Hey, guys! This is Caroline (I know it took forever, I'm sorry. Truly, I am) and it'll be told mainly from Dan and Caroline's perpectives, although it will go to some of the other characters' in later chapters. I'll make sure to put the name of who's POV it is at the top of each chapter, just so you know.
Biting my lip against the pain, I ran into the park, unknowingly backing myself into a corner until it was too late. Glancing around wildly, I looked around desperately for an escape route that refused to emerge.
Terrified, I raised my eyes to look at the two guys. They both appeared to be in their mid to late twenties, wearing black and were heavily built. There was no getting away from them now.
"What do you want with me?" I whimpered, shifting my weight to my good foot.
"You must come with us to find that out." The guy on the right said.
"I'm not going anywhere with you." I said.
"Very well." The other guy said. Before I could even move, he lunged forward and smashed something into the side of my head, and immediately my world was enveloped in darkness.
I groaned as I slowly woke, fighting against the pounding pain in the side of my head.
"Caroline Morgan." A voice said. It was male, and young – not as young as me, probably in his early twenties. It was dark, but I could see that he was tall and had blonde curly hair that had been cropped short.
I glared up at the figure and tried to get up, finding that my wrists were bound behind my back. "How the hell do you know my name?"
The man smiled. "MI9 have been watching you for some time, Miss Morgan."
"MI . . . You've got be joking." I said, rolling my eyes.
"I am not." The man said. "You impressed my superiors when you, along with your brother and Miss London, were held hostage by V95."
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. V95 had poisoned herself, which in turn had poisoned Zoe. Dan had been taken to keep Zoe from trying anything and I had been taken simply to keep Dan in line, although with the condition that Zoe was in, he would have willingly allowed V95 to kill him, if it meant that V95 would spare mine and Zoe's lives. I hadn't actually done anything, apart from making sure I didn't go completely insane.
"Ever since then, MI9 have been keeping a close eye on you, Caroline."
"And why would they do that?" I asked. "To see if the nightmares aren't keeping me up all night? Well, I haven't had nightmares since I was a kid, so if you could let me go, that'd be great – "
"You're not here so we can check on you, Caroline. If we wanted to do that, we'd just ask Dan."
Yeah, if you could get him to stop making out with Zoe for five seconds. "So what's the point of having your goons chase after me and abduct me in a local park?"
"Because we wanted to see whether or not you had potential."
Frustrated, I hissed through my teeth. We were going around in circles and my patience was wearing thin. Jesus Christ, just get to the point.
"The potential to be an agent." The man said, just as the lights went up and I found myself staring around me in awe.
"My name is Oscar Cole." The man said. "Welcome to MI High."
I gaped at him as he twisted his head to look behind him and said, "Come on out, guys. Come meet your new teammate."
"Is she hot?" I heard a male voice ask.
"Uh . . . um, could you untie me maybe?" I asked Oscar as three figures stepped out of the shadows. Oscar nodded and knelt down behind me, his fingers quickly untying the ropes around my wrists. I sighed in relief, rubbing my sore wrists as I finally saw the features of the three figures. I noticed that they all were roughly my age and there were two guys and one girl.
"Hi!" The girl chirped. "I'm Vanessa." I noticed that, like me, Vanessa was short, but unlike me, she had long, dark brown hair and matching brown eyes that sparkled with mischief. She had delicate features and golden, sun-browned skin and when she spoke, she had an odd accent. It took me a moment to place it.
"You're Australian?" I asked, grinning. I'd always had a fascination with Australia.
Vanessa grinned. "You noticed? Most people just say I talk funny. Yeah, I'm on loan to MI9 from the ASIO."
"What's the ASIO?" I asked, my brow furrowing in confusion.
"Australian Security Intelligence Offices." Oscar replied. "The Australian Secret Service."
The two guys laughed and I turned to look at the guy on Vanessa's right. He was tall, only a little shorter than Dan. He had unruly dark brown hair, a mass of unkempt brown curls. His eyes were the same shade as the ocean. I could have sworn that he and Vanessa were brother and sister, until he spoke and displayed a deep voice, laced with a similar accent to my own. It made his voice sound softer, gentler. "I'm Camden. Camden Aurgur."
He smiled lazily at me and I crossed my arms over my chest, fixing him with an unamused look. "So you're the flirt, are you?"
Camden grinned. "You're smart."
I raised my eyebrows. "Surprised, are you?"
Camden didn't answer and I rolled my eyes, turning to the second boy. I noticed that he was tall – taller than Camden, taller than Dan. He had soft brown hair that he wore cut short and fathomless dark brown eyes and paired with his strong jaw and nose and full lips, it was hard to deny that he was gorgeous.
"I'm Caroline." I said to him.
"We know." Vanessa said with a grin. "Ainsworth's been excited about you coming for roughly a month – Caroline Morgan, the twin sister of the legendary Daniel Morgan."
I looked towards the taller boy – Ainsworth – and smiled. "Ainsworth? You've met my brother?"
"First, don't call me Ainsworth. That name has been in my family for three generations. Just call me James."
"James?" I asked.
Ainsworth grinned. "It's my middle name. It's much more modern than . . . Ainsworth."
I giggled. He said it as if the name burned in his mouth. "Why don't you use Ains?"
He grinned again. "Maybe I will."
"So what's your specialities?" I asked, glancing between Ains, Vanessa and Camden.
"You're all pretty well-rounded." Oscar said. "But Ains is a hacker, Camden's a master of disguise and can speak seven languages and Vanessa's a fighter."
"Then what does that make me?" I asked. "The back-up?"
Ains grinned. "Nice to know you're modest. I've seen the CCTV footage of you running from those MI9 agents. You, Miss Caroline Morgan, are our parkour expert."
Thankyou to those of you who gave me OC's - it really helped! I'll post a picture on my Twitter account ( IWillBelieveIt) to show you what Caroline, Ainsworth, Camden and Vanessa look like. I'm sure you can imagine what Oscar would look like. If you guys could review, I'd love it!
