I'm sorry - it's been a long time coming. I'm hoping to finish it soon! Thanks for sticking with me :)
I don't own any of the characters (other than Mrs Green and Senuro Ashleys!) :D
"You'll never guess what." said Rose, joining the others at the lunch table. "I've been profiling Mrs Green." She scattered the papers on the table. "Lucy Poppy Green. Born 1977 in Peru. Everything fits. She really is who she says she is."
"That's all very well, but I've been looking into her application and Oscar helped with CCTV." said Carrie. "By the time she applied by phone, yesterday, Frank had already left HQ. So nobody has checked her for her background or any relation to SKUL."
"So you think she's working with the enemy?" asked Rose.
"We know it." said Oscar, pulling out a SKUL radio from under the table. "I found this in her laptop case."
"What do SKUL want at St Hope's?" asked Rose.
"So far we've got a only a few ideas. All the basics."
"They know we're here, and we're MI9. They know there's a base and they want the information or they're looking for new recruits." listed Carrie.
"So that's our new priority then." said Rose. "We need to find out why SKUL are here. Oscar, you take surveillance. I'll use the spy-pod to check out SKUL's latest actions and Carrie I want you to analyse that phone conversation between Lucy and Mr Flatley."
"My computer skills are next to none!" complained Carrie.
"However you're more likely to be listening to an I-Pod in class than I am. You can do it, Carrie."
The trio departed as the lunch bell rang, watched unbeknown by Mrs Green. Carrie put her headphones in and sat at the back of maths, keeping a careful eye on Mr Thompson as he droned on about quadratic graphs. Oscar was missing from maths, keeping an eye on Mrs Green, whilst Rose was "working" in the library. It was soon the end of school and the trio met at the school gates.
"Nothing to report." said Oscar. "She was just teaching Spanish."
"The conversation was pretty average too," said Carrie. "I hope you found something."
"I did actually, look." Oscar and Carrie crowded around Rose's spy-pod where she had brought up an article written by MI9: SKUL AT SCHOOL?
"So they know there are agents here?" exclaimed Carrie. "Why didn't Frank tell us? Or at least tell Oscar! You can't come in tomorrow, until we sort this mess out."
"Why not?" exclaimed Oscar. "Its my job to cope with danger as much as it is yours."
"Carrie's right Oscar. You can work from home, but you can't come in. You're much more vulnerable to SKUL."
Oscar disappeared across the playground, out of the back gates and around the corner. Watching from the classroom window Mrs Green winced. They were on to her, but she had to get her hands on Oscar. There had to be a way.
Carrie and Rose turned up early the next day. Oscar was rejecting their calls on his communique, so Rose had left him messages of jobs that would help. Rose herself was going to attempt to access some SKUL files on their knowledge, or just dig deeper into how much MI9 knew of SKUL's knowledge. That left Carrie on surveillance. Rose went off to the library whilst Carrie went to class. Their first lesson was music, so Carrie didn't need to miss it. She kept a careful eye on Mrs Green all lesson, and at the end offered to help move the equipment to her next class. Everything seem to go well, despite losing sight of Mrs Green once on the way from one room to another, but she was in the classroom when Carrie turned up. Despite Stark's recent criticism of her surveillance skills she felt quite proud. That was, of course, until breaktime.
Rose had arranged to meet Carrie on the picnic bench where they sat in the Summer. It was empty when Carrie arrived, but she assumed Rose was just late. When Rose didn't show ten minutes later, Carrie bent down to pick up her bag and head back to lesson. Under the table she noticed a note stuck to the underside. She opened it carefully and read the message in horror:
7 Merseyside Street. After school or Rose will not see tomorrow. Mrs Green.
P.S. Let's make it a team effort, eh Carrie?
Please R&R! :D
