Hey this is my first one-shot so I hope everyone likes it. Basically Zach got sent back to Blackthorne after book 4 and now it's time for his Cove Ops final, but since Blackthorne is a school for assassins...well read and find out.
Disclaimer: I don't own any characters except for Chris, Sam and Tim.
Zach POV
Cammie had gone missing before the end of term. My exchange with Gallagher Academy had ended 3 months ago and I was now back at Blackthorne. I was in Cove ops sitting next to Grant and Jonas, even though Jonas is on the research track all seniors were required for this class. "Gentlemen your attention please." Began Dr Steve, "Your Cove ops final would be to assassinate someone but there is no need for a death so holding at death point or kidnapping will suffice. Many of you will have met the target, which make this assignment even harder. You will be split into two teams, protectors and assassins. You know your objective but now you need a target." I was dreading finding out who the target was and I begged for anyone but the person who showed up on the screen. "Gentlemen your target is Miss Cameron Ann Morgan."
Dr Steve began to hand out folders with all the information we needed in them. Grant was on the protection team as a field agent. So was Jonas but he was tech support. As I looked at my folder my heart dropped. I was a field agent but I was on the assassin team. I was going to have to 'kill' my girlfriend. "Dr Steve is there anyway that I can switch sides?" I asked.
"No Mr Goode you can't change sides. If you have a problem with the assignment deal with it. Everyone get into your teams and start researching." The assassin team has some boys that wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet through Cammie's head. Chris was the one I was most worried about, he's good at what we do. "Oh look Zachie's afraid to assassinate his little girlfriend." Smirked Chris. (Not Zach's smirk though. An evil smirk! Gr8 now I'm being random)
"Shut up Chris." I snapped. He didn't know about my mother or the real reason we're after Cammie.
Tailing Cammie was hard. We all knew that she wasn't at Gallagher but that she had been on the run for over 3months. She was in New York. Half of the senior class was flying to New York to find her. I didn't know how Cammie while looking like I was trying to kill her, especially with Chris breathing down my neck. I also got the pleasure of sitting next to him on the plane.
"You know we get guns." I acted like I didn't hear him. "She's pretty hot, maybe I could steal a kiss before I put a gun to her head." He smirked and spiked up his mouse brown hair before spraying breath spray in his mouth and making kissing movements with his mouth. Gross.
"I swear if you put a finger on her I'll personally put a bullet through your head." I growled.
"Little over protective aren't we Zachary." I'd had enough. I lunged at him putting my hands around his neck. I heard shouting from my comms unit as Grant pulled me off Chris. "Calm down mate. He won't do anything to hurt Cammie."
"Did you miss the part where we get guns!" I yelled. Grant looked shocked at my remark. I stormed off to the back of the plane and stared out the window. I'll find you before he does Cammie, I'll keep you safe.
We landed 3 hours ago. I was talking to Tim through my comms unit. Tim was back at Blackthorne. If I couldn't have Jonas or Liz behind my back I would have Tim. "She's 25metres ahead of you." Said Tim through my earpiece. Luckily I had planted a tracker in a pair of earrings that Cammie had gotten from Jimmy (or Josh whatever). Ahead of me was a girl that I wouldn't recognise as Cammie but if you took away the black wig, blue contact and sneakers that made her look taller I would have recognised her anywhere. "Found you Gallagher Girl." I would have completed that assignment right then and there if I didn't hear a gunshot and see Chris sprinting after Cammie. I swore in German under my breath before running after Cammie and Chris. "Cammie keep running!" I yelled. Cammie kept running but Chris was faster than she was. He jumped at Cammie grabbing her by the ankles. She was sent sprawling on the pavement but as soon as Chris had his gun out she kicked it out of his hand, breaking several of his fingers in the progress. Just as I pulled my gun out to finish the assignment I was knocked over by Grant. Chris was trying to find his gun when Grant picked up Cammie. I had to complete this assignment so I tackled Grant and Cammie rolled on the road. I raced over to her and pushed her to her feet. I had one arm around her neck holding her in a chokehold and my gun pressed to her temple. "Don't move." I yelled. Cammie struggled so I pulled tighter on her neck and told her to stay still, I had to look like I would assassinate her without a second thought. "Well done Mr Goode. You can let her go now." Said Dr Steve through my comms. That was the signal I had been waiting for. I needed to get her out of here so I hit her on the side of the head with my gun. She went limp in my arms but I caught her before she hit the ground. I lifted her up in my arms only to be knocked down by Grant's partner was a redhead and his face was covered in freckles. Cammie went tumbling onto the road again only to be picked up but Grant and taken away in a van driven by Sam. I could rest now knowing that Cammie was safe. Then Chris fired a shot that hit the back left tyre of the van. The van went spinning out of control before smashing into a brick wall. Chris ran towards the van, through open the door and pulled Cammie out of the van. He out one arm around her pulling her to her feet and propping her head on his shoulder. "Nobody move." He demanded, pointing the gun at her, "I'm not afraid to shoot. She means nothing to me now that I have completed the assignment but I think I'll go for extra credit." He pulled Cammie into a nearby car before hotwiring it and driving away.
Cammie POV
I woke up in the back of a moving car. My wrists were handcuffed behind my back and I had a huge headache. As I rolled over I tumbled off the back seat and onto the floor. I remembered what had happened a few hours ago, being chased, attacking someone called Chris, Grant protecting me, Zach strangling me with a gun against my head and then everything going black. Oh. My. God Zach what were you doing? "Ah the black out beauty awakes. How do you feel Cameron? Wondering where you are? Don't worry, we'll be at Blackthorne soon enough." Blackthorne, so that's where he was taking me.
"So Chris what exactly do you plan to do with me?" I asked.
"Well Miss Morgan aren't you a good little spy figuring out my name. You are the target for Blackthorne's Covert Operations Final."
"You didn't answer my question. What do you plan to do with me?"
"I'm taking you to Blackthorne, if we kidnap you and bring you back we get extra credit."
"Good for you but there are other people playing this game." I smirked. I seen a van following us in the rear view mirror. I could see that Zach was driving.
Zach POV
Jonas had tracked the stolen car through speeding cameras and I was now following Chris and Cammie. Grant and Sam were in the back of the van waiting to jump out and grab Cammie. Chris had seen the van and was now speeding up. I followed the car and cornered it in an alley. Chris pulled Cammie out of the car and pushed her against the wall. He pinned her to the wall and kissed her hungrily. She was kicking at his knees when I pushed him off her. She slumped to the ground, her hands handcuffed behind her back. As Chris got to his feet we both pulled out our guns and fired. Chris's missed cause he was shooting with several broken fingers, but mine narrowly missed his head. We were both stunned by our shots, Cammie took the chance and kicked the inside of Chris's knees, knocking him to the ground. "Enough with the guns already!" She yelled, "Your as bad as Liz with a crossbow." She got off Chris and rammed her heel into the back of his head, knocking him out. "Are you ok Gallagher girl?" I asked, stashing my gun in my belt. "No I'm not ok Zach. I've been tracked down by assassins, held at gunpoint by my boyfriend, kissed by an alcoholic and all in the last six hours. Yes the alcoholic means you beer breath." She spat the last sentence at Chris. She kicked Chris again in the stomach. "I'm sorry Cammie. Do you want those cuffs off?" Cammie just gave be a blank look as Grant picked the lock on her handcuffs. "What are we going to do with Chris?" Asked Grant.
"I've got an idea." Said Cammie, "I'm going to need those handcuffs and some breath mints." Cammie was obviously very angry with Chris because she left him handcuffed, unconscious, just in his boxers with a mouthful of mints in the alley. "Couldn't have done it better myself Cam." I took a picture of him before getting in the van to begin the long road trip home.
Cammie slipped away just before we got back to Blackthorne. I would have to be careful of her now, she was getting good at sneaking away. We were congratulated on our return and as we entered the lab for cove ops I heard laughter. On the projector screen was the picture I took of Chris in the alleyway with only his boxers on. A very pale Chris stood explaining to Dr Steve what had happened. "I stole your camera and hacked the projector. Hope you don't mind Zach" I just laughed and said. "Hey Chris! That'll sure teach you not to kidnap my girlfriend again." I knew Cammie was safe thanks to a note she gave me by brush pass.
See you soon Zach
