I just wanted to tell you THANK YOU for all your reviews .
Chapter three
Once Agent Williams was out, Vaughn turned toward Sydney.
"Can you tell me what that means?"
"No, I can't, because if I say something then you'll report it to your superiors, and I don't want to put my daughter's life in danger."
"What? I thought we were friends."
"You're right, we were. I'm sorry, but my daughter is more important than anything else in the world. And if I have to spend the rest of my life in CIA custody then okay. I would do anything to protect her."
"And you think that leaving her with Derevko means that she is safe?"
"Yes, like I told you, my mother loves her more than anything else. And she wants what is best for her."
"But Derevko is obsessed with Rambaldi, and if what we heard is true, than she's in more danger with...."
"Don't you dare judge her or her actions. I trust my mother with my life… like I used to trust you."
"You don't trust me anymore?" he said, pained because she used the past tense.
"No, I learned to trust only a few people, because in our world you can't believe the others. If you do, then one day they is going to betray you."
"It's wasn't like that with me."
"You're wrong."
"What? I never betrayed you."
"Stop, I don't want to talk about this anymore," she almost cried.
"Then maybe you can tell me more about your daughter."
"She's the sweetest little girl I've ever seen. There aren't enough words to describe her. She's the only one who can make me smile or laugh when I'm depressed. I don't know what I would have done without her these last few years. Michelle is the one who gives me the strength to get up every morning. All the things I've done were for her," she said as her smile disappeared and her face got darker.
"And from what you said, she's the woman in Rambaldi's prophecy?"
"Yes, it's hard to believe it, isn't it? A little girl who's barely five years old is going to bring down the first power. Thanks to the CIA, everybody must be looking for her now, especially the Covenant. They always wanted to have her, and now they can find her," she said angrily.
"What do you mean?"
"That once I gave birth, I took her away from them and hid her where they couldn't find her."
"Where?"
"I'm not stupid enough to give you her location. "
"She's there, isn't she?"
"Listen to me carefully because I'm going to say it only once. Stay away from Michelle or you will pay if you ever touch her. Is that clear?" she says very seriously.
"Yes," he said as he walked away. Just as he was about to open the door, something came to his mind. "Sydney, why did you name her Michelle?"
"Michelle is the feminine of her father's name. I think that you have the answer you were looking for."
"So she's..."
"That doesn't concern you!"
"Yes it concerns me, because she's my daughter. I have every right..."
"No, you don't have any rights. For me, her father is dead. So don't pretend to be concerned about her well being. You've only been aware of her existence for half an hour. And you've only known that you have a daughter for five minutes or so. So please don't play the role of the concerned father, because you're not."
"No, it's you who should stop acting like it's none of my business. She's my daughter and I think I have the right to know her and the duty to protect her."
"I did it for years without your help, and believe me, it's going to stay like that. I never asked you to help me or anything else."
"Then maybe it's time to start asking for help, because if you still haven't noticed, it looks like you're going to be locked in here for a long time," he said angrily. He walked away without realizing that Sydney was crying. She knew that he was right - she couldn't do anything to help her daughter from where she was.
Sydney's POV
Oh God, please help me protect my daughter. I'll never forgive myself if something happens to her. I know she's safe, but not for long. Vaughn's mother can hide her from the Covenant, but she can't protect her from their agents. What am I going to do? ... Please make sure that everything will be alright.
