Nobody Is A Secret Agent, Chapter 5, Part 1

Nobody Is A Secret Agent - Chapter 5, Part 1
by Kaity Pittard, Extraordinaire 


Jessica was sitting on the couch watching TV when her watch beeped. So Kyle wouldn't notice, she pretended to go to the bathroom. As soon as she was in it she hit the button. It was Peter.
    "Hello, I just wanted to remind you, you still need to choose a code name."
    "I'll be thinking about it. Bye". She walked back to the living room. She started thinking about a code name. What would work? Flower?Lightning? Butterfly? Bookworm? No, those didn't seem right. 
    "Jessica," said Mom, "could you clear off the table please".
    "Okay Mom." Jessica got up and went to the kitchen. As she started to clear things off, she was thinking. She headed up to her room when she was done. She sat at her desk thinking. A list would help, she thought. she slid a piece of paper down in front of her and started to jot down ideas.
 
Names
laser 
lightning
 tornado
 
Those all sounded weather related. She tried some other ideas:
 
violet
rose
 daisy
 
(She was looking at the garden in the front  yard.) She tried some other topics:

chocolate
butterscotch
mint

After a few minutes, the list looked like this:

Names
laser
lightning
tornado
violet
rose
daisy
chocolate
butterscotch 
mint
venus
owl
cat
bunny
Laser, Violet, Venus. How could she decide? Her mom called her down for dinner before she could think about it. She grabbed her book and headed downstairs.
 
What could her code name be? (post your guesses in the comment section)
