The Fortune Cookie Affair - Roundrobin - Chapter 10

[pactnmmt.livejournal.com]

Illya hurried out of the room the fortune clenched in his hand. "He who spends time seeking wisdom in fortune cookie loses against evil. Boom!" Mr. Waverly must know immediately. UNCLE headquarters needed to be evacuated. He entered the elevator, pushed the necessary button. Dizziness overcame him. Nausea and blurred vision overwhelmed as cold sweat broke out on his face. If Illya didn't know better, he would have guessed he had been poisoned. The fortune cookies? Lisa Rogers heard the ding of the elevator and looked up as the doors opened. Illya Kuryakin laid in a heap on the floor.

Oh my, thank you for your enthusiatic comment! This is my first drabble. I originally was over by 25 words and had to find a way to pare it down without losing the impact. Not easily done for me...lol.
I'm glad you liked it.

For such a short chapter, you've got a lot in, and all of it good. I love the message.

I do hope whoever's writing the sequel does it quickly *flexes fingernails*

Thank you!

I like where you've taken this. It was in the back of my head all along, but with a round robin, one never knows. This has turned into quite a story. IK in a heap on the floor? I'm holding my breath. Marvelous job!

Thank you!! I was really worried that I might have put a monkey wrench in the whole works.

[lindafishes8.livejournal.com]

I had the same fear, but bounced it off a good friend who liked the idea.

Oh! Wow! This is fantastic!

[pactnmmt.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you like it!

I'm glad you could make something out of what I'd left for you.

[pactnmmt.livejournal.com]

LOL. You had me going for a few minutes with your ending, but I like a challenge!

Oh, wow, that was a brilliantly unexpected twist! Great work.

[pactnmmt.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

Oh my.... you've left quite a mess for me to clean up ;) Illya in a heap is some angsty goodness.

[pactnmmt.livejournal.com]

Oh dear, however with your writing skills I have complete faith in you. You know me, the angst queen.

Oh yikes! What a message! What a fate for poor Illya!

So hmm. It would seem the idea of messages in the cookies was all a ploy to get the cookies into U.N.C.L.E. HQ? How devious!

Who knows what evil lurks in fortune cookies... ;-) Maybe Illya won't be so quick to eat so many cookies next time ( I personally really dislike the darn things.) Thanks for your comment!

Oh wow, I didn't see that coming at all! Darned sneaky of the enemy to do that. Can't wait to read the next installment.
Hmmm, but did the fortune get placed as evil gloating or a desperate warning?

"Hmmm, but did the fortune get placed as evil gloating or a desperate warning?"

And how did it get there? Will IK recover in time to save headquarters? Is he really poisoned or is he having a reaction to his head injury? What the devil is NS doing? Questions answered by more questions! This story can go in so many different directions@ Glennagirl has her work cut out for her.
