AN: ok no joke, that song up there is from Charlie and the chocolate factory and says "come with me" in it! BUT out of 9,971 songs, Spotify started playing this first. Conspiracy not coincidence! Short chapter I do realise but that was 2 chapters roughly at the same time.

P.S  THIS CHAPTER CONTINUES FROM CHAPTER 25.

Previously

The door opened "Cub!" Alex turned around "Come with me."

I have no idea what to name this chapter!!

Alex exited the hut, laughter gone as soon as the sergeant entered with a stern face. He followed the sergeant most of the way in silence, distant gun shots from training echoed around them

"We... have some issues..." the sergeant began and broke the silence "err- Jones will explain more."

Alex nodded, curiosity flowing through his mind, is this another mission? I hope not. Why is she here though, what else could it be apart from a mission?

The sergeant lead him inside the hut and sure enough, in the middle of the room stood Mrs Jones

"Ah Alex! How are you?"

"Really Tulip? Formality? Seriously? You know quite well we don't bother with that. Did you stop pestering Smithers to come back into the business? I'm happy he's gone, he has a chance at normal life now."

"Alex-"

"Right yes, why have I been brought here? why are you here?" Alex slouched and leaned against a wall, the sergeant looked at him in confusion.

"A few problems have come to arise-" she tried to speak

"Cut to the chase Tulip!"

"Scorpia" Alex flinched "and nightshade" another flinch "have caused some more problems, having all the teens and you here isn't going to help."

"So, what's going to happen?" Alex said, slipping into business mode.

Glad that Alex finally started to properly cooperate, Mrs Jones spoke again "Most  of them are moving to America and Australian training camps where they will be joined with more children and teenagers from all over the world whom have either connections with you or a big part to play in the present and future economy and law."

"When?"

"As soon as possible. Which is?" She turned to the sergeant and directed that question at him.

"Afternoon maybe. If we get them to start getting ready now, we can get them moving by 1600 hours minimum. "
