Spy School Switched Up

Interrogation

Hey spylings! No chapters will be posted this weekend, so we thought we should do a double post. Back to Ivy!

                                                        Ivy's POV

I take a deep breath before stepping onto the campus. I have not been here in half a year. Don't let yourself get distracted I tell myself. I came here extra early just to make sure I can check on my friends and enemies. I go down to the underground tunnels. Even though Josh showed me where every camera was, it was safer to be down here. Plus, I had to see another person before I got to Ben. I walk underneath the school before I enter a secret tunnel that leads up to the dorm rooms. I walk down the hall. Room 301, room 302, room 303, and stop outside out room 317. I stop before walking in. My heart is beating faster than I ever thought it would. I pick the lock on the door and step inside to see

a girl sleeping peacefully. Of all the times I have seen her, this is the most peaceful she has been. Maybe now would not be the time to explain all that is going on. I slowly walk out of the room, close the door, and lock it. I'd rather no one knowing that I visited a second room today. I walk up some more stairs, making sure to take out every camera. Joshua surely knew where every camera was set up. I guess the rumor of him and Erica knowing every camera, secret passage, and hiding spot in the school was true. I stop at the door of my next victim. I easily pick the lock and walk inside. I almost laugh at how easy this is. Ben is a complete idiot. I take out my gun and shove it up his nose, and say, "rise and shine kid!" I make sure to make my voice lower and more masculine to throw people off my track. Ben quickly woke up and jumped back. I start to laugh and say, "man, you should've seen the look on your face. It was classic."

Ben's response was almost comical, he cowered in the corner and said, "please don't kill me."

I glower back in response, "Whether I kill you or not is entirely up to you. Let's see how well you play ball."

He looks around the room for an escape and then sees that the only way out of this was to do what I say. He turns back to me and says, "What do you want?"

I glare back at him, trying to look intimidating. "Tell me about Pinwheel."

He looks surprised, "Pinwheel? What's Pinwheel?"

My suspicions were right, but it was not time to gloat. I still needed to scare the CIA. I look back at him and angrily say, "You know damn well what it is. Don't play stupid with me."

He looks super frightened now. "I'm not playing. I really am stupid!" He looks back up to me and questions, "are you sure you have the right guy?"

I freak out for a minute. "You're Benjamin Ripley, right?"

"Uh, no"

I start to worry. I had one job and I messed it up. I need to figure out who this kid is and kill him, so I ask him, "then who are you?"

He answers, "Jonathan Monkeywarts."

I start to get frustrated. Why is everyone making a fool out of me. I'm scary. So, I move forward and send him flying out of his bed. "You think that's funny? You think this is all a game?"

"No, I don't"

I smirk, "then let's try this again. And if you try anything else, I will shoot you. What is Pinwheel?"

He does exactly what I want him to do and stall for time, "Who told you I knew about Pinwheel?"

"What do you think? It's in your file," I respond. I don't want him knowing about our moles.

"The thing is, it's a, well."

I interrupt, "stop stalling or I will shoot you!"

He looks me in the eye and says, "it has to do with cryptography."

Ugh I need to speed up this conversation before Joshua thinks I got caught. "No kidding it has to do with cryptography. I want to know what it does."

"It helps you circumvent a rotating sixteen-character daisy chain."

He seemed so certain in his answer I start to second guess myself. What if he actually did it. "Really?"

"Yes"

Just to make sure he is not lying, I ask, "how?"

"First you have to set up a quadrilateral subnet matrix, then ossify the syntax, and fibrillate the coprolites."

I start to get very angry. "Before you say anything else, there are two things you should know. I'm not an idiot. And I've run out of patience. Don't say I didn't warn you."

Right before I would have shot him, he hits me in the head with a tennis racket. I pretend to be knocked out. He runs to go get help and I make sure that I did not leave anything to incriminate myself. Right before I leave, I hear someone enter the room.  

Cliffy! Hehe. Who entered the room? Did they see Ivy? You will find out on Monday.
