An Assassin's Priority (Book 1 of the Cole Series)

15

Waking up on the chair is very painful on the back. Sighing as I open my eyes, I woke up to see Kim leaning on the doorway as I groan.

"What do you want?" I say as he smiles.

"Morning. We are actually leaving right now. Police found dead bodies on the ground floor." Kim cross his arms. "And your mom was there." He states.

"I killed her." I state and Jason wakes up and sits straight.

"How did I end up here? I was kidnapped!" He says with his groggy voice.

"I saved your ass and carried you here." I cross my arms and stand up and bend down to touch his forehead. "Well yesterday, you got a high temperature so I had to sleep on a chair because if I didn't, you could've got kidnapped again or you'll have this migraine humans call it. Venus will be here before dawn." I smile as Spark barks at me and wags his tails.

"Good morning Spark." I smile as he nudges my nose softly with his paw and I carried him as the kids, Belle and Trey ate breakfast. I slumped myself on the chair next to Belle and grab an apple banana shake and a bowl of cereal.

"I listened to the Hurts You Never Knew." Belle smiles.

"Sad isn't it?" Kim asks.

"Yeah. Rumors says someone will be singing on stage tomorrow. I'm excited!" She squeals.

"The only student that can speak Chinese is Scarlett so it could be her." Kim states and I choked.

I clear my throat and drank my shake. "They could've hired someone else." I gave an excuse and there is quite a possibility.

"True." Owen agrees.

"It could be Hazel still." Adriana says as I sigh.

"Mr. Powell's wife knows me but doesn't know my capability of singing and also she wouldn't know unless the  Principal spoils the fun." I drank my shake and drank the milk from my bowl.

"Scarlett-sama, you work in an agency before right?" Hunter asks.

"Yup. Why?" I ask and he gives me a zip bag of a small bottle.

"I found this while we were building sand castles yesterday." Hunter smiles and I open the bag and the container. Wafting the scent, it is definitely poison. I immediately closed it and took a sharp breath.

"Purple Drank, Flakka, and a Russian drug that is recently sold in the market." I state and Kim sighs as Spark smells the bottle and barks.

"Spark says it came from Robin." Kim translates.

"No wonder he took medicine." I sigh as a beeping sound is heard. The wall near me beeped as I elbowed the wall and saw a recorder.

"We're recorded." I smirk and smash the device with my hands.

"We're leaving now." Kim says in a dominating tone as we pack our belongings in our rooms and went out immediately as Trey drives on high speed since we are followed by a black car. We manage to stay out of its sight as we went down hurriedly and went into the apartment and I lock the door.

We all sigh in relief as Belle sighs. "We haven't take a shower yet." She smules weirdly.

"I already did." Kim and Trey said in unison.

"We woke up early." Kim clears his throat. Since there are only 2 bathrooms; one in my room and one here near the living room, we had to separate.

"Since we live here, we take a shower first." Belle says and I yawn.

"Followed by Hunter and Owen then the both of you." Belle instructs.

Groaning as I went to my room to take a quick shower and wore my comfortable loose blue shirt and black shorts and came out.
