"Pest, Alex! Over here!" someone whisper out from outside the cell's door.
Chapter 14
Looking up from his spot on the floor, Alex sees Paul standing in front of the door.
"Paul? What are you doing here? You're not going to go into one of those stereotypic villain's speeches on how your life is all rain and doom so now you're taking revenge, right? Because I heard too much of those and really don't want to hear it from you either," Alex said in an annoyed voice, after seeing who it was at the door of the cell.
Both Paul and Shark look at Alex in a manner of 'where is with this guy's head and where had it been'. After a while of silence, Paul decided to start to talk and answer Alex's bizarre question.
"…Uh, no. I came here to rescue you. Really Alex, I think you need to go see someone and to talk about that whole villain thing. It's not normal to have that kind of thinking."
Shark had during this time been taking turn staring at the spy and the villain who seemingly not a villain. He decided then and there that if he is going to get out of this alive, he's going to retire to a nice farm house, far away from any scary teens, no, make that any living human beings. Maybe having a few kids later on would be nice.
"Paul, just to get things right, you're on the bad guys side and I'm on the good guy side. You want to kill me, not rescue me from the place where your side put me in." said Alex to Paul in a slow voice as if he was speaking to a child.
Paul then face palm himself and proceed to look up at the ceiling as if asking for patience. This is MI6 best spy! Yet here he is, not seeming to be able to grasp the concept of what he is trying to tell him.
Taking a big breath and then letting it out, Paul then started to explain in more detail and hope that Alex would be in the right frame of mind to actually comprehend what he's trying to get across to him.
"Okay, after I was sent to my mother, the MI6 sent someone to me. They told me because of what happened to my dad, some people might try to come contact me on asking me if I want to take revenge at you and join them. Knowing that, they sent me to train with the FBI in America and what they predicted actually happened. So now, here we are talking about all this in front of a cell."
Alex stared at Paul for a few minutes and he slowly started to nod his head in understanding. How much more can MI6 screw with his life till they're satisfied? First his parent's death, then his uncle's. His godfather also betrayed him because of MI6 as well. Now he's in a trouble that can be prevented if only they had told him earlier.
"So, how are you planning to rescue us out of this dump?"
"Don't you have a plan? You are the greatest spy ever in the MI6 you know."
"You're joking"
"Nope!" Paul said with a grin.
"Literally! I'm forced to work for a group of child abuse people and because of them, I am stuck inside a cell with a jerk who hold a petty grudge with my father, and a dude who is a kid! A sick kid at that. I need a life and new friends. I really do."
Both Paul and Shark stare at Alex as he ranted. Wow, the kid need to get out more often.
Sighing, Paul started to pull something out of his pockets and a clanking noise was heard. He had produced a pair of keys for the cell. Opening it up, Paul smirk and let Alex and Shark out.
"Oh, and do not think I forgotten about that comment with the sick kid and everything."
"Boo hoo. You'll live. Now let's get out of here. Do you know the way out of this building since it seem like you thought of the whole plan already."
"Uh…maybe"
Alex stare at Paul, and somehow it turn into a staring match. After a while, Paul looks away.
"Okay, what if I don't have a solid plan. Do you ever have one? We'll just plan as we go."
"Yeah, but I'm an experience spy! I don't need to plan ahead; I'm able to get out of any trouble if anything bad happened. I cannot do that with two more people with me."
"Hey! No matter how much you look down upon me, I am a trained SAS solider. I am not a burden that you need to look after and take care of!"
"What he said. I trained with the FBI for a reason, and I did learn a great deal from them. I am not the same useless boy that you remembered Alex."
Looking between the two determine people in front of him, Alex feels nothing but drain. Don't get him wrong, he believe in their abilities if not Shark at least. But still, this kind of mission is his specialties as annoying as it is. He just feel really worry about what could happened and go wrong since everything always go wrong on his missions. If now big, killing Man o' War, then group of evil clones wanting to dissect you, with countless more to dangers.
Sighing, Alex said two words.
"Let's go."
