Title: What?
Characters: Michael; Simone and Nikita mentioned
Prompt: Friends
Word Count: 100
Rating: PGish
Summary: Keep your friends close--
Spoilers: through mid-Season 1.
Friends - What?
He lost her.
Again.
“What right do I have to feel cheated?” he asked. But he did.
Two women. Dark and fair. Once privileged; once homeless. His love; and his…what?
Nikita was more than Michael’s material. She held a part of him he could not yet fathom. She listened while he talked; a rare occurrence indeed. Like Simone, yet so very different.
Without Section, it’s possible Simone and Nikita would have been friends. Though without Section, there would not have been a Simone. There would not have been a Nikita. No lover; no friend.
Was Nikita Michael’s friend? Or more?
Title: Why?
Characters: Michael; two canon characters mentioned
Prompt: Enemies
Word Count: 100
Rating: PGish
Spoilers: through mid-Season 2.
Enemies - Why?
A good woman died today because she tried to help me.
The enemy.
Not hers; her government’s.
Angie Georgiev, a nurse I kidnapped at gun-point. She could have had me killed; turned me over to the State police. She saved my life. She ran with me for the promise of exchanging one hell for another. But it wasn’t to be.
My rescue was a ruse. A means to recover Petrosian. The real enemy. A man who had Angie killed; tried to kill me. A deep-cover operative in Klodno. One of the “good” guys.
With friends like him, who needs enemies?
Title: Trust
Characters: Michael, Nikita, Jurgen
Prompt: Lovers
Word Count: 100
Rating: PGish
Spoilers: through mid-Season 2
Lovers - Trust
Nikita had trusted him.
That was a mistake.
Now she trusted Jurgen. More than a mistake; a death sentence.
She was hurt; Michael had done that. Betrayed her, and she turned to Jurgen. As a friend and as a lover. No. Michael decided he would kill Jurgen himself before he let that happen.
But the fates, for once, smiled on Michael. On Nikita as well, had she but known it.
Michael told Nikita he would miss Jurgen. He lied. It didn’t matter. Nikita knew only that she had lost a man she thought she loved. Her true love waited. Patiently.
