Disclaimer: I own nothing you recognise, CHERUB belongs to the author Robert Muchamore and not to me…unfortunately…

A/N: Ok this idea just popped into my head and the next thing you know I have characters, plot and thirst (so I solved that by grabbing a coke) and I solved the rest by writing this…enjoy!

FOR OFFICIAL PURPOSES, THESE CHILDREN DO NOT EXIST.

Prologue

"…as your punishment we shall be sending you on a recruitment mission."

"What! No please not that, anything but that!"

"Would you prefer losing your position as handler?"

"Ok I'll do it."

"Good, your special, Melissa, you are the youngest member to ever be given a job as handler, I wouldn't want you to lose it because you lost your temper and broke a boys arm now, would we?"

"No, sir." Replied Melissa standing in the centre of Mac's office and looking down at her feet in shame. "Where are you sending me?"

"London, we want you to collect a group of girls who you think would be appropriate to become new recruits. To make life more easier for you we will be returning you to your old school that way you wont have to spend months trying to make new friends."

"What your sending me back to Green Wood?!"

"Yes, we are. You will be a year 10 student and you leave tomorrow."

"Err…ok…um I'd better go pack!" and she ran out the door with a huge smile on her face.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey what's your tutor group?"

"10:0, you?"

"10:4"

"Hey Rachel! Ara!" a girl with dark brown hair called out from behind a group of year 11's.

"EMMA!" Ara and Rachel called out in unison.

"Hey Aamena said that she will be a couple minutes late she's meeting Carina and someone else."

"Who?" Rachel asked eagerly forgetting about the tutor groups and now entirely fixated on Emma.

"I don't know, even she's unsure. She was just told that Carina was bringing someone."

"Ok then, err, why don't we go stand outside we can meet them by the gates." Rachel popped up. "So what did you do this…" She stopped abruptly as she looked over to the gates and saw Carina, Aamena and a young girl with blonde highlights walking towards them. "MELISSA!" She and Ara ran over to their old friend and jumped on her.

"How, what, when?" Ara asked getting confused with herself. "Carina! Hello! You knew? For how long? Wow! It's Melissa! Hi Aamena!"

"Calm down Ara its only a commercial" (this does not belong to me either unfortunately) Melissa spoke getting her breath back.

"Are you here for good?" Rachel asked calmly whilst grinning like a Cheshire cat.

"Yeah, I'm back. Miss me?"

"Nah we didn't miss you." Rachel answered.

"Much." Ara added.

"Your right Carina, nothing has changed. Hey Emma! How's the Karate thing going?"

"I'm a black belt."

"Wow wee remind me not to get on your bad side." They all laughed.

The bell went and they all turned around and headed into the school.

"Here we go again." Melissa whispered to herself as she let her friends lead her into the upper school block.

A/N: ok here's the prologue, now here is where the story speeds up, and so there will be a huge time difference between now and the next chapter. There will be some alteration to the rules that CHERUBS usually follow hence why there is a 15 year old handler, this is because Melissa became a navy shirt after her first mission and a black shirt after 3 making her the youngest member to wear a black shirt. After further outstanding achievement a job vacancy opened up and they offered the position to her as a reward. James and Lauren Adams will appear in this at some point. Ara, Rachel, Carina, Emma, Aamena and Zoe (she has yet to appear) are all orphans one way or another and so are all in foster care. That's all I can think of right now, if you want to know anything else please review!
