It had been 4 days after Alex's disappearance. I was intently waiting outside watching for the familiar yellow bus to stop at the stop. Will was yammering on about something with Layla, I ignored him and continued to look for the bus "dude are you even listening to me?" Will ask annoyed. I snapped out of my head and stared at will "sorry" I apologized. The goodie two shoes smirked at me and said in a mocking tone "you really like her don't you?" I looked at him confused "Alex~" he cooed. I looked forward and showed no emotion "it's not like that. She just hasn't been here for 4 days and I'm worried" I answered. I saw the yellow bus and attention was immediately grabbed. I watched as the students poured out of the bus however Alex was nowhere to be seen.

I ran to the principles office and busted through the door. She looked up from her paper work and immediately stood up "mister peace what is the meaning of this?" She spoke. Warren sternly looked at the principle, his eyes filled with worry " who is Alex ?" I asked truly not knowing who she is. The principle got up from her seat and opened up a filing cabinet and holding a I single document "now the US government told me not to tell anyone this information but I'm willing to make an exception with you since she personally told me to tell you" powers handed the file to me.

I opened it to see an old photo most likely taken by a Polaroid, among a lot of papers. He saw a much younger looking Alex being hugged by a boy with hair similar to his and a girl with white hair in the picture. Alex's had shorter hair which was covered by a beanie that matched the torn up leather jacket she was wearing over a purple under shirt. The boy wore a similar outfit except he had a red under shirt however the girl was wearing something that looked like she came out of one of the pirates of the Caribbean movies . I must admit it suits her well especially because of her dark skin and white hair.

I shifted while studying the picture, he felt something else fall out of the compacted  folder. I picked up the stray item off the floor. It was another picture with more people in it inculding Alex and the boy in the other picture. There to very tall girls at the back with ginger hair, they held different sorts of guns. One was holding a sniper rife, her hair hung down to her knees even when it was tied into a braid. She had a stylized breast plate that looked very fitting over her red and black tank top. She had gauntlets over her hands,  bandages over her arms and Her mouth was covered with a mouth guard. The other girl also had a moth guard accompanied by an eye patch on her right eye. Her hair draped over her shoulders, it was much shorter then the other girls. Her hoodie covered everywhere else except her cleavage which poked out. Of course it was covered by Armour but still it didn't leave much to the imagination. She held a two pistols in each gloved hand, the guns looked like they hand golden words on them but i couldn't make them out. There was one more person he hadn't seen which sat in between the black haired boy and Alex. He had crazy blonde hair and wore nothing but brown pants. His skin was littered with tattoos and his abs were well defined. I found myself nearly jealous.

"who are they?" I asked. The principle rubbed her temples "that's' Alex's team." She answered. I loooked at her puzzled, she noticed and started explaining "she didn't have the best starting point. She was abducted by a secret company that i will not name for reasons, they trained her into the perfect hacker and infiltrator. She was the best in the country. As was her team. They would go on 'jobs' to take people out, steal things, etc. Each of her team specialized in different things. However a few months ago the CIA found out and ambushed them so they had no time to escape. The government gave them an option. Try and fit into normal society and no more missions or life time in prison. Of course they choose society." The principle looked concerned "Alex has always had a hard time getting along with people and since the government split them up shes basically gone through hell. This is the first school shes been in without getting suspended, expelled or transferred within the first week. So please Warren i know you told me she was sick but if you have an inkling that it might be something else tell me" I thought about his answer. I grabbed the keys to the spare bus on her desk and headed towards the door "I'll be back" I shouted over my shoulder before heading to the school parking lot.
