Chapter 4: The Bald Man

Sydney and Vaughn took the 9:00pm flight back to LA. Both of them were not happy going back to work. It was so hard to leave a really good vacation. But soon they thought, they wouldn't have to worry about missions anymore once SD-6 were eliminated. Both Sydney and Vaughn had spent the majority of the flight asleep and just woke as up the aeroplanes' wheels hit the runway below. It had only taken them an hour from the airport to their briefing where they were greeted by Kendall, the bald man.

"Good morning Agent Vaughn, Agent Bristow" he said nodding to them in turn "How was your vacation, Cyprus wasn't it?"

"yes, it was wonderful" replied Sydney, smiling at Vaughn.

Sydney and Vaughn entered the briefing room and Sydney was greeted with a hug from her Father.

"Sweetheart, I gathered you had a good time?"

"It was lovely, Daddy" she gave him a peck on the cheek before sitting down next to Vaughn, hand in hand.

"Shall we begin?" announced Kendall. Everyone nodded.

"As you are aware we have secured the whereabouts' of Arvin Slone. I feel this is the time that we should take down SD-6. I would like Agents Vaughn, Bristow and Dixon to partake in this mission. Agent Dixon I would like you to be on com link and Agents Vaughn and Bristow I would like you to break into the building and remove Slone. I will send in a team of other men to provide you with some back up if you need it. Mr Bristow you will be waiting outside to accompany Slone when he is captured. Marshall will provide you with the gadgets you will need. Your plane to Bulgaria leaves in an three hours. Dismissed."

Sydney and Vaughn dismissed themselves from the room and made their way over to Marshall's gadget room. Sydney opened the door, only to startle Marshall. He jumped.

"Oh Syd…Agent Bristow you made me jump!"

She blushed slightly "Sorry"

"It's okay…you came to see the gadgets…you will…em…need for the mission to Bulgaria. Did you know I have never been to Bulgaria? I would love to go…did you know I also…" Vaughn cut him off.

"The Gadgets Marshall"

"Ah yes." He picked up the first gadget "This looks like an ordinary pen to you doesn't it? Well it looks like a pen, writes like a pen but it does another thing" He took off the lid off the pen.

"If I click the pen it turns into a syringe and back to a pen for writing. You can…em…stick it in…erm Slone's arm and he will collapse like this" Sydney let out a few giggles as Marshall fell to the floor pretending to have collapsed.

"This one is for you…Agent Vaughn. It's um a cigarette but you don't smoke it. Just…em turn it on here and it will produce a deadly sleeping toxin that will put people to sleep. Remember to wear your mask and you too agent Bristow or you'll…em go to sleep. I don't think you shouldn't sleep on the job and em…" Marshall looked nervously around the room "You want some jelly babies?"

Sydney smiled Sweetly "No thank you Marshall. Vaughn and I should get ready"

"Err yes. Sorry…yes you should…good luck"

"Thanks Man" Vaughn said as they left the room.

+++++++++

Sydney and Vaughn took their gadgets and in three hours took their plane to Bulgaria, ready for the take down.
