The Beginning of our Kind

Chapter #10 The Second Mission

     James POV

    We have now been on the Island for a month. Rick had hacked into every government's in the world secure internet systems and we were gathering information about other basses in other countries that were like the one we used to live at. Liva had become like the mother of the group and was helping everyone learn to control their powers better and helping with any troubles that they might face. I had become third in command by popular vote with Joanna being second. Joanna had now basically mastered her power and could easily transform into whoever she wanted to with ease. She could even mimic their habits. Eric, Jade and Eliza had strengthened their mind so much that they could reach one of us if we were on the mainland from the Island. Pretty much everyone had improved 1000% and it was time to put ourselves to the test.

   "We will be sending in two groups." Eric was talking us through the plans again, because four of us leave for our first mission tonight. "The first group will be Liva and James. They will be the main plan at the Peace Treaty proposal between England and America. They will be there to learn whether or not an Alliance will be formed. If that alliance is formed than it will no longer be every nation for themselves. That is where myself and Joanna come in. We will  be at the Peace Treaty Proposal between China and Germany. Let's hope for the sake of the world that no treaties are signed because if they are then the war will be full-fledged War World 4. During my absence Steven is in charge with Tara as an assistant."

    I was waiting in a tux at the landing strip with Eric waiting on Liva and Joanna. When they appeared I remembered just how lovely she looked in a dress. She was wearing a crimson dress that snugly fit her body, it revealed most of her back, fell gracefully at her feet, occasionally showed off her silver heels, a shiny necklace called attention back upwards, dangling earrings gave her a  very sophisticated look, she had went with actual makeup and her hair pulled into a dramatic up-do. There was no way anyone would think that she wasn't even nineteen. 

   Just before Liva went to step up onto the jet that they had hijacked from the base, Kira came running out from the woods nearby. She grabbed Liva in a hug and I smiled as I looked at them. Everyone knew that Kira had been the twin with the least control of her powers before the island, but know she had so much control over it that she could hold back the illness powers to most types of emotion. Liva was like a mother to her and neither Kira or Liva had a problem with this.  When Kira dropped the hug Liva walked into the jet and I followed. Klyde was sitting in the pilot's chair and I knew that in the other jet Hans was sitting in the same spot.

    "Let's get this thing going." He began flipping switches as the jet powered up. Using technology curtsy of Rick, Eliza and Eric would be able to keep in touch with us at all times. One of the devices that amplify their brain waves was on each of the jets and there was one in my watch, and Joanna's and Liva's necklaces. These work kind of like a bug except for the fact that we can transfer thoughts over instead of having to use words. I realized that I didn't even flinch as Jade's voice came into my mind.

    "Group James is ready for take off. In 3,2..." The one was drowned out in my mind as the force of the jet caused my ears to pop distracting me. Not long after we leveled out I heard, "Group Eric is ready for take off. In 3, 2, 1." I looked at the monitors on the dash and saw the other jet leveling out behind us.

    "Have I told you that you look lovely in that dress?" I smiled across the jet at Liva who was reading a newspaper that told some of the specifics of the meeting we were about to attend.  I felt the jet shudder as Tara's force-field covered it allowing us to go under radar.

   "No, but your expression said it." She never even looked up and I had to smile because she knew how much that irritated me. "However, I must say that you can clean up rather nice yourself." That time she looked up with a smile playing on her lips.

    "Well you look absolutely stunning. " I winked at her and her face heated even though we were dating and everyone knew it. "So, what is going on between Kira and Brian?" I had seen Liva "accidentally" pair them together for a few projects over the past couple of weeks.

   "Oh, just the usual."Now she was smiling, "You know mutual crushes, but both of them thinking that the other would never like them." She winked at me.

    "Do they have what it takes to make it past that phase?" I was generally curious but also about how would that work if Kira couldn't control her powers.

     "You do realize that you can just ask me what is Really on your mind right?"She looked back at her newspaper and began tapping her foot in the air to rid herself of nervous tension.

     "Fine. Do you think Kira will be able to control her powers if she was in a relationship with Brian?" I inquired of my rather dashing girlfriend.

     "Yes, I am more worried about Abby's reaction to it than anything else." She folded the newspaper and set it beside her on an empty chair.

  Liva's POV

      James extended his hand from outside the Limo to help me out. The building was void of all press due to the heavily guarded twenty mile radius. He allowed his hand to drop to my waist as he led me up the stairs and I shot him a look of utter disdain. He needed to stay professional. We had to look like we were meant to be here. We quickly found our inside man. He worked for the CIA and with a little threat to black mail he had gladly agreed to help us.

     "Ahh, Agents Rockwell and Johnson. It is great that the two of you could make it." He extended his hand to James and nodded in my direction. Then he turned to the Prime Minister of England he had been talking to, "These are my personal body guards, will it be alright if they remain with me during deliberations?"

    "Of course, I don't see why they couldn't" The Prime Minister gladly shook James's hand and then placed a kiss on mine. "You look so young to be in the security business?"

    "My father was one of the greatest in history and I follow his footsteps well." I smiled forcefully.

    "Very well then." He then turned back towards the minister.

    I excused myself and headed to the restroom to relieve myself after the long jet flight. As I was walking out of the restroom I swiped a glass of Champagne from a passing server to look the part. Then I felt a hand wrap around my wrist and practically throw me against a nearby wall.

    "I believe you are a little to young for that, Miss." I snapped my eyes up to the face of the intruder and found myself face to face with Danny. I nearly growled in response and tried to jerk my hand from his grip that I realized was iron strong.

    "You happen to be on a most wanted list. How did shy little Liva get onto such list?" I still wanted to kick him between the legs for what he did to Joanna, but I realized that making a big scene would be a bad idea and blow our cover so I decided a different approach.

    "It is part of my cover. I am CIA now. I mean come on, Danny, we all knew that I was a little to smart for average solider. Also you may want to give that back and let me go. My overseeing officer will be looking for me soon." I batted my eyes at him and tilted my head giving myself a girly and confident look.

    "I'll be watching you, Liva. I don't trust you." He placed the glass back in my hand and glared at me.

     "That makes two of us." I forcefully shoved past him headed back to James.

    'I wish he would get blown to bits' I heard Joanna's angry thoughts and had to laugh at my best-friend who was still mad about how things turned out between them.
