Disclaimer: I don't own anything, except a $40000 student loan, so please don't sue me
Plot takes place just before the events of 11:46 pm day1 where Jack sends Mason the incriminating video footage of Nina murdering Jamey and planting the evidence to make it appear to be suicide thus proving her to be the mole. Not entirely accurate to the events that took place during the end of this episode.
Tony Almeida leaned forward in his chair, elbows propped up against his desk and his head resting against his hands. 'Is this friggin day ever gonna as he reflected on the day. He sighed as he ran his hands through his hair, he had been up for more then 24 hours and could not remember being this tired ever....
Tony looked up and searched around CTU for Nina Myers, his girlfriend, but couldn't see her anywhere. He smiled to himself, thinking of how much trouble he had gone through today trying to help her out and cover for Jack, but she was worth it. His past history of relationships had been nothing to brag about. He loved feisty, stubborn women but it had always bugged him how emotionally detached they always were. Nina was no different but he had learned to accept that. Truthfully he knew that their relationship mainly consisted of sex and companionship. But Tony knew that he had forfeit any chance of a real relationship when he decided to join the marines way back, and then accepting this position at CTU. His life was his job as sad as that sounded, there was no room for passionate relationships, the 2.5 children, the family dog and the utopian white picket fence . He knew that she was the best he could get with the path in life that he chose. He loved being around her, and although he couldn't exactly say that he loved her, he did care for her deeply. And to think he had almost lost her today he thought sadly. All he wanted to do now was go home with Nina, put all the past and the day's events behind them and hold her tightly against his chest.
He was kicking himself for accusing her for still sleeping with Jack at the beginning of the day . Perhaps his jealousy of her and Jack's previous relationship had skewed his judgment towards of both her and Jack Bauer. He didn't hate Jack, but he didn't entirely trust him either. Jack's practices at work were too unethical for his liking. It almost seemed like Jack got a rise out of breaking the rules and being the bad ass of CTU. To Jack it was always the end justifies the mean despite the consequences. But Tony saw Jack in a new light after today. Knowing what Jack had been up against, Tony knew his actions would have been the same even if Nina had not been there to steer him into the right direction. And the events that had transpired with Jacks family consolidated the unspoken rule regarding CTU and family in Tony's mind. There was no way to balance both, and there never would be.
"Almeida......Almeida"
Tony was jolted out of his thoughts suddenly and saw George Mason walking quickly towards his desk. 'Oh shit'.
"Why the hell is my system locked down?" Mason inquired as he approached the desk. Tony began to open his mouth to reply, his mind veering 100 miles a minute.
George interrupted, "Nevermind, I need to initiate a level one lockdown", as he pushed by Tony and started typing on the keyboard.
"Why" asked Tony with a puzzled look on his face "What are you up to George? "
George's phone rang in his pocket and he reached to answer it "Mason" George gestured for Tony to finish the lockdown protocol. "Yeah, was Jack right with his suspicions ? ....Ok send the video feed over to Almeida's station, my system is malfunctioning" George hung up his phone and started retrieving the sent video feed off the system.
"Tony, I need you to focus now, no matter what this feed shows, you have a job to do"
A deep sinking feeling started to seize his entire body. 'What the hell is Mason playing at?' Tony watched his screen in fear as he saw the picture of the ITS room display onto his screen
"Sir, where did this feed come from, there's no cameras in there, I verified it myself.".
"No not on the main system, but Walsh was suspicious that CTU had been infiltrated and he had installed additional manual security cameras....Just watch"
Tony stared at the monochromatic video footage, not knowing what to expect, yet a deep sense of dread had imbedded itself in the pit of his stomach. Jamey was sitting handcuffed in the chair with a panic stricken look on her face, just where he and Nina had left her earlier in the day after they had discovered that she had been bought out. Tony glanced at the time counter on the monitor 'wait that was 10 minutes before Jamey died, what the hell' He knew what the outcome would be. Suddenly the door opened and Nina confidently walked into the ITS room and moved towards Jamey face totally blank and emotionless.
"Sorry Jamey you screwed up, I'm not taking the fall for this" Nina said coldly.
Jamey looked up at Nina in shock and questioning "What? Your not.."
"What you and who your working for never realized is that your just a pawn in something much bigger, and I'm not taking the fall for your stupid mistakes" Nina interjected calmly.
With that Nina smashed the coffee mug that sat on the desk and put a hand of Jamey's mouth to muffle any screaming and proceeded to calmly slit Jamey's wrists. In a matter of seconds Jamey was unconscious. Both Tony and George stared at the screen in utter disbelief. Tony felt numb all over.
"Jesus Christ" Tony uttered to himself ' No this can't be right, Nina would never...' But deep down he knew the truth and knew that he would never be able to erase those images from his mind.
