I do not own Chuck.

Ok guys so I am really glad you're still reading. I know my grammar isn't perfect but as I explained to one person….i was born in Italy and lived there for some time before coming to the UK and I spent a lot of time in the states…so certain words…or the grammar may appear strange so I'll apologise now. This chapter will focus on Evelyn and Daniel and it's kinda a flashback to when she ambushed the van transporting him to a new jail. So here is the next part, enjoy guys. (BTW I was watching a re-run of Chuck and saw an episode in season 3 where Daniel finds out it was Sarah who shot his wife…and they reference that it was 5yrs ago and this was in season 3. So that would make Lily in my story around 7/8yrs old as oppose to 10 which was the age I roughly guessed, but we will stick with 10yrs old for now, also I want to portray Evelyn and Diana in a different light, they aren't the evil people I made them out to be )

Chapter 15 – Hello Daniel

Evelyn had managed to knock out Casey and Verbanski. The van transporting Daniel had come to a standstill and it soon emerged Evelyn had tampered with the van to release the gas at a certain point. The downside was that Daniel too was knocked out. Evelyn slowly approached the van from one side as Diana approached from the other. Checking through the window to see if the agents were out cold, Diana gave the go ahead to open the van and to take Daniel. Evelyn went round the back and for a moment was frozen solid.

'Evelyn….we have to get him out of here now. We can't waste time' Diana pressed Evelyn to hurry.

Evelyn opened the back door and was hit with the sight of her husband who she had not seen in over 10yrs. He was chained up and locked in a see through cabin in the back of the van. Jumping in, Evelyn searched for the keys to un-cuff him.

'Check the agents for a key.' Evelyn asked Diana.

Diana headed to the front and searched the agent's pockets and any hidden spaces for the key and soon came up trumps.

'I've got it.'

She passed the keys over to Evelyn and she wasted no time in un-cuffing her husband. Diana jumped in to help Evelyn carry his body, which was practically a dead weight. Bit by bit they managed to get him out.

'Go get the car Diana.'

Diana ran off behind the block and came back a few moments later with her car and the two slowly carried his body inside the car. Resting him in the backseat, the two jumped in the front and drove off. A journey that took over 40mins, they soon reached their destination point. Shaw who had still not come round, was lying on the backseat of the car. Diana jumped out and checked her house for any intruders. When the coast was clear she signalled back to Evelyn. She got of the car and stood silent in front of it. Diana watching Evelyn from a distance could see her mask slipping away, prompting her to hurry she shouted over,

'Evelyn, come on. We have to get him inside and we need to pack and get over to England before they find us. Lily is waiting for us.'

Not getting through to her, she pushed Evelyn aside and starting dragging Daniel inside. Eventually Evelyn snap out of her daze and helped Diana carry her husband inside. Putting Daniel on a sofa, Diana searched her house for something to secure Daniel down in a chair. Evelyn who had not seen her husband for so long was still in shock and unable to continue her plan…Diana stepped in. Bringing over rope and some water, she began tying Daniel down to a chair who was still out cold. Getting ready to thrown water over Daniel to bring him round, Evelyn stopped her.

'We can't tie him…I can't. Take it off.'

'Eve….listen I know he is your husband and I know you want him to meet your daughter but we have to make sure he isn't a threat. Remember the ring weren't kind people, they got inside his head and look at everything he has done. The ring got to both of us too and to be honest…I was glad that team from Burbank took them down, at least now the ring won't have the chance to turn good people into people like Daniel. '

'Ok…ok. Give me the water.'

Taking the water from Diana, Evelyn threw it over Daniel to bring him round. Soon he started to stir and he couldn't make out who it was that was standing right in front of him. Evelyn who was directly opposite Daniel waited for him to reign in his sight and Diana stood behind her, ready for anything that could happen. Starting to come round, all Daniel could see was a blurred outline of a woman with dark hair and with each passing second, that blurred outline soon became more focused and before he had time to speak, he saw the woman's eyes and in that moment he knew exactly who it was he was staring at.

'Eve….no, no it's not you. You were shot.'

'Daniel, it is me. It's your wife.'

Wanting to reach out to touch her, something stopped him.

'Get these ropes off me.'

For a second Evelyn wanted to rip those ropes off him and was about to before Diana stepped in.

'No, remember Evelyn we talk about this.'

'Who is she? Daniel asked.

Answering for his wife, Diana said,

'My name is Diana. I was working with the ring, I was assigned to protect your wife when she faked her death.'

Whispering to Diana she told her,

'I got this' before continuing…

'Daniel, that wasn't me that night in Paris. Sarah Walker was ordered to shoot me, but the ring found out and relayed the information back to me. We needed to find someone who looked exactly like me, to step in my shoes. When the CIA believe they killed me I was ordered to go into hiding.'

'But you weren't with the ring, that's why she was ordered to kill you. The CIA thought you had been turned, I don't understand what's going on.'

'Daniel…I was with the ring, I was turned. They wanted you on-board too and that's why they came after you and your team. I tried to stop them, but I couldn't. I didn't want you involved with these people, they are monsters. They promised me they would stop pursuing you and I believed them. Daniel there is something else you need to know….when the hit was ordered, I was pregnant with your child.'

The anger was boiling over in Daniel, not only had Sarah taken away his wife but now his child.

'My child, we have a child?'

'Yes. A girl, she is 10yrs old and her name is Lily. This is why we are here, she wants her dad and for 10yrs I have lied to her. She's at an age where she is beginning to ask questions and whatever bad you have done, you're still her dad and you have every right to know her.'

Before Evelyn could finish, Diana pulled out a tranq gun and shot Daniel. Seeing her husband's head slump, Evelyn looked back at Diana and was ready take her down.

'We have to talk.'

'Why the hell did you just do that?'

'I think we need to re-think our plan. Pretty soon the CIA will find out about the mole and then what? We'll be like sitting ducks, we'll have nothing. We can't follow this through, I say you two go to England and be a family. There is no need to drag them out there and besides we won't have the upper hand…we've just about gotten to this point. They have a whole army behind them and we've got nothing. I have kept my mouth shut all this time but enough Is enough, I'm not putting myself at risk anymore. Get him to England and stay there.'

'And what about Chuck and Sarah? They stole my life…our life Diana. They need to pay and until then, I will not rest. And neither will he. He hates them more than I do, there's no way I could stop him from killing them.'

'You try. We joined the ring and we knew the consequences that came with it. You have your husband back and Lily will have her dad.'

'It's not as easy as that. The CIA…NSA, everyone will be looking for us' Evelyn replied.

'And killing Chuck and Sarah….it will only make things worse. Wherever they are dead or not doesn't matter because you two will still be hunted. Team Bartowski were, dare I say it a great team. They took down Fulcrum, the Ring and Volkoff. There is nothing they can't do.'

'Which is why they need to be killed.'

'No, they don't Evelyn. They aren't like normal spies….they have a conscience. If we can get through to them, tell them about Lily if they don't already know maybe they will allow us all to go. If you kill them, if you go through with this….there is nothing that the CIA or the NSA won't do to kill you both, and me.'

Caught in between two walls, Evelyn was at a crossroads. Following through with her plan could put them in even more danger but living their life knowing that Chuck and Sarah were out there pained her more. She had to do what she set out to do, with or without Diana's help.

'Even if I wanted to cut this short, I couldn't stop Daniel. I've watched him ever since I went away. And he was the guy I fell in love with until he joined them and I watched him turn and become someone I didn't want to love. But I do, and whatever he wants to do, I will stand by him. You can either help or go, it's up to you.'

For so long all these two had were each other and Diana became to see Evelyn as family. There was no way she could walk away now no matter how against this plan she was.

2hrs later and Daniel was now coming round….

Still tied up, Daniel tried to free himself. Diana soon noticed that Daniel was no longer out, but Evelyn had stepped out to pick up some essentials. So it was left to her to deal with him until she came back.

'Diana is it?'

'Yes.'

'And you worked with the ring?'

'Again…yes.'

'Un-tie me please.'

'I can't do that.'

'You can't…ok but don't you realise I could just brake my thumb and wriggle out.'

'Try it and I will shoot you, but this time with real bullets.'

'Do you know my daughter, Lily?'

'Yes I do. She is a beautiful girl, it's a good thing she didn't turn out like her dad.'

'And that is such a bad thing?'

'It is. You have no idea the hurt you caused your wife. She's been watching you all this time and the minute you joined the ring, it was like you broke her. You see being with her all this time, I've come to see her as family and right now all I have left is her and Lily and I won't sit by and watch you turn everyone against them because that's what you will do. Evelyn wants to lure Chuck and Sarah out to England, that's where your daughter is now. And she wants to kill them, but if she does this…..you two will forever be running and soon they will find you and this time…you won't find yourself in jail but a coffin. If you can convince her to change her plan, then you two will have no need to run.'

'After 10yrs me and my wife have something very important in common. We both want Chuck and Sarah dead. And now that I know I have a daughter, you think I will let them have a life after they robbed me of one…I don't think so….you se…'

Evelyn had returned and it stopped Daniel from finishing.

'Evelyn…..please un-tie me.'

Dropping the items she picked up, she instantly ran over to Daniel and un-tied him. 10yrs of built up emotion certainly showed in their faces. Daniel embraced his wife he thought he had lost. All Diana could do was look on before leaving the room and going outside for some air.

'Daniel….we need to get out of here, Lily is in London and she is dying to meet you.'

'You named her Lily? I love that name.'

'I know. We can get out of here un-noticed, but we have to go now.'

'Diana told me of your plan, to kill Sarah and Chuck.'

'We don't have to. I mean…I've found you and we could just be happy, be a normal family.'

'We will never be normal Eve. But there is a way we can leave this all behind, a way that can give us some sense of a normal life.'

'What is it…?' Evelyn asked.

'We kill them and then we run. There is a place that no one will ever find.'

'I don't want to run Daniel. I've been hiding for 10yrs and I just want it all to stop now. Wherever this place is, they will find it.'

'Then we move onto a new place.'

'No we can't keep doing that. Our daughter can't keep moving around, do you have an idea what it would do to her? Of course you don't, you don't know her.'

'I can get to know her. I've been robbed of a life with my daughter and wife. It's all down to them and this time I will end this. Lily is in London, well we go there as planned. Once we take them out, the general can't send any other agents over, remember we're not on American soil, they will only have a limited resources over there.'

Making good on her promise earlier, she would follow Daniel on what he wished to do.

'Ok. But we take Diana as well. We've kept each other safe for over 10yrs, I'm not about to leave her behind.'

'If that's what you want.'

A couple of days later and the Shaw's and Diana were now in England. The 2 clues have already been sent…

Daniel was in the process of getting to know his daughter Lily as Evelyn watched over. This was all she wanted, to have her husband back and for their daughter to have her dad. The more the thought about it the more the wanted out of the plan to kill them. She loved Daniel, but he wasn't the same man, he had changed and not for the better. Diana could see the tell-tale signs that he would never finish at just killing Chuck and Sarah. Before he was put away, he wanted to bring down the entire CIA and she was sure he wanted to follow through with this plan still. Pulling Evelyn aside, she question Daniel's motives.

'Evelyn I'm happy that you have your husband back but I'm concerned for both you and Lily.'

'Why, he's not going to hurt us.'

'Not directly no. But he will never be finished.'

'I don't understand what you're getting at Diana.'

'Once he's taken them out what's to stop him from going after the whole of the CIA?'

'He won't. I won't let him….he knows what risks that could pose for not just him but me and our daughter…he wouldn't do that.'

Looking at Daniel, Diana knew he had other plans but Evelyn just couldn't see it. She was blinded by love. Evelyn walked back over to her husband as Diana watched on. Neither of them had noticed that she had stepped out and drove off.

Back with Chuck, Sarah, Casey and Verbanksi who were not just arriving in England…

Stepping outside of Heathrow airport, neither of the 4 were accustomed to the unpredictable British weather.

'Well I'm glad I packed a few coats….you can never second guess their weather' Chuck said.

The team headed off to a hotel they had to stay at during their mission as this didn't seem a normal mission where they could pack up and head right back, something told the general they would be here a little longer than needed. Just before heading into to check in, Sarah's phone began to ring. Looking at the screen, it was a withheld number.

'Answer it Sarah…this could her' Casey ordered.

Picking up the call, this wasn't Evelyn. It was a voice Sarah didn't not recognise.

'Hello.'

'Is this Sarah Walker?'

'Yes…who is this?'

'My name is Diana.'

Sarah mouthed back to the team to notify them exactly who was on the phone. There was no way they could trace the call as they had no equipment set up, plus the fact they were still standing in the lobby of the hotel.

'You're the agent with Evelyn.'

That's me. I have some information for your team, I could point you to where Evelyn and Daniel are.'

'And how can I trust you, this could be a trap.'

'You have no reason to trust me or I you, but right now I am all you got…and vice versa. Right now Evelyn and Daniel are with their daughter, I'm guessing by now that you know about her.'

'We do, her name is Lily right?'

'Yeh that's her. She is the reason I am calling, she doesn't deserve to be in the middle of this. Whatever happens, I want her to be safe…I don't want her harmed.'

'We would never do that, she is just an innocent child and at all cost's we will make sure she is safe. You have my word.'

'Good. Evelyn doesn't want to harm either you. She did at first…but she wants to get out of this life, Daniel has this hold over her that I just can't shake. He wants you dead and then after he will come for the CIA.'

'One man cannot take down the CIA.'

'That's what I thought, but he wants revenge and he will not stop till he's got it. I don't want Evelyn harmed either, she is not the monster she makes out to be.'

'She tried to kill me. She broke out Daniel.'

'For her daughter, their daughter. I will help you take down Daniel, but I want Evelyn to be free. That's my only wish.'

Ok guys, that the end of the chapter. Please review and next one up soon.
