Alex Rider sat in class. The room was quiet. Too quiet for a spies liking. One teacher wandered the classroom. He tried to focus on his math problems but to no avail. He felt a vibrating in his pocket. He put down his pencil frowning. He put his hand into his pocket and pulled out his phone. Watching the teacher,he unlcoked his phone and looked at the text it read: "Rider,report back to me when possible. Blunt". Alex rolled his eyes and put up his hand. The teacher came over and bent down to Alex's level. "Are you okay?" She wisphered her minty breathe hitting Alex's check. He smiled "Yes thanks,can I go to the toilet?".
She sighed and stood up straight. Annoyed that he didn't want her help. "Yes" She said walking away. Alex stood up pushing in his chair as he went picking up his blazer. He opened the door and left. Pulling on his blazer.
He went down the long shinny corridor looking at the art that was displayed. He smiled fondly and wished he had time to do these seemingly fun things and pushed open one of the emergency doors. Setting off an alarm in the distance. He ignored it and walked on.
He walked out into the yard and down towards the gate. He pulled out his phone and dialed the number. "Blunt" came the reply. Alex raised his eyebrows "Rider" he replied. "Ah Rider" said Mr Blunt. "We need to speak now,MI6 are coming to pick you up as we speak". "Okay" said Alex. "Can I ask why?" . "No" snapped Blunt and the line went dead.
Alex took the phone away from his ear. A sreaching filled his ears. A car pulled up next to looked into the window and smiled at the sight. He opened the door and and got in. Ben Daniels smiled at Alex as he applied his seat belt "Cub" he said. They drove down the road towards MI6 base,Ben Daniels took a sharp left in the direction of the hospital. "What,where are you going?" asked Alex confusedly . "You'll see" said Ben. He parked the car and walked inside the building a women sat at the front table filing her nails. She lifted her head and nodded at Ben. He walked across to the lift and pushed the button. Alex followed him awkwardly.
They got into the lift and Alex watched the figures get smaller as they rose up. He looked at Ben who stood in silence looking straight ahead. The lift dinged and they exited. They walked along a long corridor that smelt strongly of cleaning Material. Ben opened one of the doors and ushered Alex inside. Inside Alex saw Mr Blunt and Mrs Jones. He looked at them. They looked gravely back. His eyes shrived to the bed. It was Wolf.
He ran to the side of the bed and grabbed Wolf's hand. The guy was a mess. One eye was burst across his face,there were cuts everywhere. "What happened?" asked Alex. Wolf looked at him slowly "She did it". "Who?" cried Alex. Wolf choked on his breathe and repeated "She did it" "Her nails were red". Then his started to shake violently. The machine at the side of his head screamed. Nurses and doctors came bursting in. Alex was forably removed from the room. Alex stood back and sighed. Mr Blunt and Mrs Jones exited the room. "Come along Rider" said Blunt "You have a mission to do".
In MI6 Alex was shown the mission brief. Several men had made business deals with a man named Edward Pleasure. They went through to his Island to sign the contracts and then something happened. That they had no Intel about. Three men had died but two had come back deleterious and with no memory apart from a female with red nails. "That explains Wolf" said Alex. Blunt nodded and continued. Wolf went out on the mission and had been washed up on Bondi Beach. Completely not where Mr Pleasure's Island is. "So Alex" said Mr Blunt "Your mission should you accept it,of course" he said with an edge to his voice .Is to go to the Island but not to strike a business deal,you are to be the son of Lord Percy Witfield and you are coming to have his daughters heart. Daisy Pleasure". He handed Alex a file. Alex opened the brown eveplope and saw a photo of an attractive blonde headed girl who was caked in makeup .It was a shame that she was wearing so much makeup she was quite pretty. But then again most girls did wear a lot. He skimed her infromation. She was sixteen and her likes were listed as Shopping and generaly girly things. Alex sighed deeply and said "Do I have to do this?" "Yes" snapped Mrs Jones.
24 hours Later.
Alex left his hotel room. He was dressed in a black suit and dress trousers to match. His hair which had once been wild and long was now trimmed and standing up straight. He opened the car door and got in. He felt for his phone and turned it off.
He looked out the window and saw the looming figure that was a mansion. He opened the door and climbed out,earning himself a glare from the driver. Alex tried not to make a face. "Mistake one Rider" he thought. He was directed through the large house. Towards a large and spacious living room. He sat on the cream couch and exaimed his surroundings. The room was painted a deep red with match curtains with gold trim. The walls were covered in tapristers and paintings. Expensive looking ornimants dotted the room carefully. This was obviously the work of a women.
The door opened and Alex stood up. An older man and two young girls entered the room. He was wearing an expensive looking blue suit. He was old looking but he had a fitness about him. He was tall and white. His hair black and styled flat. He had little facial hair,at the bridge of his nose sat a pair of gold rimmed glasses. Standing next to him were two girls. One who was caked in makeup assumed was Daisy. She was bronze tanned which Alex guessed was fake. She was wearing a short black dress with incredibly high black shoes. A bag was clutched underneath her arm,she had a collection of bracelets and was wearing long fake pink nails. She grinned inthursatly at Alex. A girl stood next to her. This girl grabbed Alex's attention. She was short and dressed so causally for the standard of home her parent and sister were giving off. She was wearing no makeup apart from heavy black eyeliner which was winged. She had long balck curly hair,a grey beanie sat on top of her head. She was dressed in a black band t-shirt that Alex wasn't aware of. She wore black jeans and dirty scuffed converse on her feet. She had her hands in her pockets and was looking down completely uninterested in Alex. "Alexander Witfield" stated Mr Pleasure. "Correct Sir" answered Alex smiling producing a row of perfect shinny white teeth. He leant forward and shook Mr Pleasure's hand. Mr Pleasure stood back and put out his arm "My daughters Daisy and Sabrina." The quiet girl looked up at the sound of her name being mentioned and smiled at Alex. He smiled. Daisy jumped forward and shook Alex's hand. She gushed information at him,which Alex nodded at but his attention remained on Sabrina . Who looked back at him. Her cheeks flushed deeply,she stood forward and shook Alex's hand. Her hands were soft and Alex noticed she was wearing a collection of wristbands and one black ring. "Well" said Mr Pleasure. "If you would like to come this way, Mr Vu,will show you to you room".
Mr Vu was an old Chinese man. Alex smiled at him and said "Good Afternoon". Mr Vu looked at him. "Mr Vu is deaf but does know sign language." said Mr Pleasure. Alex spoke his apologizes and followed Mr Vu up the man showed him is room and Alex signed his thanks to him. Mr Vu looked at him and left the sat down on the bed. First Mr Pleasure had one daughter but now has another,Mr Vu is supposed to be deaf but does not know sign language. Something fishy was going on here and Alex was going to get to the bottom of it.
