Kevin awoke the next morning to the empty house, he rolled out of bed, getting himself ready for the day. After getting ready he walked down the hallway, glancing into the empty bedroom that is usually occupied by his sister. His heart was still heavy from the night before, he was just trying to help. Kevin sighed as he made his way back to the living room, his phone startling him as his ringtone blared loudly. Kevin ran back to his room, quickly picking up the phone "This is Kevin." The voice on the other end spoke "Kevin, it's Gary ." Kevin smiled, recognizing the voice as it spoke. Gary, an old friend of his family, a man who knew about the secret corporation his father worked for more than he knew about anything else. The man that helped him and May May become who they were today, and stay off the radar. Kevin spoke " Gary ! Long time! How's it going?" Gary 's voice stayed serious when he spoke "We need to meet. Today. Lunch. Do you remember where my place is?" Kevin spoke quickly "Yeah, I think I can find it." Gary spoke "Be there." Before hanging up the phone abruptly. Kevin glanced at the clock, he had to leave soon if he was gonna make it to Gary 's place on time.
Kevin grabbed the phone, his hand habitually calling May May's number, Kevin stopped himself before he pushed send. "She's fine." He said to himself, taking a deep breath, before dropping the phone into his pocket, and heading out to his car.
The drive went by quickly for Kevin, as he turned down the dirt road that was leading out to a small shack, that looked like it sat in the middle of a swamp. Kevin opened the door of his car, his feet sinking on the soggy ground, as he stomped his way up the driveway, finally making it to the wooden shack type house. Knocking on the door once, he waited before the door opened quickly, taking a step in, as the door immediately shut behind him, locking securely in place. Kevin looked around the shack, the inside looking nothing like the outside, it was filled with computer screens and systems and what Kevin was sure was enough computers and programs to make anyone disappear if they wanted to, and Gary was the man to do it. Gary walked out of the back room "Kevin my boy!" he said smiling as he hugged the large man. Kevin smiled as the hug broke and he sat down at the table as Gary took the seat across from him. "Where's our girl?" Gary asked suspiciously, as Kevin spoke solemnly "She's with some friends." Gary looked concerned when he asked "Can you trust these friends?" Kevin nodded his head, "Yeah, they're clean…I've done the checks" Gary smiled wide, leaning back in his chair, "You're dad taught you good." Kevin nodding at the compliment when Gary leaned forward, resting his arms on the table "Look, the reason I called you." He said before emptying a large envelope onto the table as papers flew onto the bare table. Kevin looked at the papers, his worst nightmare coming true, as he read the stats of his sister, her picture included in the information. Gary spoke softly "They know she's alive." Kevin looked to the older man "How?" Gary shrugged his shoulders, before answering "I don't know. Her file was manually put into the system. If something came up on the scans I would of seen it." Gary explained as Kevin began reading the sheets, trying to figure out just how much information they knew about his sister.
Throwing the papers down on the table, Kevin ran his hand through his hair before talking "So why haven't they made their move yet?" Gary waited a moment before speaking "From what I can tell, they don't know her location as of yet." Kevin smiled wide before speaking "So you're telling me this corporation that has millions of dollars worth equipment, tracked her down but they don't know her location?" Gary spoke calmly "Doesn't mean they won't find her…" Kevin nodded his head when he spoke softly "So what do I do?" Gary leaned forward, his eyes pouring into Kevin's "You need to watch her, keep her close, this is not the time for you to let her go. You know this corporation, and you know how ruthless they are. You also know it only takes one mistake, and they'll get her." Kevin nodded his head.
An hour later Kevin sat in his car as he headed back to Orlando . His mind on all the information he was just told, as he pulled up to a red light.
Flashback
" Timing, Handiness, Interference, No Barriers, and Knowledge" Kevin's father spoke happily as he sat on the floor next to the 18 month old Madison. Madison happily piled the wooden blocks on top of each other as she spoke "Dada!" smiling as her father repeated "That's right Madison."
Kevin sat on the couch in his parent's house, watching his father play with his baby sister. "Dad, I seriously doubt a 2 yr old is ready to start training for her espionage career" Kevin said, as his dad looked to him with a stern face "You'd be surprised what children absorb, even at a young age." A smile came to Kevin's features as his mom walked into the room, sitting on the other chair across the room "So Kevin any girls in your life?" Kevin rolled his eyes as he spoke "Mom…" he warned as his mother smiled wide.
"Madison, remember…when you get in trouble…always THINK…Timing, Handiness, Interference, No Barriers, and Knowledge" he spoke again to the barely 2 yr old. Madison looking confused before repeating "Think!" causing her father to smile as he reached out, pulling the small girl on to his lap, before looking over to Kevin "She's definitely one of us!"
End Flashback
The horns honking from behind him, as the light turned green shook Kevin out of his flashback. His father worked hard to teach Madison everything, and he made sure he continued her teaching. He wouldn't let them get to her, not now, not after everything. He wasn't sure how he was gonna be able to protect her
