Chapter 1: Oops
Kennedy’s POV
The day started out pretty normal, I got up and put on my favorite green maxi skirt, jean jacket, and baseball cap, then took my usual walk around the park, and now I am headed toward the coffee shop that has free wifi. But as I’m walking into the coffee shop I get the feeling that today will be anything but normal.
“Good morning Victoria.” I say to the girl behind the counter as I walk in.
“Good morning Kennedy. Your usual?” I nod in response and hand her two dollars and fifty cents, and she gives me my vanilla scone. I make my way back to my normal spot, a table for one in the back, but I stop dead in my tracks when I see a boy already sitting there. He has short brown hair and is wearing a red hoodie, I glare at him for a minute before turning and taking a seat on one of the bar stools at the counter. I slouch over and take a bite of my scone as I watch Victoria come towards me.
“What's wrong Kennedy, Your normal spot not good enough for you this morning?” She asks with a smile.
“There’s already someone sitting there.” I grump, Victoria leans over the counter to see.
“Oh yeah, him, he came in just befor you did,” the little bell above the door rings and we both turn to see a customer coming in, “Oops, gotta go, enjoy your scone." She adds then goes back to the cash register. I sit in silence and eat my scone, until something on the TV screen in the corner catches my eye, It’s a news story about something called S.H.I.E.L.D. I think I’ve heard that name before. I watch the rest of the news story not being able to hear most of it over the noise in the shop, but now my curiosity is piqued. I reach into my backpack and pulled out my silver laptop, as I open the top the screen immediately lights up and I go to work typing, I read web pages, watch news videos, and do all sorts of research. Hours pass as I sit typing and watching the crowd change around me, the boy is no longer sitting in my spot but I don’t move, I’m too involved in what I’m doing.
I pause in my work when Victoria comes around the counter and sits on the stool next to me, she hands me a sandwich.
“Thanks, but I don’t have anymore money.” I explain, handing the sandwich back.
“Don’t worry, It’s on me. So what have you been working on for the past three hours?” I take the sandwich and unwrap the plastic wrap.
“It’s nothing." I lie turning my screen so she can’t see it, I take a bite of my sandwich and go back to typing, just a few more keystrokes and I’ll be done.
“Must be a pretty important nothing if you spend three hours on it." Victoria nags, I see a loading bar telling me that it’s working and quickly close the screen as Victoria tries to grab it.
“Hey, no touchy!” I shout clutching my laptop to my chest, I heard it ding.
“Come on, what’s the big secret?” She wines.
“Nothing, now can I please get back to it?” I ask setting my laptop back on the counter.
“Why won’t you tell me, I thought we we're friends?” she fake pouts. Before I can answer the door bursts open and in come a bunch of men dressed in black and armed with large guns.
“Oops.” is all I can manage to say as I stare at them wide eyed
“What did you do!?” Victoria yells as she grabs my laptop and opens the screen, “you hacked into a government organization!?” She continues to yell. Of course the soldiers hear her and come right for me, I try to run but there’s nowhere to go, one of the soldiers grabs me and another holds a piece of cloth to my face, it smells sweet, I try struggling but it is no use, my limbs are getting tired, I go limp in their grasp, my eyelids feel heavy, I look around and see Victoria standing behind the soldiers confused and scared, then I slip away into unconsciousness.
