Chapter 11
"Let's transfer to Forever 21", I said once we were all together. Tom was carrying Saffron while Charlette and Tobias are next to him.
"Why?" Charlette asked, fear lacing in her tone.
"We need to hide inside the fitting room, we can't go down anymore, they made it inside", I said, "Alejandro and Tobias, you both are going to be the lookout".
They both nodded at my order and they walked out. I tapped my ear when Alejandro looked at me, signaling him that I got my earpiece and he nodded his head as a reply, telling Tobias what I signaled him. Tobias then looked at me and nodded his head.
When I turned back to the Anderson siblings, they all wore the same expression; confuse.
"Come on, we gotta go to the fitting room", I ushered them.
Forever 21 was just across where we are, but it was hard because there were still people running for their lives.
We made it inside and I half-sprint towards the fitting room, trying to ignore the pain of my body.
I opened the last fitting room and I told the Anderson siblings to go inside.
"Whatever happens, no one leaves the room unless we tell you to", I said in a serious tone.
I looked at Saffron who was clutching his brother, "Saffron, kiddo, remember what happened in Paris?"
He lifted his head and looked at me with teary eyes, but nodded his head at me.
I smiled at him, "I want you to do the same, got it kiddo? The one I've told you when we were in the alley?"
"The one where I have to keep quiet?" He whispered. I nodded at him.
"Yeah, that one, I want you to do that, and that also includes the two of you", I said referring to his older siblings.
"Do you guys have handkerchief?" I asked. I took out my handkerchief and Charlette had hers.
I scoot closer to Saffron, "Saff, I have to cover your mouth, just in case, and do the same".
Charlette and Tom covered their mouth with their own handkerchiefs, following my orders without a question.
"Autumn"
I heard Alejandro's voice call my name whenever we are doing our job.
In the field I am known as Agent Autumn Winters.
"What's the situation?" I touched the earpiece and Tom was looking at me.
"Are you guys inside fitting room?" He asked and I still here gunshots in the background.
"Yeah, but I'm coming out in a minute", I said.
"Tobias and I are on our way there now", Alejandro said and that's when I stepped out of the fitting room.
"I've called for back up and they are on their way", Alejandro said once I was in front of him.
My eyebrows furrowed, "Backup?"
"Yeah, do you even think that Luis would let us come here without any backup?" Alejandro asked in amusement.
"Why?" I asked.
"For unexpected situations like this", Alejandro said.
"Who's coming?" I asked him and he answered, "Mason, Oscar, Jillian and their team".
"Remind me to be nice to Luis when I see him", Alejandro laughed at that.
"Autumn, Ash, Akie, are you guys there?"
