Review for those of you who are confused:
Anna Weiss is really Sydney and Sark's daughter. Sydney was with Sark during her two year hiatus. It has also been discovered that Melina is the woman in the prophecy, but that Anna is also in the prophecy, and is the only person who can stop Melina from wreaking havoc on the world.
Taryn Weiss is really the daughter of Michael Vaughn and Melina Bristow. Melina posed as Meg Vaughn while Sydney was gone. Michael and "Meg" fell in love and got married, and had Taryn. When it was discovered who Melina really was, she was taken into custody...Michael was killed by Melina before she was taken in, and Sydney and Weiss adopted Taryn, according to Michael's dying wish. Sydney and Eric are married now, and have raised Anna and Taryn, along with two of their sons, Phillip and Michael.
Melina Bristow is the daughter of both Irina and Jack. Irina was pregnant with Melina when she staged the car accident that took her away from Sydney and Jack. The KGB told Irina that Melina died immediately after her birth, when in reality she was very much alive.
Sydney still doesn't remember what happened to her all those years ago. Therefore she doesn't remember loving Sark, or even giving birth to Anna.
And now...the next installment of THE PROPHECY:
The next moments went by in flashes for Taryn Weiss.
In one flash, her sister and Melina were fighting over Anna's gun. Taryn's own gun was on them both, but she was hesitant to shoot. Suddenly a shot rang out.
In the next flash, both Melina and Anna stepped back, looking at one another. Neither of them had been shot. However, someone else had.
In the third flash, Sydney Weiss was screaming out her husband's name, as blood poured from his chest, and he sank to the ground.
In the fourth flash, Jack Bristow's cell phone was being utilized as he called for the paramedic.
In the fifth flash, Melina, with fear in her blue eyes, raced back to her van and climbed in the driver's seat, taking off.
In the sixth flash, Anna and Taryn ran toward a rental car that the Weiss family had acquired. Anna's father, Sark, closely followed. Taryn climbed in the driver's seat, Anna in the passenger seat, and Sark in the seat behind Taryn.

The flashes ended like they had begun. Very rapidly.
It had been a natural reaction for the Weiss sisters when they had seen Melina take off in the black van. As they drove in pursuit of Melina, Anna asked her sister the question that had burning in her mind for several minutes.
"Do you want to tell me how you had a gun little sister?"
"Don't condescend big sister," Taryn answered, her eyes on the van directly in front of the. As the van swerved to the left, Taryn mirrored the motion.
Anna screamed over the sound of screeching tires,
"Taryn, seriously answer me! Right now!"
"Alright, alright. Just promise me you'll shut up so we can all focus on the task at hand. I'm CIA Anna." Anna looked at her in amazement.
"What? But you're in art school in..."
"New York? What? You don't think they have an office in New York City, Anna?"
"But your father died in the field...why would you do this? Mom was so proud of you Taryn."
"Did you think I was just going to let Melina Bristow get away with killing my father? She almost killed you. She's not going to kill anyone, ever again. I'll promise you that," she spat out, as she spun the wheel. She chose this moment to press into the bumper of the van.
Soon, they came up on a warehouse, in which Melina pulled the van into a garage. All three in the pursuing car swore as the garage door closed before they could enter. Taryn pulled the car to a halt, and jumped out, slamming her car door. Anna and Sark did the same, and in mere moments they were breaking into the warehouse.

"Eric!" Sydney still screamed, as the sirens of the ambulance approached.
"Syd..."he whispered. He could feel his lungs collapsing, and his air supply was gradually becoming smaller.
"Eric, don't leave me! Don't!" she screamed again, sobbing, tears falling on her husband's blue button down. Irina and Jack remained in the background, Irina crying into Jack's chest.
"Syd...I knew this was going to happen. I knew it," he whispered to his wife.
"How? What are you talking about Eric. Save your strength. You're going to need it sweetie. Come on, you're going to be fine," she lied, looking down at his chest, which was now covered in mixed blood and tears.
"Honey...we've never lied to each other. Why are you now?" he asked her, and for the first time since he was wounded, he looked into her eyes.
"Eric..."she cried.
"Syd. Get Melina. Take care of the kids."
"I can't do it without you," she sobbed.
"Honey, you can do anything...you've just forgotten. You can do anything," he said, lifting his hand to stroke her face, wiping the tears away.
"Eric...please..."she begged.
"I love you Sydney Weiss," he said, and kissed her mouth fiercely. She returned the kiss, tears still falling.
"I love you honey...Eric..."she screamed, watching as he laid he head back down, his eyes rolling back. She fell back and pulled her knees to her, arms stretching to hug her legs. Irina approached her tentatively, then grasped her daughter in a hug. Jack stepped over to Eric as the paramedic walked to where they were all gathered.
"He's gone," Jack said, and leaned down to close Eric's eyes for the last time.

"Let me lead girls," Alexander Sark said to his daughter and Taryn.
"Dad," Anna smirked, laughing at her father's instinct to lead them into 'danger'.
"Alright alright, love. You lead," he conceded.
"Dad, I would let you, but you know what the prophecy said," Anna spoke.
Taryn chose to moment to chime in, "What prophecy?" she asked.
Anna giggled, as her father tried to explain a brief version of their recent discovery, as they searched the empty warehouse. Anna immediately deemed it strange that they had not met up with any guards. Taryn's voice interrupted her thoughts.
"Wow," she stated, in response to the tale of the prophecy, as just relayed to her by Sark. Taryn and Sark came to a halt when they realized that Anna has stopped as well. They glanced to the source of Anna's mesmerization.
A door.
Door 47.
Author's Note: So I stole the Door 47 thing from J.J. Abrams...it's not mine, blah blah blah. So don't sue me.
