Fanon:Can't Let You Get Him: Chapter 4-Agent Delia

I had a weird dream last night.

I was in school, but it was more like a secret lair than a school. I was in a random bush in the school/secret lair. And instead of my normal outfit, I was in all black gear. Then I heard a beeping noise. Looking down to my right, I saw my walky-talky. I then heard Gina's voice come out of the walky-talky.

"Agent Delia," she asked. "Are you ready for your first mission?"

I gulped. Mission? Agent Delia? What the heck?

"I guess..." I answered. "What are the details?"

"There is a girl who is a threat to the overall objective of all our missions. This girl can be found hanging around with Nate." Gina explained.

"Okay, go on," I told her.

"We will be able to communicate, but we cannot be seen together, as no one would like that," Gina continued.

"Is there anything else?" I said.

"Yes. You must try to make sure this girl isn't a problem to our main objective. That is your mission. And by the way, her name is D-"

And that's when I woke up. Right in the middle of Gina explaining that "mission."

What a weird dream! I thought. I should get ready.

I got ready and headed off to school, although that dream I had stayed in my head. Why would I have a dream like that? So odd...

''Wow, I can't get this dream off my mind! I still haven't forgotten it and it's time to meet Gina in the library! Don't I normally forget my dreams by now?'' I thought. Shaking my head, I went to see Gina at the library.

The first thing we studied was science, then math, then english, and finally...social studies. Then, I realized something.

You see, we were studying past civilizations and mythology. Gina and I were going over that chapter in our textbooks, and then I read a few sentences in there that made me wonder something.

''In the past, some people thought that when you sleep, you got transported to another world, and that was where your dreams happened. They believed that dreams were trying to tell you something.''

Those sentences told me something. I learned something entirely new about dreams.

So, maybe that "Secret Agent" dream was trying to tell me something! I thought. But what?

"Earth to Delia!" Gina exclaimed, snapping her fingers in front of my face.

"Sorry!" I told her. "It's just that I had some weird dream and I was thinking about that..."

"Oh?" Gina said. "What was it about?"

I explained the whole secret agent thing and how I realized that it may have been trying to tell me something.

"Hmmmmm..." Gina mumbled when I finished.

"What?" I asked.

"What were you thinking about when you fell asleep?" Gina asked me.

"I was thinking about what I was going to do tommorow," I answered. "Oh and I was thinking about this book I read about ninjas and stuff."

"Well, maybe your subconcious was thinking about the deal we made and that ninja book. Your dreams must have combined the two," Gina replied.

"Maybe you're right," I said.

I looked at the clock on the wall, which read 4:03 PM.

"I gotta go," Gina told me. "I have a class at 4:30."

"Okay! See you tommorow!" I said.

Even after Gina walked out of the library, I just stayed at the table we were sitting at, reading those sentences from the social studies textbook over and over again. What Gina said about the dream could be true, but I couldn't help but feel like it was trying to tell me something. I sat at the library table, concentrating on my dream. What could it be trying to tell me?

As I packed up and left P.S. 38, I kept thinking.

I then remembered something. At lunch, Nate was saying hi to a lot of random girls again, and those girls looked pretty annoyed. I remembered how mad I felt and how nervous I felt, knowing that one of those girls could fall for Nate. If a dream needed to tell me anything, It'd be that I'd have to take things a lot more seriously.

Seriously. That was it! With everything so dramatic, my dream was probably saying "Hey Delia, you need to take things seriously. What'll happen if Nate happens to be with someone else? You must try hard to achieve results."

I thought about it for the rest of the day. Maybe I did have to take things more seriously. Maybe I did have to put more effort in this plan. Maybe I did have to become Agent Delia.
