Chapter three- Preparing and Gadgets
I transported to the Equipment Room and looked around. The Equipment Room was one of my favorite rooms. It had all the technology that a person could ever imagine. Every agent came here before a mission to get all the technology and equipment that they needed for their mission. We usually didn't get to keep our items unless we did an extraordinary job, or if the officer in charge of the equipment decided to give it to us. That only happened when they invented something better to replace it. The Equipment Room was the same color as the main room of Headquarters, but instead of computers there were desks. Agents were talking with one another, while trying different gadgets.
I walked towards the center of the room, looking for a certain person. I scanned around me, seeing some familiar faces along with unfamiliar ones.
"Kairi!" I heard a male voice call.
I whizzed around towards the voice and saw Leon. Leon was an interesting guy, he was one of the gadget managers, so he gave you which gadgets you needed to your mission. he looked mean and rough on the outside with his semi-long brunette hair and his scars across his face. His big build didn't help either, but he was actually a really kind man that only a few people really got to know. Thankfully, I was one of them.
"Leon! Hey!" I smiled as I walked quickly towards him, stopping in front of him. "What have you been up to?" I asked him happily, rocking back and forth on the heel of my foot.
Leon chuckled, "Nothing but the usual, but I heard you got a mission! Aren't you working with that Roxas fellow?" he asked me as he put a finger to his chin.
I grumbled "Yes." I stated shortly.
Leon chuckled again, "Are you not fond of him?"
I rolled my eyes, "I don't even know him. It's just… I don't get why would Cloud put me on such an easy mission with another person! They usually save a two-person team for a live-threatening mission! I don't understand." I trailed off, trying to control my temper.
Leon shrugged, "You never know," He started walking towards a desk, I followed behind him, "It may be a harder mission that you think its going to be." He smiled at me. "Now, done to business, you need some gadgets for this mission, and I think I have just the right ones for you." He smiled as he pushed some buttons on the table, making it flip over to reveal a few objects.
"Oh," I laughed, looking at all the shiny objects in front of me, "What do we have here?" I asked, interested. I placed my elbows on the table and rested my chin in my hands, getting comfortable.
Leon smiled as he grabbed a silver pen; "This pen contains invisible thread that is about forty feet long. It will hold up to five hundred pounds without breaking." He handed me the pen carefully. I took it and studied it; it looked like a normal pen, what they can do with technology these days always surprises me.
"Here are some sunglasses that have some amazing features." Leon picked up a pair of large women's sunglasses.
"Oh! Those are cute!" I exclaimed as I studied them in Leon's hands.
"Yes, but they are not like the one's you would buy at the mall. No, these have multiple features," he put them down on the counter so both of us could see, "They can record anything you would like recorded without anybody noticing. All you have to do is push this button on the right side." He motioned to an almost invisible indent. "They also have night time vision to allow you to see in the dark. They can also see weapons located in peoples clothing or purses. Which is very useful when dealing with a gang I might add." He smiled at me.
I quickly glanced up at him, "How did you know what my mission was?" I pointed a finger at him.
He shrugged, "I get around." he smirked. "Now, for a weapon of your own, its just a simple taser, but you don't have to touch somebody to shock them. All you have to do is aim and they will fall to the ground, unconscious." he finished off, then picked up a very small device. "This," he turned towards me, showing me the small object about half the size of a dime, "is your communication device to communicate with Roxas. He'll have one exactly like it. It's for if you ever get separated." Leon spoke seriously.
I nodded showing him I understood; no matter how much I didn't like this Roxas kid, I still had to work with him. I had to make sure this mission was completed and successful.
"Well, kiddo, I think that's about all you need for this trip. Whatever you don't have I'll make sure Roxas gets it to you." Leon smiled, ruffling up my hair. I grimaced in annoyance.
"Alright, thanks Leon! See you later!" I waved as I made my way back to the transportation room. Let's get this mission over and done with.

I was now back at my house searching through the fridge, getting frustrated. "I know we had some cut up watermelon in here somewhere… where is it?" I asked myself as I pushed aside some yogurt. I growled as I shut the fridge in annoyance, "Dad must have eaten it." I blamed as I walked to the counter. I picked up the sandwich I had made and bit into it, thinking about the upcoming mission.
I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs. I stopped in mid-chew, it couldn't possibly be my parents, they weren't supposed to get back until late. I softly put my half-eaten sandwich down as I glided across the floor towards the stairs. The footsteps became louder and louder with each step, I mentally got ready to fight just in case. I heard the stranger hit the last stair and I could hear them coming towards the kitchen.
I took a deep breath, as I mentally counted down in my head. Three, two…one! I pounced on the blur of a person, shoving them to the floor, locking their arms to the ground. It took me a few seconds to realize who it was.
"Roxas?" I spat, taken back. I quickly got off of him, letting him have some space.
He sat up and rubbed his head, "Ow." He stated, then glared at me, "What's your problem? Do you kill everybody who comes to your house? I feel bad for your boyfriend." he snapped back, getting up, brushing himself off.
I glared up at him, "What are you doing in my house?" I questioned him, "How did you even find out where I lived?" I asked more to myself than to him.
Roxas smirked, "I have my ways," he simply stated as he walked around the corner into my kitchen.
"Hey! Don't go wandering around in my house!" I shouted at him, as I entered the kitchen as well. Roxas had is face in the fridge, clanking things around. I growled as I stomped over to the fridge. He ignored me as I got closer. I then slammed the fridge door into his head as hard as I could.
Roxas yelped in pain, "What in the world?" He came out of the fridge rubbing his head, giving me a look of disbelief. "Are you trying to give me a migraine or something? Geez, girl."
I crossed my arms as glared up at him, "If that's what it takes, I will pound for four inch dent in your head." I threatened, "And my name is Kairi, not girl. What are you even doing here?" I threw my hands up in the air.
Roxas rubbed his head again, "Do you always have so many questions? Geez, you're so annoying." he mumbled as he crossed his arms, "Cloud sent me to come get you," he finally informed me, "He wants us to leave right now."
I let out a breath, "Why…didn't…you…tell…me…that… before?!" I screamed at him, making him jump a little. I growled, "Just, come on." I grabbed his arm as I headed towards the stairs.
Roxas let out a small yell as I dragged him forward, "I now know why your hair is such a deep color red." He mumbled under his breath.
I smacked him on the side of the head.
"Ow."
I opened the door to my room and lead Roxas inside. I let go of his arm and opened my closet door, then turned to him and motioned him to go in.
Roxas gave me a questioning look.
I rolled my eyes, "Just get in, you child!" I motioned into my closet.
"Why do you want me to get into your closet?" he motioned to the closet looking a little nervous.
I made a sound of annoyance as I walked over to him and pushed him into my closet. I walked in after him then closed the door after me. I found the indent of wood as quickly as I could, I could feel Roxas's nervousness as he tried to stay as far away from me as possible. The computer came to life, "State your name." it spoke, I felt Roxas jump a little next to me.
"Kairi." I responded, "and guest," I quickly added. The computer scanned us over, "Well, Roxas," I started, "Lets get this over with." I finished as we got pushed upward towards Headquarters.
