"Hi Syd I'm on my way home now," Michael says.

Sydney smiles"good dinner will be ready," she says.

"I'll see you in a few," he says. He then hung up the phone.

She went back to making dinner he came in a while later and he smiles when he sees her in
the kitchen."Evening," Sydney says.

"Evening," Michael says. He walks over to her and turns her around he kisses her and she
smiles he then leans down and kisses her stomachs."Hello babies have you been good for
your mummy today?"

Sydney smiles"come on I have to make dinner they'll be here any minute," she says."Go get

"Okay," Michael says. He gives her one last kiss and then goes into their bedroom she
watches him go and shakes her head.

Then a while later the doorbell rings and she stops what she's doing to go get it she
finds Jack and Irina there."Hi mom hi dad," she says.

"Hello Sydney," Jack says.

Irina smiles at her daughter and hugs her"evening Sydney," she says. They came in Sydney

"What's happened?"she asks.

They both looked at her strangely"whatever do you mean?"Irina asks.

"You two seem happier than usual," Sydney says.

"Do you think we should tell her?"Jack asks.

"Tell me what?"Sydney asks.

They look at each other"I'm your daughter I need to know," Sydney says.

"Okay we've decided on a date to renew our vows," Irina says. Sydney smiles at her and
Irina smiles back.

"When?"Michael asks from the bedroom doorway.

"As soon as we can get everything arranged," Jack says.

"Good if you two need any help we're here," Sydney says.

Irina nods and hugs her daughter"thankyou," she says.

"My pleasure," Sydney says.

"Hi," Sydney says.

"Aunt Sydney," Abby and Karen say at the same time.

They come running towards her and Sydney kneels down and hugs them both"hey watch it you

"Yes grandma," Abby says. They let go of Sydney and walk away Sydney stands up and goes
back to what she's doing. She smiles at Maria.

"Hi Maria," she says.

"Hi Syd how are you feeling?"she asks.

"I'm all right and you how was your flight?"Sydney asks.

"Could have been better," Maria says.

Sydney nods and smiles at her"mom do you want anything to drink?"Michael asks.

"Yes please white wine if you have it," Maria says.

"Of course or at least I think we do," Michael says."Syd do we have any wine?"

"I think we do," Sydney says.

He goes to check in their other fridge and he sees there is none he comes back out"sorry
mom we don't have any Syd was the one that usually drank it and well you know we haven't
had any in quite a while," Michael says.

His mother nods"okay water then," she says.

Michael nods and goes to get the water from the fridge and Sydney gets a glass for him and
brings it down. He smiles at her and she smiles back. He pours the water in and Syd gives
it to Maria."Here you go?"Sydney says.

"Thankyou," Maria says. She goes to the living room.

A while later you see them all sitting at the dining table eating everybody is quiet Will,
Francie, Eric and Bridget had turned up a while after Juliet."So how was everyone's
day?"Sydney asks.

They all look at her it's more sort of a glare she shakes her head"so Syd when do you go
for your next ultrasound?"Juliet asks.

"Monday we'll be able to find out what the sex of the babies are," Sydney says.

"Good," Juliet says."I bet your looking forward to that."

"We haven't decided if we want to know yet," Michael says. He smiles at Syd and she smiles
back he squeezes her hand under the table.

"Who wants dessert?"Sydney asks.

Abby and Karen look at her and she smiles she gets up and starts collecting the dishes"you
sit right there I'll do it," Francie says.

Sydney sits back down while Francie and Bridget collect the plates they go into the
kitchen and bring out the ice-cream and the hot apple pie."Mm that smells nice," Juliet
says.

Michael looks at Syd and sees she's just sitting there"are you all right?"he asks.

"Yes I'm fine," Sydney says."Why?"

Michael smiles at her"you just seem to be somewhere else today," he says.

"I just have a lot of things on my mind," she says.

He nods and takes her hand and brings it up to his lips"I love you," he says.

"I love you too," Sydney says.

You see Jack and Irina outside later sitting on the swing they just wanted to be by
themselves for a while. Irina has her head on his shoulder."Are you okay?"Jack asks.

"Yes I'm fine," Irina says."Just thinking about Sydney having her babies."

"I know," Jack says. He looks out at the stars she smiles up at him and kisses him on the
cheek."I guess I'm afraid I'll be a bad grandfather."

"You won't be," Irina says.

Jack smiles at her and then you see inside Juliet, Tom, Maria and the girls getting ready
to leave."Well drive safely," Michael says.

"We will," Juliet says.

She kisses her brother on the cheek and then takes the girl's hands and leaves and she's
followed by Tom and then Maria.

Michael goes into the living room but Syd sees her parents outside and decides to go join
them. She walks outside and shuts the door her parents smile at her Jack lifts up his arm
and Sydney sits down beside him and he lays his arm around her."Do you remember when we
use to do this when I was little?"Sydney asks."Come out and watch the stars?"

"Yes we do," Irina says. She strokes her daughters hair Sydney smiles at her mother.

"I remember you two sitting on the swing and I was sitting on the floor and dad was
explaining all the stars to me," Sydney says.

They both smile at her and Michael comes out and sees the three of them there he smiles
Sydney smiles back. They hear the phone ring Michael goes inside and picks it up."Sydney

Sydney stands up and goes inside she takes the phone from him"hello Kendall what's
wrong?"she asks.

"Sydney Claire was killed tonight while on a mission and the person left you a note saying
"watch out little girl"," Kendall says.

Sydney drops the phone on the ground Michael picks' it up"bye Kendall," he says. He puts
it down and he takes Sydney in his arms and she sobs.

"Why Claire why did he have to kill her?"Sydney asks.

"I don't know Syd I don't know," Michael says. He strokes her hair and she snuggles into
him. He kisses her on the forehead.

"It'll be okay I promise," he says again.

would like to tell me?"he asks.

last few months."

Kendall looks at him"so why did he go after your agent?"he asks.

"I don't know," Sydney says."If I did, don't you think that I would have tried to stop it
from happening?"

Kendall looks at her emotionless"why do I bother you don't listen to me anyway," Syd
continues."You know you're an ass I have never ever liked you and I never will you're too
full of yourself you take joy from other people's pain. I've had enough I quit."
