A/N: So I'm trying to get this done before Verkisto. I really, really want to do that, and it's become my one goal in life. Yes, I know how sad my life is, I don't care, haha. Anyway, so I only have one more to go after this! Then, of course, I can start on my Anna S3 AU, which should (hopefully) be fun. Admittedly, I kind of wanted to cover the condom incident that led to the condom incident in Barstow, but I need to move Anna's story along if I want to get to the AU, so I just couldn't fit it in, unfortunately. Hope you enjoy the chapter, the furthering of Anna's Saga, and please review. Thanks!


Wow.

Wow, wow, wow.

Three times! And not just the wows. Apparently leaving the Buy More was a positive move for Morgan's libido. And seeing her man be a man certainly didn't hurt Anna's.

Everything was coming up Wu. Morgan was not only leaving the Buy More (and moving on with his life), but he was leaving Burbank, and taking her with him. They were going to Hawaii, far away from childish antics at a mid-level electronics store, and more importantly, far away spies, lies, and potential danger for Morgan. Anna couldn't be happier.

She was exhausted. Very well sated, but exhausted, and nearing sleep when her phone rang. Damn, she really didn't want to answer it, but Morgan, who was apparently still awake as well didn't give her an option.

"Phone's ringing, babe," he groaned, retrieving it from the nightstand and handing it to her.

"Ugh, I know," Anna answered, burying her face in his chest. "Don't want to talk to anyone. Want sleep. I think you broke me." Never hurt to stroke a man's ego, and she wasn't really exaggerating that much. But Morgan clearly wasn't going to let it die, so she took the ringing phone from his hand.

Anna rolled over, pulling the sheets up around her otherwise naked body as she looked at the caller ID. Unknown. Well, she knew who it was, and she really, really didn't want to talk to them. Things were just working out. Things were starting to go just right, and she didn't want to talk to the NSA anymore. Not when she was set to move to Hawaii with Morgan.

Anna sighed. "I'll be right back, I need to take this," she said, not even attempting to hide the disappointment in her voice.

She answered the call, and told the caller to hold on for a moment while she went private. Anna pulled her robe on, and walked gingerly into the bathroom. Wow, she was sore. Morgan really had done a number on her body. Way to go Morgan!

"This is Anna Wu," she spoke, pulling the door closed behind her.

"Ms. Wu, I'm calling on behalf of the Central Intelligence Agency, and—"

"Wait, the CIA? I've been dealing with the NSA," Anna said, cutting the caller off.

"Yes, we're aware of that, but you're not a commissioned officer in the United States military, so your file has been transferred to us. We'd like to bring you in for some—"

"I'm no longer interested," Anna said. And it kind of hurt to say that. True, it was best for her relationship with Morgan to forget about her recruitment into the covert world, but what about her life? Her goals? Still, she would stand her ground. There would be time for regret later.

"Ms. Wu, please just hear me out. Working for the Central Intelligence Agency is not what most people expect."

"So I wouldn't have to leave my boyfriend? I wouldn't have to uproot my life?" Anna asked.

The caller sighed. "Listen, Ms. Wu. There are a number of sacrifices you would have to make for us, but the work you could do here would be, well, it could help protect innocent people. You wouldn't have been contacted if we didn't think you possessed the skill set necessary to make a difference."

"You still didn't answer my questions. What would I have to give up?"

"No more than you're willing to," the caller said vaguely. "And in return, you'd gain a fulfilling career, a life full of travel and adventure, and the chance to make the world a better place."

Damn. She was being sold, and she knew it, but the seller certainly knew what they were doing. A chance to see the world, experience adventure, and to help the helpless? That was pretty much the dream she'd had for herself since childhood. And she couldn't turn away, as hard as she tried. There was no way for her to say no.

"Okay, I'm listening," Anna said reluctantly. "What would I have to do?"


A/N: And that's all for now. Tune in next time when I will wrap up S2, and Anna's portion of canon (minus the hiccup in S3, but that will be explained away in the AU, I promise). You guys are awesome. Peace.
