A/N: If you don't like this story then tuff, I'm just writing it for my
own pleasure but please R&R! I live off of reviews and I can't wait for
some to come my way!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The streets were dark and the rain was pelting down on the roof of my car as I turned into the alley behind the warehouse. Weiss had called me just after I left the Credit Dauphine building.
"Hanks Gardening?" Weiss's now familiar voice said over the line.
"Wrong number." I said with a frustrated sigh. Couldn't I ever have any time to myself?
I walked into the building, not caring that my shoes where leaving big clumps of mud on the paved floor. Weiss sat on the crate that he always did, not the one that Vaughn would sit on, I moved that when they told me that he was dead. I didn't want my new handler sitting where Vaughn did.
"So what's my counter mission?" I asked, not sitting down. Weiss hated it when I didn't sit down.
"You are to penetrate the building, just as Sloane asked." Weiss said taking out a folder. "Then you are to get the disk with the virus on it, but of course, you don't give it to Dixon as planned. There will be an agent waiting for you outside and you will just tell Dixon that you didn't get the disk okay?"
"Fine" I said and turned to leave.
"Be careful Syd." Weiss said and I stopped in my tracks
"Don't call me Syd," I said in a tone that would make any man quiver with fright. Then I walked away again.
The drive home was slow due to the rain falling. People just didn't seem to know how to drive in the rain in L.A. When I reached my house I was soaking and I did brush off my feet on the rug outside. I didn't want Francie to have to clean up the wet and dirty floor.
"Syd is that you?" Francie called from the kitchen. She appeared two seconds after with an apron on and a turkey on her hand. The turkey was huge and went all the way up to her elbow. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Its not funny Syd." Francie said and then she burst into laughter too. "Stop laughing and help me get it off. I called Will; he's on his way over to help me. I had to press the numbers with my nose!" She sounded indignant which made me laugh more.
"Okay, okay I'll help you" I said overcoming my laughing. We walked into the kitchen and I made her sit down. I dug my fingernails into the turkey and pulled. It came popping off and Francie were relieved. Judging by the pruniness of her hand the turkey had been on for a while.
"Did you get the cranberry sauce, stuffing mix, and the wine?" She asked, walking over to the sink to wash her hand.
"Yeah, its out in the car." I said. "I have to leave tonight on a business trip, I'll be back tomorrow in time for dinner.
"You have to leave on Thanksgiving eve?!" Francie practically screamed.
"Yeah, I know I know, the bank makes me do crazy things." I said and sighed. "I gotta go pack.
"Syd, if I were you I'd quit. I'm sure you could do better at another job."
If you only knew. I thought and walked to my room to pack.
A/N: Did you like it?? Don't worry, I didn't forget about our dear, sweet Vaughn. He's coming but not the way you think he is. bwahaha! =^.^=
