Chapter 2

Gallagher Academy

"Girls listen up," said headmistress Morgan to the girls in the Great Hall one morning at breakfast. "Tomorrow the sophomore class will be going on a mission with Mr. Solomon, and that includes those on the R&D track. You will have to find someone but, someone will be also trying to find you."

Blackthorne

Meanwhile, the boys at Blackthorne were being told the exact same thing by Headmaster Morgan.

Cam's house

"Cam you know what's happening tomorrow," Joe asked me.

"Yes Joey. Don't worry, those boys and girls won't know what hit them," I said with a mischievous smile on my face. I haven't been on a mission in a month and was getting bored. The CIA director told me to prepare myself for what's coming so Joe's been trying me nonstop. When he's at Gallagher of Blackthorne teaching Co-Ops, I've been sneaking onto the grounds and training there. He figured out what was doing when snuck up to him in the Great Hall at breakfast last week and asked if I could have his muffin. I've never seen him more proud.

The Next Day

I was sitting at the mall in D.C on a park bench with a book in my hand. "Black jeans, white hello kitty shirt with black high-heeled zip up boots getting a hotdog," I said not lifting my eyes from the book.

"Ms. Sutton you have been compromised," Joe said as I watched her go and join the others who were out.

Five minutes later there was one boy left. I didn't have a name, just a description. "Joe I see him but I want to have a little fun with this," I say as I stand up and walk over to him with my head still in my book. I 'accidentally' run into him and fall onto the grass. "Sorry, I didn't see you there," I say as I look up at him. "Kevin! You said you were going to Florida for the week! Why did you lie to me? Oh we are so through!" I yell as people turn to stare at us.

"I'm sorry miss but I'm not Kevin, my name is Kyle." By the time he finally got away, he was three minutes late.

"Zach, you have been compromised," Joe said.

When Joe got back to the house where I was, he took one look at me before breaking out into laughter. "Pack up," he said when he finally calmed down.

"Already did. I'm ready to go to Blackthorne."

"How did you know that?" he asked staring at me with disbelief.

"You left your computer on and the director called. I don't get why I have to go, I'm already the best, he just thinks it will help with working with others in the future," I say scowling.

"It will, and when you get there, make an entrance," he said with a twinkle in his eye. Oh this was going to be fun.
