Chapter One-Phone call and a surprise
Jack Bristow read the letter again and frowned. He immediately went into his office and sat down in his chair. He reached for the phone then hesitated. He wasn't sure if he should call her or not. He struggled in his mind for a few minutes then logic got the best of him.
If he didn't tell her, she would be angry and would fell betrayed. But if he told her, she would learn to trust him more. So he chose option two and picked up the phone. He dialled a familiar number and heard it ring. On the third ring, she picked it up.
"Hello?" A groggy voice answered.
"Sydney. It's dad. Sorry to wake you. There is an emergency at the office. I need you down here right away." Then he said a hasty goodbye hung up.
Now for the second phone call. He logged on to his computer and opened up his address book. He opened the V listings and ran the mouse down the list. When he found the name he was looking for he picked up the phone again.
"Hello?" A woman answered. He assumed it was Lauren.
"Put Agent Vaughn on the phone." He didn't like the woman and had no need for formalities.
"This is Vaughn. Whom am I speaking to?"
"It's Jack. We have a situation and you are needed down here immediately." He said then hung up.
Now all he had to do was figure out how he was going to tell his daughter and her ex-boyfriend the news.

Sydney was lying in bed as she carefully hung up the phone. She looked at the clock on her nightstand. Five o'clock am. What was he thinking?
Her dad had sounded nervous. She wondered what was happening. Maybe they found Mom, she thought.
She slowly got out of bed and dragged herself over to her walk-in closet. She got a pair of sweat pants and threw them on. Then she pulled a matching sweatshirt over her head. She walked over to her dresser and pulled on a pair of socks. Then she walked into her kitchen, grabbed her keys, and walked out the front door.
She got in her car and backed out of her driveway slowly, then she sped off to the Joint Task Force.

Upon arriving at the JTF, Sydney parked her car and went into the building. She went through security and was cleared. Then she went to the elevators and went up to the second floor. When she stepped off the elevator she went straight to her fathers office.
Empty. She turned around and headed to Dixon's-no, Director Dixon's- office.
When she went through the door she saw Dixon sitting behind his desk reading a letter. Upon seeing her, he tossed the letter on his desk and motioned for her to sit down.
There were two other people in the office. Her father, whom she expected. And Michael Vaughn, whom was a surprise.
