Two hours later, I stepped out of the office after getting debriefed. I explained the whole story, from arriving at Blackthorne, to the whole gym incident, to the chandelier falling, and finally to what happened with the male teacher.

***

After Cammie had finished muttering expletives, she jumped out. "It's a silent security system. This place is weird." She hissed, and the teacher nodded. I realized that we were still at the school. Why on earth would they have all this high tech stuff that wasn't even helping us?!

"These rooms are used for training and practice." She explained. (There we go again with the mind reading!) "Someone had to know that they were here, and then program their codes into it. We certainly didn't do this."

I sighed as Cammie went to work on what looked like an electrical socket. (Turns out it was one of the many programming disks. I had a lot to learn.) She held it up for the teacher to see. She took it, and popped a mini disk out of it. After fishing around in her pocket, she put one of her own in it, and handed it back to Cammie, who handed me a spray bottle filled with what looked like water. I raised my eyebrows at her, and she stifled a laugh.

"Spray it about a foot above the ground in the room. Don't step past the doorway, but try to cover as much area as you can." I nodded, and stepped over toward the door. Kneeling down, I sprayed the area right in front of the door, and then reached into the room and kept spraying. At Cammie's word, I stopped and stood back. I could see little red laser lights all over the place. Cammie put the fake electrical socket back, and all the lines disappeared.

"Sweet," I said, and moved toward the door.

"Val, wait." I looked over at Cammie. She shook her head and continued. "The whole room wasn't connected by that disk. Only a little area. There's probably five more. Look around and tell me if you find any more."

I nodded, and started looking at the walls. In record time, the teacher and Cammie found what we were looking for, and I stood back and watched. They got the disks disabled, or whatever. It all got kind of blurry. I snapped back to reality when Cammie jumped down from a vent two feet from me.

"Are you okay?" She asked, giving me a weird look.

"Yeah, fine. What's next?"

"We go in. And try not to get killed." She said with a small smile. I had a feeling that she was kidding, but the thought still scared me a little.

I followed Cammie into the room. She had given me the job of spraying the stuff in the spray bottle all over the floor. I did so quickly, and she smiled. There were no little red lines, which meant that we (well, they… I hadn't done much) had gotten all of the disks. Cammie and the teacher, whose name I still didn't know, went over to the guy and untied him. He muttered the same thing the lady had – it was supposed to be a test, so he let them tie him up. When Cammie asked where they had gone, the guy shrugged.

"They killed the lights. They were all wearing black… And that door leads to a hallway. They could be anywhere by now."

I felt my eyes getting wide, and I looked at Cammie. We ran to the door and I flung it open. She ran past me, and stopped short.

"He wasn't kidding. This hallway is massive." I muttered.

Cammie nodded. "Start checking rooms," she said with a sigh.

I nodded, and looked in about three rooms before I came to one with a window. I crossed the room to it, and pulled back the curtains. "CAMMIE!!" I called, and seconds later she ran in.

"What's up? Oh. Wow." Together we watched as ten men in black ran across the lawn.

"What now?" I asked, but Cammie had already pulled out her Target.

"I've got eyeball. They're crossing the lawn." She said, before nodding and clicking it off. "The teachers will take care of them. We can go back to our rooms."

"Thank goodness. We need to find Zach." I mentioned, and she nodded.

"Right. Let's go." We walked back through the doors, and saw that there was already a team fixing the disks Cammie had, er… shut off. She caught my eye and smiled. We started running, and didn't stop until we were back at the main foyer. The glass had been cleaned up, and we found out that another chandelier was on its way.

Zach and Grant were leaning against the banister when Cammie and I got to our floor. They were both wearing a small smirk, and I felt Cammie tense slightly.

"You took the makeup off," I commented.

Zach nodded. "You two went into that room, didn't you?"

"Yeah," I started, but Zach cut me off.

"How long did it take before you realized it was a joke?"

"Well," Cammie started, "Val figured out it was a joke pretty quick, but we heard a scream so we went to check it out. It's a good thing we did, because it was real."

"Right, Gallagher Girl. Now you're trying to trick me. It won't work. We staged the whole thing."

Cammie shook her head. "you staged the chandelier? That was real."

"We told them it'd be more real. I didn't know they'd actually do it."

"They didn't. Someone else did." I spoke up. Zach turned to me. "For real, Zach. You need to believe us." I held his gaze, and after a minute, he looked away.

"Okay, so who's responsible, and where are they?" He said finally.

Cammie smiled. "Some guys in black. Val saw them crossing the lawn, and we told the teachers. We should go back and run their prints." She turned to me. "You okay?"

I half nodded. "Those guys… They were in black." I looked directly at Zach, but he didn't catch it. "Just like the ones that were in the gym…"

My brother laughed. "Right, Val. What's your point?"

I rolled my eyes. Zach was being short because he had been wrong. "Never mind. Let's go, Cammie. We don't want to miss lunch. It's amazing here."

(A/N: Sorry! *ducks and throws hands over head to protect herself from flying objects* Its not as long as I wanted, but I finally figured how to move documents from my phone to the computer! And we got wireless, so yay for late night writing! :D Expect (and hope for) an update soon. BTW, does this count as a cliff hanger? And OMG I'm in love with the Jonas Brothers. I finally saw Camp Rock. Wow. (: Haa, alrighty, review please! 3)
