Liam bolted back up "Jack get over here you bastard!" He growled as he stood up walking around "what's going on...?" Liam asked on the verge of breaking down, Jack appeared behind him, Liam turned quickly to face him "I'm in a coma?.." He questioned "yes..." Jack nodded "so Ianto and mom aren't dead?" Liam asked trying to fight the tears "yes" Jack nodded "and you're there the real you" Liam asked "yes" Jack nodded as if he were on repeat "ok how do I wake up?" Liam muttered "there's a question that lingers in your mind, you push it back and forget about it, find it and find the answer" Jack explained "then what will happen?" Liam panicked "you'll be set free, but hurry... Time is not on your side..." Jack spoke before vanishing into thin air "one question... The one question I always ask myself! What is it?.. I know it exists but I can't remember what it is... Why! Why can't I remember?!" Liam growled at himself as he paced around in a circle "what? What is it? What! Wha-... Oh I know..." Liam smiled realizing his question, now all he had to do was tell Jack "How do I call him?.. Well It's my dream... Coma actually but I control it, like in order to no get in trouble I got rid of Rhiannon" he muttered to himself he concentrated on calling Jack but nothing happened no one answered him, he sat on the floor feeling defeat.
"Liam have you figured it out?" Jack asked appearing above Liam, Liam bolted up wiping away the tears "I called for you an hour ago!" He barked "yes... I know but I wasn't sure if you knew the question" Jack explained as if he was a wise man "oh I know it" Liam smirked "do you now?" Jack questioned him "oh yeah" Liam smiled "then what is it?" Jack asked "who am I?" Liam spoke the question that haunted him since he met Jack "and no it's not like a typical who am I question no mine jumps between to types... Harkness' and Foxley's" Liam smirked as tears droned once again, he turned around to see a World War Two jacket and a Canadian military coat similar to Jacks he had seen Carolynne wear it as since she was a military nurse "and so which are you?" Jack asked.
Liam stared at the Jackets then grabbed the Canadian one and threw it one "I'm a Foxley no doubt! And you'll ask how do I know! Well here's how! Foxley's will die with dignity... Harkness' never die, and that's not me, if I die I'll die knowing the truth, I am not Liam Harkness I am Liam Foxley!" He stated, Jack smiled "welcome back my boy"
Liams POV
The darkness faded and now the light finally reached my eyes after two years. My eyes adjust to the blinding white light, I use my hand to cover it making my vision slightly better, I squint as I look at my pale hands, two years does a lot to you.
"Liam! Liam!" I'm greeted by the sound of what I can assume is Ianto dropping coffee as he rushes to my side
"Carolynne! Jack!" Ianto shouts, making my ears ring I guess my ears are sensitive
"I-Ianto..." I try and mumble though I know it's barely audible but I guess he could here me since he let out a gasp of joy
"Carolynne! Jack! Get in here now!" He shouts getting more excited, I try and sit up but I quickly become exhausted, I manage to look over at Ianto who looks confused and excited I'm not surprised though, finally Jack and Carolynne run in, I can barely see Jack but it seems like he's stopped mid-step in utter shock that I'm awake, Carolynne rushes to me quickly, she says something but I can't hear it, she grabs my hand and starts crying as nurses rush in and start doing tests asking me questions, I answer them the best I can and after a few minutes they prop me up so my back is straightened and I can see the room properly, I see mum grandma and grandpa, Jack and Ianto
"Oh Liam!" Mum cries as she hugs me tightly
"I love you..." I whisper hugging her back gently, she lets go wiping away her tears, I look around and sigh
"Are you hungry?" Ianto asks me
"Two years in a coma, of course" I smile rubbing my eyes
"Well I can get you one food" Jack smiles though I feel it's not genuine
"Mom, grandma and grandpa you should go with him you guys probably haven't eaten much in the past few months" I explain, my mum seems confused and slightly hurt that I have suggested this but they go to grab food leaving me with Ianto, I turn to him and I can tell he wants to ask me a question or many
"It was horrible it was a two year dream" I explain, he looks at me confused
"What?" He asks
"You were going to ask what it was like... Being in a coma" I sigh
"Yeah..." Ianto looks away
"And I remember all of it... Mum died... I killed your daughter Gillian, I died about 5 times... You died... And when you did I had thought you and I actually had a father son bond finally" I frown looking down at my hands, Ianto looks upset
"Why are you telling me all of this?" He asks
"Because... I trusted you when I was dreaming and I will now... I trust you more than Jack" I explain quietly
"How'd she die? Your mum" Ianto asks me quietly
"It was a the beginning of the coma... There was an earthquake... She got stuck in the hub and..." My voice trailed off as the image of her bloody and with that pipe piercing through her flashes in front of me
"I'm going to be messed up" I sigh
"We're back!" Jack smiles walking in with the others
"Liam was just telling me about his dream" Ianto explains, he has a look of telling my mum the truth, he looks back at me and I give him a sad look trying to hell him not to tell them
"Like what?" Mum asks curiously
"In his dream he was immortal" Ianto mutters, that's all thy need to know, I'm glad Ianto didn't spill the rest, the truth is much worse than the lie.
Im still awake, it's 3:07 in the bloody morning and I can't sleep I'm wide awake, I look over and see that Jack is as well
"Bored?" He asks me as our gazes meet
"yeah... Two years of sleep, I'm really bored can we go for a walk?" I ask, he agrees and then helps me up and we walk quietly down the hallway
"Did you hear her?" Jack asks, I know he's talking about if I heard mum when I was in a coma
"Not until closer to the end... When I slept I could hear her I didn't understand at first but in the end I did..." I sigh as I limp along side him
"How did you do it? If you were dreaming, you must've been attached a thought" Jack explains
"I kept asking myself if I was a Harkness or Foxley... I asked that question for two years and then up realized, Harknesses don't go into comas... Foxley's go out in a bang" I chuckle
"What do you remember the most?" Jack asks me
"The truth is much worse than the lie..."
