Note: Hey guys I'm soooooo sorry that I'm been gone for so long, my life has been so crazy lately anyway, my friend and I have been having a little argument for the last several months and that is: Will Josh be playing a part in GG6? Will he be just mentioned, actually taking part in a scene or two (like if there's an epilogue or during the story, something like that.), or nothing at all? What do you think? Let me know!
Cammie's POV
I woke, almost gasping for breath the next morning. I quickly looked around and fortunately for me the others were still asleep. From looking at the rising sun ray through the windows and my internal clock, I could tell that it was 6:45am, which didn't make me very happy. I may be a spy, but I was still a teenage girl; and this girl liked to sleep in on the weekend.
I lay back down on my bed, but didn't try to go back to sleep, bits and pieces of last night's nightmare replaying in my head. Except the thing was that they weren't just nightmares, they were events.
I was running, no real destination in mind, I just needed to get away. They were chasing me and gaining ground fast.
"You won't get away Cammie!" A voice called right before a shot rang out in the distance.
Then it changed.
Cold, dark, silent. The cement floor, covered with dirt. Metal bars that are keeping me locked inside. Suddenly there were footsteps, coming at me, coming for me. The dim lighting just showed the face of a woman. My eyes met hers.
"Well Cameron, it's nice of you to join us." She said an evil smile on her face.
"Catherine." I growled, but my voice was low.
It changed again.
Pain. That's all that's needed to describe the situation. Unbearable pain. But I couldn't scream, it would only let them know that they were getting to me, but I wasn't going to give up. The taste of blood filled my mouth and I started to get light headed.
Then there was one more blow and I heard a yell or a scream. I wasn't sure which or if the sound had come from me or not, but then the darkness consumed me once more.
"Cammie?" A familiar voice called.
I looked too see Bex looking down at me and then I looked down to see that I was on the floor. Glancing at the clock I saw that it was now 9:00am.
"Are you ok?" She asked offering a hand to help me up.
I took it and stood up, "Never better." I must have fallen asleep again, it was the only explanation.
"You sure, because I heard a loud thump then I saw you on the ground fidgeting."
"It was just a bad dream, that's all…." I said in a tone of voice that said to just let it go.
Bex nodded and gave me a look that let me know she was there if I wanted to talk.
I silently thanked her then looked around the room noticing that we were the only ones in the room, "Where are Macy and Liz?"
"They're down at breakfast I just came upstairs to wake you up before all the food was gone." She smiled amusement in her voice.
"All the food wouldn't be gone even if the entire country had breakfast here." I said rolling my eyes, "Just let me get dressed and I'll meet you down there."
Bex nodded and 10.43 minutes later I was dressed and ready to go downstairs. As we walked I noticed that the language we were to speak in was French. I grabbed some food and Bex and I sat down in the two empty seats over by Macy and Liz.
I hadn't even said hello to them before someone whispered in my ear, "Bonjour Gallagher Girl, ce qui vous a pris si longtemps?" (Sorry if some of the words are wrong, I used a translator. For those of you who have no idea what I said, or tried to say, I said, 'Hello Gallagher Girl, what took you so long?') The voice made my heart skip a beat like it always did, but I didn't respond right away and when I did it wasn't the same way he spoke.
"Hello Zachary." I said in French, the annoyed feelings from the previous night coming back. Ok, so maybe I was over reacting a little bit, but I had a good reason. We were supposed to be a team, especially in a situation like this. Sure if it was a small one like breaking into the CIA headquarters, (yes that's considered small for us, it shows how messed up our lives really are.) or something like that, then I wouldn't have minded. But it wasn't, we were going to try and bring down one of the most evil organizations on the planet and now wasn't the time for surprises.
He sighed, "Come on Cammie; don't tell me you're still annoyed about last night…"
Ignoring his statement I ask, "So where are Grant and Jonas?"
"They should be-"Zach started to speak but was interrupted.
"You called?" Grant said coming out of nowhere, which is pretty hard to do considering he's one of the only 3 boys at Gallagher. Then I notice Jonas coming following a little farther behind him to the table, but he was more noticeable.
"I did." I said as they sat down. Grant next to Bex who was across from Liz and Jonas, who was more hesitant, sat across from Grant because there weren't any other seats.
"So what's up?" He asked.
"We need a time to set a time, for when we can all meet up to discuss the plan, so we wouldn't be over heard." I said quietly so that only the others could hear me.
"Why don't we just leave now?" He asked.
"Because Bex and Macy want to go to the PE barn, Liz wants to do some last minute research, and my mom wanted me to meet her in her office." I said the last part a little less enthusiastically, I could never know what my mom wanted when she called me down, though this time I had an idea.
"How about after Dinner," Macy said, "That way it'll be less noticeable that we're all gone at the same time."
Everyone nodded in agreement after a moment of silence.
"So, 1900 hours?" Bex said being the first to speak.
Again there was another round of nods.
Once everything was agreed upon we went our separate ways and I walked down to my mom's office. Knocking on the door I waited for a response, preparing myself for whatever it was she wanted to talk about. When the door opened I saw my Aunt Abby standing in the doorway, my mother at her desk, and Mr. Solomon sitting on the couch by the wall.
"Come on in Cammie." Abby said moving out of the way so I could enter.
I walk in the room and look at my mom's office, it was so familiar to me, something I've lived with and have known for what seemed like forever.
I smiled at Mr. Solomon briefly, I hadn't seen much of him since he had woken up, and I was glad to see he was looking like his old self again. Then I turned my attention to my mom, "What did you want to talk to me about?"
She cleared her throat slightly before she spoke, "I know that the seven of you are planning to go and save Preston Winters-"
"Seven?" I asked cutting her off.
"Yes, seven. You, Zachary, Rebecca, Macy, Elizabeth, Grant, and Jonas."
I just started at her for a moment.
"Don't look like you didn't think that I would know Cammie, I'm not the headmistress of a school for spys for nothing." She smiled at me, "Nothing gets past me without my knowing, well that and Zachary had come to be beforehand asking for permission."
I don't know which one impressed me more, my mom's abilities to know everything without even having to turn her head or Zach asking for permission to do something. Though that also meant that Grant and Jonas were here to stay unless my mom kicked them out.
"So yes I gave him permission, you four might think that you can handle this on your own, but you can't. The more help that you can get, the better." She stated leaving no room for argument.
"Your mom's right Squirt." Abby said talking a step forward, "This isn't like the time you snuck out of school to go meet up with that boy from Roosevelt." She gave me a wink when turned serious again, "Or one of the practice missions in class. Where the worst you get is the wrath of your mother or a bad grade if you mess up. If you mess up the consequences are much more."
I could tell that she was thinking about my father as she spoke. His one mistake cost him his life.
"I know what can happen…" I spoke looking at the ground, "You may have forgotten, that I was taken by the C.O.C, but I haven't. I know what one mistake can cost me." I was now looking up at each of them.
"We haven't forgotten…." My mother said standing up from behind her desk and walking over to me. She looked at me, not as a headmistress, nor a spy, but as a mother who scared for her child. "I know there's nothing we can do to stop you, but please be careful, and we want to be in touch with you the whole time…."
"Remember Cammie, "Mr. Solomon said speaking for the first time, "There are great spys out in the world, but the best spys are the ones who have a team to back them up along the way."
She smiled, "I know, and I have to best team of them all."
