Changed For You

Chapter Twelve

"Who is this Marshall guy anyway? How do you know his not messing with you, that Sloane has put him up to it? This could be a trap, Sid."

"No," she said dismissively. "He wouldn't do that. Yeah, he may work for SD-6, but he doesn't know there the bad guys. Marshall wouldn't do that to me."

"Well anyway, what the hell was with you Sid, letting Sark help you? Do you know Kendall was so suspicious of you he was going to have you followed? It was because of me that I convinced him not to! Why did you let Sark even get close to you? He could've killed you!"

"Why? I don't know. But don't you think I regret it, Vaughn? I do! Ok! I hate him and if I ever set eyes on him again I will kill him. I never thought I would meet someone that cold, even in this industry."

"I warned you. We all warned you about him, Sid. Didn't you realise how many people he has killed in this way? He befriends them, tells them what they want to hear. He messes with you, then he goes in for the kill. He's a sad guy. But its still no excuse."

"I'm sorry Vaughn! I was stupid, ok? I was an idiot."

Vaughn's face softened. "I'm sorry. What the hell am I doing, lecturing you when you've taught me nearly everything I know. Its your life, your choices. I better go now anyway," he said glancing at his watch, "Lauren will be waiting."

"Lauren?" Sydney said. She thought of what Sa-, he, had told her. Should she tell Vaughn that his wife was betraying him?

He smiled at Sydney. He looked so happy. "You know, she's got this thing now, where all she talks about is our future together. She's chosen out kid's names, Sid. For, like, us to have."

Sydney laughed quietly, "Really? What names?"

"Oh, I don't know. Autumn for a girl and Jarred for a guy."

Sydney faked a smile; she personally thought these names were hideous. "Gorgeous."

"And hey," he said standing up, "don't you dare make contact with Sloane before your out of here. Its too dangerous, ok?"

"Yeah, I know. I'll just sit here and plan ways to kill Sark."

Vaughn gritted his teeth. "Let me in on the plan when you think of it. I'll help you kill that bastard."

As Vaughn walked out of her hospital room, Sydney closed her eyes. She was so tired.

She held the gun high, looking down the barrel aiming between his eyes.

"You think you can kill me?"
"Sure." she said, "Haven't you heard of me? I kill for a living. And just to let you know, I'm pretty good at it." She pulled the trigger, but someone grabbed her from behind tilting her aim. She heard the sound of the bullet bounce against the wall and a second later it plunged into her arm. She screamed in agony as the man continued to pull her arm back. The man she was trying to kill just seconds ago stood in front of her and kicked her in the stomach. Repeatedly, she was kicked and after a while she grew numb to the feeling. It was then that she heard him, "Strip her." She fell into a sea of unconsciousness as he punched her in the face.

She was sitting in a darkened room. She tensed as someone began stroking her hair. "Hush," the male's voice said, "Hush my sweet Sydney."

The room was cold and she shivered, she felt blood trickle down her cheek and into her mouth. She tried to move her arms but found she was chained to a chair. The heavy steal chains dug into her wrists. She winced.

"Why are you doing this? What do you want from me?" she muttered quietly, it hurt her throat to talk loudly.

"I am so sorry. Soon, my love, soon you will learn. Soon it will all become clear."

"Where am I?" she said through gritted teeth. The pain was beginning to be too much.

"Sydney, I am not her to hurt you. I am here to save you. I don't know what they have done to you, but you must not let them know, ever, that I took you."

"Help me," she whispered desperately. "Help me Sark."

Sydney awoke, sweating. She opened her eyes. It couldn't be.

A/N: Read and review. Thoughts on the flashback? What do you think it means?
