Disclaimer: Well sadly I don't own any of the Wat characters (not even Danny sob). And I don't earn any money with this so don't sue me.

Author's note: Well, this is my first WaT fan fiction (usually I write about Alias) and this is also my first fan fiction in English. So I apologize for any grammar or vocabulary mistake I made (and there must be some, lol). Hope you'll have a great time reading this and I'm waiting for your reviews...

MISTAKES

1. Part Of The Team

New-York City – 2.00 pm

Her appointment was at 2.30 but she was already standing in front of the building. Kim Twain was a tall; brown haired; 23 years old girl. She passed the FBI test when she was 19 and finished first of her promotion. She started working in the missing persons department of L.A. two years ago.

Right now, standing in this street, she was not scared, but really nervous, she has been sent here to replace an other agent. And it's never easy to come and replace someone on a team.

This was a cold winter day and she was already missing the L.A. sun. She strongly tightened her coat and walked toward the building.

The glasses door slowly opened and she smiled when she felt the warm air on her face.

She walked through the grand hall, and kept going 'till she arrived at the right door. She took a deep breath and knocked.

Jack Malone opened the door and she entered.

"Good afternoon" he said, " How was your flight?"

"Too long" she replied with a smile while sitting

"Ok, lets get the boring stuffs done" he sat down and started

"As long as you're here, you become a part of my team. And as long as you're a part of the team you'll have to act as a team member. It means, that you don't act in solo. Never. Got that?"

"Yeah, what's rule #2?" she replied with a smile

"Don't screw up anything" he paused "Ready for the big part"

"Kinda"

He got up and opened the door; she followed him into the main room. As they entered, all the eyes turned on her. She wanted to look calm but the best she could do was a poor smile.

Jack introduced her to the other agents.

"That's Agent Kim Twain. She's coming from the department of L.A. and she's going to replace Vivian until she comes back. I know it's not easy for you, but try being her. So I hope that you will be kind with her and leave the silly new-one-jokes at home." He glanced at Danny while saying that.

Jack left them and went back to his office. A tall blonde girl came toward Kim, and introduced herself.

"I'm Samantha Spade, pleased to meet you" she said

"Pleasure's all mine" she replied as they were shaking hands.

"The pretty-face over there, it's Martin Fitzgerald. And the one who's chuckling it's Danny Taylor.

She smiled and shacked hand with the boys.

As they were talking, Jack came toward them and said

"We've got a case" he paused, to make sure everybody was listening and continued "Kendra Dwight, 32, was taking her daughter Sandy, 6 years old, to school like every morning. But they never arrived. The husband called the police when he realized his wife and daughter were missing."

"Danny, Martin. I want you to go to the daughter's school, it's the Westerleigh School, on Staten Island. Take Kim with you. Samantha and I, we'll go to talk with the father."

Martin parked the car on a visitors place. They got out, and headed to the principal's office.

The principal, Robert S. Turetsky, a tall middle-aged man, received them in his office. He was a strong-minded man. The kind of guy who never gives up.

"Can I know what brings three FBI agents in my office?" he asked as they entered

"One of your student and her mother disappeared. And we're in charge of the case." Martin replied

"Girl's name is Sandy Dwight, 6 years old." Danny added

"I'm sorry but I don't know all my students. This year we have 829 kids who study here."Turetsky answered

"I understand, could you tell us the name of her teacher." Danny said

"Ask my secretary "

They left the principal's office and after asked the secretary, they went to see the teacher, Miss Andrew.

Julia Andrew was a middle aged, tall blond woman. She received them very politely.

"I assume you're here for Sandy" she said

"How did you guessed?" Martin asked

"Mr. Dwight phoned me to ask about his daughter. I said that I though she was sick, and stayed at home." she answered

"When did you last saw Sandy?" he asked again

"Friday afternoon. The class ended at 4.30 PM, like usually."

"Did you notice something odd about her? Was she like usually?" Danny asked

"No, she was bit more disturbing than usually because her birthday party was Sunday but that's all. She's a good student, you know. Very smart and gentle." she replied

"What about the parents? Have you already meet them?" Kim asked

"I never met him. But I saw Ms Dwight a couple of time, during parents-teacher meeting."

"How's she?" she continued

"A good woman, she loves her daughter a lot, and was very proud of her too. "

"And Sandy, she never had unexplained marks, bruises?" Martin asked

"If you mean, has she being brutalized by her parents, answer's no." she answered with a cold look for Martin

They kept on asking a few more questions, but without learning anything more. They left the school, hoping that the others would have been luckier.

---

Mr. Dwight was devastated. The two people that matter the most in is life were missing. And he had absolutely no idea of what was going on.

Jack was asking him some questions while Samantha was visiting the place

"Do you have any idea where your wife might be?" Jack started

"No. She doesn't have any family around. And I called all her friends." he said sadly

"Any reasons why she would have left?"

"No, what do you mean? She loves me. And I love her and our daughter." he replied raising his voice

"Did her comportment changed recently; was she nervous, stressed more than usually? What about this morning, was she like the other days?"

"She made the breakfast, and we started to talk about our next holidays." Mr. Dwight answered as the scene came back in his mind

BEGINNING OF FLASHBACK

"So, did you think about the holidays?" he asked with a cup of coffee in the hand

"Yeah, and I think Egypt is really not something we can afford. "she replied

"Then what? France or Brazil?"

"Nothing's more romantic than France." she replied with a smile

"France it will be then... "

He finished his eggs, kissed his wife and then left home for work.

END OF FLASHBACK

Mr. Dwight started to cry as he remembered the scene. Jack decided that it was enough and he called Samantha and they left.

She hasn't found anything suspect. It was the typical house. Small, clean, warm. The dream of every good American.
