Captured for Interrogation

Nikolai began wiring the place. Then, he left and rigged the car to explode when someone opened the door. He came back, resolving to rig the detonator to the bunker as they left. He didn't hear any gunshots when he returned, so he went downstairs with Alexis' suitcase to see what she would wear out on the mission.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis set Nikolai's Kalashnikov down and began throwing her knife, making sure that her accuracy was on the mark.

She didn't hear Nikolai come in and she continued.

 

[bindingeagle]

"Nikolai, thinking it would be a good idea not to surprise a well-armed Alexis, yelled down, "I'm Back!"

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis heard Nikolai shout that he was back and replied. "Alright!"

She threw her knife again.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai took a few minutes to sit and calm his nerves. This would be the first of many big changes and he needed to calm down and focus.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis continued practicing her knife skills before seeing her suitcase. Setting it down, she sauntered over and chose a black sweater and black jeans. Flicking her hair after she dressed, she smiled at Nikolai, sitting down next to him. "Trying to focus?" she asked, rubbing his back.

 

[bindingeagle]

"Pretty much, dear. It's a little difficult but we'll pull through."

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis's heart trilled at him calling her 'dear'. The butterflies were forming and she swore at herself mentally. "That's right honey. It'll all work out."

Still rubbing his back, she pecked his cheek. "Wanna spar?"

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai stood and readied himself. "Ready when you are."

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis grinned and readied herself, carefully assessing the situation.

Finally she feinted a punch and dove for his legs.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai stuffed her shot for his legs and moved to take her back. "I love that you want to be underneath me but I thought we were sparring."

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis ignored the banter and aimed a snap kick at his groin, recovering quickly.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai grunted at the impact, but managed to punch her in the tit as he went down to a knee.

 

[celestialdragon]

Wincing at the impact on her tit, Alexis gave him a roundhouse to the head, spinning out of the way afterwards.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai tok the shot right to the temple and crumpled to the floor, passing out. When he came to, he groaned, "Not one of our smartest ideas. How long was I out?"

 

[celestialdragon]

"About an hour," Alexis said sheepishly. She massaged his temples for him. "Sorry, baby."

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai tried to get up off the floor but felt his head swim half way up. "I think i'm concussed. What do we do now?"

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis forced him back down. "I'll get some ice."

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai stayed where he was put, but rolled over on his side just in case he threw up. "I guess you're driving, then."

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis came back with ice and put it on his temple. She kissed his cheek. "We'll see in the morning."

She nestled beside him.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai rested hid head in her lap. He handed her the trigger to wire to the base. "Who said I got to have all the fun with explosives?"

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis chuckled. "I'm not leaving yet, sweetie. Not until I know for sure that you're okay. That was a pretty solid kick."

 

[bindingeagle]

"Well thank you for your concern but I think you may have to throw me in the trunk."

 

[celestialdragon]

"Perhaps" Alexis said, gently stroking his hair. "I'm sorry, that was a cheap shot."

 

[bindingeagle]

"That;s ok, we aren't used to playing light."
