CHAPTER 5!
Alex woke with a pounding headache, and a sore leg.
He groaned and turned his head to the side.
When his eyes finally fluttered, and opened painfully, he realized that he wasn't at home, he wasn't at the cemetery and he couldn't move.
He was now fully awake, the past events coming back to him.
Struggling against the ropes, he remembered the small knives he carried in his shoes, so even if someone had searched him, he would have something to help him.
He turned, arching his back awkwardly, and grabbing his shoes, yanking one off. His back burned with the stretching, but he was flexible, so it wasn't anything more than uncomfortable.
He slipped the knife out of the sole of his shoe, and slipped it into his hand.
A second later, he was out, and rubbing his sore wrists. He glared at the bars that covered his exit.
That was when the events of the cemetery had all come spilling back into his memory, the drug they had used finally wearing off.
"Sabina!" he whisper yelled to himself.
He realized someone was in the room with him, and he turned to see the dirty face of Sabina. He breathed a sigh of relief, and when over to her.
"Oh, Sab…" he trailed off, realizing that he and Sabina weren't the only one's in the room. He gasped.
"What the heck…"
He trailed off, looking into the frightened faces of Mark, Susan, Drew, Zach, and Lindsey.
"What happened?" he asked Sabina, who had been given considerably less of the drug from the kidnapping.
She nodded to the brookland students.
"We- we were all kidnapped."
Alex asked the group, "Why you guys? What happened at school?"
Susan was the one to speak up, as she was the one who wasn't a bully.
"Tom escaped…" she choked on her tears. "We- we followed you from school, sorry, but we needed the truth.
"Alex looked at her and nodded. He would have wanted the truth too.
"We saw everything. The men, the house, the training, scars, fighting, languages, cemetery, Sabina…." she trailed off, embarrassed and frightened.
Alex merely nodded again. "I'm going to have to fill you guys in."
He sat down, and took a deep breath, not sure how to start the story.
Alex only knew one thing.
Someone wanted to hurt him.
The full force of the situation hit him.
They were trapped.
They were Kidnapped.
LINE BREAK! I'M NOT HERE!
K-unit rushed out of the house, prepared for a suicide mission.
No one but Alex and John rider had ever come out of SCORPIA alive.
After a long argument, Tom persuaded the unit to let him come with, as he had been taught by Alex, which was only a half truth.
Sometimes Alex would get super serious, and tell Tom things like if someone grabs you from behind, use this move, or if people say these certain things in a certain language, run, or call the cops, or he would warn Tom about certain people that would love to hurt him, just for knowing him.
And when he listened to Alex he would start to realize that he was more than just a james bond.
He had survived the impossible.
He was amazing, and he could die at any moment.
That was the truth of the matter. He could really die at any moment.
The thought struck Tom like 1,000 volts of lighting.
He breathed heavily, not sure if he was going to be sick. He held his mouth, and when the nausea swept back down, like in waves, and he noticed that Fox was looking at him with a worried expression.
He waved it off. "I'm fine. I'm - fine." he said to him, pushing everything down.
Every feeling of sickness, of weakness, and of emotion.
He would rescue his friend, and everything would be fine.
If only that could actually happen.
Line break! Don't mind me!
Alex looked over the terrified faces of the students and Sabina.
He took a deep breath and explained to them, (obviously Sabina knew.) how he came to work for MI6, how his family really died, his missions, Sabina, everything.
He choked a little, and his mask slipped only the littlest bits when he described the outline of what his family and Jack had done, and how they had died.
And SCORPIA. Of course, he had to explain that, but he left out a few details about mrs. Jones, and what he did while at SCORPIA.
He explained everything, only pausing a little to take breaths, and try to remain in control of his emotions.
He succeeded, but only barely.
Sabina comforted him a little, and he looked into the eyes of the students from brooklyn, who actually believed him, surprisingly.
He gave a weak smile at them.
"We will be okay. These men you saw, at my house, K-unit, they will come for us and I will find a way to escape. This has happened to me before. You all just need to trust me."
The students nodded, slowly, and questions were fired off at Alex about his double life.
Alex lost track of who had asked the questions, they were coming in like a torrent of water.
"Let me sum it up!" he shouted, then lowered his voice, as he was still in a SCORPIA holding cell.
Looking warily around, he continued.
"Ok." he breathed. "I was recruited at age 14 after my uncle died- shot by Yassen Gregorovich, a Russian contract killer and assassin, went and saved you all from the Stormbreaker virus, and Herod sayle, fighting an evil jellyfish, a man who accidentally cut off his tongue, and a german lady who was eventually stung to death in my escape…."
He continued.
"My second mission, I was recruited to go to a French alps school called Point Blanc, to investigate the death of two millionaires, Michael J. Roscoe and Viktor Ivanov, both works of a contract killer, known only as the gentlemen."
"Oh, I've heard about that!" Lindsey exclaimed. "I didn't know they were murdered!" She added quietly.
Everyone nodded, and mumbled their condolences, and surprises.
He looked around at the faces and continued.
"At the school, I uncovered the plot to clone rich and powerful billionaire's children, and take over the world, and skied down a cliff in a bullet proof snowsuit on a ironing board. Barely escaping after I landed on a train and launched myself into a barbed wire fence."
Alex winced at the memory.
"K-unit saved me, and I- well, that huge fire in the science lab was my fault. Apparently they made an evil clone of me and it attacked me at school. Sorry."
He looked towards them, and they didn't look that surprised.
"My third mission where I met Sabina, at wimbledon is next. Long story short, I stopped a drug deal, and defeated a member of the chinese triad."
"Geez." zach commented.
Alex merely nodded.
"They tried to drown me while I was surfing by running me over with a jet ski, but Sabina was there, and saved my life."
He looked at her for reassurance, and smiled at her, holding her hand.
Despite the circumstances, Drew Ahhhhhhed at them.
Sabina bit her lip as Alex continued.
"Partnering with the CIA, I went on a mission to investigate general Sarov. I stopped both agents from being killed a few times even on a boat when one had been exposed. I set the boat alight, saved him, and jumped overboard."
He took another deep breath.
"In the end, they both died, but I succeeded after the general who was constructing a nuclear bomb tried to adopt me because I reminded him of his dead son. His evil henchman hated me from the beginning, and kept trying to kill me."
He paused once more before continuing.
"In the end, he commited suicide, because i refused to let him adopt me and blow up all of Russia, probably destroying the world. I was rescued after conrad also died, and went on to my fourth mission."
Alex moved on to his next mission. He summed it up quickly, for someone was bound to come for them soon.
"15 years before- my- my, well, my dad and his apprentice at SCORPIA, Yassen, the same man who killed my uncle were on a mission. My dad saves Yassen's life, and 15 years later, Yassen blows up the house we,"
He pointed at him and Sabina.
"Were staying at in the south of france for vacation. He was paid to kill her dad for writing about damian cray, exposing the truth that he was really a mad billionaire trying to destroy the world to get rid of drugs…"
He continued.
"I was taken, trying to stop him, and put in the live version of the feathered serpent, where I had to fake my death to get out of it. I stole a important flashdrive, and yassen kidnapped Sabina for leverage."
He glanced at Sabina who wore a stone mask.
"We were kidnapped, taken to air force one, and Yassen died when refusing to shoot us."
He answered all of the questions they had about the billionaire, video game, and air force one, trying to overlook bad memories.
"We escaped when they both died, and then I went into SCORPIA, those who kidnapped us. I already explained that. Next, I met the son of Nikolei drevin, Paul, saved him from being kidnapped, and long story short I stopped a bomb from going off, and destroying America's capital, thus destroying America probably."
He took a breath again, and kept going, ignoring the amazed faced of Brookland.
"I went up into space, had a knife fight with a bad guy, and landed in the Pacific ocean near Australia, thus getting to work with my godfather, Ash on a mission titled Snakehead to prevent a huge tsunami created by a bomb to kill nine celebrities on a island."
He continued.
"I fought in a boxing ring, and ran from a bunch of bad guys to sum it all up. Ash was evil, and K-unit was there again, in the end to help me infiltrate their base. In the end, Fox, who I had met earlier in the mission, killed Ash, and major Yu, who was the boss and mastermind of it all, also died due to the shock of the bomb, which did not destroy the island."
"Wow." Sabina breathed. The kids nodded.
"I succeeded, and went home, only to be thrown into another mission titled crocodile tears." he continued.
"I was at a party in Scotland with Sabina when I was almost killed in a car crash when someone blew out our tire, and we almost drowned when we landed in a lake. When we got home, a journalist found out my secret, and in exchange for him not telling and for MI6's help, I went on a mission. Found out some info, was kidnapped, almost eaten by crocodiles, saved by the indian government agent undercover there, drove a plane and had a huge fight with Desmond Mccain, my captor, who died in the end, and left me critically injured."
"I obviously survived to have another fling with SCORPIA, after being taken by the CIA, and traveling to cairo with Jack, my guardian. I- I- already explained what happened when we were both kidnapped. Long story short, she died as revenge from the clone, Julius, from Point Blanc and other enemies."
He stopped, not wanting to remind himself of other memories.
"A lot of stuff has happened since then, and I will tell you all later, but it's not important right now. SO, I guess that's it."
Everyone stared at him. The truth actually made sense.
Alex was about to get some sleep while he could, but a few minutes after he had closed his eyes, the doors were yanked open, and a rough voice sounded out, and he was being yanked up.
Alex was awake immediately, and he was assessing the huge man that had come to get him.
"Alex rider." he boomed. "It's time to talk."
Alex swallowed, looked back at Brookland and Sabina, and was yanked out of the room.
Now was not the time to fight.
But he would do it. He would be found, and he would escape.
YAH! I finally updated! Sorry for the wait, but I'm trying! Hope you like it so far. More chapters coming! review!
