"Fiona I can explain. You have to trust me when I tell you this. I didn't put these clothes on. And I know you better than you think."

"Are you trying to play some sick joke on me?"

"No Fiona I would never do that. Not even when I was a teenager."

"What are you talking about?"

"You tried kissed me. And I was surprised. I had saved your life in that tunnel but I didn't expect you to want me to kiss you"

"What are you talking about. The only person that knows about that died."

"I told you Id never kiss you. Maybe a little more meanly then I meant it."

"I saw your dead body."

"I was never dead. Just severely hurt. I don't want to hurt you. But you can not tell your dad who I am. I am on a mission. And I need you to help me with my cover."

"Maybe I don't wanna."

"I can talk to my boss about making you an honorary spy."

"You could do that?"

"If you help."

She began to laugh. "If only you knew Alex? Or my dad. Your offer is not as good as the one I went with. I am actually a spy. Good thing my daddy don't know. I mean his daughter working for the other side. Against him." she laughed some more. "Oh and my bosses will love that I am bringing them the legendary Alex Rider."

"You TRAITOR."

"Oh that is not the most flattering word for it. How about lets not mention it again." she said pulling out a gun. "I knew if I cornered you, you would admit you were the Alex I remembered."

"Why would you betray your father?"

"My father barely even knows me. I spent most of my teenage years in boarding schools. He didn't want to see me just as much I didn't want to see him. And as soon as I got an offer to betray my own father I jumped."

"do you hate your family that much?"

"He brought people like you in and out of my house all the time. I never was able to get close to them. They always left."

"Fiona you have to love your father a little bit."

"I do but my mission has nothing to do with him. You know him coming today will be the first time ive seen him in almost 8 months."

"What is your mission?"

"Secret."
