Chapter Six
'The surprise is...drum roll please: it's raining!'
What a disappointment! No one spoke.
'That was a joke...you can laugh. No, the real point to that was that we can't go canoeing because of the current in the river. Now, you all get a rest, a nap, if you'd like, then we can do the obstacle course in the mud. As a twist, you all have to do it chained to your team. Isn't that exciting?'
Everyone groaned.

Alex dragged himself out of his chair, offered the rest of his food to Temperance who was eyeing it hungrily and headed towards the cabins. On the way, he stopped and looked towards the leaders cabins. All the leaders were supervising a game of basketball on the courts – it would be easy to sneak in.
Alex looked back to everyone else who were coming out of the dining hall and realised they were all heading towards the game of basketball – no one would see him.
Alex crept up to the cabin the leaders occupied and slipped through the door. He looked around for Hawk's space. He wanted to know what Temperance and Hawk were talking about and if they were dangerous. He was planning to find out more about Temperance later.
Hawk's bed wasn't hard to find; it was the one with the clothes spread out across it in a messy fashion. Alex swept over to it and looked around closer.
On the night stand was a picture of three people. Alex couldn't even start to recognise them because they were facing away from the camera. Alex wasn't skilled in the profession of identifying the backs of people.
Alex peered under Hawks bed and pulled out a bag. He pulled out a few layers of clothes until he reached some objects at the bottom.
Alex extracted a folder and opened it. Inside were records of people under the names of 'Neal Hardgrave', 'Jesse Markets', 'Alfie Peterson' and 'Jenson Bailey'. Either Hawk liked collecting identities, or he stole them.
Alex quickly shoved everything back as he heard footsteps coming his way. He dived under the bed as the door opened. The owner of the shoes that were now walking towards Alex opened a drawer and placed something inside. Alex held his breath as the shoes walked back out the door.

Author's Note: Yes, I know its short, but at least I got it up! The next chapter may take a while because I have to do the obstacle course.
Review and I may be enticed to type faster!
