The Saviour (Daniel Atlas)

Chapter 3

The flight to Paris went smoothly, only hitting a little turbulence which didn't really bother me. I'm not afraid of flying, I'm afraid of suddenly not flying. We were all checked into our hotel rooms and Henley was currently straightening my short blonde hair and putting a little makeup on. We had a few hours before our first plan as the FiveHorsmen took place so we decided to do some sight seeing. I really didn't want to be a stereotypical tourist going to the Effile Tower, so we chose to go to a local French market that was very tiny. As I was looking at a pair of earrings at a small stand, someone approached me.

"Bonjour, mademoiselle, you are very beautiful." A gentleman my age said and took me hand. "I am Francois." He said with a French accent. As I looked at him, I noticed his dirty blonde hair and gorgeous green eyes. I let a giggle escape my pink-painted lips as he kissed my hand.

"I'm Phoebe, it's a pleasure to meet you." I smiled. I had to admit he's good looking, but not the best I've seen. Wait, what? Where did that come from? As I was having a mental conversation, I almost missed Francois ask me out.

"Can I take you to dinner on Friday?" He asked me with shinning eyes. I was about to respond when Danny strolled over and put his hand on my waist.

"Hey babe, who's this?" Danny asked casually. Woah buddy. Francois frowned and walked away and I was speechless. I regained my thoughts when he was out of sight.

"Danny how could you! He was really cute and liked me! Which never happens!" I exclaimed angrily. Danny frowned and turned me the other way. There was Francois, talking to another girl, kissing her hand like he did to me. I sighed and turned back to Daniel.

"He did it to four other girls before he got to you. Sorry for trying to make sure you don't get your heart broken." Daniel said and walked over to Merritt. God I'm an idiot! So foolish of me to think a guy like that would like a girl like me! Now Danny's mad at me too. I ran a hand through my hair as I walked back to the booth with the gorgeous earrings. I don't knew where I could ever wear them but something told me I needed to have them.

It was time for phase 1 of the plan in Paris. Everyone was in their assign spots getting ready to hijack Etienne's thoughts. Poor guy's not going to know what hit him. I stood a few feet away from the door, waiting for Etienne to exit the building. When I saw him a started walking towards him and as he turned around, he bumped into me causing me to fall.

"Oh Madame! Je suis desolé! I'm very sorry." He exclaimed and helped me pick up my papers. He handed me a Vegas pamphlet and I shook my head.

"That's not mine, you must have dropped it." I said lying through my teeth. "Have a good day!" I said running off, leaving Etienne with the Las Vegas pamphlet, which features yours truly, the FiveHorsmen. I adjusted my ear piece and began speaking.

"I'm done. You're next Merritt. Good luck." I sat down on a bench where I would be able to see everyone, to make sure things ran smoothly. Merritt bumped into Etienne, activating the hypnosis which would become useful in Las Vegas.

"The sausage is activated." Merritt said into his ear piece and smirked my way.

"Great so Etienne is programmed?" I asked. He shook his head for me to see and winked.

"Nope, I just saw you in that outfit, if you get my drift Pheebs." Merritt said. A scoff was heard through the earpiece and Daniel called Merritt out.

"Pervert. Back off." I laughed when I heard that.

"Let's go Atlas, you're up." I whispered praying it worked. Daniel started jogging up the steps while tossing a poker chip. Etienne passed him and Danny nodded towards him.
