Summary
“You know,” Tom murmurs, conversationally, “for a family friend, pressuring Alex into going to an event he doesn’t want to go to seems pretty suspicious doesn’t it?”
"Tom!”
"Why did you do that?" he asks, a little blankly. "Why did you pull him out of school for weeks, why are you guilting him into doing what you want again? Do you know that half the school thinks my best friend uses drugs now?"
Takeshi is tired of seeing his friends pushed into the unforgiving maws of the underworld. Tom smiles at Alex and leads him away, trying not to scare Alex away for caring too much.

Summary
Freedom was certainly as sweet as what Macaque thought it would be. He could finally bathe in the warm sun again, feast on the sweet juices of fresh fruits without a care in the world. But he does not. Because despite having the choice of doing whatever he wants now, he is not quite sure what exactly he even wants to do. Freedom is bliss, but he is not used to being the only one to decide what he wants to do with it.
Although they had failed their mission before, they were not going to fail it again. They had a job to do, and that was to obtain the key and free their lady. They had promised her that they would get it, and they were not going to back out on that now. They could not. They lived to serve and to serve they shall. This is their destiny, and they are going to do whatever is necessary to fulfil it.
Aka, this is what Macaque and Chief/Mayor has been up to after the Quest for the Skeleton Key and before the LMK series! So to everyone who has been waiting, I hope you have found this and enjoy! If you haven’t read the first part of this series (The Quest For The Skeleton Key) then please go read it! There’s quite a few references to that fic so it will just help you in the long run.

Summary
Customs was a source of frustration even for world class assassins. All the more so when Yassen sees a very familiar and very unwanted mop of blonde hair in front of him. It had been 3 months since he warned Alex Rider to stay out of this line of work. He had obviously ignored that. The question was - is he working now? [Spyfest 2020 Week 3 Winner]
Or
Being Alex Rider’s unofficial guardian angel was more work than it should be but no less worth it.

Summary
Alex avait toujours su que sa curiosité et son impulsivité lui causerait des problèmes. Il s'était retrouvé mêlé avec le MI6 après tout. Il ne s'attendait tout de même pas à se retrouver à SCORPIA en tant qu'apprenti de Yassen Gregorovich. Pas de relation, Univers alternatif après Skeleton Key.
