Disclaimer: I Don't Own Nikita

Spoilers: Set a little after 2.14. It's slightly based on my spoiler spec from pictures and ep discriptions that Percy escaped and he's out there trying to gain power.

For a recovering addict, Alex found herself in clubs with a bar little too frequently for her liking. It was a constant struggle to not take a drink but she stood strong. It helped that she always had to be focused on the mission every time she was in a bar. This time was no different. She was on a mission as well. It wasn't an official mission of course. No one actually assigned her this mission. It was a mission of importance none the less. She had assigned herself to it. Percy was on the loose and she had been on the trail of him and had discovered that he was still trying to gain Division back, by whatever means necessary. She found out that he was targeting Oversights family members.

She had been sitting there searching through all of the amped up people grinding each other until she saw her. Her target was acquired. She had long brown dark hair with green and purple streaks. Her hair was flipping wildly all around as she danced with two guys at once. She was scantily clad with a short leather skirt and a leapard print halter top. She seemed to be enjoying herself being in this hot guy sandwich. Alex envied her and any girls who can get laid back like that and completely decadently enjoy themselves. Anytime she did anything like that she was undercover.

The girl stopped and went to the bar and gulped down a shot. That was Alex's cue to go introduce herself. So she said,

"Someone knows how to party."

She smiled, "It's an art."

"Totally." Alex said.

Alex was already to play the part of eager wide eyed young partier but then that went down the drain when she saw Sean Pierce walking their way.

Alex had to think on her feet quick.

"Uh! What is my brother doing here?" The girl said annoyed.

"Overprotective?"

"Big time."

"He means well."

She stared at Alex for a moment perplexed and asked, "Do I know you? You look familiar."

"No, but we have something in common, well, someone in common. "

She looked at Sean.

Then Sean looked at Alex surprised.

"What are doing here?" Sean yelled.

"It's called having fun!"

Sean looked at her and then at Alex appalled.

Then he got a good look at his sister and yelled, "What are you wearing?"

Then Alex smiled and touched Sean on the shoulder and said, "Oh, sweetie, be nice, she is your sister after all."

Sean shot Alex an incredulous look.

"Oh! Seany you actually have a real live girlfriend? That's great! I was beginning to wonder if you bat for the other team, you being a navy man and all."

"Bridget?"

"What?"

"Can you give me and my a uh girlfriend a minute?"

"Sure."

Then Sean grabbed Alex by the hand and pulled her away from the crowd. Then he let go of her.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Sean asked Alex.

"Oh, you know, getting to know your sister. She's so sweet."

"Alex!"

"Fine. I found out she was Percy's next target."

Sean huffed annoyed, "Why didn't you just tell me?"

"Honestly, I didn't feel like talking to you about it. I mean I was still pissed at you for our last conversation."

Sean rolled his eyes.

Their latest fight about her own legacy and family was still fresh on her mind. Amanda had suggested she show herself to the world as heir to Zetrov and she agreed with her. This way she could really get back at Semak by taking the company from him. Sean didn't agree and only saw it as a way to put her in danger. Alex didn't like him trying to decide stuff for her.

"Fine, you're mad at me but it is still my family. I don't want you putting them in the middle of all of this."

"They're already in this and you know it. You didn't come here for a regular family visit. You came here to protect her, same as me. So let me protect her." Alex said.

"Fine, but we're doing this my way. " Sean assisted.

Alex furrowed her eyebrows and looked at him skeptically,

"Your way?"

"Yeah, my way!" Sean said firmly.

His demeanor slightly shifted and he smiled and said, "Now take my hand."

"Why?" Alex asked.

"Because miss 'think on her feet' it was your idea to pretend to be my girlfriend. So we should act like a couple and couples hold hands."

Alex gave Sean her hand and he grasped onto it his fingers around hers.

"I think your strategy is a good one. I don't want Bridget to know she's in danger. So we should go with this cover as a brother in town to introduce his girl to his sister while we keep an eye out for the Guardians or anyone suspicious."

"Sounds like a plan."

Alex grasped onto his hand and leaned onto his shoulder now ready to go in full on girlfriend mode. She got ready for the tedious task of pretending to be Sean's girlfriend. That was her new mission now. Some missions were so difficult.
