Chapter 5

Tyana closed the door gently behind her and quickly reached into the communicator pouch on her bag. She pulled it out, dropped her bag to the floor and flipped it open.

"Ty, how long does it take you to ans—" Bret managed to get out before Tyana pointedly brought a finger to her lips. The man on the screen's facial expression marred with confusion and Ty explained in a barely audible voice,

"I'm in a shop. What do you want?"

"I've got your mission all mapped out." He told her quietly.

She peeked over the top of the doors to see Jeff staring in her direction, "Great, look let me get some stuff and I'll call you back ok?" she asked, sounding so firm it came off as an order.

"Ok, but hurry up" the screen blacked out so Tyana packed up, changed into her own clothes and dashed from the room.

"Hey, what's with the rush?" Jeff called out as she rushed past him.

"Oh, I just remembered I've got some really important stuff to do." She practically ran up to the counter, threw down the clothes that Jeff had given his stamp of approval and quickly paid.

"Well, uh, can I have your number?" Jeff asked shyly, biting his lip sweetly as he hoped she'd say yes.

Tyana took the bag held out to her by the woman behind the counter and paused, staring at Jeff intensely. For some reason her heart was caught in her throat but her backpack began to beep again.

"I'm sorry but I'm traveling a lot so I don't have a set one" she apologised before she turned to leave.

Jeff followed her, "Don't you have a cell phone?"

"No, I'm so sorry. Look I've got to go—Bye," She said frantically before taking off at a run towards the malls exit.

Jeff sighed, "Bye"

Tyana threw her bags onto the floor of her hotel room and quickly pulled out her only connection with her original realm,

"Took your time!" Bret scoffed annoyed.

Tyana rolled her eyes, "Whatever, what is it?"

"What?"

"MY MISSION!" she practically screamed, part of her excited to finally be given the chance to make a difference.

"Well you know we thought there might be some people from this realm in your dimension trying to keep tabs on everything and prevent anything like what we're planning from happening?"

Ty nodded, recalling their long discussion over the possibility vividly.

"Well there is. 45 of them. They're placed at crucial points over the globe. 15 of them are in America"

Ty nodded, waiting for the punch line.

"We've found the location of 8 of these already and I've got people working 24/7 to pin point them."

"Great. So where do these come into this?"

"These select 45 each carry a chipped card with them which can control any or all of the cameras in their assigned area. Your job will be to collect the card of each member in North America and Canada. It's not going to be easy but I'll be here with you every step of the way and so will the rest of the team…"

"Thanks…I assume that means that the rest of our mission are collecting the cards from their allocated continents."

"Correct. In fact since we collected this information Marettabella who's in china at the moment has seized our first card of the mission"

"Excellent!"

"I know…Ty, you're next"
