Guess what guys! I'm back! :D

Asdfghjkl; I am addicted to these books and so happy that the 5th book came out. I read it and was like flipping my head off when- WAIT I WON'T SPOIL IT FOR YOU IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT! Okay so it was just amazing. I'm placing this story between the time period where Cammie was gone and yeah. You guys do not understand how much I love Zach. Like if I met him in real life, I would scream my freaking head off.

Okay, so no more ranting :P Hopefully you guys like this (:

The Pros and Cons of Not Going To P&E Anymore:

(A list written by Operative Cameron Anne Morgan)

PRO: You don't have to get beaten silly by a very strong British peer.

CON: You actually tend to miss that British peer.

PRO: You don't have to exercise and get beaten like a pulp.

CON: If you don't exercise as frequently as you should you tend to become sluggish in some areas and run a lot slower.

CON: There isn't any motivation to do anything.

CON: Italy's cobblestones are very hard to run on.

CON: Running from a tail that is closing in on your slow hiny becomes very difficult, and makes you very tired.

CON: When you're actually in that situation, everything that goes on is a CON.

I could feel my breath become very short, and in frequent burst. It scared me a little and I wanted to slow down just so I could check my heart rate. But I didn't because I couldn't.

I was having a hard time keeping my legs moving forward but luckily my brain had been wired to detect immediate danger and knew what to do in this situation.

So I kept running.

My legs were practically screaming at me stop this unbearable torture but when I turned my head to look behind me I saw more than three men approaching me. My brain started racking up ideas as quickly as possible.

1. Ask pedestrian for help.

2. Climb up a tree and cause a scene.

3. Jump in a cab and drive anywhere.

4. Face the men and attempt to beat them up with my rough around the edges self-defense.

5. Or go to Zach who was just stepping into the park I was desperately trying to get out of.

What? Zach? I almost stopped in my tracks when Zach laid eyes on me and he smiled. I quickly decided I needed to go to Zach. I ran as fast as my aching feet would carry me (which was pretty damn fast mind you) and collided into Zach. Taking him down on the grass, I hugged him and willed everything in my to stop from kissing him and not be some love-struck teenager who can't keep her hands off her kinda sorta almost boyfriend. Zack laughed nervously and placed his hands on my hips and I momentarily forgot where I was and what major trouble I was in.

"Three tails, right behind me and probably in 2:00 sea of people that passes through the park right about now." I said, while just running my fingers through Zach's hair, trying to look as girlfriend-ish as possible, I could hear the noises made from the people that came at this hour and tried my hardest not to be afraid. Zach huffed and I could smell the mint he had probably had earlier. I got up and helped him while he looked around as we hugged. It was a tactic we had always used when we did CovOps and it had 11.4% chance of failing and 99.9% of getting a good hug out of it(all percentages verified by Liz) and we were a good team.

"Identification?" He asked and I pulled him closer. Why did Zach have to smell so intoxicating and delicious right now?

"Three men wearing identical suits, pin-striped, with leather suitcases and black loafers, shaved heads and a mark on the left side of their forehead. All about six foot, and approximately 190 pounds each." Zach pulled away, tilting his head in a way that hid his face but didn't hide his eyes and gave the indication was looking at me but was really surveying the area.

"Did you try to fight them?" He was really asking, "Did they provoke you to turn on them?"

"No. But they used knives." I really said, "They chased me." This time Zach pulled me into a real hug, one where he dug his head into the crook of my neck, and I could feel him shaking like he was crying.

"I'm so glad you're safe." He whispered, and I could hear the tone of relief in his voice, and he wasn't crying he was just relieved that I was okay. My heart swelled that I had someone caring for me after two months of being so antisocial I was going insane. "We need to go, we need to leave. We can't get your stuff we have to leave." The bewildered look in his eyes scared me, and I don't scared very easily.

"Can we go back? Please. I just need to get one thing. One thing. That's it. A minute. We can spare a minute." I whisper, so desperate it wasn't even funny. Zach's eyes softened but his voice was still crazy.

"Okay, Gallagher Girl." I smiled and as we started walking away, Zach instantly froze and stared at me with his mouth slightly ajar. His hand flew up to his arm and blood was trickling down his skin. Someone knocked him to the ground and before I could scream, a gag was place around my mouth.

Someone help, please.

Then the world went dark.

So Cammie found Zach in Italy and now they're getting kidnapped? What? What's going to happen next? DUN DUN DUN!

I've decided to stay on this instead of The Runaway Train because this is already started and waaaay more interesting. (:

This is a cliff hanger and I love it! ^-^ So tell me whatchya guys think!
