We Have All the Time in the World
The ice that had layered itself upon Sydney was so cold that it had frozen her veins and blood. The ice slowly rose up to her brain but was stopped as Vaughn shook her awake.
"Hey Syd, your going to be ok."
He looked down at her and smiled. He loved her so much and the thought of losing her again would surely kill him. He thought back when he saw her house on fire and thought she was dead.
Then Lauren came into his mind. The cold hearted bitch that got in the way of him and Sydney and even tried to kill her. Now she really was cold hearted as she lay lifeless in her grave. He got Lauren out of his mind and focused again on Sydney.
He hauled her up onto his shoulders and grabbed hold of the rope that was tied to his back. He unclipped it and tied it around Sydney and then clipped it back. He dug his feet into the side of the pit and started to climb. He heard a helicopter above and thought it must have been Sloane. The climb up was long but they eventually made it to the top. Vaughn placed Sydney down and got out his walkie talkie.
"Calypso this is Shotgun I need a medic and transportation up here now"
He waited until the man known as Calypso contacted back. "Copy that Shotgun, we're on our way."
Vaughn cut off and bent down to Sydney. "Help's on the way Syd." He gently kissed her forehead and held it in his arms to keep her head warm.
Although not fully awake, she knew Vaughn was holding her. She slowly drifted off knowing she was now safe. She thought about Isabelle, Will, Francie, her father and Vaughn before she finally fell unconscious.
Police, F.B.I and the C.I.A surrounded the blast area in seconds, medics and nurses following each for the survivors.
"Son of a bitch" Jack said, thinking about Sloaneas he looked around at the civilians screaming.
"Rachel." He called over to her as she stood in disbelief.
He called again, making her aware of what was going on around her. She walked up to Jack, her eyes wet and swollen.
"I'm sorry about Grace and there will be a time to grief but now is not that time. I need everyone on finding Sark, Peyton and Sloane."
Rachel nodded in agreement and then walked away. Jack was unsure that she could still work however his worries were put to rest as he saw her talking to an agent and looking determined.
He clicked his ear which made a beeping sound and then spoke. "Dixon, any word yet from Sydney or Vaughn."
"None yet but you'll be the first to know."
Jack didn't have any time to reply as a gun prodded his back. "Start moving Mr Bristow"
He knew the voice immediately and obeyed. He kept walking, the barrel of the gun gently probing his back until they reached a recently abandoned building. "Get in"
Jack obeyed and opened the doors. His kidnapper followed and then closed the door behind them.
Jack turned to face his sister in law and got something he didn't expect. Katya pushed her lips onto his and grabbed his head with her hands, pulling him in. Both their lips were moist which meant there was a slight squelching noise. The kiss lasted about a minute until Katya finally pulled away.
"Wow, I have not done that in a while."
Jack smiled slightly but felt uncomfortable. "What was that for?"
She pushed him into the wall and kissed him again. "I've already told you Mr Bristow, you ask to many questions."
