Micheal woke-up to find Birkhoff pasted out by the computer and Alex and Nikita not home.

"Birkhoff!" Micheal shoke his sholder furiously. Birhoff woke-up with a jump.

"Wow man you can't just..." Before Birkhoff could finish Micheal inturuptted him.

"What happened last night?" Micheal looked around the room."'Where are they?"He asked, Birkhoff thought for a minute then remembered what he had last heard from Nikita.

"Umm... Niki couldn't find Alex so she went to the back exit..." Micheal inturupted Birkhoff once more.

"Wow, Wow... Wait, she went out the back?" Micheal said very scared and dramatic.

"Ya, I mean..." Birkhoff had no words to finish that sentence. Micheal grabbed a comm and tried to reach Nikita.

"Nikita...Nikita!" After Micheal had gotten no answer he started pacing back and forth.

"I knew it! I knew that something was going to happen! I knew..." Micheal was cutoff by Birkhoff.

"Hey Nikita is a great fighter and we have stuff like this happen all the time."Birkhoff tried to get this into Micheal's head. Micheal stopped pacing and looked at him "We'll find them...Ok?" Birkhoff said looking at Micheal. Micheal nodded and they headed toward the computer.

Nikita and Alex soon found themselves in Amanda's lair. They weren't with eachother but right now Amanda was with Nikita. Amanda could just predict the first words that were going to come out of Nikita's mouth and sure enough she was right.

"Where's Alex?" Nikita asked Amanda not in the mood for any of her games. Nikita was atatched to the wall with chains. She could feel her feet barley touching the floor and as much as she wanted to attack Amanda she obivously could not.

"I thought you might ask that but you don't need to worry, She's just in the other room she didn't wake up as fast as you." Amanda said completly focused on Nikita and her every move. Nikita thought about what to say but she had no words."You know what the worst part is Nikita. I bet Birkhoff and Micheal are already looking for you" Nikita was confused. Why was this a bad thing.

"That's not a bad thing Amanda. It just means people care about me... I guess you wouldn't know what that feels like." Nikita said looking at Amanda, proud of the words she had chosen.

"Nikita, none of those people would care about you if it wasn't for me." This got Nikita to raise there voice a little.

"You know what? Not everything good in my life is beause of you. You didn't make me go rougue did you. I mean that's what gave our family bond." Amanda looked at Nikita with a sly smile.

"You still call them family?" Amanda asked Nikita was surprised to hear this.

"They're the closest thing I've got, we all love eachother and..." Amanda inturupted Nikita.

"And what Nikita, do you really think you can just get away, get married be a little happy family. It doesn't work like that, not for you, not for me, or anyone else like us." Nikita laughed in a sarcastic way.

"I am...NOTHING like you..." Nikita said she thought it was stupid Amanda said that

"Not like that Nikita, we both worked for the same program. We have people after us and if you keep think like that it will be..." Nikita cut Amanda off.

"Don't, say it..." Nikita said trying not to shed a tear.

"It'll be like another Daniel." Amanda saying this caused Nikita to have a flashback of Daniel telling her he loves her. A tear went down Nikita's face, and then another.

"I'm sorry Nikita, but i'm just telling you to..." Amanda was surprised when Nikita was almost yelling.

"To keep me safe right Amanda? You don't want to see that happen again? Then tell me Amanda what are we doing here? If you don't want to see me hurt then why do you have me and Alex here." Anger was in Nikita voice and Amanda had no way to answer because she did want to see Nikita hurt, but only if it was by her.

"I'll let you know when I figure it out." Amanda left the room. Nikita knew she was going for Alex next. She was determined to get out of this. She just didn't know how. Yet...
