Stealth... Suspense... Danger...

The secret agents of the sacred lift are back to defend the world after a short break... or perhaps someone was too lazy to record down their heroic efforts to save the Earth. Yes, these people are the unsung heroes that risk life and limb solely for the sake of protecting the innocent. In fact, today's story is one worthy of being recorded in history, considering the things our agents have put on the line, and deftly showed wit, stealth and speed in this very episode.

Before I tell you about today, I have to confess that the agents have been caught and tortured before... IF you were wondering why the recent episodes haven't been uploaded, it's because the agent's hands are too pain and bruised to even type... Yes, they were tortured that badly. The agents were ambushed on all sides, with no way out, they chose peace instead of endangering innocent lives and decided to surrender to the evil villain who tortured them =D. They were humiliated, injured, decapitated ( ok maybe not THAT bad). But you get the idea.

Of course, our brave agents have made a comeback that everyone* has been awaiting for... to help protect the future of the Earth!

Once again, our mission was perilous, fraught with untold danger. Every step could be our last, any mistake could be fatal but the courage in our hearts overcame that fear. Our mind was focused, we were in tip-top condition after a rest. In fact, the agents were also using their rest period to improve themselves by taking academic exams ( what, you think agent training was always practical and no theory?)

Let me give you an example of a question: (Try it out and see if you're an agent! The answer is at the bottom.)

1. What do you do when you see an enemy that is nearby but has NOT detected you:

1) You charge and punch his/her face till it melts on the ground.
2) Take a gun attached with a silencer and take him out quickly.
3) Persuade him/ her to let you through.

2. What will you do if you see an enemy and he/she has DETECTED and is CONFRONTING you. ( This question will show which agent you are like)

1) You smile and act retarded in order to escape.
2) You just stand there stunned, hoping the enemy will think you are harmless.
3) You pee on your pants (Guess who!)

Alright let's get back to business.

It was after our lesson of literature, a subject that is used by agents to detect lies, sarcasm and irony. Our mission was to safely get to the seventh level WITHOUT getting caught, the enemy seems to be getting smarter ( or probably luckier) nowadays. We rushed to the second floor, avoiding all the cameras planted to detect enemy intrusion. With speed, skill, technique, we used various stunts to avoid the cameras. Usually we would hack into the security system and disable all the cameras but time was running out... Not to mention that it is always more fun and cool to do all these stunts. We ARE supposed to be cool agents ya know ;).

The second floor was empty, anyone could tell ( ok not ANYONE, but trained agents are keen in the eye and sharp in the mind) that it was a trap set for us. After sweeping the area and making sure no surprise attacks were sprung on us, Si Cheng deftly pushed the cold metallic button of the lift.

Ding!

The lifts doors slowly opened, revealing a gigantic bouncer twice (or THRICE) the size of all three agents put together. We were in grave peril now. Fortunately the bouncer wasn't very bright at all. Si Cheng and I swiftly blended in with the crowded, pretending to be deep in discussion and walking along the corridor. Bronson... well... let's just say he's called Pee Boy for a reason. Once the humongous bouncer blundered past our two agents equipped with lithe and well built frames, we instantly did a 180 degree turn and rushed into the lift, with the bouncer barely a metre away from us. Of course, we did it so suddenly, so skilfully that it would have been tough to even know that we were gone. The lift door slowly closed, and the agents heaved a sigh of relief. Mission successful again!

This has been a great comeback for the agents, it shows that no matter what has happened, they have not become rusty in every area. Clear evidence has revealed that the agents have recovered from their bad luck streak and is ready to take on people who threaten the world... AGAIN!

* Everybody who actually reads the essays...

Answer time!

If you answer 1,2 or even 3 for question 1, you are definitely not agent material. The answer is none of the above, if you see the enemy just RUN for it. The question requires flexible thinking which is a strict criteria to become an agent.

If you answered 1 for the second question, congrats, you have mastered the art of disguise like Joel!

If you answered 2 for the second question, congrats, you have mastered the art of being dense like Si Cheng!

If you answered 3 for the second question, congrats, you have mastered the art of... oh wait... everybody can pee. Well at least you've learned how to pee compulsively like Bronson. Till next time!
