Part 13
Sydney walked into ops to see her husband standing by his desk. The flight from Northern Ireland was relatively uneventful. Quinn woke during the flight non to happy that he was in CIA custody. But when Weiss told him it was them or a cell of the Pack he shut up. It had been decided that Quinn would not see Sydney again if possible. They wanted the Pack to believe that Julia Thorne was is around. No one trusted Quinn that should he escape that he wouldn't let it spill that Julia Thorne was only an alias of a CIA agent.
"Hey Syd everything went according to plan? Asked Vaughn
"Yeah. We have Quinn. Serena and Steven are going to deliver the evidence that he is dead to Lentz. They copied his files before destroying his hard drive. Marshall and the other techies are digging through them as we speech. Was Isabelle any trouble while I was gone?"
"No. She is with Carrie playing with Mitchell today."
"Good she needs to spend time around other kids."
"Did seeing this guy help you to remember anything?"
"No but apparently he was a drinking buddy of Julia's."
"Why doesn't that surprise me?"
"At this point very little is going to surprise me."
Just then Marshall came running over to them.
"Syd, I got a chance while you were gone I started to look into what you asked me to." Said Marshall
"Did you find out anything?" asked Sydney
"Only that until 25 years ago that there is no record of Alexander Turner. No birth certificate, social security number. No nothing."
"So Alexander Turner is an alias." Said Vaughn
"Yeah. I ran the only photo we have of him through facial recognition. I got a hit. His real name is Alexi Kozlov. But other than the name I got nothing."
"Most likely former KGB. Serena is in the age range that it would fit." Said Sydney
"Serena's mother being with the DOD could have made her a target. Depending on her clearance level at the time." Said Vaughn
"Is there any record of his death?" asked Sydney
"No the only other thing I came across were divorce papers. With the divorce being granted on abandonment." Said Marshall
"Thanks keep looking see if you can get into records on him in Russia. If not we might need to go to Moscow and get the information." Said Sydney
"No problem. I already have something that will hack into the records if you have to go."
"Thanks Marshall."
Agent Victor Kent headed out of ops and out of the building before pulling out a cell phone and made a call.
"What?" came a heavy Russian accented voice.
"Sir they have discovered your alias." Said Kent
"Plant the information for Finklman to find. That Derevko is my cousin. The time is nearing to have Sydney come find her friend and child."
"What do you need me to do now?"
"Just keep me informed moron. Remember if you are discovered you are on your own. If you so much as tell anyone but Sydney Bristow who you are working for you are dead."
"Of course Mr. Kozlov."
Alexi hung up and turned to his sister.
"If we didn't still need that idiot I would tell Sark to kill him." Said Alexi
"Alexi, he is the only one that can keep an eye on Irina's daughter and keep us informed on our children." Said Katrina
"I never wanted this kind of life for Serena. She was such a sweet child."
"You know the second she was sent to that summer camp and exposed to Project Christmas that she was doomed. The same as Steven. It is a good thing that Stacy and Sean didn't do as well on the tests and were rejected from Project Christmas."
"That is a good thing."
"Yes it is. Where is the child?"
"She is with Ms. Calfo. That girl will only learn what kind of person her mother is with Ms. Calfo."
"If it wasn't for the promise to Irina I would just dump that child with a family."
"Alexi, that child is the daughter of our cousin's daughter."
"She shouldn't be in this. But thanks to Elena ordering Sydney's kidnapping the child has never known her parents."
"The time is nearing that they will be reunited. Though it may not be easy to convince Sydney that this child is hers."
"Then we used the formula that Dimera created to restore her memory that she had erased."
"It is untested."
"True but it is written that only the one Rambaldi wrote of will be able to use the formula."
"You better be right about it. Or not only will Irina come back from the grave but so will Jack Bristow."
"That man when it came to his daughter was scary alive. I would not want to see him raised from the dead."
Sydney and Vaughn walked into their house with Isabelle. Vaughn went to start dinner while Sydney and Isabelle curled up on the couch to read.
"Mommy?"
"Yes honey?"
"Am I ever going to have any brothers or sisters?"
"Anything is possible. Isabelle why do you ask?"
"Mitch has a little brother and another brother or sister on the way."
"Isabelle, honey. I hope that you will have a brother or sister some day. But it might not happen."
"How come?"
"It just might not."
"Maybe I should tell daddy to put one in your tummy. Mitch said that is where his new brother or sister is. That his daddy put them there until they are bigger."
"Honey I think daddy and I want to wait a little longer until you can help us more to give you a brother or sister."
"Mitch was my age when Frank was born. He is only two years older than me."
"I know. But daddy and I want to wait a bit more ok?"
"Ok."
"Dinner will be ready in five minute. Go get cleaned up Izzy." Said Vaughn
Isabelle ran off and Sydney headed into the kitchen.
"So did you hear any of that?" asked Sydney
"Yes our daughter wants a baby brother or sister."
"Do you want more kids? I mean we never talked about it."
"I wouldn't mind a couple more. I mean we both grew up as only children. I mean yeah you found out later you had a half sister."
"True. But thanks to Sloane I never truly got to know Nadia."
"I know but you were lucky to have her for even a little while."
"Vaughn what would you have done if you had, had a child with Lauren?"
"I don't know. I would have raised the child to the best of my ability hopefully with your help."
"Well while I hated Lauren. But I don't think that I could hate a child based on who their mother was."
"That is why I love you. Syd, you have such a big heart."
Vaughn leaned down to kiss her just as Isabelle came into the room. They then sat down to eat dinner.
