Chapter Two:

Alex sat in the sun tanning. After a long week of school finals, he was happy that it was finally summertime. He looked around and saw a waiter coming toward him.

"You looked parched son, can I get you anything."

"Yes sir, I'll have a glass of lemonade."

With that, the waiter took off. As he waited for his lemonade, Alex thought about how great it was that his last case had turned out so well. Thanks to being able to finding the criminal, the family that was being held hostage paid Alex a handsome reward, which was more than what MI6 had ever done for him. Once he had gotten the reward, he and Jack had flown off to the Caribbean and were staying there for two weeks. It was currently his fifth day in the Caribbean and so far, he had been snorkeling, surfing, and even learned how to cook some new recipes.

Suddenly, his cell phone's ring tone of "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" began to play. Sighing, he picked it up.

"Hello," he said.

"Alex, this is Alan Blunt, we need you to report to MI6 headquarters at once."

Alex sighed. When were these people ever going to leave him alone?

"Forget it, I almost got burned to death in that last mission that you sent me on. I am not working for you guys anymore."

"But Alex, it's serious. This time, it has to do with where you currently are."

Alex sat up straight.

"Wait a minute, how do you know where I am?"

"Right after your little mess with Scorpia, we inserted a tracking device inside of our brain. This tracking device can tell us where you are at any given time."

Alex sat there looking at the phone in shock.

"Wait, you mean I can't ever go anywhere without you finding me?"

"That's right, but enough about that. There is currently a serial killer running loose in the Caribbean town in which you are staying in. He disguises himself as a waiter and serves people drinks with poison in them. We are pretty sure he is at the hotel in which you are staying at."

"A waiter… wait a minute, hold on my drink is here." Alex said as he reached out to get his lemonade from the waiter that delivered it. "All right, I'll keep a lookout, bye."

As Alex hung up the phone, he reached out to sip his lemonade. Remembering what Blunt had said about the waiter, Alex decided to check the lemonade just in case. He glanced at the lemonade and noticed a brownish liquid floating along the bottom. Scooping his finger in the drink, he scooped some on his finger. He smelled it and eyed it before finally figuring out what it was.

"Arsenic," he muttered to himself starting to get up. He reached for his cell phone and

dialed a number. A woman picked up on the first ring.

"Jack, this is Alex, I am now once again chasing after a serial killer. I need to go up to the room to get the gadgets Smithers provided for me on my last case. Keep an eye out for a waiter in a white tuxedo with a balding head and a little black mustache."

"Where are you staying Alex?"

"I am outside on the hotel patio. Now hurry!"

With that, he hung up. As he hurried up to his room to get the gadgets, he couldn't help, but wonder why he was always in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Waiter's POV:

The waiter that Alex was after huddled inside of a telephone booth. He was inside the telephone booth making a phone call. All of a sudden, he felt something liquidy flowing onto his feet. He glanced up and gasped. The glass walls to the phone booth had melted. He looked up and saw a teenage boy with blonde hair and brown eyes glaring at him. The boy was pointing what looked like a candy bar at the last wall in the phone booth and melting it. Without question, the waiter pulled out a gun and pointed it at Alex's head.

Back to Alex's POV:

Alex stood there in shock. He knew the waiter would be sneaky, but not that sneaky. Without question, Alex went into complete Karate Kid mode knocking the gun out of the waiter's hand and thrashing a blow at his throat. Unfortunately, this did not knock the waiter out. Even though he had lost his gun, he was still very powerful. He delivered a blow to the side of Alex's head. Not seeing it in time, Alex passed out.

Sorry guys, I had a hard time with the whole fighting scene. Don't worry, theres more to come. Hope you enjoyed it.
