The Last Mission Chapter 2

The Briefing

The elevator dinged and Mrs. Jones walked out. "Alex, come with me." Alex walked into the elevator and Mrs. Jones pressed a button.
While the elevator was heading up Alex asked, "Mrs. Jones do I really have to go to France again?" She turned around, looking surprised.
"How did you know that?" she replied.
"You tilted your clipboard when you came out of the elevator."
Mrs. Jones was thinking about how his skills had enhanced so much since they sent him to the SAS. He would never be able to think about what regular school would be like for him when he's always looking around his back for some long-forgotten enemies.

The elevator went straight up to Alan Blunts office. He looked up from his file and forced a fake smile.
"Hello, Blunt," Alex said coldly.
"Good evening," Alan replied.
"As you know we are going to send you to France, and then life will return to normal."
Alex snorted, "Nothing will ever be normal as long as I'm alive." Mr. Blunt gazed at him.
"What is going on here!"

Everyone turned around, and found Tom standing in the middle of the doorway. Mrs. Jones started talking, while slowly moving to his left side, "How did you get through the security? It is better than military grade. Almost as good as Mr. Potus security system." She finally finished talking, and was standing within 1 and a half yards (OK I'm from the USA so its yards here) of him and lashed out with her foot. Tom crumpled to the ground with a resonating SNAP! Alex rushed over to the crumpled heap or his best friend standing in the foot of the doorway. She turned to Alex. "Do you know him?"
Alex shouted up at her, "He's my best friend I've had after Jack and Sabina, if I found out he's gone…" Alex got lost in his trail of words. He reached down and felt his friends pulse. Alex sighed with relief. It was normal.

Tom woke up with a start, staring into Alex's eyes. "Whoa, little too close, buddy." Alex started to laugh. Tom sat up and realized that 2 other people were in the room. A woman who was currently sucking on a peppermint. The other one looked as if he had hobbled his way across a war zone, and hadn't got hit. It looked as if he had seen more things than the minister. Alan probably had. Tom asked again, this time more nicely, "What is happening?"
Mrs. Jones looked at Alex, who nodded his head. "We are sending you and Alex to France."
Tom stared up at Mrs. Jones. "How and why am I going to France?"
Alex replied, "While you were sleeping-"
"Alex I was not sleeping, I was in a 30 minute coma," Tom said with a snicker on his face.
"While you were in a 30 minute coma then, we decided that you are now a priority risk. Now you are going to France with me and another group," Alex said with a sigh.
"Wait, what group? I don't even think I could get down the street without my mom knowing where I go."
Mrs. Jones replied, "The people you are going with will be classified and I have a surprise for how you're going to get there."
