I-spy

“But…wha…huh?..WHAT!” Sky was speechless and yet so confused. How the hell could he have done that, that’s not possible! Sky just kept looking at Tyler with what was her new signature expression. Some would say it was her ‘puzzled’ face, whatever it was Sky still couldn’t believe a word Tyler had just said.

“I don’t want anything,” she said setting her confusion aside. She was too embarrassed over her two minute emotional breakdown to even look at him in the eye with some honour.

“How far are we from headquarters?” She mumbled as she began to quicken her pace.

 

"Aww c'mon no need to be embarrassed" Tyler said catching up to Sky "I mean its normal for anyone to have an emotional breakdown in the middle of the street" Tyler teased.

"Wait Sky!, I'm sorry he said to her as he once again caught up to her, C'mon let me make it up to you" He said walking backwards so he was facing her.

"Whoa.." Tyler said as he landed on the ground, His guitar case had gotten caught on a stand and had sent him toppling over.

 

“Tyler! Are you alright!?” Sky was worried but at the same time she couldn’t help but laugh. She giggled then let out her hand for him to hold on to.

“I’m sorry but you have to admit that was funny,” she teased. Hehe, who’s the embarrassed one now. She let out another giggle.

“That’s Karma for you,” she laughed.

 

"Karma suck's" Tyler laughed as he let Sky help him to his feet.

"Now that your happy again how about I take you shopping, Ill probably regret the offer but what the heck" Tyler looked into Sky's face waiting for an answer.

 

“Hehe, Shopping,” Sky’s face lit up with a rather large grin. Numerous items of clothing flashed in her mind.

“Now that you mention it,” She had started to ramble on with a list of items she just had to have.

“And you could do with a haircut,” she teased. Sky’s mood had shifted rapidly into a more hyper overdrive. If only Alex was here, then it would be perfect. She sighed then took a deep breath.

“Shouldn’t we head back to headquarters first?”

 

"Why so you can see your boyfriend" Tyler teased

"I doubt he will be there, he's probably making kissy face's with that other girl he teased again" Tyler pulled out his wallet "look iv got all you need" He said producing a plastic card and waving it in front of Sky's face.

 

“AHH he’s not my boyfriend!” Sky began to blush while being ever so slightly annoyed with Tyler. Tyler’s right, he is probably with Nicky.

“That’s a pretty credit card you got there, mind if I borrow it, hehe.” She grabbed the credit card and in a second was running 4 yards ahead of him, ever so slightly making her way to the shops. Sky loved to tease and joke with Tyler, he made her happy. The thought of going shopping made her even happier. The sun was out and the birds were singing. The whole environment around them all so suddenly changed into a happy one. It seemed to good to be true, but it was true. For now that is.

 

"That's not fair, Sky.. wait up" Tyler said trying to dodge the crowd's, Having his guitar case with him didn't make it any easier.

"Sky?" Tyler asked not seeing her, Hope she hasn't run off with my card he thought to himself which made him smile.

 

Sky was quickly making her way through the crowd of people; it was easy for her slender body to quickly move amongst them. She enjoyed annoying Tyler, with his card she knew exactly how to do it. Shopping spree, hehe , she thought to herself. Five minutes had already past and Sky had already forgotten about Tyler. She was too busy trying to get away from him so she could shop. The colourful scenery of the city had slowly disappeared into a dull grey.

“Where am I?”She enquired. She had seemed to have stumbled upon a dark alley. Ergh, its freezing, how the hell did I get here? Just then she heard footsteps and the small squelching noise shoes make when wet. I’m not the only one here, once again she lowered her hand towards her holster.

“Hey, you’re a pretty one aren’t you,” a man emerging from shadows said.

“And look, she has a pretty credit card too,” a second man followed, however this one had a high pitched voice.
They began to encircle Sky, where’s Tyler when you need him she thought. The two men were getting closer now, she could see the taller ones rough face. He had a stern noise and beady eyes.

“C’mon Love, don’t be afraid.” He said to Sky with a large twisted grin showing off all four of his gold teeth.

“…eh,” Sky kept taking a few steps back, she soon found herself leaning against the cold alley walls. Someone help me,Tyler! Help me, was all she wanted to scream. Yet she could barely open her mouth to breath. Her only choice was to use her gun, but could her conscience allow it?

 

The stranger had taken Sky by surprise. If anyone was to come rescue her, she was expecting it to be Tyler. He took my gun. She was slightly annoyed yet thankful for his arrival.

“Who are you?!” She didn’t know if this guy was trouble or not. Just because he saved me doesn’t mean he’s a good guy. After all he took my gun! And woah look at that Katana. She was staring at the sword, then at the strange man who had just leaped out of nowhere. She couldn’t quite see his face, it was dark in the alley.

 

Sky replaced her empty holster with her gun, it felt good to have it back. She could see the man quite clearly now, once they had started to walk out of the alley. He wasn’t a man but a boy, the same ages as Alex.

“You still never told me your name,” Sky stated. Too many events had happened in one day, first the car crash, then an attempted mugging, now mystery boy. She was so confused and disorientated, she just wanted to get back to headquarters. Shopping had come out as a failure, the past 10 minutes had put her off. All she now thought about was seeing Alex.

 

Wow this guy is weird, Sky was not at ease with Ikito, he seemed to be hiding something. She just had a strange feeling about him, how did he know Alex? Should I ask him that, or maybe he thinks I’m asking too many questions? She said to herself thinking of what to ask.

“This is spying, it’s wrong to spy on others.” She pointed out to Ikito. Sky really wanted to stay and find out what was really going on between Alex and Nicky, yet she couldn’t spy on Alex. Or could she?

 

"Yeah a bit strange." Nicky said watching them run by. She was confused by it.

"HEY!" Nicky yelled to them. She didn't think of what she just did.

"What's the big rush?" Nicky asked the two running people.

 

Nicole's eye twitch.

"Bad idea, buddy." Nicole said. Realy quick she grabbed his arm and twisted it behing her back. She brought her other free hand down on his arm as a loud crack was heard.

"That's the advantage for when your father's a martial arts teacher." Nicole siad as hse kicked the guy to the ground and punched him. She looked down at him.

 

"Hmph, what exactly did you do? I just beat up that guy." Nicky said crossing her arms. Who was the guy, she never seen him before, she's been friends with Alex since pre-k, they haven't seen each other in seventh grade, 3 years ago.
