Chapter 4- Bird Kids and Boys

"Welcome back, or welcome to Gallagher as the case may be. This year, there are two things I wish to announce. First off, I want you to welcome Tyler, Max, and Nudge. Second, please welcome back the boys of Blackthorne Institute." Headmistress Morgan said after the pledge.

Cammie's head shot up. She stared at Bex. "He'll be here," she said.

"Who? Your Boyfriend?" I asked.

"Not my boyfriend. I don't like Zach like that anymore, but if he's here it'll only make my life complicated."

That was when the doors opened and about twenty boys all about my age walked in.

"We will be doing introductions differently this year," Headmistress Morgan said. "Since all these boys are in the Junior class, we'll have all the Junior girls come up and introduce themselves. Then the boys will go. Say your name, track, and codename. Cammie, you start."

All twenty of us walked up to the stage. Cammie stepped up to the mike.

"Hey, I'm Cammie. I'm in the field track, and my codename's Chameleon."

"Name's Bex. I'm field track. Codename's Duchess."

"Hi, I'm Liz. I'm in the research and Development track. My codename is Bookworm."

"I'm Macey. Yes, the senator's daughter. I'm in the field track, and my codename's Peacock. If you call me that you will die."

The rest of the introductions were short.

"Tina, field, Snapshot."

"Eva, field, Princess."

"Jessie, field, Thunderstorm."

"Anna, field, Willow."

"Korey, field, M 'n'M."

"Emma, R&D, Peanut. I'm Korey's twin."

"Sierra, field, Star."

"Mick, field, Cougar."

"Sara, R&D, Polkadot."

"Lisa, field, Firetop." Lisa had this gorgeous red hair that was probably the cause of her codename.

"Jaci, field, Crystal."

'Cassidy, field, Filly."

"Hannah, field, Banana."

Then came us, the two newest Juniors.

"My name's Maximum, but if you know what's good for you, you'll call me Max. I'm new so I don't know what the hack a track is. And let's see...codename...I got it. I'll be Eagle."

"Hey, m'name's Tyler. I'm new too. My codename'll be Tiger."

The first boy stepped up to the microphone.

"Hey, I'm Grant, I'm in the field track and my codename is Wolf." He looked like a freaking Greek god. I swear I heard some of the girl's out in the hall sigh.

"I'm Jonas, R&D track, my codename's Gizmo."

"Zach, field, Mask." I studied Zach. He was tall, maybe my height, with dark brown hair and green eyes. I could see why he would complicate things for Cammie.

"Mike, field, Boxer." Apparently Zach had set the trend of short intros.

"Joey, R&D, Cub."

"Jeff, field, Lion."

"Aaron, field, Bear." What was up with all the animal inspired codenames?

"Will, field, Shadow."

"Tobey, field, Storm."

"Nate, filed, Cobra."

"Todd, field, Surfer."

Wesley, filed, Stirrup."

"Alex, field, Fox."

"Daniel, I'm Wesley's twin, R&D, Spur."

"Luke, Field, Scar."

"Connor, field, Flint."

"Travis, I'm Connor's twin, field, Slate." It was so obvious they were twins, I didn't think he really needed to say so, but I guess when you're a spy, you point out obvious things like that.

"Ethan, field, Patch."

A strawberry blond boy with stunning blue eyes stepped up to the mike. I realized he was blind. A blind kid in spy school?

"I'm also Jeff, so call me Iggy. I'm new. Codename's Pyro."

"Yo. Name's Alex, call me Fang. I'm new, and my codename's Hawk." I stared at him. If I cut my hair, I'd look exactly like him except for my so obviously being a girl. He saw me, blinked, and stared. Max stepped up to the mike again.

"Since we'll be going to school with you, and since you're spies and will find out anyway..." Fang shook his head, but Max lifted her chin and snapped out a pair of wings. They were brown, fading to white-ish, with streaks of tan. Fang sighed as he and Iggy followed suit. Nudge, down in the main part of the hall did as well. Fang's wings were incredibly dark black, Iggy's were dark grey with lighter speckles, and Nudge's a tawny color. Gasps rang out from all directions.

A/N i let fang go, but now I have Zach to torture! hee hee!

zach: help

me: shut up you moron! Ally Carter needs to either kill you off or make you ask Cammie out or something! and stop smirking!

me: ARGH!

zach: don't hurt me!
