This is my first fanfic for Nikita! I'm in love with the show! So this is basically what happens when Alex is caught. Enjoy!

It was late at night at Division and after a long day of training, Alex was glad to be resting in her room. She looked up at the clock and realized that it was time for her to head to the computer lab to talk to Nikita. It was a little past midnight so there shouldn't be many people outside. Throwing on a light gray jacket, she quietly slipped out of the room and tip toed down the hallway to the computer lab. After a quick glance of her surroundings, Alex logged onto the computer, waiting for Nikita's IM.

-Do you have any new updates on the next target?

-Apparently the target, James Kohl, used to work for this secretive missile company. James dealt with some guys but then he decided to quit and leave those guys hanging. The guys tried going after him and killing him, but James had already hopped a plane.

-What are the guys' names?

-I don't know, I haven't heard the names yet. I'll get it to you soon.

-Good. You said James is supposed to be coming back soon, right? Let me know ASAP before Division finds out.

-How am I supposed to do that?

-You're smart. You'll figure it out.

Before Alex could type back a response, all the lights flickered on as two security guards barged in unannounced. Alex whipped around as her eyes widened when she saw Michael standing right behind the guards. Her stool scraped backwards and tumbled over as she got up and stumbled backwards.

Michael nodded at the two security guards, signaling them to grab Alex and she did the first thing that came to her mind. She started running but didn't get very far for she was outnumbered and outweighed. The guards grabbed her arms and slammed her up against the wall. Alex grunted and tried kicking them but one kick to her back and her legs gave out.

The guards mercilessly dragged her back to the front and held here there tightly. Michael's eyes flickered in amusement as he accessed Alex's injuries. Her face was already bruised and her back had to be aching. He looked like he was about to say something but then instead, pulled out his cell phone.

"Birkhoff, get to the computer lab now," He barked into his cell phone and then snapped it shut.

He turned his attention back to Alex who was staring back at him.

"We've been monitoring you for about a week now," Michael said. "We were keeping a close eye on you and look what we found out."

"What are you talking about?"

"Oh, come on now, there's no point in denying it," Michael chuckled, "We have everything on tape and the computer." He gestured to the computer that was still open to the chat box.

-Hello? Are you still there?

-Alex?

Fear hit Alex as she realized she hadn't closed the screen when they came. She lunged towards the computer but a simple light punch to her chest sent her reeling back, and she collapsed onto the floor for a couple seconds.

Michael came over to her and bent down.

"What do you think you're doing? You can't get rid of the evidence," Michael said.

At this point, Birkhoff came in with a look of disdain. Having been woken up in the middle of the night upset him. He came in wearing only a t-shirt and sweats.

"What's the big deal here?" Birkhoff grumbled. "I'm trying to get some sleep."

"Birkhoff, I need you to download all the data from this computer," Michael ordered. "We finally found out who's leaking our information."

Birkhoff's eyes instantly lit up and he quickly made his way over to the computer Michael was standing next to.

"Alright, this should be done in about five minutes," Birkhoff said, sticking in what appeared to be something like a USB stick. He fiddled around on the computer and with the click of a few buttons, he was done. He took out the stick and handed it to Michael.

"Perfect," Michael said. "Now I'm going to have a little chat with Nikita. It's been too long since we last talked."

Alex's head jerked up. "It's not Nikita," She said, her heart hammering inside. Everything was going to end now. They were going to go after Nikita and it would be all her fault.

"Oh, are you sure?" Michael asked. 'Who else could it be? Tell me."

Alex spat at Michael and hissed, "I'm not telling you."

Michael smirked as he slowly wiped his face. 'Well, I'm just going to have to find out." He stood up and walked over to the computer and started typing.

-Nikita, we have Alex. Give up and we won't hurt her.

-That's a lie. And you know it.

-Oh, please. We gotta do what we gotta do. Meet me at the park on 4th and 6th at 8

-What makes you think I'll come?

Michael chuckled as he typed his next response.

-Because if you don't, Alex will die. It's as simple as that.

Alex grimaced as she squinted and tried to read the messages. Don't do it, Nikita. It's not worth it. I'm sorry I got us into the mess. She watched as Michael closed the window into a satisfied smile.

"Looks like Nikita is finally coming out of her hiding place," Michael said. 'And it's only a matter of hours until she's back here. Just like old times."

Alex let out a scream of frustration as she realized there was no way out of this.

"Please, shut up," Birkhoff groaned. "It's like 1 A.M. for god's sake. Have some respect and courtesy."

"Respect and courtesy?" Alex scoffed. "For who? You? Please, you don't deserve that from anyone, nerd."

Birkhoff frowned and slapped Alex. Alex eye's watered as the sting faded slowly.

"Birkhoff!" Michael snapped. "You don't get to touch her."

Birkhoff's mouth dropped open as he protested. "Did you hear what she said to me?"

Michael shrugged. "Yeah, and frankly, I partially agree with her."

Despite her anger, Alex threw Birkhoff a triumphant look.

"You expect me to help you still?" Birkhoff sneered.

"Yes, I do," Michael said calmly. "Now go back and get me the results for the rest of the data. I need it now."

Birkhoff glared at Michael and then stormed out.

"So now this is where the fun part begins," Michael said.

"You mean the part where I die?"

"Not quite. A little before that," Michael said. He signaled the guards to pick Alex up and watched as she immediately started thrashing.

"Put me down!" She yelled, still trying to fight and break free.

"Let's bring her to the interrogation room," Michael said and headed out the door.

Alex stopped moving as soon as she heard Michael's last sentence. Interrogation money? She immediately flashbacked to the time when she and Thom had been kidnapped while on the way to an operation.

It turns out it was all fake and just a test. Alex had suffered being shocked multiple times and only narrowly managed to escape. The thought of having to be in a similar situation freaked her out. This could not happen again. She couldn't go through the same situation. She wasn't sure if she could handle it like she did last time. Her breaths started coming in and out. Each passing by more quickly and quickly until the last thing she saw before she blacked out was the face of Amanda.
