First of all, I need to vent... DELETE DELETE DELETE! Why am I deleting so much stuff from the ml? Why are they mostly one liners? And WHY are they mostly ALL from the same person??? I don't care! I hate Jessie's outfit! And whoever was talking about her oufit in the episode with the porthole, you e so right... that oufit was much better that the pink thing. And even that yellow/orange shirt in Ndovou's Last Journey was better. And she wore normal pants! >Lauren: I thought you'd like it as Asst. Director. >It's a fairly safe position. But if Nat Baker's not >still around, you can be my Sed Dispenser, who gets a >bodyguard. Thanks. Gee, I think I remember something about that, when you mailed me after I "temporaraly went off the ML". I don't wanna get hurt. And none of me persona's do either. Cherry, Mr. X, Josh, Greta, Anaya, Melana: RIGHT!! But I'd be glad to pass out seds! That's almost a full time job. Speaking of personas, the six of them have been conspiering lately... you may see a new person around here soon... Cherry: Hehehe Greta: How about Tuxedo Mask? Cherry: ::drool:: Lauren: you guys, we need someone to torture, not worship! Anaya: How about Hadji? Greta: He's alredy taken Anaya ::eyes bug:: not my sweetie pie! I will get him back! Zinjas, to your posts! Josh: Hold her back! Mr. X: How about a new bf for Jess? Cherry: NEVER!! Unless you want Jonny... Mr X: NEVER!! DBN FOREVER! Greta: Aw, shut up and help us tie Anaya up Melana or Anaya: I'm not Anaya! You have the wrong twin! Anaya left! ::they untie her:: Anaya: you guys are so gullible! MWAHAHA!! Hadji, here I come! Well, I still run this show, so even if Anaya does get Hadj I won't let her keep him... she'll have to settle with the clones from Chel's party... if they're still around... I HATE LURKING!!! Gosh, I have been gone from home for over 12 hours every single day, and I'm only 13! ::whimper:: it's not fair! I also hate the 200+ messages I have to wade through. Anyway, I've been babbling enough. On with the fic! Mr. X: No! I have to say this first. I'm talking because Lauren doesn't want to admit that a DBNer was RIGHT for a change. Whoever wrote that Jessie is more of a best friend to Jonny and a second mother to his kids is totally right! I can definatly see her has a career woman who is also Jonny's kids other mother, who watches them when their parents are away or when they get older takes them in for a cup of coffee when they can't stand their parents and tells stories of Jonny as a kid. HEY! Wait! Fic idea! Don't steal it! I must write! Ahh! Mr. X! Shut up! I won't listen! Cherry, tie him up! Cherry: already done. ANYWAY, If there are no more interruptions, on with the fic! This I started over Christmas break of 1997, Chriss, you may remember sending me your bio way back then, and I finally looked it over and wrote it. Here it is! disclaimer: i don't own nuttin. and there's something not listed on the title that might become a part of this fic but it is undecided as of yet so that's why it's no on here but if i do put that in i don't own that either and i also don't own chrissy or ryan because they own themselves, but i do own myself and nick because nick is not based on soemone i know unlike the two metioned above.. oxygen! rating: jjhr :), e, f, alt, hmmm.... and... i dunno untitled: a mi/jq/you'll see crossover (i need a title! help!) by melana zin PROLOGUE A young woman ducked quickly into the small, inconspicuous Thai restaurant, and took off her dark sunglasses. Smoothing her staticky blonde hair, another victim of the rainy weather, she stepped up to the woman standing by the lectern. “Hello,” she said pleasantly, “I have a reservation for Schwartz at 1:30 please.” The woman smiled and nodded, and motioned her to follow her. She led her to a tiny private room, gave her a menu, and left. However, the woman wasn’t interested in the menu. After checking the tiny place for bugs, she reached under the table and pulled out a computer disk. Unzipping her bag, she took out her Mac laptop and turned it on. She inserted the disk, smiling slightly, and opened the program. After giving it three separate passwords, she accessed the original message. A male’s recorded voice began to play as a picture flashed onto the screen. “Good afternoon Miss McKenzie. The man you are looking at is Jack Balinchen, a self made millionaire living for the time being in San Francisco. We have suspected him for some time now of being the head of a world wide drug ring, responsible for providing millions of adults and children with numerous illegal drugs.” The picture changed to show a hard looking man of about sixty, with gaunt features and a crooked nose. “This is John Tauber, Balinchen’s right hand man. Watch out for him. Our agents have tried to obtain incriminating evidence about this man, but they have not been successful. However, they have learned of a meeting between Balinchen's men and a buyer, somewhere in San Francisco. Your mission, Lauren, should you choose to accept it, is to obtain photographic proof of the exchange, repossess the drugs, and identify the buyer. We have selected a group of four other agents for this mission, from your usual team, all some of our finest.” A picture of an auburn-haired woman flashed onto the screen. Her green eyes sparkled. A list of stats were listed beside the picture, such as her DOB and her current location. “Chrystena Benitt. Code name, Wolf.” The woman smiled. Chrystena was a good friend of her’s, and together they had recently completed the mission lovingly nick-named by the team, “The Armed Bastards From Hell”. “Specializes at infiltrating head quarters. Been with us for 7 years, always completed her mission. She has no family to speak of. Currently in San Francisco, and has been observing the mansion for the past week.” The screen changed, and a young man’s picture replaced Chrystena’s. He had a mop of curly brown hair and warm brown eyes. “Nicholas Lancaster. Code name Luke Skywalker for his exceptional skill in profiling. Closest family is in Anaheim, California.” Lauren had met Nick while they were in training, and was amazed then at Nick’s exceptional skill. “Ryan Mak. Code name Wrench. Currently in the employment of the Luxury Nites Rental Limo Company. Joined the CIA seven years ago after graduating from Northwestern University. Majored in mechanics.” Lauren’s eyes scanned the stats listed nest to her friend’s picture. Her “usual team” was a group of her closest friends. It was against company policy to have relationships with the people you worked with, as it could sometimes mean the completion or failure of a mission. This was probably the only reason the five didn’t meet outside of work, and Lauren always enjoyed her missions with them. Again the screen changed, showing a picture of a fire-haired young woman. Her green eyes shone like emeralds. “Last, we have Jessica Bannon, code name Catwoman. Also specializes in infiltrating enemy headquarters, with a knack at acrobatics and a judo expert. Closest family, her parents, live in Venezuela. “As always, if any of your IM force is caught, or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This disk will self destruct in 5 seconds. Good luck, Lauren.” An automated box popped up, with the message, “Deleting disk now.” The woman shut down her laptop and picked up the menu just as a waitress entered. She ordered some lunch as her mind whirled with thoughts of her new mission. *** “This is a floor plan of the house. The party is to be held in these two rooms, with the kitchen right here,” Lauren said as she pointed to the said rooms on a large map spread over a cheap table. “The main entrance is here, and the servants entrance is here.” she said, looking pointedly at a dark haired young man sitting across the table. “Where’s the office?” Chrystena Benitt asked the speaker, her green eyes studying the map. “Over here.” her finger crossed the map to rest on a room on the third floor. Chrystena could see her friends dark eyes carefully study the surrounding rooms in case of the need to escape. That was Lauren for you, always looking at every detail. Which was probably one of the reasons that she headed this mission. “Ryan, do you know what to do?” Chrystena looked at the person that Lauren had just spoken to. Ryan Mak was a guy about 33 years old, and with the heart of a teenager. He loved to have fun and was probably about the sweetest guy she knew. He was of Asian decent, with black hair and brown eyes. His sparkling teeth were almost always smiling, as they were now. “Of course captain ma’am. I chauffeur you two ladies to the party, then I sit in my nice little limo for two hours watching you all, and then pick you up at exactly nine fifteen in the back of the house.” he recited. Lauren couldn’t help but smiling. “Nick?” she asked. “I get to do all the grunt work, don’t remind me. I get to the party at five with the caterers and work my tail off, while you three pretty ladies get to party, till eight fifty when I go with you and we break into that little office of Mister Balinchen, then I go jump in Ryan’s limo and when I get to the hotel I take a nice, long bubble bath with no interruptions.” he said, pointing to the various rooms he mentioned on the map. Chrystena knew she was next and began to tell her part in the upcoming caper with out being prodded. “I get to the party with you at seven fifteen, mingle and get up to Mister Balinchen and keep him occupied while you two,” she pointed at Lauren and Nick, “get the goods, then we all leave at nine fifteen.” Lauren looked at the last member of her team, the red head named Jessica. “I get there with you guys, mingle with Chrystena and keep an eye on the guards and Tauber, then leave at nine fifteen. And I get a bubble bath too, right?” she joked. “You guys,” Lauren’s tone made everyone’s laid back attitude vanish. They gazed at her somberly. “listen carefully. Balinchen and Tauber are incredibly ruthless men. If any of you, us, are caught...” she trailed off. “We go boom.” Ryan joked halfheartedly. No one laughed. *** you cannot resist the urge to respond! respond! respond! *** zin forever! melana and anaya and cherry and josh and mr x and greta and, most of all, the wonderful... lauren!! all those the mentioned above: bah!! _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
