Crawley ran, practically dragging Alex through the hallways filled with agents.
The alarm started flashing and Crawley instantly knew that the threat had become real. With one arm he ready his gun, seeing the other agent holding Alex do the same.
"shhh just five more minutes" Crawley heard Alex say
"Shut up, Alex" Crawley said looking around to see if there was any danger, outside he could hear shots.
"We have to go to the car outside, I have to take him out of here" Crawley screamed on top of all noise, watching as the other one nodded.
Has they got to the door he saw the car right at the entrance "cover us" he yelled as they run outside. Instantly a circle was created around them making a path to the car, that thankfully was unlocked
Crawley opened the back door pushing the teenager across the seats before running to the driver side. Stepping on the accelerator, they were out of the house.
Crawley looked around ensuring that no one was following them before he called Mrs. Jones
"this is Crawley, eta 10 minutes" he said
"any problems?" she asked
"there's an active threat in the safe house, I got out a soon as I could, no injuries to report"
"Alright, we're waiting" she said hanging up.
Crawley took one last look around confirming that they were alone in the road, it was pretty late, so it would be easy to see if anyone was following.
Right now they were out of danger, although the teenager sprawled across the seats had been oblivious to any kind of threat. He should have never let the doctor prescribe something so strong, but to be honest he felt kind of jealous of Alex, getting to have such deep sleep for one night. Crawley couldn't remember the last time he had such heavy sleep. But to be fair when he was Alex's age he didn't have to worry about terrorists organizations nor professional killers trying to kill him.
With no traffic he arrived at the department in no time. Getting out of the car he opened the back door finding the teenager with his eyes barely opened
"let's go Alex, we're here" he said pushing Alex up
"can you walk?" he asked unsure if the boy was even coherent
"yeah" Alex murmured quietly nodding his head slightly
Crawley helped him get out of the car, guiding him inside not letting go of his arm since he looked on the verge of falling to the ground
As the elevator opened he was met with Mrs. Jones
"Crawley" she began but stopped was he watch him drag Alex out "his everything OK?" she asked
"yeah, the doctor prescribed him some sleeping pills" he said as he deposited the team on an empty desk, watching as he put the head on the table instantly falling asleep "it was some heavy stuff" he said looking at the woman
"Blunt his waiting for us" she said
They both went to their boss office closing the door behind them.
"I got word of the safehouse, the threat has been neutralized, but they escape" Blunt reported as they both sat down. "Where's Alex?" he asked
"outside" Crawley said motioning to the hunched figure on one of the desks
"there is the problem of what we will do with him." Blunt continued
"well all of our safe houses has been compromised" Mrs Jones said
