The Angel of Death Comes to Close
Chapter 3-
APO:
As they entered APO, Sydney remembered how she swore to herself that the spy part of her life and her personal life would never mix. That changed with Will and Sydney promised herself that this life will never touch Francie. Now she failed twice and then started to second guess her choosing to stay in this life.
"Hey guys, we have a meeting now in the conference room", Weiss said as he came up to them.
"As some of you may know Francie, Sydney's roommate was abducted from their apartment. There was a ransom note which is currently in analysis. The demands of the letter was that they wanted the disk that Sydney acquired. We have to figure out a way to get Francie back and still keep the disk. Any of you have any ideas?", Sloane said.
"What if we give them a fake of the disk?", Vaughn asked.
"Well what if whoever took her checks it and sees that it is a fake and they kill her?", Sydney countered. "I think that we should just give him whatever he wants. There is an innocent woman out there and I am not going to let her die."
"Sydney, may I talk to you for a second, alone?" Everyone packed up and left and Vaughn gave her shoulder a squeeze for reassurance. "Sydney, I think that your personal stake in this matter is clouding your judgment. I know that you want to find her, but I think that you should sit this one out".
"I am not going to sit by and let my friend suffer because of me. Also, I'm pregnant and am going to need some time off".
"Ok, well how about you sit out the investigation until we find where she is and then you can go and accompany her back. But let me make this very clear, you are not to work until then and then after this mission, we will talk about your maternity leave".
"Ok, thanks".
"Sydney, we will find her." After her meeting with Sloane, Sydney raced to find Vaughn. She found him talking to her sister and Weiss.
"Hey what happened", Vaughn asked as he kissed her.
"He told met that he thought that my personal stake in this was clouding my judgment and that I am not going to work until they actually send out a team to get her. And I told him about the other thing".
"What other thing", Nadia asked.
"I'm pregnant".
"Congratulations", they both said as they gave Vaughn and Sydney each a hug.
"So, I heard about your date", Sydney said. At this they both turn five shades of red.
"It went well, and we are going out again and wanted to know if you two wanted to come out with us?"
"Sure, I think that I am going to go home and get some sleep, this whole thing has really taken a lot out of me", Sydney said.
"Ok, call me before you go to bed".
The apartment:
When Sydney got home, her head was spinning and she had a little bit of a stomach ache. She figured that it most have been something that she had eaten and went to her room to get ready for bed. Remembering that she promised to call Vaughn, she picked up the phone and dialed an all to familiar number.
"Hey sweetie"
"Hey, are you feeling ok?"
"I will be fine, I just think that it is something that I…"
"Sydney, are you ok, are you there, SYDNEY". With that, he hung up his phone, and raced out of APO and to Sydney's apartment.
"Hey man, where you going", Weiss asked as he saw his best friend run past him.
"I think that something is wrong with Syd. I was talking to her and then all of a sudden she just stopped."
"I'll cover for you".
