Get Smart *Act 1*A Story by TearflowIt all started when their family went missing A boy and his sister got caught between a crossfire of well known family and a shady organization that thirst for money.Get smart.. *Wednesday *3:45 PM *June 23,20XX [Act 1] *Tap,tap,tap* The man with a ruggy stubble beard trails on the ceramic tiled floor. The boy opened his eyes and sighed, his brown eyes reflects the round fluorescent light hanging overhead. It's brightness somehow stings, 'I bet it's easy to find fallen stuff around here with this light' He thought. He scratched his forehead wiping away his sweat and faced the stubbled man who in turn stopped walking and stared back. "So how do you explain this?" said the man putting his hands on the table. The boy looked at the table, there are documents with his name on it. Apparently this boy stole a women's wallet at the school this afternoon. The papers carries a detailed report of the culprit's name,age,gender,address, etc and statements used to ensure his capture and guilt. Zack Fisher, he thought how his last name sucked as this causes a wide amount of bullying. As they say how did this fish got into this school, it's been this way since I stayed at this place's public school. 'If only they didn't disappear all of a sudden' he thought. "Speak!" said the stubbled man, this brought back Zack to reality as he slowly felt the sinking feeling of being accused with something he didn't even do. It annoyed him of course but he just released it in a form of sighed. The brown striped cubical discussion room resonated their voices. "How many times would I have to say I didn't do it" Zack replied "Oh come on! you're the only person at that time, who could've done it?!" snapped the man losing his temper. "Well.." Zack hanged his head, thinking 'how Am I supposed to get out of here?' "Look" said the man "If you admit that you stole the lady's wallet I'll just let you out with a warning how about that?" said the man. "Hmm..." Zack thought. "Look boy I've got a lot of important work to do than to be a disciplinary parent." remarked the man He smiled "Come on now, I don't care if you didn't do it or you did but the girl is quite a person that you messed with" said the man his tone begging like 'I don't really want trouble so please just agree with me' Zack smiled "Okay but on one condition" he replied The man frowned. "I want to see the lady I offended so I can apologize." The man looked dumbfounded he's face clearly saying 'really bruh?' after a minute he just shrugged his shoulders in defeat. *Tap,tap,tap* The man walked towards the door and called for someone. "Uh.. Mam? please come here the suspect seems to want to talk to you" said the stubbled man "Why!!" A snap came outside, The stubbled man grimaced. "Well the man wanted to apologize..." said the man "His apology means nothing!! I don't want to see this thief's face!!" she shouted. The brown wooden doors bolted open as another person joined the confined cube space. A girl with an aura of command, her stance and proud face radiating royalty. Pristine white dress and blond curly tied hair increases here assets that are already beyond average. "All I want is for him to pay his crime and return my wallet!" she added as she looked at him, the boy sitting on the chair. "Hey" said Zack, the girl raised an eyebrow at him either for his sheer stupidity or ignorance about his situation But whatever it is, he'll still pay. "Well... the boy lost the said wallet so he doesn't have it anymore." said the man The lady contorted in anger "He what?!" her blond ponytailed hair swayed as she spun towards the stubbled man. "Don't worry" a voice came as the door opened *Tap,tap,tap* A man with a side brushed brown hair came, his left hand on his pocket, his sweatshirt swaying side by side while he enters as if time has stopped like a really bad fantasy novel scene. Only to be interrupted by the lady's voice "Oh john!" She run up to him and hugged him an out of place display of affection their exchanged was quickly absorbed by the grumpy brown interior walls of the room, then John said "Don't worry I'll make this man produce the wallet he hid" he said in a smug voice. "Really? said the girl" she held her hand on her chest like a princess expecting a kiss. The stubbled man clearly confused at this exchange he just gave the sitting boy a tired look. But The said sitting boy grinned like he have a plan, like he know something, like something that an inexperience man wouldn't notice. Since the difference is clear from black to white if one only observed carefully without losing focus, so he smiled He placed his left elbow on the table and rested his chin on his hand. making him look like a cheesy evil villain with his plan going as he wanted. "Hey punk! You better give it back" Said John in a threatening tone. "I guess I have no choice then" Zack stood up and grabbed the documents lying on the table and tossed them towards John's face. *tak,tak,tak* John flail around as he shove away the flying paper and folders at him, fortunately none of them gave him a paper cut. "Stop that! you're hurting him!" Said the girl as she rushed towards John. "are you okay dear" she asked then suddenly Gasped. "Yeah I'm okay" replied John. He turned around his eyes full of rage to the boy who stood near the table grinning. "Why you-" Just as John is about to pounce at Him the stubble man blocked him, "Enough" he said in a commanding voice. "What?" replied John clearly confused. "How could you?" said the girl with a weak voice. The three of them stared at her, almost at the verge of tears she held in her hands the lost wallet. John widened his eyes in shock causing Zack's smile to broader like a joker. "How can you explain this John!" snapped the girl, apparently her love towards the man seems lost at this point. "Uhh- I..-" John fumbled as he scratch his head, looking for answers on the floor. "I'll explain to you what happened" Said Zack. all of them dumbfounded at his remark, the stubbled man replied "Go on" "First the facts" said zack as he picks up the fallen paper on the floor and arranging them in order. "According to this report the girl Sophia lost her wallet around 12:30 P.M which is just after lunch, she said that she doesn't remember how she lost it but she last placed it on the classroom under her desk then she was suddenly invited by her boyfriend John." "Everyone went outside to have lunch leaving a single man inside the classroom which unfortunately became the culprit just because he's the one left inside the classroom, me" Zack sighed. "Why are you left alone then?" Asked Sophia. "Various reasons but rest assured it's not to steal your wallet" like Zack can tell them that he doesn't have any money to afford lunch. "Well isn't that the only viable conclusion? since who could've stole it?" said the stubbled man. "Maybe but only if you found the evidence with me" Said Zack as he finish picking up the paper scattered around the floor. "Then how did my wallet ended up with John?" Said the girl named Sophia. "Second the theory, Simple he stole it" remarked Zack a matter a factly. "Just as Sophia we're about to go John distracted her and took this chance to snag her wallet, of course Sophia being a girl in love somehow forgot that her wallet under her desk just got stolen "What nonsense are you spouting! why would I steal her wallet?!" snarled John. "Honestly I don't know" Said Zack "Heh! I knew it also if I'm the one who stole it why would I still have it?" said John Zack put his hand on his face, his face full of conflicting emotions. "And that's your wrong move, if you just threw that away instead of trying to become a hero" replied Zack "A hero?" asked Sophia her eyes somehow gleaming "Third conclusion, Apparently your genius boyfriend plans to place your wallet inside of my clothes, then call me out of it thus making him look like a hero and me a bad guy" John hanged his head then spoke "I might as well say the same thing! I felt that you threw me a hard object as you toss those papers at me!" "Really now still denying?" said Zack in a tired voice "Of course! why would I admit with something I haven't done" he retorted. "Okay, Sir would you please check both of his pockets?" said Zack. The man tilted his head "Why?" he asked "If I'm not mistaken the final piece of evidence will be in there" replied Zack as he sat on the chair again looking tired. "Heh! what do you mean evidence! there's nothing here look-" John reached into his pockets the froze "Hmm? what's wrong John?" said Sophia looking scared "John please show your hands to me" said the man. John grudgingly showed his hands revealing an out of place golden coin with face on both sides. "That's my-" Sophia spoke but didn't continue instead she turned her head around. "Sophia is a girl of a royal family so she brought their crest representing their family and as you can see it fell right out of her wallet when John tucked it inside his pocket." Said Zack as he shuffles the paper then placed them on the table. "Wait-" Said John apparently he got cut by a man in a butler uniform that seemed to appear out of nowhere. "Stop sir, please you made her majesty cry" said the old man as he produce a napkin out of thin air Shocked John didn't spoke a word as well as the other two men. White curly hair, a skin ridden by ages but perfectly covered by a black coat and pants. Shining black shoes and intimidating square rimmed glass a butler in normal terms. "Oh now I know what you mean" said Zack without looking away as the girl and the old man walks away *Tap,tap,tap* Silence reign in the room once again. "So now that I'm innocent can I go home? said Zack breaking the silence in the cubical room. "Y-yeah, I guess" said the man John just held his head with both hands regretting what he did "Then good day sir!" said Zack as he waves his hand "I was shocked that you knew about her and the coin" said the man "That's the funny part I didn't know it, I'm just lucky about the coin then just made it up a theory of her being a royal girl but it turned out well" said Zack his footsteps disappearing each second The man frowned and shook his head "People could make use of talent like yours" said the man *Tap,tap,tap* "Well Sir?" asked John "Get the hell outta my sight, nothing happened here" Said the man "Yes sir!!" Replied John almost crying. *Tap,tap,tap* "Haahh... I'm not a disciplinary parent damn it" The man grumbled. Silence took over the room once more © 2016 TearflowAuthor's Note
