Captured for Interrogation

Nikolai made the arrangements and loaded the car. "Ready when you are," he said.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis packed up her things and jumped into the driver's seat. "Let's go take down a bitch," she said.

 

[bindingeagle]

"She will beg for death," he promised her as he began to drive.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis continued to go over the information on the ride to the airport.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai loaded the plane and escorted Alexis on. Soon they were in the air and headed for Reno.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis kept working, not wanting to rest until Paige was caught.

 

[bindingeagle]

The plane touched down and Nikolai loaded the Land Rover they were issued. "How are we going to get the room without her finding out it's us?" he asked.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis held up a couple of face masks, looking like different people. "Low tech, but sometimes, low tech is the best. I also made the room under a fictional name," she said.

 

[bindingeagle]

"Whatever works," he said, slipping the mask on.

 

[celestialdragon]

She slipped her mask on and checked them into the hotel. Once in their room, she removed her mask after checking it for bugs. "Alright, let me get set up here," she said.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai did his part, setting up with her, then checking over his guns.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis set everything up and began going over her information again, updating Nikolai as she went.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikola snuck out, and, after making sure no one was looking, bugged Paige's hallway.

 

[celestialdragon]

Alexis was looking out the window when Nikolai returned, her eyes slightly glazed over from staring at computer screens and printouts.

"Rest a bit, you've been at this for two days straight," he said, hibernating her computer.

 

[celestialdragon]

"I can't rest Nicky, I won't be able to until I get her back to Jason," she said, rubbing her eyes. "I want her off the streets and back where I know she can be controlled."

 

[bindingeagle]

"You aren't good unrested," he said. "Now let's eat."

 

[celestialdragon]

"I'm not hungry," she mumbled.

 

[bindingeagle]

"Well you're going to anyway," he said. "You barely ate on the plane."

 

[celestialdragon]

"Kay," she mumbled.

 

[bindingeagle]

He made her a sandwich and some chips. "That should do for you," he said, plating a pickle for her and giving her the plate.

 

[celestialdragon]

She nibbled on the food, not really eating. Her stomach was churning from everything she had left to do.

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai sat watching the video feed. Eventually, he said, "That's our girl." She was returning with groceries. "I'm going to watch and see if she develops a pattern." He noted what car she was using.

 

[celestialdragon]

"She will. She likes to think of herself as a professional, but the only reason she went into this business is to sell me to al Salehi's soldiers. She's good, but not THAT good."

 

[bindingeagle]

Nikolai kept watching and finally left to bug her vehicle. He thought he saw her for a minute, but didn't think he was seen on the way back to the hotel room.
