Summary~ Future Fic; When Sydney disappears, Vaughn is determined to find her, for his sake and their son's
A/N: sorry for the long wait between updates, but last week was my brother's graduation, then I was in Pittsburg for my cousin's wedding over the weekend, and right when we got back I had to start finals, so my fics haven't really been my top priority. Now I'm back, so please review chapter six..i would greatly appreciate suggestions, b/c I'm not really sure where this is going

Vaughn ran into the ops center, William trailing behind him as fast as his short legs could carry him
"Sark's in Budapest" Jack said, greeting them at the door "A team is already on their way there"
"Do we have reason to believe that Sydney is with him" Vaughn asked, suddenly grim and businesslike
"There were two seats booked under his alias on the flight there, it could be wrong, but it's enough to go on" Jack replied
Vaughn looked from his son to Jack and then back to William again. He crouched down and looked straight into William's intense green eyes "I've got to go away for a few days to try to find your mom" he said quietly then turned to Jack "will you take care of him?"
"I'm afraid you can't do that" Jack said "The team is already gone" he paused "and director Kendall believes that you are too personally involved in this case to be on this mission"
"WHAT?" Vaughn asked, angry now "If anything, my personal involvement in the case should help us find her, not hurt the mission"
"Michael" Jack said quietly "if anyone understands how badly you want to find Sydney, it's me. If it were me making the decision, I would have let you go, however it is not. I am sure the agents we sent will do their best to bring her back. Go home. Rest. Take care of your son. They will find her"
Vaughn stood there, looking helpless. Then he took William's hand in his "come on buddy" he said, leading him out of the ops center "Are they gonna find mommy?" William asked, big tears forming in his eyes and his lower lip quivering
"I hope so. I really, really hope so" Vaughn said, taking his son in his arms and wiping away the tears sliding down William's face, hoping that his son wouldn't notice the ones running down his

Vaughn sat on the couch in the living room while William had fallen asleep with his head on Donovan. The old dog snorted, and Vaughn swears he saw him roll his eyes.
*I have got to do something* he thought *I can't just sit here. There has to be somebody who can help me find her. I can't wait for the CIA*
Then Vaughn had crazy idea. *No* he told himself. But before he knew it he was waking up William and taking him over the neighbor's house. "Hey Becky" he said, as their friendly neighbor answered the door "can you watch Will for a little while? I've got to go do something real quick"
"Sure" the kind woman replied "Nick, Jade, come downstairs, William is here" she yelled up to her 2 kids who were about Will's age
Vaughn smiled "thanks, I'll be back soon" he said, knowing that he probably wouldn't be
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Three hours later, Vaughn was still pacing outside the building *You've gotta go in* he told himself * this is your only hope in finding Sydney* He walked slowly through the door, avoiding anyone he might know
*I really should have checked with Jack before I did this* the thought *Oh well, too late now* he walked down the darkened hallway, and saw a light *God, does she ever sleep?* he wondered, seeing her crouched over her desk. Vaughn took a deep breath and stepped out of the shadows "Where the hell is Sydney?" he asked, trying to sound rational, even though he knew he didn't
Irina looked startled when she saw who it was "Michael.. It's quite a surprise to see you here"
"I asked you a question" he growled
"What makes you think I know where she is?" Irina asked, she smiled at him "your son looks just like you"
Vaughn stared, then got an angry look on his face "If you ever come near my son...i SWEAR I will kill you"
"Michael, I was not involved in Sydney's disappearance, nor do I plan on doing anything to your son. You know he's my grandson too, I would never do anything to my family"
"You shot your daughter. Why should I believe that you won't do the same to her son?" Vaughn asked angrily
Irina looked up with tears in her eyes "I wish I was Laura Bristow again" she said quietly "I wish I could hold my daughter in my arms and kiss away her tears. But I can't. Because my daughter disappeared, probably because of some stupid mistake or severed connection I had in the past. I wish that my husband would have come to see me more than once in five years. I wish he had told me that we have a grandson."
"He did" Vaughn said, emotionless. He didn't want to give in to Irina, no matter how innocent she seemed
"I wish I could be a normal grandmother, and bake cookies, and not have to tell my grandson that I killed his grandfather" Irina continued "Please Michael. Please. Just let me meet him, once. Let me see him. He is the only piece of Sydney I have left"
Vaughn looked up. He hadn't thought of it that way. He had kept telling himself that they would find her, but now he wasn't so sure. "Tell me what you know about Sydney's whereabouts, and then I will consider allowing you to meet my son"
"I swear to you, I know nothing. If I did I would tell you in a second. I haven't been in contact with Sark or Sloane for the last year and a half"
"Where were they when you last contacted them?" Vaughn asked, hoping to get something out of her
"Sark was traveling. Sloane was living in Tuscany. He was working on discovering the second part of Rambali's legacy"
"Is he still living there?"
"I don't know, but it had been his permanent residence for the last three years"
Well. That was something. Vaughn thought for a minute. *Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I let William meet her. After all, she is family* Then he started thinking straight *are you crazy? She killed your father, why the hell would you put you son in that kind of danger?* he asked himself "Thank you. I will speak with William and let him decide if he wants to meet you" Vaughn said, leaving before Irina could respond. He knew very well that he wasn't even going to offer the option of meeting her to William, but that was okay, because she didn't know that. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
A/N: Sorry that was kind of short. I think I forgot how to write fanfic during my hiatus. Anyway, I want at least 5 reviews before the next chapter is posted, b/c I'm not sure anyone is reading this anymore, and if they're not, it is kind of pointless to continue. Next chapter-William meets Irina (or does he...)
REVIEW!!!!!!!
