The Junior Spy Division

Prologue

Victoria falls, Zimbabwe.

Falling.

          That was the only thought in Connor’s mind while he tumbled of the edge of Victoria Falls.  That was the only thing he was doing. Falling. No screaming, no yelling. Just falling.  Connor didn’t know why he was silent. All he knew was that he was going to hit the water very soon, and very hard.

          All of a sudden he felt a pair of arms around him.  DRAKE!  

          Drake was his partner and best friend in the Junior Spy Division. Their main head quarters are in Arvada, Colorado. They’ve been to about twenty different places scattered around the world, like the Bahamas, Beijing, the Great Pyramids, and even the top of Mount Everest. But Victoria Falls was his least favorite place of all. Why? He was dropped in the rapids leading to one of the world’s greatest waterfalls by his arch enemy, Crazy James.

           “What took you so long?” Connor yelled over the wind and thunderous sound of the crashing water.

          “I wanted to make a more dramatic entrance!” he yelled in his southern accent while pulling the string to open his parachute.

          “Well never do that again!” he said in anguish.

          “Don’t think that’s guna’ happen!” he said chuckling.

          When Drake landed them expertly, Connor felt furious.  Not only Drake had joked around after Connor’s near death experience, but Crazy James had beaten him once again.
