More Than a Girl Bodyguard

Chapter 38: Promised Mission

Chapter 38: Promised Mission

I arrived at the top of the building on the watch tower and glanced over the night sky. Hearing loud noises of the wind, I assumed that it was the helicopter.

“Agent Rosanna, put these on.” I heard a voice from behind me.

I turned around and saw Harris, giving me the headphones. I looked at him and received the headset, “Why are you here? And what’s with the ‘Agent’?”

He didn’t answer me, “Let me introduce myself, I’m Agent Greenvale.” He said and offered me a handshake.

I stared at him, Why is he acting like this? It’s as though he doesn’t know me. I glanced away from him, “Good to meet you.” I followed his conversation, but I didn’t shake his hand. I turned around and placed the headphones on my head.

I could tell that he stared at me for a while. But I just ignored him. Then one of the pilots was about to climb on the helicopter and stopped to look at Harris, “She’s a tough one.” He pointed. Harris didn’t reply.

The pilot climbed on the helicopter and I went in after him and sat in the seat behind. I glanced back at the troopers that were standing guard for the watch with weapons in their hands. The second pilot glanced back at Harris and signalled him to climb onboard. Harris nodded and sat next to me. I looked back at the night sky through the windows of the helicopter and sighed.

Throughout the whole trip on the helicopter, Harris didn’t say a word to me, and I didn’t say anything to him. It was completely silent, other than the helicopter’s machinery noise and the radio communications between the pilots and the navigator. I guess that was it. After knowing those secrets behind Harris, it was harder for me to talk to him like a friend in those days.

But after a trip for thirty minutes in the sky, were finally got off the helicopter. Harris got off and followed on with the troops that were leading him to the main headquarters. I followed behind him, until he stopped in front of the entrance to the main building.

I paused and glanced around this network. It’s been a while since I last step foot here. And I usually didn’t tend to like it anyways, well other than the new developed gadgets that they give us. I observed the white entrance with bold white doors. And the moment we went inside, the whole place was filled with people and white space.

The whole building was built in a semi-spherical shape with arches of evaluators and many different levels. I paused again as I saw a man walking towards us.

“Greetings, Agent Greenvale and Agent Rosanna.”  Commander General said, “I have asked you to stop by here because of various reasons.” He continued, “But the most important is your mission.” I rolled my eyes. Here we go again.

“Is it about the pen then?” Harris asked.

The Commander General nodded, “Indeed.”

I stepped forward, “Have you found out where it is?”

The Commander General, “Yes.” He nodded, “But it is with someone were not quite sure who.”

I was about to say something again, but the Commander General moved on to the elevator. I guess I had no choice but to follow where everyone else was going.

Pressing number minus twenty-one, the elevator doors closed and this elevator wasn’t like the ones you normally use. This elevator was huge and it was spotless clean. You can literally fit an elephant in here.

“Do you know what kind of information the pen has?” Harris asked.

The elevator stopped and we stepped out it.
