I was sat at the bar drinking a coke when Mrs Russo came up to me "Cassy I know you're bored sometimes when everyones busy, so, I was wondering if you'd like a job here?" she asked hopefully, I nodded "Yeah that would be great, thank you" I said, she smiled and went back into the kitchen "what did my mom want?" Max asked leaning on the sweeping brush "she offered me a job" I replied "Here?" he asked, I nodded "Awsome"

he said before going back to his sweeping "Zeke thinks Mason smells like a dog because he doesn't know that Mason actually is a dog" Max said amused "what's you're excuse?"Justin asked, I snickered, suddenly alarms started going off and no one knew what was going on "I don't know everybody let's get out of here" Mr Russo said "Cassy come on" Max said taking my hand, we tried running through the back but some guy's in blue suits came in,

we then tried the front door but there was a yellow corridor blocking it, another bunch of blue men came out only this time followed by a man in a suit, we all stood in between them "Good morning Russo family I'm agent Lambwood from, well I can't tell you because it's a secret department from the US government" he said "We've had you're family under surveillance for months" he finished "Oh no dad, they found out our soda's are mostly ice" Alex said, I rolled my eyes "we know you're wizards" Lambwood said, oh crud "Can I offer you some ice with a splash of soda and we'll talk about how ridiculous that is"

Alex said "Not at 3.85 a cup you can't, take em away" Lambwood said, the men advanced on us and I ran, 2 of them grabbed me "No! let me go!" I screamed struggling, I felt my eyes go red but I knew I couldn't do that, I don't wanna hurt anyone, I calmed down and let them drag me.

They took us to their secret base and we were thrown into a cell like place "Gee, I wonder how they found out, Alex" Justin said accusingly "Me? The government are always looking at nerds, threats or recruits so which one are you?" she asked him, I sat down on the hard bench "Hey everyone stop it we need to stick together as a family, no one tell them anything, they can't find out were you know what's" Mr Russo said "wait what's a you know what is it related to like a unicorn or something?"

Max asked confused, I giggled "I'll tell them it was me, they'll keep me and let you guy's go" I said "No Cassy you're not, were staying with you" Alex said "Dad I have my mini wand hidden in my boot, I can use it to get us out of here" Alex said happily "Thank you for the toothpick Alex, I had a little stuff stuck here" Mr Russo said "I don't want them to know were wizards there's hidden camera's everywhere" he mumbled, he started choking "I think I just took care of it" he said through cough's

"Dad what do you think they want with us?"Justin asked "I don't know but I hope they hurry I need to take a wiz" Mrs Russo said "..ards" Lambwood added popping up beside the cell "I think I've heard enough, welcome wizards" Lambwood said, he had the door opened and he came in "I brought you here so the US government can have a better understanding of how you creatures work" he said smiling, creatures? Now that was insulting "Creatures? Look I know that Justin's funny looking but don't lock me in with him" Alex said, I blanked out for a bit

"Now if you just answer us a few questions about being wizards It'd be swell, how do you get you're powers?" Lambwood asked, Mr Russo sat down and we all stayed quiet, Lambwood chuckled "Oh the silent treatment, well I guess I'll have to interview you separately, who wants to go first?" Lambwood asked, Max raised his hand "Okay Max you're up" Lambwood said "No I just had a question" Max said "Alright what's you're question?" Lambwood asked "Can I go first?"Max asked, I rolled my eyes and he was lead out.

So far they interviewed Max and Alex, Justin was still in the room "I bet you he caves" I piped up "He wouldn't do that" Mr Russo said unsurely "Okay. 20 bucks say's he caves" I said "Deal" Alex said, I smiled and waited for Justin's return, he finally came back only looking smug "I brought us, a hamburger" he said lifting it up, Max took it from him and dug in "hey" I whined, he tore it in half and gave one of them to me,

I smiled and took a bite "They gave Justin a hamburger he must have rolled over, what did you tell them?" Alex asked "Did you tell them were you know what's?" Mr Russo asked, Justin nodded, both Alex and Mr Russo gasped "Pay up Alex" I said through a mouthful of burger, she groaned and handed me the money "did they let you use the bathroom, was it worth it?" Mrs Russo asked angrily "Look everything is gonna be okay alright I'm a hero, you're all going home, I'm staying behind, to save my country and defend the impending alien attack"

Justin said proudly, oh great "what are you talking about?" I asked after finishing my burger "that's why were here, they needed my help, they have an alien recording of a battle call I translated for them" he said, I rolled my eyes "And you all made fun of me for learning the language but I knew it would come in handy" he said "You mean you translated something in a language that you and you're weirdo friends made up? They had that on surveillance and used it against you"

Alex snapped "No it was real, it had static, I assure you guy's everything is gonna be okay" he said surely, a voice came over the speaker "Attention all staff retreat we tricked the kid into telling us their wizards, thank Justin Russo everyone we don't have to stay late tonight, way to go everybody" the voice said, we all glared at Justin "Congratulations man, they said you're name" Max said patting Justin, he looked guilty.
