A Little Game Called Cat and Mouse

Just a little side note, I have changed the name of the third chapter (the one where the girls are introduced) from Walking In A Winter Wonderland, to Intro. I felt the original chapter title did not fit and I like the new one better.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything or anyone from Big Time Rush. The girls belong to their creators. I just own the plot.


Chapter Five

Radar

Kameryn's POV

"Just hold still!" Elena yells at Amanda, who won't sit still in her chair while Elena fixes her make up.

I watch Amanda's hands grip the edge of her seat in an effort to stay still. For her sake, it works, and Elena finishes her makeup.

"Now stand up and let me examine you." Elena says. Amanda stands up and Elena walks around her.

Elena put herself in charge of dressing all of us for our 'date' with Big Time Rush. First, Elena had done herself. She had put herself in a pair of dark blue skinny jeans, a white t-shirt with a black and red vest on top. She has on matching black boots and her black hair hangs in its' normal place a little below her chest.

Next was Erika's turn. Elena put Erika in black skinny jeans with a pair of white converses. Erika also has on a white cami with a long sleeved green sweater on top. Erika's black hair was down opposed to the usual high ponytail she wore.

Amanda is wearing a black jean skirt with white leggings tucked into black boots. She also had on a teal pullover sweatshirt with pockets that she was using to hide emergency weapons that could not be hidden in her boots. Elena has curled the ends of her dark hair, making the blonde and red highlights swirl together.

"Good luck." Amanda says, patting me on the shoulder as she leaves. I gulp and take a seat in Elena's chair of nightmares.

Elena works on me in silence, which I'm grateful for. When she tells me to stand up so she can get a better look at me, I can't believe it what she's done to me. Elena has managed to give my cheeks some color. She has used mascara that makes my eyelashes look amazing. My blonde hair, like Amanda's, is curled at the end.

"Take these and get dressed. We have to go in ten minutes." Elena says, handing me a pile of clothes. She ushers me towards the bathroom. "Kameryn." Elena says as I'm about to close the door. I look at her to see she has a soft smile on her face. "You look beautiful."

"Thank you." I say before shutting the door. I grip the edge of the sink as I look at myself in the mirror.

Elena is right. I do look beautiful. I just have a hard time believing it. My older brother, Marcus…he tells me the opposite when he beats me. Luckily the bruises he leaves are faded away before I left for the mission, so I didn't have to bring my usual cover up to hide them.

I collect my thoughts and focus on tonight's task. I pick the clothes Elena left for me: a pair of light blue jeans, a white lace cami and a black button down sweater. I quickly change myself and leave the bathroom.

Elena, Erika, and Amanda have various devices that spies often use on missions laid out on the kitchen table. Elena slips a knife into her boots, as does Amanda. Erika attaches a camera in the shape of a Scottie dog pin onto her sweater. I attach a camera watch into my wrist as the others finish suiting up.

"Everybody good?" Erika asks. We all nodded our heads. "Okay, so we all know the plan. We all use the bathroom at one point and get drinks from the fridge. Always double sweep the location even if you have already been there. One of us offers to put the movie in so we can get the bug by the TV. And one of us has to get into one bedroom and another goes into the other bedroom. I have the censor that will shut down the bugs for at least four hours. Once we step into that room, I'm setting that baby off. We all clear?"

"Clear." Elena, Amanda, and I respond.


Logan's POV

I hear three knocks come at the door. "I'll get it!" James yells. I remain in the bathroom, still getting dressed. I listen as James greets the girls at the door and the door closes. More hellos are exchanged and I step out from the bathroom. I enter the living room to see James, Kendall, Carlos, Erika and her friends standing near the couch.

"Hey Logan." Kendall says. I stand in the doorway of my shared bedroom and wave back. "Come meet the girls."

I join the rest of the group. "You already know Erika, but this is Elena," The one with black hair and a vest on gives me a smile and wave. "Amanda," The one with the dark hair and highlights does the same as Elena. "And Kameryn." Kameryn blue eyes met mine from a moment, and then she looks away.

If my mouth was open, my jaw probably would hit the floor. Because standing right here in front of me in that girl from the park the other day.


Amanda's POV

Kameryn has just excused herself to go to the bathroom. Kendall is taking Elena into his bedroom that he shares with Logan to show her his guitar. Erika and Carlos are in the living room deciding on what movie to watch. Logan is on the phone with the group's music producer, Gustavo, talking about their upcoming concert in three days, on Friday. I'm in the kitchen, making popcorn and getting out sodas out of the fridge. I see the bug on the fridge and with a single swipe of my hand, remove it. I crush it and put remains in my pocket.

The microwave beeps and I pull the popcorn out. I pour it into a bowl and notice a bug on the wall. I quickly remove it and crush it between my fingers. "Boo." A voice says in my ear. I don't even flinch. "Hey James." I say, opening another package of popcorn. I put it in the microwave and press start. Then I turn and face James.

"I didn't scare you?" He asks.

"I guess I'm not one who gets scared easily." I say. "So, a boy band?" I almost laugh at my words. I can't see someone like James in a boy band. He has the looks that almost every girl would die for.

"Well when Gustavo came to our little town in Minnesota, I auditioned to be his next big thing." James circles around me and jumps up onto the counter to sit on it. I lean against the counter next to him and look up at him as he continues to speak. "But Gustavo liked Kendall more. But Kendall refused to come out to Hollywood with Carlos, Logan, and I. So he made us into a boy band and here we are now."

"That's sweet of Kendall to do that."

"Well were best friends. We stick through thick and thin. But enough about me. Tell me more about yourself."

I pop a piece of popcorn in my mouth. "What do you want to know?"

"Favorite things? How long have you lived in New York? Where do you go to school? Uh, how did you meet your friends? Things like that."

I have to take a moment to think before I answer. I can't tell James the truth but everything, but I really don't want to lie. I'm tired of lying all the time to people. So I decide to leave certain things out. "I like chewing gum and hardcore rock. I've lived in New York for two years now. I go to at St. Morris's Academy for the Gifted and Talent right here in the city. I meet my friends when we had to work together on a…assignment."

"We found a movie!" Carlos exclaims. I offer my hand out to Jams and help him off the counter. He goes into the living room while I remove the new bag of popcorn from the microwave. I find another bug and remove it. Kameryn exits from the bathroom. I look at her and she holds up eight fingers, indicating how many bugs she found in there.

Elena and Kendall exit from the bedroom and Elena joins me in the kitchen. "How many?" I whisper.

"Seventeen." Elena whispers back. Her comment has actually taken me by surprise. And for that to happen, it has to be something huge. "Kameryn found eight in the bathroom. I have found three. Were really going to have to scope out this place."

Erika joins us in the kitchen. "I've found at least a dozen and I've spotted a dozen more." She informs us.

"It likes whoever did this is keeping them track of them like there on a radar. No way one person could have done this by there self." Elena says.

"A team?" I ask.

"Look, our job is to protect the boys, not figure out if there's a team behind this." Erika says. "Let's just remove all the bugs and try to make it through the night."


Ciri's POV

"Ciri, your laptop is pinging!" Alex Marker, one of my roommates, yells to me. I come out of the bathroom, wiping my hands on my jeans. I open my laptop and open the link to the cameras we installed in Big Time Rush's hotel the room the other day.

All the cameras are dark.

"No." I mutter to myself under my breathe. "How?"

"How what?" Alex asks from the top bunk of the bunk beds she shares with Elena, who isn't here as she is in Italy as part of one of those student exchange program or something like that.

"Nothing." I say. I grab my laptop and rush out the room, with Alex shouting after me the entire time to come back.

I rush down the hall to Janessa's room she shares with Erika Castriel, who too is in Italy, which coincidently is my homeland. I pound on her door and Janessa opens it. Her curly hair is down a little messy, almost like she was sleeping, which then becomes clear to me by the white tank top and blue pajama pants she is wearing.

"What do you want Russo?" Janessa snaps, rubbing her sleepy brown eyes. I open my laptop and hold it out for her to see. She looks at the screen and gets wide eyed. She looks at me for an explanation. But there's only one thing I can say.

"We have a problem."
