"Who was the guy?" Austin asked after awhile.
Mia raised an eyebrow. "What guy?"
"The guy Kali had the 'relationship' with."
"Oh," Mia said. She really didn't know how to talk about Sark without 'talking about Sark'. "Well, they were dating awhile ago and it didn't really work out. And then a few, I don't know, weeks ago, they went out once, and now they're kind of, well...I guess 'into' each other, but their not dating. I think he's a pretty bad guy, but whatever."
Austin looked down, then up again. "What's this guys name?"
"Um," Mia said. "Julian."
"Julian?" Austin asked. "What kind of a name is that?"
"Uh, not really sure where it originates, but I don't think it's American."
"Yeah, I can tell," Austin said. He put his hand up to rest his chin in it. They sat there awhile longer and then Mia asked if he wanted a ride home.
He said, "No, I can walk. I'm just down the street."
"You're sure?"
"Yeah. I'll talk to you later, Mia."
"Okay," she said smiling, trying to brighten things a bit, but it didn't help. He walked out of the bar with a gloomy look.
"Wow, he's really down about this," Mia said to herself, under her breath.

Kali drove back to her house, parked her car in her driveway and walked into her house. She changed out of her clothes and turned off her lamp before going to bed.

After arriving at home, Carly put the twins to bed and changed into her bedclothes, before walking into the living room and sitting next to her husband. He handed her a cold bottle of soda. She took the bottle opener and popped the cap off before sipping the drink. She leaned against her husband as they watched the show that was currently on.

Mia headed home after awhile and when she got into her apartment she crashed on the sofa. She landed on the remote and it turned on the TV. It was blasting so she got up quickly and ran over to the TV to turn down the sound, then realized what was on. It was on the news and a helicopter had just crashed in the Middle-east. It had crashed in a town and 11 people, 8 being civilians, died. Mia couldn't get the pictures out of her head when she turned off the TV and got into bed.

Kali opened her eyes the moment she had shut them to her phone ringing. She lazily grabbed her phone and answered it. It was APO; they were being called in for an immediate debriefing. Kali sighed and hung up her phone before hurriedly getting dressed and going to the office.

Mia clasped her beeper in her hand after grabbing it off the desk. She looked at it with half shut eyes. It said 'Sloane, 911.'
"I knew it was too good to be true," Mia said softly. "Having a whole day off from work."
She got up and went over to the kitched counter. Looking at the clock on the microwave, she sighed loudly and went to go get dressed and ready to go out in public, even though there wasn't anybody in 'public' at 3 AM.

Sydney woke up to something and immediately hit her alarm. She rolled over and closed her eyes again. It didn't stop. She opened a bleary eye and looked at her alarm. It read 3 o'clock AM.
"What the-" she said and then looked at her phone next to her alarm. It was glowing and going crazy. She opened it up to see a msg, for an emergency breifing. She sighed, hauling herself out of bed and getting dressed. After that she went to the kitchen and poured a huge mug of coffee she set off for APO still half asleep.

Carly jerked up in bed after hearing her beeper. She looked at it and groaned. Sloane needed the feild agents to come to APO for an emergency breifing at--she looked at the clock--3 in the morning. She sighed before pulling off the blanket and changed into her work clothes before going out into the kitchen. She took a peice of paper and wrote, "At APO, for an emergency meeting. Don't know when I'll be back. Drop kids off at Flinkman's after you wake uo." She poured coffee into her thermos before going outside and taking her convertable, she drove off to APO.

_________________

When all the agents arrived at APO, they all immediately rushed into the debriefing room without even being told to.
"I'm sure most of you have seen the news?" Sloane said.
"Yeah, it was a helicopter crash." Mia said.
"Exactly, but this was no ordinary helicopter crash. SG did this to create a diversion; they did this to steal something. What that is, we don't know as of yet. Which is why we have to find out." Sloane paused.
"The SG is currently leaving Iran, with whatever they stole. We need to follow them, try to steal it back, and if we can't steal it back we have to place a tracker on one of their vehicles to find out where they're going." Sloane said, before leaving the debriefing room. The agents were about to stand up, before Jack gestured for them to stay seated. Jack passed files around to each of the field agents. When Kali opened the file, it was a picture of her and Sark first entering the DSR facility, their faces were of course covered though.
"These two agents, who we believe are working for The Mercenaries, were able to break into DSR's facility and steal the part that we had obtained. We only have those few images of them, before they shut off the security cameras." Jack said, waiting to hear any opinions the other agents might have.

Carly looked at the photo and said, 'The Mercenaries probably sent Sark, and the other agent, but we can't tell because of the masks.." She rubbed her eyes before looking at it again.

_________________

"The other agent is most likely Kiminu." Sydney said.
"That's what we were thinking." Jack said, before he looked at Kali.
"Something you want to tell us, Kali?" Jack asked. Kali looked up, she knew they couldn't possibly know it was her...or could they?
"What do you mean?" Kali asked.
"Well, even though their faces are covered, can you tell if one of them is Sark?" Jack asked. Kali sighed before looking at the picture.
"Yeah. That's Sark." She said.
"You're sure?" Jack asked.
"I don't know. It might not be, but I'm pretty sure." She said.
"Good." Jack said. Kali was relieved, she knew they couldn't have known it was her.

Iran: The Trail of SG
"The thing they stole is probably in the back of that convoy." Sydney said.
"I know." Mia and Carly said. Kali pulled up right beside the convoy, and glanced at Carly.
"One of you has to get in that truck, and see if it's in there, quick." Kali said.

_________________

Carly said, "I'll do it." She opened the car door and stood up before jumping.

She landed on the small "platiform" (no clue what they're called) and balanced herself before sidestepping toward the back. She peered in, and sighed as she saw three SG agents. She grabbed the wall as one of the men saw her and jumped. The wall helped her to swing her feet into the agent, and she let go, dropping to the floor. The man she had kicked was unconsious since the blow of her kick had sent him to the ground. The other two agents stood up and she took a fighting stance.

Both agents attacked her, but she managed to kick one in the stomach, and dodge the other agent's attack. She punched the second agent's chest and kicked the other's head before they fell to the ground.. She knocked one out before the other grabbed her ankle and pullled her off balance. She grunted as she landed, and muttered, "That's going to bruise." She stood up and kicked the last agent in the head, knocking him out. She then cautiossly looked around, but didn't find the thing SG had stolen. She got out of the truck and made her way back to where she had jumped onto. The car came close,and Mia opened the door for Carly.

Carly posistioned herself and jumped back into the car, though she did land on her stomach. She turned and sat up before closing the door and saying, "The thing wasn't in there.."

_________________

"It's probably in the lead car. But they're getting away; we need to plant the tracker. We might not be able to get the 'thing' on this mission.." Mia said.
"You're right." Kali said, turning to Sydney who was in the passenger seat.
"Take the wheel." Kali said, opening the driver door. She jumped onto the hood of their car, and Sydney shut the door whenever she got in the driver's seat. Kali stood on top of the hood of the car, avoiding bullets from the SG who now knew they were there. Kali lunged onto the convoy beside them, and grabbed the top of the car with her hands. She then moved each of her hands quickly, making her way to the back of the car. Once there she released her hands from the top of the car and dropped into the back of the truck. It was the back truck, so Carly had already taken care of the guards. The driver noticed Kali and started shooting at her, before Kali threw a knife at him. He dropped his gun and fell back into the chair, dead. Kali shoved him aside from the driver seat, and drove the truck up next to the lead truck.

_________________

Sydney made sure she was in distance of the truck, so if Kali got in trouble, then she could jump back into the car.

_________________

The SG shot out the window of the truck Kali was in, and she ducked down before opening the door and jumping out of the truck onto the lead truck. She put the tracker on the truck, as the SG continued to shoot at her. One of them kicked her, and she began to fall back, to be caught by Sydney who was driving the car. The SG agent jumped onto the hood of the car with Kali and kicked at her. Kali ducked his kick, and threw him off of the car before Mia opened the passenger door for her, and let her in. Kali sighed and sat down when inside, as Sydney pulled away from the SG convoys.
"Did you place the tracker on the convoy?" Mia asked.
"Yes." Kali said.

"Good, now hold on." Sydney said as she placed her foot harder on the pedal. She turned the wheel quickly and drove off.
