Chapter 1

The bell of Brookland School rang and a flood of students poured out into the halls. Alex Rider and Sabina Pleasure were among them. Alex had had a major crush on Sabina since the first time he saw her at the Wimbledon tennis matches and she had a crush on him, too. Thing is, neither of them was willing to admit it. She was one of the few who had figured out his secret. His true identity-Alex Rider: Secret Agent. He wished MI6 had never come to him with the Stormbreaker assignment. He wished that he had stopped right when he figured out what was happening. Sabina and he deserved better. He'd had to rush off mid-conversation many times so he could complete his mission. That had been when he was 14. Now he was 15. He felt that he had done his part to serve his country.

"Alex, what are you doing after school?" Sabina asked.

"Just the usual. Homework, TV, things like that." Alex replied.

"That's cool." Sabina replied with a smile on her face.

"Want to get together at my house? We can work on stuff together." Alex said.

"I'd like that." Sabina replied.

"Awesome." Alex replied closing his locker.

The two friends walked to the last class of the day-math. Miss Jackson was writing the assignment on the board. Now that Alex had been going to Brookland School for awhile, ten years to be exact, he knew exactly what the teachers expected and knew just how to get away with something without getting in trouble. Sabina and Alex walked into the classroom and sat down at their desks and got out their math books and assignments.

"Class, please turn to page 424 in your books and do problems 1-15." Miss Jackson said.

The only sound you could hear was the sound of pages rustling and the scratching of pencils on paper. Alex struggled with keeping his mind on the assignment. He was on number 13 when the bell rang. "Weird," he thought. "Normally I can finish the assignment before class is over. Wonder what kept my mind occupied. I know it couldn't have been MI6." Suddenly, he heard Sabina calling him and he rushed off to meet her.
