Author's note: Ok. First thing, I have NOT seen season 3, so there is some stuff that I know about others that I don't. Sorry about Vaughn's POV, I know that I kept switching from third to first person, thanks for noticing! Sorry, I'll try to check through properly next time! Sorry it took me so long to update! Homework and exams!

Before she had chance to stop him, Vaughn jumped in front of Sydney, grabbing her gun and pointing it at her temple. Now this was not what she had expected.
~#~#~#~#~
Sydney stopped in her tracts and frowned for a second. This was the last thing she had expected to happen. She wasn't even thinking about Vaughn right now. How could she have forgotten that he was there? It was a moment of weakness on her part; she had been so caught up in her situation that she hadn't thought of the risk that the people around her posed.
Vaughn paused and looked into Sydney's eyes. He never expected that this would happen, just like he never expected Sydney to comeback from the dead, and yet she did. He was just beginning to realise, yet again, that when Sydney was involved, anything and everything was possible. As he thought about this, Vaughn realised that at this very moment, he knew nothing about the situation. He didn't even know who she was trying to protect. Who was so important that she was working with her Mother and Sark?! The people, who only two short years ago, she claimed to, despise more than anything and anyone.
"Who are you trying to protect Sydney?" Vaughn asked gingerly, as he straightened his arm and aimed his gun closer to her head.
Sydney knew that this was coming. She knew that someone would ask this question as soon they had figured out that she protecting someone. After all she was in a room filled with intelligence agents.
"That's just something that I can't tell you right now. Her life is more important to me than yours. The longer you keep me here Vaughn, the more agitated I will get. Trust me when I say that you don't want to upset me right now, or any of my 'associates'." Sydney stated calmly, as she looked at Vaughn with seriousness in her eyes that meant that she was not going to let him control her.
She was in charge, and even though he had a gun pointed at her head, everyone in the room knew that he wouldn't pull the trigger, his feelings for her ran too deeply. She however, had changed a lot during those two years. More than she let show, nobody really knew what she was capable of... not anymore.
Vaughn cocked his gun. "I can help you Syd, let me help you. We can help you. You trusted the CIA before, what's changed?" Vaughn pleaded with Sydney.
He knew that he couldn't kill her. He would never hurt Sydney, even after this, but he had to make it look like he could. He wanted to help. He knew that he could, if she would only give him the chance.
"A lot has changed. More than you'll ever know. If it's even possible, my life has become even more complicated than before. I have enough help now. You can't help me Vaughn... not anymore. Just... go back to your wife. She needs you more than I do." Sydney said rather tirelessly. She was getting annoyed with Vaughn's behave. He needed to accept the fact that he wasn't part of life anymore. They had both moved on. She had new responsibilities, and new loves, as did he. She had family, granted it was dysfunctional, but it was hers, not his, but hers.
Briefly, everyone's eyes flickered from Vaughn to Sydney, to Lauren and then back to Vaughn. Nobody knew how to react, especially Lauren. She sat there keeping completely silent, not daring to speak; for fear that she would betray her true feeling and endanger herself and her husband.
Sydney let out a sigh before quickly executing the plan the she had prepared only seconds earlier, as he was distracted. She took her opportunity to tackle Vaughn. Suddenly her head swing forward, hitting Vaughn in the process, causing him to stagger backwards, giving Sydney enough room to fling her leg into the air, connecting it with his chin. As Vaughn was about to respond, Sydney's leg flew towards his hand, knocking the gun into the air, as she spun and kicked him squarely in the chest, knocking him into the floor. Sydney grabbed the gun and aimed it at Vaughn.
"You never listen to me Vaughn!" Sydney yelled. "I told you! Don't try to get involved!" Sydney said as she looked over to Danny, who was looking slightly amused by the situation in front of him.
"I told you, Syd. This was a bad idea. We really need to get going before it's too late." Danny replied as he looked down at his watch. Before Sydney replied,
"Ok, let's go. You were right, they couldn't help me. If I am going to protect her, I'll have to do it by myself."
A brief moment of concern crossed Danny's mind before he replied,
"Are you sure we can leave them here, I mean, they know too much now. They could easily intercept the Convent's team and take her instead. We can't put her in anymore danger. We need to take action, and we need to do it now. I have the original extraction plan in place. Are you willing to do it?" Danny asked extremely cautiously, not knowing how she would react to the use of the plan, as she was set against it when Sark had first put it in place.
"She's my daughter. I'll do whatever's necessary to protect her." Sydney replied as suddenly became full of emotion. While still staring into Vaughn's eyes, she let a small tear run slowly down her face and hesitated before she continued,
"Goodbye Vaughn...I'm sorry...for everything." Sydney silently breathed, as she continued to stare into his deep green eyes.
Suddenly a gun shoot echoed throughout the JTF and a single body fell to the ground with a horrific thud.
