Chapter 22

Violet took the bed down stairs seeing that people we're upstairs. The TV was frozen like Jerry TV had been before she left Newcastle while the husband and wife who owned the place we're frozen with the rest of the world. Jerry picked one of the beds upstairs while Agent One slept downstairs. The bedroom downstairs must just be for guess because there we're two single beds and one King size bed along with a long wall mirror. Agent One slept in the King bed while Violet happily slept in the single bed. She stared at the brick wall beside her.

She couldn't help, but shake the feeling that Smith was tracking there every move and the movement she saw before going to bed was actually another mind worm. She wanted to get going to a Magic Force base at once, but Agent One still hadn't remembered the number.

Unable to sleep Violet sat up and stared at the carpet for a bit before picking herself out of bed and walking up the steps. Maybe she can find this hidden base that the late Agent Eighty-eight had. She knows the house had been solid since the woman death, but she also knows sometimes some families let new house owners keep a few, thing and if Agent Eighty-eight was old than maybe she was like her grandmother. Her grandmother kept all sorts of paper work in a large file in her room. Walking up the steps she noticed one room with a single bed and another room with two, single bed. It was also the room where Jerry was. Her cousin slept peacefully as Violet wandered into the large bedroom. No, doubt the married couple slept here due to the King size bed. There was a counter near the side where makeup and wallets we're kept along with a few pens and a notebook nearby.

As for Violet though she kept the cupboards and found some women clothing, but what she noticed was a file that said odd stuff. Raising an eyebrow, she picked up the file flipped through it smiling as she understood why it was label odd stuff.

"Violet?"

"Hey, Jerry. Did I wake you?"

"Nah, not really." Jerry said putting on a shirt as he rubbed the sleep out of his eye. "What's that?"

"Agent One is having a hard time remember what Eighty-eight password is so I figured to start looking."

"But the house is owned by other people now."

"I know, but you know how some families work. Sometimes things get left behind or sometimes the recently moved in family is allowed to keep the stuff the family doesn't want. And, I figured maybe these people got some of Eighty-eight stuff."

"I find that hard to believe with your situation. Wouldn't that stuff be kept under major wraps?"

"Nah. Head Leaders in the past had always allowed it to let people think it was fantasy. It saves a lot of trouble and you be amazed how much the human mind will happily think that what they saw wasn't magic at all. Like this it has some really cool drawings."

It even had a drawing of Younkin Kitsune. Along with a few Agents playing around with their magic, some shapeshifting, some spell casting some causing things to float along with people like Neddy who had their eyes closed. The more she flipped though she soon found what she was looking for.

"Is that a hole?" Jerry asked.

A hole underneath the swimming pool. Her eyes widen and dashed out of the bedroom with Jerry following her. She went into the room with the single bed and pulled back the currents. It had the best view of the backward and there was the pool.

The hole was drawn as if it was under the pool.

"The base is under the pool."

"But what about the password?"

She skimmed read the file flipping through the pages as fast as she can, but it was the last page that had some footnotes. Go through the file again. This time read the pictures, it read.

"Read the pictures?" Violet wondered out loud.

"Are the pictures a clue?" Jerry asked.

Younkin Kitsune, shapeshift, see no evil.

Violet third there on the fifth page there was too words that said combine password.

"I think the magic she mentioned in the first three pages is the password."

"Younkin Kitsune, shapeshift and see no evil. That make no sense," Jerry said.

"Younkin Kitsune, shapeshift and see no evil are types of magic. Will, expect for Younkin. He's the name of the Head Leader."

"The fox, dude?"

"Yes, Jerry. Shapeshift is an actual magical power a person has and see no evil is also a magical power. Neddy has that one. Combine password means that we might have to type all those words together. It's why on the last page it told us to read it again."

"Why not just tell us what it was?" Jerry said with a sigh.

"Because she knew that anyone can read this file. But that doesn't mean just about anyone can entered into the base. Come on, let's wake up One."

"I'll meet you down there. Just let me get my stuff."

Violet nodded her head and ran down the steps. She still had time to change out of her PJ's at least she hopes so. She went through the hall and into the room where she put the file onto the night stand and started to shake Agent One to wake.

"Meh, it's my fault I'm a kid again. It's that stupid fox fault. He started it," Agent One mumbled in his sleep.

"One. One, wake up I think I know what the password is."

"YKSSN." Agent One said still alseep.

"What?"

He woke up with a yawn. "YKSSN. Y, stands for Younkin. K, stands for Kitsune. S, stands for shapeshift and SN, stands for I see no evil."

"Oh. I supposed Younkin Kitsune, shapeshift and I see no evil sounded far too long for a password. How did you remember that?"

Agent One let out a laugh. "Dreams tell some good stories and sometimes they give you hints."

"Like the hint you got?" Violet asked.

Agent One wrinkled at her. "Like the hint I got. The only other problem is. I don't remember where the base is in her house."

"I do, under the pool."

She passed the file to Agent One who started looking at the drawing of the backyard pool. But than the worst happened. Violet saw light from the outside coming through the window. Both her and Agent One duck down onto the floor and Jerry rushed to the bedroom ducking down with the pair.

"Someone here," Jerry whispered.

"Get the stuff, quickly." Agent One said.

Violet nodded her head and kept low as she went to gather her backpack along with Agent One backup.

"Okay, old girl. Where is that base?" Agent One wondered too himself. "It's in the pool or even under it."

"Let's find out before those people find us."

Violet flinched when she heard the sound of street lights being smashed.

"That has to be Smith."

"I say. She always put on a show when she was impatience Hawthorne did."

She remembered the twins being impatience when the world first started freezing up.

"If there's no base here than what?" Jerry asked.

"Will, that's when we run. Now, come on," Agent One ordered. Taking his bag with him and out the three went running down the hall and taking the back door.

Violet flinched once again when she heard the sound of another street light being smashed.
