"What are you gonna do about it." Alex asked making Nikita worried to death, leaving the impression that she wanted Amanda to kill her.
Amanda and Nikita were both silent while Alex stared at Amanda.
"Big bad Helen gonna kill me?" She asked teasing Amanda. Amanda stared at her with hate then quickly grabbed a scalpel off her table, pulled Alex's hair back, and brought it to her neck.
"You don't think I'll do it?" Amanda asked gritting her teeth.
"Amanda!" Nikita yelled worried about Alex. Amanda let go of Alex and walked over to Nikita.
"You want your Friend to live? You better get her under control!" Amanda said angrily then quickly walked back towards Alex, and sliced a 4 inch gash in her left cheek then left. Alex groaned in pain for about 5 seconds, then bit her lip and tried to control her breathing.
"What are you thinking!?" Nikita asked Alex shouting."Are you trying to get yourself killed!?" She asked again, still shouting.
"Oh come on Nikita!" Alex started, smiling. " Just trying to have some fun..." She said still smiling.
"Fun!? This is your idea of fun!? Alex, you're pissing her off! If you don't stop!" Nikita paused for a second. " She will kill you..." She said a little calmer. Alex laughed ignoring her bloody cheek.
"I'm not afraid to die... Besides, if she wanted to kill me, or you, she would have." Alex said her smile slowly fading.
"So what? Push her until she does!? What did she do to you?" Nikita asked. Alex looked up at her nervously. Was it that obvious.
"What do you mean what did she do to me?" Alex asked, trying to hide her fear, she didn't want Nikita to find out like this.
"I mean you don't sound like Alex anymore..." She said sadly. The room fell silent.
Amanda poured herself a glass of wine, then downed it.
"Hard time, dear?" Ari asked politely. Amanda didn't reply. "You thought drugging her would cause Nikita pain... but it backfired." Ari started.
"I would be very careful with what you say, Ari." Amanda said in a shaky voice and closing her eyes.
"Of course." Ari said and took a sip of his tea. Amanda poured herself another glass of wine and started to drink it.
"If the girl is causing you so much pain, why not kill her." Ari asked confused by Amanda's actions.
"I'm not done with her yet." Amanda said and took another drink standing over a table.
Birkhoff and Miranda went to look for Ryan. When they found him he was talking to the double.
"Wow, hey, hang-on." Birkhoff said whispering, holding out his hand so Miranda wouldn't walk any further.
"What?" Miranda whispered confused.
"Ryan's talking to the double, let's just wait here until they finish, then we'll..." Birkhoff stopped talking when he saw "Alex" Pull out a gun and point it at Ryan's head. Birkhoff pulled a hand gun from behind his back and ran over to where they were "Drop it!" Birkhoff yelled. "Drop it now!" He shouted louder. Ryan heard a gun shot. He was sure he was dead, but when he opened his eyes, he saw "Alex" Laying on the floor, dead.
"You...You just killed Alex..." Ryan said stumbling backwards, trying to find something to catch his fall.
"That's not Alex..." Miranda said walking closer to where the boys were.
"What do you mean that's not Alex!? What's going on!?" Ryan shouted.
"Amanda sent a double with Mikey. She shot him and I'm guessing her plan was to kill everyone else." Birkhoff said
"We need to get somebody to clean this." Ryan said calmly.
"I'll call someone up." Birkhoff replied.
"What do we do now." Miranda asked them both.
"There's not much we can do. Investigate the body, try to figure out where Amanda is. That's our best bet." Birkhoff said and looked at Ryan then they both looked at Miranda. Miranda looked at them both and nodded then walked away.
By now, Alex's whole shoulder was covered in blood. Although Nikita was pissed, she was still worried. She was about to say something, but Amanda walked in.
"Feeling better, Alex?" Amanda asked.
"I don't know. Feeling better after you drowned your sorrows in wine?" Alex asked sounding like a smart-ass.
"I did something similar for you didn't I?" Amanda asked evilly. Alex and Nikita's eyes widened. Alex didn't want Nikita to figure out but now she knew that Nikita could connect it all. And she would be pissed at Alex for not telling her.
"You... You drugged her..." Nikita asked shakily. Amanda smiled and looked at Alex.
"She didn't try to stop me." Amanda looked at Alex who was giving Amanda an "I'm gonna kill you" look. Nikita looked from Amanda to Alex.
"You didn't tell me..." She asked disappointed.
"Nikita I didn't..." Alex didn't know how to finish her sentence. It was silent.
"Don't play with fire, Alex." Amanda said walking towards the door. "You'll get burnt." She said then left. The room was once again silent, but the tension was at an all time high.
Miranda went up to medical to check up on Michael. She hadn't gone up to see him yet, having the double around was too much to worry about, so now that she was gone she could see him without worrying. She sat in a chair by the bed he was laying in.
"Hi... I don't usually talk to people who can't hear me." Miranda said then laughed a little. "I just really hope you wake up soon." She started to get tears in her eyes. "I'm just really worried about you and Nik... mom and Alex. I just need someone to tell me..." At this time she was full-out crying "It's gonna be okay." She cried for about 30 seconds, weeping at her father's side, then wiped away her tears. "Just please... wake-up soon..." She said shakily then left medical.
