Chapter Five:Spy Game's "How much longer will this take it's already twelve and we have to meet the other's at one"Pan said,looking at her watch. Pan and Bra sat in the van half a block away from Cole's apartment they huddled around a pocket t.v that Maron was wired to.Maron had a micro camara hidden in a gold charm that she was wearing on a neaclace it still amazed Pan that they actully made camera's that small.They watched with some amusment as Maron worked her magic with about half a dozen securety agent's,so far no imformation had been provided and Pan was getting impationant.She was about to vent her frustration's when Maron's voice blasted loudly from the little t.v "Wow you mean you guy's are securety agent's for Mr.Cole you can't mean the Billonaire owner of InterGlobe Industrey's" "One in the same"said a paticularly young agent obviously happy that this seemed to impress Maron. "Wow he must live in a penthouse on the very tip top of the building"Said Maron,she then streched her arm as high as she could and pointed her finger toward the sky and bounced up and down a little giggleing inanly.All agent's eye's were on her longingly and each of them were getting somewhat visious with eachother while vieing for her attention. "Yes he does and I'll tell you what why don't you join me on my round's and I'll give you a tour of the building and I'll even take you to the floor where Mr.Cole live's,of course I can't let you into the appartment for securety reason's but it might be fun for you to see how I do my job".said the same young securety agent trying to sound smooth but not quite pulling it off. Pan nearly screamed with excitment"This is perfect"she said her voice a hoarse whisper"Maron may not get in the appartment but at least we'll know exactly where he live's and the layout of the building and maybe we'll even learn when the guard's change duty and what kind of securety system they have". "Well I don't know if I can,I promised to meet some friend's and I don't know if I will have enough time to take a tour, I mean if I only get to see a hallway I don't know if I want to stand my friend's up for that"said Maron Twirling her hair and putting on a little pout. Pan could not beleave this"What is she doing is she crazy why would she say no to his offer?" "Calm down Pan Maron know's what she is doing"Bra replied cooly "Well I'm glad she does because I don't have a clue about what she is doing"Pan exclaimed. "That is because you are a tomboy you have no idea how to get what you want from a guy,the first lesson you need to know is act stupid boy can't resist a helpless brainless pretty face second lesson show a little skin not to much but just enough to make them want you thrid lesson play hard to get guy's alway's want something they think they can't have and finally never accept a first offer only use the first bid as a jumping off point before starting the negotiations,trust me Maron has them right where she want's them". Pan looked horrified"Yuk I don't care what kind of situation I was in I would never do anything like that it seem's so demeaning and cheap" "Well demeaning and cheap is going to get you into Cole's appartment so I would show a little more respect to your friend who is acting that way for you".replied Bra Pan's face burned red with embaresment"Of course I don't know why I would say something like that I guess I wasent thinking please don't tell Maron I don't want to hurt her feeling's". "Hey don't worry about it I can see your stressed out and not thinking clearly"chirped Bra.Both girl's turned there attention back to the T.V screen and even Pan had to say she was impressed within two second's the same young securety gaurd leaned into Maron's ear and whispered. "Well maybe I could give you a quick tour of Mr.Cole's appartment but you can't tell anybody or I would get in seriouse trouble,so what do ya say?" "I say yes I would love to join you on a tour of the Building replied Maron loudly.She then grabed the agent's arm and walked with him into the huge revolveing door's leaveing behind five broken harted securety agent's. Pan and Bra did a dance as they watched Maron walk through the entire building all the while keeping the agent talking about top secret stuff like the fact that Mr.Cole dident have a computer he had a labtop that he alway's had with him no matter what and also about Mr.Cole's secret meeting's with high ranking politian's and saftey inspector's. "I probably shouldent say this but I was watching that press confrence with that lady who own's Capsle Corp's,what's her name?"he asked Maron suddenly. Maron just gave him her best glazed over expresion and replied"I don't know I don't watch t.v it make's me very confused to many people and color's and.....I like color's espesaly rainbow coler's. "Right"he said with a smile"Well whatever her name is she was saying that she think's Cole is the one who contaminatid the lake and tried to sabotage her company well to be honest I don't think she's to far off the mark.I have never liked that guy and from what I see and hear around here he is involved in some shady buisness".The agent then had a look of regreat on his face and it seemed like he was worried about what he just said but a quickly as the look danced across his feature's Maron counter attacked it beautifly,she looked at him smiled vacently and said"I like shade esspesily when it is hot inside or is it outside oh well whatever.I sure am glad I decided to come on this tour with you I'm haveing lot's of fun talking about rainbow's and shade your so nice."she then cuddled into his arm and smiled brightly.Imidiatly the securety agent was put at ease again and they countiude there tour all the way to Cole's appartment. Maron walked thru two huge redwood door's and into Cole's lavish penthouse appartment silk oriantle rug's covered the hardwood floor's expensive painting's hung on rich gold painted wall's.Beautiful hand carved table's and chair's that were placed in all the right spot's, Pan figered they cost more then a college education,all in all Cole's appartment was very impresive but to Pan it seemed more like a museum then a home.and this was just the room at the main entrance. Maron countinude her tour with the gaurd they walked through the room's each one was more elaborit then the last.They finally came to the last door"This is Mr.Cole's bedroom,it's where he does most of his work". As they were about to journy into the room the door suddenly flew open and a surprised Mr.Cole sat there staring at the agent then his attention turned to Maron. "Agent Simms,what are you doing here you have main door duty today and who is this you know I don't like unannonced visiter's" "I'm sorry Sir I thought you werent home and I promised my sister that I would give her a tour of where I work"Simms replied nervosly. "Really well you can go back to the door"said Cole stareing Simms down with his steely grey eye's. "Yes Sir"Simms replied quickly"Come on Maron let's go" "I dident say Simms and his sister go back to the door did I?"asked Cole sharply "No Sir"replied Simms. "Good now Simms go back to the door and Simms sister come with me and I'll finish giveing you the tour of my home"said Cole shoeing Simms away and opening the door to his room.He let Maron go in first and then followed her in. Cole's room was not like the rest of his home it was a large room but there was so much junk lieing around that it looked like a storge closet,It was dark with only one window that,by comparison to the other window's in the appartment,was rather small.His bed was unmade and his desk was cluttered with paper's and on top of the paper's was a grey labtop that was on and running Maron positioned her body so the camera would show the computer screen. "Oh my goodness Pan"cried Bra excitedly"he is running his computer on the system designed by me my mother and Trunk's this is perfect,there are ton's of way's to hack into that system all you need to do is know all the system's flaw's and I do this is great. "Your not Simms sister are you"Cole said suddenly,his eye's stared at Maron coldly but Maron refused to be intimadated.She looked him square in the eye. "No I'm not"she answered honestly"I met Simms on the street he liked me and offered to take me on a tour. "Yes I already knew that I was told by his co-worker's"replied Cole. "Well tell me Maron did you enjoy your tour"asked Cole suddenly walking over to her. "Yes your home is lovely"she replied. Cole was now standing right in front of Maron and looking at her intently then out of nowhere he grabed her face and pulled her head closer to his at first Maron thought he was going to plant one on her but instead he smelled her hair. Maron jumped back "Excuse me"she yelled hitting his hand's away. "You have friend's don't you Maron"asked Cole his eye's now had a wild look about them and he began to circle her,makeing Maron feel very uneasy. "Yes I have friend's everyone does,what's wrong with you are you crazy or something?"she asked. This question seemed to bring him back to normal his eye's got hard again and he straitened his tie and smoothed back his tusseled hair"I am sorry I don't know what came over me it must be jet lag you see I just got back from London an hour ago and I'm leaveing for Amarica in a half hour so if you don't mind I will show you out". "How long will you be in Amarica for?"Maron asked putting on her glazed statement again. "A week,I'm meeting with a law firm that is going to take my case in my law suit against Capsle Corp's"he replied"why do you want to know?". "A law suit what a coinsidance I have a law suit to it's red and it's a skirt with a really nice cream blouse and a matching blazer,I can't beleave you have one two"said Maron with a giggle"Not to be mean but I can't picture you in a skirt". "Right,well time to go Maron"he replied. "Oh could I trouble you for some water I'm awful thirsty"said Maron quickly. Cole smiled fakely"Of course I'll go get you some and be right back"he said as he walked out the door. After he left Maron quickly ran over to the window and unlocked it she just got back to the same spot where she had been standing when Cole came back in with the water"here you are"he said handing her the glass she drank it quickly"Thank you but I have to be going now you have a lovely home take care now"she said running out of the room then hurrying out of the building,she made her way back to the van and her friend's. "What are we going to do he is leaveing in less then a half hour and he is going to be gone for a week and he is takeing his lab top with him.As if that we'ren't bad enough he is going to meet lawyer's when he get's back he is going to sue your mother how are we going to get the imformation that we need?"Pan said franticly wringing her hand's. "Simple we go in right now that's why I unlocked the window you can fly up to it and get in that way"Maron replied. "I can't fly for another six day's"Pan exclaimed. "Oh that's right I forgot about the shot's"said Maron slaping her forhead"Well it isint like your going to be flying around for hour's it would only take you a few second's to get up there top's,can't you just suck it up and do it?". "I guess I have no choice"replied Pan"Here suit me up Bra and give me the ear piece Maron dident need it but I might need instrution's". "Right here you go"said Bra as she latched the clasp of the gold chain,it fell lose around Pan's neck. Pan then poped the tan colered ear piece into her ear."Testing testing"said Bra's voice through the hearing device"Perfect" replied Pan"Alright let's do this". "Oh wait let me get my cell phone,we have to call the guy's and tell them to meet us here,you can do that Bra ,tell them what's going on and please make sure they park there van somewhere else and walk to our's after all two white van's parked together at this side of town look's suspiouse"Pan said as she leaned over the back seat and went into the luggage space"Where is my phone I alway's leave it back here"she thought to herself "That's strange I dont remember a blanket being back here"she thought she grabed the patchwork quilt that was piled on the floor and lifted it up,when she did she let out a cry of surprise. "What's the matter Bra and Maron asked as they rushed over to the back of the van they were amazed at what they saw,sitting there in the back were two very guilty looking little girl's. "Kayla-Chan and Chibi-Chan you are both in very big trouble what are you doing here?"Pan asked angerly "Were sorry we thought you were running away to get married and we wanted to come live with you in your house,van, so last night we borrowed your key's and hid in here so when you got married we would be your flower girl's we dident know you were really comeing to play spy game's with your friend's were sorry Pan please don't be mad at us"said Kayla,now the girl's were hestaricly crying. "Don't be mad at them Pan"said Bra trying to contain her smile. "Bra's right"Maron chimed in"After all they just wanted to live with you in your house,van is that so wrong?" Then all three of them burst into laughter,when the girl's saw that no one was mad they stoped crying to. "I have to go,Bra will you please call my mother and tell her the girl's are with me,alright you two I have to go do some stuff so be good and don't touch anything and I promise as soon as we're done I'll take you for ice cream and we'll talk more about why what you did was wrong"Pan said as she opened the door to the van and got out. Pan floated in the air she was only a few more floor's away from Cole's bedroom window and so far so good.She finally came to the window and stopped she peeked inside and just as she hoped no one was there.Pan slid the window open and quietly sliped into the room. The lab top was still out and on.Pan crossed over to it"Alright Pan first we are going to have to get into his file's and download them onto that disk I gave you"said Bra. "Alright"replied Pan as she began to madly hack away at the key's. Thank's to Bra's instruction's Pan was able to get into Cole's personal file's"Wow would you look at this it say's here that InterGlobe knowingly contaminated Lake Talbot and here is the proof we need it is a e-mail sent to an InteGlobe personal agent giveing him permision to shred document's stateing that it was alright to send in InteGlobe employe's into Capsle Corp's and infect there computer's with the vires and it also give's the name's of all the public offical's that InterGlobe is paying off wow is this ever going to be a big scandle"said Pan as she began the download. Just as the download was finishing Pan heard footstep's in the hall the computer beeped loudly as it finished it's download and then the footstep's stop for a second then started again only this time they were faster.Pan removed the disk as fast as she could and returned to main menu all the while Bra was yelling in her ear to get out of there. Pan ran over to the window but as she got out on the ledge the same searing pain ricoshade through her body"What am I going to do,I can't fly like this"Pan thought to herself franticly she could hear the footstep's at the door and faint mumbleing,she looked up and saw there was a little ledge above the window as fast as she could she climbed up on it there she was nose to the wall"wait the window" she thought then useing her foot she bent a little and kicked the window closed.just as she did she heard the door to Cole's bedroom open. "I'm telling you I heard someone in here"said a voice that Pan imideatly recognized as Cole's "Well I don't see anyone in here Dad"said another voice "I can see that Banki but just because no one is in here now doesent mean they wernt in here"Cole answered. "Look nobody could have possibly got past securety and on top of that even if they did somehow manage to how could they have gotten past us right now?"Banki asked. "Maybe there hideing"Cole replied. "I don't think anyone could hide in here"remarked Banki with a smirk as he viewed his father's pig pen as he liked to call it. "Don't be a smart alac"Cole snapped as he walked over to the window opened it and looked out onto the ledge. Pan held her breath the pain in her gut was unbarable and Pan felt like she was going to pass out"Oh please let them leave so I can get off this ledge"she thought to herself . "Hang in there Pan you can do it"Bra said encouragingly. "Well dad do you see any boggiemen out there on the ledge"said Banki with a laugh. "No,but I see an idiot in my room"Cole replied sarcasticly"Let's go I have a plane to catch". Pan heard shuffleing about and then the door open and close"Bra I'm going to take the camera off and hold it in front of the window tell me if the cost is clear". "Your going back in but that's crazy how will you get out again,Trunk's and the guy's are on there way can't you wait for one of them to come get you?"Bra asked. "I'll cross that bridge when I come to it but if I don't get off this ledge now I'm going to faint!"Pan replied ripping the chain from her neck she then dangeled the charm in front of the window. "The coast is clear"Bra said. Pan crawled back down onto the lower ledge and opened the window all around her blackness was closeing in as she was about to crawl back into the window she droped the camera oh great"Bra I droped your camera"she said turning onto her knee's and made her way back through the window. I'm in Pan said as she closed the window she was about to turn around when she felt a powerful blow to the back of her head Pan fell to her knee's she turned her head slightly to see the man who hit her.He was strikingly simular to Cole the only real difference between them was this man's hair was jet black and Cole's was a stealy grey. "I guess you were right dad someone was in here,I'll call securety"Banki said. When he said that Pan gathered every once of strenth she had she couldent let herself be captured and arrested like a crimanl when the only crook here was Cole and posible his son. Pan's attack was swift she jumped up and rushed Banki her fist's flew like lightning he blocked a few but the majority of them she was able to land even in her weakend condition.She felt pain as Banki landed a swift punch right in her gut Pan tried to shake it off but it severly hurt her already floundering stomac.Pan sucsesfully delivered a serise of punche's and spin kick's and finally she landed a sickening blow to his nose a digusting crunch was heard and Banki fell to the ground,his nose gushing blood. Pan fell to her knee's exasted.As she sat there she heard foot step's from behind she jumped up and tried to put her gaurd up again but she was to weak so she just stood there defensless.she turned to see Cole standing there stareing at her"I have waited so long for this moment"he said as he crossed over to her he grabed her face in his hand's and pulled her head close and smelled her hair"Yes it is you I wasent sure before but now there is no doubt.You look,smell and fight like her that was your friend that came before I could smell you faintly on her and I knew it would not be long before you came back to me"Cole whispered excitedly. "You decendent of Ox King not Chi-Chi but decendant of Chi-chi have returned and in doing so you will return honer to the clan of Gladen and finally Gladen will claim it's rightful place on the throne of Fire Mountain". Pan could hardley beleave her ear's this man was Kobi and she had just delivered herself to him on a silver platter"Get up"he yelled kicking his son"were going to take my private jet back to fire mountain". Cole had a vice like grip on Pan and he was not letting go and she was far to weak to struggle. "Come we must leave now"he said he walked her over to the door when all of the sudden through the window came Altor"Let her go Kobi"he said as he stepped over the body of Banki. "Never she is righfully the property of Gladen and I will not let us be shamed again". "She belong's to no one let her go no one can take away the shame of your clan"Altor replied. "We shall see"Kobi replied running at Altor and throwing a punch that Altor easly blocked then altor attacked with a powerful kick that sent Kobi reeling then Kobi regrouped and came at Altor kicking and punching but no matter how fast he was Altor was faster and in mere second's Kobi was put to the ground with an upper cut to his chin. Then from down the hall the sound of securety gaurd's echoed through the corridoor. "Come princess"Altor said picking Pan up and carrieing her to the window. "Don't call me princess"Pan mumbled as he jumped out the window and ran down the side of the building. All the while Pan could hear Kobi screaming after them"You can't protect her forever I will have my vengance do you hear me Altor I will have my revenge!". "Where are we going?" Pan asked "Somewhere safe for as we speak the securety gaurd's are siezing your friend's in the van.I tried to fight them but I could not help both them and you". "We have to help them" Pan said struggleing a little. "You are in no condition to fight and getting yourself captuered will serve no one". "But the twin's"Pan exclaimed. "They are safe while you were in there downloading your mother came to the van and claimed them she was not to happy with you takeing them without telling her and I am angry that you took them at all". "I dident take them they stowed away in the back of the house,van"Pan replied grogly. "What about Trunk's and the other's?"Pan asked "They havent came yet and we cannot wait for them for right now we have to get you to a safe place and then we will figer out our next move".
