“Oh, you’re awake?” He stopped, then continued, “I noticed your cheek was bleeding so I put some disinfectant on it before it will scar your face.”
“Oh…Thanks,” I said. Letting him do what he wants. I just watch him as he gently pats my face. I went in deep thought…if he happened to be my superior and not Wave, would I get attached to him also? What if he was the one who saved me seven years ago, would things be different? He may be a playfully flirt but Agent Rush knows how to treat a woman…he’s a great man…this is contrary to what I thought about him when I first met him. I hated him back then but now…He caressed my cheek, and look at my eyes carefully. I met his gaze but stopped when something rang.
He answered his earpiece, “Yes, dad?” He replied. "Yes, sir. We'll be back by dinner sir." I hear him saying before turning to me. "It's getting late, we should be back, Mr. Martins is looking for you."
“It is crazy how I am his own son but what he was worrying

There was a loud banging on my door the moment I woke up. Opening the door, I was shocked to see my superior, Agent Wave, standing outside. His eyebrows were meeting, clearly in a bad mood. “Allister? What’s wrong?”He huffed. “I just received something.”“Oh, then? Does that have something to do with me? Why did you wake me up early in the morning?”He showed me a paper bag, “Do you know what is this?”“A paper bag?” I answered. He handed it to me and said, “Open it.”Doing as he told, I saw one piece of pink slipper inside, “What am I supposed to do with this?”“Can you guess who gave this to me?”As he said that, I remembered the paper bag which is familiar, it was Agent Rush’s gift for him! Processing everything, I gasped.“Good, you seem to be familiar with who might be the one who gave me thi
My wristwatch beeped and the hologram of Mr. Martins face appeared. "I need you in my office. Now." And it disappeared.I packed my things and went to Mr. Martins' office, he said I should wait here. I was wearing the black tight uniform. I sighed and went to Mr. Martins's office."You were looking for me?" I said as soon as I entered his office."You have a new mission," he said.I nodded my head."Who will I be partnered with?" I asked.Just in time, a voice called out from the door and revealed the one and only, Allister."You called for me? Mr. Martins's?" He said showed up."Oh just in time Agent Wave, He's your partner, Hira." Mr. Martins said."Why him?" I blurted out without thinking but regretted it. The both of them looked at me like I was mad"Why? You have a problem with that, Agent Nova?" Mr. Martins asked. "I trust you both because you two had been going on missions for years now."I
"Hmm.." I leaned towards him. "Does it matter?" I purred on his ear.The man stood frozen. I stared at his face, memorizing it. When he regained his self, he stared back at me and smirked. "It matters."I opened my mouth to speak when an arm protectively held me. "Mr. Dame." It was Wave's voice. He eyed the man suspiciously. "I see you found my fiance. Thank you.""It's a pleasure." The man who I think Mr. Dame nodded, eyeing me like a hawk."I'm afraid we have to go, Mrs. Adams." Wave said gently but I read his eyes and there was an alarm on his voice. I instantly agreed and looked at Mr. Dame. "My fiance, Mr. Adams is in a hurry. I apologize." With that, Wave gripped my hands and pushed me away from the guy."We have a mission.""I know.""What were you doing there?""Jealous much?" I smirked. "I was just socializing like what you did back there.""Avoid that man. That man is powerful and dangerous. You wouldn't want to get involved in
I covered my mouth as Wave moved."Did you regret coming with me to the agency?" He asked. Is he awake? Did he catch what I just said? Shit."No," I answered."In these 7 years you are here, I know you still don't trust us, so I'll make you trust me.""No, I trust you." I lied.He kept quiet, piercing his eyes on me. I smiled at him for an added effect to make him believe me. No, he should not know my plan."Okay." He said when he was finally satisfied and fall asleep.With that, I lay on the other side of the sofa and fell asleep.I woke up to the sound of Wave mumbling a loud curse. I sat upright and saw the irritated look on his face."it was a fake." Wave looked at me, breathing deeply. "I knew it! Damn it!""By the way, what is Cade doing here?""He saved us.""No. Did I tell you to stay away from him?""Oh, and who are you to tell that to me?"We rested for another day and C
We rushed back to our room and prepared ourselves. I packed a small bag with my knives and bombs on it, and of course, my lovely sniper. "I think it's time for us to show our talent, my dear," I said to my sniper, smirking. When nine minutes passed, I hurried to get to Mr. Martins's private plane. With a pilot whom I don't recognize, Mr. Warner was seated on the front seat. On the back, Wave and I centered Mr. Martins. To protect him when something happens. It was an 8-hour trip and it was held in Hongkong. We got our sleep on the plane, but I couldn't sleep thinking about the plan and the excitement I'm feeling. By the time we arrived in Hongkong, we headed straight into a bar. Inside the bar, it has a secret tunnel leading to a small room with a round table. It has a pool table, sofa, and elegant designs. We wore formal dress and I was in my midnight blue dress, with Wave on his gray suit and Mr. Martins on his suit also, with Mr. Warner on hi
I woke up by the sound of chains juggling.Where am I? Where's Wave? Flashbacks entered my mind. The mission to kill Mr. German, K-9 appearing and guarding him...but them killing their own master...My hands and feet were held in a chain, my mouth and eyes covered in cloth. I was lying on the ground so I forced myself to sit up and chew on the cloth in my mouth to remove it. When I removed it, I smelled the place, it smelled rust, blood, and stinky.When I was sure that no one was here anymore, I spoke out, blindfolds still on my eyes blocking my view. "Hello?"I heard coughing from a distance. "Allister?" I asked.“Hira.” A familiar voice called out, and it was Wave just from the cell beside me. “Are you okay?” He asked.“I’m fine, Wave, but you’re coughing out blood!” I yelled.He chuckled, “Things got pretty messed up, didn’t it?”“Why are you chuckling?
I woke up to the sunlight hitting my face. I feel like it's been so long since I saw the sunlight. I spotted the strange guy who's claiming he's my stepbrother holding a tray of food."Eat first." He said. I did as he was told."Where are you taking me now?""To our father, he wants to talk to you.""Okay." I still don't believe him.When I finished eating, he let me fix myself and we went to my "dad""She's here." The strange guy said.I walked inside and saw a man. He was old."Goodmorning, my child, take a seat. I will explain something to you.""I"m Garret Norman."Wait, that name's familiar."Yes, I was the chemist who found the new element Oryx and developed the orb.And I'm your true father. I understand that you will not
Days passed by and I'm still here stuck in my so-called family.Wave was not true to his words. That man. He said he'll be back and trust him because he has a reason. I swear if I saw that man again..."Hey, brother," I called out to him. Rouge was standing by the cell, keeping an eye on me. He said I should call him my brother since we were family. " Tell me his reason..." I was bugging him for days now.He sighed. "He's gonna kill me...I promised not to.""What are you, five? C'mon.""He may be suspected that you are safer here...he has a plan. He wants to kill someone there...and told me not to tell this to you because she knows you, you'll return there..."He has to finish his mission and the mission for him is to return you back here. He's gonna get promoted also. And I know he wants his father, Mr. Martins to get proud of him, he's gonna be announced that he's his son.""That's a bait!""Exactly. Wave is the kind of person who
It all felt like a dream. Opening my eyes, I saw James beside me. He noticed me waking up so he ran to the door. “She’s awake already!” People came rushing into my bed and looked around. Nurses and doctors checked my state. The doctor sighed. “Thankfully, you just lost some blood. You would have been already dead if you took the whole hit.” And they left. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. “Huh?” James appeared again with some water and made me drink first. “I’m glad you’re awake now.” “How many days have I been out? What happened?” I asked, still confused. I looked around, it was the Cypher Agency’s hospital ward. Then I remembered my brother.
“We’ve arrived.” Announced one of our K-9 companions. “I want you all to stay here first until I give a signal. It’s me that they want.” I said to them and they nodded. All of us were prepared to win, even with only a little preparation time. I got out of the car and spotted the old warehouse. This was what the coordinates say according to the K-9’s investigations. I’ll find you, brother. Entering the warehouse, the place seemed eerily quiet...strangely quiet. I was not even attacked… Weird. Looking around, I headed straight and saw a stage in front. “Hello,
I don't want to side to anyone, not to my father, not to my brother... so I’ll build my own. “We don’t have time and I need back up to infiltrate.” I continued. “I don’t have a choice but to trust you guys. This blood in my hands is from the sniper woman who killed Coach Brian. No, I did not kill the sniper woman but she was killed by another person. So I need your help. Come with me first and I’ll explain everything. But first, I want you all to know I am not Zen.” Silence fell and they all just stared at me. Noah chuckled, breaking the silence. “We know that already.” I looked at him. He..they did? Wow, way to go. “Yeah, we knew it.” James nodded from beside me.
“Now as a celebration, let us all go eat dinner. I’ll treat you all.” Said Coach Brian when they were finished from the training. “Come and join us, Zen.” I stood up and joined them. When I heard a bullet striking from afar and Coach Brian fell on the ground, with blood gushing down his mouth. Looks like it started then. I had already expected this to happen. They got tired of bombs that they chose a sniper to hunt me now? I won’t let them win this time. This time, I’ll fight back. I touched my earpiece, “Uncle Rush looks like the enemy is not wasting their time. They shot our coach. ” I asked. “Yes, I already deployed our medics there. Come and go ho
Deciding what to do now, I’ve dialed Uncle Rush’s number. “Hello Zinnia? What is it?” I heard him asking from the other line. Smirking, I said. “Uncle Rush, I think I know what I’m going to do now.” “What is it?” He asked. “I’ll go back to school tomorrow.” Yes, I’ve decided now. That will be the first part of my plan. I could hear Uncle Rush sighing from the other line. “I’m glad that’s your decision. I hope you are well prepared for everything, Zen Alaric Malcolm,” he said, addressing me as my brother’s name. Unpacking all my stuff, I took a rest and slept early that night. Tomorrow for sure.
Think quick, Zinnia. Quick. How should I solve this? “Oh...I think my sister got home.” I said, going to my last resort and ending the call. Descending the stairs and going to the door, I fixed my appearance, letting my brunette hair cascade down my back, and didn’t wear my contact lenses to hide my blue eyes. It’s time to be myself then. Opening the door I spotted James and feigned a confused look and then smiled at him. “Oh, are you one of my brother’s friends?” I saw a blush that crept on James' cheeks as soon as he saw me. “Uhm...hi?” He greeted, sending a half-smile, seemingly nervous. I hope he won’t notice. But why is he nervous?
I contemplated whether I should answer this. Why now? I'm not in my undercover uniform! And if I answer this, he’ll know my true voice! “Can you give me my voice changer uncle?” I asked, now panicking.“It was brought back to the mechanics room on the third floor. It would take long for me to get it.” He answered as the phone still rang. I bit my lip, cursing under my breath. Damn it.I don’t have a choice then.Touching the answer button, I cleared my throat and pretended to cough. “Oh hey James, you called?” My heart was racing so fast in nervousness. Goodness!How did he even manage to get my phone number? I was sure I did not let them touch my phone...&ldq
My father’s eyes were like a hawk, and he glanced at the door to check if Uncle Rush was still there but saw that there was no sign of him, probably leaving us for privacy. I glanced at dad. “What did you want to talk about, dad?” He nodded and said. “I know it.” I raised my eyebrows in confusion, feeling chills. His authoritative and demanding side showing. I’m used to him getting like this but somehow, it feels new, “Know what, dad?” He glanced at the bedside table and checked to see some dust. He smirked. “Zen appeared here last night, didn’t he?” I gulped. How did he know? Oh right, he’s not Agent Wave of the Cypher Agency for nothing. Nothing escapes h
“You ask too many questions, sister.” Standing up, he leaned on me. “Wanna know a secret?” “A secret?” I breathed out. “I can free you from our parent's expectations.” He said. “Stop copying me. You are only hurting yourself. Soon, they will notice that you are not me.” “If I were you, I would just give up and join me. I just came to visit you just to say that. This is one last chance, Zinnia.” I looked at him in confusion. What? “What are you talking about Zen?” “Wanna go escape with me? Decide quickly, Zinnia.” I think I now have a bit of an idea of what he wants me to do. Stupid brother. What the hell are you planning?
