Spies

Chapter 7

Cathy's POV

I opened my eyes. I looked around. All the other Spies were getting up. Patrick was right beside me. Roger was already standing. He was frantically looking around at everyone. I stood up and approached him. He looked at me.

"They took Zoey!" He told me.

I felt betrayed instantly. Seth didn't tell me he was taking hostages. I'll have to talk to him tonight. Patrick joined us.

"What are we going to do?" He asked.

"Come up with a plan and rescue her." I said.

I looked at my watch and saw that it was 10:30pm. We must've been knocked out for a while. I'd have to confront Seth personally by going to the Radical base. I reached in my pocket to find the keys to the SUV. I picked up a gun that was on the floor. I put it at the waist of my pants and pulled my shirt over it. I ran out of the base. There was only one SUV. The Radicals took the rest. I got in the SUV and started the engine. I drove to the Radical base. When I got there I got out of the SUV. I took the gun out and shot the camera. I put the gun away again. I put in the code. The door opened. I walked inside. Nobody looked at me. I started my search for Seth. I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around. Seth grabbed my wrist and dragged me into a janitor's closet. He stood by the door and turned on the light.

"What are you doing here?" He asked.

"You and your colleagues took something from us." I spat.

We were going to return the trucks." Seth flinched.

"I'm not talking about the trucks!" I stepped closer to him. "I'm talking about our leader!"

"She's perfectly safe!" Seth objected.

"I'll believe it when I see her!" I told him.

"But you'd risk being seen!" Seth clenched his jaw.

"That never stopped us!" I reminded him.

"Whatever makes you happy." Seth grabbed my hand. "Stay close." He turned off the light.

He dragged me out. I walked beside him to the elevator. We got in the elevator. We waited in silence. The elevator dinged as we reached the prison floor. I guess not everyone knew I was a Spy. Seth led me down the hall. He stopped in front of a room. He opened the door slowly. I peeked in. Zoey's hands were chained to the ceiling. She was pulling down to try to escape.

"LET ME GO!" Zoey yelled towards us.

She didn't know I was the one there. Her hair was a mess and she was all sweaty. She was breathing heavily.

"Calm down." Seth entered the room.

Zoey looked at him.

"You know what The Boss would do if you don't calm down." Seth told her.

Zoey breathed heavily.

"Would you like some water?" Seth asked.

Zoey nodded.

"I'll be back." Seth walked out. He looked at me. "See? She's fine. I take care of her." He reassured me.

"Thank you." I nodded.

"Anything for you. ". Seth smiled and winked. He started walking down the hall.

I stared at Zoey's door. I went to follow Seth but crashed into someone instead.

" I knew I smelled rat!" The Boss stood over me.

I took a step back. The boss grabbed my wrist.
