The Fortune Cookie Affair - Part 17

"Here's a better idea," Mark suggested. "How about we take you in and you tell us both the addresses?"

She gave a silvery laugh.

"THRUSH would have dealt with both locations long before we got any information out of her," Napoleon pointed out.  He looked directly at her. "We've got an agreement. But we take Jie as well."

She eyed him critically. "Oh, if you must. He's no more use to anyone....unless the food here is that good. You know, you and Kuryakin should be less predictable in your movements."

Napoleon had already had this lecture from Mr Waverly, he really didn't want to hear it from Angelique. "Are you going to tell me where I'm going?"

"The basement of Hurley's Bar," she said, wrinkling her nose. "Well, ciao for now." Gracefully, she started moving towards the back door, not taking her eyes off them for a minute.  "Oh, and Napoleon, darling, do be careful. You know what these extremist groups are like. They make us look like pussy cats."

That explained where Ecks came in. "Follow her," he said to April in a whisper,  "Find out where the second address is."

She smiled, not needing to be told twice.

LOL. I love Napoleon grousing silently about getting the same lecture from both Mr. Waverly and Angelique.

Ah, so Ecks and Wye are supposedly with another extremist group? Hmm, I wonder. ;)

And April will follow Angelique! How fun. Ah, the life of spies.

Nice giving April a role. Also, I do like Napoleon had already had this lecture from Mr Waverly, he really didn't want to hear it from Angelique.

Oh my! Thrush, Extremists, Spy vs Spy, Angelique... Yeah, and I have a feeling that Chang's won't be on the lunch menu anymore.

Another excellent turn to the story. April off following Angelique? Oh oh...another splinter group for sure? And still, where's Illya? mwahaaa-haaaa!

Thanks - I have this thing in my head that Angelique would be more inclined to underestimate April. Don't know why, I just think she's the type.

Made sense to me that they'd go to another group that shared their views...whatever they might actually be. I seem to remember that episode being very hazy on what flavour of extremist they actually were. Personally, I'm hoping for the Illinois Nazis from the Blues Brothers. Everyone's probably very glad I didn't write that in. :)

Well, that really depends how good the food is. After all, no one's said that the chef is working for any of the bad guys.... Thanks for commenting.

Well, you're the one who ultimately has to tie this all off and put a bow on it. :) Thanks!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Yeah...(she says nervously) I better find a big bow. LOL!

LOL.

Very true, if any group would let them in knowing that they betrayed their former organization. (I gathered that what they wanted was power and control, instead of having any delusional views about changing the world "for good" through extreme measures. Some of their members seemed to have those latter ideas, especially with comments like "sacred organization" being accepted among the group. But then, we don't see Ecks and Wye very much and either could be true.) I'm rather skeptical that any organization would let them in knowing their past, but there probably are some nutty enough to do it. ;)

This makes for a very interesting gambit of some sort. We'll all be hungry for Chinese at the end of it.
