Chapter 4 The Interruption
"What the hell-" Will began angrily, but was cut off by Sydney as she stood up.
"Oh, Will!" she tried to change the subject. "You look awful! I am so sorry! Please, tell me what happened,"
"Not until you tell me what's going on here," Will argued.
"Um, well---" she trailed off and Vaughn stood up. "This is Michael---" Will cut her off.
"Yeah, I know. We've met," he said, enraged. Will gave Vaughn a look of utter disgust.
Sydney couldn't believe the way Will was acting. "Will, we have to talk," she said sternly. "I will only be a minute," she said, smiling to Vaughn. He nodded, and Sydney pulled Will to the back of the plane, roughly. She pulled him around and shoved him into a chair.
"What in the hell is wrong with you?!" she demanded, impatiently. She stared down at him, her eyes on fire with rage.
"I just---" Will couldn't even speak he was so scared. One thing was for sure; now that he knew what she was capable of, he definitely didn't want to piss her off.
"What? You just wanted to stick your dumb ass self in where it didn't belong, that's what. You just had to come over there, didn't you? You didn't think for one second that maybe---. You know what?! You never think! Will, you don't think about anyone but yourself, and I'm sick of it. Did you know that I almost lost that man tonight?!" Sydney's eyes were filling with tears.
Will just looked at her in utter shock. He felt really bad about the way he reacted. He acted like a child, and there was no other way to put it.
"You have no idea what I have gone through with this man. I thought I lost him tonight. Because of me, he was trapped. And I watched! I watched this man die and I could do nothing about it. He came tonight to help me get you back. We traded a very important document for you without asking. This could cost me my job. And because of it, I almost lost that unbelievable man right in front of me," tears were streaming down her face. She sat down on the arm rest on the other side of the isle from Will. She looked up at him and said,
"You have no idea what it's like being in love with some one that you can't have," Will looked down at his hands in his lap.
"Will, a relationship between Vaughn and I could get us killed. But I don't care anymore. I love him. I love him more than you know. More than I know. It's different with him. Different than it was with Danny," she grew quiet, but it didn't bother them. Finally, Will broke the silence in an attempt to apologize.
"Sydney, I didn't mean to act like that. I just--- I don't know. I was stupid and I apologize," he paused, choosing his words carefully. "I didn't know how much he meant to you. When I saw him carry you on the plane, he just--- even with you unconscious, you two looked like you were supposed to be together. You just--- you just looked so right with him. I don't know, I guess I was jealous. I know I was jealous. He will be able to provide you with more than I ever would have been able to," Will finished and looked down. He had just poured his heart out to her and he wasn't sure how she would take it. She would 1) Be completely mortified, slap him in the face, and run into the arms of prince charming 2) Forgive him for what he did and everything would go back to it's somewhat normality or 3) (Which he wanted most) She would forget about the knight in shining armor and come to be with him, her true love, and everybody would be happy (except the knight, of course). But he already knew that his chances with Sydney had been pretty much wiped out since the last time he tried to hit on her. But he could dream, right?
Sydney looked up at Will in awe of what he had just said. "Thank you," was all she could get out. Just then, Jack burst onto the plane.
Sydney stood up immediately and went over to her father. They were quickly joined by Vaughn and Will.
"Emily is dead," he said, in a hushed tone.
"What happened?!" Sydney asked in shock.
"She was poisoned," Jack was still trying to figure all of this out himself.
"Where's Sloane?" Vaughn asked, concerned.
"He's gone. His finger prints are on everything. The wine glass where the poison was found, the bottle of pills in the kitchen---" he trailed off in thought.
"That doesn't prove anything," Sydney shook her head.
"I brought my laptop and I logged into the SD-6 security logs and got into the audio files. I found Sloane's office and downloaded all of the audio recorded in his office from the past week," he paused as if it was painful to continue.
"And did you find anything?" Sydney pushed.
"Yeah, I did," Jack was uncomfortable, which was rare.
"We're not getting anywhere here, dad. What did you find?" she was going easier on him than before. Talking about this bothered him, and she didn't know why.
"The leader of the Alliance came to meet with him a few days ago. He offered Sloane a position as a full partner, but there was a catch. Emily would have to be dealt with. Before she went into remission, the Alliance thought they had her taken care of. There would be no need for drastic measures to be taken. But then, as we all know, she went into remission and she was once again a threat. Basically, the deal was, kill Emily and get the job,"
"Oh my God," Sydney sighed.
"We don't know how long Sloane will be gone, but until he turns up, I will take over his position," Jack said with finality in his voice. "This may be what we need to get rid of SD-6."
A/N Hey everybody, sorry that this chapter is so short. I was planning on writing more, but the day got away from me, so this is what I've got. Thank you thank you thank you again for all the great reviews! Katie, you are a dork. If you were gonna review, give me something I can work with!! LOL. I can always count on you for criticism on my work, so don't let me down this time!! You know I'm new this!! Anyway, the reviews really help me out a lot. If you have ideas, just send me an e-mail or something, and I'll get back to you. So, I'll keep the chapters coming, don't worry. FF.net is what's keeping me sane (well, sort of) this summer. What I would do without it, I don't know. Thanks again and again~Kate
