Disclaimer: I Elizabeth admit, I do not know the Alex Rider series (Sigh)

Also I would like to thank my amazing beta for putting up with me when she definitely didn't deserve my stupidness. (Is that a word?)

Later that day Alex was in the back of a black sleek expensive car that MI6 liked to use. While his I-pod looking at the other families driving by to a normal person Alex seemed calm, but to the trained eye you could see almost nothing the face mask was that good. But when you looked hard enough you saw the signs of weariness that were strategically hidden within his face.

The car slowed to a stop, and Alex just looked as interested in leaving the car as eating grass, but he put his indifference face on and got up and left the car knowing that someone would move his stuff for him.

Alex walked into the sergeant's office and sat down with a look of boredom.

Sergeant's Point of View

The sergeant looked up in surprise but that soon turned to a look of distaste.

"Cub," The sergeant all but snarled at Alex. Quickly he scanned Alex. Skinny, maybe a little sickly with the clothes falling off his frame, but this hadn't stopped the boy from having muscle; it was there just kind of quiet. But what really stopped him were Alex's eyes. They were the same ember but there were the subtle but big differences in them. They were dead to say the least about them. There was no emotion swirling in his eyes that a trained professional couldn't even hide, it was just gone. The only other thing that you could read in there was the coldness behind them that made you want to shiver. The last person who had had (is that right?) eyes like that were Fox. No….It couldn't be….Could it?

Shaking his head to clear the unruly thoughts he turned to Alex, who hadn't moved a measure to start his rant about how he couldn't just walk in like he owned the place.

Alex's point of view

Alex just stood there watching the sergeant yell while he went over what he had found out. The sergeant had broken his left knee maybe three years ago, and it still pained him, also he favored his right arm and was type to pull on his hair when stressed.

All this Alex saw in an instant taking it and watching the sergeant rant not caring that it was directed to him.

When the sergeant finally round down Alex just said, "Can I go?" At this comment the sergeant was blowing steam at his ears.

"Sure, sure, whatever."

Alex made his way to the k-unit tent and walked in the tent and sat down in my old bed. No one was there yet, so he took a nap.

"What's he doing here?" Snake whispered.

"I don't know. Didn't know he was coming." Wolf murmured

"I did." Fox breathed calmly.

"Not fair." Eagle shouted forgetting to be quiet.

Alex being Alex had been awake and said to Eagle, "Shut the hell up will you." he asked in a deadly calm voice.

"Cub, don't tell your teammates to shut up, it doesn't end well," Fox said going over to his own bunk "And good night."

"Nighty, night to you too," Alex said then closed his eyes leaving the shocked faces in reality.
