It's a New Day, Part III

[alynwa.livejournal.com]

Napoleon sat sipping a scotch in his living room in front of his fire, Illya’s words reverberating in his mind.  The Old Man wanted a female agent for the same reason he wanted a Soviet; to make UNCLE evolve.  That’s what I have to do, evolve.  April Dancer’s scores and grades in Survival School were impressive and Cutter!  He said she has what it takes.  So…..

Illya answered his phone, “Yes?”

“Partner Mine, I intend to treat April as a true equal.”

“Great, Napoleon!  Will you also do that for the support staff?”

“Baby steps, Illya, baby steps.”

“I see.”
