I was going to update this sooner but I went away with friends and family and had no internet on my laptop :) We had a nerf gun war! (my little brother lost)

Chapter 7: Cammie POV

"Zach." I whispered.

Poke.

"Zach." I said, a little louder.

Poke.

"Zach get up!" I yelled.

"Ahh!" Zach sat straight up, fully awake after I sprayed cold water in his ear (an idea I got from Bex, just one of the many ways she used to get me out of bed). "Gallagher Girl what was that for?"

"You were snoring and Liz called. She found another bug."

"So? Tell her to go pick up some bug spray or a bug zapper and kill the thing."

"Not that kind of bug! A listening device. You know hide me here listen to me over there type of bug."

"Right one of those." I walked over to my side of the room and pulled my travel bag out from underneath the bed. "Hey Gallagher Girl what are you doing?"

"Packing. We're going back to headquarters."

"Why?"

"I need to talk to Liz, and I think we may have missed something before we came here."

"Like what?" Like a double agent.

"Like something that might lead us to the Circle." Like a double agent.

"What didn't you say so! Let's go!" I slung my bag over my shoulder and went to walk out the door, however, I wasn't expecting my parents to have any objections.

I love my parents, don't get me wrong. But I'm not 8 years old anymore I can make all my decisions for myself. But Mum and Dad don't seem to think so though.

"Cameron Ann Morgan." Mum and Dad said simultaneously. You forgot Morgan-Gallagher.

"Just where do you think you're going?"

"Back to headquarters to talk to Liz."

"Without saying goodbye?" Asked Dad. He came forward to give me a hug. I awkwardly wrapped my arms around his shoulders and stood on my tip toes to whisper in his ear.

"What are you playing at Dad?"

"Just play along Cams." Mum was staring open mouthed at Dad.

"Matthew just what exactly are you thinking?"

"She's what 21 now?"

"22." I corrected.

"She can take care of herself Rachel." Dad took Mum's hand and waved to Zach and me with the other. As we walked out of the main hall and towards the garages I looked back and saw dad mouth 'Be safe'. I smiled and mouthed back 'I will'.

Zach was driving. Luckily he hadn't forgotten in which direction to drive out of Roseville. We drove past the local supermarket and McDonald's and pulled into the petrol station.

"I'll get it." I opened the door and began to put petrol in the gas tank. I looked up at the clear blue sky and began daydreaming, I didn't even notice Zach getting out of the car and coming and standing behind me. His arm slid around my waist and he pulled me closer to him.

"Don't look now but I found Jimmy."

I looked in the car window and sure enough I could see Josh and Deedee in the reflection. Deedee stopped, put her purse back in her pink handbag and looked up. I may be the Chameleon but there is no way I can hide from a preppy, over-excited 22-year-old who I have known since high school.

"Josh, is that Cammie? And Zach?" Deedee asked Josh. Josh looked up and I saw a flash of recognition in his eyes.

"Be nice Zach." I growled.

"Gallagher Girl," He smirked, "when am I ever rude?"

"Oh my gosh! Cammie is that you?" I turned around, a smile 1000 watts spread across my face.

"Hi Deedee how are you?" Deedee did a girly run up to me and gave me a hug. I hugged her back, hiding the awkward feelings. Josh and Zach did something of a man nod to recognise each other and said to each other.

"Jimmy."

"Zeke."

"Josh." Deedee scolded.

"Zach." I scolded, at the same time as Deedee. I smiled at Deedee knowing that we had something in common - annoying boyfriends.

"So Cammie what are you doing now?" Deedee asked.

"I'm working in Washington D.C, for a company called Crucial Intellect Affairs." I explained. (A/N: CIA get it?) "What are you doing now?"

"I'm running the family business with Josh now." Deedee replied.

"Family business?" I questioned.

"Yea we run the pharmacy with Josh's dad. We got married eight months ago." I'm sure Deedee seen the shock on my face. There goes the whole 'we both have annoying boyfriend's' thing.

"Congratulations." I smiled. Luckily Deedee couldn't tell that someone was acting and lying if her life depended on it.

"What about you and Zach? Are you two…"

"No we aren't married." I replied. "We are still together though; we just haven't found the time to get married, around work and everything." Technically not a lie. With going on missions, balancing paperwork and tracking down terrorist organisations when do spies ever get a break?

Just as I was going to ask Deedee another question I heard the sound of screeching tires and smelt burning rubber. A black SUV was speeding towards the petrol station. I knocked Deedee to the ground. Beside me I could see Zach knock Josh to the ground. Deedee screamed as the SUV braked a few metres away from us and swung around. The side door opened so I got up and peered inside the car.

"Macey!" I yelled. I pointed behind me. "Civilians. Liz's van."

Macey cursed loudly in Japanese before shouting, "Get in!"

Without hesitating I jumped in beside Macey and slammed the door shut. The car immediately sped away; Macey's foot had flattened the accelerator.

"Who exactly are we chasing?"

"A double agent. This one may be responsible for the bugs. He's COC."

"Then why are you alone? Didn't the director send you back up?"

"He did. He said you and Zach are officially off holidays and are now my backup. Welcome back." Macey ran a red light and almost hit a pedestrian.

"Can you watch the civilians please?" Macey continued to speed around corners after the car in front of us. I looked in the wing mirror. Apart from the 'object looks closer than they appear' sticker on the window I could see that another van was following us.

"Macey I don't want to worry you but we have a tail."

"I got it Cammie."

Our crazy car chase continued but ended as the other side made a move. "Macey they are trying to corner us! Don't drive over there!"

Too late.

Macey had swung the wheel around and we were speeding out of control straight towards a brick wall.

I remember the impact. The bonnet buckled under the impact and the front window shattered spraying Macey and I with glass. The air bags deployed and my head hit the head rest with such force that a shot of pain when through my head. Everything went black.
