love, or something like it

I can't wait for more either!!!

*runs out of the room like a drunken tarantula* (did I spell that right? If not, I mean the hairy venemous spider...)
 
okay, so gripe fest is over, and i'm feeling better. It's late, I have no homework at the moment, so prepare yourselves for a splendiferous chapter.

by the way... drunken tarantula? :blink: :lol:

Vaughn rested his head in his hands, trying to make the diziness go away. He needed to stop the bleeding from his leg, and fast. Just as his head was beginning to clear, his phone beeped. He strained his ears to hear where it was coming from. With a wince and a grunt he reached under the passenger seat. Weiss!

"Eric?!" Vaughn exclaimed into the phone, nearly dropping it.

"Hey buddy, what's shakin?" Weiss replied, nonchalantly.

"Well, Sydney's been captured by Sark, who by the way, most likely is now in the posession of the Rambaldi artifact, I broke into a rich guy's villa and hot-wired his Ferrari, simultaneously crashed it, and I am now sitting in a ditch, picking glass out of my leg, worried to death about Sydney," Vaughn gasped.

"Wow. So you're telling me... you stole a Ferrari? Sweet!" answered Weiss.

"Did you not listen to a word I said?" Vaughn asked peevishly, upset that Weiss didn't understand the real danger Sydney was in.

"Actually...no. My attention was caught for a moment when you said 'hot-wired a Ferrari' but before and after's just blank."

"Eric, you don't understand..."

"Yes, I understand perfectly well. You slept with Sydney last night, blahdee blahdee blah, you hot-wired a Ferrari, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera."
 
my fic was on page 7!! so, I had to do something about it...

"ERIC!" Vaughn yelled into his phone, "I DON'T have time for this. Sydney's in danger."

"All right," Weiss sighed, "But just answer me one question..." Vaughn moaned. "Now, come on, hear me out buddy," Weiss reasoned.

"Fine," Vaughn grumbled.

"Did you and Sydney....you know....last night?" Weiss asked tentatively.

"If I told you no would you believe me?"

"No."

"If I told you yes would you get the hell over here?"

"Yup."

"Fine, I slept with Sydney. Now will you get off your lazy-"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way," Weiss stated. "I'll be there soon."

Vaughn snapped his phone shut and closed his eyes, resting his head against the seat. He figured it wouldn't take Weiss very long to get to the villa, since he and Kendall were still at the CIA safehouse. He had to get himself out of this car. He unbuckled his seatbelt, and tried to open the door. It was jammed. Vaughn swore under his breath. He shimmied over to the passenger side and the door swung open. He gingerly stepped out, careful not to apply to much pressure to his leg. He ripped off a piece of his undershirt and wrapped it around the wound. That would have to do for now.

Sydney sighed in frustration. Where was Vaughn? She knew he heard her say where she was, and he had always been the type of guy to show up two seconds later. Sydney looked up at the clock and realized that it had been an hour and a half. "Vaughn," she mumbled frustratedly. Just then, Sark walked in. In tow was another henchman, dripping in black. Sydney groaned. He smiled saying, "Ms. Bristow. I'm sure you know the penalty for divulging information." He smiled again, pulling a long needle full of a clear solution from his bag, "This will keep you quiet I'm sure." The other man lunged at her, holding her down. Sydney kneed him in the groin, and sent him crashing to the floor. "Two for three," she smiled sweetly.

The smile on Sark's face immediately dropped. "This can either be a clean injection," he warned, "or a messy one." He pulled yet another needle from his bag, this time, a blue solution was sloshing around inside. He held it up to the light, tapped it, and headed for her. He stopped just short of her reach. He turned back, grabbed two sets of handcuffs out of his bag, and cuffed her legs to the bed. "So many descisions," he laughed. "Clear or blue...clear or blue...." he taunted. It seemed the other guy had finally composed himself. He lunged for her again, holding down her knees. "One descision left Sydney," he laughed walking toward her. He held out one solitary finger. "In the neck," he trailed his finger lightly on her skin, making her recoil, "in the stomach," he added, moving his finger down her chest, "or..."

"IN THE ASS bi**!" cried the other guy, obviously still angry about the groin.

"Yes, thank you for putting it so eloquently," Sark replied coolly, letting his index linger for a moment on her stomach, and then removed it.

"I'd rather die than have you touch me like that you sick son-of-a--" Sydney retorted.

"Very well then," Sark interrupted, all emotion from his voice gone. He stepped over to his bag, and extracted yet another needle. This, contained a red solution. "Red, of course, usually means stop," he said, moving once again toward her. "But, in this case...it means go. Once injected, this toxin makes your blood move so fast, that your heart won't be able to redirect it, and will explode in your chest." He leaned close to her and whispered, "So. The descision remains. Clear, blue, or red?"

Vaughn burst into the front door of the villa. He had finally made it. Surprisingly enough, the place wasn't very heavily guarded. Only two guards out front, who were presently taken care of. Vaughn hadn't seen Weiss anywhere. Where the hell was he? He stood poised in the doorway, gun drawn. He glanced around...then heard Sydney upstairs... "I'd rather die than have you touch me like that you sick son-of-a--" he heard her say. What the hell was Sark doing to her?

Vaughn bounded up the stairs. He kicked open the door, just in time to see Sark plunge a needle full of red liquid into Sydney's neck. Sydney screamed, and Vaughn cringed. He was about to shoot Sark right in the heart when a man holding Sydney down yelled for him to look out. Sark spun around, drawing a gun from his side. Vaughn was too quick, he shot him in the stomach. Sark fell to the floor. The other man lunged at him, and Vaughn hit him with the butt of his gun. He crumpled, unconcious, into a heap on the floor.

"Sydney!" Vaughn cried, bending down toward her face. "Are you okay?"

"Vaughn?" Sydney managed. Her eyes were wild, and her veins were popping out of her arms.

"Hold on Sydney, just hold on..." Vaughn whispered, looking around. He noticed Sark's bag on the floor. He rushed to it, rumaging through it. A vial caught his attention, and he pulled it out so hurriedly that he almost dropped it. He pulled a needle from the bag, filled it with the vial's contents, and, apologizing to Sydney, flipped her over and thrusted the needle into her butt.

Sydney jerked, and instantly relaxed. Her veins slowly receeded, and her eyes seemed to focus on Vaughn again. He asked anxiously, "Syd?"

"Vaughn..." she whispered, "you just saw my butt. This relationship is moving way too fast for me."

"Sorry," he laughed, "but hey, you're back." Vaughn pulled a pin from his pocket, and picked the lock on the cuffs. As soon as Sydney was unbound, she pulled him close to her. She hugged him fervently. He kissed her on the forehead, once again enveloping her entoxicating smell.

She looked into his eyes...his beautiful eyes. This was the man she was meant to be with, for the rest of her life. This was the man, the only man, that she needed to hug, to kiss, to love. She just knew it. The way he looked at her told her he felt the same way. When she forgot all her insecurities, she knew he loved her. She desperately needed to tell him, but her uncertainty always seemed to get the best of her.

But as if to answer her prayers, Vaughn leaned close to her. She willed him closer to her, but he stopped. "Sydney, I have to tell you something," he murmured, timidly turning his eyes away from her. She felt a euphoric sensation tingle through her body, until Vaughn's face changed, he seemed horrified. "Vaughn....what's wrong?" she asked, nervousness filling her head, making her dizzy. He seemed dazed, and reached for his gun. He turned to her, fear in his eyes....

"Where's Sark?" he asked.
 
I thought it only appropriate to make my 100th post here, in my fanfic. Hopefully posting in the Fan Fic Summaries will bring in some new readers...lol! I think it's been so long since I've posted that people have forgotten about me... but not to worry, I'm back!

so expect many a chapter (including the one posted above)... I'm on spring break! (woo-hoo) :lol:

another new chapter! yay!


Vaughn jumped from the bed, and scanned the room. Sark was nowhere to be seen. Footsteps clattered loudly on the stairs, and Vaughn lunged for the door, Sydney in tow. Vaughn was met by gunfire, and he stumbled backwards, running into Sydney. He collapsed on top of her, landing on the floor with a loud thump. He flipped over, glancing nervously at her closed eyelids. "Sydney? Are you okay?"

Her eyes fluttered. She opened them and smiled. "Yeah, I'm okay," she stated. He leaned over her and, gathering her in his arms, helped her to her feet. He absentmindedly grabbed her hand, pulling her close to protect her.

"Hey, Mike! Is that you?!" came Weiss' voice from somewhere downstairs.

"Yeah, was that you shooting? Jesus, you almost killed us!" Vaughn yelled angrily. He took the stairs three at a time, clutching Sydney's hand behind him. She struggled to follow his insane pace, she still didn't have all her strength back. At the foot of the stairs, Weiss was waiting. "Sorry about that, thought you were one of them," he apologized.

"At least we can count on your horrible aim," Vaughn retorted, "Did you see Sark?"

Weiss took this opportunity to look very pleased with himself, stating, "Yeah, shot his British-ass," he replied casually.

"What? Are you sure?" Sydney asked, incredulous.

"Yeah, he's right there," Weiss motioned, suredly enough, to Sark, sprawled on the floor, in a pool of blood. Sydney cringed. Vaughn squeezed her hand, causing her to blush. "Shouldn't we...check his pulse?" Sydney asked tentatively.

Vaughn unwillingly released Sydney's hand, carefully stepping over to Sark's motionless body. He thought idly of all those scary movies, when the bad guy pops back up, for one more scare. He approached catiously, checking Sark's chest to see if it was moving. After about thirty seconds, he squatted down next to Sark and pressed his fingers to Sark's neck. He looked up, first at Weiss, then at Sydney.

"He's dead."
