Undercover Agent *old*

Chapter 11

December 23rd, 2012
Hotel The M
Location: Malibu

Kaylin was fast asleep when Tony tried to call her. She didn't hear it. She's a very deep sleeper.

In the morning, when she did wake up, the first thing Kaylin did was checking her face in the mirror. She saw that the black lines under her eyes were much less than the night before and her face had more color.

When she had put in her contacts Kaylin brushed her teeth and checked her phone for any updates from Fury. Instead, she saw the countless voicemails from Tony.

Kaylin decided to call back when she was done eating breakfast. She had to get some food in her.

In the hotel restaurant were many people. Kaylin had to stop after a few steps because the row was too long. It was all the way in the lobby.

I'll eat on the way, she thought and stepped away. Kaylin started walking towards her car and called Tony back.

“Mia? Finally, you're picking up.” Tony said.

“Well, yeah, I was sleeping. Like a normal person would do in the middle of the night.” Kaylin responded annoyed. “For the record, my name is Kaylin. Please use it.”

“Sorry, can you come over? I need help.” Tony asked politely. She didn't trust it entirely.

“What did you do?” She wanted to know.

Ever since they were kids, Tony would come for help to her when he screwed up big time. Most times it was nothing major, but Kaylin had the feeling he just sentenced himself do death.

“I may have told the Mandarin where I live.” Tony answered. Kaylin stepped into her car and put her phone on speaker. She drove out of the street into the traffic.

“On the news?” Kaylin asked him. She wasn't shocked to hear anything anymore. Tony always did something stupid, but he could handle it most of the times.

“Yes, are you coming?” Kaylin took a breath and steered her car to the right.

“Yeah, I'm on my way.” Kaylin broke of the connection and wiped her hand over her face.

Why, Tony, why? She thought and took a turn. She drove through the drive-in of Starbucks and ordered a Frappuccino and breakfast.

“Would that be all?” The man asked.

“Yes, thank you.” Kaylin responded and drove to the window. She paid and got her meal pretty quickly.

When she exited the drive-in she drove to Tony's house with a bad feeling.

Tony's mansion
Location: Malibu

Kaylin pulled up and saw that the giant dog wasn't standing outside of the mansion anymore.

She grabbed her coffee and locked the car.

When Kaylin approached the door it swung open. She saw Tony standing in the doorway.

“Well, I don't have to knock now.” Kaylin chuckled as Tony stepped aside.

“J.A.R.V.I.S. warned me when you pulled up on the driveway.” Tony said and he started walking to the staircases.

“Yeah, I was wondering,” Kaylin started, “why did you use my dad's voice?”

“He was the one person to help me - us - when my parents died. So, when he died too, I kind of lost everything and started making things to remember him. I ended up with an AI which I called Just A Rather Very Intelligent System, or J.A.R.V.I.S. for short.” Tony explained and they entered the garage.
