Meanwhile, over at MI6, they were seeing everything Alex was seeing. Though they didn't tell him, while he was under anesthesia they put two contact lenses in his eyes. One in one eye, one in the other. These contact lenses send a video feed of what Alex Rider sees to the computers back at MI6. Alex Rider was a little surprised that immediately after he walked outside of the door, or went about 100 yards, the building was hit by a missile. Coincidence? Knowing MI6, probably not. Alex chose not to think anything of it. He just had to find a way to locate Sabina.
He started to wonder, how were Sabina Pleasure's parents? MI6 said absolutely nothing about them. Then again, he didn't ask. But surely MI6 would of at least said "something" about them. Maybe they assumed he knew how they were. Probably grieving. Alex didn't have a lot of time to reflect upon this. He had to save Sabina. MI6 was a little concerned that Alex had killed four people in the matter of around 24 hours. They were afraid that he might go into depression. Although Alex Rider seemed fine now, there was a possibility that he would go into depression.
Alex Rider killed four people in a matter of matters. He thought he would never even think of doing this, but it took him nothing to convince himself that he should do this. He just did it. Maybe it was because he was angry. He thought that no one who would do such vile and horrible acts should have any sympathy towards them. Alex focused on trying to find a way to find her. It was nearly impossible. Each building looked the same. The only way he locate her would be to go under cover as prison guard.
This wouldn't be hard, considering what he was wearing. He looked for other prison guards, or anyone who looked like him. People treated Alex with so much respect. He assumed that they were forced to do this. It made Alex feel a little uncomfortable. Not surprisingly they weren't hard to find. In a back alley they were loading prisoners into the back of a truck. Alex thought about the fact that the other prison guards might find it odd that another guard just randomly showed up. Fortunately, they didn't think much of it. He was loaded into the back of the truck with two other guards and the prisoners.
Every single one of them had a black bag on top of them. Judging on the height, he figured out most of them were men, some were women, and a percent of them were children. He could hear the little cries coming from the people. It almost made him cry, but he sucked it back up. They traveled for about two miles, using secret roads that probably nobody knew about. They arrived at a vacant building. Then the unloading of prisoners started to happen. Each man, women, and child were lined up in single file lines.
Each guard was assigned a prisoner. A leash with spikes was attached to every prisoners head, so that if the prisoner tried to escape, they would kill themselves. Alex was given a young fourteen year old boy like himself. The fear in his eyes was unbelieveable. He knew more of what happened here, than Alex would ever know. A backround check would show up that some of his othe family members were killed here. Alex Rider didn't want to be harsh or mean, but when the guards were watching him, he had to be.
Alex walked over to the prison cell and gently took off the spiked leash. Each guard was ordered 24/7 watch over their prisoners. This was good for Alex. If he could befriend this boy, by telling him the truth, he might find a way to save Sabina.
