REC: VENGEFUL GOD by LINDSEY_GRISSOM
Title: Vengeful God
Author:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lindsey_grissom
Genre: Cross-over, Angst, Hurt/Comfort, Dark
Rating: PG-13
Other/Implied Pairings: Rhys/Gwen
Summary: First Suzie. Then Owen, Tosh. Now Gwen, Ianto...oh god, Ianto...
Status: COMPLETE
Length: One-shot
Word Count: ~ 924
Warnings: references to & spoilers for: Torchwood 1x01 "Everything Changes," 1x08 "They Keep Killing Suzie," 2x13 "Exit Wounds," Doctor Who 4x12 "The Stolen Planet," and through 4x13 "Journey's End," mentioned Characters deaths, implied Violence
Comment or Excerpt from fic: This is another fic based on TSE, but it is so much darker then the ones I recced before. It's Jack-centric, mostly his feelings when the feed from Torchwood goes blank and he realizes that his soldiers sent him away from the destruction and what he's willing to become now after to avenge the death of his family, especially Ianto and Gwen.
It's very chilling and we see a side of Jack that we've probably never seen before.

EXCERPT:
They’re gone. He staggers back from the screen. Stumbles. Falls. They’re all gone.
... First Suzie. Then Owen, Tosh. Now Gwen, Ianto…oh god, Ianto...
They knew... knows they heard the alert he didn’t. Knows they sent him away when he should have been there. Those smiles as he left, those sad, sad smiles. And his promise; what does it matter now? He told them; they better be okay, and they knew they wouldn’t be... They sent him away, his brave little soldiers. Not soldiers, family. And now they’re gone, he saw the screens go black. Heard the word, the command, the guns that couldn’t do a thing. Heard Gwen screaming, and his Ianto so stoic, so brave.
... there’s a thousand other people they should save. Not Gwen. Not Ianto.
He feels it shatter. Break. Crumble and fail...

I had a sudden influx of reviews for it, and I did wonder why, now I know. Thank you. :)
Have some extra gummy bears. ;)

I'm sure it wasn't me that brought-on the flux of reviews, but you're welcome none-the less!
It's an EXCELLENT story!
