'Sup! This chapter is going to be more filler-ish stuff before the action and development of the plot. I put some random thing I saw up top. Enjoy :)

Ben's POV

"I'm bored in the car, bored in the car, BORED"( TIK TOK REFERENCE) Mike chanted for the seventh time.

"Mike can you please shut up" I groaned as Zoe took the liberty to smack his head basically touching his hair. More of their semi-flirting bull. My mind constantly debated Zoe's feelings for me, and my massive crush on Erica. In the last three years Zoe had been nothing but kind, sweet and welcoming to me . On the other hand Erica had been pretty controlling and cold but also had saved, and assisted me many times on missions. We had gotten closer since our talk in Britain a couple years ago, and she had started helping me work on some skills so I would be less of a failure. God, I almost feel like I'm living in some live-action chick flick. I can picture it; two spies in love the dumb innocent, and the smart, cold hot one-- ugh so cheesy. I honestly needed to get my mind off of them and focus on what was important. The mission. Oh great, now I sound like Erica-no shut up ben.

HONK!HONK!(onomatopoeia bishes). I rapidly swung my head around at the noise,and locked eyes with the third, or fourth guy who was on my hasn't died yet list.

"DANE BRAMMAGE, driving the car behind us" I yelped causing everyone else in the car [except Erica and Cyrus] to turn around and look.

"Don't look all at once you bumbling idiots, maybe he hasn't noticed everyone yet!" Erica exclaimed. We then all swung our heads back around to look at her in sync, causing her to give us dirty looks. At this point Cyrus was swerving in and out of lanes trying to lose Dane -who was now following us- at top speed making us hold on to our seats for dear life. Then the worst happened; there was a traffic jam. Erica, who was sitting shotgun (which as you know in the Hale family means that you actually get a shotgun) was reloading, and prepping her gun while asking Alexander to open the windows.

As I carefully observed our whole situation Cyrus asked slightly maliciously, "Got a plan now Ripley?"

Of course everyone's eyes were on me now (like they were staring into the depths of our empty souls) and I felt slightly pressured until I saw the exit signs.

"How about we hide in plain sight," I suggested. " We can go into a restaurant or a drive thru which might throw him off (Since he is brain dammaged)or at least give us the benefit of witnesses" I finished. Erica gave me her "that was kinda good look"(is that even a thing?) and Cyrus grudgingly nodded and veered off to the exit. I peered back once again, relieved to see Dane a few cars behind us looking confused. Cyrus turned into a very rundown place filled with theme restaurants and arcades, called "ARCTAN O's"(Do you see anything suspicious?). It was a diner but seemed all weird with the decor, and straight everything. We all started walking excitedly (they were hungry), but Erica grabbed me and pulled me aside.

"Something is not right here, I just saw Dane pull into the back of the restaurant, pay attention and follow me" she spoke quietly. She kept her hand lightly on my wrist as we entered the restaurant where Mike, Zoe and Alexander were already seated. Funnily, Cyrus was nowhere in sight. We sat down and of course Erica excused herself to look around the place, as Mike and Zoe chatted about the food. A bunch of waiters, and waitresses immediately came to our table as there was almost no one in the restaurant. They all tried to talk at the same time, their questions overlapping. One of the waitresses stared at me strangely not before putting her hands in her apron and wrapping her hand around something.
