I Just Want To Get Home
Alex Rider Fan Fic
Chapter Three
A phone call
….
….
A small suited man sat hunched over the computer desk typing in words quickly. Pausing every now and then to take a sip from the clipped blue coffee mug and running a hand through his messy black hair.
"You found him I take it then" A deep voice called from the doorway of the small office.
The man spun around quickly in his wheelie computer chair. "Yes Sir" he said turning back to the computer "His is in East Australia. I'm getting hold or his exact location now Sir."
The man in the doorway, dressed in black trousers and white shirt looked a bit out of place not in a full suit. Never the less he walked over and pulled over one of the chairs and sat down and watched the small suited man bring up various files and pages on the flat screen in front of them. The screen changed from file to photo but none of them the ones they wanted.
"Found him Sir."
Tearing his glaze away from the dozens of posters on the wall his eyes studied the computer screen. Details of Alex Riders exact location were clearly readable across the glowing screen. Stretching a smile across his serious face the man got out of his seat.
"Print these off and bring them to my office. Phone Crawley and Jones and tell them to meet me in my office straight away."
"Yes Sir." He said putting paper in to the printer not noticing the other man walk out slowly. Sighing he sat back in his chair and listened to the weird sounds the printer was making.

"Margot! Phone!"
"Please excuse me Alex," she politely said getting out of the chair and closing the curtain behind her.
Margot walked in to her office shutting the wooden door behind her and picked up the phone.
"Hello." She said unsure who was on the other end.
Picking up a pad and pen she quickly made some notes as she listened to the British voice on the phone, interrupting every now and then with questions.
"Ok I understand. I shall look forward to seeing you soon then. Goodbye." Margot said putting down the handset. Tapping the pen against the pad she thought back over the phone call. Getting up she made her way back to where Alex was sat in his cubical.
"Hello Alex." She said smiling warmly at the boy. "I have some good news. Your Guardian phoned."
"Jack!" Alex said quickly unsure how she knew he was here, he wasn't sure that any one knew where he was.
"I don't think his name was Jack but he told me about your sailing trip and filled me in on a few details. He will be coming down to collect you soon. Is that nice?"
Alex nodded not sure what to make of it. He didn't like the sound of it. He just hoped it was some kind of MI6 plan.
"I'll leave you to get some rest," Margot said picking up the clipboard and making her way out.
Alex sighed and wondered who was coming to visit him this time.

A/N: Good question who is after Alex? MI6? Or Scorpia? Made me think myself but don't worry I have my lil plan written down so I don't go off the plot too much. But I think you might be able to guess any way.
Thanks for the reviews :-P
