An Alias Story
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: SUE ME NOT. ME IN COLLEGE. HAVE NO MONEY.
ALIAS TIMELINE: Post Almost Thirty Years
POV: Sydney
***********************
I hate it when my world is so out of control . . . not that I'm ever really in control of it . . .
SD-6 . . . CIA . . . School . . . Friends . . . .
And I never know what's going on with any of it . . . or where I stand . . . who will betray me next . . .
It's like being blind in a room . . . you don't question that you'll eventually hit a wall . . . it's just a matter of which wall and when. Actually being in a room like that would be better than this . . . it would hurt a lot less . . .
Things change but they don't . . . there's always some new way to get hurt . . . some new obstacle thrown in my path. A haunting of the past . . . a slap in the face from what comes . . .
And you know when it hits? It hits right when you think you're safe . . . right when things settle back down . . . right when everything is starting to feel right.
I have to hide emotions about one aspect from the other parts of my life. Only able to put them all in one place . . . to be the real Sydney Bristow in one place.
And that sanctuary died with Vaughn . . . and now I'm blind again.
