Hey guys! So new chapter here, and I apologize for any future delays due to either my laziness or the fact that I now have a beta. Different schedules for both of us means that these chapters might be uploaded a few days after I've written them, but that also means that I'll have a lot of chapters in queue. Working on a 5th chapter right now, so you guys can expect that soon. I plan on continuing this story for as long as Nikita is on the air (whether the 3rd season is the last, or it keeps going past season 5).

Alex hid under the bed. Birkhoff had given her the signal, and she was supposed to get under some cover.

- CRASH-

She saw the glass shards raining down around her.

"Alex! Are you okay?" She heard Sean's voice. She crawled out, avoiding the glass.

"I'm fine." She answered. Alex ran over to Sean and gave him a kiss.

"I've missed you."

"I missed you too... Are Michael and Nikita here?" She looked up trying to find them.

"They're outside guarding the van. It's about 5 minutes away on foot. Here's your comm." Sean handed her the flesh colored device small enough to fit in her ear. Alex put it in her ear as Sean attached the suspension rope to her and tugged on the rope that hung above them. She held onto him tightly as they were taken up and above the prison she had occupied for the past month. They pulled themselves over the ledge and stood safely on the roof. Alex was still facing Sean, and didn't notice anything around them until Sean put his hands up.

"Amanda saw through the surveillance camera. She sent backup to where you guys are right now." Nikita told her through the comm.

"Yeah, I figured..." Alex muttered.

They were surrounded by 10 agents on one side in about a 15 feet radius. All their guns were trained on them. Behind them were a few of their Division agents sneaking onto the roof.

"Attack on 3," Sean whispered,"1...2...3!" He threw his leg up and knocked the gun out of the hands of the man in front of him as Alex kicked another, leaving him on the ground in pain. They were the perfect team. They moved simultaneously and worked together as one to take out the agents around them. Meanwhile, the team behind the agents took care of the rest.

- PEW -

"AGHH!" Alex moaned. She had been shot in the leg.

"Alex! Are you okay?!" Sean asked her as she fell to the ground, a look of panic in his eyes.

"Uggh" was all she could choke out.

"What happened?" Nikita asked, her voice laced with worry.

"Alex got shot in the leg."

"Bring her to the van. Now." Nikita commanded.

Sean ripped off his jacket, and pressed it to the wound. He tied it on tightly around her leg. "Alex, I need you to put pressure on your leg." He tried to stay calm. Alex slowly moved her hands to the wound and winced as she pushed down on it. Sean had her climb onto his back. Moving quickly towards the ladder before they were attacked yet again, he held her tightly against him. As he reached the ground, he put her down, and picked her up in a way that would allow him to run through the forest to the van quickly.

"Nikita we're headed towards the van." Sean said into his comm. Alex wrapped her arms around Sean's neck, trying to hold on.

- pew pew pew -

Sean ducked as he went for cover behind a tree.

- pew pew pew -

He ran a little bit faster.

"Alex, can you hide out behind a tree while I go take care of those guys?"

"Yes of course, I'll be fine." Alex grunted as Sean put her down next to the large tree trunk. She pushed herself backwards so her back was touching the tree. Two minutes went by, and she heard rustling in the bushes. She peeked out from behind the tree and saw a man with a large gun. He was dressed in black. She quickly hid again. Making sure she wouldn't be seen or heard, she half walked, half dragged herself to the cover of another tree. The agent soon headed off in another direction back towards the building, and Alex sighed as she heard his footsteps getting lighter and lighter until she could no longer hear them.

She gasped as she felt a sharp pain shoot through her stomach.

It's probably nothing, she thought. I'll just wait it out and I'll be fine. She clenched her teeth until the pain went away. But after about a minute, it came back and much stronger this time. She groaned loudly and clenched her fist against the ground, trying to wait out the pain. What's happening, am I losing the baby? Oh god. This is hell. She didn't know which was worse, the pain in her leg or the pain in her stomach. The pain kept on coming in waves, and they were stronger every time, until finally, it just didn't stop at all.

"Ughhhhhh" she moaned, no longer able to restrain herself.

"Alex? What's wrong?" Nikita's voice sounded worried as it came through her comm.

Alex was in too much pain to answer her. The only thing she managed to get out was "arghh!" She was clutching her stomach, unable to move. She heard footsteps approach, praying that it was Sean.

"Well well well...what do we have here?" Alex could hear the smirk in Amanda's voice. She was in so much pain that she could barely keep track of what was going on. All she saw were dark blobs towering over her.

- SMACK -

She saw someone falling to the ground.

"ALEX!"

Her vision blurred, and her world went dark.

...

Alright, let me know how I did. I'm feeling much better today, and might crank out a couple more chapters by the end of today. If you have any ideas you want me to incorporate into the story, let me know by leaving a review or by PMing me. Any sort of feedback is greatly appreciated, so leave a review? c;

Over and out.
