The sun shone brightly into my room as I opened my eyes. I heard a small bird singing outside, feeling confused I looked outside and saw the baby bird singing happily. I reached for my gun and pulled the trigger, hitting directly at the bird. "looks like I missed one." I gave a tired yawn and went to the bathroom. I turned on a cold shower and let the blood wash off me from the day before. I quickly changed into my disguise and carefully placed each of my weapons in the right places. I was also given hair and make up supplies with a note,{you gotta look pretty, kat!} "Hale!" I breathed frustratingly. I opened up the bag to find straighteners and a small bag of makeup. I carfully did my straightened my hair and put it into a sleek pony tail. Then I added an appropriate amount of makeup. I looked into the mirror, disgusted at my disguise.
I slung my backpack over one shoulder and walked outside the mansion to find Hale waiting by an expensive looking jet. I ran towards him and I stopped in front of him. He nimbly took out his knife and swept it across the back of my head. I stood looking surprised as I felt the bobble snap and my hair fall down my back and shoulders. "you look better with your hair down, Kat!" Hale said grinning. I glared at him as he went up onto the jet. I followed behind. We were probably on the jet for an hour or so before I decided to talk. "hey,Hale? Wont it be weird for two random students to arrive in the middle of a school year in an expensive jet?" I asked. Hale looked my way and replied "well its all about presentation, basically we are both 15 year olds who happen to be friends from America and we came here on the same jet to study at a posh school." "are we saying any other background information?" I continued. "erm, only our names and age. Everything else can be made up as we go along. Oh plus, the boss gave us these little tags that are kinda like a mobile phone, you just press this button and speak." Hale handed me a small tag and I clipped it to my collar. "okay, got it." I replied confidently. Soon after the jet started to descend towards the school. We landed on top of the tarmac.
I glanced quickly at Hale before plastering a fake smile on my face and slinging my bag on my back. We walked down the steps to where a tall women stood with a smilng man and a confident looking girl next to them. We walked towards them smiling happily as the woman extended a hand."hello, you to must be the students from America? Er, Hale and Kat?" I took the hand and shook it gently as I spoke. "yes, thank you very much for letting us be a part of your wonderful academy!" Hale smiled and shook the mans hand as he spoke. "yes, we are sorry for imposing half way through the academic year but we promise to try our best in our time here." The couple smiled warmly at us and started "thank you very much, this is our head pupil, Laura, she is here to show you to your rooms." Then the girl stepped forward and smiled at us. "thank you head teacher. Hale, Kat if you could follow me please." Laura turned and started walking towards a large pair of doors. Hale looked at me quickly and grinned. We followed keeping at a safe distance.
"here are your rooms!" Laura said happily while pointing to the two rooms facing each other at the end of a corridor. "thank you very much laura!" Hale said with a kind smile as he swiped his card into the door. I did the same with mine and stepped inside my room. as soon as I heard Hale's door shut I pressed the button on my tag " Hale, meet me outside the rooms in five mins." "Affirmative." Hale replied.
I dragged my suitcase over to the lone bed and opened it up. I searched the room for any cameras or bugs that had been used, once Iyt came up clean I looked for any good storage places for my things. Looking around I saw a small cabinet hidden under the counter. I opened it up and started to put my weapons in there. My mental clock chimed as the five minutes finished. I stood up and brushed myself off. Then I walked to my door and stepped into the corridor. Hale stood leaning against the doorway. "my room is secure, yours?" he whispered. "yup, all clear." "great, so lets head off down to history then!" said Hale excitedly. I quickly pulled out a picture from my top pocket and studied it. "so this is him?" I asked not even surprised at how Hale had slipped it in there with out my realising it. "yup, Shane Roden." Hale replied. I nodded as we strolled down the corridor, the blue prints of the building still fresh in my mind abled us to casually go where ever we wanted without looking out of place.
We reached a blue door and read {history hr2 Mr Simons} I knocked on the door and opened it gently. "exscuse us for interrupting, Mr Simons, but we have just arrived in school and would like to join this class." I said politely flashing him a smile. The door had been covering us up from that point but as we stepped in, just as mine had done, I felt Hale stiffen up as his enses went on alert with twenty pairs of eyes widening at us. I gazed around noticing all of the boys who were slumped, sat up staring at me, all of the girls who were secretly texting under the table, started messing with their hair and pouting towards Hale. Mr Simons started talking "of course, welcome to Dunbridge Acadamy, please take a seat. My eyes surveyed the classroom until I locked eyes with the reason we were here, I walked over and sat quietly in the empty seat next to a boy I had a picture of in my pocket. Hale, ignoring the girl's silent pleas came and sat next to me, whispering "well done." Mr Simons talked on about the civil war, but me and Hale knew enough about that to teach the class, so I turned to my left and smiled calmly at my target. "hello there, im Kat, whats your name?" I cocked my head to one side making my long black hair fall down one shoulder. "me?" he replied blushing a little. "um, yeah?" I replied and giggled. " heh, erm, im Shane, nice to meet you, Kat?" Shane said growing a little flustered. "nice name, Shane, have you met my good friend Hale?" I turned and nudged Hale who turned obediently to look at Shane. "nice to meet you!" Hale said. Shane smiled nervously. Then turned back to look at Mr Simons. I turned back to Hale and whispered "can we swap characters? I don't like mine." He grinned and whispered "tough."
