Chapter One:

(24th Month of Confusion)

(Time: 7pm-8pm)

(Day: Monday)

"Shit!" The young agent swore at the situation that sprung up.

Claire Edwards was in trouble now.

Deciding to do this alone looked like it might be more fun, but without backup, it made it seem like the enemy had the advantage. The enemy had more people, better weapons, and excellent strategies. But they had one problem...

They had forgotten they were dealing with a Dangerous Demon- a very Powerful Assassin.

A girl with dangerous brownish-black eyes and dark brown hair, named Claire Edwards.

And she was pissed off... "Extremely" pissed off.

As she inserted some magazines into her guns, she checked to make sure she had plenty of Kunai-Knives. The Kunai-Knives were a special weapon set that were made of pure silver, given to her by her Watcher-Sire: her teacher and trainer.

The knives were special to her, and they never left her side-no matter what happened to her or in special cased events.

That's why she got herself in the position she was in now:

On a balcony, in a factory warehouse. She had to steal some data plans from an enemy organization, to stop them from destroying her team's computer files, and to keep them from tracking her.

She pulled out a gun, and got ready to aim.

She saw a target and less than a minute, started firing at the enemy. Shouts rang out, as bullets started flying all around the warehouse. "As usual, they can never shoot right."... "So they can never keep up with my speed." Claire thought as she used the "THE HASTE": A special technique that kinda looks like teleportation...

But you move faster than the eye can see.

...

But only Vampire's and Demon's are allowed to use this move.

"Can't you move faster or something?" She thought, as she dodged the bullets that were aimed at her. "At least make this interesting, I'm starting to get bored!" Before the enemy could reload...

She attacked!

She hit, kicked, and basically ...

...

...

beat the living crap out of them.

Before they could recover, she found the holder with the disk's data plans.

The one she had to retrieve.

Giving a victory smirk, she ran off with the disk. As she pressed her pager to signal for her to be picked up, she heard voices not far behind her.

"Dammit!" "They must have recovered more quickly than I thought!"She thought, as she got her gun ready. As she was preparing to fire, she felt someone behind her. She didn't even have time to think, before a hand covered her mouth and throat, preventing her from shouting or breathing. She tried to break free, but the attacker was stronger and better trained than her.

He dragged her into the shadows, behind some boxes. She still kept struggling and trying to break free from him. "Stop struggling and keep quiet, right now!" the low harsh voice said to her.

She refused and still struggled.

"Never, you stupid son of a bitch!"She thought in her mind.

As she was about to bite down on his hand, she heard something, she thought she'd never hear again.

"Dammit Claire, stop struggling!"

When Claire heard these words, her heart skipped a beat.

"Oh No!"...

"No, this can't be real!"...

"This can't be real!"...

"It's not him!"... She thought panickly in her mind, as he let go of her mouth and throat. As he spun her around to face him, she looked into the eyes of the one who she thought was gone forever.

Claire stared, shocked, as she faced Jack Bauer's angry glare.

"This can't be happening!" She screamed in her mind. "This can't be!"

Before she had time to speak, she saw a look in his eyes that quickly made her shut her own eyes.

"He's gonna kill me, I just know it!" She thought in her mind, knowing from her experience working with him.

"I'm gonna die, right here" – "Killed by a C.T.U. agent!"

"Killed by Jack Bauer!" She told herself, as she waited for the deed to be done.

But instead, she felt herself being pulled toward something. Drawn to something warm and familiar. She then felt something come around her back. She then realized what was happening.

"He's hugging me!"..."Very weird and uncomfortable!" She thought as he held her so close to him, she could hear his heartbeat and wondered if he could her panicking, beating heart.

"Where the hell have you been, Claire?" He asked her in a low voice, but without the anger from before. "You just disappeared one day, without leaving a note or anything." "What happened to you?"

Claire paused to think for a minute and said "I'm sorry Jack, but I can't explain it for now...but I will soon." She told him in a voice that was like a soft-low whisper.

"I know you must wait, but please for my sake stay away from me." She said, as she started to secretly pull out a hypodermic needle out from under her sleeve.

"Why?" He asked her with a confused look on her face. "Because, I'm not Claire Edward!" She said, as she stabbed the hypodermic needle into his back. Jack screamed in pain, when the sharp object was jabbed into his skin. But before Claire could inject the chemicals into his body, Jack pushed her off, making her go flying.

With a painful groan, he pulled out the deadly weapon from his back, then crushed it beneath his foot.

He turned to Claire, who was getting up from flying across the room. As he started to grab for his gun, she started to grab for a Kunai Knife. Just like Jack Bauer, Claire was strong enough to attack him and be able to keep up with him.

He was fast, but she was faster, and that made her experienced and dangerous. If he had no choice but to fight her, he was willing to take that risk.

Claire's hands trembled, as she realized the mess she was in. she didn't want to hurt him, but her orders were to get rid of any obstacles. Her mind was confused at what to do. But then, she remembered that she was forced to do this against her will, at the cost of never seeing Jack again, ...

Alive.

So, she did what was best in her heart.

She put back her weapon and stood up as she faced Jack in the middle of the situation. "I'm sorry Jack, but I can't do it." She said, as she walked over to him, slowly. "I just can't kill you, not even as an order." "I'll give you the disk for the director." She said, as she handed him the data disk. "S.D.6. will never get their hands on it."

Jack then realized, with the strange events of Claire vanishing. Claire stole the data-disk for a C.T.U. mission: posing as a double agent for S.D.6. to get the disk, she had to disappear from C.T.U. for a while, to acquire the disk.

As soon as she got it, she was suppose to destroy S.D.6. and come back to C.T.U. for delivering the disk.

That's why she never left him any knowledge about the mission. She knew he would be dead against her doing this kind of mission... one that would be risky and dangerous, for someone like her.

"Jack!", "Front in center, coz we got company!" Claire shouted to him, a he snapped back into reality. He heard the click of Claire putting ammo into her twin TAG 17 Pistol's and knew very soon, there was going to be hell over the damn place.

Jack prepared his Elite Pistol, as Claire waited for any orders to be given to her from Jack.

Claire was getting impatient from waiting to attack. Even though the enemy was S.D.6 field agents, she wanted to some major ass-kicking right now. If she didn't get some orders soon, she'd probably explode any second now. Then, out of nowhere, Claire sensed another presence in the area. She let out a deep growl from her throat, as she spied the S.D.6. agent take her aim at Claire and Jack.

Claire smirked, as she called out "A little late to be joining us on the fun eh, Sydney Bristow?"

The women gave no reply to the question.

Instead, she fired at Claire, who dodged the shot quickly.

"I give no answers to traitors like you...

...You pathetic-naïve, PIECE OF CRAP!"...

..."SOMEONE WHO IS NOT EVEN HUMANLY FIT TO BE CALLED A GOVEREMENT AGENT!"

...

"JUST LOOKING AT YOU MAKES ME SICK!" Sydney yelled at Claire in angry rage.

Sydney knew she had to destroy Jack for the mission to be successful, but killing a government agent seemed kind of wrong to her.

On the other hand, ... she'll get the chance to kill that traitor Claire Edward for free, ...

So why let this chance slip away and just grab it by the horns?

"I might get promoted for killing her and Jack at the same time, ...

So why the hell not?" she thought, as she aimed her gun at the two targets.

Looking at the situation they were in, Jack knew he had no choice ...

but to give the ok for Claire to attack.

He just hoped nothing stupid would happen to Jeopardize the mission. Jack walked up to Claire and put a hand to her shoulder, to grab her attention.

"Alright Claire, you'd better start getting rid of them right away!" "We wasted enough time here." Jack told Claire in a low voice.

Claire nodded in agreement, to the command she was just ordered to do by Jack.

She grinned, as she ran up to the enemy and started firing her twin TAG 17 Pistol's at every enemy agent she could find.

She fired everywhere until her guns were empty.

The enemy raced to her to attack for the kill. But before she could shoot, Jack fire his weapon at them, as Claire's backup.

"Thanks, Jack!" Claire said, as she reloaded her guns with fresh ammo in less than a minute.

"You alright?" He asked her from his position as backup.

"Yeah, just a little tired and bored." She replied, as she saw an enemy come up to her. She gave him a side kick in the stomach, another one in the shoulder, and another in the head.

"But I wish this mission", ...

(A punch in the head)

"Had a little more fun" ...

(A round-house kick to the second enemy from behind)

"Then beating up" ...

(A leg swipe-kick to them all)

"Lame" ...

(Another punch)

"Idiotic"...

(More side kicking the enemies to pulp.)

"S.D.6 MORON'S!" One final jump kick to the face, and the enemy was down.

A shot rang out from behind Claire, as she turned around to see an enemy agent drop dead to the ground. Claire rolled her eyes at Jack in annoyance, for shooting the man, who almost was about to attack her off guard.

"Show-off!" She muttered under her breath, as she pulled out a device-box. She threw it to Jack, who caught it with one hand.

"Hey Jack? ..." Claire asked in a dark tone.

"Do you mind if you do me a small favor for me?" ... "Can you do your mission and finish it quickly, while I finish these bastards off?" She said as her hands started to curl and uncurl to what looked like claws. Her eyes glowed with fire, as she stared at all the enemy agents that were closing in on her.

"Because these idiots, are really starting to get me pissed off...RIGHT NOW!" She growled darkly, as her face turned into an angry snarl.

"EVERY LAST DAMN ONE OF THEM!" She said as she ran off to attack the enemy, viscously.

Jack nodded and went to do his own mission. He'd meet up with her when she was done, or if she needed help from backup.

But for now...

He'd let her just be left alone, doing her own thing...

While she burned off some energy.

Claire roared, as she slashed at the enemy men like paper. She jumped out of the way to dodge enemy fire.

"YOU DARE SHOOT AT ME?" She thought angerly, as she used "THE HASTE" to move even faster.

"YOU DAMN MORONS!" She yelled as she slashed the men with her claws, all over them many times.

More agents came to attack, but Claire fired her guns at them, until they were empty. While the enemy reloaded, she used "THE HASTE" to move from box to box at a fast speed, while attacking the agents.

She punched,

Kicked,

Hit,

Clawed,

Jumped and attacked with every bit of strength she had. She was really breathing hard with exhaustion, when Sydney came in for the kill. She tried to kick Claire, but Claire blocked her attack.

"DAMN BITCH!" Sydney spat out, as she attacked again, to be blocked again.

Claire glared at her with eyes that burned a blood red.

"Who do you think I am, little girl?"...

"A stuck-up agent wannabe, who loves being used by people like you and then marked as a traitor?"...

"Or someone who's playing around with people's minds for shits and giggles?" Claire said in a dark growly voice, as she walked over to Sydney.

Then, Claire started to laugh.

It came out dark and evil, like a she-devil.

"DON'T MAKE ME LAUGH, YOU STUPID FOOL!"

"YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ME, SO KEEP YOUR DAMN MOUTH SHUT!" She said angerly to Sydney, as she punched her in the head.

Sydney's head snapped back, but recovered quickly and counter-attacked Claire with a hard roundhouse attack. Claire flew into the wall, hardly and fell...

Only to be smacked onto the floor. She groaned in pain, as she forced herself up, to continue the fight.

Sydney stared at her in confusion.

"What the hell are you?" ... "You shouldn't be even moving, after that kick!" She said in a harsh tone.

"You're right!" ...

"BUT NOT UNTIL I'VE KICKED YOUR ASS FIRST!"

Claire told her, as she used "THE HASTE" once again in battle.

"Where the hell?" ... Sydney thought as she searched for her enemy.

"WHERE ARE YOU?"...

...

"SHOW YOURSELF!" Sydney demanded.

...

...

"Behind you!" A voice whispered in her ear.

Sydney gasped in shock, as she was thrown through the air and landed in a box pile. Sydney stared at Claire, as she got up knowing she was defeated. She pressed on her pager, to be retrieved for her and her team.

"THIS ISN'T OVER CLAIRE!" Sydney yelled to her, as she escaped from the wherehouse.

Claire stared for a couple of seconds, then fell to the floor, passed out.

She knew, she had used too much power this time.

Somewhere in the back of her mind, she thought heard Jack call her name from someplace far away.

"Don't come near me Jack!" ...

"Don't come!" She thought in her mind, until it went blank.
