A Reunion of Sorts
This is a story set after the end of season 4 which sees Nikita, Michael and the rest of the gang reunite, and naturally, chaos ensues.
Chapter 1
"Seymour, come on, you have another interview about Shadownet in like a half hour" shouts Sonya through the bathroom door of their apartment"
"Chillax Sonya, I'll be ready, besides, the interview is only in the hotel across the street"
"I know that, but we wouldn't want you to turn up looking like an imbecile would we?"
"Are you saying I look like an imbecile normally?"
"No of course not, hey have you heard from any of the others lately?"
"No why are you asking?" asks Birkhoff.
"We haven't heard from them in a while, I was just wondering?"
"Well for starters we'd have heard if anything had happened to Alex, she is famous now and Michael and Nikki are adults, they can look after themselves, so stop your bellyaching"
"Fine, which shirt do you want?"
"The blue one"
"Uh!"
"Please"
"That's more like it"
Meanwhile backstage in a New York City theatre Alex is fixing her makeup when Sam comes into the room.
"Hey, you ready, it's almost time?" he asks her.
"Yeah, I'm coming"
Then Alex gets up from her chair and the two walk out of the room together.
"So, you said you wanted to buy a house right?"
"Yeah, what about it?" questions Alex.
"Well I narrowed down a list of the cities that you said you liked and I've come up with Austin, Miami, L.A. and here in New York"
"Cool, hey how much longer are we in New York for?"
"Three days, one of which is a day off for you"
"Could you maybe find me some apartments to look at, nothing too fancy, but I would like it to have a good view?" asks Alex
"Sure, I'll set up a few places"
"Thank you"
"Well, this is you then"
On the stage is a man who says "And that is why, this year's humanitarian award for services to Charity goes to Alexandra Udinov"
Alex then walks onto the stage, accepts the award and in her speech she says "Hello everyone, first of all I want to say thank you for this award, it means so much to me that my efforts are being recognised. Helping charities has always been close to my heart, and I mean all sorts, from serving soup to the homeless to giving money to pay for a vital piece of equipment. I believe it is important to help those less fortunate than you which is why I think that everyone should set aside at least one day of the year to help out, whether it be at a fun day or something else. Thank you"
Alex walks off to rapturous applause and when she has left the stage she turns to Sam who asks her what she wants to do now.
"Let's go get something to eat, I'm starving"
"You got it"
And so the two of them walked out of the theatre, got into a blacked out car and head off to find food.
In Medellín, Colombia Nikita and Michael are sneaking around a warehouse, trying to find a way in without alerting anyone. They eventually get in and slowly head towards where they hear sounds coming from.
"One, two, three" whispers Michael and on the last count the two of them rush into the room where they see four men who are putting large quantities of the cocaine that is growing there in to the back of a van.
"Alright, out your hands up and step away from the van and the drugs" orders Nikita.
"And why would we do that?" says one of the men.
"Did you not hear what the lady said, step away, or we will shoot you"
"Yo are not the only ones with weapons, kill them" orders another man.
Suddenly a fight ensues and lots of fires are shot, a few moments later when three of the men are unconscious Nikita and Michael are taking cover, reloading their guns when Nikita says "No aren't you glad that we're not bored", this causes him to smile and then the two of them run from their hiding place and knock out the third man. Minutes later the Colombian police storm the place and arrest all then men.
In the car park Nikita and Michael watch as the men are loaded into the back of a van.
"What next?" asks Michael
"Well ..."
Nikita couldn't finish her sentence because her phone starting ringing, she answers it - it's Sonya.
"Hello, Nikita?"
"Sonya, hi, how are you?"
"I'm good, is Michael there?"
"He is, hold on let me put you on speaker"
Nikita then presses a button on the phone to put it on loudspeaker.
"Hi, Sonya" says Michael
"Hello Michael"
"So, why'd you call?"
"I'm trying to set up a surprise for Seymour, his birthday is in a week, and I was wondering if you'd come along, I was thinking dinner and a few drinks at our apartment"
"Sounds cool, where do you live?"
"London"
"As in England!" exclaims Michael.
"Yeah, I got a new job working for a high end tech company, it pays really well, so we moved here, you'll love, please come"
"We will, when is his birthday?"
"The 19th, so 9 days"
"We'll get there, call you when we've landed, k"
"Ok, see you then, bye"
"Bye Sonya"
Nikita then puts her phone away and turns to Michael, saying "Birkhoff's birthday, this should be interesting"
