Rogue Squad

First Mission!

"Lucia what the hell!" I faintly hear as I dig my head deeper into my pillow.

Why are people so loud in the morning? Can't they tell that I am exhausted from my Mom lecturing me all night?

"Get up Lucia! You said to be up by seven and now it's seven fifteen."

My eyes shoot open. Shit, I forgot to set my alarm for the mission. I roll over and lean up to look at my intruders. I see Ruben, Raymond and Greyson standing at my door.

"I am so sorry. I forgot to set my alarm." I announce, shocked at myself as I hop out of my bed and scurry over to my closet. "Thanks for coming to get me."

"No problem. We know that Damien might be coming on the mission today and when I saw that you weren't upstairs already, I knew something was off." Raymond says to me.

"And this is why you are my favorite twin." I add happily.

"Hey! That's mean, I noticed too!" Ruben cuts in.

I laugh as I grab my clothes from my closet. Poor Ruben. He tries so hard, but Raymond has a sweet spot in my heart. He has been my closest friend since we were young.

I turn on my heels and walk toward my door which is being blocked by the three boys. Unconsciously I glance at Greyson who happens to be staring at me. My mind flashes to last night and I remember mom's lessons. I quickly shake my head. Now is so not the time to be thinking about this.

"Excuse me," I say as I walk past them and towards my bathroom, "I am going to change. I will meet you guys upstairs in a few minutes. Thank you so much."

"No problem." Raymond adds. "We will see you up there."

I wave them off as they exit my suite. I sigh and close the bathroom door behind me. Oh what would I do without them sometimes? If it is true that Damien is going on the mission today, then I need to make sure I don't fuck anything up. He gets pissed at me for the smallest things, and as long as I don't screw up, he won't get mad.

I quickly toss off my baggy t-shirt and shorts, throwing them into the hamper. I slide on my jeans, followed by my bra and my nice blouse. I need to look good today considering I am playing one of the main roles in our mission. I quickly run back to my room and grab my nice sweater and large purse. I glance at myself in the mirror and notice that I look just fine. Luckily for me, my natural hair has nice waves to it and I don't need to maintain it to make it look nice.

I scurry out of my room and out the suite.

It takes me a minute to get to the kitchen. When I walk through the doorway I see my team scattered around the room making breakfast. Well, everyone besides Damien that is.

"What's up team captain?" Raymond asks happily as I approach him.

I smile, "Nothing. Where is Damien at?" I ask quietly.

He shrugs, "No idea. I thought he was coming today, but we haven't seen any sign of him."

I sigh and grab the bread off of the counter. I slide two pieces out and pop them into the toaster. "Well, we need to get the plan together. Whether or not he is here at this point doesn't matter, I suppose."

I walk over to the fridge and pull out the jelly. I grab a knife from the drawer and a plate from the cabinet.

"Derek, can we get the low down on what we are doing today?" I ask.

I see Leo and Greyson plop down into the seats next to Derek at the kitchen table. They stare at him intently, and I notice Ruben and Raymond even paying close attention. Derek relaxes back in his seat and pulls out a small sheet of paper he had crumpled in his pocket. He pushed his glasses up slightly and clears his throat.
