Irina isn't bad in this story and neither is Francie I started writing it after reading the transcript for Phase One (Season Two hasn't yet reached us poor people in England who don't have Sky) so that's where I'm taking it from ignoring the bit with Evil Francie.
Missing Sydney- Chapter 13Sydney walked into the joint task force office and took a minute to catch her breath, after lunch with Dixon she had gone for a jog to relieve some of the tension that had built up inside her, that had been an hour and a half ago. She ran her hand through her hair to smooth it down and wondered how soon it would return to normal, the curls were easily removed and if her calculations were right the blondeness should disappear after another week. On her way to her mothers cell she got ID'd five times and she was glad she had remembered to pick up and ID badge from Devlin before leaving the CIA offices. The guard outside the cell looked at her dubiously but let her through.
Irina looked up as she heard footsteps coming towards the cell, when she saw who it was she caught her breath and blinked a couple of times to make sure she wasn't seeing things,
"Sydney?"
"Hi Mum" Sydney took in Irina's surroundings the cell looked a lot more comfortable than it had when she'd left, there were two pillows, a thick duvet, a desk and chair, and some writing materials.
"What are you doing here?" Irina asked anxiously
"Nice to see you too" Sydney replied
"Not that I'm not happy to see you but didn't you go into witness protection?"
"Yep, and now I'm out of it" Sydney said simply
"But why?"
"Sloane found me, I've come back to work, I'm fed up of running I'm going to see him go down so he can finally stop disrupting my life every time I settle down" Irina was shocked but she admired her daughters determination.
"Are you sure your ready?"
"Positive, normal life wasn't quite all I expected it to be"
"Something was missing, yes?" Irina asked with a knowing smile and Sydney laughed
"I'm really that easy to read?"
"Only to me" Irina replied Sydney decided to leave it at that
"Well I just thought I'd let you know I was back" Sydney said turning to leave
"Sydney" Her mother called and she turned back "I missed you" Irina admitted Sydney nodded and continued on her way out.
TBC…
