Back Home:

"Brianna's worried about Cody and Paige, I can see it in her eyes, and how she has been acting recently. We need to do somethinhg! We cant just sit here day and night waiting for something to happen that we both know will not happen!" Maddie told Deago.

"Look Maddie, Cody; i know your both really worried, but i'm working as fast as i can. I mean i have to keep this out of the radar. If i just start getting careless, and searching people without a reason CIA will get suspicious and have me suspended, transford, or who knows what else! I have to keep this on the down low O.K?"

Maddie and Cody are furious with Officer Deago, but at the same time happy he is at least TRYING! It was more then anyone else was doing. All of the sudden there was a lound knock at the door. Everyone stops what they are doing and puts all of there attention twoards the door waiting for another knock, but it never came. The kids slowly look at Officer Deago with a deathly worried look on there face.

"Guy's I need all of you to get back by Cody, who knows what this is." Deago says this with much power in his tone that nobody questions him, or thinks twice.

They all take about 3 steps back before Deago opens the box. His eyes closed expecting the worst.

Slowly , ever so slowly...he pulls up on on flap causing the box to fly open.

As it pops open, his fist reaction is to turn his head, close his eyes tightly, and cross his hands over his face and cover.

But...he doesn't need to! There was no bomb!

A breath of relief fills the room. All is silent .

As Deago slowly looks into the box he sees a piece of paper at the bottom. Just 1 tiny slip of paper at the bottom...
