9. GADGETS

"Jack, sorry to walk in on you like that. But seriously, Kyle?

It had been three hours after the incident with Kyle, and Lilly was sitting on Jacks bed chatting.

"So, what did you come here to tell me?"

"Zara has called us up to her office; she got something to talk to us about."

"Ok, let's go now."

Mission Briefing for Tiger Lilly Boltern & Jacquie West.

This briefing must not leave the mission control room under any circumstances. Anyone who violates this rule will be severely punished. No taking notes.

There have been sixteen robberies all over England. The stolen goods included; military weapons, expensive jewellery and electronic equipment. We suspect they are all related, actually we know they are all related. In each crime scene the police patrolling the area have all found the same thing. They all found a small crystal necklace, the necklaces had the same inscription; 31122005:7511720.

We don't know what the inscription means but we think the robberies have something to do with the very infamous criminal Melissa Heart. Melissa is only 30 years old and has already committed fifty one armed robberies. She has never been caught and has never left any necklaces.

She lives in Stratford with her twin daughters, Pear and Peach. Melissa over the years has become a multi-millionaire because she has invested in lots of celebrities and high powered businesses.

Your mission is to befriend Pear and Peach and plant listening bugs throughout Melissa's house to get info about the robberies.

Pear and Peach's father is Jack Davenport, a famous English actor. They met when Melissa went to Hollywood to do commercials. They became close friends and had a fling. Melissa left Hollywood because she found out Jack already had a wife.

Jacquie West you are assigned Pear.

Pear Heart

Age: 13

Hair: Blonde

Eyes: Blue

Additional information: Loves sports, plays Netball, Soccer, Basketball and Tennis as after school activities.

Tiger Lilly Boltern will be assigned Peach

Peach Heart

Age: 13

Hair: Light Brown

Eyes: Blue

Additional Information: Peach loves shopping and dating.

You will be going by the names Jacquie and Tiger Lilly Smith. You are sisters, your parents died soon after Lilly was born. You have just been adopted by the neighbours of multi-millionaire Melissa Heart. These people have already got two sons, Adam and Ben. They have agreed to look after you and will act like your adopted parents. There sons have also agreed and they won't tell anyone about what you are because Mr Smith used to be a cherub agent. Their names are Anita and John Smith.

Anita works for a very high-powered business; Reflex Paper Company. She is the manager. John owns his own Lamborghini dealership. They are very rich people.

Remember, this could get big. Heart is an international criminal. The police can never get proof that she's behind these robberies. So, for this mission, were doing something different.

"Girls, have you read your mission briefing?" Zara was a beautiful lady. Her husband Ewart also works in Cherub.

"Yes, were done."

"Okay girls, follow me."

Zara got up and led them up to the second floor, she knocked on the door marked 13. A red headed lady in a blue and white tracksuit was standing at the door.

"Girls, this is Miss Button," Zara said, "she will be showing you that something special."

Then Zara was gone, and the girls were left with Miss Button.

"Come in girls," by the sound of her ascent, the girls guessed she was American, "Sit down and make yourselves comfortable, I have something very interesting to show you."

She produced a butterfly hairclip.

"What's so special about that?" Lilly asked sarcastically.

"It's not what it seems. It is actually an incredibly sharp razor. Click it three times to set it of then once to stop it," she held up the small clip as the girls looked in amassment, "Now, which one of you want this one?"

"You have it Lilly, I'm sure she's got lots of other things."

"Your right Jack, I do have more. See this for example."

Miss Button produced mobile phone.

"This mobile is one of my favourites. It works under water, can find the phone number of any phone within a 10mile radius and has a voice modifier so you can speak in over six different languages and fifteen different tones."

"That's awesome!" Jack was bewildered.

"I'm not finished yet. And the antenna has a dart concealed inside it. It will knock an adult out for a couple of hours. Just press the red button three times and it will activate. Because this is a really good gadget, there's one for both of you."

Miss Button passed the girls there new Motorola RAZR V3 mobile phone. Tiger Lilly got the black one and Jack got the silver one.

"This is the newest model!" Lilly said.

"Yeah, it's awesome." Jack agreed.

"And last, but certainly not least, this."

She picked a pair of reading glasses up of her desk.

"Now Jack I believe you wear contact lenses?"

"Yes, I do miss."

"Well, these are for you."

Miss Button handed them to Jack.

"What do they do?" Jack was puzzled by the glasses.

"They are specially modified so they're perfect for you. They're also got seven switchable lenses. Just tap the button on the nose rest and flick between the different lenses; the 1st on is just the normal glass, 2nd is for Morse code, it translates more code to English in a matter of seconds. 3rd is a small but powerful reflector, aim it at anything flammable and it will alight. 4th is X-ray vision, it can see through anything less than 20cm thick. 5th, my personal favourite, is the ability to SMS Lilly on her mobile from anywhere in London! All you have to do is say the words and it sends her and instant voice mail! 6th is the translator. It is able to translate every single language and dialect know to man. And last of all the night vision. This enables you to see clearly in the dark in a 30m circle!

I'm so sorry Lilly about that, I know it sounds like Jacks got the better gadget, but I've got something extra for you.

Miss Button reached into a draw a pulled out a key-ring.

"This key here, it can open any door in the whole world. And the figurine, it's a stunt grenade."

"Thanks Miss Button." Said Lilly.

"Good luck girls! Goddbye."

Zara walked back in.

"girls can you please hurry and pack because you will be leaving to go on the mission in 48 hours and we don't know how long for", she said.

Jack and Tiger Lilly smiled. They were happy they were going on a mission but Tiger Lilly couldn't get something off her mind. She new she had something on Saturday but she couldn't remember what.
