"see, I would join you, but there's the whole 'my dad works for the government' thing, and I think that would get in the way of your plans." after thinking about it a minute I sighed, "what would I have to do?" Since working for the government was not exactly top on my list, and ironically clashed with the whole vision my parents had in raising me.

The boys almost cheered, or wet themselves, I wasn't sure which. They were about to say something when these two kids came bursting through my door. "we want to join you!" they said in unison.

"and who are you?" I asked.

"Marty, I work with your dad."

"Daila, I live in Africa. Well, I did until Alex kidnapped me."

"Do you have a place we can hideout for a few days so Alex can't kill us?"

"tell your friends to keep it down, will ya?" my dad grumbled half asleep.
