I wake up a bit later today, at around 8:00 AM. However as soon as I wake up, I realise something is different about today.
Of course! They gave us a day off
That's why I didn't set my alarm. I didn't need to get up as early. I get out of bed and start to get ready, today wearing a pair of blue denim skinny jeans and a black t-shirt.
I exit my room at 8:55, and find that nobody else is awake yet. I walk down to the end of the corridor and start to make my way down to the ground floor of the headquarters; people greeting me as I pass them.
Suddenly I bump into someone, it's Ashton. His paperwork drops on to the floor.
"Oh Ashton, I'm so sorry." I say apologising helping him pick up his papers.
"No, it's my fault, I wasn't looking where I was going. I was actually on my way to find you and the others...Here." He says handing me an envelope.
"What's this?" I ask curiously.
"It's your first 3 month wage, but it's a bit lower, as you will need to be promoted to a higher rank to be paid more." He explains.
"ah ok," I say before opening the envelope. An invoice is inside from money being paid into my account.
£35,000! I think to myself. "Thank you so much." I say before Ashton leaves to find the others.
I'm about to walk out of the entrance when someone taps my shoulder making me turn around. It's Vinny.
"Oh hi," I say "did Ashton just give you your first payment?" I ask.
"Yeah, 35 grand" He replies.
"I was about to head out shopping, don't suppose you want to come with me do you?" I ask.
"Yeah," he replies. "I was actually about to head out myself; mainly to get away from Kendra."
"Why what's she done this time?" I ask as we leave the HQ and get into my car.
"She ended up screaming and shouting at me last night before everyone went to sleep." He starts to explain to me.
"What about?" I ask as we're driving towards the nearby shopping mall.
"You." He replies.
"Why was she having a go at you about me?" I reply with another question.
"She was telling me to stay away from you because your "trouble"." He says.
"Told you she didn't like me one bit, and she's only known me a few days." I reply. I park in the shopping centre car park and we get out.
We reach the shopping centre entrance and head inside. We pick up a map and look for the shops we want to go in. I mainly needed to get groceries, some new clothes and a few other necessities. Vinny had a similar idea, and we also agreed to hav a look round a home improvement store later; as I would like to update my house a bit.
"Right let's go." He says as we begin entering our chosen shops.
By lunch we had been in all our main shops and bought far too much. Zach was so kind as to carry some of my bags for me as well as his own, real gentleman. We start to head back to the car to head over to the home improvement store about 5 minutes away.
After spending about 30 minutes in the home improvement store, I had organised getting a new kitchen fitted as well as some new, more updated furniture for my house to be delivered to HQ.
We set off back towards HQ from the home improvement store about 5 minutes ago. Vinny offered to drive as I had driven us both everywhere all day, and with our spy badges we are able to drive other people's cars.
Suddenly a smash sound echoes through the air as a bullet collides with the rear window of my car. As I turn around there are three black cars following us.
"We're being followed!" I exclaim "they've realised who we are."
"Well shoot back at them then!" Vinny says in urgency.
"I don't have my gun! I left it in my house." I explain frantically.
"First rule of being a spy. Always have your gun equipped at all times," He hands me his gun. "Here use mine whilst I try to lose them." He instructs.
I lean out of the window grasping the gun in both hands; firing a bullet that shoots directly into the first car's front windshield.
"nice shot!" Vinny exclaims.
"Thanks," I reply "but we're not in the clear yet."
"Don't worry, we'll lose them." He replies, taking a sharp right turn down a side street.
We lost another one of the cars, but there is still one last one on our tail.
"I can't lose this one, you'll have to take his car out." He says as I lean out of the window once again aiming with Vinny's pistol. I fire two quick bullets; the first skimming the car, the second managing to hit the front right wheel, taking it out bringing the car to a stand still.
"Yes!" I exclaim "we've lost them."
"Brace yourself!" Vinny shouts before
Smash!
Cough, cough "are you okay?" He asks.
"Yeah, I'm ok." I say lifting my head up from the air bag.
His mouth opens wide in shock.
"What?" I say.
"Your head, it's bleeding."
I look through the mirror, only to see that he was right. There was blood trickling down my face. Everything starts to spin around me and I become light headed and dizzy. Suddenly my eyes meet a blur to pitch black darkness.
