Undercover

Chapter 1:

Alex went over the file MI6 has given him one last time. He was going undercover as a rich kid called Alex Richardson at a private school. It was a very prestigious school where a lot of important people's children attended and was supposed to be one of the safest places in England.

Alex was going undercover as a student so he could protect the students without alerting anyone that there was a problem. MI6 had received an anonymous message saying that there was a plan to infiltrate the school and kidnap the children so their parents would pay to get them back.

It was 6am and Alex decided it was time to get ready for his first day at the school. He arrived at the school just before 8am. He got there early so he could walk around a bit before the lessons started in order to familiarise himself with the building.

So far he had worked out that in each year the students were dived into five groups each with an assigned teacher. The students would meet in these groups twice a day for 30 minutes at a time. In the morning at 8:20 and after lunch at 1:30. In these meetings they would discuss various topics such as their family's, future careers, and sometimes they just talked about how their day was going.

Alex looked at his watch and realised it was almost 8:15. He walked to the main office and introduced himself. He was then given a sheet of paper with his timetable printed on it. Written by hand at the bottom is the sheet was the number 1.07. "That's the room where your group meet, it's on the first floor room seven the number should be next to the door." The man who gave him the paper explained. "Have a good first day." He said before returning to his desk. "Thanks." Alex muttered in response. He had a bad feeling about this.

10 minutes later Alex found the right room. He was now a few minutes late but he hoped that his assigned teacher wouldn't be too harsh on him on his first day. Alex pushed open the door. The room was bright with yellow and white painted walls. He muttered an apology to his teacher who just smiled at him understanding that it was hard to find the right room in a new school. Gratefully, Alex walked over to an empty desk and sat down while the teacher introduced him to the students as Alex Richardson before continuing with the lesson.

Alex was now once again sitting in the same classroom. This time he was a few minutes early so he could make a better impression. His morning had been okay. No one had really acknowledged he was there but Alex was okay with that. The less attention on him the better. Everyone was sitting at their desk discussing what they would want to do in the future when they were interrupted by the door shutting and someone walking into the room.

"I'm sorry I'm late the traffic was terrible and I had to go to the..." the girl stopped talking frozen in shock. "Alex?" She murmured.

It was Fiona Friend!

Fortunately for Alex, the teacher interrupted. "Please take a seat Fiona. I was going to introduce our new student but it seem you already have met. Because of that you will be the one to show him around the school and take him to lessons for the next couple of weeks. Please take a seat next to Alex, we were just discussing our future careers."

Fiona got over her shock and walked over to Alex. "What are you doing here? She whispered. Alex knew he had no other option except to tell her the truth. She already knew too much about him and his past.
