Okay that's enough for today, I hope you enjoy this chapter, review if you want more!

Chapter 16

The next morning arrived sooner then both Sydney or Michael had hoped. Today was the day Sydney had been dreading for quite awhile now. She stood in front of her mirror, looking at her reflection, as if that would somehow bring her back the confidence she had gained in herself and her ability to perform her missions with ease, or at least come out of her missions alive, whether they went as planned or not. Her unease was written all over her face, but when Vaughn walked into the room she quickly covered that expression up and offered him a small smile. She shouldn't have bothered, because Vaughn's eyes immediately filled with concern and his forehead wrinkles came into view.

"You okay?" Vaughn asked quietly as he approached her, resting his hands on either side of her hips. Sydney's own hands held onto his forearms, her thumb rubbing gently over his smooth skin.

"Yeh, I'm fine. I can handle this. It's not like it's the first time I've done a mission before, about a third of my life was centered around them. That's not even what I'm worried about anymore. I know I can handle myself out there, and besides, I have you to protect me," she added as she removed her hands from their previous position and moved them instead around his neck, stepping closer to him, so naturally his arms wrapped themselves tightly around her waist.

"Eliza?" Vaughn asked already knowing the answer.

"Eliza." Sydney confirmed looking at the ground quickly before staring back into his enticing emerald green eyes. "God, every time I see her, or even think about her I feel like slamming my foot or fist or something into her face to wipe that smug look she always has permanently. Don't let me do that, as much as I would love to I know that I shouldn't, and I really don't need to get in trouble with the CIA or anyone else for that matter."

"I really have to stop you from hitting her? Can't I just pretend to be in such shock that I couldn't move from my position?" Vaughn asked. Sydney actually couldn't tell if he was being serious or joking around.

She narrowed her eyes at him, "My spy skills are letting me down already and I haven't even started the mission yet. Are you being serious or not?"

Vaughn grinned at her, "I'm not really sure," he said thoughtfully, plastering a confused look on his face before smirking when Sydney gently hit him on the arm. He laughed lightly.

"Come on, we have to go," he told her before placing a small kiss on her lips. Sydney followed him as he grabbed their bags and headed out the door. It would be a long trip from America to Australia, and as a little bribery trick the CIA had paid Sydney quite a bit extra so that she would actually do the mission. So with the help of this extra money Vaughn and Sydney planned to stay in Australia for a week as a sort of holiday, besides the one night of the op of course. They would stay in Adelaide for two days, Melbourne for another two, and check out Perth in a one day trip and then head up to Queensland for the remainder of the week to check out Dreamworld and the other tourist attractions there.

Once they reached the CIA headquarters they received the details surrounding the mission and were given new passports and identification with their alias's.

Vaughn looked down at his new passport. His new name was Darien Cole and he was a year or two younger then his actual age, and his marital status read 'married'. He did not have to wear any hair dye except for getting a few blonde highlights at the ends, he had to look retro to get into the club. His green eyes could also stay the same as they were, green. However he had to wear a fake earring in his left ear. He was pleased that he didn't have to change much, but then again it was usually the girl on the mission who had to wear the wigs and all of that, in this case that girl was Sydney, and Eliza.

Eliza's long, blonde hair had to become black with bright red tips, but it turned out that neither of the three had to change their eye colour so Eliza's stayed as they grey/blue that they were. Her alias was Cady Kellsar and she was a year older then Eliza.

Sydney's hair had to be died a dark purple, with a few magenta coloured streaks. The purple and pinkish colour went well together and screamed out 'happenin babe', which was basically what they were going for. They all had to come on and off of the plane with the same appearance as on the plane so Vaughn decided to just die his hair, It wasn't like he had to have much done. Sydney and Eliza however both decided to wear wigs. They were also allowed to call each other by their first names except for the night at the club, and of course in front of any one who worked for the airline they were travelling with, because the rest of their holiday had nothing to do with the CIA. Her alias was Tandy Cole, and Sydney's age had stayed the same. Her marital status also read 'married.' She smiled when she saw this and looked over at Vaughn. He felt her staring and looked across to make eye contact and smiled back.

"Please tell me your last name is Cole," he basically begged Sydney.

"Sorry, it's Bristow." Sydney stated, keeping her face deadly serious as she turned back to memorise the details about her alias, even if it wasn't necessary.

"Funny girl," Vaughn replied sarcastically.

"Yeh I thought so," Sydney replied with a grin. Vaughn chuckled before reaching out and taking Sydney's paper out of her grasp to make sure it was her he was married to on this mission. He checked and gave a sigh of release as he saw that it was indeed Sydney he was married to on this mission. Or he should say it was Tandy who Darien is married to. Whatever. He gave the paper back and caught Sydney glaring at him for taking the paper. He gave her his puppy dog face until she smiled at his cuteness, which as usual she did. He then gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and went back to memorising the details on his passport.

They were interrupted by Weiss who was going to be talking to Sydney, Vaughn and Eliza through a com-link and praying that nothing goes wrong on the night of the mission.

"Eric, how've ya been? I haven't seen you for awhile," Sydney said as she gave Weiss a hug, which he returned,

"I've been okay, but putting up with this one at the office just wears me out," he stated, nodding over to Vaughn.

"Awww come on, he's not that bad," Sydney replied.

"Easy for you to say. You're all he ever talks about. Sydney this, Sydney that."

"I do not," Vaughn said, mock glaring at his best friend.

"So you don't talk about me?" Sydney asked him with a pout, crossing her arms over her chest.

"I didn't say that," Vaughn stated, narrowing his eyes and pointing a finger at her. "See what happens when you talk to people?" Vaughn asked Weiss, "We've been through this."

"Yeh, yeh. Don't talk unless someone talks to me first. And even then I should say the least amount as possible." Weiss replied, looking ashamed.

"You can't be serious," Sydney said, looking back and forth at the two.

Vaughn and Weiss both started laughing. "Nah," Weiss told her in between the laughing and light slaps on the back that they were now giving each other. "But we totally had you believing us," he added.

"Good job with the 'don't talk unless someone talks to you' thing. You looked really ashamed," Vaughn said to Weiss.

"Thanks man. You gave me a great opportunity to throw something in." Weiss said gratefully. "We did such a good job," he added, looking very triumphant.

"We should be congratulated and praised," Vaughn added, looking extremely proud.

Sydney smiled slightly, shaking her head. "I'm going to the bathroom," she stated, a bit confused. Vaughn and Weiss both grinned at the perplexed expression on her face before they relayed the conversation to each other, laughing and congratulating each other once more.

Okay, that was a little weird, Sydney thought to herself as she walked in the direction of the bathroom, her memory serving her well. I guess I should have expected it from the two of them though. She thought with a slight shake of her head and a smile.

She walked through the door, hitting someone with it in the process. A girl had been walking out while she was walking in, and since the door must be pushed from the outside, it collided with the other girl who had been reaching for the door handle.

"I'm so sorry-" Sydney began to say until she realised whom it was she had hit. "Eliza, fancy seeing you here," she drawled out sarcastically.

"Yeh I guess you're just lucky, running into me all the time," Eliza said back to her.

"See, luck isn't exactly the word I would use. I think our little unplanned meetings would be considered as more of a bitch then lucky."

"I feel the same way. You talk with that mouth to Michael as well? 'Cause that could explain why he's still with you. He probably thinks that if he left you you'd kick his ass and force him to stay or kill him or something."

Sydney gave out a harsh laugh and placed her hands on her hips. "That's funny, really is. I'd trust you to come up with something as low as that. Are you ever going to get over Michael? He doesn't love you! He doesn't even like you! How hard can that possibly be for you to understand?! Surely there's just enough room in that thing inside your head that you might just get away with calling a brain to understand that."

"Yeh you keep telling yourself that. Maybe it will comfort you when Michael and I get together."

"My god, you're freaking delusional. And this conversation is a total waste of my time, and my vocabulary. I have a boyfriend outside waiting for me, but you probably wouldn't understand that concept." Sydney said as she turned, pushed open the door and stormed out, heading in Vaughn's direction.

Vaughn saw her and offered a smile. She tried to return it, she really did try to make it look genuine, but it obviously didn't work because Vaughn immediately looked concerned, his forehead wrinkles coming into view.

Sydney sighed as she heard hurried footsteps behind her. That better not be Eliza, she thought to herself as she continued to walk. She was stopped however by an arm on her shoulder which yanked her around.

"What was that last remark of yours supposed to mean?!" Eliza spat out. "If you're actually implying that I don't know what it would be like to have a boyfriend waiting for me your wrong. Hell half of those boyfriends probably dated you or at least girls like you before they met me."

"Girls like me? How exactly would you describe girls like me?"

"Gee, let's see. Spoilt, selfish, bitchy, thinks they look good when they don't, everything has to be their way or no way, they get whatever they want, do I have to continue?" Eliza asked, obviously as a rhetorical question.

"That's how you'd describe me? Funny I had around the same definition for you." Sydney stated taking a step towards her. "You just have to have Michael and you somehow think you are actually going to get him. You're full of it. He would never go for some bitchy blonde bimbo like you!" Sydney spat out, she was about to turn around and walk off when her head snapped to her right and a slight burning pain seeped through her cheek. It took her about a second to realise that Eliza had in fact had the nerve to punch her.

"That's it!" Sydney said to herself, she was not going to put up with Eliza's shit. She sent a kick to Eliza's midriff that caused Eliza to hunch over slightly as she was faintly winded.

Eliza stepped forward and executed a series of punches, most of which Sydney blocked with the exception of one that caught her in the stomach, which was followed by Eliza's knee, also hitting her in the stomach. She took a few deep breaths before executing a roundhouse kick that connected sharply with Eliza's jaw. By this time Vaughn and Weiss had ran up to them. Vaughn grabbed Sydney around the waist, picking her up and carrying her a few feet away from Eliza while Weiss got a hold of her and dragged her to a desk before giving her a pep talk.

To Vaughn Sydney didn't appear to regret her actions. She had more of a half angry half satisfied look on her face, so her question caught him slightly off guard.

"Did I hurt her?" she asked Vaughn with no emotion detectable in her voice whatsoever.

"I don't think you hurt her badly, she'll be fine," he replied as he continued to examine her cheek where she had been punched.

"Damn."

This caused Michael to laugh softly, "Nice roundhouse kick by the way," he told her.

"Yeh, I didn't think it was to bad myself. Hey, I'm fine," she told him as she pulled away his hand that was stroking her cheek. She held it in her own hand and leaned against an unoccupied desk behind her.

Vaughn put his free hand on her hip and she put her other arm over the top of his, her hand grasping his arm just below his elbow. "You shouldn't have to go on a mission with her," he said, almost to himself.

"I don't have a choice, and besides you'll be with me. It's only one night, and the mission itself is simple enough. And once that's over we have the rest of the week to ourselves, travelling around Australia." She said with a smile.

"Yeh, I wanna see a kangaroo," he told her. He sounded so cute that Sydney grinned and kissed him quickly on the lips.

"Me too, and I wanna see a koala, they look so cute in photo's," she replied.

"Yeh, so do the Wombats," he commented.

"I forgot about those! They are cute." She said as she dragged Michael by the hand over to where Weiss was standing, beckoning them over.

"Okay kids, are we all set?" Weiss asked playfully.

"We are," Sydney replied, "Any idea about the seating arrangements on the plane?"

"Yeh, you and Vaughn are sitting a few rows from the front next to each other. Eliza, I and a few other guys helping me out are further down near the back. Kendall didn't want any fight's on the plane."

"Smart man," Sydney said.

"Let's get going then, some guys are gonna drop us off at the airport," Weiss informed them.

"Let's go,' Vaughn said, wrapping his arm around Sydney's waist, her arm automatically wrapping around his own waist as they headed out of the CIA office and into a car, leading them to the airport and the awaiting mission.

A/N let me know what you guy's think! I tried to include some fluff in this chapter as well as the plans for the mission and the stuff with Eliza. Please review if you want me to put more up, I have a surprise that I hope you guys will like that I will put up in a few chapter's time! Thanks guys!
