The Perfect Life

Chapter 1:

"So, after the debrief, I'll come by and pick you up?" Vaughn asked Sydney. "Ok." She opened the door and stepped out of the car. "Bye." She called to him. She fiddled through her purse to find her key and stepped into her apartment.

"Hey, Francie! I'm back from my trip!"

Francie was on the sofa, reading a magazine. "Hey, Sweetie, how was your trip?"

"Ok."

Sydney thought to herself, "She's acting weird." She dug through the freezer and found ice cream. "Yum, coffee ice cream."

She sat on the sofa and began eating and checking her voicemail. "Sydney, it's me, and I just found provaciliane in the bathroom and I... ok, just think about it I think that the double is Francie." "Oh, my god, Will," Syd thought. She quickly thought of a way to figure out who Francie really was. She remembered one day on campus that she had offered Francie some coffee ice cream and she had tried it and hated it.

"Want some?" She asked.

"Sure." Francie replied.

"Oh, my god, no!" She thought. I've just got to change out of these clothes." She calmly walked to her bedroom and reached under her bed to get her gun.

The doorbell rang. "Vaughn's back!" She thought.

"Come on in, it's open!" Francie yelled.

A few minutes later, Sark and Francie walked in, with their guns drawn.

"Hello, Bristow." Sark greeted.

"Sark." Sydney said.

"Put the gun down!" They demanded.

"No." She said.

Sark suddenly grabbed Francie by her hair and pushed his gun to her head. "Good bye, Allison!" He shouted before pulling the trigger.

Meanwhile, back inside Vaughn's car, his phone rang.

"This is Vaughn."

"This is Kendall. The debriefing is canceled. Sark has given us valuable Intel about the location and identity of the second double. The government has pardoned him, so we let him go."

"Who's the double's latest victim?"

"Francie Calfo."

"Oh, my god!"

He made a fast U-Turn and raced back to Sydney's apartment.

Back at Sydney's apartment, Sark was asking Sydney questions.

"Why don't you like me?" He asked.

"Maybe because you tried to kill Will, or maybe because, you almost killed Vaughn."

"Oh, there you go again, shooting your mouth off about that Michael Vaughn. You actually think he's going to come and save you now? Guess again!"

Vaughn was about to open the door when he heard two shots.

Then everything went dark for both of them.S
