None of the Gallagher Girls books ever happened. Anything you recognize from the books belongs to the author.
Summary: Cammie, Bex, Liz, and Macy are assigned to pose as four teenage foreign exchange students from England at a high school in Colorado. Cammie's mom claims its a practice mission but the four girls start to uncover things that says otherwise. Throw in spy boys, a terrorist group, jealous girls, and you've got yourself a recipe for disaster.
Happy Reading!

Chapter One: Mission Assignment
{Cammie POV}
"Where is my facial kit?" Macy growled, stomping into the room in her hot pink bathrobe and bare face. Macy McHenry: Senators daughter, total rebel, gorgeous, and a fashionista. One of my best friends, even if she wasn't the nicest when I first met her.
"Take a chill pill, beauty queen," Bex snorted from where she laid sprawled out on the floor. "It's on your bed where you left it." Rebecca Baxter: The daughter of the two famous Baxter spies for the M16 (British equivalent of the CIA), stubborn and a drama queen, but a loyal friend. I've been friends with Bex for almost as long as I've been living.
Macy cursed herself, grabbed her kit and walked back into the bathroom. Bex, Liz and I watched her angrily shut the bathroom door, almost knocking down Liz's reading lamp that's on her nightstand.
"What is she so grumpy about?" Liz asked, putting a hand on her lamp to steady it. Elizabeth Sutton: Genius before she hit pre-k, kind hearted, and known for her many, many, many...many note cards here at Gallagher. Liz has been my best friend as long as Bex has. Macy had been the last to join our little band of rebellions.
"She had to ditch a date last night because Solomon caught her trying to sneak out." I informed Liz and Bex. I swear sometimes I sound like Tina, the resident gossiper.
Liz rolled her eyes as she booted up her state of the art laptop on her bed. JUst as I opened my mouth to suggest a game to play the intercom came on. It was almost as if silence fell immediately upon the whole school and then my mom spoke.
"Will Rebecca Baxter, Macy McHenry, Cameron Morgan, and Elizabeth Sutton please report to my office? Rebecca Baxter, Macy McHenry, Cameron Morgan, and Elizabeth Sutton."
There was a three and a half second silence after the intercom clicked off. I didn't even know we had an intercom at Gallagher. My Mom usually sent Solomon or one of the other teachers to retrieve students.
Liz glanced at me and Bex then stated bluntly, "What did you three do?"
It took us six minutes and thirty seven seconds to get to my mothers office. It probably would have taken us a lot less if Macy had not had to wash her face off and then dress quickly (that included pinning her hair up). I could have gotten us there even with Macy being a hold up if we had taken the passageways I had found previously, but Macy, Bex and Liz refused to get dirty before seeing the headmistress. So we stuck to long hallways and empty corridors.
When we arrived, my CoveOps teacher, Joe Solomon (also the hottest teacher in school; no lie), and my mother were waiting for. That was expected. Solomon sat on my mothers couch while my mother was behind her desk with her hands folded. I knew this wasn't going to be a mother-daughter moment, but instead a headmistress-student moment.
"What held you up?" Solomon turned his gaze to Macy as he spoke, informing us he already knew so don't try and lie. Nothing gets past Solomon.
We sat on the couch opposite of Solomon and angled ourselves toward my mother, who had a serious expression on her face that I knew she had for when things were serious and she wanted everyone else to take her seriously. I straightened, feeling important.
"A mission has been assigned to you four," my mother said as she pulled our four yellow folders. "Here are your mission briefings; you leave tomorrow morning."
I always imagined what it would be like to be assigned a mission. The scenarios were constantly running through my mind during the day since, after all, that's what I go to school for. To do the governments dirty work. I didn't not imagine that a spy could sum this up in two sentences. Then again, I guess there wasn't much to say.
Solomon passed the yellow folders to us that held three pieces of paper. One paper was our mission briefing (mission number, the summary of the mission, location, issue date, etc). The second paper was our disguise (name, age, birthday, bio, etc). The third was everything we were required to take and everything we were required to leave.
"Pose as foreign teenage girls at Tattawa High School in Denver, Colorado," Bex read. She scanned the paper for any purpose of the mission but there was none.
"Why are we doing this?" Macy asked, raising one of her plucked eyebrows (even with my spy skills, that took me a year to learn).
"And why is my mission summary different, Headmistress?" Liz added. Macy, Bex and I leaned over and saw that there was an extra task for her.
"Remember when I said a good spy asks questions?" Solomon asked. We nodded our head, recalling the event perfectly. "That does not apply here."
My mother agreed, adding, "Liz, yours is different because you are listed as the technical support for this mission. Your equipment is waiting for you in the labs."
Liz nodded, looking over her 'required' and 'not required' list. It was also different. Macy huffed, seeing they had restricted her from taking most of her make up. I frowned when I saw that I had to be a girl that dresses up. Bex almost punched a wall when she saw she couldn't take her favorite gun/laser/x-ray/knife weapon.
"I promise you four are well suited and will do excellent," my mother smiled at us. None of us bothered to ask how long we'd be staying. Anna Fetterman asked that once in CoveOps and Solomon had answered, "As long as it takes, Ms. Fetterman."
Mom dismissed us, reminding us to learn our disguises inside and out before tomorrow morning and to be packed. I could already see the note cards Liz would be making before we even got back to our dorm.
That was the first chapter! The boys will be coming in soon; I just need to set the story up. Hope you enjoyed! Drop me a review on what you thought?
