"we don't know he's dead right?"I asked them.
"no, we don't."James said. I suddenly felt and urge of energy run through me.
"Lets do it."I said slowly.
"do what?" Finola asked. James smiled at me.
"find her Dad." James said.
"ok guys mind telling
me whats going on here."Paige asked noticing James and I were
smiling.
"we're going to be cops junior cops but we're going
to find April's dad." James replied.
"so we're going under cover?"Hayden and Finola asked at the same time. It was their dream to actually go on a mission and maybe we weren't cut out for this yet, maybe we needed a few more fake missions but right now we were just going to have to ditch the rules we were on our own.
"not just undercover we're going on a mission."I said. We decided to take a train to the shop my dad used to go to get his equipment, the police here had to get their own gear. where every one else got their gear was from a cheap shop round the corner but my dad took his job seriously. We ran to the train station. .We got on just in time. I sat down by the window and remembered 11 o'clock last night. I woke up because of the noise the cars were making. I saw dad through the window heading towards the park across the road and Diego following behind. I thought oh whatever their probably just talking being friendly you know. But why would they be friendly they were the worst of enemies because Diego was crushing on Mum and totally trying to get Dad and her to break up. I was to sleepy to care I thought what could he do? I guess he could do a lot, a lot more then I could ever imagine. A tear prickled down my face. James put his arm around me to comfort me. I thought about how Dad always used to take me for walks in the park since I was three and he still did before last night that is. The walks would be our special time. It was our father and daughter time where we would talk about anything. It was our stop and I couldn't wait to start investigating.We had to walk about 6 blocks from the train station then a few streets. It was a busy street so busy that it never stoop out and I guess that was the whole point, they got their customers by internet. They supply stuff for cops in Miami and all the big crime cities. I came here with my dad very rarely but it always made me feel like I came there every single day.
"Hey Martin."I said as I saw him behind the computer.
"Hey April what's up have you been crying."Martin asked. He obviously haven't heard about Dad.
"yeah dads gone missing though the cops told us he was dead but the cops arn't any help in this city are they."I said dryly.
"what. No way and you must be feeling horrible come on come up to my room guys I'll get you some drinks and we can talk."Martin said as he led us upstairs. This was one of the things I loved about Martin he could just make you feel better all of the sudden. We sat on the coach in his room and drank our cokes.
"umm…. Martin I was thinking actually we were thinking on going to find out where mmy dad was."I said .
'ahhhhhh……… you're a determent one aren't you April and you want me to help you?"Martin asked.
"yes."I said hoping he wouldn't say no it was too dangerous for us and all that lectures we get from other adults.
"I'll help you but I'm going to need a lot of your time."Martin said.
"ok anything to get you to help us."I said. Knowing Martin was going to help us was like getting lost in the city but realizing you had your mobile with you. Martin led us back down to the store to show us all the spy gear.
"so who do are your suspect." he asked. I knew it was a trick question.
"suspect everyone."I said.
"even your closes family." James said.
"never trust anyone." Hayden said.
"ever." Paige said.
"and never let your guard down not even for one second." Finola finished off.
"your Dad sure did train you lot well." Martin said clearly impressed. I told Martin what happen last night.
"so your prime suspect is Diego and his gang." Martin said. I nodded.
