"Oh Max"

CHAPTER 1

“Freeze!” A voice yelled out. Max instantly stopped as he felt a gun to the back of his head.

“Ok, there seems to be a misunderstanding…” Max quickly turned around and tried grabbing the gun. He lost balance and landed on top of the person holding it. He froze.

“Get off of me will ya?”

Max hurried off and fixed his suit. “Who are you?” he asked.

“I’m agent 11.” Answered the young girl with long brown hair pulled back in a ponytail.

“Oh. Hello. I’m Max, but most people--” he was cut off mid sentence when they suddenly heard gunshots. Max ducked and headed for an opening. He grabbed the fire extinguisher.

“What the hell are you gonna do with that?” Agent 11 asked.

“I’m going to create a diversion! You know how they do it on old--” Max was cut off once again by the sound of gunshots, closer this time. “I gotta stop talking so much” Max said as he steadied himself. “Ok turn it on!” he yelled and water blasted from the hose knocking down whoever was shooting at them. A few moments later, they heard a moan come from the person Max sprayed with water. They rushed over, Agent 11 stepped in front of Max, and they saw……yep, the chief.

“Ohhh he is not gonna like me for that when he regains consciousness…”

Agent 11 gave him Max funny look.

The next morning, Max rushed out the door. He was so late for his meeting…it was at that time he realized it was a bad day to be late, seeing as how he knocked the chief out yesterday. Max shook it off as he arrived to the conference room. “Hey gang, sorry I’m a bit late.”

Everyone yawned. Max’s meetings weren’t the most exciting things to happen around the place, they were actually quite boring. Max glanced around the table and saw the usual people, except the new face he saw briefly yesterday. After the encounter with the chief, Agent 11 seemed to have disappeared rather quickly. He didn’t even get a chance to fully introduce himself, which was something Max always did.

“Ok! Let’s get started. Does anyone have any idea of what happened here yesterday?” the chief asked.

No one answered. “Chief, I believe this was done by the work of KAOS. We have reason to believe they are responsible for millions of dollars in stolen radioactive material. Which begs the question….who would need so much radioactive material?” The room was silent. Max nodded and continued, “I recently tracked down the head of the operation, Mr. Ladislas Krstic who is said to be in Russia currently.”

“Good, now all we have to do is find him! Now, to our next problem. As of now, KAOS has hacked into our main agent headquarters and learned the identities of all of our field agents outside of this country. Now, fortunately Agent 11 here has been sent over to join us.” the chief said.

Max looked over at Agent 11. He smiled to himself at the thought of being an agent, and not just agent, but being Agent 11’s partner!

“But how are we going to find him with only one agent?” Agent 23 asked.

“We can’t. Which is why we need brand new agent to join Control. Agent 86.” the chief said.

Max looked around, “Who’s that?”

The chief sighed and turned to Max. “It’s you.”

Max’s face lit up. He couldn’t believe it! Everyone was cheering and clapping their hands. “Chief, may I see………The Cone of Silence please?” he got up and went to the corner. He took a deep breath and pushed the button. “Ohh I’m so happy!! THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIIIIIIFE!” Max calmly sat back down in his chair. Everyone in the room was staring at him. “What.” he said.

“Uhm, you, uh, didn’t push the button down hard enough.” Lloyd said.

“So you guys heard what I said just now?” Everyone nodded. “Right. Well, good thing I didn’t say everything I was thinking.” Max looked around the room and caught Agent 11’s eyes. He couldn’t help but smile. This really was the best day of his life. He was finally an agent, and his partner seemed extremely awesome and yes there were certain things about her that Max was attracted to…ok pretty much everything about her.

Agent 11 stood up. “Chief, may I say something a minute here? And with all due respect, no offense to anyone--”

Max cut her off. “Please 11, we are all like a family here. If you have something on your mind, go for it! Tell the family.”

“Max has no experience and I’m not sure I feel confident about us being partners.” 11 said.

Max’s eyes widened. “Wow, isn’t that just a slap in the face…by my own family!”

“Max shut up.” the chief said. “Sorry 11, Max is all we got.”

Agent 11 rolled her eyes and Max tried to smile at her.

After a few hours, they were on the plane to Russia. Agent 11 and Max sat quietly next to each other. 11 was reading a magazine and Max was tapping his fingers on his arm rests. “So.” Max spoke up. “Just a question out of curiosity. I can’t seem to understand why you said I have no ‘experience’. I know I look much younger than my actual age, but that does not mean I don’t have any experience. And how old are you anyways? How do I know you even have any experience.”

Agent 11 scoffed and set her magazine down. “Yes, I may only be 20, but I have been an agent since I was 15, that’s 5 years longer than you.” She looked over at Max who looked down at the floor. “But then again I don’t have near the knowledge of life that you do.” Max gave a small smile.

“So how are we doing this, are we portraying husband and wife or what?” Max asked.

11 laughed. “Well, I’m not sure what else you had in mind. We’ll just say that I like my men older.” she glanced over at Max who was already looking at her. She quickly turned away.

“Well, I am exactly half your age, so that would work.” Max laughed.

There was silence again. Max could definitely tell they had a connection. But he also knew Agent 11 was tough and probably would try to hold back any sort of feelings she had...if she had them.

“Have you ever had sex in an airplane before?” Max asked.

...be be continued. :D
