Cammie POV

Jace and I were walking through the corridors together when suddenly his watch and my necklace flashed white, telling us the director wanted to see us. We stopped walking and exchanged glances. Both of us knew that the director was not a man you wanted to keep waiting. There had been many 'mysterious disappearances' over the last few years that proved that. I knew Jace was thinking the same things I was (this whole reading-each-others-minds-thing is something that will happen if you happen to live every hour of your life with someone), so we turned around and set off at a fast pace to the Director's office. When we arrived at our destination, we were at what seemed to be a dead end in the titanium halls, but if you looked closely, there was a small circle on the wall that was slightly darker than the rest. I pressed my necklace into it and suddenly the floor beneath me gave way and I was falling. Being a trained assassin, I landed on the balls of my feet, my legs absorbing all the impact, and looked around, my mind taking in all the details of the room, as if I hadn't already been here too many times to count. Jace soon landed beside me and did the same things I had done. I was in the small room outside the director's office. The room looked harmless, but really if you put your foot in one wrong place, you'd be electrocuted with such high voltage it would mean immediate death. It might sound scary to you, but Jace and I had heard it all before, so we simply hopped on all the safe spots and knocked lightly on the Directors office.

"Come in." Came the voice from inside.

I opened the door and stepped into the room, Jace shut the door behind us. It had only taken us 1 minute and 7 seconds to get here, so I wasn't worried; besides, Jace and I were the best teenage assassins here, so they'd think twice before killing us.

"Shadow, Chameleon," he said, inclining his head to us (yes, he uses our codenames when he talks to us), "Sit."

We complied and sat down in the two chairs in front of his desk. We waited patiently for him to start.

"I have a mission for you two. There is a new target, one that only you two will have access to. It won't be like all your other missions; this one includes infiltration. There are two CIA supported spy schools in this country: Gallagher and Blackthorne, heard of them?" We both nodded—Joe taught at Gallagher and on occasion at Blackthorne, the brother school.

"Well, soon the two schools will be having an exchange," At this, I was surprised; the two schools didn't even know the other existed. I didn't let it show on my face though, keeping on my emotionless mask.

"Which is a perfect opportunity to get close to your target. You see, your target is a student. A Gallagher girl, going by the name of Macey McHenry." As in the senator's daughter? I didn't know she was a spy…

"Yes she is a spy, and she is also a descendant of one Gillian Gallagher." He narrowed his eyes at the mention of her name.

"So you see why it is of upmost importance that she is killed off. However, there have been some attempts, which have all failed due to her high social standing, resulting in 24/7 security on her. So it has been decided, our two best teenagers shall join Gallagher and Blackthorne, participate on the exchange, grow close to the subject, and kill her." He finished. Hmm… sounds easy enough.

"Any questions?"

"What are our covers, sir?" I asked. He handed us two blue manila folders whilst saying,

"These are your covers: learn them, love them, live them. We've kept most of your key information, such as names and age, the same to avoid confusion as this is your first major mission, but you will have to slightly change your appearance. As well as this, you are much better trained than they are and you must not stand out. I know this sounds easy for you two, being pavement artists, however I mean it most sincerely. You can't look like you know more than them; you can't show off. You must not let on how much you can really do." We nodded to show our understanding and got up off our chairs and made for the door.

"You leave in 2 days, make sure you're ready; failing isn't an option." He said in a serious tone. Wow, the man really knows how to lighten the mood, huh? Jace and I kept on our masks until we were out of the Director's office, when we began to grin. I looked at him and saw there was a spark of excitement in his eyes, which I'm sure was in mine, too. My first major mission. And I get to do it with Jace right alongside with me. This was going to be fun.
