I Just Want To Get Home

Alex Rider Fan Fic

Chapter One

All Washed Up

….

Alex woke to the sound of waves lapping and birds calling. The sun was hot on his back as was the sand on his front.

It didn't take long for the memories what had happened to come swimming back. The fight with Kasper. The bomb on Ark Angel. MI6 using him again. And then landing in Australia. Alex wasn't sure how he was going to get back, he didn't know if any one knew he had landed here. I bet Jack's worried, he thought. I think I should phone her. But where is a phone?

Carefully Alex pulled himself off the baking sand. Sand falling from his dark short messy hair. Brushing more sand off his face he sat up and looked around him.

Behind him there was a dazzling blue see, stretching out beyond his eye. And to his left and right a on going bank of yellow sand, littered with the odd sell or stick of drift wood. In front of him a line of tress stretched out running parallel to the beach. Alex looked at the trees. They looked so cool compared to the baking beach he was sitting on.

Sighing Alex slowly lifted himself up on to his wobbly feet, sand falling from the folds in his clothes. The clothes he had been given to go and visit Ark Angel, a white t-shirt and a blue tracksuit with the Ark Angel logo stitched onto the sleeve, and they were not helping him much in this heat.

Slowly Alex made his way to the shade of the trees. He kept slipping in the sand but it didn't take too long to get to the shady cover they offered to him. From his shady stop he could see a road cutting though the trees and idea cutting through his mind.

After tripping and falling he finally made his way to the tarmac road. It was cooler than the baking sand on the beach but it was still hot. He concentrated on putting one foot in front of the other, hoping to find someone who could help him. The road was long and bendy and he hadn't seen any cars so far on his trek, but he kept going, getting slower as the hours passed.

Alex staged along the road the sun was high in the sky now and was beating though the cracks in the trees. He left out a small cry as he tripped on a rock and ended up at the side of the road, blood trickling down his knee. Alex just stayed on the ground, getting up seemed too much hard work at the moment. Yawning Alex put a hand to his head. Sleep seemed good at the moment. He feel back hitting his head on the grass his world turning back around him.

….

A car slowly made its way through the narrow bends in the road. The woman in the car was on her way home from work. She turned the sharp corner and stopped to a halt when she was a boy lying at the side of the road. She opened the back door of the car and moved her bag off the chair carefully before she lifted the boy slowly in., and carried on driving home.

A/N: Hello :-) I wanted to write a Fan Fic about Alex for a while and then this idea just popped in to my head. Hope you like it.
