A/N: This time I was lazy enough to not even bother proofreading. Yay.
The last chappie only got 3 reviews, and one was from someone I know in real life. I'm sad. D=
Disclaimer: I'm too sad to think of something witty. I don't own Alex Rider, okay?
The next morning, Alex woke up feeling refreshed and ready to take on whatever the day had in store for him.
That is, of course, until he remembered he had been kidnapped by giant evil jellybeans.
Alex rolled quickly out of bed. Today was the day Cinnamon said he would kill him. And Alex was determined to make it the day he would escape.
Soon enough, two armed jellybeans opened his cell door. Alex recognized one of them as Caramel Corn. The other was pure white. And, of course, both had guns matching their respective colours.
Caramel Corn gestured for Alex to follow them. "Out," he ordered bluntly.
Alex raised his hands in mock-surrender and followed the two jellybeans out of the cell. "Whatever you say, captain."
This only earned a deadly glare from Caramel Corn (yes, jellybeans can glare). "If you know what's good for you, you'll shut your smartass mouth up, you-" before he could finish, the previously silent white jellybean rested a hand gently on his shoulder (yes, jellybeans have shoulders). "Caramel Corn, don't hurt him. Cinnamon wants him healthy before the kill," the new jellybean murmured.
Caramel Corn spun around and snarled at his companion. "You shut up too, newcomer," he retorted angrily. "You think you're so great, always kissing up to the boss, acting all passive and stuff, but oh, I know the truth about you, you're just a concieted little bitch who-"
"Shut up."
"...What?"
"Shut up, fool! While you were going on your little tirade, it seems young Alex has gone missing!" The white jellybean hissed.
"..."
An awkward silence descended upon the room. Finally...
"Fuck," Caramel Corn swore.
The white jellybean rolled his eyes. "'Fuck' is right. Quite a prediactment we've got ourselves here, wouldn't you say?" the sarcasm was so thick the air tempurature dropped about 10 degrees celsius.
"Wait a minute..." Caramel Corn turned and stared warily at the white jellybean. "You were the last one in the cell when we came. You were the one who left the door open so Alex could escape, Coconut." He narrowed his eyes accusingly.
The white jellybean, Coconut, shot Caramel Corn a blank, easy smile. "Is that so?"
"You... you bloody traitor!" With that, Caramel Corn lunged at Coconut, preparing to tackle him down. Coconut, however, abruptly stepped to the side, causing Caramel Corn to crash into the wall. The white jellybean turned around calmly before taking on a fighting stance (yes, jellybeans can take on fighting stances). "Oh, I'm a traitor all right, but bloody? Not yet; you, my friend, are the one who will be bloody." For the first time, Coconut let his natural American accent seep into his voice.
Caramel Corn gasped. "You... you're American!"
"CIA, actually." With that, Coconut twisted backwards and swiftly dealt the other jellybean a blow to the temple, effectively knocking him out cold.
The white jellybean straightened and dusted off his (nonexistent) hands. "It seems the party is finally starting."
"Quiet! I heard something just now!"
"Really!?!? Could it be an intruder!?!"
Alex ducked back behind the corner and swore under his breath. He'd been heard, and it wouldn't be long before he was found.
Sure enough...
A dark green jellybean whipped around and stared hard at the corner Alex had just disappeared behind. "Hey! I saw something move over there!"
"After the intruder!"
Alex let out another muffled curse and sprinted away from the group of jellybeans. By now the group had spotted him and were pulling out their respective guns. One had apparently pressed some sort of alarm, because the intercoms had begun to emit a high-pitched, wailing siren. "Alert, Alert! The prisoner has escaped! Repeat, the prisoner has escaped! All teams to sector D-39, corridor 5!" The speakers blared.
One jellybean, a pale pink one, was gaining on Alex fast. The abnoxiously colored jellybean smirked and pointed his pink gun at him. At the last minute, Alex paused in his tracks and caught the jellybean in a vicious roundhouse, rendering him unconscious.
Unfortunately, whilst Alex was engaged by the pink jellybean, another jellybean, this one lavender with darker violet splotches, took the opportunity to sneak up behind him and deliver a kick towards Alex's unprotected back. Alex gasped at the impact, temporarily winded. However, he soon regained his breath and darted out using a gap between two approaching jellybeans.
Running along a new corridor, Alex glanced around for some sort of safezone. Cells, cells, cells, locked storage compartment, cells... Crap! Suddenly, a white jellybean poked his head out from behind a door. Alex recognized it as one of the guards from earlier. The spy made to sprint the the opposite direction, but the white jellybean shook his (nonexistent) head violently and silently motioned for Alex to join him in the room. Alex debated for a moment what to do, but once he heard the approaching footsteps of the other jellybeans, he threw caution to the wind and hastily tore into the room.
A/N: I lied. Next chapter will be the last... And then maybe an epilougue.
Review, please? D=
