*Xen dives seconds after she pulls the trigger on Joyce, and gets a nice chunk of her right shoulder taken out. Holding her hand over her wound, she sees that Joyce is temporarily stunned by her gunshot, to her gun holding hand.*

J: You shot me.

X: I didn't want to, but I warned you....

*Joyce is going for her gun to be fired from her other hand*

X: Come on Joyce don't make me shoot you again.

*Joyce is on the floor, pointing up at Xenobia. Xenobia makes a mad dash behind the corner of the door as the second shot rings out.*

X: AGENT DOWN! I need help!

[Xenobia]

*Xenobia sees Matt running toward her*

X: GET BACK! I mean it Matt. You are the last person who should be here!

M: Where's Joyce?

X: Not in her right mind, that's for damn sure, now GET BACK!

-- Xenobia

[Matt O'S oo4]

004 runs almost head on into 002.

What the hell is going on....in the SHOWERS no less??

Is 009 with you, come on shake if off.

004

[Joyce Carrington]

Blood is running down 009's right arm and a sudden daze comes over her.
She seems to be blacking out, dropping the gun out of her left hand.

*opens her eyes*

009: Where am I?

No.

Not today.

NO!

004 walks directly into the showers and see 009 shifting her 00 into her left hand.

Joyce, my love....what are you doing? Its not lunch time yet, you know.

004 begins to walk toward her as a moderate pace.

You're hurt. May I help you up?

004

[Joyce Carrington]

*009 looks at her hand in disgust and is shocked to see Xen with a bleeding shoulder*

What happened?

[Xenobia]

X: Matt, she's in her office, and she wasn't on planet earth two minutes ago. She was gunning for you.

M: You're wrong.

X: If I am wrong, why is all of 009's equipment in Q branch?

*Matt scowls*

M: Go get Warmflash and some stronger attendants. I'll deal with Joyce.

M: You kill her, I'll kill you.

X: If I have a choice, I won't.

[Matt O'S oo4]

I think its time we found out.

Put on this robe. Tosses it to her

Places a makeshift bandage on both 009 and 002. That will need much more attention, I'm afraid, but for the moment....

We going to have to give you a complete look over....I believe we can have the med department get some blood and endocrine samples form Joyce and we'll probably have to run a complete cat scan and MRI work up.

If this can happen to you.....

004 looks at 002.

It can happen to any of us...

[Joyce Carrington]

*dropping to her knees*

009: My head hurts. What happened?

*Xen, clenching her teeth and holding her hand over her shoulder in an attempt to stop the bleeding*

X: You really don't remember?

*pulls her gun*

X: Are you sure?

[Matt O'S oo4]

Looks at 002....that's good...you've got the drop on a woman on her knees in the shower.

004 picks her up and carries her to the medical bay.

Get her gun 002. don't worry. I've already taken the clip out of it.

He walks out.

004

[Xenobia]

*Grabs her gun*

X: If you don't mind...I am following you both. Like you said, it could happen to any of us.

004 stops and turns slowly.

Then you wont mind leading the way.

It would be very difficult to shoot you with a beautiful woman in my arms....

After you....

004

[Joyce Carrington]

*as they move to Dr. Warmflash's office*

009: Matt? Did I do that?

004: Technically, yes.

*009 is quiet for a moment*

009: What is heppening to me?

[Matt O'S oo4]

Wish I knew. But one things for damn sure. We're going to find out.

004 kisses her for what seems several moments.

He looks at her for a moment. Then up at Dr. W.

A word Doctor?

They step aside.

There seems to be some intersting speculation regarding a traitor here at MI6. I know its not me. I don't know about you. Find out what's happening to her....for all our sakes. I will be watching you....I will be watching everything...trust me...if you are guilty....I WILL know.

Take care of her Dr. W.

I will be back.

004

[Joyce Carrington]

009: Wait.

*004 turns around at the door*

009: Matt. Don't come back for me. At least not now. If I'm a danger to you... you should stay away from me for a while.

[Xenobia]

*Xenobia eyes Molly*

X: So you got the big speech from him too?

W: He has a right to be concerned.

X: We all do. I'll leave you to your work. I am going to go see to mine.

*Xenobia catches up with Matt*

X: Alright 004, enough games. Where the Hell is 003?

Not very damned likely.

Looks at each individual in the room one at a time.

Matt smiles and leaves.

Time to use that license I've been given.

It's been a few hours....

004

[Xenobia]

X: Not before you tell me where 003 is.

He's on his way in....we should be seeing him report in about three to four hours.

Trust me.
Trust him.

Now if you will excuse me, I have a blade to sharpen....

004 leaves her standing.

We're going to get bloody on this one John....I need you here. Its no fun not sharing...

004

[Joyce Carrington]

*009 watches as 004 and Xen leave*

*turns to Molly*

009: I'm all yours.

*Molly frowns*

009: Molly, NO. That was not what I meant.

*009 rolls her eyes* GEEZ.

Molly: That was NOT was I was thinking. Follow me.

*009 follows her into Molly's office*

009: If I start doing things... trying to kill you... what will you do?

Molly: There's a loaded gun in my pocket. I will not hesitate to use it.

009: Ah. Good.

[Xenobia]

*Walks in front of Matt*

X: Let's go for a walk.

*Leads 004 into her office*

X: The bottom line is, you and Bryce must be *damn good* agents if you can be such ******* ups and still get the job done right. My job, on orders from M is to keep particular eye on you and Bryce, because after 007, you two are the stars of the division. If anything happens to either one of you, my a** is on the line.

*Long pause as Matt gives her a look over*

X: I know you couldn't possibly go this long without talking to your Scotchese Twin. What has he told you so far.

-- Xenobia

[Joyce Carrington]

*being examined*

M: I'm going to shine this light in your eye, allright?

Voice: Joyce...

J: Did you hear that?

M: What?

J: Nothing.

*molly continues*

J: Molly, can I ask you something?

M: Of course.

J: Is it just me, or...

*knocks Molly out*

J:... are you really THAT stupid?

*smiles*

J: Time I hid for a while.

*dissappears*

Looks at her so serious that Xen jaw drops open slightly.

004 displays a grim smile that makes her shudder.

Good? My dear Ms. 002. We not good. Oh, no. Not at all.

You don't kill a thousand men, you don't topple a dozen regiems, you don't save millions and be considered good. Oh, my, no. You don't even think about it...you just DO it....because your ORDERED to do it.

You think for one second I fear your words, your weapons, your petty notions of a threat. Do you think I care on jot what you or anyone could ever THINK.

PLEASE.

I do not fear the idea of dying. I embrace it.

In my experience, I've watched ten thousand fall.

And, suddenly, for one, short, fleeting moment....I FEEL something for someone else. Something unique. I do not know why. I just do. If she dies, and I cannot stop that from happening, those who are responsible will truely, wish they had never been born. I can accept if she dies in the line of duty. It's part of the job. C'est le vie.

But don't even PRETEND to threaten me or make demands on what I know. When you need to know you will be TOLD and not one GOD DAMNED MINUTE sooner.

Your words, mean nothing.

I hope you understand, this is NOT the time to piss me off.

Have a nice day.

004 turns and leaves.

002 stands and stares. Uncertain.

[Joyce Carrington]

-- secret location, somewhere in Europe --

Voice: ...I will tell you when... and I will tell you how...

*009 nods, loads gun, and aims at bottle of Scotch on the table in front of her*

009: Goodbye, Matt.

*pulls the trigger*

*bottle bursts, glass flying everywhere*

*and Scotch*

*what a waste*

[Matt O'S oo4]

004 leaves and heads for his office.

Time to pack a few little things. Its time to put all this technology to work. Once and for all.

[Genrewriter]

*008 comes out of office, looking for Dr. Warmflash.*

"Molly?"

*Heads for office and knocks. the door swings open a bit and he finds Molly, slowly coming to.*

W: James?

008: No, it's me. What happened?

W: I...I'm not sure. I was in here with 009 when-

*008's face darkens.*

008: We need to find 002.

[Joyce Carrington]

*calls florist*

I would like to send four bouquets to MI6 in London. ... No, it's just the British Secret Service, don't worry. ... Okay, send them to 002, 003, 004 and G. ... No those are code names ... What do you care? ... Shut up ... White lillies... Oh, except for 004, send him a single red rose ... Put a card with them, saying: R.I.P. ... No I'm not kidding. ... Would you just do it? ... Fine...

*hangs up*

[Xenobia]

*Xenobia sighs as Warmflash and G enter*

X: I just got off the phone with a local florist. Here's the delivery list. *hands over list*

G: This isn't good. Especially for 004.

W: His emotions got the best of him.

X: No, they haven't yet, or he would have shot me after giving me the speech he gave me. He totally can not see how bad things are with 009. *sighs* But he needs to know now. Where is he?

G: I'll check. *uses the phone* Matt, it's G. We need to talk. Right. I'll be down. *rings off* I am going down to him now.

X: I'll follow, and wait outside. But just give me a sec to have security guard 004's office from the outside, and Molly...you need to go back to sick bay and lock yourself in.

*Warmflash nods*

All right, let's do it.

-- Xenobia

[Genrewriter]

*008 heads down to 004's office, hiding behind a corner. He glances back as 002 appears. He signals for her to stay low. A security guard approaches and 008 signals him over*

008: How do you want to do this?

Guard: Why don't we just knock?

008: Hmm, ballsy. What do you think, 002?

[Xenobia]

*Xenobia calls the guard over*

002: Wait here with me, and let G do this man to man. Tell your friends outside to lay low until you call them into action.

GRD: Right.

002: It's all yours G. Take it easy on the ole boy.
