Chapter 2
Zach didn't want to say that the funeral was beautiful, because it was his Gallagher Girl's funeral. He still couldn't believe that someone could just walk out of another person's life, without a goodbye. This was going to be Cam's last mission, she had promised him. After this, they were both going to stop working for the CIA and start a family, away from their spy world. Cammie had already agreed to marry him. He didn't understand what about this mission had been so important that she absolutely had to go. But she said that she had to so he let her. How stupid he had been to let her slip from his grasp. He looked over at Bex, she was sobbing so hard, Grant almost had to take her from the room. Macey came over to Zach,
"Hey, Zach. We all miss her you know? I know this is really hard on you, because it's hard on all of us. But, hey, we have each other don't we? I mean you wouldn't dream of leaving us alone would you?" Zach shook his head. How could he? He knew they needed him as much as he needed them. Zach looked around and all he saw was sadness. He couldn't go into the room where Cam's body was laid out. Bex had come over to him, and was dragging him into that room though.
"To say goodbye." She had told him. Cammie was laying in the casket in her blue satin dress, and red roses around her, her lips downturned in a frown, which was so different from in life. Zach wanted to reach out and touch her, to have her suddenly take a breath and say "Hey everybody! Let's get out of here?" but she didn't. Zach took in all of her features, this was the last time he was ever going to see her. Liz came and stood next to him, she couldn't stop whispering, that everything was going to be okay, that Cammie was in a better place, and that they would see her again. Zach hugged her, because he felt so bad. He just let Liz cry on him for a while. Jonas came over and took her back to their apartment because she had cried herself to sleep. Zach realized that he was all alone in the room with Cam. Well, Cam's body. Cammie spirit was where it always was, in his heart, in his soul. He walked up to her casket, and was about to close it, when he saw that the engagement ring he had given her wasn't on her finger.
"This is odd. She never took it off." He looked closer at her face, and saw that just below her hairline, was a surgical mark, indicating that this girl had probably had plastic surgery. Cammie had never in her life had plastic surgery, and upon closer examination, this wasn't Cammie. This body in the casket, was made to look like her, but it wasn't her. Zach resolved to find out what was going on.
