I didn't create Chuck or Burn Notice, I'm just playing with their characters for my enjoyment. Don't sue me :)

Chuck opened his eyes slowly, trying to recall why his head was pounding. He looked up to see a man standing over him. Chuck's eyes were still trying to focus, but could see the man had brown hair and was wearing all black.

"Casey, I know you don't like me very much, but did you really have to knock me out?"

"I'm not Agent Casey," the man said.

Chuck attempted to back away but realized he was sitting in a chair, tied up. He also noticed he was in an abandoned warehouse.

"Who are you?" Chuck questioned. "And what do you want?"

"You're the Intersect."

"Okay, that sort of answers my second question. Well, not really. For all I know, you want to use me in your evil plan to take over the world. And I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case, as I'm tied up to a chair and feel very, very threatened right now."

The man began to laugh as he walked around Chuck, standing behind his chair. Chuck squinted his eyes in preparation of something violent, but was surprised to feel his restraints being cut loose.

"I'm confused," said Chuck as he stood up, turning to face the man.

"If I wanted to use you for criminal reasons," the man replied, "you'd probably be dead by now."

"Is that supposed to make me feel any better?"

"You've seen what Fulcrum can do... so have I. They need to be stopped."

"Why should I help you? You kidnap me, knock me out, tie me up... and I'm supposed to trust you? I've trusted too many of the wrong people."

"You trust Agent Walker?"

"Yes, but how did you know--"

The man handed Chuck a cell phone. "Call her. Ask her if she remembers a Michael Westen."
