There are no secrets that time does not reveal.

R.O.S.S. Headquarters, Belle City, 9:52a.m

R.O.S.S. Headquarters was now on a full lockdown. There was a sea of nosey reporters crowded in the lobby. Denella knew that he had to go down to the lobby and chase the reporters away.

Celcus had only said something about the agent who worked for R.O.S.S. Headquarters, but he never mentioned anything about what kind of agent.

Denella would have to lie to the reporters and tell them that she had no idea how the man in the helicopter knew her and how she is just a sales agent working for the company R.O.S.S. It wouldn't be that hard. Being a secret agent required a lot of lying, and that was something Denella hated very much. She lied to many people before because of her job and that included her parents. Her parents. What would she do about them? Then there was the whole Celcus thing.

Denella cleared her mind and focused on what the main problem was right now. Hesitantly, she rode the elevator down to the main floor. She would be asked the stupidest questions and be forced to answer them, even though she knew she had a right to stay quiet.

It would of been much easier to stay upstairs and let John do all the talking, but she remembered how he wasn't there anymore. He was with his mother because she was sick. It was quite odd for him to be gone at a time like this. Denella didn't even know that John's mom wasn't feeling too well until Brandon told her about it because John didn't mention anything to her before he left.

Denella got out of the elevator and was swarmed and swallowed up by the reporters. The first to get to her was Kendra, the women in lavender. She held up the microphone close to Denella's mouth as she motioned her cameramen to focus their cameras on Denella.

"Hi, I'm Kendra Witherfield. Do you work here?" The women in lavender asked.

Denella had to drown the voices of the other reporters so she could hear the question. "Yes, I do work here."

"So, the word is that you're a secret agent. Is that true."

"No, it's not true." Denella lied, making sure she looked directly into Kendra's eyes. "I'm just a sales agent."

"Oh, just a sales agent. Is your boss around here somewhere?" Kendra questioned as she looked around.

"No, he's out of town for a few days. He'll be back soon."
