Wednesday's Child: "The New Kid on the block"

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Here's a taste of my story introducing April Dancer as a new Section II Field Agent.

Summary: Napoleon and Illya are introduced to the newest and only female Section II agent. This is a longer story based on a short fic. posted in honor of Stephanie Powers 70th birthday for the picfic Tuesday challenge.


"Hallo you wankers," "Mark Slate greeted Solo and Kuryakin with his usual enthusiasm. " I'd like to introduce you to my new partner."

"Napoleon Solo, Illya Kuryakin, this is Miss April Dancer, the first female Section II agent in all of U.N.C.L.E."

Napoleon nearly choked on his coffee, trying not to spit it out. Illya came to his aide, slapping him on the back until he was able to breathe.

"You must excuse my partner Miss Dancer, the sight of a lovely woman such as yourself and the thought of you being in harms way as a field operative can be quite disconcerting to a man such as he." Illya spoke calmly, not batting an eye.

April was dressed rather conservatively in a grey mini dress. Yet she watched Solo eye her up and down, with her long auburn hair apparently drawing his attention. She'd been warned of his reputation with the ladies and had already heard his name as well as that of Kuryakin mentioned quite a bit at Survival School.

Napoleon flashed a gorgeous smile. "Perhaps I could show you around and give you some advice on the perils of being a Section II agent...say, over dinner and drinks?"

"Really Mr. Solo?" She snapped back with just a tinge of sarcasm in her voice." That's so sweet of you, darling, but I assure you I can take care of myself very well and besides, I have a capable partner in Mark Slate and he has the honor of being my tour guide."

"You can call me Napoleon by the way," he purred, even though he'd just been shot down.

"So there you are, you ponces." Mark smiled as he took April by the arm, leading her away to be introduced to the staff in communications. "How are you with computers luv?"

"I can hold my own Mark, dear." She fluttered her eye lashes, and smiled, melting the Brit's heart in one shot.

April has her hands full with those two! Never thought Illya a 'tat' man. Nice story to bring April into the fold!

Cool! Glad you read it and like it. I'm im the middle of rereading it myself, and it's weird...I stop and say to myself...wow you really wrote this? (she pats herself on the back) LOL

PS did a lot of research on those tattoos, it's all based on and authentic hierarchy of tattoos worn by members of the Vor. A good movie to watch about that is 'Eastern Promises" starring Viggo Mortensen.
