I woke up. I was being carried in Carter's arms. He and Kelly were talking. "He just saw his brother and sister die. He isn't going to be alright." Kelly said. "He has no one else. The force should take him. He has good reflexes. We could use a guy like him." Carter said. "But he's just a kid! He could get hurt!" Kelly said worried.

I forced myself out of Carter's arms. "Who was that!" I shouted. Carter and Kelly looked at me shocked. "Logan. That was what we were trying to protect you from." Kelly said. "I don't need protection! I need to know why that thing killed my sister!" I shouted. "We will explain everything to you later. We need to get you out of here. The police are looking for you! They think you started the fire." Carter said. I agreed and we walked to an open field. Just then a stealth black hawk came down. It made little noise. We got on the helicopter and it took off. It was fairly nice inside. The interior had been custom made.

The helicopter took us to an airport where we got on a private plane. I was still shook up from what happened. Kelly made me some hot cocoa. And we talked about everything that happened. "Ok. We are taking you to a place that you will be safe." Carter said. "We haven't told you why you are here," Kelly said. "We are a secret organization called Recon Assassins. We protect the entire world from dangerous men and women that could harm the past present and future." Kelly said. " you don't know it, but all the myths of all these horrible people and time travel are real. We are working on getting time travel right, and we need your help." "Wait but why do you need my help" I said. Just then Kelly took something out of her backpack right next to her seat. It was my laptop. "We know that you are good with coding. Considering you hacked into our database." Kelly said. "Oh shit. I'm sorry. I added the codes to my game. I didn't know they were an exact match to yours." I said. "Its alright Logan." Carter said. "Your record has been cleared." "Oh. Ok," I said. "So you think I could be able to join the RA?" "Yes. You have the potential to do it." Kelly said. "If you join, we can help you avenge your brother and sister's deaths." "You will?" I asked. "Wait a minute. What's the catch? What do you want in return."

"It's simple Logan." Carter said. "You help us by killing a few people, and we'll help you." "wait a minute!" I shouted. "Nobody said anything about killing anyone!" I looked at Kelly and gave her a 'He's Joking!' kind of look. She shook her head as in telling me that he was speaking the truth. I sighed. "Okay. Ill help you." I said.

"Splendid! Your training starts in a week." carter replied.

"Ms. Rider. We are thirty minutes out from our landing zone." the pilot said on the intercom. "Thank you!" Kelly replied. "Ok. Carter get your things. Logan. Here." she said as she gave me a backpack. "What's in it?" I asked. "Everything you need." she said. "I got some things from your room that weren't destroyed. Oh! Which reminds me! Is this yours?" she handed me my knife that I lost. "where did you find it?" I asked. "I snatched it before the police took it for evidence." she replied. I thanked her and put it in my bag.

We talked about what the Recon Assassins do and what their objective is. Eventually, the plane landed. I had no idea where we were. "Welcome to RA Headquarters." Carter said. "We can't tell you exactly where we are." "I kind of figured that." I said. As we got off the plane there were guards everywhere with SCAR-H assault rifles. We went into a building and got on a train. It took us into the ground and into a huge underground city. "This is your new home Logan." Kelly said. I barely heard her. I was staring at the city in amazement. It looked like an actual city. There were skyscrapers, houses, apartments, all kinds of buildings. And there was some kind of computer projected sky all around the city. I realized it was a glass dome, that was miles beneath the earth's surface. I could see people in the city. There were men, women, and kids of all ages. I saw a giant farm in the distance that had water, and crops growing, and livestock.

When we got off the train we left the station. There was a limo waiting for us there. We got inside and the driver took us to a building in the middle of the city. We went into the building and there I met the Commander of the Recon Assassins.

"Sir. We have the boy." Carter said. The commander turned to us. He was 6'8". he had all white clothes on. He had a jacket that had a hood on it just like Kelly's except it had the RA logo on it and a few other patches. He had black hair, but you could tell he was going grey. He looked like he was about 48. "Welcome Logan." he said with a warm voice. I could tell he was very nice. "I am sorry about your brother and sister." "Thank you sir." I said. "Please. Call me Jack. I don't like being called sir." he said. "Oh." I said. "Sorry." Then Kelly walked in. "Hello Sweetheart." Jack said. Immediately my eyes went wide. "Sweetheart?" I thought. "Hi Dad." Kelly replied. "How did your mission go?" Jack said. "we succeeded. There were no problems with getting Logan here. Besides that his brother and sister are gone." she said. "He got away from us one time. And I have to say. He is very good at fighting, and he has perfect reflexes dad. We could use him on the force."

"is that so?" Jack said. "Tell me son. Will you help us if we help you?" he said looking at me. "I would be honored to join. But there's a problem. I have nowhere else to go." I replied. "Nonsense!" he said laughing. "Everyone in this city is your family. And I'm pretty sure I can make some arrangements for you to have a place to stay." "Thank you Jack." I said. "Kelly. For the time being can you keep an eye on him?" Jack said. "Of course dad. And I'm pretty sure that Trent would be ok with it." Kelly replied. "Very well." he said. He handed me a key. " this is the key to your new place. It has been furnished already. Just open the door."

"thanks Jack." I said. Kelly and I turned and walked out the door. We walked out the building and the limo was there to pick us up. We got in the limo and the driver took us to Kelly's house. It was a mansion. "Logan. Your new home is the guest house. Its right next door to mine and my husband's house. I turned and looked at the guest house. It was very nice. I walked to the door of the guest house and put the key in. I unlocked it and walked in. the inside was beautiful. It had a lot of space in it. I was amazed at how much room there was. The main door opened into a giant living room. It had white carpet and dark blue walls. There was a 60" TV and a very nice white couch. The walls were decorated with paintings, swords, daggers, and Egyptian fans crossing over a door. The kitchen was very nice. It had tile flooring with granite countertops, a stainless steel fridge, stove, and an overhanging microwave. There were twelve cabinets. Each stocked with appliances, spices, plates, glasses, bowls, etc. there were three bedrooms. They were all very nice including the master bedroom. It had a huge king size bed that had red bedding with the RA logo on it. The rest of the house was magnificent. "Thank you Kelly! I really appreciate it." I said. "Your welcome Logan. You can do whatever you want you can come to the house anytime you want. Anything on the place you can use. There is a pool in the back of the main house. You can swim there anytime you like. And you can use the sports center and the game room in the basement anytime too." she said. "You are part of the family now." I hugged her. She smiled and hugged me back. "I am also somewhat of your legal guardian," she added. "Ok." I said. "Ok. Come on. Dinner is in an hour. And there's some people that I want you to meet." she said as we walked out the door. We went to the main house. Kelly walked inside, I followed. "Kids! Come down here! There's someone here I want you to meet. All at once three kids came down a large flight of stairs. All different ages. "Kids. This is Logan. He is going to be living in the guest house." Kelly said. "Hi Logan! The middle child said. "My name's Snow." she said. She was my age. She had blonde hair like Kelly's. She was very pretty. "What's up Logan." the Older kid said. He was about 16. He had blonde hair. He was a lot taller than me. "I'm Dustin." "and I'm Riley!" the youngest said. She was about three years old. "Nice to meet you all." I said.

"Kids, can you take Logan down to the game room?" Kelly said. "Sure mom. Come on Logan! Lets go!" Snow said as she grabbed my hand and almost dragged me down to the basement. Dustin followed us downstairs. Dustin and Snow played Call of Duty on an Xbox. I just watched. I then took out my knife and stared at it. I started having flashbacks about Thomas and Chloe. Why would someone kill them? What did they do? Then Snow noticed that I was distracted. She sat next to me. "We heard about what happened to your brother and sister." she said. "Our mom told us not to talk about it much." "It's ok. I'm just still a little shocked about it. They were killed yesterday. On my birthday." I said. "We also found that out and we got you a present!" Snow replied. She ran into a room that had a dog in it and took out a pure white puppy. It was a wolf pup. "Our dog Mika just had puppies. And mom thought you could have one since we need to give them homes." she said. "Thank you so much Snow!" I said. She gave me the pup. It was very soft. He looked at me and licked my face. I pet him. "What are you going to name him?" Snow asked. "I think I'll name him Scamper." I said. "that's a good name." she said.

We were called up for dinner. There I met Trent, Kelly's husband. He was very nice. We ate dinner and then I said goodbye to everyone. I then went to the guest house with Scamper. I gave him food and water. And I let him outside before he followed me up to my room. I slept in the master bedroom. Scamper jumped up on the bed and rested right next to me. We both fell asleep peacefully. I was going to like it here.
