Title: The X6's surprise
Author: Gamegirl 452
Pairings: Max/Alec I would tell you the rest of them but that would spoil my fun!
Rating: PG-13 (for violence, swearing and sexual content that comes later).
Summary: What if not all of the X6's were not originals? Then what would they be? Where do they come from? And what will it do to the X5's who find out?
Disclaimer: I do not own Dark Angel or any of its characters. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this I would be writing the scripts for the fourth series because by now that's what we would be on because I would have never taken off air. I would have put Max and Alec together a looooooong time ago. Alec would have had a much bigger role in the second series. Alec would now be in my house instead of off somewhere.
But I don't own them James Cameron, Fox and the rest of those lot do. Shame.
A/N: This is only my second fan fiction ever so please read and review and please be gentle.
"Are you ready?" Max asked Alec
She had shed the red jacket that she had been wearing and was now waiting for her things out of the backpack that Alec was carrying,
"Yeah, sure." Alec told her as he handed her the backpack and took off his denim jacket and place it with Max's ready for them to be hidden on top of the roof until Logan, (who had a special VIP passes himself) could come and collect them so there would no traces of them.
Alec turned back to face Max who had put her hair up and had clipped her utility belt around her waist.
Damn she looked hot Alec thought. He took his own utility belt out of the backpack which was now empty apart from the hook shooting gun that they needed for their escape and a small handheld black device that Logan had given them to get round all the anti-transgenic devices, when pressed it emitted a small scale EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) a very small version of the device that caused the Pulse. This would disable the devices for long enough for Max and himself to get past them before they came back online and the back-up devices kicked in.
Great little device, which he might just forget to give back to Logan after this mission is over Alec thought.
He looked over at Max who was ready, he himself was ready and they both nodded.
They both were now dressed all in black, Max in her cat suit and Alec in his tight shirt and fatigue like trousers, they both were wearing black utility belt with various things in little boxes all the way round, he knew for a fact that Max had a pound of C4 in the third box on her right and the detonator, self timing of course, in the box fifth on her left.
Alec had his gun tucked into his trousers and covered by his shirt, he knew Max 'didn't do guns', she had never told him why and Alec didn't press her, she would tell him when she was ready, if ever.
They were both wearing black and silver comms that clipped round the ear and had a mike that came round there face and ended just before there mouths, these were new imports from Iraq, who surprisingly enough made some of the best communications devices in this time.
Alec swung the now nearly empty backpack back onto his back and secured it tightly, he didn't want it coming off mid fight or something stupid like that.
Max put three fingers up and started counting down, luckily she hadn't forget the old Manticore sign language.
When she had gotten down to one they both looked at the gap checking it with their eyes and they both took off running together, they both jumped flawlessly and both landed on their feet on the other buildings roof, they both looked around for any sign of the guards, that were suppose to be on watch.
Alec looked at Max and made the signs to proceed slowly and with caution. Max made a thumbs up sign to tell Alec that she understood, and they walked across the roof together. They knew that even if the did encounter any guards that they were equipped with only low level ammo, as were most of the guards in the building, only the guards on the eight and sixth floor and the ones stood at the entrance were equipped with high level ammo and the ones on the seventh were equipped with taster, Max didn't like that one bit, having to go through two floors of low level ammo, one floor of high and having to stay and escape from a floor where all guards had tasters was not good.
Her and Alec didn't encounter any guards; they had timed it just right. They quickly went down the first two floors with trouble, but it started when they got onto the eight floor. Floors six to eight were the ones with the anti-transgenic devices; Alec stopped and took out the small black device.
"Right we have to activate this device every 5 meters, so that means every second when we are blurring, it only lasts for 30 seconds though" Alec whispered.
Max nodded, and Alec counted down, after Alec had counted he pushed the button on the device and they both started to run, Alec kept pressing the button every second until they had got through all the devices and they were stood outside the door of the room where all the files were kept.
Max was just about to open the door when Alec stopped her, something wasn't right, he pressed the device 5 more times just to be sure, on the fifth press a wide array of red laser beams lit up and deactivated.
He then went and picked the lock, after about ten seconds Alec had managed to open the lock and he opened the door and let Max and himself in.
When they got into the room it was just filled with files and files all labelled 'Manticore: Top Secret' and with other various titles, him and Max started just putting file after file into the backpack, while Alec kept pressing the device so that the alarms didn't set off, something was missing, and Alec couldn't figure out what. Then he saw them, the little red files that Referno kept behind her desk, that files that weren't on any computer system anywhere in the world, Alec pressed the device once more and picked up the files and shoved them into the backpack. They had filled the backpack full of files and they could hardly shut it, Max had gotten the files that Logan had wanted and they were just told to get as many other files as possible.
They had done, that and they exited the room with the backpack full of files safely on Alec's back. They came out of the room only to be met with alarms; Alec knew he had another 15 seconds before he had to push the device again,
"One of the guards saw that you had disabled the lasers in front of the door and has raised the alarm, you've got a pair of guards coming from the left and another on your right and they are all armed with tasters so get out of there" Logan told them through the comms.
Max and Alec ran to the next room, Alec kicked down the door and they went to the window.
"Shit, we didn't open the window" Max told Alec, as he open the window, and he looked out, she was right they had forgotten to open the window.
"Right, you figure out a way to get that window open and I'll fend off these guards." Max told Alec and got herself in a fighting position ready for the guards,
"Here" Alec chucked his spare gun at her, "I know you don't do guns, but against those tasters your going to need it." Alec told her.
Max caught it and nodded, if there was a time to get over she gun shyness it was now she thought. As she got her gun ready to shoot to wound, even thought she was using a gun she wouldn't shoot to kill. One step at a time thought Max.
Just at that moment two guards burst in and Max took them down with a round. The other two came in and Max spin kicked them and sent their tasters flying across the room, Alec saw what she was doing and turned round and shot off a couple of shots to wound one of the guards, Max sent a thankful smile before having to deal with the last guard.
She started off by punching him, the guard punched her back but Max blocked it, she kicked him and punched him in the head before finishing him off with a roundhouse and a spinning kick.
After the last guard was down she joined Alec at the window,
"There will be more on their way what are we going to do?" she asked, just at that moment somebody opened the window in front of them, they couldn't believe their luck, then the person a girl who looked about 16 years old told them it was safe to come across using Manticore sign language.
Alec using the gun shot the hook across the gap, and secured the rope to a filing cabinet and the girl secured the rope to something it the other room.
"Guys, you've got eight more guards coming up so you better get moving" Logan told them over the comms.
Max and Alec looked at each other and Max took what looked like an old wire coat hanger out of her utility belt and climbed out of the window, she put the coat hanger over the wire and put one hand on each side.
Max jumped out of the window and pushed herself off the building, because the other window was a little lower than the one Max jumped out of gravity worked it's magic and Max got to the other window with little incident.
After Max had gotten to the other window and climbed in, she signalled for Alec to come over.
Alec turned round and dropped a couple of smoke bomb to mask his disappearance to the guards who, Alec could hear, were running down the corridor at this very moment.
Without another thought Alec took out his own wire coat hanger and jumped out of the window.
Alec's trip wasn't as smooth as Max's because of the fact that the rope was snapped by one of the guards at the other end and Alec barley made it to the other window before the rope gave way entirely.
'Well, that's one less job I have to do' thought Alec.
"Come on, we've got to get of here" Alec told them as soon as he got through the window.
They took the stairs and ran/blurred all the way. They finally came to the ground floor and Max came up with a problem.
"How are we going to get her past Kim?" she said motioned to the young girl
"Who?" Alec asked
"That young, blond receptionist." Max reminded him
"Oh yeah, leave it to me" he told Max, he turned to the young girl, "all you have to do is stay down."
She nodded as Alec went first up to the reception desk while Max stayed with the young girl.
"Give me your pass." Alec told her before he went.
Max did what he wanted, which was a first. She took it off and handed it to Alec.
He took it and went up to the reception desk where only the young blond was sat there.
"Hello again, I didn't think you'd still be on" Alec told her pouring his charm into that sentence.
"Yeah, I'm on all night. Did you see everything you wanted?" she asked
"Yes we did thank you," he told her as he passes her the passes but before she could take them Alec grabbed her hand and pulled her closer so their faces were nearly touching.
With his other hand his motioned for Max to send the other girl outside.
"Has anyone ever told you you have beautiful eyes?" Alec asked while flashing one of his billion kilowatt smiles at her.
"No, not really." The receptionist told him.
"Well you are, you..." but Alec got cut off by Max grabbing his ass.
"Now Bradley, what have I told you about chatting up the receptionists. I've told you I won't tolerate it. Come on now take me home." Max told him and they started to make their way out
Max turned to face the receptionist, "I'm sorry but he's taken." She told her.
"Oh, that's okay, I get a lot of it." She told them, Max nodded and they both walked out.
The young girl was waiting outside for them.
"What are you?" Max asked
"X6" the girl replied, but apart from that comment she didn't say anything else.
They walked for about a block before they came across Logan's old car. Max got into the front, Alec and the girl got into the back.
Logan turned around to see who else had got in the car.
"Who's she?" he asked Max
"X6, who saved our butts because somebody forgot to open the window" she told Logan all the time glaring at Alec, "That's all we know."
"Do you have a name?" Logan asked the young girl.
The young girl nodded, but didn't say anything.
"Are you going to tell me what it is?" Logan asked
The young girl shook her head, "Your not transgenic." She said simply, "I'll tell 452 and 494 later." She said and with that lapsed back into silence.
Logan groaned in frustration, 'Just what he needed another transgenic who won't talk to him because he's not 'one of them'. Logan started the car and started the journey back to Foggle Towers.
