"Cam, if you don't wake up this instant, I will get Bex to drop a gallon of ice cold water she just filled up on you." Macey threatened. I sat straight up, wide awake.
"I'm up, I'm up. Gosh, way too early in the morning to have a wakeup call." I said groaning and stretching. Liz was in the shower and Bex was doing her hair, straightening it into a pony tail. Liz scampered out of the shower with a towel wrapped around her.
"Your turn Cammie. Hurry up! We got to get going." Liz squeaked, freezing cold.
I rolled out of bed and stumbled into the shower. I was so not a morning person. After my shower, I found clothes laid out on my bed. A mini shirt and a tank top; who did Macey think I was?
"Yo Macey, so not wearing this. I am fully capable of picking out my own outfit." I called to her in the closet.
"Why, you'd look hot in." She called back.
"I don't need to look hot. That's your job." I retorted. I joined Liz, Bex, and Macey in the closet and decided what I was going to wear. I grabbed a pair of True Religion jeans and a purple SugarLips tank top. Macey rolled her eyes. I got dressed and blow dried my hair. Bex French braided my hair for me because I had extreme difficulty with it and grabbed my sneakers.
"I grabbed breakfast for you guys quickly." Liz told us, holding out a tray of pastries. I grabbed one, but Bex grabbed three and shoved them in her mouth.
"Thanks Lizzie." Bex said with her mouth full, spitting out parts of her breakfast. Macey looked away in disgust.
"God Bex, chew first and don't talk with your mouth full." She muttered.
"Okay Madame Dabney." Bex snapped back.
"Shut it wise ass." Macey retorted. I rolled my eyes; we always bicker considering we are like sisters, which probably explain it all.
"Ugh, guys just get going. You are going to be late." Liz said, ushering us out of the room with a bickering Macey and Bex. My mind was somewhere else. I had to get into my mom's office to find information and I was also thinking about today and what we are going to be doing today.
Covert Operations was my favorite subject and Mr. Solomon is my favorite teacher. He was also my dad's best friend, I also knew him personally, but in some cases, isn't the best. We got to the front steps with exactly 27 seconds to spare to find a waiting Mr. Solomon.
"Good day ladies. Ready for today's activity?" He asked. We nodded. "Well good, because it's not easy and you must be prepared."
We looked at each other puzzled. He was really not telling us anything about it. The rest of the girls arrived just on time and we went over to the side of the building where the helicopter landing pad was.
"Climb in ladies." He gestured to go into the helicopter and he followed us. We took seats at the beginning of the chopper so we could hear everything and get a good idea on what the scenery. Joe Solomon stood in front of the whole class, waiting for the whispers to stop. It was quiet almost immediately.
"So I know you girls are all wondering what we are doing today." He started. We nodded, "But the most important question right now is where we are going."
"Ms. Alverez, why is that important?" He asked.
"So we know our surroundings and land that we will be working in." She rattled off.
"Yes, good, all of you should know that by now, so when I give the pop quiz, I expect you all to ace it." I raised my hand.
"Yes Ms. Morgan."
"So where exactly are we going?"
"Excellent question. I'm surprised none of you asked that earlier. We are going to Boston, MA." He got blank stares from everyone. Bex raised her hand
"Ms. Baxter."
"Why Boston?" She asked.
"Why not?" He countered. She shrugged. I chuckled. Who cares that we are going to Boston. We have never been there for anything school related. I can tell we are almost there because the chopper is descending.
"Where exactly are we landing?" Mick Morrison asked.
"Children's Hospital." He replied. What?
"We are going to be repelling down the wall to get down." He said. "And once we are on the ground, we are going to start our mission."
"Which is…?" Courtney asked. Good question.
"The objective is to spot all the agents and operatives in the field." He replied.
"Are these agents on an actual mission?" I asked. This might actually be a cool assignment.
"Yup, sorry I can't tell you what it is, but the Agency is allowing you to tail these operatives. Keep in mind that they are on the lookout for targets and you don't want to look like one." He told us seriously, "And, it looks like we are here. Take the comms and cameras and repelling equipment and be back here in six hours.
Bonjour amis! How is everything! Well, I hope you like this chapter and there's more to come. Like I said, desperately in need of suggestions and criticism. Feel free to let me know. Later chicas!
