Alright guys. I don't have a valid reason for not updating sooner. I'm busy, but I do have down time. I usually use that down time to watch TV or something.
Anyways…here's the next chapter! My apologies for not being as great as Ally Carter (who is the only person that holds ownership over these characters and the series).
Cammie POV
Figuring out a plan to get into Sublevel One wasn't the hard part. After all, when you have a group of four geniuses, plans tend to come easily. The problem is always working out the kinks in the plans. Sometimes we like to overestimate our abilities.
"So why don't we just jump?" Bex asked, trying to find a way to get into the subs after we climb through the elevator.
"Uhh…we'd die, but I guess we could try" Macey replied.
There you go. Apparently we are now immortal beings who can safely land a fifty foot drop.
"Okay guys. So we have the cables and we have-" I was cut short by someone yanking me up from my comfy little spot in an old classroom.
"Ladies come with me," Professor Buckingham said as she released me from her grasp. We all shared a glance. This was seriously NOT good.
"So why were you messing with the elevators Macey?" she asked as we walked. Macey just froze.
"Um I-"
"No sense lying, dear," Buckingham cut in. "Everything is on camera."
Macey looked like a deer caught in the headlights. I felt kind of bad for her. I know how it feels to get caught by someone who taught you how to not get caught.
"I just wanted to see what I could get away with," Macey tried.
Professor Buckingham obviously didn't believe her because she rolled her eyes and snapped, "I said don't lie!"
"Okay, but they had nothing to do with it," Macey said, pointing to Liz, Bex, and me.
"Very well. If you three wouldn't mind leaving us alone to chat…" Professor Buckingham half asked, half commanded. The three of us quickly retreated, giving Macey apologetic looks.
"Well I certainly wouldn't want to be her right now," Bex grumbled as soon as we were out of earshot.
"Yeah. What if she, you know, gets suspended? Or even kicked out?" Liz freaked.
"Liz, she isn't going to get kicked out. She technically didn't even do anything harmful except for lock Mr. Solomon in the subs," I said. She seemed to relax a little, but soon tensed up again.
"What is it Liz-" Bex began to ask, but was soon cut off by Liz shushing her with eyes as wide as the moon. Bex and I looked over to where Liz was staring and saw something that made me feel a little uncomfortable. And nauseous. And dreadful. And, well, you get it.
My aunt Abby was kissing Agent Townsend! And she was enjoying it! Ew ew ew ew!
"Holy shit!" Bex yelled. I was just about to tell her to shut up, but Abby and Townsend turned to look at us.
"Oh hey girls," Abby said. Then they walked away, leaving us standing there to process what we had just seen.
"I knew it!" Liz screeched. She was now grinning from ear to ear. I looked over at Bex and saw that she was happy too. It must be a niece thing to freak out when your aunt is kissing someone, no matter how much you want the two to be together.
"Now we just need to get on your mom and Solomon," Bex said to me. I mentally prepared myself for what would come next.
