Napoleon tore down the hallway totally unaware of the stares he was getting as he rushed to his partner's aid. He was so tuned in to his feelings that something was wrong that he literally ran into the three people leaving Illya's room. Stepping back he began to apologize then the robes they wore sunk in.

"What the hell is going on?" Illya's new bride looked him up and down.

"I do not think you need to concern yourself with my husband. It is my wedding night and Illya is getting prepared."

The dark haired agent's eyebrows rose to his hair line. "In that case I should give him a few pointers, I am the one who is the womanizer?" She smiled a smile that sent a shiver up his spine. "I am his wife I will teach him what I want." She replied.

Napoleon nodded and smiled softly. "Then I will just go in and say goodbye." The two robbed men with her stepped in his way. She tucked her arm into his and turned back towards the party. "I need to say our goodbyes, why don't you escort me?" She asked as one of the men helped her out of her robe and she started down the hallway with him in tow as the two men followed.

He went with her meekly and was relieved when the two men veered off to another hallway as they continued towards the party. Napoleon stood beside her with a smile plastered on his face as she made her thank you speech to those that remained for her and her husband. His eyes surveyed the crowd looking for Mr. Waverly but he could not find him anywhere. He looked at her. "Do you mind if I stay and have a few dances? It seems as if my boss has disappeared."

She chuckled. "No, not at all; please enjoy yourself. I certainly plan to."

He felt his skin crawl before he was forced to reply the young woman he had been with approached. "There you are you naughty boy! You promised me a dance." With that he was lead to the dance floor, as he swung his partner around he was suddenly looking at the old man. Startled he about stopped in his tracks the person in his arms forced him to continue as if he were with the beautiful girl.

"Your friend is in danger; he must not be left alone with the woman. Get to him now before it is too late."

As the dance ended he was lead out the door to the garden by the girl, but Napoleon was not surprised to see that they were on the side of the house that Illya's room was located. Turning to thank the person he realized that he was alone in the garden. Shaking his head he looked around and spotted the room Illya was in, being cautious and making certain that he was not seen he crept up the drain pipe and opened the window. He was more than surprised to almost step on his partner who was curled up under the window rocking as if in pain.

"Illya, are you alright?" When he did not get an answer he reached down to touch his friends shoulder, it was as if an electric current went through them.

"Napoleon get me out of here. NOW!" With out a word he pulled the slight blond up.

"Can you make it down the pipe to the car?"

Illya was pale but nodded and went to the window, Solo climbed down first just incase the other man lost his grip.

They made it to the car and out of the drive, past the guards. "Illya, what is going on?"

"Get me out of here, out of the country." Solo stared at him. "Illya, are you afraid?"

The blonde looked at him wide eyed. "I am terrified. Just get me out of the country."

Pushing the gas pedal down further he glanced at his friend. "You O.K.?"

Illya stared at him. "No, I `m not."

Solo sighed. "I need to get in touch with Mr. Waverly..."

"No! I think he might be involved in this." Illya stated sharply.

Two hazel eyes bored into him. "What do you mean?" Napoleon asked softly.

"When she came into the room she had two men with her, they were all in robes and they were chanting. Then they were talking and I heard them say that Waverly was willing to sacrifice me to save himself." When Napoleon didn't argue, the blonde man sighed. "What?"

Napoleon took a deep breath. "I tried to get to you earlier and was stopped by your bride and her two gowned friends, then was rather forced to leave without saying goodbye: by your bride. When I went to look for Mr. Waverly he had already left." Illya swallowed.

"Without saying goodbye?" The other man sighed.

"Yes, not even a goodnight."
