A/N: Well this is the first time writing a FanFic in years! But I had this idea in my head after episode 4.13 and couldn't stop thinking about it. So decided to just write it. Enjoy!

Title: Chuck & Sarah versus the Legion

Rating: T – Some chapters will contain violence, language, and minor adult themes.

Summary: When a new enemy threat arises; will Sarah be willing to give up everything to stop them? And will Chuck be willing to let her go? Completely Charah.

Genre: Angst/Action/Romance

Timeframe: This story takes place before episode "Chuck Versus the Masquerade"; so Volkoff is no longer a threat but still mentioned. I have taken the liberty of creating a new enemy cause there always has to be a bad guy right?

Other Notes: Chapters will switch back and forth between Chuck and Sarah. They will be titled accordingly. Example: Chuck versus. …. Or Sarah versus ….

Disclaimer: I do not own anything in the Chuck universe, unfortunately...

Chapter 1: Chuck versus the Silencer

Chuck landed on his back with a loud gasp. The shear force of the large man's kick knocked him clear off the stair he was standing on sending him tumbling down the rest of the stairwell. With the wind knocked out of him, Chuck struggled to catch his breath and flash. A foot slammed into his chest shoving him back onto the floor as he slowly got into a sitting position.

"You know Mr. Carmichael… you shouldn't have come here." The man's thick Italian accent rolled of his tongue. He smirked as he swiftly kicked Chuck in the ribs before squatting down next to him and tapped his cheek playfully before grabbing his chin roughly, making Chuck look him in the eye.

Chuck just groaned, staring at him. He recognized the man's face from earlier that evening; Diego. Darin Conti's head of security. It was supposed to be an easy mission; use Conti's birthday party to gain access to his Villa, break into his private office and download a virus into the computer to trace his money and hopefully associate activity. Overall it was a pretty easy and standard mission. The one thing he hadn't accounted for was Diego. The man was excellent at his job and had one hell of a kick.

He couldn't flash, he tried but the pain was too great. His eyes darted around frantically.

Diego smiled, "she's not coming for you." Chuck's eyes snapped back to him. "My men are taking care of her."

"And now Mr. Carmichael… or is it Agent?" He stood up slowly. "No matter really." Diego pulled slowly pulled a 9mm from his shoulder holster and slowly attached a silencer so not to alarm any of the party guests down in the ballroom.

"Flash Chuck… Flash!" Chuck told himself and made another attempt to get up to his feet. His actions were met with a strong heel to his face. He tasted blood in his mouth. It was official; now everything hurt.

He needed to pull himself together and flash. For Sarah, he needed to get to her. Chuck spit the blood from his mouth and sat up. He didn't even feel it happen, just heard the soft sound of the bullet passing through the silencer. The shear-impact of the bullet into his shoulder knocked him back onto the floor with a sharp painful scream.

"You know I think I'm going to enjoy this. My employer wanted me to finish you quickly. But pain is much more fun." Diego cocked the gun, "what next? The other shoulder? A kneecap maybe? Or possibly the stomach? I heard that is a painful way to die."

Diego pointed the gun towards Chuck's head. He couldn't help but stare at the barrel of the gun aimed at him. "Goodbye Mr. Carmichael." Chuck squeezed his eyes shut quickly.

He remembered hearing a gun fire, but there was no pain… was it supposed to? If he was shot in the head wouldn't he be dead? Wouldn't it have hurt? He slowly opened one eye looking around Diego was no longer standing over him, but laying next to him in a pool of blood.

"CHUCK!"

Chuck let out the breath he had been holding when he heard Sarah yelling his name. He went to sit up but immediately laid back down feeling lightheaded from the blood loss due to his shoulder wound.

Sarah dashed down the stairs towards him as fast as her heels and dress would allow her. She and Chuck had been split up in all the confusion, and after taking care of the three wimpy guards sent to stop her she went off to find Chuck. The sight of seeing a gun pointed at Chuck's head scared her. What if she hadn't gotten there in time to shoot the man down? Chuck would be dead.

She dropped to her knees and cupped his face in her hands, kissing him lightly she slowly pulled back and stared at him. "You saved me… again." Chuck tried to smirk but ended up turning his head to the side and coughed up blood.

Sarah's eyes went wide, she had been so caught up in everything she hadn't noticed the gunshot to Chucks shoulder. "Oh my god you're bleeding!" She quickly let go of his face and put pressure on his gunshot wound. "You'll be ok!" She let go of one hand and radioed for extraction.

"Chuck we got to get outside, now." Sarah stared down at him. Chuck just nodded and went to sit up. She helped him to his feet and draped his arm over her shoulder. "There is back exit not far from here." She glanced at him, he was getting pale and his eyes continued to flutter shut. "Chuck! You have to stay with me, ok?" He just nodded.

If he passed out, there was no way she'd be able to get him out and to a hospital by herself. She continued to look at him as they made their way out of the villa; he looked worse. He had to be ok. There were no ifs or buts about it.

She would not loose him.

A/N: So what do you think so far? I know a slightly short first chapter but just trying to get my foot back into the fanfic door. :) The next few chapters might not have a lot of action/angst, but there is plenty of Chuck/Sarah that will help build up to the first...well lets just say arc in the story. Hope you like so far. Reviews are always welcome and they keep me motivated!
