Monday started off badly. Tony had slept over at their house the entire weekend, and the very fact that he and Jack were so close drove him insane. Tony had offered to drive Alex to school, and when Alex had tried to say no, Jack gave him a look that told him he should accept.

"So, Alex, we haven't exactly gotten to know each other yet, and I think it's time we did. Jack told me that you seem to have a week immune system, so you are always away from school. What do you have to say to that?" Tony asked as they got into the car.

"Umm, well it's not exactly my fault, it's just the way I am." Alex decided he should tread carefully around Tony. Any slip up could mean death.

"Well I hope you don't miss school while I'm there." Tony said lamely.

"I'm gonna have to get rid of him." Alex told his best friend Tom. It was the beginning of PE. Tom had helped Alex avoid Jennifer while also avoiding Tony. It was difficult, but he didn't think he could deal with either.

"You're gonna kill him???" Tom asked with bewilderment

"No you idiot! I just have to help him realize that it is a bad idea to mess with me." Alex turned as the principal walked into the change room. When confused stares swept over everyone's faces, the principal started delivering his message.

"Class, I have very unfortunate news, Mr. Henderson has taken ill and is in the hospital right now," As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Alex felt severe dread course through him, "and is not likely to be coming back this term. So taking his place and a new addition to our staff, please welcome, Tony Haingar."

Tony was in the gym office, thinking about the class that he was going to teach in less then thirty minutes. Alex was going to be in there. He wasn't sure if that was a good or bad thing. Tony though back to when it was a while after he started dating Jack. He had thought it was weird that she was raising this kid who she had no obligation to, but he was a grown kid, so it didn't matter. He had been working for SCORPIA, but he hadn't heard from them for a while, and only after they found out whom he was dating did they contact him.

"So what's this all about? I am allowed to date whomever I want." Tony said to his superior in SCORPIA

"It's not about who she is, it's about the kid." The man replied in gravelly voice

"Alex? Why? He's just a normal kid."

"A kid, yes, normal, definitely not." The man continued, "MI6 have used him before. And once they find out about some of our plans, they are going to use him again to foil them." He tossed a file onto the desk for Tony to look at. It contained everything about him. Every mission he went on, every time he was hospitalized, everything.

"But, he's only a kid." Tony said in disbelief.

"Does he honestly seem to be a normal child to you??

Tony didn't reply.

"We're going to have to bug the house. You have a new assignment. We want him dead by the end of the month."

Tony had no clue how he was going to do this. He actually did like Jack, but he knew if he didn't complete his mission, they would have him killed by the end of the month. He remembered the overwhelming surprise he felt when he read about Alex Rider. He felt almost pity. What right does MI6 have to do this? He thought to himself.

Alex did his best to hide behind Tom as Tony walked into the room. He knew that Mr. Henderson didn't just randomly need to be hospitalized. Tony obviously had something to do with it.

"Good morning class, how are you all this fine morning?"

A few people muttered that they were good; no one liked how he was so cheery.

After the announcements when everyone was in the gym, sitting and chatting, Tony started taking attendance.

"Jason, Tom, Andrew, Riley," There were subtle answers such as here or present as Tony went through the list of names "Zack, Alex Rider…" Tony paused briefly to examine the boy. It was as if he was trying to read him. Alex just stared back. Alex knew Tony knew who he was, and he was guessing that Tony had a feeling that Alex knew Tony knew. This is going to be a bad week. Alex thought. He just knew it.

It was lunch time, but Alex decided he wasn't very hungry. He was worried sick about Jack, and was trying to create a plan to scare off Tony. Alex was walking down the hall lost in his thoughts, when he nearly bumped into someone.

"Hello Alex, you should be more attentive when wandering around the school. I'm sure your good at that. Being attentive." It was Tony. Alex didn't say anything. Anyone who would have witnessed this scene would say that Alex was just glaring at Tony, warning him with his eyes. But the truth was that Alex honestly didn't know what to say. The moment was broken when Jennifer and Tom came clambering down the hall.

"Alex!! I need to talk to you!!" Tom yelled. He stopped short when he saw Tony. "Mr. Hangair." He nodded, before pulling Alex away

"I'll see you after school Alex." Tony said in a sort of menacing kind of way.

"What is it guys?" Alex asked.

Tom calmed right down, "Actually, it's really nothing. It looked as if you two wanted to eat each other alive, we thought we'd but in."

"What's the deal with that teacher anyways?" Jennifer asked.

"Well," Alex didn't know what to tell her, now that things were getting dangerous for anyone involved with him again, he didn't want to get her involved. So he told her the truth, "Tony and Jack are going to get married." Ok so it wasn't the whole truth, but it was enough.

"Oh okay. Well is that really a big problem?" she asked.

"It is when he hates you." Alex said quietly

When Alex got home, he knew something bad was going to happen. Tony had gotten there earlier then him, somehow, and he was just sitting on the couch staring at him. Alex played innocent.

"Hey Tony, how was your first day." He said it as if they didn't even see each other at school. Alex dropped his bag on the floor, and went to grab an apple from the kitchen. Tony still hadn't said anything. This is actually kind of freaking me out. Alex thought to himself.

For the next hour, Alex tried in vain to ignore Tony. He worked on some lame homework that made no sense, played his Nintendo DS for a bit; he even started to tidy the place up. But every time he was near Tony, he felt his eyes burning into him. Finally he broke,

"Ok, seriously, what's your deal?" Alex sat on the sofa across from Tony. Tony just kept staring, so Alex decided to play Tony's little game. They stared at each other for about twenty minutes. For most people this would be uncomfortable and just downright weird. But Alex wanted Tony to speak first.

"They say eye's are mirror's of the soul. If that's true, then you must be a very lonely boy full of dark secrets." Tony said finally.

"If that's true," Alex started, "Then you must be a very evil man who's going to die a very painful death."

"Is that a threat?"

"Are you threatened?"

"That depends,"

"On what?" Alex prompted

"Are you dangerous?" Tony continued

"Only to those who are a danger to my friends and family."

"Is that so?" Tony was now standing, slowly moving closer to Alex.

"It is, and many people have learned that lesson first hand." Alex was also standing. They were about a foot away from each other, glaring with pure hatred and disgust.

And that was when it happened. Alex didn't realize what he was doing, he just knew that this man was dangerous, and he lashed out. He went for a kick in the abdomen, which Tony easily blocked. He hadn't realized this before but apparently Tony was better then him when it came to fighting. Maybe he was just getting rusty. Tony managed to get in a punch to the face, but while he was doing that, Alex kicked him in the knee hard enough to make him buckle. But Tony quickly recovered. It turned out that it was a well-matched fight. Alex jabbed, Tony blocked, Tony kicked, Alex blocked. They both had fresh bruises. There was blood streaming down the side of Alex's head, and from his nose. Tony didn't look so good either. But then the tables turned in Tony's favor. He managed a kick to Alex's chest, which sent searing pain throughout his body. Why there? Alex thought as he was crumpled on the floor. Tony must have known about his old bullet wound. And even though it had been two years, it still restricted things that he could do. The kick was hard enough that Alex couldn't move, a single tear mixed with Alex's blood.

Before he knew it, Alex felt Tony's strong hands gripped around his throat. There was a whisper in his ear.

"If you tell anybody I will not only kill Jack, Tom, and Jennifer. But I will make you watch them bleed to death. One by one." Alex could feel the grip getting tighter. Black dots were swimming around him, and he was trying to find a source of air. This is it. He's gonna kill me. Alex was getting ready to die. That was when the door opened.

"What the hell is going on??!!" Jack yelled.

haha sorry about that, i had to get Alex out of this situation, and sorry it's kinda short. please review
