Sorry that this chapter is really short.
Love is One Big Lie~ Chapter 6
Sydney slowly started to regain conciseness. Her vision was blurred, but after a minute, everything looked normal, except for one thing; everything she saw was green. She thought she was going crazy, when she realized that she was in a giant machine of green liquid.
She looked around; she could see she was in some sort of lab, or medical room. Nobody was there, and she wondered what she was doing in this machine.
“Oh yeah! I was shot in the back of the head with a tranquilizer dart!” she thought, rubbing the spot where the dart had struck.
“Mom!” she remembered.
She ripped off all of the cords that were attached to her ,and slowly pushed the door open.
“Ewww!” she said, dripping with the green liquid.
She looked around, and noticed another.
“Hey! She must have been captured too…” she thought, looking at Nadia’s unconscious body, in the machine next to her.
“Well, I should give her a hand…” Sydney muttered.
She pressed a button, and the machine doors slowly opened, but the girl wasn’t getting up.
Sydney ran over to inspect her.
“Hmm… looks like she was just brought here not too long ago. She’s still unconscious…” she said.
“Well… in that case…”
Sydney lifted the girl up and through her over her back.
“Now, let’s find a way out of here…” she said.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sydney slowly made her way down the hallway. It seemed she was in some sort of Covenant command center. Cautiously turning a corner, she saw a guard talking to another guard. They muttered something in Russian to each other.
“So, do you think the women are really the messengers of Rambaldi?” one asked.
“I guess. I have all the reason to believe it” the other replied.
Just as Sydney turned the other way, she heard another guard shout.
“The women are gone! Sound the alarm!” he shouted.
Not even a second later, a high-pitched alarm was humming through the entire building.
“I have a feeling that they’re talking about us” she said to the girl, who was still unconscious.
She began o run down another hall, coming to a fork-in-the-road. One path, she could hear the sound of angry men, the other, she could hear something… different. Something which she had never heard before, yet sounded somewhat familiar.
Seeing there was no place left to go, she made her way down the hall with the strange, but soothing sound.
She was spotted by a group of guards, who came storming after her shouting “I found them! I found them!”
With the woman on her back, Sydney could feel herself getting slower. She reached the door where the sound was coming from, and it automatically opened. She threw the girl in first, and then she darted in, waiting for the doors to shut as the guards came closer.
When the door finally shut, she located the controls. She quickly glanced at the buttons, and noticed a big red one that said “DOOR”. She smashed the control with her fist, causing it to bleed and send an electrical serge through her.
She grunted in pain, but was interrupted by the sound of men pounding at the door.
“They’ll eventually break through. We have to move quickly” she said to the girl, who was still out cold.

“So, where do we check next?” Jack asked Irina.
“I have about 1000 ideas of where they might be…” she replied.
“You said they wanted to fulfill the prophecy, right? Well, let’s see… Rambaldi…” Vaughn said.
“I’ve got it! Italy!” Irina shouted.
“Italy?” Vaughn asked.
“In a manuscript, it said that the prophecy would be fulfilled in Rambaldi’s home land. Italy was Rambaldi’s home land” Irina explained.
“So, Italy. But where in Italy?” Jack asked.
“I’m not sure. The manuscript wasn’t specific…” Irina replied.
“I have an idea” Jack said, as he pulled out his cell phone.
“Marshall?” Jack asked.
“Uh, yeah? Mr. Bristow sir?” Marshall asked.
“I need you to check all of Italy and see if the Covenant has a base there, or anything to do with them” Jack asked.
“One sec Mr. Bristow” Marshall said, as he began typing away on his computer.
“Uh, they have one base Catanzaro, another in Parma, and the last one is in Teramo” Marshall replied.
“Can you tell me which one Sydney is in?” Jack asked.
“Well, I’ll see. Hold on” Marshall replied, as he once again began typing away at his computer.
“It says that she should be in Parma” Marshall said.
“Are you sure?” Jack asked.
“Well, I just ran a test, and it’s only 74% accurate, but Parma would be the better bet because they have a better security system” Marshall replied.
“Thank-you” Jack replied, as he turned off his cell phone.
“Marshall said that she should be in Parma” Jack said.
“Well then, let’s turn this plane around and go to Parma” Irina replied.

Sydney continued to carry the girl down the hall. She could still hear the guards smashing against the door. She was approaching the soothing sound.
“It’s behind that door…” she mumbled.
The door had a giant “47” on it.
Sydney gasped.
“This is the room where I saw Will! In my dream!” she shouted.
She remembered when she was trying to regain her memories, and she saw the Covenant carry her into that room. When she walked in, she saw Will.
She took a deep breath.
“I hope you don’t mind if I go in here” she said to Nadia.
She pressed a button, and a door slowly opened. This time, she didn’t see Will, but something else that was just as shocking.
“Oh my god…”
