Today's events

After the meeting with Alisa, Alex and Oliver continued their patrol, but nothing else surprising happened. Once they were finished with the patrol Oliver and Alex parted ways and headed home. 

...

Alex after returning home, headed straight to his dad's study. The moment he entered Alex saw that his dad was talking on the phone. When Carlo spotted Alex he ended the call immediately.

"Alex, report everything regarding today's events."

"Sir, Yes, Sir!" Alex saluted and recounted today's events. Starting from his meeting with Oliver to his patrol with the other party.

When Carlo heard Alex's report he was silent for a moment. It seems that even as a student there were many other factors that his son had to deal with, there were of course those bullies from that infamous school nicknamed the garbage dump.

Still, what worried him, even more, was the so-called Shadow Mercenaries. This James Bourne codenamed Oliver wanted to meet him, yet Carlo knew nothing of these so-called Shadow Mercenaries. If Carlo meets Oliver right now without any information in regards to Oliver and his organization he won't be able to feel at ease.

Carlo contacted Luke the best investigator they had in the squad. Once Carlo sent a message to Luke telling him to find out everything in regards to the Shadow Mercenaries, Luke called back almost instantaneously.

"Boss, is it true? Are you really trying to investigate the Shadow Mercenaries?"

Carlo was surprised to receive a call from Luke who likes to change locations and phone numbers every five hours. Even more surprising was that Luke's voice actually had a trace of fear as he spoke.

Alex was still standing there waiting for his dad's next instructions. Carlo signaled him to leave the room, Alex did not question the order so he saluted and left the room.

"Yes, it's true... Why is there a problem?"

"Boss, how did you even find out about the shadow mercenaries? I'm sure I never reported anything to you in regards to them."

When Carlo heard that Luke didn't report to him in regards to the information of the Shadow Mercenaries, that could only mean one thing this organization was dangerous.

"A classmate of Alex is supposed to be from the Shadow Mercenaries, and it seems like he wants to meet me."

"Boss, what was the name of Alex's classmate?"

"He was called James Bourne." Carlo could hear Luke stumbling on the other side of the line.

"Boss did you just say, James Bourne?!"

If the fear in his voice wasn't evident a while ago the moment Carlo said the name James Bourne Luke's voice was now slightly trembling with a higher pitch.

"Do you know him?"

Carlo was now taking this seriously. At first, he thought Alex's classmate was a tad delusional and it was just a coincidence that he was able to stop Alex from drawing his gun, but hearing Luke's fearful voice made him think otherwise.

"Boss that person is one of the most successful agents in the Shadow Mercenaries. James Bourne is just a codename no one knows his true name. He like Alex is a young genius of the battlefield."

"Ok so he's like Alex, but what's making you so scared?"

Carlo was confused, so what if he was like Alex? Does that warrant such fear?

"Boss you don't know since we've always been by Alex's side, but if you face him as an enemy... Then you could only hope you die a quick death, cause that's the best outcome when facing someone like Alex. Still, the reason I'm afraid is not because of that, it's because someone with the same abilities as Alex plus an organization on the same level or above ours backing him, is a really fearsome opponent."

Carlo calmed himself and tried to regulate his breathing.

"Okay then send me all the information regarding the Shadow Mercenaries. I will see what I can do, but based on what Alex said he and that guy had formed a pact of brotherhood with him."

"That's our Alex for you, even the ever-elusive James Bourne wants to be his friend. He might have decided that they're on the same level that's why he initiated the pact of brotherhood."

Luke was a bit excited about the new information he got about James Bourne.

...

In a room full of military merchandise and a bunch of dumbbells scattered around, a boy was resting under his bed. The reason why he was under his bed was because he believed that when an enemy attacked he would think that he was dead after attacking the decoy dummy sleeping in his bed. This was Oliver, he was recording the events of the day in his personal recorder.

"Today I have formed a pact of brotherhood with a new comrade called Alex. He is someone with great potential, I wish to learn more from him. He even promised to introduce me to his father. I hope his father could teach me a thing or two about survival training. While saving a damsel in distress there was a minor scuffle against some delinquents who had nicknamed me the bloody demon. This might lead to bigger things, but as long as I persist in the justice in my heart then it doesn't matter."

Oliver had a smile on his face as he spoke into his recorder as he was excited since many cool things happened today. 

Unbeknownst to him, he was being gravely misunderstood by Alex and his father. Coincidentally the name of his made-up organization turned out to be real, even the fake name he made turned out to be real as well, it was even related to the organization that he made up. Turns out all of his delusions were real the only thing not real was he himself wasn't James Bourne.

He who was just a little more above average high school student was being feared by two of the greatest mercenaries that ever walked the battlefield. If he knew what kind of misunderstandings were ensuing no one knows if Oliver would've been excited or scared.
