"Alex?!", Michael couldn't believe his eyes. "You! Wha...why?" Micheal was furious, Alex was a traitor,and they had trusted her. How could she do this to Nikita? And to think he actually was about to leave Nikita alone and vulnerable with her. but what he didn't get was that if she were really working for Amanda, the person with whim she must be talking on the phone with, then why did she take him, why not directly go after Nikita. Frustrated and confused, Michael started to struggle against his restraints trying to break free, unable to do so only added to his anger, and in his rage he started to question her "what the hell is wrong with you?! Why are you doing this!"
"you'd understand right if... If it were Nikita, you'd do anything to protect her right?" Alex kept mumbling on not even listening to Michael.
"What the hell are you talking about? What is the meaning of this?" Michael was really confused now, watching Alex prance around in a kind of trance repeating the same things again and again.
"She said she'll do it, she promised if I came through that she'll do it. U'd have done the same for Nikita, and she'll understand right? Nikita? But what about Amanda?"
Michael had calmed down by now, he found himself strangely worried for Alex and the state she was in, he no longer saw her as a traitor or a kidnapper but just as a worried girl scared out of her mind. "Alex what are you talking about? What's wrong. who promised you? look at me! Now tell me .It?" , Michael asked trying it calm her down, it was strange how he was the one tied to a chair and yet she was freaking out.
" Michael THEY HAVE SEAN!", Alex said now sobbing.
"what? What do you mean they 'HAVE' Sean."
"Meaning they know EVERYTHING about Sean and I teaming up with Nikita and our relationship, and now Amanda has him, and she's probably going to kill him unless I give her Nikita's location, but I couldn't do that, not to Nikita and not in the condition she is in now. So i told her that she had gotten shot and that you were hiding her somewhere so, instead I promised to give her you, in return for Sean. She'll probably try to torture her location out of you. Oh god what have I done?! I'm so sorry but they have Sean, they have him, and I have to get him back, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry", Alex said tears steaming down her face and desperation obvious in her features
"Ok look relax, we'll figure out a way to get him back, but you can't just give me to her, AMANDA CANNOT BE TRUSTED. You have to let me go, I was on my way to kill her, and if I succeed in my mission, Sean would no-longer be in first take these stupid restraints off, please."
"No...no, I'm sorry but if Amanda even gets the slightest hint that we're working together, she'll kill Sean, I... I can't take that risk."
" fine I won't go just like that, I'll help. You,birkhoff and I can save Sean and this little trade thing will give me an easy access into division it can all workout. But first you have to free me."
"Ok... Ok I'll free you, but you have a very short time before I have to make the trade so call Birkhoff and come up with a plan fast, because if i delay, Amanda will know something's off."
As soon as Michael was free, he reached for his phone calling Birkhoff. He thought this wasn't such a bad thing, maybe with a team and an actual plan, he may just have a better chance at surviving this.
After some time spent discussing and arguing, they had finally reached a decision, Michael was to be traded at the original time decided by Alex, about three hours from now. He could have no tracker or wireless communication on him meaning he would be completely alone in there, which was the tricky part. But thanks to birkhoff, he would be able to hack into division's mainframe, having designed it himself but it would be risky, because, in order for him to override the system, a bug would have to planted manually in the tech lab which was going to be the most difficult task after this the plan was fairly simple, communication could be restored with Birkhoff, who could then give Michael access Amanda office even if it is locked. after that he just has to take out a couple hundred trained assassins and just kill Amanda himself. It was better this way, kind of, because now instead of going on this suicide mission alone, he could drag Birkhoff with him and may just be able to save Sean's life in the process.
"those bitches wont know what hit em" Birkhoff said, gloating
"yeah but what if I get killed or kill Amanda's puppets before I actually reach the tech lab" ,asked Michael not really comfortable with the odds of this working
"Relax Mickey, Amanda won't kill you, the only thing you have to be worried about is her torturing you, and both of us know she can be a real bitch if it comes to that" Birkhoff said not entirely joking, what he didn't realize was that he had been a little to loud. And so had been unprepared for this next remark and its speaker.
"Michael WHAT?!" Cried Nikita, standing right behind Birkhoff and having heard only the last part of the conversation.
