Summary: Jack needs to learn to be a little more delicate. A double drabble.
When Owen caught the outline of the man standing at the edge of the cemetery he didn't have to wonder why he was here. He only wanted one thing, to finish what he'd started by totally discrediting Owen's recollections of the day Katie had been killed by that alien thing.
He didn't understand how the man had done it - wiped the CCTV cameras, removed the dead bodies of the surgeons who'd been operating, and somehow erased every last shred that any of them had ever existed. The scale of it was huge and the more he thought about it, the more impossible it felt that anyone could do this. Owen was probably the last remnant to be dealt with. He wouldn't stop trying to prove there'd been a cover up, which made him a risk.
Owen wouldn't go down without a fight. He didn't care if this guy was MI5 or CIA. Owen was going to get answers even if he had to force them out of him. He wouldn't die wondering why his fiance had died and the whole thing covered up. All those people wouldn't just die for nothing. He'd bust this secret, and the man's face, apart.
