"Okay, ready?" she whispered to her partner.
"Uh huh. I'm ready." he whispered back. "One...two....three." He pressed the detanator, and the bomb went off. Fire lit up the building as she and Nick ran in the other direction.
"Land base! This is Mirage! We've destroyed all evidence!! Do you copy?!" she yelled as she jumped into the car, and drove away.
"Yeah, we got you. Head to the extraction point." said the voice of Kendall. The next day, Mira Belle Bristow-Vaughn walked into the CIA Counter Intelligence Facility.
"Good job, Mira," replied Kendall when she walked in.
"Thanks. Agent Santos was also a big help."
"At least THIS time you actually listened to me."
"Well, I figured that you had to have SOME good ideas." she said sharply. Mira was never too fond of Kendall. She thought that he needed to get out, and get a life outside the CIA. Because, he needed one. Mira Belle Bristow-Vaughn was the spitting image of her parents, Sydney Bristow and Michael Vaughn. Which was why the first part of her name was "mira", taken from "mirror". She had changed her name from "Mirabelle" to "Mira Belle", when she turned 18. At 18 years of age, she was the youngest recruited CIA agent. She's been working there for the last 3 years of her life. She joined the CIA for the same reason HER mother did, to get justice. Except, Mira was in there to get justice for her parents. Arvin Sloane had brutally murdered her mother and father, and he too died in the process. But, Sloane had a son that began to continue HIS father's work of uncovering Rambaldi.
"Spoken just like your mother." Kendall said. Mira's family name alone rang "legend", whenever anyone spoke of her. Mira was the top agent at the CIA, so she was constantly being talked about.
"It'd also help if you'd tell me WHAT that chip was for."
"I can't tell you now. We still have to analyze it. All we know is that it's from Rambaldi."
"You mean to tell me, you sent me on ANOTHER op to retrieve something you know next to nothing about?!"
"Listen to me," he retaliated. "I told you that even WE didn't know what it is. OR, what it DOES. Only that WE need it before anyone else knows about it, or even hears about it."
"And they call this an 'intelligence' agency?" she said smugly and left.
-----------------------------
"I can't understand WHY Kendall has sent me on 3 different ops to retrieve chips that HE knows NOTHING about." she complained to her handler, Riley. She knew she shouldn't be complaining to him, but she couldn't help it. She had no one else to talk to about her job. Even though Mira wasn't a double agent, like her mom, she still needed to meet her handler in secret because of her growing reputation as a top agent. It made her a target for enemy agencies. Especially for Kenneth Sloane, Arvin Sloane's "hidden son". He was the reason WHY Mira was in the CIA.
"Well, look at it this way," he started. "At least Kenneth doesn't have it. "
"Yeah, that's the ONE smart thing Kendall's done. Kept it out of Kenneth's hands."
"What do you think he could possibly want the chips for?"
"I don't know. If HE knows what they do, then he's ahead of US in the game."
-------------------
"I still can't believe you let her into this life." Irina told her ex-husband.
"And what would you have wanted me to do?! Hold her hostage in the house?" he answered angrily.
"Jack, I'm not playing games here. If Arvin Sloane was able to KILL our daughter and son-in-law in one blow, imagine what HIS offspring could do to OUR granddaughter."
"Jack, there's a cycle to everything. The cycle doesn't change. Only the ones who turn it." she gave him a hard look.
"We made a mistake with Sydney. She got into this world because she was caught off guard by Sloane. Mira HAS the choice NOT to get involved in this."
"She was BORN into this, Irina. Once she found out the truth about how her parents died, she KNEW she had to get justice somehow. They were her parents. She can't just let their death go without having someone PAY for what they did." Jack countered.
Irina Derevko always had a way to stir something inside Jack Bristow. How she did it, he never knew. It's been 9 years since she was released from custody. She now lived in a house by the beach, with 24/7 surveillance, and a dog that was aging, fast. Never in his wildest dreams did he ever imagine that he'd be talking to his [ex] wife in such a "normal" setting.
"Think about this," she started. "If Sydney and Vaughn were alive today, do you think they'd WANT Mira in this life?"
"If Sydney and Vaughn were alive today, we wouldn't be having this conversation."
"Jack, you had the CHANCE to keep someone in this family out of this life. Why you didn't take the opportunity, amazes me." Jack decided to hold his tongue at that last comment. He wasn't in the mood to fight with her, because he knew it'd be useless. They were 2 brilliant people, but the slightest disagreement or misunderstanding could send these two off in a spar. Physical AND verbal. Jack wouldn't be able to hold back, since, there was no clear glass separating them anymore. The argument was old and recycled. First it was Sydney, and now it was Mira.
"Listen, I came here for a reason. And it was NOT to to fight with you."
"Okay, I'm all ears." she replied, as they both sat down on her couch.
"Tell me if you've ever seen these before." He handed her a picture of the chips that Mira had retrieved on her last 3 ops. Irina's eyes lit up.
"Kenneth must be looking for some quality time with his dad." she smirked.
"What are you talking about?"
"Rambaldi built a time machine so he could see if his inventions would ever be used in the future. These chips are part of it."
"Well, what do they do, exactly?"
"Each chip controls a certain time frame. One for the past, present and future. If at any point, the traveler interferes with a time frame, the other 2 will also be effected."
"In what way?"
"Let's just say that if Kenneth gets to go back in time and rescues his father," she started. "We'd be dealing with father and son, and.....Sydney and Vaughn could EVEN be alive today."
"So, everything that's happened will be altered."
"Exactly. But, what happened years ago, was DESTINED to happen. You can't mess with destiny."
"Even IF Kenneth DOES go back in time and rescues his father, no matter what, Sydney, Vaughn, and Arvin Sloane are going die. THAT's the one thing that's inevitable. Their deaths."
