Summary: Out of 'left' field, Napoleon and Illya are tasked with guarding a bride-to-be before her wedding in the Netherlands to a German aristocrat.

Rating: Gen.

At a 16th century estate outside of Amsterdam, the preparations for a stately wedding of sorts were rising to a near fevered pitch as the event loomed closer.  The deep, resonating chime of the clock tower sounded;  telling all the moment to depart had arrived. It was not a royal wedding but still, many royals would be attendance.

Saying Goodbye: A Sugar and Spies Drabble

Napoleon and Illya had finished packing for their trip to the Los Angeles office with Mr. Waverly.  They would be gone for three days.  Illya came out of his bedroom and called Leona from hers.

He knelt to speak to the four year old.  “Daddy and I are going to be gone for a few days, but we’ll be home Friday.”

“But Papa, we’ll be in pieces!  I’ll miss you!”

“Do you mean ‘apart’?”  Napoleon asked as he walked toward them.

“No, I mean ‘not together, in pieces;’ like a puzzle.”

Illya hugged her close.  “We will miss you, too.”
