"Hey, can I ask you a question?" Alex asked "What?" the boy replied. To Alex's surprise, he spoke English fluently. But then again, the boy was probably more shocked at Alex, than Alex was of him. "Can you tell me anything about this place?" Alex knew for sure that he wouldn't question him. "I can tell you a lot of things about this place. I have bad memories here" "Like what?" Alex asked. "Well, my sister, mother, brother and father have all been murdered here. Once you are inside these prison walls, you never get out. Never. Until they kill you. Democracy doesn't exist in this country. They kill them, the victims, way before it says on whatever tape they made. The insurgents will make some shitty tape on how if "American and Britain doesn't remove their armed forces in 7 days, we will execute so-and-so. Right after they film the "ransom" I guess you could call it. They execute them. While people are scrambling to find them, the deal has already been done. It's sad, but that's how it works around here. Once you see that DV camera coming, you know you are next. Anymore things you need to know?"

Over at MI6, they are analyzing this boy. According to the files they have on him, his parents were both terrorists. Both blowing themselves up, back in 2000. So, he had to be around 12 or 13. MI6 knew that this boy wasn't telling the truth. Who by the way, doesn't have a name. He's listed as a "John Doe". They had to get Alex Rider out of there, before he leaked too much information. Alan Blunt called up the commanding chief officer, via satellite. "Get him out of there" was all Mr. Blunt needed to say, for the officer to know what to do. The man swiftly entered the building, found Alex Rider and dragged him out of there. Alex knew that MI6 wouldn't send him alone. "JESUS CHRIST!" Alex exclaimed "GODDAMMIT! I WAS GETTING SOMEWHERE! AND YOU CAME IN AND FUCKED IT UP!"

"Alex, he wasn't telling the truth" surprisingly for a chief officer he spoke very softly. "HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW!" "Um..." "WHAT! SHIT! I AM SO FUCKING MAD!" "Remember when you were under anesthesia for that chip device that goes in your shoulder? Yeah well, sorry for not telling you but we put some contact lenses in you".

"For what?" Alex asked, breathing pretty heavy. "Too see what you see. It sends a video feed straight to

the computers back at MI6". "So basically you've seen everything I've seen?" "Yes" the man replied. "That means you've seen me..." "Yes" the man replied "And you've seen my pe..." "Yes" the man replied. "But don't worry Alex, it's too small to even notice..." "GOOD JOKE DUMBASS!" Alex replied. "Alright, well you are going to have to come with me, and help with the search. Here is your gun, an MP5, and your bullet proof vest. "Can I call MI6?" Alex asked. "Surely" the chief replied and handed him a world phone. "Who would you like to call?" "MI6 HeadQuarters please". Alan was the first to answer. "Alex! So glad to see you." "Yeah cut the bullshit. Do you have any leads? And what about Sabina's parents?" "Alex, we have reason to believe that Mr and Mrs. Pleasure are apart of the kidnapping." "What? That's impossible. Why wouldn't you tell me this? This is huge information." "Well, we still aren't sure, and we chose not to tell you because well, honestly I don't know. We figured that if you knew it might cause you to go a little overboard. By the way, those were some good 4 kills. Oh, and I know we sent you with no gadgets, but check in the humvee. Smithers left some things you could use. Goodbye Alex. Talk to you soon." and hung up.
