Chapter 3 ~ The Rough Agent
Milo looked at the agent, with a clear expression of fear painted on his eyes. "Whatcha gonna do with me?" he asked, hopefully not triggering his anger. "Oh nothing. I was just going to asked you SOME THINGS," he responded, looking at the restrained child. "Now who are you?"
"I-I'm Milo. M-Milo Murphy," the boy responded in a small but yet clear voice for the agent to understand. "Milo..." - Brick
Milo trembled in fear if whether the answer didn't satisfy the agent, and he'll gonna do some serious harm on him. Sure he's a 13 years old boy, but this man doesn't seem to even care.
He continued walking around the restrained boy, who is sitting on the uncomfortable wooden chair. While holding his cattle prod, Milo is sure that he's going to do harms on him. A tear fell from his eyes. "Don't Be A Cry Baby! I won't do any harm to you...," Brick then turned his back on Milo. "...not yet," he murmured. Although the murmur is very small and neither Milo nor Savannah could hear it, but Milo knew that he was up to no good. Milo became even more scared. 'Guys, where are you? I really need your help here. This Man Is Trying To Kill Me!' Milo mumbled to himself.
While With Zack, Melissa, And The Time Travellers
They are on the time machine, on their way to 2175. Melissa and Zack were amazed by most of the things during the journey, perhaps because this is their first time travelling experience.
"So... this is the feeling being in the time stream?" Zack asked looking outside the window, which is full of clocks aside of the infinite emptyness. "Yeah. Fun, right?" Dakota said glancing at the kids on the back seat. "Dakota! This Is No Time For Sight-Seeing! We need to find Milo!" Cavendish exclaimed worriedly, but keep his hand stable on the steering wheel.
The time machine then got out of the time stream and landed nearby a large building, surrounded by other tall futuristic buildings. "Wow... is this... the future?" Zack asked amazed by the futuristical view of... basically everything. "Yep, welcome to the 2175!" ~ Dakota
The kids wandered their eyes around the city in awe. It really looks like in the movies. Cavendish then called them. "Ehem... kids, come on! We still need to save Milo," Cavendish said, realizing them about their first inteion coming to the future. Zack and Melissa then followed them into the building. The building is vastly huge. "So... Dakota, is this your office?" Melissa asked, wandering her eyes around the building. "Yep. Welcome to the bureau, kids. The office and headquarter of the whole time travellers in the future," Dakota said, introducing the building as if it's the grand opening. "Yeah, but we're not going to be long in here. We're just going to get the coordinate of Brick and Savannah and get back to the present to save Milo," Cavendish said, but then he remembered something. "Oh, and stay out of our boss. If he knows that we brought you from the past, we'd be in big trouble."
"Okay," the teens nodded in understatement.
"Now Dakota. Where is this your 'companion' that can help us?" Cavendish asked his companion, which is looking around the random spots of the building interior. "Don't worry! We're close." - Dakota
Suddenly, out of nowhere, Mr. Block showed up, coming towards their direction. "Oh no, it's Mr. Block!" Cavendish exclaimed, pointing at their boss. "Quick, hide!" Dakota instructed as they pushed the teens into the back of a nearby plant pot. They sure hope that no one noticed the appearance of the teens.
"Cooperdink and Hampshire?!" Mr. Block yelled as he spotted them. "It's Cavendish and Dakota, sir," Cavendish interrupted him, still with a polite manner of voice. "Nevermind. What are you doing here? You two should be doing your assignment!" Block said, much likely pissed off of their appearance here. "Well... you see, we..." Cavendish continued when suddenly Block interrupted him, before he even finished his sentence. "I told you, no new assignments. If you can finish this assignment well, then I'll consider giving you a new one. So get back to work!" He stated finally, without giving them chance to complain. "Okay, just getting some stuffs that we left here. Hehe, you know us; forgetting things," Dakota replied, giving his best excuse, in order to amuse their boss. "Average low-level agents." Block said as he left the time travellers alone.
Cavendish made sure there is no one paying attention to them, and then instructed the teens to get out of their "hideout."
"That was close." - Cavendish
"Yeah, don't mind Block. He's always like that," Dakota continued. "Now come on, this way!" He said as he led them to his "companion." They walked for several steps when Dakota pointed at someone, that he particularly knows. "There!" He said pointing a man who dressed like someone from the present. "Hey, Terry!" He yelled waving at him. They then approached the man with the casual present time attire.
"Oh hey, Dakota. What are you doing here? I thought you're going on a mission with your partner," Terry asked as his old companion approached him. "I'm here because you owe me something." - Dakota
"What do you want?"
While With Milo, Brick, And Savannah
Milo sweats. He never felt so afraid in his life before. A tear starts to slip from his lacrimal. "So I heard rumors that you're hanging around with those low level time travellers..." Brick continued, not letting his eyes off of Milo. Milo gulped, not sure what to say. "Y-you mean Cavendish and Dakota?"
"Yes, those guys. The nut-jobbers. What are you planning with them?" Brick asked as if he's facing a professional agent.
"What a-are you t-talking about?" Milo asked, he's trembling in fear, making the chair shakes.
"Tell me! Who are you working for?!" Brick said, threatening him with the cattle prod, which he never let slipped off his hand.
"I have no idea what are you talking about. Please, let me go..." Milo cried, struggling to get free from the chair. "NO! You haven't told us anything!" Brick pointed the device even closer to the poor boy. "You better answer him, kid," Savannah casually said. "But, but, ..."
Milo didn't know what to say. He just stayed quiet. Brick becomes even more furious. "Answer me! Who are you working for, Agent Milo?!"
"But I'm not an agent, please. I'm just a normal human boy," he said between his tears. Savannah then rummaged through his backpack, looking for any solid evidence of Milo being an "agent."
"LIAR!" He yelled, tazing Milo with the cattle prod. Milo shrieked in pain. No one ever did this to him, even Elliot, as a person that really hates him for eternity, that probably wish for his non-existance. 'Guys... where are you...?' He mumbled to himself in tears. Brick has stopped, but the tinging feeling isn't. Milo felt so weak now, so weak that another taze might sent him to his last breath.
He wished that his friends would be quick, before he died under the hands of these two rough agents.
