Chapter 2: The Escape

Cammie POV

~1 June 2006~

Catherine tried to shoot me but I dodged it as I continued to lunge at her and knock the gun out of her hands. I had two options, one to kill her and remain in the Circle's custody or knock her out and have a possibility of escaping and coming back for her. All I knew that was my father was dead and my mother was out there somewhere looking for us and hoping we were still alive.

I couldn't kill her, I had to keep my promise to my father. They could not get the list, no matter what. I crashed into Catherine and she landed on her back on the cement floor.

Grant POV

As I ran towards the gun shot I thought of why they put Zach and I on this mission. First off, Zach's last name is Goode which meant his mother was one of the most high ranking circle agents there was. There would be no questions surrounding him joining and playing a double agent while attending Blackthorne Institute and recruiting agents from the inside. Which worked for my cover and allowed me access into the secret facilities. As well as Zach is one of my best friends and I had known him since a year before we both started at Blackthorne and he told me he didn't want to work for the circle. So, we got together with the Director of the CIA and he told us that there had been high value agents captured by the circle who they still believed to be alive. Zach and I agreed to go undercover and act as triple agents. We only had the names of Matthew Morgan and his daughter Cameron Morgan to go off. They said they had several other agents go after them but none of them were able to get close enough to the inner circle to know their precise location. As all they could find out was that they were alive and not talking.

"Shadow, I am 30 seconds away, where are you?" I said into my coms unit as I continued towards the interrogation rooms.

"Greek God, I am just securing our way out with Hacker." Zach replied.

I have never met the Morgans in my time here, I mostly just collected the information from the interrogations and over heard Steve complain about this Cameron Morgan and how she was too nice to be someone in captivity. Zach said he had met Matthew once but never Cameron, he said his mother was too worried he might be interested in her. Which is completely absurd as Zach is by modern definitions a player and doesn't stay with a girl for longer than a week.

I heard another gunshot and a loud crash and ran even faster than I thought was physically possible for me, even in my fantastic physical shape that I was in. Zach had chosen my code name as I did indeed resemble a Greek God.

Just as I turned the corner I could see Steve's legs on the floor and the door into the interrogation room was wide open. I could see a girl on top of Catherine fighting for control and a limp Matthew in a chair with blood seeping out of his gunshot wound, he was dead.

"Get over here you fool and help me!" Catherine screamed at me as I walked in, and just then Cameron noticed me and I could see in her eyes she was scared.

"Here to help." I said casually as I lifted Cameron off of her and proceeded to punch Catherine so hard in the side of the face she passed out.

"It's time to go and we don't have long. I'm sorry about your father Cameron but you can trust me, the CIA sent me." I said to Cameron as I could see she was contemplating what to do. She eventually nodded her head and followed me.

"You can call me Cammie, I mean you are helping me escape." She said as she followed me through the maze of the facility.

"Okay Cammie, well my name is Grant and we have contacted your mother so once we are out of here we will take you to HQ and you can hopefully see her soon." I replied as we continued down the halls, but we were almost in the parking garage and would be able to meet Zach and Jonas.

"It's nice to meet you Grant and thanks." She said.

"Stop flirting Greek God and hurry up and get here, you needed to be here 2 minutes and 45 seconds ago." Zach said through our coms and I snickered as well Cammie seemed like a nice girl, but was definitely not my type. I would rather keep her as a friend and she seemed like Zach's type anyways. I guess his mother may have been right after all but we would be finding out soon enough anyways.

"We are here man, relax." I said back into my coms as we burst through the door and there was 3 men in between us and the van. Zach couldn't come out as it would completely blow is cover and he would never be able to return.

"You take those two and I have this one." Cammie said as she started ahead, obviously thinking of the best plan. However, at least if she could distract one I could deal with the other two and come back to help her. She had been in captivity so long, I wasn't sure if she was even trained and if she would have the energy to take that beefy guy down.

I kicked into action and had one guy down within a few seconds but the second guy was tougher and out of the corner of my eye I could see that Cammie was holding her own against her guy, but would need to outsmart him in order to defeat him. I finally got my guy in a choke hold and held on until I felt him pass out and then moved to help Cammie. But to my surprise she was sliding under him and then roundhouse kicked him in the back of the head and he was on the concrete passed out.

"Let's go!" I said as we ran to the van and I opened the back doors and we got in. Zach was there smirking at us as we entered in.

"Grant, the mission was for two Morgans not just one." Zach said as he shook his head at me, obviously unaware that Matthew had been shot.

"Well, when I got there, Matthew was already dead and this one was giving Catherine a run for her money." I replied as I didn't want Cammie to distrust us anymore than I knew she already did. And to find out the guy in front of her was the son of the woman who just killed her father probably wasn't the best idea.

"Okay, so Cameron, what happened? What was different today?" Zach asked as he looked deep into her eyes and I could tell he did care as she was now fatherless and it was his mothers fault. He always felt like it was his fault whenever something awful like this happened.

Cammie POV

This guy beside Grant stared at me as he asked his question. What was different? I honestly had no idea, all I could think of is that my father must have slipped up and that they would have a better chance with me than him. But did I want to tell him this? No. Would I be able to talk about the moments I lived just fifteen minutes ago where I watched the life drain from my own father right in front of me and all I did was watch? I had to, I had no choice. I spent years building up a wall to protect myself from emotional torture and in all these years, but this was the worst hour of my life.

"Well, I could tell something was different as Catherine looked more smug than normal. Once Steve wheeled my father in, I knew something bad was going to happen. I don't know what they have been doing to him as since we had been taken that was the second time I had seen him. She asked for the list again, as she did everyday and I said no. She told me to tell her or she would kill my father. I couldn't give her that information, I knew either way she would kill my father. So, I kept my ground but once I saw he was gone, I lost composure and knocked out Steve and went for Catherine. Thats around when Grant came in and you know the rest." I said, keeping my face as stone cold as I could, but it was hard keeping my eyes from tearing up as I kept seeing the images of my father dying right in front of me.

As I kept trying to keep my composure, I couldn't help myself but to stare at the boy across from me with emerald green eyes, they were captivating. Then again, I had been in captivity for 5 years and it's not like I got to see other people my age. But he was different from Grant, his eyes told me he knew pain but I wasn't sure what kind of pain.

"Okay, so Catherine never got the information she was after. Once we get to the CIA you will tell them everything that has happened over the last 5 years and then you will see your mother and we will have to find a safe place for you. And, just to clear the air I do apologize for my mothers behaviour and I am sorry for the loss of your father. I just want to be frank and my name is Zach." He said and I couldn't help myself, I began to fill with anger. I lost my father, but that woman has a son who is across from me who is alive and well. But, he did help me escape so I guess I should give him the benefit of the doubt, for now.

"Well Zach, I am sorry that is your mother.' I said as I continued to keep my face straight. Trying to not think about how enticing this boy in front of my was he was a rugged handsome, and I couldn't help myself from wanting to know more about him.

"Yah, me too." He replied as he half smiled and turned to the boy driving, who honestly hardly looked like he should be driving. "What's our ETA Jonas?"

"Well, approximately 5 hours, 45 minutes and 22 seconds as long as we don't hit any traffic." This one seemed a little dorkier than the other two. I could tell he was more book and tech smart which is probably why he was the one driving. "Oh, and by the way my name is Jonas." He said to me.

"Hi Jonas." I said as I smiled back at him.

"Just a question Cammie." Grant said as he looked at me and I nodded my head in response. "How is it that you were able to fight that guy off? Like I know you have spy parents as well but like you've been a prisoner for 5 years."

"Well Grant, I grew up sparring with my parents and aunt but they they did start training me as a spy as soon as I could walk. So, I just continued to work out and work on my skills with my limited interaction with people." I said as I shrugged it off, it really wasn't that impressive to me, I was sloppy and could have done way better if I had been able to continue my training.

"That makes sense, well if you need any pointers, I'm happy to help." Grant said as he smiled at me and slightly shoved me in the arm. Meanwhile Zach snickered and smirked across from us. God, that smirk was annoying but extremely attractive on him.

"As if, I would be more suited to help her catch up man." He said as he smirked which caused Grant to laugh.

"Whatever man, whatever. Cammie, if your tired you can take a nap if you like. As Jonas said, we are still 5 hours away." Grant said as I yawned.

"Ya okay, that might be a good idea." I said and even though the spy in me did not want to fall asleep near strangers, my body was giving me choice as I leaned across the van seats and went into a deep sleep.

There it is! Please let me know what you think!
