Disclaimer: I don't own Alex Rider, but the plot is mine!

Alex sighed. He honestly didn't know why he let MI6 manipulate him. One moment he was a normal teenager with a normal life and the next he was a British spy. Now he was lying in the snow in some strange province in Northern Russia. Spying on a compound where there was a supposed assassin who was supposedly rogue. In short MI6 didn't know what was going on and coerced Alex into spying for them.

He froze still peering through the binoculars. There was someone oddly familiar walking towards the wooded hill where Alex was. Alex gasped and quickly started packing. There wasn't much to pack so Alex was ready to go in less than a minute. He turned around and fell back into the snow. Yassen Gregorovich was standing over him with a slightly worried look on his pale face.
