Disclaimer: I do not own Chuck! I wish I did, but I don't...
Sarah felt the air still as she laid, frozen, straining for any noise. The faint chirping of the grasshoppers outside her room was the only sound her highly sensitive ears could hear. But then, almost out of nowhere, she heard the faint 'whoosh' of air, just for a second, and all was still once more. Most people would play it off as a result of paranoia, but Sarah Walker was not most people. She knew that something or more specifically someone was hiding somewhere in her room, she could feel it in the air.
She continued lying in her bed, occasionally rustling in her bed before lying perfectly still, waiting for a signal, a mistake. And then it occurred, the faint sound of a single pin drop. Her eyes widened as she jumped out of bed, in the dark, she made out the faint figure of the masked robber. She jumped into combat mode as she punched the perpetrator in the face, hard. She retaliated by swiftly tripping Sarah over with one leg before giving her four consecutive punches in the stomach. At this point, a smirk was playing on Sarah's face as she jumped up and tackled the masked figure, resulting in both of them tumbling to the ground.
"Why are you here, Carina?" Sarah whispered, out of breath. She turned to the figure who was now taking off the ski mask, revealing her golden brown hair. Her piercing blue eyes stared back, an amused smirk played on her lips.
"How's life, Sarah?" She asked in a mocking tone. Carina has never liked this place. As she described it, this life was as if a "yawn could yawn".
"What are you doing here, Carina?" Sarah demanded, regaining her breath finally. She was not in the best mood right now. Not after the day she had, trying to rescue Chuck from the evil clutches of Pita girl. And the imminent talk that was bound to occur after that stint on the roof with Chuck. Right now, Sarah wanted nothing more than to sleep it off.
"Grouchy, aren't we? Well, that's expected. I mean considering your boring cover." Carina retaliated, chuckling slightly at the thought. Sarah groaned in protest as she got up before making her way under the covers.
"What are you doing?" Carina asked, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. Sarah proceeded to put on her blindfold, putting her head on one side of her hands.
"If you aren't going to answer my question, then I'm sleeping. I have a big day tomorrow." Sarah said with nonchalance.
"Big day? Here? In boring town? Isn't that like, an oxymoron or something?" Carina asked, chuckling. She loved to make fun of how boring Sarah's cover life was. This seemed to irritate Sarah further as she let out an angry sigh, ignoring her comment.
"Oh come on! You know I'm kidding! Fine! I'm here indefinitely on a mission to find this rare stone." Carina tried to amend, a smirk playing on her face as she saw Sarah move slightly. Finally after a few moments, Sarah got up, finally processing what she had just been told.
"Indefinitely?" Sarah asked, a smile playing on her lips. She was on the verge on breaking down in laughter.
"Yes…" Carina groaned, making her way onto the bed. She sat on the edge as Sarah scooted closer.
"Well then, welcome to boring town." Sarah busted out laughing as she watched the tormented expression on Carina's face.
