Chapter 12: Stuck on the Edge
Vaughn woke up because someone was shaking his arm; he opened his eyes to see that it was Lauren.
"What do you want"?
"Come on Michael you have to leave"
"What happened did I tell him who is coming for the passenger?" asked Vaughn
"Yes you told him everything, you have to leave now go before he comes back" Lauren gave him his shirt and he ran out of the building, when he was outside he looked up and down the ally for any cars, a truck was just about to go past him when Vaughn stopped it and climbed in the passenger seat.
"Thanks for stopping"
"No problem. Are you alright?" asked the burly river
"Yeah I'm fine can I use your phone"
"Sure" the driver passed Vaughn a silver cell phone and watched Vaughn as he punched in his number.
"Operator""Hi this is agent Vaughn code 1102, I need to speak to director Dixon"
"O.K just a minute agent Vaughn"
"Vaughn where are you are you alright?" said the voice over the phone
"I have some news for you Dixon it's about the passenger"
"Yeah I need to ask you about him. Is anyone coming to pick him up?"
Vaughn was surprised and puzzled at Dixon's question why would he ask who is going to pick up the passenger if he wanted to keep him at HQ for a month no matter what.
"Vaughn where is the passenger?" repeated Sark as he spoke into the voice altering
phone. The driver got the hint that Vaughn was not falling for the scam.
Vaughn knew he had to get out of the vehicle so he started to struggle with the driver for control of the steering wheel. In the end Vaughn overpowered the driver and jumped out of the truck just before it hit the wall and burst into flames.
Vaughn was relieved that he was still alive and started to walk down the street.
Just then out of nowhere Sark and Lauren pulled up in a black Van, the both got out and advanced towards Vaughn with their guns raised.
"Put your hands on your head and get down" Sark ordered
When Vaughn did as he was told Lauren came up and gave him a spin kick in the face, he was knocked out.
Meanwhile back in Josh's Cell
"They killed Danny and that's how I ended up here, working for the good guys" said Sydney as she finished up her story about how she started working with the CIA. Over the last couple of hours she told him everything about Danny, Vaughn, how she was Julia Thorne just everything.
"I'm so sorry that I couldn't be there for you"
"It's not your fault, it's all because of Rambaldi" she said with a chuckle
"Rambaldi! I heard people talk about him at Interpol. He created some sort of prophecy."
"Do you know anything else about him?"
"That's pretty much it they would always keep quiet about him whenever I walked by, and their meetings would always be in a soundproof room in the ops center basement just so that I wouldn't find out."
At that moment Erik entered the cell
"Sydney we have an emergency, we need to go."
"Alright I'll be out in a sec." She replied
Erik walked out and waited by the door.
Sydney turned to Josh
"I'm really sorry but I have to go"
"That's alright we can talk later"
She smiled gave him a hug and went outside to meet Erik.
"What happened?" She asked as they started walking away from the Cell"
"I don't know how to tell you this but…Vaughn's missing."
"What? How? Where was he last? Is he on a mission?"
"Sydney calm down I had Marshall try to locate him" Said Erik
"How can we locate him?"
"Vaughn didn't remove his tracking device after the Vault mission."
Sydney was a bit relieved to hear that, but she was still hoping that he was okay.
When they got to the tech ops center Marshall was still on the computer trying to find Vaughn's signal.
"Marshall what have you found" asked Erik
"It's not good so far…Wait I got a signal it's coming from the corner of Main and Sutherland.
Sydney and Erik bolted out of the Tech-Ops center just as Marshall turned around.
"With this signal we can now…"
Seeing that they were gone Marshall smiled and said "You're Welcome" to no one in particular.
Sydney and Erik were already heading out with a team out agents.Meanwhile
"Tell me who is coming for the passenger" Said Sark
"No" Replied Vaughn
Vaughn was strapped to a metal table with Lauren and Sark standing on either side of him.
"What should we do with him?" asked Lauren
"He's not going to talk, get rid of him. We have other ways of finding information."
Lauren walked to the drip that looked like an IV tube and was attached to Vaughn's arm. She increased the amount of drip going into his system, which she knew would kill him.
"Goodnight Honey" She said and left
Vaughn started to get drowsy and after a few minutes the darkness closed in on him and he dropped off.
Four Hours Later
Sydney, Erik and the rest of the team made their way through the maze of the building Vaughn was in.
Erik looked down the hallway and saw an open door when they got there they saw Vaughn in the middle of the room on the metal table unconscious.
