Chapter 18 - Wiped

It was a few weeks before I had another meeting with my mother.

And like all the meetings I have on the outside with my mother.

It ended up in pain.

This time the pain was for me.

And as usual my mother's motives at that time were a complete mystery to me.

Me, I had a reason to be there.

A good reason.

I was trying to clear Will's name.

To prove he wasn't doubled and he wasn't the mole.

So I went to that server farm to get the Intel I knew would clear his name.

It just didn't work out that way.

I got their to find her standing in my way.

Her holding my friends future in her hand.

Sydney runs into the main room of the facility. In it was amass of servers and on one of them it held the information she desperately needed. She reaches the guard, an unmoving guard. She turns him to face her and finds he throat sit. She takes a step back

"Hello, Sydney." Irina says a taser in her hand. A taser she jabs at Sydney sending a current of electricity through her which brings her to the ground

Irina does this a few more times. As Sydney cries out in pain on the floor.

"I know what you're after. Your friend's suspected of being a double. You believe the information on this server could clear him." Irina says holding up the kill switch will erase all the files on the server. She goes to the press the button.

"No, don't--!" Sydney cries

But it's to late. Irina does it. She erases the files of the server.

"You erased it..." Sydney says to her.

"I transferred a copy to a secure location. I'll give it to you. In exchange, I want you to do something." Irina says trying to get her daughter back to her side.

"Go to hell!" Sydney screams out at her

"If you don't, you'll never clear Will's name. He'll be tried as a traitor and executed. I'll be calling on you soon, Sydney." Irina says before running out, leaving Sydney on the floor broken.

She shocked me.

That's nothing compared to the mental pain she has caused me.

I didn't really care about that then.

All I cared about was Will.

And all I wanted to know.

Was how did she know?

If Will was the mole which according to Kendall he was.

How could he passed this on to her?

He was still in custody when we found out about the server farm.

Did my mother know who the other person doubled was?

Was she having everyone involving project helix survielled?

Or was the mole was still there?

And in a position where everything the C.I.A knew, they would know.

I had only told one person after my mother's escape, about what was going on. That I was C.I.A and the mission to the server farm.

It was Francie I told, my oldest friend.

It couldn't have anything to do with her.

Could it?

All I could figure was that my mother had something to play in this pretty game.

I just need to figure out her next move.

But what a move it was.

It left me a bit stunned.
