Rachels' Book Of Short Stories

A Secret Agent Undercover

Scarlett Walker walked toward the dome. She would meet her contact there, to give him the information she had found. She had been living as Clarisse Andrews for the last six months, she was an undercover spy. Her "boss," Macon Bates, was the CEO of Altitech. A giant company that sold technology. Computer systems, WiFi systems, and all sorts of computer programs.

She had gotten a job as a secretary. It was supposed to be temporary, but her manager liked her so much that she wanted her to stay. She got promoted to Team Leader, then, after proving herself yet again, she was promoted to manager. She was finally able to be in contact with Macon himself, and other higher ups. She quickly found out that they were spying on their customers, and inflating money and stealing it, using it for their own gain.

When Scarlett reached the dome, she went to the North side, and stood there waiting. She heard footsteps approaching, then a man walked up to her.

"The sloth goes to the water." He said. Scarlett smiled to herself, it was the code.

"And swims across the river, to join his family." She finished. The agent nodded, showing her his badge. Agent Matthews.

"Do you have anything more?" He asked. Scarlett nodded.

"It's more serious then we thought. They are planning world domination. They have just opened an account overseas in Europe and will start creating an army." She said. The agent looked at her.

"Are you sure?" He asked, surprised.

"Yes. They will have enough money when they get customers in Europe. They started when they were selling the computer programs, they had to get into the people's homes. They are spying on them and also stealing money." She told him, "a lot of the employees and managers don't know about this, only the higher ups. A lot of people will lose their jobs."

"What kind of army?" Matthews asked.

"I don't know, it's classified. I was lucky to get this much information!" She told him.

Agent Matthews nodded. "We need to stop them. I will call headquarters. Be careful, Scarlett!" He said. They had been friends since training school, and worked on many cases together.

"Don't worry about me, Peter! I will be fine." She told him. He gave her a smile, and after parting ways, she headed back to her apartment.

When she got back, she saw that her door was open slightly. She pulled her gun out and cautiously approached, quietly pushing it open. She saw a faint light coming from her living room. She slowly creeped up and looked in, and saw Jane Summers, her best friend and an Altitech employee, sitting on the couch. Scarlett hid her gun in her coat.

"Jane? What are you doing here?" She asked, stepping into the living room. Jane jumped up.

"I'm so sorry, Scarlett! But the door was open!" She said. Scarlett shrugged.

"What's the matter? Why are you here?" She asked, Jane looked sad.

"It's Riana, she kicked me out." She said, "I was wondering if I could stay here tonight?" Scarlett thought for a minute. All her spy tech was hidden, so it was very unlikely that she would find anything. Scarlett decided that it was safe.

"I don't mind!" She told her. Jane smiled thankfully.

"Thank you so much!" She said. Scarlett smiled.

"No problem!" She said, "you can stay in the guest room!"

Jane smiled, then went into the guest room. Scarlett went into her room, and after putting on her pajamas, went into the kitchen. Jane was her childhood best friend, and one of the only people who knew about her spy work. Riana was Jane's older sister and another close friend. She trusted them a lot. She put on the coffee pot, then asked Jane if she wanted some coffee.
