I woke up in my bedroom feeling nervous. It's not everyday someone gets to go get an interview at The Agency. I swung my feet over the bed to feel my shag carpet. I checked my clock and saw it read 7:15. I did a double take. My interview was at 8 and the boat leaves the dock at 7:45.

"Shit! I'm going to be late!" I said

I rushed downstairs to grab a quick breakfast, a banana and some water. Afterwards I raced upstairs and took a speedy shower and got all ready. I was just about to leave when I realized I forgot to brush my teeth. I checked my watch and realized I only had 5 minutes till my boat departed.

"I guess some gum will have to do," I told myself.

I raced out the door and just made it to the boat. Since I live at Salty Springs my ride wasn't long. I arrived at the Agency with 2 minutes to spare until my meeting. I looked down at my outfit. I was wearing ripped jeans, a white blouse and some tan heels. I started to regret my choice thinking it wasn't appropriate but it was too late. A henchman grabbed my attention asking if I was Y/N. I nodded and he led me into the Agency. It was beautiful with marble floors and gold things everywhere. He led me to a room with the only gold door in the building. He knocked on the door.

"Come in," a voice said.

The henchman opened the door and walked me in. Over by the windows stood a tall man. He had brown hair almost to the point of it being black. He was pale and wore black dress pants, a white, short sleeve button up, a black vest and black dress shoes. He turned around and I noticed his hands were gold. He had tattoos running all down his neck and arms. Not to mention he was a large scar running across his eye. The eye the scar was on was a milky white, which made me think he was blind. His other eye was a gold color.

"You may leave now," the man said.

I stood there awkwardly.

"Hello dear, my name is Midas. You may take a seat," he said gesturing to the chair in front of me.

I took a seat. My hands were sweating I was so nervous.

"You're name is Y/N, correct?"

I showed a slight smile and nodded.

"Don't be shy darling. I don't bite," Midas said winking.

I showed a bigger smile this time. As time went by he asked me multiple questions. After about 30 minutes he asked his last question.

"So Y/N what makes you think you have what it takes to be an agent here?"

"Well all my life I dreamed of working for the Agency. My father used to be an agent here until he um...died in a mission. He was my role model and ever since that happened I worked as hard as I could to train and prepare to become an agent."

Midas looked up from his paper work and showed a slight smile.

"You are a very determined girl. You are the type to never give up. To push forward when times get tough, and that exactly what we are looking for here at the Agency."

He stood up and walked me out of his office. Before he opened the door he told me I'd find out if I got the  job in about an hour. He smirked and opened the door for me. He called over a henchman and told him to take me to the waiting room. When I got there another person was in there. I sat across from him.

"So what brings you to the Agency?" I asked

"Well I applied to be a henchman," he replied, "The boss of the henchman asked me some questions and then took me to a big training room."

"Well how do you think you did?"

"He honestly seemed impressed with me and had nothing but good things to say."

"My name is Y/N," I reached my hand out to shake his.

"I'm Thomas, Tommy for short," he said reaching his  hand out to shake my hand. 

A henchman opened the door and asked for Tommy to follow him. He waved good bye and I smiled at him. I sat at the table playing on my phone. After about 30 minutes a henchman walked into the room.

"Midas will see you now."

I followed him back to Midas' office. He opened the door and I walked in. Midas smiled.

"Hello darling. Please, sit."

I sat in the same chair as before, but this time Midas sat next to me.

"I see potential in you Y/N. I want you as an agent here."

I couldn't believe what I heard. My heart started racing and a huge smile spread across my face.

"Really?!" I said.

He nodded and smiled.

"For the first week here you will be my trainee. I will be with you helping you with everything. Training, hacking, and some simple missions."

We both stood up and he shook my my hand.

"As our newest agent you should go meet the others. Come with me," he said putting an arm around me.
