Wow, it's been like months but I'm gunna try to get this story back on track...I'm really busy but I'm gunna try my hardest and the reviews are really what prompt me to do more. So for all of you have forgotten the story I hope you can get back into it and for those of you who have never read it I really hope you enjoy.

(I don't own anything except Katelyn)

The knock came again more loudly.

"It's probably just Katelyn, I'll get it." But before Sydney could take a step Vaughn grabbed her arm.

"I gave her a key." Both shared a look fearing it was Jack and not wanting the confrontation but mostly not wanting Katelyn to walk in on it. Before they worried too much they heard the familiar voice, "Hello? I know you two are in there, Mike's car's outside. Don't try to hide from me, I'm CIA." he said jokingly.

Sydney quickly went to the door, "Eric, thank god."

"Hey, sorry to be short, but what the hell is going on? Actually I'm not sorry. not at all, in the past 48 hours I broke you out of the hospital, helped you compose a covert op, brought you to him, and got you out of lock down. All together broke over 100 laws and lost a year of my life because of anxiety. So please, an explanation would be nice!"

"I agree," they all turned around to see where the voice was coming from, it was Katelyn who snuck in the back door just in time to hear Weiss' outburst, "I mean I didn't really do all that but I did cut a date short with a really hot guy and in my life that's even more important."

"you'll both get your explanation, just sit down." Sydney directed everyone to the living room and they all took seat, Syd and Vaughn on one couch Eric and Katelyn on the other.

"I feel like I'm at the principal's office," Katelyn side-commented to Weiss.

"I know what you mean."

"Alright, Katelyn you're a little behind, basically Vaughn's wife was working for a terrorist organization that was responsible for my...disappearance."

"Yea, I know, The covenant. I've read your file."

"I thought my file was classified?"

"My job at the CIA was hacking into computers and refiguring codes, breaking into files was a time passer."

"Right before Vaughn killed Lauren she told me a bank number in Wittenberg so I went to the bank and looked in the vault..."

Sydney went on to explain everything in the file to two very quiet agents. Eric's eyes showed anger, anger for taking away one of his best-friends for two years and Katelyn's illustrated remorse for Vaughn's pain that she helped him get through. Sydney finally ended with explaining that they needed to find Vaughn's "strength." At this point Vaughn interjected...

"Kae, we think that person may be you."

"God, am I the only one rambaldi didn't care about?" Weiss asked to no one in particular.

"You think I'm the one to help you find peace? Just because I didn't let you drink yourself to death? If I knew all this would've happened I would've left you as a drunk."

Sydney took out the disks and tossed them in front of Katelyn, "you're the only person who can decrypt these. It's details of the mission, details of all of our lives."

"Got a lab top?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Within 5 minutes Katelyn had the disk in the computer and was typing at a speed Vaughn, Syd, and Weiss didn't know was possible.

"damn, these CIA guys are pretty good."

"Too good?" Sydney asked, fearing a yes.

Katelyn didn't look away from the screen but just continued to type, "they're never too good." she replied ½ joking ½ serious. "here it comes."

A few seconds later and a little more typing she accessed it. The screen lit up with pages after pages of detailed missions, contacts, and rambaldi prophecies. All CIA and all containing all too familiar names. Possible people who could've been Vaughn's "strength" cluttered the screen, their number one suspect was Katelyn. There were documents saying some of the missions Syd and Vaughn risked their lives for were planned. Missions tracking Eric, making sure he bent over backwards to help Syd and Vaughn. Covert CIA agents on the other side of guns which fired at them. A complete play by play of the night leading up to Syd's disappearance. Names of the agents who carried her out of the building. Her own father drove the car to the airport. Vaughn's dad set the fire. Reading all of this page by page the four agents stood dumbfounded.

Katelyn was the first one to speak, the first one to let her façade of calmness and composure fade, with a nervous voice she asked, "what do we do now?"

Sydney responded without hesitation, "we get our lives back."
