The high pitch ringing of the phone woke Vaughn from his restless sleep. Automatically, his hand shot out like lighting and he answered it.
"Hello?" He asked, his soul gripped with cruel anticipation.
"Hey man. It's Weiss here..."
"Have you got any news?" Vaughn cut him off.
"Yeah, but I can't discuss it over the phone. Can you meet me in the office in about 20 minutes?"
"I'll be there in 10."
And without waiting for and answer, Vaughn hung up, got out of bed and rushed to get dressed.

10 minutes later, Vaughn was marching down the corridors of the CIA building. His thoughts were plagued by the question as to whether this was the news he was hoping for or dreading. He prayed it was news he was hoping for, he'd had so much bad luck that it was about time he had some good. He arrived at Weiss' door and entered, not bothering to knock. Weiss was flicking through some papers, but looked up when his door opened, then relaxed when he saw it was Vaughn.
Weiss wedding ring caught the light slightly. Vaughn couldn't believe how quickly Weiss had gotten married. A few months after the take down of SD-6, He met a woman called Kara Wright. They dated for a while, then Kara accidentally fell pregnant. Weiss was shocked at first, but he was overjoyed when his son, Craig, was born. Weiss realised that he couldn't live without either of them, so they got married.
Kara had become as close to Sydney as Francie had once been. The truth about Francie still stung Syd like an open wound, which would probably never fully heal. Craig and Kate had grown up together. They were best friends, joined at the hip most of the time. Craig was crushed when Kate ran away. Then he went and got himself into trouble by breaking Justin's nose, when he found out the Kate was pregnant. Weiss knew that Vaughn envied his close nit family. He caught Vaughn staring at the photo of the family on his desk. He turned it away slightly, as if he was trying to protect him.
"Hey man. How you been?" Weiss asked.
"Alright," Vaughn lied.
Weiss didn't seem reassured by the answer, but didn't pursue it. Instead he got out of his chair and walked over to Vaughn. He picked up two mugs of coffee and handed one to him.
"I thought that you could do with this and if you're hungry..."
"Eric, what's the news?" Vaughn interrupted.
Weiss sighed and rubbed his forehead slightly.
"We were contacted by MI6 yesterday..."
"And they know where to find Sydney and Kate?" Vaughn cut across.
"Sort of," Weiss sighed. "They have some Intel that might lead us to Derevko, Sydney and Kate."
Vaughn studied Weiss' face for a second. He didn't like the look spread across it.
"But they're not handing it over. There's a catch isn't there?"
"Yeah. Have you ever heard about MI6's 'Ghost' division?" Weiss asked as he sat down on the edge of his desk.
"Yes. They're a division that MI6 has never confirmed or denied. They're rumoured to be top-level agents, assassins mainly, who do highly classified and dangerous operations. No one knows who the 'Ghost' agents are. Their identities are top secret. Some of the agents have even faked their own deaths, so that their true identity is hidden. If any of the agents are caught, MI5 denies all knowledge of them and delete all records of their existence. The 'Ghost' agents are rumoured to be some of the best in the world."
Vaughn had started to pace up and down whilst he was talking. Weiss was worried for his friend. He was on the brink of loosing it completely. Weiss could only hoped that he could help him hold on.
"Ten out of ten. We have reason to believe that they're sending a 'Ghost' here."
Vaughn stopped suddenly and snapped his head towards Weiss.
"Why?"
"In exchange for their Intel, their agent is coming with us. MI6 is still pissed that we let Derevko get away, so they're sending an agent to 'eliminate' the problem."
"They're having Derevko assassinated?" Vaughn asked surprised.
Weiss nodded in answer.
"Suppose I can't blame them. So when is this agent arriving?"
Weiss ran a hand awkwardly through his hair and sighed. He handed Vaughn a file, which he quickly flicked through.
"All we know is that their agent is arriving here on flight 647 from Boston this afternoon. And that their code name is 'Arch Angel'."
"So how will we know which passenger is our man?"
"Their agent will set off a metal detector whilst passing through. They will complain about the same thing happening in Zurich. That's our cue to collect them. We will ask them 'how's the weather in London?'. If they reply 'Not bad for the time of year. It was minus 1 last week', then that's out 'Ghost'." Weiss explained.
Vaughn sat down in a chair and reread the file. Maybe this was the breakthrough he was looking for. Maybe this MI6 'Ghost' would lead him to Sydney and Kate. His hope was coming back, he just prayed that he wouldn't be let down again.
"Well then," Vaughn announced after a couple of minutes, breaking the silence, "We better be heading over to the airport. We've got a 'Ghost' to catch."
