Zac was lying down on his bed reading his favorite novel "No Clues Left Behind”. He decided to go down stairs and make himself a cup of coffee. Suddenly, he heard a clatter-like sound coming from the living room. He rushed to see what had happened. Little did he know his life was about to take a huge turn. He saw a tall, dark-bearded man sitting on his sofa.
Ah! Said Zac! Hello.
“Hello! Who are you?” said Zac befuddled
Questions later, please. So, my name is Walter Granger. I work for a spying agency known as the “Blue Espionage Agency” We deal with water-related spying issues such as underwater attacks and other issues which could cause harm to the marine system in any way. Blue also because if you open your watch you will see a distinctive blue-coloured chip which we used for our selection process, this is our symbol. We have unique tests to test this color of blue which you will learn later in your training process. I know you love swimming and are a professional swimmer yourself and like most other athletes you wish to represent your country, but by joining this academy you will be doing a great service to the country. Also, you are a certified scuba diver, good in geography, love marine biology and mathematics and love all kinds of science and have an interest in Espionage, as I see you were reading a detective book written by me. Thomas is my pen name. Ok so now you may ask your queries
Zac was speechless but after recollecting himself he said, "How do you know so much about me? Can I tell my parents?" he said in a thrilled voice.
For your first question, the chip in your watch helped us with all the information we needed, and the second question No! Absolutely not! Your parents can never know where you are. They will be told you are going to the Luxenberg school of sports and academics. My parents were told the same and now they think that I am a writer. The school is in Germany, but they will be told for safety precautions that it is in Belfast.
They heard the car pull into the garage. “Here come my parents”, exclaimed Zac
Walter told Zac's parents about the school and they were astonished for a moment but when they saw the images and came to know it was genuine and he got full scholarship they were convinced and readily agreed. His school started in two weeks and he had that much time to mentally prepare himself.
Two weeks flew by with the blink of an eye. He packed his bag. His parents dropped him at the airport where he met Walter and then Walter took him into a secret underway passage which then led to the secret base where all the students of different ages were boarding the plane. It was a blue humongous military airplane. ‘I don’t think these planes are known to the public world," thought Zac to himself. Once he boarded the plane, he fell deep asleep.
His eyes opened when he heard children chattering. He saw that everyone was changing into a swimsuit. He thought he was seeing things, as to why someone would wear swimsuits on a plane, right? He asked one of the seniors sitting next to him about what had happened, and he said that all the swimmers would be required to jump into the river. A test of their energy and skill. He briskly walked to the bathroom and changed into his swim suit. Abruptly all of them were asked to jump then. While jumping and between the shrieking of the students they heard Mr. Granger saying, “This year the person who comes last would have to take extra fitness classes for the rest of the year. Also the people who come in the top five will have the best bunker. All the best Girls and boys." We all swam as fast as we could because nobody wanted to attend extra classes for the rest of the year and be at the back.
Surprisingly I came second after a girl named Mariana Ortego. She was an eight-year old student and one of the most beautiful ones Zac had ever seen. Her entire family had been in the spying group from around the world and therefore she had been doing all this since she learnt how to walk. As they reached the base he saw that his dormitory was amazing. He shared it with Mike, Charles, Zoe, and Mariana.
He was elated that night and slept peacefully until he heard the doorknob rattle. His eyes were dopey and everything around him was blurred. In a fraction of a second, he was under a man who was pointing a gun at him. He screamed loudly.
“They all are unconscious,” he said maliciously. “Give me the watch!” said the man, wanting to be in possession of all the information of the agency . All of a sudden Mariana came out of nowhere and attacked him from behind. He fainted. This was too much to digest for on the first day of school even at the school of spies.
To be continued...
