"Hello Rose."

    "What are you doing here?  I haven't seen you for ten years.  How can you just show up in my life now?  Why are you even in this place?" Rose spoke the words all in a rush and couldn't fathom that he was even there.

    "Your questions will have to be answered another time.  Right now we are in the middle of a huge crisis." He turned his attention back to the spies.

    "As you all may have heard, we are all in chaos.  All of the terrorist groups have joined together under the power of Andrew Charleston.  He has convinced them to destroy anything and everything that prevents them from taking over the world."

    "But why would he do that?" one spy asked.

    "That I do not know, Agent Meatball Codeword.  Maybe you should think of all the possibilities of why he might do that, and then get back to me no later than midnight tomorrow night.  Understood?"

    "Understood, Founder Mo." replied Agent Meatball Codeword.

    "I have a question Uncle." Rose started.

    "In this facility, you are to address me as Founder Mo and nothing else." Founder Mo snapped.

    "I was just wondering why everyone has to call you Founder Mo."

    "They call me that because I am the one who founded and started this facility, hence Founder Mo."

    "Wow.  Is that why you left for ten years?" Rose asked, "Just so you could start this top secret spy center?"

    "No it is not and I'm afraid, my dear Rose, that you will never understand why I left."

    "Of course I never will understand!  You were my role model, but after you left you just . . . just became nothing of importance to me any more!" Rose yelled and then stormed out of the room.

    Jeremy started to go after her but Founder Mo stopped him.

    " Let her go.  She needs some time to cool off."

    Later in the day, after Rose had stormed out of the all important meeting, Jeremy, Jacob, and Sandra came into the mess hall where Rose was finishing her dinner halfheartedly.

    "We finally found you." Jeremy said in a worried tone.

    "I never left," Rose said sadly, "unlike some people in my family."

    "Yeah, I'm sorry about your uncle.  I really am," Jeremy said softly, "but nobody knew that he was your uncle.  Honest."

    "I know that.  I just wish that he could have been there for me, you know?  After he left, my family thought that he was dead, and we had a funeral for him and everything." Rose started to cry.

    "Ssh, Ssh.  It's okay I'm here." Jeremy said while hugging Rose.  Rose didn't know what made him say these words at this time, but she didn't really care.

    Sandra started to get a ping of jealousy.  She had always admired Jeremy and now that Rose had showed up, she felt like Rose was going to take him away from her. Why did life have to be so unfair to her? Why can't she just enjoy what she wants?

    After they got that all sorted out, they all went to bed because their training continued tomorrow.

    The next day, after Rose and Sandra woke up, they had to rush to the mess hall because breakfast would be over in 5 minutes, then they were off to train.

    "I can't believe we woke up late, and on my first day too!" Rose told Sandra as they were rushing to the mess hall.

    "It's okay.  You will soon get used to having to wake up early and getting to breakfast before training starts," Sandra retorted, "I know I did."
