Day 94

For the final test the remaining four recruits boarded a plane, it was a private jet owned by the military and so the inside luxurious. "Hell yeah!" Calum yelled excitedly rushing to one of the seats. He instantly reclined once he'd sat down and sighed. "This is gonna be the best sleep I've had in days..." Slowly drifting off to sleep with all the other recruits sitting into their on seats.

"Look! There are In-flight TVs!" Said mark. Jamie was simply sat there looking surprised. "Is this the first time any of you have been in a plane?" He asked. The others looked at him with a questioning stare. "What?"

The first to reply was Kate "this is a private jet... Not all planes are like this..."

"Really?" Jamie replied with genuine surprise spread across his face

"Wait... Jamie? You've been on planes like this before?" Calum asked having woken from his light and very short nap. "Well yeah, I thought all planes were like this.. Are they not?" Everyone blinked. 'Was it something I said?' Jamie thought to himself.

The three recruits sighed 'he must have been a rich kid before he came here...' Had been their exact thoughts on the matter. They were just settling in and getting ready for take of when Mr Speaks and James Adams walked in through the main hatch. Ever since Jamie paralysed Speaks he'd been on alert waiting for something to come his way but nothing did, only slightly more and cruel punishments and he guessed the man was saving the worst till the very end.

A few hours later they reached their destination, A small island. This island had only two towns and one of which had been completely deserted, left in disarray and had long gone past safe. The plane landed on a small airfield inside the used town all the way on the other side of the island.

The recruits had been told that the only items that would be of use would be clothing, the rest of their equipment would be provided meaning Jamie was the only one who carried extra. Then again this was only a small sack with his pills in, he'd rarely had to use and his mask that he'd come to think of as a good luck charm.

"Alright you little maggots. For your final-test your gonna have to follow the instructions inside each of your packs" the young soon to be agents looked around however there were no bags to be found. "Did you really think this would be easy? your packs have been hidden throughout the town... Oh, you needn't worry about them being stolen, the residents here are used to our training, considering a lot of them worked in the intelligence services." Speaks face stretched wide forming his annoying grin.

'Shit...' Had been the only thought going through Jamie's mind. Speaks began to hand out small pieces of paper each containing hints to the whereabouts of each trainees' pack. The only problem was they were written in different languages.

Once speaks had buggered off Jamie whispered to his partner "Kate, pass yours here" she nodded, instantly passing her piece of paper into his outstretched palm.

"Let's see... " Jamie muttered a few intangible phrases before smirking. "This is Bullshit... Oi Calum, what's yours like?" He called out.

"It's behind a counter, Mark's says which building but the only problem is he can't understand it... What about yours?" Jamie smiled wryly.

"Up there" the place he pointed to had been most definitely the tallest place in the small town On top of one off the Radio pylons. "I bet you wished you never pissed Speaks of now huh" Calum replied. "Well, either way we'll let you get to it. Mark and I will search the different buildings" the pair walked off towards the centre of town leaving Kate and Jamie to their own devices.

"So, how we gonna get them down?" Kate asked tapping on Jamie's shoulder who replied with actions. Pulling his mask over his face and snapping his fingers he proceeded to the base of the massive metal radio-mast. "Simple, I'll go and get them" before Kate could even think of a rebuke he was already out of reach and scaling the metal structure. "Your insane!" He heard her yell and his rely was a simple one. "You just realised!?" There was a hint of excitement and laughter and in ten minutes he found himself at the top, it was only then he realised how high-up he was. "Oh naw, don't tell me I'm scared of heights now" he muttered.

Clearing his head of any useless thoughts, an advantage of his Darker-side he tried to unhook the packs. The only problem was trying to do so with only one hand's not a very fun thing, not to mention if he tried to use both hands he'd find himself sitting in hospital with a broken neck.

Eventually, Jamie wrapped his arm and locked it around one of the beams stabling himself and allowing for movement with both arms even if it was only a little.

"...and... Got it!" He muttered as he unhooked the first pack, now here came the tricky part, un-hooking the second pack.

He wasn't sure what was inside either of the packs but there was Likely to be something important, that was fragile so dropping it from this height would result in failure. Although it took a few minutes Jamie managed to get the first pack on his back and swiftly moved onto the second one. An even trickier problem as he now had less room to move and constantly getting pulled back from the weight if the pack on his back.

He heard a shout from bellow "don't fall!" A weary grin crossed his face, having someone tell him not to fall often worked wonders... And they often ended up falling anyway. He shook his head to clear himself of these stupid thoughts and unhooked the second bag. He slung it over his shoulder and slowly and carefully made his way to the bottom.

He found Kate at the bottom and passed the second pack to her. Immediately Afterwards Jamie retrieved one of the many tablets sitting in his pouch and popped it into his mouth. "I'm never doing that again" Jamie muttered as he pulled his own pack off to check its contents. "Here's the set of instructions, or at least my half" Kate said as she empties her pack.

Inside the two bags were numerous different things ranging room knives to bug repellant .

"Have they always done this? Split the instructions into two along with having either in different languages?" Jamie asked, although he has no problem with it it's still gotta be hell for some agents. "Yeah, it's one of the ways they test us on how well we learnt our set language." Jamie sighed, he felt sorry for Calum and Mark, with one of them having trouble understanding the notes they wouldn't last long.

"So what, we gonna keep?" the pack had been filled with useless junk that wouldn't be needed. "We'll take it all, or at least only one of each item" they re packed their bags and read through their notes. "Head to the small shack on the left side of the Forrest..."

"Great..." The pair having finally found their packs and consequently their next set of instructions they headed into the green Forrest unsure as to what could happen they stayed alert. Jamie had taken both of the knives and slung their scabbards on either side of his waist.

Upon entering the Forrest they were plunged into a gloomy atmosphere, the trees made a natural canopy blocking the sunlight. "Does it tell us where the shack is?"

"You mean the map or the note?"

"Wait we have a map?"

"Your hopeless you know that?"

"Possibly" he looked back grinning, these kinds of conversations passed the time . Apparently Kate's note had their route they had to take, along with when they had to reach it, which was within an hour, needless to say they made it, after getting lost about five times.

"This place is a dump!" Jamie yelled "how long do we have to rest?" The shack was a simple structure made of corrugated iron and bricks, nobody could be sure it was safe. "We've got ten minutes to rest" Kate replied.

"Great..." The pair sat down inside, finding their next set of notes along with another set, likely belonging to Calum and Mark. "They're not here yet?"

"Yeah... And if they don't hurry they're not gonna pass" another five minutes later the Calum and Mark appeared panting and sweating it was obvious they had run the whole time.

"Jesus, if you were any later" The newly arrived pair caught their breath and sat down leaning in on the corrugated iron. "We searched every store and it just happened to be the very last one in the street" Calum replied.

"You know... If Mark could have read his note you would have been here before us."

"Whatever... " Calum took both notes in his hand and read through his own before trying his newest to understand the Gibberish that is Mark's note. "Pass it here" Jamie said, taking he note into his had he mumbled a few gargles words before looking back to Calum. "Have you got a pen?" Mark passed Jamie a pen and he wrote a translated version on the back. "Here" passing it back he stood up and made a few stretches. "We'd better get going, this next part I'm guessing is the longest." The two pairs set off in two separate directions.

It was only five minutes into the walk when Jamie started shivering uncontrollably. "What's up? You alright?" She asked but their was no reply, instead Jamie stopped walking. "Hey why'd you st-" a small spider had made a small stringy web and suspended itself just before him. Kate could easily tell he was scared, Jamie was shaking terribly and wouldn't budge. "Hey... Are you alright?" The spider still didn't move. "Don't tell me, your. Scared of spiders aren't you?" Jamie shook his head.

"A-any bug..." Kate sighed, grabbing the silk thread woven by the Spider and threw it aside. "Better?" He nodded and the pair continued.

There were no other problems and they eventually made it to the last checkpoint

With Calum and Mark following shortly behind. The last instructions they were given, were to survive the night.
