Rise of The Scorpions

Chapter 3

Now it's time for the meeting. I hope they don't catch onto the fact that I'm a BIG FAT LIAR!! If they figure me out then my career is OVER and I'll never be able to be a spy again, so I hope they never find out, well they can when we catch them because they will have to know but otherwise they can't figure me out. That was the first time that I had ever even had a second thought about that. The whole time I had been so confident until now. It was probably just my nerves, but I'm not sure so I'm just going to push the thought out of my mind. Which was probably a bad idea. Mostly because of what's going to happen next.

"There is someone in here that has betrayed our trust," OH MY GOD THEY FIGURED ME OUT!!! I thought as my mom announced this to everyone, "the bad thing is that they're a new member too, so sad that we have to let them go," OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, "Parker Jacobson, please come up here." When she called that name I was relieved. When she called his name it made me so happy but sad at the same time. Happy that it wasn't me and sad because this poor man was about to die for betraying The Scorpions. I wanted to help him but I didn't know how. If I tried to stop them then they would just kill me too, and I wasn't in the dying mood today, or any day for that matter. Still, I really wanted to help him. That's when it hit me, a distraction, I could do something to distract them and then they would worry about that instead of worrying about Parker, whoever he was. Now just to think of a distraction, I could blow something up, but then the cops would get involved. I could....um....oh I've got just the thing. I take one of my gadgets out and inject myself with something that makes me pass out. As someone in the crowd screams, I feel muscular arms surround me.

As I'm waking up in what I think is a hospital I hear someone, a man, say, "Is she ok, do you know what happened to her."

Doctor, "She is just fine, I don't know what caused her to faint though. Has anything unusual happened the past few days, has she been acting strange?"

Stranger, "Not that I know of, could that have caused it?"

Doctor, "Yes, it very well could have."

Stranger, "Well if I think of anything I'll let you know." He smiles and shoos the doctor away. Then he sits down in the chair next to the bed and starts to read a book.

"So, who are you, how did you get to stay in here with me, and why did you pretend that you knew me?" I ask and he jumps at least 5 feet out of his chair.

"Jeeze you startled me..." he starts before I cut him off.

"I know now answer my questions," I urge sitting up in the bed, "also where am I?"

"Fine, my name is Smith, Trevor Smith..." I cut him off again.

"What, are you James Bond? Just get to the point already."

"Ok fine, I got to stay in here because I said that I was your boyfriend, and I pretended that I knew you because I wanted to make sure that you were ok. Oh, yea and we're at Golden Hall Hospital."

"Ok now since you "know" me then can you go get me something to eat? and drink, I'm parched?"

"Ok, I'll be right back," he starts to walk out the door and stops at the frame, "what would you like to eat and drink, madame?" he says with a bow.

I roll my eyes and say in a British accent, "I would like a spot of tea and a croissant please," I giggle and curtsy.

"No seriously what do you want?" He just sits there laughing and shaking his head.

"Just a burger and fries with a milkshake please."

"You got it, babe," he winks and smiles, and I just burst out laughing and nodding my head yea for him to go and he just stands there watching me. Finally, after what seems like forever I calm down and look up and he's not standing there. He must have gone to go get my food finally.
