Trouble

Brooks

Sliding the file onto the table with my name printed in black print, this file had all my information and I needed to know. I opened the file as Rian finished wrapping a gauze around my torso. Jack, Zack, Alex and Skai were all looking through the files. I sat down in the metal chair and used my pointer finger to trace the words I read in quick movement, I stopped my finger as I landed on the last name I knew. "Brooks." I reread the part and realized that my life as been a lie, I stood up quickly hurting my wound in process as I shoved the file onto the ground. "Rian find out where Mr. Brooks is and Jack hack into the phones of all those people on the files." I ordered. Rian and Jack listened to my command and got the stuff they needed and walked out. I walked toward the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror, I fixed up the makeup and pulled my hair back into a tight ponytail than walked back out. I stood at the counter sliding my knives into the sheaths as well as the gun into the belt loop. I turned around seeing Zack looking at me with a confused look. Alex walked over with my walkie talkie and earpiece, I glanced at Skai seeing her throwing her bag on her back. "What?" I asked, snapping my eyes back at Zack. He jumped and put his arms up in surrender as he said "Just confused of why you got up so suddenly." I glanced at the papers that were scattered across the ground, I crouched down and picked them up than stuffed them back into the file. I glanced at Zack than the other two with a very stern look. "Do NOT look in this file." I tell them, setting the file on the table to look at after school. "Okay." Alex says. I gave him a kiss and walked out of the house with Skai following shortly after me, I got into the car and pulled out. "Uh, Jess. You're going the wrong way school's that way." Skai said. "I know." I whispered. "Where are we going?" she asked, confused. "To the murder scene of my father and sister." I said, oh so calmly. I pulled into the drive way and got out of the car, I walked toward the house entering through the none existing door. I walked through the house in pursuit to look for a clue, I came to a stop at my parents room where dried blood still laid. They did a pretty shitty job of cleaning this up, I walked in the room looking around when my eyes landed on my fathers desk. I pulled out the chair and took a seat as I pulled out the drawers looking around when my eyes spotted a yellow file. I reached for the file as the feeling of anger boiled in me.  I pulled the file out, got out of the chair and walked back out of the house back into the car. "What was that about?" Skai asked. "Nothing." I said, pulling out of the driveway and heading the right way to the school. I pulled into a parking spot and waited for Skai to get out as I slipped the file in my book bag, I stepped out of the car and tugged my hoodie down hiding the bulge of the gun. I flung my bag onto my back and joined Skai to walk toward the school, as we stepped foot into the school all eyes landed on us. "She's back." "Hottie's are back in town." "Dude! Is that Caden?" People kept whispering expecting us not to hear. "Alright. Yes I'm back and Yes I will fuck anyone up, now please go on with your life." I announced. "Low life's." I growled. Skai walked to her locker as I went to mine but didn't opened it, I waited as Seth walked towards his spotting me. "Nice to see you back, Caden." he said, smirking. "Here we go again.. Mr. flirts a lot." Alex growled in my ear. I flashed Seth a fake smile to pretend that I was happy to others, as I looked at Seth with a serious look in my eyes. "When the first bell rings, meet me in the library." I tell him, than walked away. I headed toward the library the one place teenagers won't be seen in since it's a myth to them. I opened the doors of the library and walked in quietly, I headed toward the back where no one could see me if they tried to look. I took my earpiece out and stuffed it in my pocket than sat down in the chair at the table, I unzipped my bag and pulled out the file setting it on the table just as the bells rings and Seth takes a seat. "What's that?" he asks. "A file. We went to one of many buildings of Mr. Brooks last night and got a shit ton of files with victim's stuff that are to be assassinated." I told him, quietly. "So, what did you find?" he asks, raising a brow. I opened my mouth but closed it as I looked at Seth's ears than ducked under the table to see if he had any wires. "We still have that deal right?" I asked, making sure. "Sure do." he confirmed. "I found a file on myself, I was looking at it this morning and what I found was not pleasing. So I stopped at my fathers house today and found this." I said, pointing to the file. "If this confirms what I dread than I have no other choice than to kill her soon as possible before she finds out."  I tell him, pushing the file to Seth. I watched as he opened the file and read the words. His eyes widen as he pushed the file back to me with his finger pointing to the one word I didn't want.

"Your real dad is Mr. Brooks."
