Okay, so this will be my first Blacklist FanFic. I'm not really sure where it's going. I needed to write something because season 3B was just the stuff of my nightmares. Especially since realising that I was going to be part of the Lizzington club after I started watching the show this year. I'm going to try and continue on from the end of season 3, although if I'm honest I pretty much avoided any Tom scenes because I'm not a fan of the character or his relationship with Liz. Please leave reviews and constructive criticism. I'd love to be able to improve wherever I can. As always, I do not own the Blacklist.
Liz was left reeling. The only sound she could hear was the blood pumping in her ears. This man stood in front of her, who had his goons forcibly remove her from her home, where her daughter slept, claimed to be her father. Her brain was foggy from shock, she couldn't even reply. After a few minutes the fog lifted and she started to analyse the situation. It wasn't looking good for her. This man clearly had no concerns with leaving a defenceless child behind, her blood started to boil at the implications of it all. And the only man who she would have put all her faith into saving her thought she was dead.
She looked up at the tall man. His stony face glaring back at her. Her eyes narrowed and she shifted in the chair, "I thought you were dead." Her response flat, devoid of any emotion.
"Yes well, being shot by your little girl while a house is on fire would leave any decent person with half a brain thinking exactly the same thing." His lip quirked upwards on one side, but his face was still cold.
Liz fidgeted again, she couldn't get a read off of him. She couldn't tell what would set him off if anything, so she went on the defensive, "I don't remember anything from the fire, what do you want with me?"
"We'll get to that, don't worry. But first I want to get to know my daughter personally. I mean I've been watching from afar but with all that security Reddington had surrounding you, how could I get close enough?" He spat the name with venom and Liz noticeably flinched.
"It was for my protection. And it looks like he did the right thing." Liz literally growled. She cleared her throat and started rubbing her scar. She was nervous and lashing out, it just wasn't going to get her anywhere. After taking a few calming breaths and clearing her mind she directed her gaze back to the man. She saw what she thought was a flash of anger cross his face before he schooled his expression back to one of impassiveness.
"So, I see we're not going to get anywhere here today. Maybe if I come back tomorrow, or a little later today you'll be a little less hostile." He turned and mumbled something to the guard left in the room with her before leaving without a second glance.
From what she could tell he was detached, and the thought made her skin crawl. He obviously had a plan for her, but what she had no clue. Her only hope now was that his plan wasn't anything that resulted in her death, and that hopefully Tom had Agnes.
Raymond left the small house by the beach with a noticeable slam of the door. The house was trashed and now Elizabeth was in danger. All because Kate took matters of great importance into her own hands and let Lizzie believe she would be safe. Of course he was furious with Lizzie too. She'd made him think she was dead. He'd been suicidal and had nearly destroyed himself over her death. He'd practically stomped back to the car. He needed to get to one of his safe houses and start gathering any and all information he could on Kirk's whereabouts and what exactly had and possibly could happen to Lizzie and Agnes.
Dembe slid into the driver's seat whilst Kate cautiously climbed in next to him. With fire in his eyes, he turned to her and practically growled at her as Dembe pulled away, "If this goes wrong Kate and Elizabeth and Agnes fail to make it out of this I hope you're prepared for what comes next."
Kate turned to him, without hesitation and responded, "Trust me Raymond, dear, if they don't make it out okay I wouldn't be able to live with myself anyway. Do what you wish."
Silence fell in the car as Dembe pulled up to a small looking villa, it looked like nothing from the outside, but it held everything that Reddington needed to save his Lizzie.
I apologise for this, I'm hoping it all starts to pull together in the next chapter. Please leave reviews and let me know what you think. I'm not too pleased with this and don't feel it's brilliant, but I need Lizzington in my life.
