But anyhow, Thanksgiving break and I got to update several of my stories this week! And means I updated all my stories (except my LotR one) this month, it's a good recorded for me! But anyhow I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving! I did except I was the youngest and everyone picked on me, come one, they are soooo mean! But it was fun!

To my 4 Reviewers! THANKYOU ALL!

Star 16~ that was the best review ever, evil, yes I am!

Lily~ Crack. um, maybe, you should ask my friends not me! Or maybe I'm on something else; maybe I'm like SAG and am on pop! And I like Vaughn, so why on earth would I keep him dead?!?!?! But then again I like reviews and maybe depending on how many people want him alive!

OH it's SHORT! SORRY, but it just happened that way! Anywho that's all I wanted to say. On with thine story!

"What did you figure out this time?" Dixon asked Weiss and Sydney while the others listened carefully.

Weiss looked at Sydney and saw nothing that reflected fear of what would happen if he were to tell what he as well as she found out on this mission. But Eric Weiss knew that deep down in Sydney's soul was a cowardly fear overwhelming her insides. And even to help his best friend, his other one was here with him and he loved her too much to tell what discoveries were made on their trip.

"Nothing new," Weiss answered, receiving a small stare of shook from Sydney. The others just looked with disappointment.

"Sydney?" Dixon asked for a different answer.

For a second Sydney Bristow wanted to tell them everything. In her mind a wall was tumbling and all her power was falling with it. She wanted to know about her past two years, she NEEDED to know about her past two years, and what if this was the only way? But she knew if she wanted to ever have a chance of finding her daughter she would have to have all her strength, and a sane mind.

"We think we know where Vaughn is," Sydney replied. Weiss looked at her in utter shock but recovered quickly.

"Yes I nearly forgot."

Lauren looked reviled as ever and seemed almost like she was going to jump with joy, but she remained neutral. Sydney caught a glance from Lauren and hate was filled in both of their eyes. Sydney despised Lauren, but yet she hated herself more than that.

"Good you and team with go and retrieve him once you find out his exact location. Are we clear?" Dixon spoke with such authority. Nods followed his statement and he smiled. "Then you are all dismissed."

At this all six of them walked out of the conference room and went their separate ways; except Jack who followed Sydney to a corner. Sydney didn't at one moment looked shocked by her father's presence.

"What did you find out when you were there?" Jack asked his daughter calmly.

"You already know, nothing important."

"Sydney, you are my daughter and you should know by now that I can tell when you are trying to hid something. So don't try to hide it from me."

"I don't know what you're talking about." Sydney replied angrily to her father.

"Yes you do, now tell me." Jack pulled her into a deserted hallway. "Now please, what is going on?"

"Not here, at my home tonight. I will tell you. Be there at 7:00 tonight and you will get your answer. Sydney told Jack and swiftly made her way out of the Ops Center.

*~*~*~*

Lauren walked out of the conference room and made her way to her desk. She hated Sydney, every about her she hated. She wanted her gone, dead, anything to get her away from her and HER husband. Sydney Bristow should go back to the dead.

Lauren Reed turned on her computer and opened her most private file. The one she savored popped onto the screen. She smiled ever so much as she read a new e-mail she received from on of her colleges.

Lauren wrote more into the file, and then she grinned in complete happiness. She clicked the save button and she closed the file that read the name 'Sydney Bristow.'
