   Alex couldn't move, he just looked at Johanna. She looked down and Alex wonder what she knew about MI6 or his uncle.

"Jo, we really need to sleep." Ginger said.

"I have to go and thanks." She hugged him, making Alex blush. He thanked that the was little lighting so she couldn't see his face. She sprinted in. Alex turned, looked down and saw a car on the bottom barely noticeable from where he was standing.

"I. really need to figure this out."

"Figure what out?" Edruad said leaning.

"Everything, first day. Someone is trying to kill her and now, I find out that my uncle was her mother's guard."

"I have a weird feeling."

"Who doesn't?"

"Xander and Edruad, we're leaving for our room." Alastar yelled.

"We need to be careful."

"Stick out."

"Right after, everyone's asleep."

"Yeah."Alex knew it was dangerous to trust him but he had no other choice. Protecting Johanna was the goal. Both then waited for the rest to sleep and Alex took out his gadgets.

"Ready?"

Yeah." Alex opened the door slightly and checked for anyone in sight.

"Lets go." He whispered. Alex felt unsecured as they walked down the hallway.

"Nothing in the King's alley." A radio blasted making, him jump. Eduard signaled him to shut it. They hid behind a statue as a guard walked around the corner. After, he turned, they ran to the stairs.

"First, we need to see what this school is hiding."

"What?"

"Come on, you forgot to search for bugs when you got here. They are everywhere, even in the shower which is perverted." Alex felt like a fool, of course, he forgot to search for bugs. He couldn't get his mind straight. Alex looked out the window nothing expect woods. Then, he noticed a weird light coming from the woods.

"I suggest we search there." Alex said back to his British accent.

"Well, Brit. We need to get past the cameras." Alex remembered how Ginger climbed into their room, opened the window and sighed in relief as he saw strong, steady vines.

"I beginning to like you." Eduard said as he lowed himself into the main court.

"Beginning?"

"Never mind." He mumbled as Alex stepped onto the grass. Both boys were nervous as they ran to the woods were the light was.

"Mr. Lucas, I advice we move the plan to The Breaking Part." A girl said, May?

"May, you need to be patient. Soon we will find out who is the real daughter of Selma. I need those plans."

"Every well. Can I see my brother, now?" May said it softly. Mr. Lucas nodded and a guard dragged a small boy with blond hair and blue eyes tied with rope.

"May?" The boy hugged his sister.

"Ron." She  hugged him. Alex looked at Eduard. He nodded, knowing what he was thinking. Alex looked again at the siblings.

"That's enough." Mr. Lucas pulled them away and the guards took the boy back to the woods.

"Remember you part of the deal." She nodded and ran back to the castle. Lucas pulled out a phone and put it on speaker.

"Mr. Lucas, did you found out-"

"No. But I do have a target. He will be the center."

"Good, in two days."

"Agreed."

"Did you find out who was the attacker on Johanna Faison?"

"No, but we suspect, it was Jonathan Öwl."

"Of, course." He ended the call and walked back to the school.

"Target?"

"We need to see what May knows." Both boys agreed. Alex looked up to the girl's room. Eduard looked at him and rolled his eyes.

"Are you new at this?" Alex looked at him with confusion.

"You're falling for her."

"Johanna? No."

"Right, but warn you. You heard her, she dislikes spies. Mark my words, Rider."

"Lets go." Alex dashed for the vines before he could say anything else. Eduard chuckled. Both of the boys didn't know that a girl with blond hair and overdue of makeup was watching them.
