Summary:

Someone in The Old Guard is full of surprises.

Notes:

A story with a mystery in it. See if you can guess how it was done.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

They looked at the cell phone lying on the table. For hours, they had tried to crack the pin code but without any luck.

 

Nile: "It can't be that hard. Cracking a cell phone."

Joe: "I think Booker did it to irritate us. Deciding to go on an undercover mission without a cell phone just when we needed him the most."

Nicky: "It is an important mission. That separatist group has to be stopped or else we might end up with a war the world doesn't need."

Joe: "I know that. And you're right."

 

They looked over at Andy, who yawned. She had decided to take a nap since she was the one who had stolen the cell phone and had done her part of the mission if you asked her.

 

Andy: "How is it going?"

 

Joe let out a frustrated groan as he tried once again tried another combination of numbers.

 

Andy: "That well."

Joe sarcastically: "You're welcome to try, Boss."

Andy: "Why not. Give me the cell phone."

 

They all exchanged a look between them. They all knew the stories about Andy and modern technology.

 

Nicky: "Boss, you know Booker's rule. You aren't allowed to touch anything newer than a Nokia 3310."

Andy: "I won't tell if you don't tell."

 

Before they could stop Andy, Andy had taken the cell phone.

 

Andy: "See that wasn't too hard."

 

Andy handed Joe the now unlocked cell phone.

 

Andy: "And once again I have to do everything around here. Laters."

 

Andy waved at them as she left the kitchen with a bag of crisps.

 

Nile: "Has Andy suddenly turned into a new Booker when it comes to technology?"

Joe: "That's a scary thought, so let's not tell Booker that Andy unlocked the cell phone. He won't believe us if we told him it."

Nicky: "Well not until we have figured out how Andy did it."

 

Andy never told them how she unlocked the cell phone. She found it funny that they still were guessing.
