"You know that I'm not one to repeat my words, Mason." Mom dictated.
"Yes ma'am," he muttered
"B..but Mom, these kinds of missions really aren't the best for us," I stammer out.
"Well, the mission has already been assigned. I already had someone sign you and the team up for the high school. So I suggest you prepare for your first day of school, which is the day after tomorrow." She replies, turning around.
"Are you serious?" I questioned.
She turned around, "I've never been more serious," she then gestures to a car pulling up near us, "that is your ride, it will be dropping you guys off at my house. "She turned around again, heading to a car, the driver was already out, opening the door for my mother.
"Where are you going?" I ask softly.
She sighs, "I need to question that mob boss you guys brought in, I'll be home late." She got in the car, the driver closed the door for her and got in the driver's seat then drove off.
"Does this mean that I have to buy notebooks?" Mason inquired.
----
When the car stopped in front of the house, I quickly got out.
"Sapphire. Are you alright," Aurora asks me, grabbing my shoulder.
"Just fine," I replied, "I'm just gonna head to bed, it's late." I smile at her.
Opening the front door with my key, leaving it open for the rest. I headed straight to my room.
Since Aurora, Camille, and Mason were on the team, my mom decided that they could have rooms here. Whenever we came from a mission late, we'd sleep at my house.
When I got there, I immediately jumped on my king-sized bed and covered my face with a pillow.
Seriously. A mission. In a high school nonetheless.
I never thought of doing a mission at a school. That just wasn't my thing. I loved doing missions in different countries and cities. That way, I could explore the world.
And what the hell are we supposed to protect them from. Their teenage problems?
At least we have a day to prepare ourselves.

"Rise and shine you peasants!" Aurora yelled. I immediately woke up. Not thinking at all, I flipped onto my back, landing on the floor.
"Ugh, that's going to leave a bruise." I said, rubbing my back.
The door to my room opened, and Aurora walked in, holding a megaphone. She was dressed in a short-sleeved black button up shirt with high waisted jeans. Her hair neatly done in french braids.
"Come on Sapphire, you have about 2 hours until we need to leave to go shopping." She walked over to me, helping me up.
Two hours?
Looking at the clock, it was 5am.
"Why the hell would you wake me up at this time! Did you even get any sleep?" I looked at her like she was crazy.
"I have my reasons, and yes I did sleep." She replied, heading out of the room and heading to the one across mine, Camille's room.
I groaned. Looking down at my clothes, seems that I forgot to change out of them last night.
I entered the bathroom, doing all that was necessary. Then before stepping in the shower. I had to make sure that the water wasn't too cold or to hot for me.
A few minutes later, I stepped out of the bathroom, with a towel tightly wrapped around my body. I didn't wash my hair today, thinking it was better to do it later tonight.
Going through my closet for an outfit for the day, I heard some shouting coming from outside my room. Then Aurora rushed in, and went behind me.
"Uh, what's going on," I asked, curiously
Before she was able to answer, Camille walked in, wearing a lilo and stitch onesie. She seemed angry. Looking down at her hand, I saw that she had her pocket-knife.
"Who in the hell wakes up at 5am!" she yelled out.
"Camille, put the knife down," I sighed.
"No! I was sleeping," she then pointed to Aurora, "and she ruined it!" she exclaimed.
"Well, Lyla said we needed to wake up at 5," Aurora huffed out.
Camille groaned, walking out of the room.
"So, did you wake Mason up yet?" I asked her.
She shook her head, "If my megaphone barely woke Camille up, it definitely did not wake him up. Anyways, you should get ready quick and head to the dining room. Lyla needs to go over the mission with us, then we need to go shopping for school supplies." She walked out of the room, closing the door behind her.
Looking back to my closet, deciding to go with a short sleeved striped shirt with black ripped jeans and some converse.
I quickly got dressed and put my hair up in a messy bun. Looking at the mirror, I saw a light bruise on my cheek. I should put makeup on that.
Heading downstairs, I caught a glimpse of Aurora trying to push Mason off his bed.
Laughing to myself, I went in to the dining room. My mom wasn't here yet, but Belle and Brielle were.
Belle looked at me and rushed to me, pulling me into a tight hug.
"It's nice to see you too, Belle," I smile, hugging her back.
"How was Puerto Rico?" She asked, pulling away from the hug.
"It was..interesting," I spoke, "How was Italy?"
"We'll talk about-", she was cut off by a bowl that shattered on the ground.
Belle and I looked at the culprit, Brielle, who let out an 'oops'.
Food was spattered on the ground, and so was broken pieces of the bowl.
"Seriously Brie, you're supposed to eat the food, not drop it on the ground," Belle groaned.
I heard steps behind me. Turning around, I saw Camille. She didn't look angry anymore. Thank god for that, I can't handle an angry Camille in the morning. Her hair was in her normal waves, she was dressed in a dark green oversized sweater with navy blue jeans. She didn't have any shoes on, just her lilo and stitch socks.
"Be careful," I pointed to the pieces of the shattered bowl on the ground, "Brielle dropped her bowl on the floor,"
She nodded, looking down at her feet, "I should go put some shoes on then." She then went upstairs.
Looking at Belle who was grabbing a broom to clean up the mess her sister just made. "Here," I started, grabbing another broom, "I'll help you clean up."
"Thanks," she replied, with a grateful smile.
For the next couple of minutes, Belle and I cleaned up the mess.
After we were done, Mason walked in. With crazy bed hair might I add, and he looked really tired.
"Damn, what happened to you?" Belle looked at him with a questioned look.
"I got bored last night, and decided to see if there were any interesting shows to watch on TV. And they were showing the Spongebob Movie and I really wanted to watch it." He replied, his lips curving into a small pout.
"What time did you go to sleep?" I asked him, putting the brooms away.
"Around three." He replied.
My eyes widened, "You only got two hours of sleep?!" I exclaimed.
"They were rerunning it two times," He whined.
"It doesn't mean you have to watch it again, you could've just recorded it," Belle huffed out.
"I did," Mason's small pout turned into a smile.
I rolled my eyes at him. He's been obsessed with watching Spongebob. But honestly I don't blame him, it's a good show to watch.
"Hey Belle, would you mind making me some coffee?" Mason asked her with a pleading look in his eyes.
She waved her hand at him, "I'll have a cup ready for you, go upstairs and get ready for the day."
"You're the best," Mason told her, then went on upstairs to get ready.
