It was really fun to go back and read everyone's drabbles. How incredibly entertaining and amazing they all are! Here are three from me. Cheers KT ^!^

Nikita 100 - Fix It

Paul sat, pensive, in the Tower. A subtle knock stirred him.

"Come."

Walter slipped in and stood, back against the door. Paul looked up, face hardened, eyes narrowed.

"It was you."

"Yes."

"Why? After all this time..."

"You promised me. I would've done it sooner if I'd known."

"You didn't have to kill him. It won't bring your brother back."

"True. But it sure makes me feel better."

Paul nodded. "How much do Michael and Nikita know?"

"Nothing. I never told them the reason I've survived in Section as long as I have."

"So... what now?"

Walter smiled. "We're even."

*********************************************************

LFN 100 - Sense of Touch

We stand face to face, warriors, on equal ground at last.

My fingers snake over her shoulder, grazing her neck.

"Are you ready?"

Her eyes consent.

Skin against skin, my fist strikes the mouth I kissed in hunger. Bones crunch as I hit her from the opposite direction. She falls against me. The smell of her hair mingles with the scent of blood.

Love and pain, trust and betrayal...

"Enough?"

Hands climb my body. An arm drapes around my neck.

Must... breathe...

"No. Not taking any chances."

A punch to the gut, a caress to her spirit, over and over...

******************************************************

Nikita 100 - Seasons

There you are. And aren't we fetching in black today?"

Her eyes closed. I must remember. I need to remember...

...the taste of rain-washed air, the color of cherry blossoms, the brilliance of the sun...

"It's time to celebrate our third anniversary."

...maple leaves, red beyond imagination, withering at autumn's touch, comforting as they swing in their descent...

Simone screamed as Sparks' bony fingers pressed another fiery scar into the once-perfect skin of her shoulder...

"Now, is that any way to thank me for keeping you alive?"

...snow, delicate flakes, soothing the pain, chilling the heat, insulating her heart...
