Jul 14, 2011 11:27


I: Jack, who's dead? Who does he mean?

J: The person I knew I'd find if I came here, the last night of the house of the dead, Ianto Jones.

I: Jack? What?

J: Ianto...6 months ago, you died in my arms. You are a ghost.

I: No!

J: I came looking for you. I couldn't resist it.

I: I'm dead...

J: You were here waiting for me when I walked in. Ianto Jones, never late.

I: But I feel...real. I'm not a ghost. I had porridge this morning! ...Didn't I? Jack...I can't remember.

J: I didn't know you'd be so real. I'd hope for less.

I: Thanks...

J: No, you don't understand. I thought it would just look like you...

I: It?

J: I could've cope with that... I didn't dream it would actually be you. Syriath used my grief and she reached in Time. She recreated you Ianto and I... I can't bear to look at you...

I: You can't...Jack!

J: Sorry Ianto, I, I, I'm sorry, I...

I:Don't! touch me...Don't!

J: OK...

I:So.. how did I die?

J: It was all over so quickly...

I: Not an answer! Was it your fault?

J: You were one of the first victims of an alien plague. You were so brave. You died saving the world.

I: Well you'd think I'd remember that. But I...don't...Did I get a funeral?

J:I don't know. I wasn't there.

I: What?!

J: I had to leave..I am sorry...

I: You couldn't left me rest in peace. You've done this to me... Dragged me back to say goodbye...This is not about closing the Rift, destroying that creature, or even your bloody stones! It's not even about me. This...this is all about you, Jack.

J:Ianto this is not how I planned it!

I:What were your hoping for? Let's say if your xxxx, that I'd be grateful.

J:I just wanted to see you one more time! That's all! It's why I came here.

I: Well that's lovely.

J:Ianto! All the people I've lost, don't you understand? The only one I'd wanted to see was you!

I: Thanks, at least you didn't forget me.

J: How could I?! I maybe immortal but I don't forget. I lose everyone, but I don't forget any of you. I worked so hard to remember...

I: You make it sound like charity work...

J: Don't say that! Never say that!

I: Jack, I didn't think the last thing I'd ever say to you would be this: ju...just go away, please...this is horrible.

J: I had to see you again...you have no idea what it felt like coming back to life knowing the world is empty...because you'd gone. No matter how many times I die, I always wake up alone...

I: I didn't ask to come back...

J: Neither did I! You and me, Ianto Jones, together again at the end: how it should be. In a few seconds, Syriath will rise. I'll trigger this device to destroy her and sealing the rift forever.

I: You are not planning on coming back, are you?

J: No, it'll be a pretty big Bang.

I: You can't die!

J: Next best thing. You turn to oblivion, lost in the space between worlds forever. Come on, it's quite a way to go. I think I've live long enough. I've seen you once more. What else is there?

I: Well, we could just go.

J: What?!

I: My dad said we could both leave together.

J: Never, you're kidding, right?...You mean leave here?

I: Why not try it? The rift, ancient evil, magic pebbles, just for once, let someone else deal with it.

J: Can we do that?

I:I'm real, aren't I?

J:It'll never work! We cross that door we'll be back in the real world. What if you vanish, what will happen?

I: That's no reason for not trying. Seems a bit shame, you know, to get me back to only lose me again, a touch careless.

J: True. Syriath, the last remnant of a dead universe. Nah, she's not so special. But there's only one Ianto Jones.

I: And there's only ever been one Captain Jack Harkness.

J: AH screw it! Worth a try. Let's leave the device here for Syriath.

I: This whole place is falling into the rift.

J: We better go now.

I: Cross that doorway and there's no coming back.

J: Why would I want to? I've got you back, Ianto. Let's do this! Come on Ianto, be brave!

I: Always.

J: Welcome back to the land of the living, Ianto Jones. Has it worked? Are you real again? Ianto! Ianto?

I: I'm not coming.

J: Ianto, no, come on! There's still time!

I: No, Jack, you know I can't. My place is here, in the house of the dead, with your device, saving the world!

J: Don't do this!

I: Sorry Jack, so I was gonna destroy the rift, what a way to go!

J: No! not like this! Don't leave me like this!

I: Gotta go!

J: Ianto, no! I never said it properly before...

I: It doesn't need saying.

J:Yes it does! Ianto Jones, I love you!

I: And I love you too, Jack. Right then, let's get it move on. Good bye Jack!

A couple of minutes later

J: Good bye, Ianto。。。

The end.
