The Fortune Cookie Affair - Part 16

((My apologies for the late posting - allergies are kicking my booty today.  Without further ado - here goes :))

Successfully restraining herself from rolling her eyes at Angelique's open flirting with Napoleon, April left handling her to the boys as she focused her attention on the unfortunate waiter.  Tremors seemed to be running through his body and she wasn't convinced they were fear related  In fact, April would have been willing to bet he was drugged or poisoned.  With Angelique in the equation, possibly both.

The edge to Napoleon's normally composed voice drew her attention back to the scene at hand.  He wasn't flirting back or even acknowledging Angelique's question, focusing fully on the waiter instead.

"He's not one of yours or one of ours. So who does he work for?"

Angelique pouted for only a second, there being no point in continuing since she knew it would have no effect whatsoever on Napoleon.

"You are no fun tonight, but I'll forgive you since I can understand not being amused at being played. Our side doesn't appreciate it either. Tell you what, darling. I've gotten two locations from him. I'll give you one location, we'll eradicate the other and then we can all get back to our usual adversarial contests without these upstarts throwing sand into our gears. Agreed?"

((Swatting the ball back to otherhawk's court))

Actually in my last chapter on Saturday Waverly said Illya was fine and was to go with Solo, Dance and Slate to Changs.... Apparently IK just ate too many fortune cookies, and the hit on his head wasn't that bad.

It's hard to keep track of so many details...eeek!
