Interview with Toshiko Sato. Continued.
"What happened when Captain Harkness returned to the hub?"
"Well he locked me into the TARDIS for my own safety and I went looking for Ianto."
"Did you find him?"
"Eventually. I got a little lost..."
"What happened when you found him?"
"Well Jack had left so I figured Ianto would be safe and I.... Let him go. Which turned out to be a mistake."
"Oh?"
"He ran off. I tried to follow but I got lost again........"
"It's that big?"
"Yes. Anyway, I eventually made it back to the room with the hologram in and got chatting. I figured I would need computer power if I was to find a way to override the lockdown enough to find a way to do something about them all."
"And the hologram helped you?"
"Well yes, once I managed to persuade him..."
****************************
Jack had never been quite so throughly clean in all his life. Which was ironic as he'd never been having quite such a filthy day before either. His body was still slightly stiff from all the, er, exercise and Ianto was pouting at him from the bed as he got dressed again. "Look I'm sorry but I have to find them. And you, as much as I love it I can't keep being distracted by you." Ianto folded his arms crossly, the towel round his waist doing nothing to hide his intentions towards Jack. His ankle had a thick strap around it, which was attached to the end of the bed firmly, trapping him there. Jack slipped the key into his trousers pockets and pulled the braces up over his T Shirt. "I'll be right back." He crossed the room and grabbed Ianto's face, kissing him fiercely. "You have no idea how much it is killing me to do this."
"You have no idea how much it's killing me to watch you go." Jack grabbed his gun and wrist computer and headed towards the door before sighing deeply. How the hell had he ended up being the responsible one in all this? He opened the door then frowned as he finally spotted the note. He read it with a groan.
Dear Jack,
Sorry about that! Had no idea we would actually end up killing you and as cute as you are Necrophilia isn't really our thing so we thought we'd let you sleep it off for a bit. Cute boyfriend by the way. Nice butt. Anyway, I'm sure we can find SOME way to amuse ourselves in the meantime... See you when you come round maybe?
Be good!
The Doctor.
****************************
Jack headed out into the TARDIS, following the music back to the console room. The hologram was sitting on the seat wearing what appeared to be a loincloth now and looking thoroughly fed up. "Doc... er, are you ok?" The hologram jumped up and ran over as if to hug him then stopped short as he remembered he was a hologram.
"Jack! You're ok! I mean they said you would be but you looked pretty out of it. Are you ok?" Jack nodded quickly.
"Fine, fine. Where are they?" The hologram shrugged and pointed to the door which was slightly ajar.
"They went out." Jack groaned, then frowned as he heard splashing noises and laughter.
"How long was I out for?" The hologram sat down again and folded his arms across his bare chest.
"A few hours."
"Hours? Aw hell..." Jack ran for the door leaving the bemused hologram behind, expecting the worst. Where those two were concerned how on Earth could anything good be going on?
*************************************
Tosh stayed crouched behind the wall in Jacks office, peeking over the top into the hub every now and then. She had no idea how they had managed to do it but the net result of all their... activities... was a very traumatised pterodactyl, a shell shocked computer expert and a thin layer of condensation on the windows in the hub from the slight fog of steam coming off the water pooled at the base of the Water Tower. She dreaded to think whether it affected the main tower above and had attracted outside attention yet. She would have retreated into Jack's room below if it hadn't already been occupied. She tried not to think about that either. Another glance through the window sent a shudder up her spine and made her close her eyes tightly. She was faintly glad she had sworn off men lately. The things she had witnessed in the past hours were enough to turn any woman into a lesbian.... A scream from beneath her feet made her roll her eyes again. Oh she really wished they would shut up. She sank down against the wall and pulled her knees up to her chest. Whatever she had done to deserve being locked up in this nightmare she was really, really sorry for it. Her eyes opened wide as a familiar voice echoed through the hub.
"Oh for the love of... Did your race evolve from rabbits or something?!" She jumped to her feet and peered around the door, carefully not looking at the mess of limbs entangled in a heap in the now warm water of the pool at the base of the Water Tower. Fortunately the steam now rising off the water helped even more, blocking her view of exactly what they had been doing. She focused on Jack, standing on the walkway, his hands on his hips and an annoyed expression on his face. He glanced up and spotted her there and gave her a small smile. She smiled back and stayed where she was, unnoticed by the Time Lords. He jumped down into the pool, water splashing up his legs and soaking his trousers. She couldn't see exactly what was going on but a moment later she looked away as Jack pulled a naked Time Lord out of the water and proceeded to handcuff him to Gwens desk chair, taking a moment to prop a spare file over his lap. The Master snarled and pulled against the cuffs as Jack jumped into the pool again. He appeared to be struggling slightly then stood up again, his clothes soaking as he stepped out of the pool tiredly and walked over to her. As he came through the door she hugged him tightly.
"Oh am I glad to see you." Jack grinned and hugged her back, his damp sleeves making her blouse wet but she didn't care.
"It's ok. Why are you in here?" She nodded towards the bound Master who was leering at Jack from across the hub.
"Them. They've been... well in the pool for ages." Jack smiled thoughtfully and looked at where the Doctor was splashing in the now warm water, his long legs kicking in a mini tantrum as his hands were bound to the railing above his head.
"Yeah, I'll try and take care of them now. Look, let's get you somewhere safe." He let go of her and moved over to the hatch leading down into his quarters. Tosh grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
"I wouldn't do that." He stopped and looked up at her curiously.
"And why not?" She shrugged.
"Gwen and Owen got bored of the autopsy room. They decided your room would be more comfortable." Jack rolled his eyes and stood up fully, rubbing a hand over his tired eyes.
"Oh that is just so... disrespectful! I'm their boss!" Tosh shrugged and folded her arms.
"You've done it with Ianto all over our desks. I guess they just figured turnabout was fair play."
"Oh but that's different...."
"How?!"
"That's ... work, this is my home!"
"Same thing really." Jack sighed and grabbed her hand, dragging her across the hub towards the TARDIS.
"Look, stay in the TARDIS. Ianto is in the back, straight ahead, left, left, right, right then left again, third door along. If you get lost just ask the hologram."
"The what?!"
"Never mind." Jack practically threw her into the TARDIS and used his key to lock the door after her. He sagged against the door and tried to block out the noise of the two Time Lords throwing curses, insults and promises at him. "Oh shut up you two." He looked at the steam coming off the water and sighed yet again. "What the hell did you do to the water tower?" The Master grinned and nodded his head at the Doctor.
"Well I didn't want him to have a chance to plead shrinkage. The water was too cold so we just warmed it up a bit. Nothing permanent." Jack pushed away from the door and headed across the hub, intent on checking how the cure was brewing. This was shaping up to be a very long day.
********************************
The cure was nearly ready. Jack was struggling to keep his eyes open as he prepared the empty needles ready for the distribution to everyone infected in the hub. He had about 60 laid out ready for filling and was trying to find some more in Owen's supplies when a new shout emerged from the Hub. "Jack?! Jack!" He ran up the steps and sighed as he saw Ianto make his way cautiously across the walkway, the towel wrapped tightly around his waist still. He eyed the naked and bound Time Lords cautiously then grinned as he spotted Jack emerging into the dim light of the hub. "Ianto, I told you to stay put."
"Well Sir, technically you are not my boss since you ran off so I don't have to follow your orders." Jack chuckled and walked out to meet him, wrapping his arms around the younger man. A gagging noise from across the room drew his attention.
"Oh isn't that sweet. So touching. Now somebody pass me a bucket so I can vomit..." Jack pointed at the Master angrily.
"Shut up. Don't make me gag you again."
"Ooo I'm so scared. What could you possibly do to hurt me?" Jack sighed as Ianto slipped his hands down inside Jack's trousers again. The slight look of longing in the Masters eyes made him grin evilly as an idea crossed his mind. There was a little time left before the cure would be ready... Jack took Ianto's hands in his, pulling them from his trousers and looking deep into Ianto's eyes.
"Do you trust me?" Ianto grinned and nodded slowly. Jack slowly stepped down into the water again, pulling Ianto down after him and wading through the water towards the Doctor. The Doctor stopped shouting and struggling and raised an eyebrow now as he took in Ianto and Jack coming towards him.
"You want both of us? Are you sure? I mean he's... well obviously I don't fancy him exactly." Ianto pulled a face and frowned at the Time Lord.
"Don't flatter yourself mate, I don't fancy you either." Jack shrugged and sank down into the water beside the Doctor and released his hands at last.
"Trust me gentlemen, there is enough Jack to go around." Jack let himself fall back into the water as the two men shugged at eachother and started forwards. The look on the Masters face was priceless to Jack as the two started undressing him yet again, stripping the sopping wet clothes off him as best they could in the warm pool. Jack looked up to the ceiling of the hub and sighed. Whatever he had done to deserve being trapped in this heaven he was very very grateful for.....
