This is my second chapter. I was in class and bored when I wrote this, so I might change it based on the reviews from chapter one. Anyway…enjoy! This is from Yassen's perspective BTW.
Disclaimer: I do not own Alex Rider (sorry, I know it's very depressing but true!) :-p
Chapter 2- Friendly Kidnapping
I can tell Alex is surprised to see me alive. I remember what happened after I passed out. MI6 found me passed out next to Alex, and they took me to the hospital. Ironically, I was in the room right next to Alex, room 8. As soon as I was healthy enough, which took a lot of time, I escaped the hospital. I've been in hiding ever since. It's obvious that they never told Alex I survived.
I know Alex will follow me if given the chance; he'll be curious to know how I survived. I walk over to a small bathroom and go inside. I wait for about a minute, and then I start to worry. Maybe I've misjudged his curiosity. What if the Agent decides to come with him? The door opens and Alex comes in alone. I'm standing right by the door, so he sees me easily. He stops in front of me, examining me.
"So it's you. You're back." he says, trying to keep his cool.
"I passed out, and MI6 found me. They took me to the hospital. I was in room 8, right next to you. As soon as I was well enough, I escaped. I've been in hiding ever since." I explain simply.
"Why are you watching me?" he asks warily.
"Scorpia is hunting you. I suppose you know that already because there's an agent with you, protecting you."
"What's your point? Are you here to take me to them?" he snaps, getting agitated.
"No, I don't work with them anymore. They don't know I'm alive; only MI6 knows I'm alive." I say.
"Then why are you watching me?" he says, looking extremely confused.
"To protect you. Scorpia knows where you are right now; they know where Mrs. Jones' apartment is. The only place you'll be safe is with me, until MI6 can find and stop the people who are hunting you," I explain. I watch him carefully to see how he reacts to this.
"You're crazy if you think I'm just going to walk out of here with you. You're crazy if you think I trust you. You killed my uncle!" he snarls.
"I saved your life, twice! I worked with your father!" I say, keeping my voice as calm as possible.
"That doesn't matter! I don't trust you at all, and I never will! You don't even know the truth about my dad!" he says.
"What are you talking about?" I ask. The truth about John?
"He was a double agent for MI6," Alex says, calming down slightly.
"He…he worked for MI6?" this stuns me. John was like a father to me!
"Yes, they had a file on him." Alex says.
"All the more reason for you to come with me," I say, realizing this could be an angle.
"I'll never go with you willingly. Never." He says, and he turns around and bursts out of the door. Great, now I have to do this the hard way. If he stays with MI6 much longer, he's going to get captured and killed.
I race out the door after him, pulling out a tranquilizer gun. The Agent is running toward him, looking worried. I shoot one tranquilizer at the Agent, and another at Alex. The Agent falls down, but the tranquilizer that I shot at Alex misses by inches. He glances back and sees me chasing him. He glances at the agent, notices the dart, and starts running away. I shoot another dart at him, and it hits him in between his shoulder blades. He falls down in the grass, out cold.
I run over to him and pick him up. I carry him over to a car, where I lay him down in the back. I get into the car and drive away, toward the safe house I've been living in since I escaped MI6.
That's the second chapter! Really excited about where this story is going! I love writing these stories. Remember to R&R!
