AN: I am so sad that Chuck has ended, and I was definitely not happy with the ending, I've never been one for cliffhanger endings so that was pretty disappointing. Chuck was three awesome years of my life (cause I only started watching at season three and caught up on DVD) and I am really sad to see it end, especially the way that it did. I mean it half makes me wish that it ended at season 4 cause that was happy at least, Chuck and Sarah were married and loaded. But then again most of seson five was good, it's just the ending that ticked me off. I wish that Chuck didn't be a hero and just let Sarah get all her memories back, but I guess it would't really be Chuck if it ended like that. In most cases I don't go for a cliche'd happy ending but in this case I was really rooting for one. I don't even know why they ended Chuck after season five. As far as I know the ratings weren't doing too bad and it didn't get cancelled. Oh well I guess I can just hope that they make a Chuck movie or another network picks the show up or there's a spin off or something.

Anyway, enough ranting, hope you enjoy this chapter and please review.

Disclaimer: Since the show's done for the momet I might try to buy Chuck off Schwartz and Fedak, but since I don't, for now I don't own Chuck.


Chapter 3

Chuck quickly found Sarah and the two of them rushed to Casey's apartment. He still lived in Echo Park and they knocked on his door.

"Bout time," he grunted, letting them in.

"Okay, Casey," Chuck asked. "What's the big emergency?"

Casey picked up a piece of paper and showed it to them. "This, Bartowski is the big emergency!"

Chuck and Sarah quickly scanned the paper it seemed to all be written in some sort of code language, not particularly easy to understand. "It's all written in code," Sarah said. "What about it?"

"Look at the bottom closely, very closely," Casey instructed.

The Bartowski's looked at it again and despite the appearance to make it look like barcoding, the letters were now clear. ORION. The thought repeated in Chuck's head over and over again. Orion, Orion, Orion. My dad's back? No way! It can't be...Can it? He was shot...I watched him die when Shaw...How is this even posibble? I think I should lie down before I pass out.

"Chuck, are you okay?" Sarah asked, noticing the look on her husband's face, he was spiraling in his mind.

"Oh? Um...yeah, actually no, I'm not sure really. This is just...wow, you know," Chuck rambled. "Casey, where did you even get this?"

"It was sent to me by one General Dianne Beckman," Casey answered."Why?I have no clue, but if it's Orion...What'd you reckon, Chuck?"

"I, uh...I don't know. I don't even get what the code is. Wow...wow, my dad's back, is he? That's just um..."

Casey rolled his eyes. "Well, Beckman also sent this to me," he said reaching into his pocket and taking out a flah drive. "What do you suppose it means?"

Chuck was once again scanning over the code with his eyes. "Okay, I think this might have something to do with the Intersect."

Sarah froze at the mention of the Intersect, in her short period of time as one, she had managed to do the dirty work of Quinn, try kill her husband and forget the last five years. Thanks to Chuck that had been fixed, but it still gave her the creeps.

"The Intersect?"

"Yeah, um I don't know the full of it but maybe someone else could fix the code I can't really figure it out right now. Why did Beckman send this to you anyway?" Chuck asked. "I thought you quit the NSA."

Casey grunted. "That's what I thought too, but apparently, the NSA have seem to have forgotten that."

"So what exactly do we do?" Sarah asked. "What's in the flash drive, Casey?"

"From what I gather another one of those Orion puzzles, I plugged it in to my computer but it wouldn't let me get in without solving some kind of riddle"

"What exactly was the riddle, Casey?" Chuck asked. "Usually it's stuff from me and Ellie's childhood."

He shrugged. "Don't remember, exactly."

Chuck walked over to Casey's computer, just as he was about to plug it in, he had a thought and retarcted the falsh drive from the USB port. "No," he said blankly. "No, I can't do it. No way, nuh uh, forget it."

"Chuck?" Sarah asked her husband.

"What if it's another Intersect? What if I solve the riddle and I download another one. Not happening. I'm not gonna be a spy again and I'm certainly not putting our family in danger, Sarah," he said, then he turned to Casey. "Find out why Beckman sent this to you," he said.

Casey understood what Chuck meant. He didn't want to put his family in danger, he wouldn't want Alex or Kate or Gertrude or-God help-me [Casey thought] Morgan Grimes in danger. He'd find out why Beckamn sent it.

He nodded to them. "I'll try find out, no promises."

"Thanks, Casey," Sarah said as she and Chuck left Casey's apartment. Chuck was silent on the drive back home. Sarah knew that he was thinking about his dad and the Intersect and everything.

"You wanna talk about it?" Sarah offered.

"My dad. I have no idea whether the man I thought was dead for fifteen years is alive or not and I have no damn idea what is in that flash drive. I mean I'm scared it could be another Intersect but I can't help being a little bit curious."


Bartowski Residence

Tyler was begrudgingly letting SJ play Halo with his friend, Nick as he watched boredly at the screen. Tyler was trying to find Nick and kept changing in between his sniper scope gun and his needler.

"This is really stupid. I could be watching history being made in WWE, but no I have to watch you and your friend play this dumb as game."

SJ ignored his brother. He had a streak of seven to four kills going for him and was not about to start lowering his game. Just then the phone rang. Tyler jumped up to pick up the receiver, hoping something interesting would happen.

"Hello? No this is his brother, who's calling? Um I'll see if he's available. Give me a minute," he covered the talking part of the phone so the person on the otehr line couldn't hear. "SJ, it's for you."

"Say I'm busy," SJ said accomplishing his eighth kill. "Yes!" he grinned.

"It's Lucy Shields," Tyler replied.

SJ paused the game and ran up to his brother. "Gimmie!" he said.

Tyler rolled his eyes and handed him the phone. SJ walked up to his room with the phone, Tyler could hear bits and pieces of what his brother was saying.

"Hey, Lucy. Nah, not much, how bout you? Really? That sounds pretty cool... I know that assignment from Mr Delaney was totally unfair...I know right, I haven't even started... Good I'm not the only one. So anyway..."

Tyler rolled his eyes again and changed the AV of the TV so that he could watch a match between Wade Barret and Randy Orton. He grinned.

"No holds barred, my favorite," he said smiling as he watched RKO slam Barret into a table.


AN: So what did you think? Once again I'm quite disapointed in the way that Chuck ended. Oh well, fingers crossed for a movie or something like that. Anyway if you didn't know RKO is another name for Randy Orton.

Anyways, thanks for reading and please please review.
