Ashes to Ashes

-Your first steps.

Hey who ever is reading this, it's been like 3 days since we updated but we're finally on holiday (get the streamers and wine pls) so I don't know about the other 3 but it's going to be a pretty hectic 6 weeks. I don't know when everyone else is updating (you guys were meant to oh my glob) but i just wanna say WE'RE MAKING A TRAILER BC WHY THE HELL NOT so here is chapter 14 for you strange strange people who like this story. Enjoy - R

Raquel's POV

"Yo what's going on over here?" I called out as I approached a very flustered looking Colin.

"Nothing kiddo, come on let's go find Eve," he spoke and wrapped an arm around me, throwing a 'you're dead m9(sorry)' glare at the Irishman.

"Are you alright, Colin?"

"I'm fine, trust me."

So that was the end of that. But now it was time to rescue Eve and Kathryn apparently as my wisest guess was that she went on ahead to take all credit for the saving. Katie and Andy were still arguing about that damned Batman mask and I swear if I here his voice again I will scream. And Katie, uh, why..? The last time we saw her was probably like 4 years ago when at uni we all met up for a 'cheeky nandos'(jk im gonna let myself out now). I remember that meeting not going down very well..

-Flashback-

"So who's this?" my friend Graham spoke and signaled towards my sister, Katie.

"Eh, an old friend. Even though we live like 10 minutes away from each other she thought it would be good meeting during school."

"Cool. So, where about are you studying?" Eve asked as Katie sat on the bench where Colin, Graham, Kathryn, myself and our other exchange student named Lionel were sat eating lunch.

"Trinity College. It's a performing arts college, it's fun. What about you guys?" she smiled. Urgh what is she trying to pull smiling at my friends, she was never like this when we lived under the same roof.

"Well I will go round the circle. I'm doing a degree in medicine, Kathryn here is studying physiology, Graham is doing forensics, your friend Rachel if she hasn't told you is doing cryptography and that sort of strange crap, Lionel came from Spain a couple of days ago and isn't really studying anything but he was told to visit, and Colin is currently working for the SIS but came to King's College for the day to ask one of his old teachers something that apparently has importance."

"SIS? What's that?" Katie questioned and looked across to Colin.

"If I told you that I'm afraid I'd have to kill you," Colin joked and returned to eating his chicken and sweetcorn sandwich.

"No seriously?"

"He is being serious, Katie. You've never heard of the SIS?" I butted in and admired I must have been the one born with the brains and her the one born with the creativity.

"No why, what is it?"

"Secret Intelligence Service."

"Like MI6 and stuff?"

"Yes."

"Oh right. Is that really a thing? I thought it was in the movies and stuff but I never imagined somebody doing something like this for a living." Wow how judgmental can you get over a job?

"Of course it's a thing," Colin said. "Otherwise I wouldn't be doing it.."

"You look a little young to be protecting the Government. How old are you supposed to be?" Can you just shut the hell up and let the man eat his bloody lunch?

"I'm twenty, not that it makes much of a difference.."

"So how co.."

"Katie just please shut up and let's discuss why you're here?" I sighed.
