On a bed a boy was sitting, his long unkempt hair was hanging down obstructing his face. Cell 55C was stripped of personal belongings, the wall was clean besides a well used photograph of a young beautiful girl with long curly blond hair and piercing blue eyes. Every time the boy looked up at the pictures he burst out in shriek that was something between a sob and a shout.
When the door opened he didnt't look up, not recognizing his father standing there.
" I'm here to take you home, you lovesick fool. "
Max looked up and for the first time in a year he started to laugh...I finally can get my revenge...
Manny looked down at his once handsome son before he grabbed his hand and dragged his laughing son out of the cold cell, happy that he did rigged the camera making it impossible for anyone to hear Max's hoarse laugh.

Clara opened the door to her and Mary's dorm room, looking around making sure it was safe for Mary. Everything seemed normal and Clara could relax a bit, since the events last year her job has been uneventful. But since last year, she had learned to enjoy the quiet life when it happens. Assessing it as secure, she decided to pick up the mail for both herself and Mary's and went outside.
Todays mail was full, mostly it was to Mary but she had also got one letter from Amanda, she looked forward to read it later. When she was again in Mary's dorm she started going through Mary's letters as a precaution, she used CI's latest invention that scanned the letters without making it look like someone had read it. Two of the letters was from Stanford, one was from her Mum but posted to Mary. It made Clara really sad, her mother never sent her a letter. But they did talk twice a week. The last letter made her laugh, Mary will love that, it was from Lester Jr. Clara knew that Mary had been worrying about Lester for a while.
After reading the letter a single tear was shed, he's so cute, asking Mary for her forgiveness but at the same time promising that he will leave her alone.
Usually Clara had time off when Bryce had the surveillance (it was divided between several classes), but she had promised looking into a boy that had showed interest in Mary. Since Max Mary had been scared to make new friends and it had taken both Clara and Bryce to make her try to make some new friends.
It was easy getting access to other dormrooms, which had made them putting extra security in theirs. But Adam's had no extra security which made it simple for her to get into. His room looked like she expected from a college boy, filled with course book and posters. It didn't take her long for her to asses that he was clean. During the clean up of the dorm, she accidentally knocked down a lamp and found microphone, that made her suspicious. She put it back, and went out and called her best friend to ask if it was their mic.
" Amanda it's me, do you know anyone having a Adam Smith under surveillance ?" she asked as she walked back to her dorm, they had planned a dinner today with herself, Mary, Adam and Bryce but at the moment it looked like they needed to cancel it. " Claara, what are you saying? Call me back when you read my letter." First she didn't detected the shriver in Amanda's voice, it didn't came until she was alone in her dorm.
Something was wrong and Amanda couldn't tell her that on the phone. With shaking hands she opened her letter and read the content.
C3C1 W2A1W3Z4 A2E3Z4 Z2 B4E3B1B1A1C2H1G1A1C1 E2H2E3B1 B4H1Z2, B1Z2D1 G4Z2W3 C1W3B4Z2F4C1D0...
Clara recognized the code, something she and Amanda had created during the school time and they were the only one that understood it. It took her a while before she could decipher it.
We just got a communique from CIA, Max has escaped don't let Mary out of your sight we suspect a mole.
A silent shriek came from Clara's mouth, the mad mad Max was out and he would definitely go after Mary. Not now when Mary is getting better, not now..I'm not sure how I can tell her or if Bryce is safe...
Not far away Mary was walking happily not knowing what just had happened. She was surrounded by her knew friends that didn't know what she had been through, which made it so much easier. Not far from her was Agent Bryce Larkin walking, he looked liked a regular student but his job was to protect Mary, his studies was only a cover.
Bryce graduated from the most prestigious Spy Academy in the US, but still he only got this job as a body guard. Even if the one he was protecting was from one of the most respectable family in the spy business. With friends he may complain how boring this job was, but deep inside he loved this job and being able to work with the famous Agent Woods, who still held the records at the academy.
