would soon be in prison.
"I do need it," The man whined at him. He continued to fight as the Doctor led him over to the captain's chair helping him to sit down. The Doctor was still talking soothingly to the man, but had lowered his voice so that Jack could no longer hear him clearly. Turning, Jack looked out the door to see that the guard who had managed to get to his feet and was running away from the box trying to make his escape. Jack stepped outside ready to give chase when he heard the Doctor make a strange noise with his mouth. Claws scraped across the pavement as Osiris rounded the corner. He caught up with the running guard easily and Jack didn't have time to react as Osiris's mouth opened wide before latching onto the guard's leg. The guard screamed in pain falling as Osiris held on. Osiris violenty shook his head back and forth causing the guard's leg to make a sickening snapping noise as it bent to the side.
"How do I get him to let go?" Jack called back to the Doctor. The Doctor leaned over looking out the door. He whistled long and low. Osiris let go of the guard's leg. Lifting his tails high he bounded into the TARDIS to sit by his owner. Jack grabbed the guard by his bitten leg dragging him towards the TARDIS once more. The guard screamed but his screams got cut off quickly as he passed out from the pain. Jack deposited him right inside the doors to the TARDIS closing them tightly.
"I am going to take Ben to a hospital that can help him before we take the guard to a prison camp," The Doctor told Jack. Jack nodded as that arangement seemed fair to him. He left the guard by the door going to Ben's side. He supported him on the captain's chair while the Doctor drove. The ride was smooth but short as the Doctor stayed in the same century. With Jack's help he took Ben off of the hospital promising that he would be back to check on him. Going back on the TARDIS, he found that the guard was awake but he was eyeing Osiris wearily as he didn't dare move.
"You have no right to hold me prisoner. Micha is going to make you pay for this," the guard snapped at him. Jack knelt down by the guard and grabbing the his hair forced his head back.
"Micha is dead and you should be too you rapist bastard. The only reason I haven't killed you yet is he asked me not too. Keep testing me, though, and I might forget his request," Jack snapped at the guard.
"You can't believe the whore. I didn't rape him, he wanted." They all knew how that sentence was going to end. The guard was cut off, though, as Jack dropped his head, swung his fist and hit him in the side of the head all in the same movement. The guard went limp as his eyes closed. The guard's trip was longer as the Doctor took him to the prison colony Hades in the Cerberus System. The planet was contstantly bathed in darkness as the sun was too weak to reach it. Even if his trip was longer it wasn't as if he was able to enjoy it as the moment he opened his eyes Jack punted him in the head.
"Did you kill him?" The Doctor questioned looking over his shoulder. Jack leaned down placing two fingers to the man's neck. He found the man's pulse and sighed.
"No," he replied disappointedly. The Doctor shook his head making his way around the TARDIS console as he landed her. Jack opened the doors to the TARDIS and kicked the guard off. As soon as the doors were closed the Doctor sent the TARDIS back into the vortex. He flopped down on the captain's chair with a sigh.
"Maybe we should just go back to London," The Doctow whispered looking down. Jack went over to him sitting beside him. He put his arms around the Doctor pulling him close. The Doctor leaned over putting his his head on Jack's shoulder. He could feel the Doctor's sadness through their bond. This was supposed to be a trip to cheer up the Doctor and he wasn't going to let Micha ruin his life again.
"I know you're disappointed, sweetheart as you didn't plan on taking care of Micha yet. But we are still in your TARDIS and there is a whole universe that we can explore," Jack told him. The Doctor nodded not moving. Jack tugged on the Doctor gently guiding him to sit on his lap with their chest touching. The Doctor's legs were bent pressing againtst the back of the seat. He held onto Jack tightly as Jack placed their lips together kissing softly. He explored the Doctor's mouth with his tongue as he comforted him with his mind. Reaching down in between them, he unbuckled the Doctor's belt helping him to slide down his trousers. The Doctor groaned as Jack pushed a finger up into his body rocking against it as they continued to kiss. His own hands went down to Jack's trousers. He unzipped them pulling Jack's member out. He held it in place as he lifted his bottom then sat down again taking Jack up into his body. It was hard to move with the way they were sitting but neither one mind as they rocked holding each other as close as possible.
"Grab the back of the chair and lift yourself," Jack told him eventually. The Doctor listened lifting his body higher. Jack moved so that he could thrust into the Doctor easier, finally bringing them both over the edge. With their releases the Doctor sank back down kissing Jack. His mind was more at ease even if Jack could still feel his sadness through the bond. He helped the Doctor to stand and tucked him back into his trousers. Going to the console he placed a hand on the coordinates. "May I?" the Doctor nodded and Jack changed the coordinates. He then allowed the Doctor to take over driving.
The planet they landed on was completely different than the snowy planet they had been on before. The sun was bright in the sky and the sandy beach sparkled beneath it. The Doctor could hear the sound of children laughing as they ran along the beach avoiding the water lapping at their toes. The Doctor peered out to see that they were next to a small village that lined a wood paved street. They left their coats inside as they walked hand in hand exploring the shops that lined the street. Jack wasn't surprised when the Doctor immediately went to a vendor selling fruit and bought several large bananas. He opened one, breaking off a piece to eat as he headed to the next shop.
"What do you think?" Jack questioned as he couldn't tell how the Doctor was feeling besides his happiness over finding a banana.
"It's nice," the Doctor answered. He loved little shops and he enjoyed himself looking at them as he picked out a few things to buy. Sooner than Jack expected, though, the Doctor was heading back to the TARDIS. Jack followed him watching as the Doctor bipassed his ship. He toed his converse off before running into the cool water. He swam out a few yards as Jack kicked off his own shoes following him. He swam over to the Doctor and went below the water. Grabbing the Doctor's legs he swam quickly upward causing the Doctor to raise then fall back. The Doctor laughed as the two of them played and when they finally made their way out of the water he was genuinely happy.
They dried off and changed in the TARDIS then headed out again for a nice meal at one of the villages many restuaurants. Choosing to eat outside, they watched the sunset staying long after the stars came out. They shown brightly in the sky with out all the bright artifical lights of a big city to dim them. The Doctor stared up at them until a soft yawn escaped his lips reminding him that he needed to take his medications and rest his still healing body. Relucantly, they went back to the TARDIS landing her in the UNIT hospital less than a minute after they left. Almost as soon as they landed the door to the TARDIS flew open and Martha stormed on.
"Where have you been?" Martha asked angrily as her eyes looked from Jack to the Doctor.
"Nowhere, I just moved the TARDIS out of the hallway like you have requested several times now," The Doctor lied as he turned to head back to the medi-bay for his medications. Martha looked at Jack who kept his face as blank as possible. She knew they were lying the only problem was that she couldn't prove it.
"Don't you dare lie to me," Martha snipped at Jack. Jack furrowed his brow at her trying to look confused.
"We just moved the TARDIS," Jack reiterated to her. "Besides you know she won't let him travel yet." Irritated Martha stormed off of the TARDIS. Jack waited until she was completely gone before he laughed in relief. He had fun today and seeing the Doctor smile was worth Martha's anger. She would get over it and life would return to normal in London. Wiping his eyes, Jack went after his lover. He wasn't going to let Martha feel bad for having fun. Thankfully the Doctor didn't seem to care as he had climbed into bed, exhausted after his long day at the beach.
"Thank you, Jack," The Doctor whispered sleepily. Jack pulled the blankets up to his neck tucking him in.
"Any time."
