"Hey James, we brought in a weird one. You and Mason are to get some answers out of him." called a normal police officer. With a sigh James Hale stood up and tossed the rest of his coffee into the sink.
"Why do I get all the weird ones?"
"Cause your good at it. I haven't even gotten a name out of him yet." replied the officer.
"Hey, Mason. We have something called work." James yelled at his partner, shaking him awake.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." groaned Mason. James Hale had decided to become a police officer after seeing one of his best friends change, while no one knows for sure, into a druggie. Then, one day, he just stopped going to school. No one ever heard or saw him again. Alex Rider just disappeared. That had been 9 years ago. Mason Knight had gone to Brookland as well. While they had been enemies in high school, they become very good partners. Quickly James made sure that he looked completely professional before looking into the one way window. What he saw shocked him.
"Bloody hell. It's Rider." Mason murmured.
"Well, at least we know his name now, why don't you search him up." James said slightly disoriented. Mason nodded moving over to the computer and said
"Call if anything happens." James only waved him off and opened the interrogation room door.
"Alex Rider." he said. Alex looked at him and raised an eyebrow then said
"James, it's been a while."
"Care to explain why your here?" James questioned, he had thought that his glare was pretty good. After all, many people gave in after seeing it. Alex met his eyes and said firmly
"Not really."
"You know you don't have a choice right?" James pushed. At this Alex tilted his head to the side and replied
"I always have a choice, just I have to be persuaded to talk." Before James could answer Mason came in on the speaker.
"Hey James, you might want to see this." Reluctantly James got up and looked at Alex. Alex simply made a go on gesture with his handcuffed hands.
"What is it."James snapped at Mason.
"Look at his record." Mason whispered. James turned to look,
Murdered Sergeant Jacobs from SAS
Murdered John Crawly, MI6
Main Suspect in murder of the French Embassy
Murdered Alan Blunt, past head of MI6
Dealings with Snakehead
Dealings with Scorpia
Main Suspect in Blue Knight case
Main Suspect in Swallowtail case.
He stopped reading. That wasn't even a full page of the hundreds of pages. All of them filled with horrible crimes that Alex Rider supposedly committed. Both of them were silent for a minute. Then Mason spoke up and said
"There was also this." He brought up another page, this one said
Attention, Alex Rider is a known assasin. Approach with caution. If captured, call immediately the number below
1-258-823-1516
Alex Rider is to be brought in alive for interrogation under orders of MI6.
"MI6. Alex is an, an, assassin? Have you already called the number?" James finally asked
"Yeah, they should be here in a couple of minutes." Mason replied. Sure enough people started to enter through the doors. There were a couple SAS units along with several agents.
