I would just like to thank everyone for their reviews and I will try to use all your advice.
I would also like to apologise for the underlining and bolding in the previous chapter. If you felt annoyed just take into consideration it was my first ever chapter and trust me I was ten times annoyed as you where about the mess up.
Alex cursed. Why here?
"N-now I want everyone to s-stay here and k-keep calm" said the teacher trying and failing to keep everyone calm. With all the panic no one noticed him slip out of the classroom. (it was not as if they noticed him in the first place anyway)
He quickly took in the classroom on the other side which was thankfully empty . There was dust every where and a hole in the wall which allowed him to see into the classroom. The bomb had been placed in the back of the classroom by . Had there been people in there , there would have probably been only two or three killed and possibly several injured which puzzled him. Were the people not too heartless or just amateurs . What bothered him really though was close the school had come to losing lives . In ten minutes the bell would go and that classroom would fill wit students. He one of them. Also he being the one who sat nearest to the bomb .
His investigation was halted to a close as a stampede of students filed out of their classrooms to the nearest fire escape
The school piled out and watched as police and bomb squads filed into the school. Half an hour later they got the all clear . The principal then informed them to go home and that to come into school tomorrow where they would receive further details.
Alex cycled home his mind filled with unanswered questions. He cycled into his driveway and dismounted his bike. As he walked into his house he could hear all the tell tale signs of his guardian Jack. Music on full blast and the loud noise of the Hoover.
Jack being so caught up in the music and her job didn't even notice Alex standing in front of her, until he pushed the off button on the Hoover and turned down the music. "Oh , hi Alex" she said She then looked at the clock noticing the time. "What happened?" she demanded . She was going to throw a fit. Now or never he said to himself. "Bomb went off in our school . Don't worry no ones hurt or injured". He could see Jack mentally counting to ten. "Have they talked to you?" she asked , both knowing who 'they' were. "No , they-" he was interrupted by the phone ringing. Alex felt like saying 'guess who?'as he picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Alex its Mr Crawley"
"Do you know who did this?"
"No. Have you any idea of who might do this"
"Scorpia at a wild guess, but they did make a deal"
"True. Be at the school tomorrow Mr Blunt and Mrs Jones will fill you in."
"At school, hang on what do you mean?" Crawley had already hung up.
The student and teachers of Brookland filled up the hall quickly eager for news. Alex quickly noted the people standing up on the stage the principal and vice principal, Mr Blunt, Mrs Jones and a man who he had not expected to see in a long while the sergeant from back at Brecon Breacons.
The principal had then started on the long speech of thanking everyone for their bravery and co operation . "Now there is now need to fear as the government have assigned us with guards until we find the suspect". Alex let out an inner groan. "Also as most of the east wing will be unusable due to reconstruction we have come up with a plan. As there will not be a lot of space in the school . The SAS have kindly offered some places for the next two weeks in which you will be trained by them." Alex had a feeling that this idea was more MI6 than SAS "So classes Vancouver and Tokyo will be attending this course". The school instead of using names like 5A for their classes used names of cities. Why did they have to pick Tokyo ? Why? Why? Alex felt like hitting his head off something.
The seargent then stepped forward "You will need only some underwear and a toothbrush, everything else will be provided for. If your on any medication , bring it. Get a slip from the from the principal for you parents to sign. Bus leaves at 0900 hours sharp. If your late, you miss it. We are not waiting for anyone"
Alex couldn't believe his class was so excited. For all the obvious reasons he didn't share in their excitement.
"The bomb failed. Why?" demaded the man
"Faulty sir, I think .It wont happen again"
"It had better not. Leave"
"Yes sir" on which he quickly exited the room.
He turned to his brother "what do you think?"
"Killing Alex Rider may be difficult but I'm sure they will be much amusement in it"
Alex hung back after the speech as everyone went out of assembly hall. He caught Mrs Jones give as subtle nod in the direction of an empty room. He followed her and Mr Blunt to it. Giving a quick glance around to make sure no one else was watching he slipped in closing the door.
"Hello Alex" said Blunt .
"What the hell is going on?" he demanded
"Where you not listening to us during the speech Alex?" he scolded as if speaking to a bold child.
"Yes, but why there". Mrs Jones took out another peppermint and put it into her mouth. "Well you see the thing is Alex, someone is trying to kill you".
"Oh really, I didn't notice" his voice dripping with sarcasm. She frowned "Alex please. We don't who is trying to kill you so we are sending you there for your safety".
"Okay but why send the class too?"
"Well I believe the teachers are starting to disbelieve you about being sick" said Blunt "so perfect excuse, also they have nowhere else to go school is full.". Alex just nodded SAS training was one thing but SAS training with his classmates?
"Don't worry" said Blunt "I'm sure you'l have fun"
That was sarcasm. It was, wasn't it?
For all you SAS lovers yes Brecon Breacons. BUT it will be for only one or two chapters before the real plot starts coming out and its bye bye B.B. . SO mainly this isn't one of those stories.
Tell me what you think and how to improve.
Should I make the chapters longer?
Do you like the mystery men? Any ideas who they are?
