CHAPTER 4: Alex
I was irritated I had been in the stats no more then two days and I was already running for my life, and the ironic thing is I wasn't even on a mission. in the mouths that I was missing form school, is seemed Brookland educational staff had decided to take the third and forth year students to another's countries capital, the average vote was for America. When I found out that the school was planning this trip I was like cool, this could be fun. Not because I wanted to spend my time seeing the sits and all that, but because it gave me the chance to get away form MI6's clutches… for a little wile at least.
I too a bit of convincing MI6 to let me go, but it wasn't like they could use me for a mission seeing how I just go out of the hospital… not that really would stop them. Blunt it was worth a shot, and surprisingly they gave the OK. Which was strange but I wasn't one to look a gift hours in the mouth: even if it was talking and had gold teeth. But still I couldn't help but feel suspicious; this was MI6 we're talking about. Throwing that thought into the back of my mind I focused on my next opponent my school's principal.
it took a long time to convince Mr. Noblemen to let me go on the trip, but it took some fast talking but he eventually he agreed. Felling like a sappy git, I went home and packed I was totally ready for a good rest away form the worries of the spy life and some fun with my best mate Tom. But unfortunately my tendency to attract danger followed me to America so I probably should have been surprised that something happened. Because seriously it was bound to happened, I just wished I didn't happen in fro of a group of my peers.
Tom and I were grouped together with eight other third year students and two adult chaperones. One who thankfully happened to be Jack, who knew what to do when my bad luck happen to fall into our laps.
We were labeled group D, lead by Mr. Anderson a young History teacher.
The day was spent following the schedule of that's been assigned for our first day in the states. It was a boring spending our morning visiting museums and historical monuments but I would have preferred that over what happened hen we were heading for lunch. Jack and Mr. Anderson was leading us to a small dinner when I suddenly felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Shivering slightly as I tried to act casual as I walked beside Tom who was laughing at something on of the other boy had said. It wasn't until I saw the reflection of a light shine on display window of a shop we were walking past that I moved into action.
"Every body get down" I yelled as I threw myself at Tom, who was the closes body I could reach. As Tom and I fell to the ground a soft popping sound filled the air followed by the sound of the store window exploding into thousand pieces.
Looking up I searched for the source of the shooting, but my attrition was pulled away by the sound of Jack screaming. I spun around to see tow large men pulling at her, trying to drag her towards a waiting car.
"Get everyone away" I yelled to tom at I jumped to my feet and ran at the men, pushing myself to crash into the nearest mans arms to weakening his hold on Jack. At the same time my fist collided with his temple. Never once did I pause a I yelled at Jack to duck, I happy to say she didn't hesitate in doing so. As she threw herself at the grown I spun into a round house kick, the hill of my foot smashing into the second man's neck. Landing on my feet I reached out for Jack's arm and began to run in the depiction Tom and the others had ran.
"A-Alex what's happening" Jack sputtered as she tried to keep up with me, which was probably pretty hard seeing how I was in spy mode and I was practically dragging her along.
"I don't know, but we got to find the others" I hissed scanting the cluttered street of screaming people. If I hadn't been trained to see every detail in the most imposable situations, I probably would have misted seeing Tom's head poking out of door to our right. Looking around I made sure no one was watching as I lead Jack to the entrance of the little shop.
"Thank god Alex, Jack you guys are ok" Tom yelled as I pushed Jack throw the door before me.
"Yah, but we got to get moving I don't know how long this stop is safe" I told his as I looked around the store. It was a large square room filled with racks of closes and shoes, from were I stood I could see that there was a door leading to the back of the store. Hopefully who ever was out there shooting (at us/ or most likely me) didn't have any access to any back doors.
" is everyone alright" I called out to the room, group D pulse Mr. Anderson were all huddled together staring at us as if we were aliens.
"What's going on... those were those people" a blond girl, Yuri asked. Her voice a pit demanding as if she expected me to know, which by everyone's glares I guess she did.
"I don't know, but we have to get out of here. How ever they are tell be looking for us and staying here were like pigs waiting for the kill"
"No! We're not going any were with you. Your probably the reason there trying to kill us" hissed Erick Bowlmen, a jock form the football team.
"Be that as it may we still need to move, with or with out me. Staying here we'll all end up dead" I snapped back it took all of my will power not to yell at the idiot. But even if I had the chance to I didn't, because the thought was cut of by the sound of thundering feet coming from out side the store.
"Every body to the back door" I hissed. Thankfully n one argued, I led Jack over to Tom signaling to him over jacks shoulder for him to take her away. With a nod of his head he grabbed her other arm and pushed though the crown of frantic teenagers.
"Tom... what are you doing" I heard Jack ask as he lead her away. I didn't get the chance to hear what Tom's answer was because I headed for the front door. In hope that our erasures were rookies and didn't think to search inside after they had me.
