《The CEO's Daring Wife》 Chapter 1 Chapter 1 ZOOM! On an empty, abandoned street, a motorcycle was being chased by several police cars . There was even some helicopters surrounding the motorcycle . Everyone wanted to know . Who was on that motorcycle, and would the police be able to catch them?! This was a highly anticipated chase against a motorcycle driver . Why was the driver being chased exactly?? Becaus the driver was the hacker X . The most feared hacker by all, and because of a careless mistake made by the hacker, the police where now after him/her . The driver of said motorcycle couldn¡¯t help but nce back at their surroundings ¡¯Shit I can¡¯t believe that there are about 50 police cars and helicopters tailing me! I didn¡¯t even kill anyone, yet they still haven¡¯t given up after chasing me for almost a week now! This is getting tiring!¡¯ Almost everyone was at home, sitting in front of their TVs, just watching this chase go down, wondering who would win this chase . The hacker was obviously smart, since they had managed to be know worldwide, and always had a lot of police after them, yet the hacker always managed to escape from the polices grasps . Today was no different either, as the hacker already had an escape n for the day The hacker had many contacts to help them get away with almost everything The hacker smirked to themselves ¡¯In exactly 32 seconds there will be an opening for me to escape . I just have to pick up my pace and drive 105mph, than enter the building to the right, where one of my contacts set up and prepared for me . ¡¯ 3 2 1 Bam! Everyone was shocked The people watching at home on television were watching the intense chase go down, when all of a sudden, argemotion urred . All police speakers that were currently broadcasting the event, listing every detail that was happening in real time, all started shouting "TARGET LOST", and several other simr things to one another . No one had seen where the motorcycle had went, and everything went into an uproar Meanwhile, the hacker had rushed inside a building that appeared to be very expensive and fairly new, but it actually belonged to the #1 corporation in the world . Everyone knew that the CEO of the corporation hated to be involved in trivial matters, or any matters at all really, unless it was rted to hispany . The CEO, Tan Lin, was said to be extremely distant and cold . The police knew better than to enter this building, for if they did, they would face severe punishment . Everyone thought that it was impossible for the hacker to even be able to step foot inside that building, so no one dared or bothered to check it . Back to the hackers point of view The hacker had rushed inside and drove their motorcycle to the nearest restroom, and left the motorcycle outside if the bathroom . The only reason why the hacker dared to even step foot inside of this building, was because her contact told her information that not that many other people knew about . ¡¯ording to my contacts information, today no one is at thepany because of a special event going on for the corporation . . so this ce is totally safe for me to hide in for a while!¡¯ The hacker rushed into the female bathroom and removed their biker helmet in front of the mirror . If anyone saw what this hacker truly looked like, they would be shocked and would instantly think ¡¯goddess¡¯ The worldwide hacker was a female, looking about age 23, with very fair skin . She had long, strait, beautiful, white hair, and red eyes . Even though she wasn¡¯t wearing any makeup, she was instantly in the top section of beauties in the whole world . Anyone that saw this female hacker called Mei koi could never even start to think that she was actually a world ss hacker, known by all! She looked as if she was a sweet, innocent person that could never do any if wrong whatsoever . She looked more like a model than anything else, honestly . After the female hacker was done changing her clothes and fixing her hair, decided to go to the kitchen and get a snack . But first, she needed to find out where the kitchen was . Mei pulled out her tablet from a hidden department on her motorcycle, and instantly started hacking the Li corporations data . Mei Koi had extremely fast finger speed, which is one of the many main reasons why she was the top hacker in the world . Mei easily hacked into thepany¡¯s data in less than a minute, which would leave anyone trembling . The Li corporation group was, after all, known as the #1 corporation which no one could hack . Not even the other top rank hackers could even dream of hacking into the Li corporation, but here Mei Koi was, hacking into thepany acting like it was no big deal . This beauty was definitely scary, if she could do all that, just to get some snacks! After Mei went into the kitchen to get some snacks, she looked at her data of the ce and found a living room type of area where she could sit down and watch the television After Mei Koi rxed on the expensive couch, She turned on the news, so she could see what was going on with the police right now . ¡¯The police are currently searching for this infamous hacker everywhere, yet there is still no traces of the hacker X . We will immediately update everyone if there is any new news about the current situation . . . ¡¯ Yep . Of course, the police had no idea where this hacker was, I mean, after all, she IS the #1 hacker in the world, so it¡¯s not gonna be THAT easy! Mei Koi decided to take a small nap on the couch, because after all, thepany wouldn¡¯te back here till tomorrow! Mei Koi thought everyone had left, but actually two people had stayed . The CEO and his assistant were watching the security cameras the whole time actually . The CEO heard of the current situation, so he decided to see if he could bait the hacker into hispany, just because he was bored . He hadn¡¯t really expected that the hacker would actually GO INSIDE of hispany, HACK into hispany, EAT FOOD from HIS kitchen, and then have the AUDACITY to SLEEP on HIS property . He also hadn¡¯t expected the hacker to actually be a beautiful woman at all . The assistant besides him wanted to know "CEO Li, would you like me to do anything to this hacker?" The CEO was far to interested and entertained with this hacker to just kick her out "No, do not do anything to her currently, I would like to see what she does first, she¡¯s quite interesting, don¡¯t you think?" The secretary was surprised by what the CEO had said . The secretary had already prepared to kick her out, and yet this cold CEO who disliked almost everyone and everything, had told him otherwise, and even said that he was interested in this woman!! "U-Uh yes sir! She is quite ¡¯interesting¡¯ indeed sir!" And so the two people continued to watch the sleeping Mei Koi . Chapter 2 Chapter 2 1 hour after Mei Koi had fallen asleep, she was woken by her instincts . Another main reason why Mei was the #1 hacker was because of her great instincts when danger was near . Obviously, Mei Koi knew she could no longer stay in the Li corporation, so she contacted one of her contacts to help her n out an escape, since after all, the police were still searching the vicinity for her . Ding Her contact replied to her ¡¯Pack up your stuff, and then silently maneuver your motorcycle to one of the guest rooms . I suggest you use the guest room on the 7th floor, farthest to the left . Then abandon you motorcycle there, and put on your police disguise, and in exactly 45 minutes, exit through the side door and slowly blend in with the crowd of police officers . ¡¯ Mei sighed to herself ¡¯if only hacking didn¡¯t require having to constantly be in the run and always preform strategic ns which require hard work and time . . then I might enjoy my job more . . ¡¯ Back in the security room "U-um boss, would you like me to anything to the hacker now?? It looks like she is nning to leave . . " The CEO¡¯s cold voice filled the room "No . Leave her as is . And prepare my suit . I¡¯m going to go after her and observe . " ¡¯what?? The CEO himself is going to go out just to observe this person? The world must be about to end or something . . no way I¡¯m hearing this correctly . . ¡¯ the secretary was confused, questioning his life, when he heard his boss speak again "What are you doing just standing there?? Hurry! She¡¯s going to leave soon!!" "A-ah yes sir!! Right away!" The secretary rushed to get a suit for the CEO, fearing for his life . Meanwhile, with Mei Koi Mei Koi rushed to the nearest bathroom, changed into police attire, put on a long blonde wig, and put in hazel contacts to disguise herself . She didn¡¯t want anyone actually seeing her real self, even if the police had no idea what the hacker they were chasing looked like . Mei Koi didn¡¯t want to take any risks whatsoever . At the same time Mei Koi was getting ready, the CEO was also dressing so that he could watch this hackers actions . ¡¯Time to go!¡¯ Mei Koi got ready just in time to leave out the side door at the exact time her contact said to . Mei Koi sneakily left the side door and joined in with the crowd . Even if there was only about 50 police vehicles after her in total, each vehicle had about 3 to 4 police officers, totaling to about 170 police officers after her . There were still about 140 officers surrounding the vicinity where she wasst seen, so it was pretty easy to blend in with the police . After pretending to search for about 15 minutes for the hacker, Mei koi¡¯s instincts told her that danger was about to ur . Sure enough, the CEO of thepany she was staying at, had acted as if he just pulled into hispany and noticed all themotion "What¡¯s going on here??" The CEOS loud voice echoed in everyone¡¯s ears that were present . There was absolute silence . Everyone in their right mind knew that the CEO hated to be apart of anymotions, and there were normally severe consequences that followed if the CEO was bothered . "SPEAK! Someone tell me WHAT IS GOING ON!!" Finally, someone actually had the courage to speak, even though they were nervous . "U-Uh sorry to disturb you, CEO Tan Li . . W-Well yo-you see . . . the police are currently ch-chasing after a hacker that is rated #1 worldwide . . . The hacker had disappeared mid-chase, s-so we are searching for them . . so-sorry to disturb y-you!!" "That¡¯s enough . " The CEO¡¯s voice didn¡¯t sound annoyed, like everyone imagined it would be "Continue on . No need to exin further, BUT, I will be supervising this . " Silence . Absolute silence . Even people watching on television had held their breaths . . Everyone knew this was not how the CEO normally behaved . "What are you doing? Why are you not doing anything? I said I would watch, so just hurry up and continue what you were doing!" The CEOS voice broke the silence in the air, and slowly, everyone started chatting and discussing the topic at hand again . Meanwhile, Mei Koi stood their, in the crowd, frozen ¡¯What the heck?!?! The CEO wasn¡¯t supposed toe back till tomorrow!! I need to hurry up and delete the Surveince . . well I can¡¯t really do it now so I¡¯ll just tell one of my contacts to hurry up and do it!!¡¯ The CEO was watching Mei Koi¡¯s mental breakdown the whole time, and quite frankly, he was enjoying himself . All of a sudden, the CEOS phone dinged . His secretary had sent him a message that read ¡¯Boss, all the surveince of the hackers stay has been deleted, as if it was never there . It waspletely wiped out without a single trace!! Do you want me to do anything about it??¡¯ The CEO smiled to himself and replied ¡¯No, just leave it be for now, just sit back and watch the show . . ¡¯ ¡¯Wow . . this girl is really amazing . . she managed topletely wipe out all the data of her staying in mypany, in a matter of seconds . What makes it more impressive is that I was watching her the whole time and I didn¡¯t even see her lift a finger . What kind of skills and connections does this girl have exactly??¡¯ This female hacker had definitely seeded in gaining the CEOS attention, even though she didn¡¯t mean to whatsoever . This girl was definitely amazing in many different ways . . . Chapter 3 Chapter 3 ¡¯Sh*t . . why does HE have toe back NOW??¡¯ Mei Koi looked up at the CEO and paused Mei Koi was frozen in spot, not able to process anything . She was staring at a very handsome young man, what¡¯s more, he looked around the same age as her! He had dark blue hair, and clear, ocean blue eyes, and to top it all of, he was wearing a million dor suit . Over all he looked about 10x better than most idols and pop-stars . . . Mei had paused for many reasons when she saw him For one, he was handsome For two, she had spent a long time fantasizing about her dream prince that woulde to her one day and rescue her . Of course, as any normal girl her age would do, she had to make sure that her Prince Charming was handsome . . and her ¡¯Prince Charming¡¯ and this ¡¯CEO lu¡¯ looked almostpletely identical For three, because of his appearance, she identally thought ¡¯Hellooo my Prince Charming!!¡¯ in a way that was showing romantic feelings (I don¡¯t know how to describe it better than that . . ) And four . . . Mei Koi and Tang Li looked like they were perfect for each other . . . and were made specially for each other . . ¡¯n-no way! How- wh-what is going on here!? Thump . . Thump . . . Thump . . . thump . . ¡¯Stay calm . . I¡¯ve been in simr situations many times already throughout my experience as the infamous Hacker X . . . so why is my heart beating SO FAST?? thump . Was there poison in the food she ate?? Thump Did they somehow know I wasing ahead of time so they poisoned all the food?? Thump Is he a genius or something . . . Thump no way . . . this is impossible . . Thump nobody has ever even came close to figuring out where I run off to whenever I¡¯m being chased by the police . . So how can someone figure out where I¡¯m going ahead of time?? No . . not possible . . I¡¯m betting my whole life on this . . Thump There¡¯s No way he knew anything at all . . So what else could it be that¡¯s causing my heart to beat so fast?? Mei Koi was trying to think of any possible excuse as to why her heart was beating so fast . She wanted to deny any possibility of her actually . . sort of . . well . . LIKING him . . No matter how hard she tried to deny it though, it just kept creeping back into her thoughts . . . ¡¯I think I might . . actually . . like him??? ¡¯AHH curse this stupid human body for wanting romance and normal emotions!! Why does it have to be a human desire to have romance?? I can¡¯t just freeze up every time I see him . . I mean that would make me look bad!! Aaghhh I wish I didn¡¯t have any emotions!! That would make my job a million times easier!!!¡¯ Mei Koi didn¡¯t realize that she was staring at him the whole time she was lost in her thoughts . . . Until . . . They made direct eye contact . ¡¯Damn curse my luck!! I forgot to act normal!!¡¯ Mei Koi quickly looked away from Tong Li and immediately started to act like she was searching for clues of the hacker X Tong li had seen all of this, and because Mei Koi was busy lost in thoughts . . she forgot to hide the emotion in her face Tong li smirked to himself when he caught her checking him out, lost in thought . . . Anyone who saw him smirk felt like the world was about to end . . . first of all, The CEO everyone knows and fears had shown up out of nowhere and said that he was going to supervise all of them . . As if this wasn¡¯t enough pressure and stress . . He had just SMILED to himself while watching them ¡¯suffer¡¯ . The CEO is known by all for his cold personality, and there were even some rumors that the CEO hadn¡¯t even smiled before in his whole entire life . . . Yet he had just smiled while watching his ¡¯ves¡¯ work away! They didn¡¯t notice that he was actually looking at a girl, but anyone who saw him probably thought that he might of been smiling because he was thinking about ways to torchere the workers who ck off or annoy him . . This caused anyone who saw him smirk to instantly start trying to do their very best, not wanting to miss a single detail on the hackers whereabouts, no matter how small the clue might be! They actually thought that they would die if they missed anything or screwed anything up!! The world was definitely going to end soon!! at least in the eyes of people who saw him . . (You don¡¯t have to read what I wrote down below . . i just talked about the update schedule and my life . . kinda boring if you ask me . . ) AUTHORS NOTE: Hello everyone! I just wanted to say that there is no official update schedule as I am very busy most of the time . . To start of with, I am only 12 years old in 7th grade (but don¡¯t worry, I act very mature for my age . . ) In school, I am in all high honors sses . So of course, in all honors sses, I receive A LOT of homework, which takes some of my free time . . I¡¯m also a girl-scout, so every week, I have to drive to a factory and pick up girl-scout cookies, which takes about an hour to do so every time . . Not to mention almost every single weekend I go to a store, mainly Walmart, and sell cookies at a cookie booth from around 11:00 to 5:00 outside (in the freezing cold, it really isn¡¯t nice to be frozen alive . . haha, but selling cookies is really fun, no matter what though . . . ) every Saturday and Sundays . . but don¡¯t worry, I am still trying to update this as much as possible though . . and I personally believe I still have a lot of free time!! and ps . I don¡¯t have any social life so that doesn¡¯t take up any of my time haha . . welp I hope you enjoy this story and continue to support it . . it¡¯s the first story I¡¯ve ever really wrote before! Bye! I just wanted to inform you that there is no official update schedule as i am very busy!! I hope you all have a great day, and once again, thank you for reading my Read! Man this whole authors note felt way to cheesy for my liking! I hate to be cheesy ahh . . . Chapter 4 Chapter 4 So far the ¡¯evil¡¯ CEO had been supervising the police do their job for about an hour now At this point all the police officers had felt like the CEO liked to watch people suffer . . Mei Koi had felt like she was going to lose her sanity if she had to wait any longer, but she knew that it would be dumb for her to leave under the watchful eye of all the police, and not to mention, CEO Lu was also watching everyone . ¡¯I wonder when everybody will be free to leave?? Maybe I could send a secret message to a contact and have them make an excuse for me?? I mean it doesn¡¯t sound like a bad idea . . ¡¯ While everyone had their own opinions about Tang Li and the situation they were in, CEO Li was enjoying himself by watching the hackers misfortune, wondering what she was going to do to get out of this mess . ¡¯Ehh whatever, first before I contact my contact I¡¯ll ask a police officer here about how much longer we might have to stay here . . but I have to chose one who looks like an idiot . I can¡¯t have any tails on me because someone ratted me out saying I left early . . ¡¯ After surveying the crowd of police officers for a little while inconspicuously, Mei Koi finally saw someone who she thought would be the perfect idiot that she needed for her n to work . Mei Koi casually approached the ¡¯victim¡¯ and said in her sweetest tone possible "Umm . . do you happen to know what time we can leave?? I- I have to hurry back home real quick! You see, my little brother is sick and doesn¡¯t have anyone to watch over him currently, so I-Uh was wondering when I could leave??" Never hurt to have an excuse, even if the person she was talking to looked like an idiot . Better safe than sorry! The person she was talking to looked average, he had an average looking face, an average height . . basically everything about him was ¡¯average¡¯ . . . He looked up at her before replying "you don¡¯t know?? We¡¯re aloud to leave anytime . . . ? There isn¡¯t a bound time period of how long we have to stay, it¡¯s just that no one wants to leave, in fear of getting in trouble with the CEO . . . " he looked at her like she was an idiot ¡¯Oh so now IM the idiot . . good job, Mei Koi!! Do I even havemon sense?? I guess I have to make up an excuse now . . . what should I say?? I have amnesia?? I was in a panic so I forgot? Uhh . . ¡¯ "I¡¯m new here!" Mei blurted out ¡¯I need more than that! Ahh¡¯ "Well, you see, I just joined the police force . . so I don¡¯t really know all the exact rules by memory yet! Well, thank you, kind sir! I¡¯ll be off now! Have a good day!" ¡¯I hope he believes that . . well I gotta go now!¡¯ ¡¯Ah . . wait . . I have to contact someone to pick me up first . . am I loosing my mind today??? It sure feels like it!¡¯ After Mei Koi called for someone to pick her up, she was told to wait about 10 minutes until she got picked up . That basically meant that she had 10 minutes to kill . So what should she do?? Well she had 10 minutes to waste so why not learn more about the information the police had gathered on her so far . . After being a hacker for so many years now, Mei Koi had basically be an expert in gathering data and observing crowds . . . she wouldn¡¯t really be that great a hacker if she didn¡¯t have basic observation skills . So far, she has gathered the fact that the police only know that I have outside help . . . So basically, they knew nothing . . . It was honestly kind of sad, but at the same time it made Mei Koi feel really proud of herself . After all, the police still had no trace of her . Mei Koi smirked to herself thinking that ordinary police like them had no change against a legendary hacker like herself . . . Meanwhile, the CEO had noticed the hackers recent movement, and saw that she had openly made a phone call . He wasn¡¯t the CEO for nothing, after all . He was also incredibly smart, resulting in him bing the CEO even when he was still a teenager . Obviously she was preparing to leave . The CEO wasn¡¯t going to let her go that easily, he had already spent a while watching her, so he didn¡¯t have a n to just let her go anytime soon . . "Attention everyone!" The crowd went silent as they all turned to face the evil CEO, waiting for this ¡¯horrible person¡¯ to speak . "You all must leave now! I no longer give any police officers permission to be in this area!" "What?" "Seriously??" "He just wanted to watch us suffer and then force us away . . how cruel!!" There were several murmurs amongst the crowd, but the CEO didn¡¯t care . He was only focused on what the hacker would do next . ¡¯Surely, amongst all this traffic, she would have a really difficult time leaving!¡¯ As the CEO surveyed the crowd for the female hacker, no matter where he looked, he could not see her . . . ¡¯Damn! Just how good is she at escaping, huh??¡¯ The CEO was visibly annoyed now, as he shouted "EVERYBODY HURRY UP AND GET OUT!!" Everyone knew the CEO wasn¡¯t joking, so there was panic among the crowd . They knew that the CEO could easily make them loose their job, and he could even kill them all without problem . He couldn¡¯t even be arrested! This was a person no one wanted to mess with . Back to Mei Koi "Ah, thank you, Tom Hai for getting me out of that situation! That CEO had the nerve to mess with me! How annoying!!" "Yeah Mei, that CEO sure is troublesome . . but at least he gave us an opening to leave . . who would of ever thought that he would cause a panic among the crowd, forcing everyone to leave . " It gave the two an excellent reason to leave, and heck, they didn¡¯t even need to exin themselves! Haha The CEO had really screwed up this time . . . he identally let the female hacker get away easily, by causingmotion in the crowd . His n had definitely backfired, and it was all his fault . Chapter 5 - Not a chapter

Chapter 5 - Not a chapter

Hello people! Yesterday I had to run a cookie booth, so I was busy (along with other stuff..) And today I have to run another cookie booth (for girl scouts) outside of Walmart for about 3 hours... ahh it¡¯s going to be soo cold, but I just wanted to let you know that I probably won¡¯t upload today, though I have a feeling I might write a chapter in the car on my way to Walmart.... SO, no upload is garunteed for today! Okay, update!! So after I got all bundled up, like I¡¯m legit wearing SO manyyers, I was about to walk out of the front door, when all of a sudden, I was informed that the cookie booth was canceled! So you CAN expect a chapterter today!! Ahh Also I¡¯m interested in starting tae qwan do (however you spell it) so that might take up more time today!! Chapter 6 Chapter 6 "Find out that girls name!!" The CEO told his secretary . After all themotion had urred, the CEO had angrily stomped into his massivepany . He was furious that the female hacker managed to escape from his grasp . The poor secretary had no clue of what to do . Yeah, his boss had told him to find out that girls name and information, but there was one thing that was bothering the secretary . . . ¡¯DID HE FORGET THAT SHE IS THE #1 HACKER X?? ITS PROBABLY NEAR IMPOSSIBLE, MAYBE EVEN IMPOSSIBLE, TO FIND OUT SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS HER NAME?!? EVEN IF I AM A WORLD-CLASS TOP HACKER, IM STILL NOWHERE NEAR HER LEVEL!!¡¯ The secretary was also a hacker himself, but he needed all the help he could get, so he contacted the rest of the emloyees and told them all to hurry back to thepany . ????????????????? . . . Mei koi had just called her trusty partner in crime and friend, Ali Maret . Mei Koi was busy reminiscing in their past together They had known each other since they were little . They had met in an orphanage one day, when Ali was being bullied . Mei Koi had seen Ali getting bullied, and decided to do something about it . Mei Koi started beating up the bully, but was soon stopped by a grown up . Ever since that moment, the two had stuck together and stood up for one another . Both of them were beauties, so there had been many requests to adopt one of them . They could of gotten adopted sooner, but they refused to be adopted if the parents didn¡¯t adopt both of them . Finally, after a while, someone actually adopted both of them together . The man that adopted them was world ss hacker . He had been the #1 hacker at the time, but since he was getting old, he wanted someone to take his ce . He didn¡¯t want his legacy to end . . He had trained both of them for years, making them ve away every day, and practice hacking . He had always made them train together for the whole day with no exceptions except to eat food, sleep and practice survival skills Incase the police caught them . Because of this, neither of them had seen anyone else for a huge portion of their life, except for the man that took them in, Fade Zi, each other, and sometimes they saw some of Fade Zi¡¯s contacts observing them with Fade Zi . Of course, because of theck of humans and the rules they had to follow each and every day, the two formed an unbreakable bond that no one else could reallypare to . They had been through blood, sweat, and tears together . Back to the current time "MEI KOI I SWEAR DID YOU DO SOMETHING STUPID??? YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO CONTACT ME AN HOUR AGO!! DON¡¯T YOU DARE DO THIS AGAIN!! YOU HEAR ME???" Mei Koi sighed . She knew her best friend was really worried for her . She always was, and that was one of the reasons why Mei koi treasured her friendship with Ali . Ali was such a sweet, kind, caring girl . She really didn¡¯t deserve this of life . She should be making friends and socializing, yet here she was, hiding and running away for the rest if her life "I¡¯m so so sooo sorry Ali! Believe me! I swear I meant to contact you earlier, but you see... well . . It¡¯s a long story, okay? I¡¯m pulling up to our base now... I¡¯ll tell you there... Kay??" "Finneee... but you better tell me EVERYTHING!! You know you can¡¯t worry me like tha-" Beep . Mei Koi had hung up the phone . She didn¡¯t want to have to hear a long lecture, after all, she had a long day . Finally, Mei Koi arrived at the base and went inside . She was greeted with a pair of arms wrapped around her tightly . Mei Koi could see tear stains on her best friends face, so she just hugged her back andforted her . Ali sniffled "Okay . Tell me EVERYTHING now!! No holding back! Kay!?" And so, Mei told her everything that happened to her . All about the chase, all about her stay at Lipany, and finally, about the devil (the CEO)ing back early, and then forcing her to stay at the scene a lot longer than she had originally intended . Chapter 7 Chapter 7 The CEOS secretary was panicking to atleast find out SOMETHING about the hacker, no mattee how small . He certainly couldnt go back to the CEO without learing ANYTHING about her . . . He didn¡¯t n to loose his head anytime soon! Finally, almost like magic, another hacker shouted out something "GUYS I FOUND SOMETHING OUT ABOUT HER!!" This was a cause to be celebrated . They actually found something??!!? All the hackers gathered there surrounded the man who shouted . "W-well, What is it, Jerald?? Hurry up, speak already!!" The secretary urged the hacker called Jerald to spit out what he found . "Well, you see . . I was searching through everything to find something, and than I noticed it! What I found out about her . . is that . . . she . . . she¡¯s a vegan!!" Silence . ¡¯Welp, at least it was SOMETHING! Maybe we can use this information to our advantage and check out all the vegan food ces in the area and see if she ever stops by one of those ces?? She might have an aplice that goes out for her to get food . . . so we could just observe every single person that buys food in a vegan ce, and we will find out information about every . Single . Person . There . Man that would be a lot of people!!¡¯ The secretary immediately contacted the CEO and told him they found something . Tang Lu had immediately rushed over to their location and told his secretary to tell him everything . "W-well sir, we discovered that she is a vegan . . " The secretary hesitated . He couldn¡¯t decide if he should tell his boss his n or not . The CEO obviously noticed his hesitation so he pressed him to tell him "continue . . What else do you have to say??" "Well, sir, I think we could maybe . . . " the secratary told the CEO his whole n, to recieve a nod from his boss "Good idea . Check out and observe every single vegan ce in the country and every single person that enters and leaves!" What?? What did he just say?? The whole country?? That¡¯s ridiculous!! That¡¯s so many ces and so many people . . and he wanted them to find out EVERY SINGLE PERSONS whole history, not missing a single detail . . . ?????? That¡¯s absurd!! ¡¯I knew I shouldn¡¯t of told him my n . . . ??????¡¯ The secretary and every hacker there present was about to break down and cry . . Why did this mystery hacker have to appear out of nowhere and ruin their lives???? Chapter 8 Chapter 8 It was about a week after Mei Koi sessfully escaped from the polices grasps when her best friend, Ali Maret, confronted her . "Mei . . . can we . . . uhh . . . maybe . . join the Talent~fest together?? Please!?" Mei Koi sighed . She had already told Ali that it was impossible . The Talent~fest was an event that was held yearly . It was created so people from all over could showcase their talents or hobby¡¯s . Quite a few famous people started their career out by Talent~fest actually . Ever since they were still in the orphanage, it was one of Ali¡¯s dreams to be famous, but obviously, that couldn¡¯t happen, at least for a while . There was no way Fade Zi would allow that . He always said "Never let anyone find out you are alive . Do NOT draw attention to yourself¡¯s AT ALL!! DO YOU HEAR ME?!?!" Mei Koi really hated the fact that they can¡¯t really join Talent~fest, since it disappointed Ali so much . If they did Talent~fest, they would obviously be noticed . They both had many talents beside hacking . They could do taeqwondo along with several other forms of martial arts . They coud also paint, sing, dance, act, y the piano and almost every single musical instrument, and of course, they could hack . They were the best at hacking by far, but every skill they know was also mastered to their fullest possibilty . The only reason why Fade made them learn all of this was because he said "it would help them blend in" both of them had no idea how it could help them "blend in" since their talents really made them stand out . Maybe it was because if they were really popr, no one would think that both of them were the Hacker X?! Honestly this question stumped them both . Seeing her best friends hesitant look, Ali Maret spike up "Do you Remember . . Fade Zi said that our talents will help up . . blend in . . . right?? Well we should try it out and see if it works! There¡¯s no way anyone would know that we were hackers . . . . and if something goes wrong, we can do what we do best!" ¡¯Wow . She really is persistent . I guess I will listen to her whole speech . . . maybe it would be good for us to try something new and experience life??¡¯ Mei Koi also wanted to try it out, but she was the more rational one of the two . It was her job to think things through before doing anything risky (even though she failed because she didn¡¯t realize the CEO was watching her every move in the first chapter haha . . ) "What exactly do we do best?" "Run away and hide of course!! No one has ever found out where we hide, and we¡¯re always running away from our problems!" Ali gave Mei the puppy dog eyes . Ouch . That was a jab to Mei¡¯s side . Way to make Mei Koi feel bad! Chapter 9 Chapter 9 On cue, Ali started using her acting skill, and cried "you know how much I wanna do this, Mei! It¡¯s been my dream ever since we were little! Come on, pleeaaaassssseeeeeee??? I just wanna live a normal childhood and try out stuff we could never do before! Pleasssesee let us do the Talent~fest!!" This pained Mei Koi, she hated to see her best friend she treated like a sister cry, even if it was fake . "F-fine . . . . . but you have to swear, if anything goes wrong, we will immediately run away and stay low . If we do have to hide, than we can never . Ever . Enter the showbiz again, okay??" "MEI KOI YOUR THE BEST!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCCHHHH!!! AHHH IM SO EXCITED!!!" Ali wrapped her arms around Mei and gave her a bear hug "So . . " Mei Koi was curious about this "what talent are we gonna show?? I know for a fact that we won¡¯t be showing our hacking skills¡ª that¡¯s out of the question!!" "Well¡ªum . . I thinking about doing all of them . . well, at least some of them . We could be a Idol Duet team! For our first performance, I was thinking that one of us could y the piano and sing, and the other could do a spiritual dance to go along with the song the other is ying?? Or we could do a duet on the piano and also sing together?? I don¡¯t really care what we do, I¡¯m just SOOOO EXCITEEDDDDDD!!! Hehehe!!" It was clear that Ali had actually thought about what they could do together for a long time now, but at the moment, she couldn¡¯t think strait . She was just to excited to be able to preform with her bestie at Talent~fest!! "Come on, let¡¯s go and practice our routine! Haha!" Ali dragged Mei to their music room . Even though it was their hideout, they still needed stuff to pass time . It was mainly just used by Ali, since Mei spent a lot of her time being the infamous Hacker X . "Wait . Oh . My . God . WE TOTALY NEED A PERFORMER STAGE NAME! NOT TO MENTION WE HAVE TO PICK OUR NAME FOR OUR DOU!!! Maybe we could make it our ship name?? If we don¡¯t use stage names, we could TOTALY be Meli!! Or maybe Aei?? Nah . . Aei doesn¡¯t sound good . . . THIS IS GONNA BE SO FUN HAAHA!" Ali was in her very own paradise right about now, thinking about their whole career . She already was thinking of all the Grammys they were gonna win . Mei sighed . ¡¯This is gonna be a long night, isn¡¯t it?! ????????????????? . . . . The secretary and the rest of the hackers were still observing vegan ces . . man was that tiring! They all had no idea when they would be able to stop observing vegan ces, but they all hoped it ended soon! ¡¯Please don¡¯t torture us any more, boss! We can¡¯t take it anymore ahhhh¡¯ Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Voices of the two besties filled the room . They were currently practicing for their uing performance in the Talent~fest "I know your all excited to practice or whatever . . . but we still have to sign up for it before we can actually participate . . " Since there were always so many people who wanted to join the Talent~fest each year, the people in charge of the event had to eliminate some people of the list, resulting overtime with an average of 30 to 50 contestants overall . The way someone applied to join the Talent~fest was that they had to follow a list of criteria 1 . Include a headshot 2 . Include performance details (what you will do for the act) 3 . Make the judges amazed 4 . Try to stand out among the other contestants Basically to join, you had to show them what you looked like, tell em¡¯ what you will do, and you have to catch the judges eyes . This would be a piece of cake for Mei and Ali, after all, they were beautiful, they had so many talents to showcase, and with their looks and skills, how could they NOT catch the judges eyes?? They didn¡¯t have to worry about getting in, so they just focused on practicing . The Talent~Fest was in the same style as something like Britain¡¯s Got Talent . There were multiple rounds, and every round, there were judges to determine whether or not they would advance to the next round . The only thing different about this round was that all the viewers of the Talent~fest were the judges¡ª and there were A LOT of viewers! (I¡¯ve been binge watching Britain¡¯s got talent and the X factor recently . . . hehe . . . it kind of inspired the Talent~fest) ?????? ???????? ?????? "BOSS! BOSS!!!" The secretary had just barged into Tan¡¯s office screaming . "I JUST GOT NEWS THAT THE FEMALE HACKER WE ARE LOOKING INTO IS GOING TI BE PARTICIPATING IN THE TALENT~FEST AS A DUO!!!!" The secretary was out of breath . They had actually discovered something big! This was a cause for celebration! "What will she be doing . . . and is she doing it with a male or female??" Thest question Tan added was just for his sake . . . he wanted to know if she was taken or had any rtives . . "Sir! She will be doing singing, ying the piano, martial arts, painting, along with a couple other things! She had already nned to make it into the next rounds using different talents! As for who she is with, it is a female . " The CEO sighed in relief "Well, what does it say their names are??" The secretary hesitated "Well . . . it says their names are . . . um . . . Mei and Ali . . . . of course, they are only stage names . . . . no way would they ever use their real names!" "The hacker will be called Mei and the other girl is called Ali . . . !" ???????? ???????????????????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ???????? ?????????? . . . . (Of course, no one knew that . . . . ) "Whatever, just give me all the information you can find out about this ¡¯Ali¡¯ girl . . . . " The CEOS heart was beating for an unknown reason Chapter 11 Chapter 11 "Sir! Currently, there is no more information about either of the two, but I will update you immediately once we learn something!" The secretary knew that there was no more information, so why even bother?? "Fine, but you must tell me ASAP when you find something!" "Yes Sir!" The secretary had already dialed a bunch of news media outlets to instruct them ahead of time about providing them inside information about Talent~fest and ALL of the contestants . ????????????????? . . . "Mei! I think I found the PERFECT song for us to do a duet together!! Here! Look this!" Ali handed Mei the music sheet for her approval . "Yes, this is good . . . but first of all, who will sing, who will dance, and who will y the piano . . ?" "Well, I was thinking that I would start of ying the piano and then you would sing and dance elegantly, then after a while I¡¯ll join in on the singing to!" "Why will you join in on singing, isn¡¯t my voice already better than yours??" Mei really couldn¡¯t think of any reason for Ali to also sing . . After hearing what Mei said, Ali pouted like a spoiled child being told the words ¡¯no¡¯ and activated her puppy dog eyes "It¡¯s not faiirrr . . . your only doing this because I wanna . . . pleaseee let me showcase some of my other talents! I don¡¯t wanna have everyone think YOUR the main girl in our group . . besides . . . " Ali was trying to think of more convincing things to say "Besides . . . won¡¯t it amaze everyone even FURTHER if both of us beauties can sing . . andter on both of us could even dance together . . o-or maybe we could y the piano together!!" Ali was getting really excited, she was actually also making herself be more and more convinced with this idea Ali breathes in a HUGE breath, preparing to speak "PPPLLLLEEEEEAAAAASSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! with a cherry on top??" Mei sighed "Fine . Whatever, I guess I don¡¯t have a problem with us singing together, but it will just add on more training and preparing for the both of us in the end . . So are you still sure you wanna do that, even IF it requires MORE training?" "OF COURSE!! IS THAT EVEN A QUESTION!! THIS IS MY DREAMMM! I won¡¯t just let training get in the way of my DREAM! besides . . . you already know that we¡¯re both quick learners . . . OH GOSH IM SO EXCITED!!!! HEHEHE THIS IS GONNA BE SOOO FUN!!" And so, weeks of practice followed . . . . Obviously, if you couldn¡¯t tell by now, Ali is the hyperactive one, where Mei is the calm and rational one . . Authors note: Sorry for theck of updates . . I was just so busy the past while, from school, Girl Scouts, taekwondo, and also homework . . god I hate homework! But anyways I¡¯m about to try and write a BUNCH of chapters for today . . it may take me around 20 to 40 minutes to write for each chapter, (not to mention that talent~fest ising up, and I¡¯m really not creative . . like I have no creativity whatsoever . . . ) Welp bye! I¡¯m going to start to write a bunch of chapters to make up for missed time! (>©n<) Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Finally, after weeks of practice, it was actually Talent~fest day! "CEO, follow me this way!" The secretary was leading the CEO to their private seating area to watch the Talent Fest . Because of the CEOS dislike for other people, the secretary reserved a whole private seating section just for the CEO to use and enjoy . . . There was no way the CEO was gonna miss this ¡¯Mei and Ali¡¯s¡¯ performance . After all, the one called ¡¯Mei¡¯ had taken his interest, not to mention he also wanted to figure out who this ¡¯Ali¡¯ was that would actually be preforming with ¡¯Mei¡¯ . The CEO smirked to himself ¡¯Now I wonder . . . Ms . Hacker Mei . . . do you really have any other talents BESIDES hacking?? If so . . you are an EXPERT at catching my attention . . . Depending on how good you are, I might even grow attached to you! Haha now THAT would be funny . . ¡¯ "HELLLOOOO EVERYBODY!!! ARE YOU GUYS READDDDYYYYYY??????????" The announcer for the contest was on stage, trying to rile up the crowd and get them excited "YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHH" a loud cheer ripped through the crowd, not showing any signs of stopping . "FOR THE FIRST ACT OF TONIGHT . . . WE HAVE . . . . " The announcer wanted to create suspense, but it was actually just torturing the crowd "HURRY UP ALL READY OLD MAN! COME ON!!! PLEAASSSEEE IM DYING OVER HERE IF YOU DIDNT NOTICE!!" A guy had stood up and shouted this, and following after, several others also shouted very simr things . . "Ahem . . FOR THE FIRST ACT OF TONIGHT WE HAVE A NEWLY STARTED BOY BAND CALLED THE HUSKYS!! THEY WILL BE PREFORMING THE SONG CALLED ????????????????? by the BACKSTREET BOYS!!" the announcer quickly left the stage . After everybody had quieted down, some handsome men walked onstage . This, of course, made a bunch of women shout out stuff to the group . Those women, just like the majority of earth, were always excited to see such handsome boys . Same thing with the men, if they had seen a beautiful women, they also might be going crazy . Of course, there where always exceptions, like Bisexuals for example . Both genders could easily get excited in the presence of handsome or beautiful people . Then, the group of men started to preform the song ????????????????? . "Everybody Rock your body Everybody Rock your body right Backstreet¡¯s back alright Oh my God we¡¯re back again Brothers, sisters, everybody sing We¡¯re gonna bring the vor show you how I¡¯ve gotta question for ya Better answer now Am I original? (yeah) Am I the only one? (yeah) Am I sexual? (yeah) Am I everything you need? You better rock you body now Everybody Rock your body Everybody Rock your body right Backstreet¡¯s back alright Now throw your hands up in the air And wave ¡¯em around like you just don¡¯t care If you wanna party let me hear you yell ¡¯Cause we¡¯ve got it goin¡¯ on again Am I original? (yeah) Am I the only one? (yeah) Am I sexual? (yeah) Am I everything you need? You better rock you body now Everybody Rock your body Everybody Rock your body right Backstreet¡¯s back alright Everybody Rock your body Everybody Rock your body right Backstreet¡¯s back alright Everybody Rock your body Everybody Rock your body right Backstreet¡¯s back alright" Rounds of apuse followed after the song finished . Even during the performance there were some people singing along with them . This boy band called Huskies definitely had a good voice, good voice, and also, a good body . Finally, it was time to vote whether or not the Huskies should move on to the next round . After the Group left the stage, the announcer came back onstage "Wow! What a ?????????????????? performance by the Huskies! Well . . . ITS TIME TO VOTE!!" The voting was held online so that people that where watching the performance at home could also vote . It was decided by majority, and if the performers had more people voting for them to pass rather than against them, then they would also go on onto the next round . The thing that made voting exciting and mysterious was that no one could see how many votes that person got until the very end . The producers of Talent~fest often liked to draw suspense, so they always released the votes for every contestant altogether to stir up everybody watching . It was very climatic every year, some might even say its their FAVORITE part of the WHOLE show! Most of the News reports on Talent~fest only talked about everybody¡¯s results and sometimes, if it was deemed good enough, they would even write a whole article dedicated to one performers show . Authors note: Oh god that was a lot of words to type . . . I think that took me about a whole hour actually, wasn¡¯t really expecting that!! I saw someonement about the shortness of the chapters just after publishingst chapter so I decided to attempt to make them longer once more like I used to . . . Also, back to me being uncreative . . I had no idea what song to use so I searched online "popr boy band songs" and just choose the first one I saw, which was of course, Everybody by the Backstreet Boys! I¡¯ve never heard it before, but I still decided to use it! If you have a better idea for the song please tell me in thements so I could change the song! Tbh I don¡¯t really even know how popr the song "Everybody" is, I was just desperate for a song . Chapter 13 Chapter 13 ¡¯She will be preforming soon . . . I think her act is next after this one . . I don¡¯t really see what¡¯s so amazing about this Talent~fest . . . ¡¯ The CEO was starting to get impatient . So far he had already watched about 32 other contestants preform already even though he only came for Mei and her friend, Ali . "Okay everybody! Next up, we have the PussyCats!! They will be preforming Bad Girls!" With that, the announcer left the Stage Three Attractive girls walked onstage Many whistles were heard all over the crowd . . Than, the girl in the middle started to sing, and the other two followed shortly after . "I guess they know I¡¯m bad (bad) (I got a problem) Shopaholic is what they call ¡¯em My addiction, my prescription Gimme shoes and give me bags How much you want I need ¡¯em bad All them girls be checking my bags While they be jockin¡¯ my swag I guess they know I¡¯m bad (Bad) What a bad little girl I am (I got a problem) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am (I need you to solve it) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am Bad bad bad bad bad bad What a bad little girl I am (I got a problem) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am (I need you to solve it) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am Bad bad bad bad bad bad Need no bargain, need no sale I want the best, I dress me well Love Cavalli dipped in Versace Chick ain¡¯t cheap and everybody knows All them girls be checking my bags While they be jockin¡¯ my swag I guess they know I¡¯m bad (Bad) What a bad little girl I am (I got a problem) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am (I need you to solve it) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am Bad bad bad bad bad bad What a bad little girl I am (I got a problem) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am (I need you to solve it) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am Bad bad bad bad bad bad What a bad little girl I am (I got a problem) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am (I need you to solve it) (bad bad) What a bad little girl I am Bad bad bad bad bad bad" Cheers were heard, and once again, the announcer followed up by telling everyone it was time to vote . And with that, Mei and Ali¡¯s turn wasing up . After all the cheering from the ?????????????????? died down, the announcer went back on stage "Next up, we have the newly formed girl group called ¡¯?????? ????????????¡¯ . They will be preforming Wannabe by the Spice Girls! Give em¡¯ a round of apuse everyone!" The CEO eximed "FINALLY! I WAITED FOREVER! THIS PERFORMANCE BETTER BE GOOD SINCE I WAITED SO LONG!!" The CEOS demonic side that everyone knows him by was starting to kick in . Nobody really liked to wait that long, afterall . . Because of the CEOS sudden outburst, the secretary was frozen . ¡¯Now why does he have it be angry . . . ahh this girl group called "The Angels" aren¡¯t Angels at all! They¡¯re devils for crying out loud! They angered Boss when I¡¯m standing right next to him!! How cruel . . . waahhh . . . ¡¯ The secretary was silently sobbing to himself after he regained hisposure . Chapter 14 Chapter 14 After all the cheering from the PussyCats died down, the announcer went back on stage "Next up, we have the newly formed girl group called ¡¯?????? ????????????¡¯ . They will be preforming ¡¯Wannabe¡¯ by the Spice Girls! Give em¡¯ a round of apuse everybody!!" Many people cheered, but at this point, everyone WAS starting to get a LITTLE tired of all the performers . Only a hand-full out of everyone they watched so far was actually decent or entertaining . After everyone quieted down, the lights on the stage dimmed . Some people could tell that some custodians were bringing somethingrge out onto the stage . This perked some peoples interest, especially since they were getting bored of all the same, boring old acts . They wanted something new, and this looked like it would be it! Then, people could hear the sounds of a piano . Piano enthusiasts could already tell the person ying it was an expert . It was easy for any person who knew how to y the piano realize that this person could be called a ¡¯piano master¡¯ A light on stage lit up above a beautiful woman ying the piano . This person was definitely way more attractive than any of the other contestants so far . Then, another voice could be heard (This song is so long . . ahh . . ) The lights on stage lit up once again revealing another goddess . ¡¯Man both of thesedies are so hot¡¯ was many people¡¯s thoughts when they saw them . "I guess their name ¡¯?????? ????????????¡¯ really suits them!!" "Ha ha ha ha ha Yo, I¡¯ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want So tell me what you want, what you really, really want I¡¯ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want So tell me what you want, what you really, really want I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah If you want my future, forget my past If you wanna get with me, better make it fast Now don¡¯t go wasting my precious time Get your act together we could be just fine I¡¯ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want So tell me what you want, what you really, really want I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends (Gotta get with my friends) Make itst forever, friendship never ends If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give Taking is too easy, but that¡¯s the way it is Oh, what do you think about that Now you know how I feel Say, you can handle my love, are you for real (Are you for real) I won¡¯t be hasty, I¡¯ll give you a try If you really bug me then I¡¯ll say goodbye Yo I¡¯ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want So tell me what you want, what you really, really want I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends" About half way through, the Women ying the piano also started to sing . . "(Gotta get with my friends) Make itst forever, friendship never ends If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give (You¡¯ve got to give) Taking is too easy, but that¡¯s the way it is So, here¡¯s a story from A to Z You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully We got Em in the ce who likes it in your face You got G like MC who likes it on a Easy V doesn¡¯te for free, she¡¯s a realdy And as for me, ha you¡¯ll see m your body down and wind it all around m your body down and wind it all around If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends (Gotta get with my friends) Make itst forever, friendship never ends If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give (You¡¯ve got to give) Taking is too easy, but that¡¯s the way it is If you wanna be my lover You gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta m, m, m, m (make itst forever) m your body down and wind it all around m your body down and wind it all around Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha m your body down and wind it all around m your body down and zigazig ah If you wanna be my lover" The crowd was speechless . There was actually an amazing act tonight, and they got to witness it with their own eyes!! Ahh!! After a long moment, one person started to p . Everyone else present followed after . Many whistles and shouts could be heard . "C-CEO??" The secretary was shocked when all of a sudden he had heard his BIG . BAD . EVIL . SCARY . BOSS . START TO CLAP!!! p???! What??? This act was definitely getting through to the next round . . . no doubt about it!! Chapter 15 Chapter 15 ¡¯The Angels¡¯ performance was definitely a force to be reckoned with! Just after their one show, they had already gained COUNTLESS fans from all over! Mei Koi and Ali Bowed down to the crowd who was cheering for them before walking offstage . "Ahh that was SOO much FUUNNN Mei!! WE MUST do this AGAIN! No way I¡¯m letting you end our team!" Meiughed "Haha don¡¯t worry, I don¡¯t n on ending this anytime soon, atleast . I¡¯ve found that I actually quite enjoy this myself! It¡¯s nice to be away from stress for a while, and honestly, I think we both needed a break and chance to experience the real world . . " "Really? Thanks so much big sis!" "Big sis?" "Well yeah, your acting like a big sis right now . . and I mean . . I¡¯ve always wanted a sister . . not to mention I already see you like a sister figure to me . . I mean, we DID grow up together after-all!" "Well I guess that makes sense . . " Mei smirked "But if your gonna call me big sis, I¡¯m gonna call you Little sis!" "Okay BIG SIS!" "Okay LITTLE SIS!" The twoughed and joked around for a while before Mei Koi was texted by one of her hacker aplices . "New job avable, you need to do it ASAP! The people requesting you will pay big money!" Mei Koi looked at Ali and paused for a moment before saying "Ali, I need to do something real quick, can you back me up and make sure no one sees?" "Of Course . " The air around them became very serious . They were in their work mode, which hugely differed from their normal personality¡¯s . In their business, their was no joking around . If they joked around all the time, they could very easily make huge mistakes that could lead to them being discovered . Mei texted that person back "Okay what do I have to do?" Beep . They replied "They want you to investigate everything about Y corporation and shut it down overnight . " "How much are they paying?" Mei definitely wouldn¡¯t ept this task if they didn¡¯t pay much . . The Y corporation was, afterall, the 2nd bestpany worldwide, just following after the Li corporation . Ding . "They said however much money you want, they will provide . " "Are we sure they can afford my prices??" Mei Koi wanted to make sure that she would actually make a profit out of this "The people hiring you are Li Cooperation themselves . I¡¯m positive that could pay you any amount!" "Good . " Mei Koi definitely felt assured that she would get paid a hefty amount after she finished . Mei Koi pulled out herptop, and within minutes, had managed to dig up all sorts of dirty truths about the Y corporation . The Y cooperation didn¡¯t stand a chance against the Ultimate Hacker X sadly . . "Tell Li Corp . that I want 69 million dors out of this, and I already have all needed information on them . I won¡¯t share this information until I get paid . " In Mei Koi¡¯s mind, 69 million dors was a fair amount . Afterall, Y corporation is the 2nd bestpany in the whole world, and most likely Mei and Ali were the only people alive currently that could cause it to fall overnight in the whole world! Ding . "Right away Boss X!" After a moment of silence . . . Ding! "They willply immediately . They want to know where they should meet up to give you the money . " Mei sighed . If this was a normal day, she would meet up with them immediately . . but . . . . she nced Ali who was standing guard . But she had to stay at Talent~fest and wait for the results to be announced before she could go anywhere . . . ????????????????? . . . Inside of the sectioned area for CEO Tan Li, the secretary was shaking . "B-boss are you sure you want to spend 69 million dors on the hacker?? I-isn¡¯t that TOO MUCH??" The secretary hadn¡¯t even seen a million dors before in his WHOLE LIFE yet his boss was willing to give away 69 MILLION DOLLARS FOR A LADY?? The CEO looked him dead in the eye and said "it¡¯s her reward for doing so well in thepetition . Is there a problem??" The air around them was freezing . "N-no sir, of course it isn¡¯t a problem!" Was what the secretary was forced to say, but secretly in his mind he was shouting "OF COURSE ITS A PROBLEM! THATS 69 MILLION DOLLARS! 69 MILLION DOLLARS!!! YOU CANT JUST CASUALLY THROW 69 MILLION DOLLARS AROUND JUST FOR A REWARD FOR DOING WELL!!!!!" Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Finally, the moment people worldwide were waiting for was about to happen . After Mei and Ali¡¯s performance, there were about 50 more auditions to watch! Now, afterall of the auditions were finished . . . THE RESULTS WOULD BE ANNOUNCED!! The Talent~fest only announced all the people who would be moving on to the next round . Everyone that was watching talent~fest, or who just wanted to see the results, no matter where there were in the world, where counting down 10!! 9!! 8!! 7!! 6!! 5!! 4!! 3!! 2!!! 1!!!!! "Ahem¡ª" The announcer walked onto the stage . "You all will be shocked! I am proud to say that this is one of the best Talent~fest¡¯s we¡¯ve had in a VERY long time!!" "Ladies and gentlemen . . . " "HERE ARE THE RESULTS!!" The results were brodcasted all over the building where Talent~Fest took ce in . The secound any news outlet saw the results they instantly started writing an eye-catching article about it! When people saw the results, they were shocked The announcer decided to read the results out loud for everyone to hear so they could get a better understanding of it . "In first ce, we are proud to announce, is . . . " " EVERYBODY GIVE A BIIGGGGG ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR ???? ??????????!!!" "Please,e on stage, Mei and Ali!" Since they had won and were obviously going to be popr, they had to tell them their names so all of their fans would know what to call them . Everyone looked at the stage entrance excitedly, waiting for their goddesses, Mei and Ali, to arrive! There were several loud gasps that could be heard when ?????? ???????????? finally made their appearance . Everyone knew that the two girls certainly surpassed many other girls with their looks, but since the lights were not fully on, they could only see some of their true beauty before . . Now, with all lights on them, people could only be shocked . Standing there were two absolute beauties wearing hand-made angel wings and aplete white, fluffy skirt dress . The two legit looked like goddesses who descended from Heaven down to Earth! After everyone was done congratting them, Mei and Ali stepped of to the side of the stage so the other top performers coulde on . "In second ce we have the ??????????????????!" They were also weed on stage with several apuses and congrattions, though they weren¡¯t AS popr as Mei and Ali . "And In third ce, we have the ?????????????!!" After all three top contestants went on stage, the announcer said "GIVE ONE MORE ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR ???? ??????????, ???? ??????????????????, ?????? ???? ???????????!!!" Authors note: Talent~fest always only brings the top 3 performers onstage instead of everyone who passed because they liked to give the spotlight to the very best . (and honestly because I couldn¡¯t think of names for anyone else . . I¡¯m wayyy to uncreative!) Okay I guess imma little biased . . after spending so much time writing auditions for the PussyCats and the Huskies, I just HAD to let them get second and third ce . . also I was biased on the top three rankings . . I had to give Mei the top spot cuz she¡¯s my favorite girl, and then I gave PussyCats the second spot because cats are my favorite animal in the whole entire world, and honestly I just favor cats more than dogs . . Chapter 17 Chapter 17 After all the apuse died down, Mei and Ali left the Talent~fest building and headed to their base/home to rx . After all that stress on their voices from singing, they both just needed to take a small break . After walking into the room in which theybeled the ¡¯Peace Room¡¯, Ali started a conversation "0kay, sis . . " She paused "I personally believe that we should pretend to be sisters for our duo, I think it will be really Kuwaiti . . just think about! Two equally beautiful ¡¯Angels¡¯ are sisters! Our fan base will absolutely love it! Plus . . we already basically act like sisters . . . I mean we DID grow up together . . . " Ali was starting to ramble . She was to embarrassed to t out say to Mei that she really cherished her friendship with Mei, and that Mei was the only person she ever actually considered family, and one of the main reasons why she actually wanted to sign up for Talent~fest was so she could actually propose her idea of bing official sisters with Mei . . Ali felt that the top 2 hackers in the world shouldn¡¯t really act SO immature . . . ¡¯Wait . . ¡¯ with that thought, Ali remembered something . Without waiting for Mei Koi¡¯s opinion on the whole matter she just proposed, Ali said "After we meet up with the people from Lin Cooperation, W-we should go get ice cream to celebrate our sess today . . A-and . . " Ali paused "a-and maybe after that we could go to the adoption agency ce and register ourselves . . a-as sisters . . . " thest part of what she said was quiet, but Mei still managed to hear what she said . Mei smiled and said "Sure thing . I think it would be great if we could celebrate" (especially with ice cream . . . Yum!) Mei Koi paused . She wanted to tease Ali a little . . after all, she WAS going to be her little sister . . "And I think it would be great to register us as real siblings . . !" After a couple of seconds of pin-drop silence, a loud, irritating noise was heard . "AHHHHHHHHHHHH YES YES YESSS YAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" After Ali calmed down a little, Mei spoke "Now lets go meet up with those people paying us good money! Heck, we could even pay for the ice cream with those rich bastards money!!" Ali smiled and said "Of course, Big Sister Mei Mei!" That irritated Mei a little . . "Do you really have to give me a nickname??" Ali had such a big smile on her face as she replied "Of course I HAVE to, Big Sister Mei Mei!! Isn¡¯t it a humans¡¯ JOB to annoy their siblings??" Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Whenever Mei and Ali were given missions, they always met up with their client themselves to disclose all the juicy information and collect the money owed . They didn¡¯t want to give anyone all the information they had gathered, for that person to just leak out all the information for free . In their line of business, you couldn¡¯t really trust anyone . . But whenever Sota Lin had to partake in any events like these, he always sent his secretaries or employees to deal with it themselves . Except this time, he was ACTUALLY going to go HIMSELF along with his main secretary . . The reason why?? Well apparently, it was so he could Spend some time with the hacker ¡¯Mei¡¯ himself, instead of just observing her . Yeah, that was crazy . . . Well anyway, Mei and Ali had just drove up to the spot on their motorcycles wearing some man disguises and started waiting for her employers to show up . The two of them had always worn male disguises whenever they met with anybody . It would lead to people believing that they were males, which was great for them . It gave the police one less opportunity to track them down . They hadn¡¯t let anyone see their true self before, and they weren¡¯t nning to change that any time soon, hence the disguises . A cold voice from behind them startled Mei and Ali "You¡¯ve finally arrived, Mr . X . . " he looked directly at Mei when he said that, but then he nces over at Ali who was right besides Mei . ¡¯Why are they wearing MALE disguises? And I¡¯m assuming that since ¡¯Mei¡¯ is the hacker X . . than this must be the ¡¯Ali¡¯ that preformed with ¡¯Mei¡¯ today . . ¡¯ "And you are?" Sora Lin didn¡¯t know why this Hacker X would bring an aplice with her . "Allow me to introduce you to my partner, Hacker X" Mei Koi and Ali both ran the Hacker X¡¯s ount together; which most people didn¡¯t know . Most people thought that Hacker X was just a one man team, since whenever they were chased by police on live broadcast, there had only really ever been 1 person that the police chased the whole time . "O-okay, then . " The CEO, Sora Lin, called his secretary over . The secretary was holding a brief case as he walked over . "I believe you have all the information I am paying for?" While saying this, Sora took the briefcase from his secretary . "Of course, Mr . Lin . It¡¯s right here" after she said that she pulled a hard drive out of her pocket and waved it in the air . "I¡¯m going to need to check and make sure the money is all there first, is that alright sir?" "Of course, Go ahead . " The CEO was watching her every move and studying her . After making sure the money was all there, Ali replied "Okay its all here, here¡¯s the hard drive then . Goodbye . " With that, she handed Sora the hard drive and turned to leave, in which Ali followed Suddenly, Sora¡¯s voice was heard again . "Wait . I would like to discuss business with you . I will pay you a hefty amount if you two corporate with me . " He had just finally managed to meet this legendary Hacker X in person, so he wasn¡¯t going to let her go THAT easily! Authors note: I¡¯m so sorry, I meant to upload this as soon as I got home from school, but my mom rushed me out of the house as soon as I got home to go sell girlscout cookies . . . I just got home . . haha! Also I didn¡¯t like the name I had for the CEO so I just changed it to Sora . . Also tomorrow¡¯s my mother¡¯s birthday so I probably won¡¯t be able to upload but I¡¯ll try! Thanks for reading! Chapter 19 Chapter 19 "Wait . I would like to discuss business with you . I will pay you a hefty amount if you two corporate with me . " He had just finally managed to meet this legendary Hacker X in person, so he wasn¡¯t going to let her go THAT easily! Mei turned around sharply and faced him "What kind of business?" The two girls would never turn down a job opportunity that would pay a lot . This was to good of an opportunity for the two of them to miss! "I would like for the two of you to work at mypany as real employees and join our hacking force . " Mei hesitated . She was okay with doing one time jobs for people, but having a full time job devoted to one person?? If she was actually hired, then both of them wouldn¡¯t be able to take on jobs from other people . The only way in hell she would actually settle on just one job was if she was payed about 10x her normal price, which on its own, it was still a very hefty amount! Seeing the hesitation on Mei¡¯s face, Sora panicked and used his King Card . . this very card could most likely very easily convince the two into joining hispany . "I also have another business proposition . " ¡¯Another proposition? What else could he want of us besides us working for him??¡¯ Mei was trying to figure out what this ¡¯business proposition¡¯ could be . After waiting about half a minute, there was still no response from Sora . Mei and Ali were starting to get impatient . . especially Ally . . she just wanted to hurry up and be Mei¡¯s official sister, AND get some ice team . "I know who the two of you really are . . if you don¡¯t cooporate with me and join mypany I WILL expose the two of you to the public!" WHAT?!?!?? How is that possible?? No way . . it¡¯s IMPOSSIBLE he knows who we REALLY are . . maybe he¡¯s just bluffing . . ? Mei Koi was trying to convince herself that this wasn¡¯t real . . "Really now?? I¡¯d like to know who you think the two of us are!" Mei Koi was acting all high and mighty Sora hesitated ¡¯should I really do this? It might make her hate me if I force her to work for me . . NO . . I MUST do this!!¡¯ "Well, first of all . . " He looked at the two ¡¯boys¡¯ and said "First of all, I know you two are not actually boys, INSTEAD, you are GIRLS" ¡¯No way . . . ¡¯ Mei Koi¡¯s face started turned white as she turned to Ali "Get out of here and wait for me at the motorcycle . . I¡¯ll meet up with you soon . . " Ali couldn¡¯t believe it "Are you sure . . ? This matter includes both of us . . " "Yes . Now get out of here already . " Mei Koi¡¯s voice contained a hint of coldness After Ali hesitantly left, Mei turned to face Sora "And . . . ? Just saying we aren¡¯t males isn¡¯t enough proof that you know who WE are . . " "Also, I know that the two of you go by the name ¡¯Mei¡¯ and ¡¯Ali¡¯ in the real world . . " ¡¯What??¡¯ "And finally, I know you two were the group called ?????? ???????????? today for the Talent~fest . . " ¡¯Wow . . ?! This guy actually managed to find out such details about us?? Interesting . . . ¡¯ Sora was nervous . Nervous she would hate him . Nervous she would curse him out for threatening her . And nervous for forcing her to join hispany . . . He was expecting her to flee, yell at him, or hit him . . but instead he heardughter "hah . . hahaha . . . hhaHAHAHA . . . . !!" Mei Koi wasughing so hard as she said "Well, you are certainly interesting . . . Of course, I would LOVE to join yourpany . . let¡¯s discuss details right away!! it¡¯s been a while since ANYONE managed to find out anything about us! You might think you put me in a challenging position . . but actually, I LOVEEE CHALLENGES!!! Haha!" Chapter 20 Chapter 20 ¡¯What?? What did she say?? She LOVES challenges?? WHAT KIND IF PERSON LOVED CHALLENGES???¡¯ Sora¡¯s mind was inplete shambles "Hello? You there? Do you want me to work for you or not??" This snapped Sora out of his daze . . no way was he giving up this opportunity! "Of course . . . h h h h h" Sora gave Mei all the nessacary details that she needed to know After he was finished, Mei Koi signed the contract he presented her, took her money, smiled to him, said goodbye, and walked away . Her actions froze Sora again for a minute, reying the scene where she smiled at him in his head over and over again ¡¯Wait . . . ¡¯ A sudden realization hit Sora ¡¯I-I think . . I¡¯m in love with her . . ?!?¡¯ Sora had actually been thinking about this for a while . . . why else would he be obsessed with her? why else would he want to watch her every move? why else would he be incredibly soft and nice to her? why else would he cheer for her great performance at Talent~fest? why else would he be willing to give up anything for her to work for him? Why else would he be willing to give up everything else just to be able to be around her??? He didn¡¯t know when exactly it happened, but he KNEW he had fallen for her . . There was no use in being stubborn over it anymore . . he was willing to admit his feelings for her now and not make up a stupid excuse . . . . . . Watching Mei Koi¡¯s retreating figure, Sora smiled to himself and said quietly "I love you . . " This was a very sweet and romantic moment, but the thing was HOW DID CEO LIN FORGET ABOUT HIS POOR LITTLE SECRETARY THAT WAS STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM??? The secretary felt like he was about to die . . ¡¯w-what did CEO just say?? I love you?? He even smiled??????¡¯ This was definitely a secret the secretary would keep with him till his death . . . Besides, it¡¯s not like even if the secretary told everyone what he had just witnessed they would believe him! They would all deem him crazy for saying such things! ???????? ????? ?????? After walking for around a minute, Mei finally reached Ali . They had parked their motorcycle in an undisclosed location so whoever hired them wouldn¡¯t be able to follow them back to their base . "Mei! You had me worried sick! When you told me to leave, you acted as if you were going to fight a war!! Do you have any idea how scary that is??!?" Ali was obviously worried . . Mei ignored her and got onto the motorcycle Seeing that Ali didn¡¯t move from her spot, Mei frowned and said "Are youing or not?? When we get to the ice cream ce, we¡¯ll talk there!" "I- Okay . . !" Ali eagerly jumped onto the back of the motorcycle . The mention of ice cream had distracted her from her thoughts . . . at least for a little while . . Finally, after changing out of their male disguises and going into their normal attire, they arrived at the ice cream ce While sitting down at a table, Mei said "What type of ice cream do you want? I¡¯m getting a chocte cone! How about you?!?" "Well . . hmm . . let me think . . " Ali paused "A vani cone of course!! Is that even a question?!?????!" This had eased the atmosphere around them, and released them from their previously serious attitude After getting the ice cream, they finally started to discuss what Mei Koi had promised "Sssooooooo . . . . . what exactly happened back their, Big Sister Mei Mei??!?" "Jeez . . I told you not to call me that . . . " "No way! I¡¯m gonna call you Big Sister Mei Mei for the rest of our lives!!! I¡¯m not gonna give up on that!!" "Fineee . . . whatever, but seriously . . " The atmosphere tightened a little as Ali sat up straight "That man, Sora, he does indeed know our true identities . . " "Really??? How did he figure that out?!?!!" Ali was amazed . . someone ACTUALLY managed to figure out who THEY were!! That was seriously amazing! Just like Mei, Ali wasn¡¯t scared or angry, instead, she was excited . It had been a really long time since they had anything interesting happen to them, so of course someone finding out their identities would make them excited!! Y "And . . " Mei Koi continued "And . . I signed us both up to work for him!" "Really, that¡¯s amazing!!" Ali was overjoyed! Maybe some more interesting things will finally be happening to them!! "I know, right!!" And just like that, the two of them immediately slipped back into their excited aura as they continued eating their ice cream and chatted light-heartedly . . Authors note: I wrote a lot more for today¡¯s chapter than normal . . ! Also as I¡¯m not to good with emotions, I have no idea whatsoever how people really behave or act to people close to them . . Also I changed to CEO¡¯S name to Sora Lin instead of Tan Lin because I think the name Tan sounds like an old man¡¯s name . . Please leave ament telling me down below if I should change anything or change how all the characters behave . . in general, please just tell anything you think about my writing style and the storyline so far, it can be criticism or positive, just something you think I need it improve . . I¡¯m only 12, afterall, and since I¡¯m uncreative, this stuff is really hard especially since I haven¡¯t really learned how to write a story . . Well goodbye and thanks for reading!! Chapter 21 Chapter 21 After chatting for a while, Mei and Ali noticed a group of girls staring at them They decided to ignore it, deciding that those girls just wanted to admire their beauty The whole time Mei and Ali were joking around and talking light-heartedly, the girls were staring at them . It continued like this for a while until one of the girls walked over to their table and said almost in a whisper "U-uhm . . e-excuse me . . . . b-but are y-you two . . . M-Mei a-and A-Ali??" It was obvious she was tense and nervous, so to lighten the atmosphere, Mei spoke in a tone as if the two had known each other for a while already "Hey, what¡¯s up?? Yeah, I¡¯m Mei, and she¡¯s Ali . . sooo, what¡¯s your name . . ?" "O-oh . . I¡¯m Ariana . . . but my friends call me Ari!!" The girl that approached them started to act less awkward as she spoke "Well, anyways . . I saw your guys preformance . . and you two are really good!" She paused "And . . I was wondering if I could . . have an autograph . . please?" Oh . That was it? That¡¯s all she wanted? Well, of course the two of them would sign their autographs for this lovely girl . . "Of course! Here . . " Mei Koi took the notebook and pen Ari was holding and signed her name, then passed it to Ali to sign Seeing that they were okay with giving them autographs, Ari turned and faced her best friends . She nodded at them, giving them the signal that it was okay toe over The girls eagerly walked up to Mei and Ali and had them sign THEIR notebooks to After signing all the notebooks, Mei realized something ¡¯Wait . . this is technically the first autograph we have ever given any of our newly formed fans . . why not take a photo to cherish the moment??¡¯ Mei spoke up "Can all of you let me see your phones real quick??" A few of the girls paused a moment, wondering why in the world Mei would want their phones before finally deciding to hand them over "What are you gonna do with our phones??" One girl spoke up and asked the question everyone was thinking Mei Koi replied like she was stating the obvious "I¡¯m going to some pictures of course?? What else would I do with your phones??" It¡¯s not like she was gonna steal their phones . . . "R-really?? You¡¯ll really take pictures with us??" The girls really couldn¡¯t believe it "Yeah! Everybody,e here, and let¡¯s get some shots!!" The girls rushed over next to Mei and fought a little over who would stand next to who . While the girls were getting in their positions, Mei walked up to someone near them and asked that person to take pictures of everyone together The person agreed to help out of good will No way did that person expect to take so many pictures with so many different phones! Now that was crazy! Finally, after getting photograph on each phone, the helper though that was it, but Mei handed her phone to their temporary assistant "Finally, could you please take onest photo on my phone?" "Of course . . " the photographer (let¡¯s just call him bob for know) was starting to get tired, atleast this was thest one!! This photo would be the most special out of all the photos taken today It would be the first picture Mei and Ali uploaded on their social media tform "Okay, girls, are we all ready?!?!!" Ali practically yelled out Several nods could been seen along with some yes¡¯s . "Okay than, Bob, were ready!" Ali said After she said that, ¡¯Bob¡¯ took the picture He handed Mei her phone back, she said thank you, and after he left, Mei and Ali proceeded to return the rest of the phones back to their owners "Well, thank you girls for being so polite, and for letting us give you all our first autographs ever!" "No, thank you! You two are such amazing people!! Your nice, pretty, along with alot of other stuff! From now on, we will be your official fan group, and we will continue to support you for the rest of our lives! Right, guys??" After she said that, she turned to look at her friends, and received several nods and agreements "W-well . . I mean . . IF you will allow us to start your OFFICAL fan group . . " as she said that, the girls voice got quieter and quieter . Mei could tell the girl was starting to get nervous again "Of course you girls can! It would be an honor for such nice people to start our fan group!" Authors note: today¡¯s chapter was 729 words because I just couldn¡¯t think of how to end it . . I have a lot of trouble with thinking of how to end chapters . . so it took me a while to conclude this chapter . . Not to mention this week was overwhelming, I had 3 HUGE projects I needed to do, Girl Scouts, and as usual, ALOT of homework Like today I just got home 5 minutes ago and now I¡¯m gonna leave in about 30 minutes to go to taeqwando! Well, as usual, thank you so much for reading!! Chapter 22 Chapter 22 After all the fan girls had left, Mei and Ali payed for their icecream and left to head towards their new location The whole time Mei and Ali were on their motorcycle, Ali was in a bubbly mood She was so excited to finally be able to sign the papers that would legally make her and Mei sisters! "Sooo . . . " the two started talking about random stuff just to talk At least, it WAS just talking to talk at first . . But then their conversation got a little more interesting when Ali mentioned something that was always on the back of her mind "Mei, will we ever be able to find lovers?" "Mhm . . . " Mei didn¡¯t respond, so Ali continued talking "Well, I mean we ARE both beauties . . it would be easy for us to find romance, I¡¯m sure a lot of guys woulde crawling to are knees and beg for our love . . but . . . . " "But we can¡¯t" Mei Koi said "Well, I know . . " Ali took a deep breath "I know we can¡¯t find romance . . since we are hacker Z and all . . . and we can¡¯t risk someone finding out about our identities . . . and we don¡¯t really have time to love, with our identities as hackers and all . . " "But don¡¯t you feel lonely sometimes? Don¡¯t you also want a lover to fill that gap in your heart?? I can¡¯t be the only one who WANTS to experience romance . . tell me the truth, Mei . . don¡¯t you want romance??" Mei paused for a moment before she said "Fine . Say that I DO want romance . Even if I WANT romance, who could even date us? It¡¯s to risky to date someone who doesn¡¯t know our identities, so the only possible way for us to be able to date safely would be to date someone who already knows our identities who is trustworthy enough to keep our secret . . . that basically eliminates everyone on earth . . It¡¯s impossible for us to date, Ali" "Notpletely impossible . . " murmured Ali Mei heard this, and said "really? It¡¯s notpletely impossible, huh? Then tell me ONE person who qualifies . . !" Ali thought back to earlier that day, and said "how about that CEO guy?? Doesn¡¯t he know our identities, AND we are going to work for him soon? That will give us PLENTY of time to form some rtionships . . . AND he¡¯s filthy rich . . I mean COME ON! He¡¯s got good looks, good money, a good job, AND a SEXY body!! He¡¯s everything perfect in one package for crying out loud!!!" Ali started off by replying smugly, with a know it all attitude, but towards the end, she was so energetic and enthusiastic "Uhmm . . . " Mei didn¡¯t know how to reply to that ¡¯She ACTUALLY proved ME wrong!! Oh god I already know she¡¯s gonna start teasing me about being wrong . . ¡¯ Mei started to try ande up with a bunch of excuses until she realized something They were about a minute away from the ce that would make them official sisters! ¡¯Hah! I bet this will surely distract her from teasing me!¡¯ And with that thought, Mei koi officiallyunched her n into action as she got closer to the ce "Look! I can see the building from here Ali!" Ali instantly forgot all about how much she was going to tease Mei and instead shouted "REALLY?? WHERE?? OH I SEE IT NOW!!!!!" Ali was practically screaming at this point, but it didn¡¯t bother Mei Koi as she thought ¡¯Haha, n sess!! So what if she¡¯s screaming? It¡¯s way better than her nagging at me for being wrong!!" Authors note: ahh so sorry it took so long to upload!! In school, almost every single ss gave me a huge test or presentation! If a ss didn¡¯t assign me any of those it gave me ALOT of homework everyday to finish which was due the next day . . the past while was really stressful for me, along with many other things like girl scouts and taeqwondo . I feel really bad because every time I went on my phone and checked how many people added this story to their library, it kept growing and growing! Before I took a break there were about 290 people who added this to their library, and now, when I checked it, it said that there were 500 people now!! I have no idea how I keep growing, but since stuff has sort of calmed down at school, I decided i NEEDED to make a chapter today, so I did! Currently at school I only have ONE major assignment due really soon, and I only have 7 pages of homework due tomorrow! I already finished like 3 pages, and I¡¯m about to finish the rest up now! Ahh it feels nice to rx and take a break from so much school once in a while!! Well, anyways, I¡¯ll try to upload again real soon, but I can¡¯t make any promises!! Chapter 23 Please help us improve Trinity Audio Chapter 23 @@ Just wanted to say I created a new story called Satan¡¯s ¡¯Reincarnation¡¯ where Satan himself is turned into a human and was brought to earth with no known way to get held to Hell! basically it¡¯s about Satan struggling with having to deal with all these ¡¯annoying¡¯ humans! I sorta wanted to make him suffer a little, idk . . I tried to make it funny sort of . . I don¡¯t know if I seeded or not, but I just uploaded the first chapter of it! If you could read it, that would be great! If you do decide to read it, please tell me . . Did I do a good job making it at least a little funny? I¡¯m trying to convince myself that I¡¯m at least sort of funny . . Even if you don¡¯t find it funny, did you think it was interesting or decent? I¡¯m trying to expand my writing skills sort of, and the current plot for this story here has me stuck, so when I randomly thought of an idea on the bus, I instantly started writing about it! (I actually came up with the idea for this story the same way! I was on my school bus, bored out of my mind, and then I randomly thought of a story!!) I don¡¯t really know much about my own new story, just the general idea of it, so it¡¯s kinda a crazy situation on my part, haha! I¡¯m also in the middle of writing a new chapter for this story, so it shoulde out sometime soon (hopefully)!!!!! Well, bye! That¡¯s all I had to say, and I would greatly appreciate it if any of you checked it out and told me what you think is far! @@ Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Ali watched excitedly as they pulled up to their location "Here it is!" Mei looked at Ali, who was bubbling with excitement "Well, What are you waiting for?? Let¡¯s hurry up and go in!" And so they walked into the building and signed the papers that made them official siblings Ali and Mei walked out of the building, chatting . When they got back to their base, they updated their status on their weibos "Official sisters- Mei and Ali" This news excited some fans, though Mei and Ali had just started out their career, so they didn¡¯t have that strong of a fan base yet At their base, the two sisters were taking some more about random stuff, when ¡¯Ding¡ª¡¯ Mei¡¯s phone received a notification She had received a text message that read ¡¯You start working tomorrow at (address)¡¯ "Oooh . . a message! Who¡¯s it from, Mei?" "Our new boss, Mr . Sora Lin . . " "Oooohhhhh . . . . Soorrraaaa Liiinnnnn . . . your potential love candidate, right . . ?!??" Ali definitely shipped the two of them together Though, Ali DID do a background check on Sora Lin and hispany first, in a quick but very thorough way Sora Lin was very lucky that Ali didn¡¯t find anything suspicious about him, OR hispany . . If she or Mei DID discover some dark secret of his, (besides using hackers to destroypany rivals . . ) they most likely would share it to the world, not work with him, and they would find some way for them to silence him from telling the truth . . . But for now, Sora was safe . They did it discover anything about him . . "No! I already told you that . . that it¡¯s impossible for us to find love!!" Mei had hesitated at thest part "Well . . . remembeerrrr? There WAS an exception to this rule of yours . . AKA SORA LIN . . !" ¡¯Ughh . . great, now we¡¯re back to talking about how I was wrong . . . ¡¯ Mei got a headache from all of what¡¯s going on After chatting (and teasing) for a while, it becamete at night "Time to sleep, Ali . . . " Mei wanted to get away from the topic before, but Ali didnt look like she wanted to sleep anytime soon, so Mei said "Look, we can continue talking about it tomorrow . . but we also have to work tomorrow, so we should get some good night sleep . . . " Finally, Ali agreed to go to sleep now . . "Fine . . BUT we WILL finish discussing our previous topic, no matter WHAT . . . !" Mei sighed "Fine, Fine . . . lets just go to sleep now . . . " And so they went to bed, dreaming about different things . . . . Mei dreamed that Ali was teasing her over and over again about being wrong, so it was sort of a nightmare, And Ali had a dream that her ship (Mei and Sora) woulde true in the near future! Authors note: Edit: don¡¯t worry, even if I don¡¯t upload for a little while, I¡¯m never going to end this novel, unless I specifically say that I¡¯m ending it! I¡¯m pretty busy most of the time, so I don¡¯t have much time left to write! I hope you all bear with me and keep reading this novel! Thanks for reading and bye!! Chapter 25 Chapter 25 "Good morning!" Ali eximed as she jumped on top of Mei "Ughhh . . . . . did you HAVE to jump on me??" Mei was clearly NOT a morning person . . "Sorry, I¡¯m just so excited! We¡¯re actually gonna get out and work somewhere! This is the first REAL job we¡¯ve ever had!!" "I know . . . but STILL, that doesn¡¯t give you the right to JUMP ON ME . . . !" Sleepily, Mei got up and walked towards one of theirputers, logged into it, went to her main hacker site where she received tasks from, and posted something Hacker X: No more requests from today onward, until future notice, will be epted . Mei turned to Ali, and said "there . Now everyone knows that we won¡¯t do any more small jobs currently . . " "Yeah, Yeah . . . Lets get ready already!!" Ali was overflowing with excitement As they continued to chat, they both got ready and left for their new jobs together . . When they arrived (in their male disguises) they approached the front gate/door There where a couple guards at the entrance, in order to prevent unwanted people from entering One of the guards spoke in a deep voice, with a hint of an ent "Identification, please . " Oh sh*t . . The CEO Sora Lin forgot to give them passes/identification to enter . . "We don¡¯t have ID¡¯s . . we were just hire-" They were interrupted by another guard "No identification, no entry . Scram!" The guard practically yelled "Bu-" Ali tried to reason with the guard "Leave immediately or else we will resort to force!" The guard obviously wouldn¡¯t budge "Fine . . we will be back, though . . " Even though the two of them could probably easily take down the guards, they didn¡¯t really feel like they wanted to deal with unnecessary/unimportant people . . . Mei and Ali drove to a nearby Inte cafe, went inside, and sat down (after paying, of course) "Here, let me handle it . . " Mei wanted to do the major part, yet Ali still wanted to do something, so she spoke "Fine then, but I¡¯ll create two ID¡¯s for us, using thepany¡¯s format, of course!" "Sure, Okay . . " then, Mei had an interesting idea "Race ya? Whoever finishes their task first is the winner and the loser-" Mei was cut off by Ali "And the loser should buy the winner a treat! Or . . " Ali smirked "Or, the loser could do whatever the winner wants, like maybe the loser could be the winners personal ve for a day!" "Your so on!" Ali was ready for some fun She then got someone to watch the two of them, so that they would know who the campion of their battle really was "In 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 we begin!!" Mei and Ali both turned to face theirputer, and their fingers were both practically dancing on the keyboard A lot of tapping sounds could be heard, and not even 2 minutester, they both finished, almost simultaneously Mei turned to look at Ali, and said "there . I contacted the CEO and informed him of the situation" "And I have created our ID¡¯s!" After saying this, Ali approached the printer, got their new ID¡¯s,mented them, and sat back down next to Mei "Soo . . " Mei turned to their spectator "Who finished first??" Authors note: Today, ever since I woke up, I had to prepare for someone¡¯s wedding, and then I had to go to someplete strangers wedding . I woke up at 10:00 am, then strait away got ready, put on a dress, had my hair professionally styled and curled, and then I went to the wedding . . Currently, it¡¯s 10:00 pm . . I actually stayed at some strangers wedding for an entire day!! I was so bored that I was doing anything interesting on my phone, and I decided to check my recent chaptersments, and I decided to start writing a new chapter! Basically, my boredom led me to create a new chapter (I¡¯m actually still at the wedding . . I wish I could leave already . . !) Anyways, thanks so much for reading, and I hope you enjoyed!! Chapter 26 Chapter 26 "Soo . . " Mei turned to their spectator She stared at the spectator, and asked "Who finished first??" Silence . There was pure silence for a little bit in their area, as the spectator tried toprehend what in the world just happened, while Mei and Ali stared at him expectantly, waiting for him to tell them who won . . The man finally broke the silence when he said "uhhmm . . . . I think it was . . . . " He paused and looked at the two boys staring at him intently (Incase you forgot, Mei and Ali are in their male disguises . . ) "Well, who was it??" Ali couldn¡¯t wait any longer "Umm . . . I think it was a tie . . ?" This was his final answer "Ughh . . really . . ?" This time it was Mei who responded "Whatever . . thanks for being a spectator for us . . . " And with that, the two of them left and got on their motorcycle On the way back to their new job, they talked about the result of their match "I can¡¯t believe it was a tie! I guess you¡¯ve caught up to my level, Ali!" Ali sort of blushed, and said "well . . I practiced a lot on my own . . I wanted to surprise you with my skills . . so did it work??" Mei smiled and said "Yes, you surprised me . . . good job!" "Hehe . . soon I¡¯ll be even better than you! Watch out, because I¡¯ming for you!!" The two of them continued to joke andugh until they arrived at their location When they pulled up to the gate, unlike before, there were different guards there Ali got off the motorcycle and asked a guard "What happened to the other guards that were here before you . . ?" The guard, as calmly as ever, replied "They were fired for disrespecting you two . " Ali and Mei where both shocked . . They didn¡¯t expect that they would actually be FIRED . . Mei thought to herself ¡¯ok, yeah, we were disrespected . . . but why would CEO Sora fire some of his bodyguards just for us . . ?¡¯ Truth was, if she were to ask Sora, he wouldn¡¯t know the answer himself . . He just had the urge to fire the guards after he heard what happened from Mei . . . "So . . here are our ID¡¯s . . " Ali said, and interrupted Mei¡¯s train of thought The guard looked at the ID¡¯s, and replied "There is no need for ID¡¯s . Both of you are honored employees here, and Sir Boss instructed me to tell you two that you will be living in Sir Boss¡¯s house . . " "WHAT . . ?!!" Mei and Ali both practically yelled Chapter 27 Chapter 27 "So . . here are our ID¡¯s . . " Ali said, and interrupted Mei¡¯s train of thought The guard looked at the ID¡¯s, and replied "There is no need for ID¡¯s . Both of you are honored employees here, and Sir Boss instructed me to tell you two that you will be living in Sir Boss¡¯s house . . " "WHAT . . ?!!" Mei and Ali both practically yelled "Please, follow me this way to your new workces . " And so, Mei and Ali followed the guard to their new work area Mei noticed that they went all the way up to the very top floor ¡¯Why are we on the top floor?? Isn¡¯t that only reserved for the very top of all people, like CEO Sora, for example??¡¯ Mei was trying to piece together their situation Ali didn¡¯t pay mind to anything, she was busy looking around and admiring the top floor . . "And here are your workces . " The guard announced, to which Mei and Ali looked at the office in-front of them ¡¯What?? What the heck is going on here?!?!!?¡¯ Mei was deathly confused They were obviously in front of Sora¡¯s office It even had his namete on top of the door for crying out loud! Not to mention how extravagantly decorated it was . . "Umm . . excuse me, but WHERE exactly are our offices??" Mei wanted to get to the bottom of this whole thing The guard turned around and faced the office directly across from Sora¡¯s office, and said in a calm voice "This is Ali¡¯s office . . " the guard turned around again and faced Sora¡¯s own office, and said "And Ms . Mei will be staying in Sir Boss¡¯s office temporarily . . " this time, the guards voice wasn¡¯t AS calm as it was before when talking about Ali¡¯s office quarters . . "WHAT??!?! Why?!?!???! Why don¡¯t I get my own office, like Ali?? This ce is MASSIVE! There has to be many other ces I could work at!!" Everything up to this point was confusing Mei, and just now basically made her brain explode "Ahem . Sir boss said that you would stay with him for a while, at least temporarily, because there are no avable ¡¯high-ss¡¯ offices . . He said that he would prefer you to stay with him than be with the other ¡¯normal¡¯ employees . " This time, it was definitely obvious that the guard was losing hisposure little by little I mean, who could really me him?? His boss pretty much hated or despised every human on earth, and yet his cold, arrogant boss actually allowed someone to work in his office, and to top it off, it was a girl!!! This was obviously not amon urrence, so no one could really me the guard for losing his cool a little ¡¯What??! If there are no other so called ¡¯high-ss¡¯ offices avable, why doesn¡¯t he just let me stay with Ali??! We¡¯ve obviously worked together for a long time now, and we get along excellently! Something just doesn¡¯t make sense!!¡¯ Mei¡¯s brain has definitely exploded at that point . . ! Chapter 28 Chapter 28 ¡¯What??! If there are no other so called ¡¯high-ss¡¯ offices avable, why doesn¡¯t he just let me stay with Ali??! We¡¯ve obviously worked together for a long time now, and we get along excellently! Something just doesn¡¯t make sense!!¡¯ Mei¡¯s brain has definitely exploded at that point . . ! "If you are unsatisfied about your ce of work, you can talk to Sir Boss about it . " The guard replied, this time, his voice was going back to normal "But right now Sir Boss has instructed me to take you to your eatery ce . " ¡¯Eatery ce? Does he mean the cafeteria . . ?¡¯ Mei was still confused, while Ali looked like she didn¡¯t give a care in the world Seeing the confused look on Mei¡¯s face, the guard said "You two have a separate eating ce than the rest of the employees, as requested by Sir Boss . Now, please follow me this way . " He led them to a room that was facing their offices sideways . It looked pretty well decorated, and it definitely looked new "There will be waiters out in a moment, but after you finish eating you both have to report to your workces and start your jobs . " And with that, the bodyguard walked out of Mei and Ali¡¯s personal eatery . After sitting down, Mei looked at Ali, who looked like she was about to explode with gossip! "Sooo~~~ You get to work with Sora!! Hehe . . . " Ali was definitely shipping the two of them "So?? The bodyguard even said it was because there were no other rooms" Mei was definitely denying her own thoughts "Buuttttt . . . don¡¯t you find it weird?? I mean, how can ALL the so called ¡¯high-ss¡¯ offices be full! There¡¯s no way! If you hadn¡¯t noticed, this ce is MASSIVE!!" Ali was trying to make Mei admit that something WAS up Mei didn¡¯t want to admit it, but something was DEFINITELY happening . . But why, why the question Why would CEO Sora do so much for them, and why was he letting Mei work in HIS office, and why would he let both of them actually LIVE with him?? "Ahem . What would you two like to eat?" The waiter interrupted their train of thoughts "Oh, I would like a . . " And so both of them ordered their food, and the waiter left "Okay, now that the waiter is gone, let¡¯s continue our previous topic!" Ali definitely wasn¡¯t gonna give up on this issue ¡¯Ugh . . I better hurry up and eat so I can leave this topic . . but then I would actually be in Sora¡¯s office, most likely with him . . . ¡¯ Mei looked at Ali ¡¯Now which option would be better . . . ?¡¯ Chapter 29 Chapter 29 "Okay, now that the waiter is gone, let¡¯s continue our previous topic!" Ali definitely wasn¡¯t gonna give up on this issue ¡¯Ugh . . I better hurry up and eat so I can leave this topic . . but then I would actually be in Sora¡¯s office, most likely WITH him THERE . . . ¡¯ Mei looked at Ali ¡¯Now which option would be better . . . ?¡¯ "Soo . . . about us being idols . . " Ali was the first one to speak Mei had actually been thinking about this recently, and said "I¡¯ve been thinking about that, and I believe that since we will soon life with Sora, we can ask his permission to record videos in a music room of his, then upload them to our wechats . . . " Mei paused, looked at Ali strait in the eye, and said "you do realize that since we now have an official job, we might not have much time to be idols . . " Mei was worried about this, because she knew how much Ali wanted to do both of these things "Yeah, I realized that . . BUT I¡¯m perfectly fine with that! As long as we try our best to do these things, it won¡¯t matter how much time we have!" Ali replies to Mei with what she had been practicing in her head to tell herself that nothing was wrong "Okay . . if you say so . . " Mei got up to leave when the waitress walked over to them and took care of the tes "But¡ª" Ali got a mischievous grin on her face "You¡¯ll be the one to request about the music room to Mr . Sora . . " Ali let out a smallugh "Why? Why should I have to be the one who asks him? Why can¡¯t you do it instead?" Mei wanted justice . . Ever since Ali and Mei met Sora Lin, Ali had been teasing her about their rtionship Ali had prepared for Mei to ask why, so she smoothly replied "it makes more sense for you to do it . After all, you will be staying in his office, and even living with him, so you will get a lot closer to him than I will, who¡¯s only staying at his house, and nothing else . " "Fine . " Mei couldn¡¯t think of anything to say to argue back, so she left and started heading to ¡¯her¡¯ office . . "Wait up!!" Ali called out and ran to catch up with Mei "What?" Mei asked "Please ask CEO Sora about the music room today, and if not today than really soon please? I don¡¯t want to make our newly formed fans wait to long!" Ali was set on treating their fans right . . Mei sighed, and said "Fine . . . Whatever . . " Authors note: Sorry I haven¡¯t uploaded! I was busy during Easter, and then right after I was done celebrating Easter with friends and family, I got sick! Then, since I was sick, I missed two days of school . When I came back to school, I had to do all the homework and sswork I missed those two days, so I was busy catching up with everything! (Not to mention my friend went missing for seven days, toe back and say she was in an insane asylum for attempting suicide, and was almost raped! Like omg that was horrible) Chapter 30 Chapter 30 @@ "Knock knock" The sound of Mei koi knocking on ¡¯her¡¯ office door could be heard "Come in . " In reply to the knock, Sora Lin¡¯s deep voice could be heard He looked up at Mei and said "You do realize that you are also staying in this office, even if it¡¯s temporarily . There is no real need to knock . " Mei blushed and said "Well, I know that, but . . . . " "But what . ??" "I-I didn¡¯t want to interrupt you Incase you were . . uhh . . doing anything . . " "Anything like what? If I was doing paperwork, you knocking would only be more of a distraction to me . " At this point, Mei was standing directly in front of Sora¡¯s desk Mei tried hard to act calm and collected, maintaining eye contact with Sora when she said "Well, n-no offense or anything . . but I¡¯ve heard a lot about . . CEO¡¯s or big bosses taking/having their mistresses at work . . and doing, well, inappropriate stuff in their Offices to r-rx them . . I don¡¯t know . . uhh . . " At this point, Mei was blushing red when she peaked back at Sora¡¯s face Instantly, the aura in the room turned ice cold as Sora said "Do you really believe that I would have a mistress . . especially in my work office?!!!???" "N-no . . sorry Sir, I won¡¯t make the same mistake again . . " This only made Sora even madder, though he didn¡¯t express his thoughts ¡¯ ¡¯Sir??¡¯ Why is she acting so distant from me now???¡¯ At this point, it was obvious to Mei that it wasn¡¯t the best timing to ask about setting up a music studio, He would probably reject the idea because he was still mad . . @@ Chapter 31 Chapter 31 At this point, it was obvious to Mei that it wasn¡¯t the best timing to ask about setting up a music studio, He would probably reject the idea because he was still mad . . ¡¯I¡¯ll ask him in a little while once he calms down¡¯ Mei thought as she sat down at her respective area She couldn¡¯t help but feel Sora¡¯s asional nces at her The atmosphere was pretty awkward in the room until Sora Lin¡¯s rough voice could be heard saying "For your first assignment as one of our top hackers, you are to be put on trial . " "Put on trial??" Mei questioned . She thought that she was already put through a trial to be here . . "Yes . Though I am definitely aware of what you can do, it would be more assuring for many employees if they knew of your true capabilities . " "Sure, I guess that¡¯s fine . But what will I be tested on??" Mei questioned once again "About that, many of mypanies other hackers feel its impolite for you and your sister to appear out of nowhere and suddenly be at the top of the list . " Sora paused "So we will be holding, sort of a secret hackerpetition . " ¡¯Interesting . . . ¡¯ Mei Koi thought "So the way it will work Is all the chosen hackers will be receiving aptop . They must protect thatptop from being invaded or hacked . Once that person is hacked, they are out of thepetition . So you will have to try to hack everyone else¡¯sptop, whilst protecting yours at the same time . If anyone manages to beat you, then they will take your ce as the top hacker . " ¡¯¡¯Interesting . . . though wouldn¡¯t it be simpler to just see who is the first person to sessfully hack the pentagon or some secure government document??" Mei questioned Sora coughed and then said "I don¡¯t believe many of our hackers have the same skill set as you . Not to mention we are trying to refrain from doing anything TOO illegal . . " "Oh, Okay . . . " then Mei had a thought "WAIT . . . will Ali be doing the same thing as me??" It would be sort of a problem if Ali and Mei werepeting against each other (for some obvious reasons . . . ) "About that . No, She will not be doing the same mission as you . She is doing a top secret mission for her trial . If should be of the same difficulty level as the one you are doing for your trial . " "Oh, okay . . . " Mei said "Oh, and don¡¯t expect to see Ali for a little while . Her mission should take a while . " "What?!?!" Chapter 32 Chapter 32 "Oh, okay . . . " Mei said "Oh, and don¡¯t expect to see Ali for a little while . Her mission should take a while . " "What?!?!" Mei gasped "But . . " Mei trailed off "Yes?" Sora replied calmly before saying "Do you have a problem with this arrangement?" "No . . . it¡¯s just that she wanted me to ask you about letting us set up a dance studio in your house . . since we will be staying there" Saying that sparked another thought into Mei¡¯s mind "And speaking of us staying at your house . . i feel it¡¯s improper for a male and a female to be staying in the same house together if they are not married . . " Based on Mei¡¯s past, being raised in the orphanage and then a strict old mans control, she was raised to follow ancient culture "Why? Do you think I will do something to you?" As Sora said this, his voice was cold "N-no Sir, I . . I just was raised to follow ancient culture, and . . . well, I don¡¯t really know you to well . Besides, we aren¡¯t even married yet . . " Mei didn¡¯t mean to say ¡¯yet¡¯ it was purely a slip of tongue . Mei Koi thought that it was probably Ali rubbing off on her "Yet? Are you implying that in the future we might marry??" Sora smirked a little to himself "I- I didn¡¯t mean that, it was just a slip of tongue . . " Mei said whilst blushing "Well, if you really want to follow ancient culture . . . " Sora paused Mei thought to herself ¡¯Phew . . I¡¯m guessing he¡¯s about to say then he will arrange for me to stay someone else, like maybe in an apartment . . ?¡¯ Sora continued "Then we could get married . " Sora said that with a strait face "Wh-What?? Umm, haha?" Mei didn¡¯t know how to react but sensing the awkward atmosphere, she said "I-I¡¯m going to go see Ali real quick before she leaves . . " When Mei turned around to leave Sora¡¯s office, she could once again feel Sora¡¯s eyes watching her departing body . . Chapter 33 Chapter 33 When Mei turned around to leave Sora¡¯s office, she could once again feel Sora¡¯s eyes watching her departing body . . Little did she know that some emotions were being stirred inside of Sora ¡¯Why am I feeling this way . . ?¡¯ Sora questioned ¡¯and why does her back look so . . good??¡¯ Sora quickly removed thatst thought from his head Sora turned back to face hisputer screen and resumed the work he was working on ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - (Mei walks into Ali¡¯s office) Ali looked up once she heard her office door open and smiled when she saw who it was "Well hello there . . !" Ali said "Did you . . y¡¯know . . . ask Sora about our music room . . ?" Hearing Sora¡¯s name, Mei blushed, which Ali had seen "Ooooohhhhhh . . . . ? Did something haaappppeeeennnn??" As she said before, Ali was definitely a shipper of Sora and Mei "N-no . . . just . . " Mei started to say "WHY ARE YOU LEAVING MEEEEEEEHH??" "O-oh . . that . . well I¡¯m sorry that I¡¯m going to be leaving you for a while . . . " suddenly Ali remembered "But why did you blush when I said Sora¡¯s name hhuuuuhhh???" Ali had a smirk on her face "Its- it¡¯s just that . . when I mentioned how I didn¡¯t want to stay in a house alone with a man whom I¡¯m not married to . . . " Mei paused "Aaaannnnndddddd?????!" Ali was obviously starting to get a little impatient "Well . . . when I said that . . he offered to marry me . . . " Mei blushed once again "Oooooooooo . . " Ali smirked at Mei "So when do I get my cute little nieces and nephews from you huh??" "Ali! I swear it¡¯s not like that . . Sora probably just wanted to make me morefortable or something . . . " Mei tried toe to a reasonable exnation "Uhuhh . . sureeee . . it¡¯s not like it¡¯s totally weird to basically propose to someone who¡¯s basically a stranger just to make them feel better . . . " Ali definitely knew something was up Honestly, even Mei had some doubts . . . .

" Mei blushed as she thought to herself ¡¯well . . he is handsome . . . . wait what am I thinking . . . ¡¯ Mei stopped herself from thinking more "Maybe you¡¯ll find your true love on your secret mission . .

" Ali said with a strait face "About that . . what even is your mission? I¡¯m kinda curious now . . " Mei said "Sshhh . . . you should already know that it¡¯s top secret . . we shouldn¡¯t even be talking about it right now . . . " Ali said and then added "buttt, don¡¯t forget that you could always just hack into my missions documents and informationter . . . . " Ali said with a sly face "Haha, yeah . . . I could, but where¡¯s the fun in that?" Mei replied backughing "Yeah . . Oh and did you ask Sora about the music/dance room??" Ali said cheerfully "Oh . . . About that . . umm . . . I know this is sudden but I think we shouldn¡¯t pursue that career . . at least for right now . . we are to busy at the moment, and because of my assignment I can¡¯t really spare a second of my time . . which is probably the same thing for you and your assignment . . " after Mei finished talking, she looked over at Ali¡¯s disappointed face "I¡¯m sorry but I thinks it¡¯s best for now . . . " Mei added "I know . . . I know what you said is true . . I¡¯ve known it for a while now actually . . it¡¯s just . . . " suddenly Ali paused and then said "Let¡¯s go have dinner now at some fancy restaurant! My treat!!" As if she had aplete personality change within the second . . ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - "Sir, it appears that they are going to eat . Would you like me to prepare a car for you to follow them . . ?" A male voice said "Yes, but you make sure we are inconspicuous . . .

" "So you noticed it to . . I feel like something big is about to happen . . it makes me just feel . . uneasy . . " Ali said "Not to mention we will be separated soon . . " as Mei said that, she looked around and observed everyone around them "But we¡¯ve also been staying to low on the charts . . we aren¡¯t caught up on all of the criminal activity . . just think about it! It gives our enemies the perfect opportunity to team up and prepare to go against us!" Mei continued "I know I said I couldn¡¯t afford to waste a second earlier, but this is more important . . besides, I can handle all of those low ss hackers in my sleep!" (Mei¡¯s talking about her assignment/trial) "And I couldn¡¯t go into full detail earlier but my main reason for not snagged to continue doing show business for a work is because I¡¯m afraid that our enemies will figure out our true identities if they haven¡¯t already . I mean we¡¯ve been being so carelesstely!" Mei said "Yeah . . . " Ali agreed Then, both of them knew what they had to do "We have to pick up our underworld business and remind them of whose boss . . " "But doing that . . " Ali said "Yes . Doing that would make us have to temporarily quit our jobs and careers . . " Mei finished what Ali was going to say "Its honestly probably too risky to go back to our jobs tomorrow, and at least for a little while, until we know the threat is gone . I don¡¯t even think that we should stay with Sora, because we would then put him in danger as well . . " Mei said "Yes . But how will we inform him of this . . " Ali questioned "Leave that to me . . " Mei said as she thought back to when he gave her his business card as well as his personal phone number for emergencies Normally, if they weren¡¯t in any danger, this would be the time when Ali would crack a joke and ask Mei why she had his number and then they would talk a little about love, but this was a serious matter . . "I¡¯ll call him right now and inform him . " Mei said as she pulled out her phone ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Ring Ring Ring "CEO Lin, it appears that Mei is calling you on your personal device" "Hand me the phone and then go outside of my office while I answer this .

Sorry, but me and Ali won¡¯t be able to go in to work for a little while . . . " Mei got strait to the point "Why . " Sora¡¯s voice sounded ice cold "It¡¯s simply to dangerous for everyone . I promise that once things have settled down enough we will resume working . . or maybe we can still do the important things that need to be done, but from the safety of our home . . " saying that sparked another thought into Mei¡¯s head "Oh and we won¡¯t be able to live with you . As I said before it¡¯s too dangerous . . " "Fine . " Sora¡¯s voice sounded awfully cold when he ended the phone call ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª Authors note: I feel like it¡¯s been to peacefultely so I wanted to add some drama . . . Also I chose to write this chapter because I want to remind everyone (and myself) of Mei and Ali¡¯s badass nature It just felt like to me they both were getting way to soft so I had to do something about it . . . And today¡¯s chapter is double the size of a normal chapter! Normally it¡¯s around 300-400 words (atleast it has been recently) and this chapter was more than 600 words!

" after a brief pause he said "and postpone their assignments . . " "Yes CEO Lin!" The secretary said ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª After the call ended, Mei noticed a male with silver hair was staring at them "Do you want something?" Mei said as she turned towards the silver hair male "Please excuse my rudeness, but you two are far to beautiful to be left alone . . . " the male voice said "Who are you . . ?" Ali said in a cold voice "Wow . . I¡¯m hurt . Do you two really not recognize me . . ?" After saying that, the silver haired man observed their oblivious reactions "We are all from the same orphanage! I¡¯m hurt you don¡¯t recognize me . . it¡¯s Marcus, Marcus Alle!" Marcus said "Marcus?" Mei said "what are you doing here?" "What? Can¡¯t I see my two favorite people??" As he said that, he hugged Mei and Ali ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª ¡¯Snap¡¯ unbeknownst to them, someone just took a photo of them hugging "Yes . . . this will please Sir Sai . . . we can use this to make a profit for Sora . . . " a mysterious male voice said ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª "I don¡¯t know if your aware . . . but someone had been following you . . .

I mean if the #1 assassin known as Dr . Death didn¡¯t know someone was watching him, then it would ruin your reputation drastically . . " Mei said Yes, Mei and Ali are the top hackers, but Marcus is the top assassin . . this trio is a very deadlybination! "I believe the person who just ran away took a photo of us . . would you like me to chase him down . . ?" Marcus said "No . . . we will deal with himter . . " Mei said, causing Marcus to have a disappointed look on his face as he said "Well that ruins all the fun now!" After saying that, Marcus poured and gave his best puppy dog eyes Authors note: my phone broke .

After saying that, Marcus pouted and gave his best puppy dog eyes "I¡¯m sure it does . . " Ali said sarcastically "But seriously . . " Marcus said with a strait face "These people are starting to get gutsy . . I mean directly spying on you two! Who¡¯s crazy enough to do that . . ?!" As Marcus said that, he over exaggerated his point by shivering "Haha . Very funny . " Mei said before adding "but, they certainly are getting gutsy . . . " After saying that, Mei added "And about that . . . Ali and I talked about this earlier, and as you said, they are getting too bold . They must be up to something . . " as Mei said that, she didn¡¯t hide the distaste from her face "Yeah, we decided to talk over lunch today to discuss how we will deal with this . . " Mei said "Once you find a few of the people going against you feel free to tell me their names . . I¡¯d love to beat up a few people . . " Marcus paused, and then said "heck, if you wanted me to, I¡¯d even torture them or kill them, free of charge!" Marcus taking on a job for free would make some people get a heart attack After all, Marcus WAS the #1 assassin in the criminal underworld . . Normally just for one simple assignment it would cost half a million, whereas if it was a hard assignment . . people could only shudder at the price . . "We might just take you up on that offer, Marcus . .

It looked like all three were old Acquaintances, which Sora noticed "Find our what they are doing . And find out who that man is . " Sora¡¯s cold voice rang out "Y-Yes, Sir!" As soon as the scared secretary said that, he immediately left the room and started the job his boss assigned to him Man, he was so unlucky for having such a terrifying boss!! - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - ¡ª - (Back with Mei, Ali, and Marcus) "We might just take you up on that offer, Marcus . .

I just don¡¯t fit in with hacking that much, I guess, and when I first sang with Mei, it was like my whole world changed . . " after taking another deep breath Ali added in "So I will be leaving behind hacking, though of course, if the situation ever depends on it, I will return to hacking to help either of you in a heartbeat . . . " Then Ali added " and I hope we can still remain friends . . sorry that I just randomly announced this while we are in the middle of trouble . . " Ali finished Chapter 39 Chapter 39 "Yeah, And although this might not be the best time, I would like to announce something . . " Ali paused before saying "after we finish taking care of the guys after us . . I would like to continue as a singer, maybe even an idol . . I just don¡¯t fit in with hacking that much, I guess, and when I first sang with Mei, it was like my whole world changed . . " after taking another deep breath Ali added in "So I will be leaving behind hacking, though of course, if the situation ever depends on it, I will return to hacking to help either of you in a heartbeat . . . " Then Ali added " and I hope we can still remain friends . . sorry that I just randomly announced this while we are in the middle of trouble . . " Ali finished After Ali said that, it was awfully quiet, so Ali said "b-but don¡¯t worry . . before I quit hacking, I¡¯ll still help this time in destroying the enemies . . " Finally, Mei smirked as she said "I could already tell that your heart belonged elsewhere . . it doesn¡¯t matter that you don¡¯t want to continue to hack, as long as we remain friends . . !" To which Marcus added in "Yeah, you were always to soft in the orphanage . . I remember how you used to always annoy the caretakers by your constant chatter and singing . . . " After Marcus said that, Mei once againughed and added "also how you use to have those mini concerts for all your imaginary friends . . it was quite adorable!" After hearing their replies, Ali¡¯s eyes started to water a bit as she said "thanks so much, guys . . you have no idea how much this means to me . . " after which she said that Marcus pulled all three of them into a big group hug ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª- "Sir! I have the information you requested earlier . . !" The secretary looked out of breath, most likely because hepleted the assignment as fast as he could, not wanting to receive his bosses coldness . . "Give it to me . . " Sora¡¯s voice rang out "Y-Yes Sir! Here . . " as he handed it to Sora, Sora started to read the information . While Sora was reading it silently, the secretary was saying it out loud "About that man . . his name is Marcus Ale . He owns a popr bar that many famous and wealthy people go to . Apparently, Marcus, Ali, and Mei were all in the same orphanage . ording to the caretakers, the three of them were best friends and seemed almost inseparable . " The secretary took a deep breath before saying "the three of them were best friends and seemed almost inseparable, but they did end up separated . Mei and Ali were adopted by the same person, while Marcus was adopted by someone else . There is no record or anything of either of their adoptive parents nor their real parents . " Chapter 40 Chapter 40 (I¡¯ve decided to add some background knowledge of Marcus¡¯s past, and next chapter will be about Mei and Ali¡¯s backstory in the orphanage) ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª- (Short story of Marcus¡¯s childhood) Marcus Ale: He couldn¡¯t believe what he had just heard Someone was going to adopt Ali and Mei? Marcus showed a gloomy reaction while thinking ¡¯So that means that . . they are going to leave me...? All alone in this orphanage . . ?¡¯ "w . . why? Why are you leaving me alone . . ?" Marcus said At this point, tears were streaming down his face "w . . wh . . why!... . !!!!??!" He shouted before passing out In the morning, when Marcus woke up, he looked around and then something suddenly dawned on him He ran all the way to the girls room area, and barged into where Mei and Ali stayed Nothing . There was nothing there All their clothes and belongings were gone . There was no sign that either Mei nor Ali ever lived there "I . . it wasn¡¯t a dream . . they REALLY left me . . " as Marcus said that, tears started to pour down his face again Marcus screamed out angrily before punishing the wall in front of him as hard as he could Mark gritted his teeth at the pain he just felt but then kicked their beds as hard as he could ~~~~One Week Later~~~~~~ Before Mei and Ali left, the three of them were considered as angels by all the caretakers . They even helped the caretakers with things that they didn¡¯t have to do They brought a smile to everyone¡¯s face all the time When a little kid or baby cried or threw a tantrum, Marcus, Ali and Mei always knew how to make them smile It saddened them that Mei and Ali were leaving, but they were also honestly really happy for them . They finally got a real family ¡¯But now . . ¡¯ the caretaker shook as she looked at the scene infront of her ¡¯Marcus . . has really changed...¡¯ Marcus had indeed really changed . Before, he could be called an angel, but now, he was more like a devil He was screaming at the top of his lungs and attacking a kid who had spilled some milk onto him Doing so, he broke a couple of chairs/stools Some of the caretakers tried to intervene, but they just ended up getting attacked as well At this point, any little thing caused a full on storm from him He was rebelling . He made it clear that he wouldn¡¯t stop acting this way unless they brought Mei and Ali back Sadly, there was really no way that they could take Mei and Ali back, and even if they could, they still wouldn¡¯t . There was no way that they were going to take mei and Ali¡¯s new family away from them At this moment, a caretaker was escorting around a man He had expressed his interest in adopting a child "And in here is the area where everyone eats . Right now, majority of the children are in there eating right now . " Just as she opened the door, there was a loud scream which was followed by the sound of several things being knocked over The man saw the scene in front of him and smiled "What¡¯s that young mans name?" He asked, pointing towards Marcus "O-oh . . him? His name is Marcus . I swear he used to be so angelic but . . he¡¯s going through some stuff at the moment" the caretaker stated "I would like to adopt that child... Marcus..." there was a certain gleam in his eye which the caretaker noticed "Really? Are you sure? Here, wait right there for a moment please . " After she said that, she rushed over to where Marcus was At this moment, 2 of the caretakers managed to grab hold of him, and where about to escort him to his room Even though he used to share a room with all the boys a week ago, with his sudden change of personality, the adults decided it would be best (and safer) if he was assigned to his own room She whispered into the ear of the one holding him "A man just said he would like to adopt Marcus . Take him to the introductory room, so the man can chat with him . . " The girls eyes widened as she said "really?" But then she nodded and started escorting him towards the introductory room "Where are you taking me? This isn¡¯t the way to my room?" Marcus said this with attitude "You¡¯ll find out . " She replied calmly The caretaker in charge of showing the possible foster father around had already delivered him to the introductory room . He sat there calmly, without any expression . It appeared he was deep in thought, so the woman decided to let him think (Back with Marcus) "This is the introductory room . . ? WHY on EARTH are we HERE??!?" Seeing this room brought back the realization that Mei and Ali were in herest just before they left him Obviously, he was a little mad "Someone expressed their interest in adopting you . Be nice to them . " "Really?" As Marcus said that, his voice and eyes turned cold "Yes, nowe in and take a seat . " The caretaker relied As Marcus sat down, he red coldly at the man in front of him, as if trying to intimidate him The man once again chuckled and said "hello, young man . What has you so angry today?" He wanted to know what angered him, so that maybe he could control the anger and turn it into strength "None if your concern, old man . " Marcus said sharply Quickly, one of the caretakers rushed over and whispered into the man¡¯s ear "He¡¯s upset about these two girls getting adopted, and ¡¯leaving him behind¡¯ . " "Oh . I see . " The man said before turning towards the boy named Marcus "If I adopt you, you would be able to see those two girls again . . " The man calmly said "Really . . ?" Marcus was skeptical, though just hearing this man say that strangely made Marcus almost instantly believe him "Of course . I swear on my life that I am not lying . I always keep my promises" the man said truthfully "Fine . . I guess I¡¯ll believe you . For NOW atleast . You better keep your word . . OR ELSE..." suddenly, Marcus eyes became chillingly cold "You don¡¯t want to know . . " The man smirked once again "Good . " Then he turned to the caretaker next to him and said "I am definitely sure I want to adopt this child . I will take him home with me today also . " "Okay, here¡¯s the paperwork to officially adopt Marcus . . " the caretaker was a little hesitant, she just didn¡¯t want to also lose Marcus along with Mei and Ali, but she was still professional so she handed him the paperwork without anyints Marcus watched intently as the man signed his name and swore loyalty to take care of Marcus He felt something was off . . but he didn¡¯t know just what it was "You swear you¡¯ll let me see Mei and Ali again...???" Marcus wanted to double check "Of course . Now that I¡¯ve finished signing the paperwork, follow me to my car . " "Okay . " While walking behind the man, Marcus realized something . . This man . . he was absolutely ripped! All of his muscles looked strong enough to carry the moon (lol) "Youing?" The man turned his head to look back at Marcus "Y-yeah . . " and he was also devilishly handsome! "S-So What¡¯s your name . . ?" Marcus hadn¡¯t even heard this man name yet, but he was already his foster father! "You can call me Tux . At Least That¡¯s what everybody else calls me . " ~~~~~~~~ (Authors thoughts): Okay so imagine this . . I¡¯m in 5th hour (which is like 2 hours long) I¡¯m in the yearbook ss for 5th hour, and we haven¡¯t really done much . I hadpleted all of my assignments before ss even began, so I decided to write for this chapter . I start continuing myst chapter when I decided to all of a sudden make a chapterpletely dedicated to Marcus So I start writing, and then all of a sudden I feel the urge to make Marcus an emotional wreck So there I was, frowning, making my eyebrows bend all the way down . Overall, I looked VERYYY angry . . and did I mention the entire two hours I was typing so quickly with so much force for some reason, idk (and it was on my school iPad, which is pretty big . . ) I am also at a ce where legit everyone could see me . I sit right beside the teacher . . (not to mention . . if you are ever curious about how I act . . I am a statue in every single ss . I don¡¯t show emotion whatsoever, and I almost never talk . . I only talk when my friends are there, but I am still very distant . So me acting like that so openly must of been weird . . ) But writing this chapter about Marcus made me emotional so I hope you atleast feel pity for what Marcus was going through . . I know I sure did . . (I wonder what everyone was thinking when they saw me quietly and angrily attacking my iPad . . ?) Chapter 41 - Mei’s Past

Chapter 41 - Mei¡¯s Past

(Mei) "Soo.. I have to multiply this?" A young boy said "Yep! Your doing really good so far! If you need any help, just ask!" Mei sat down next to the young boy and pulled out a book that was in Russian Mei was helping a younger kid with their homework She helped out everyone everyday, with various different things She was fluent in several differentnguages, math, reading, and basically all school subjects Begin an orphan, she had a lot of free time She liked to read several books in variousnguages to pass time sometimes She was also very athletically fit She was basically, in short, a super genius Not to mention, she was also basically an angel, helping out anyone who needed help It was surprising that no one had adopted her yet, based on how perfect she was. Several of the caretakers even wanted to adopt her at one point, but they decided against it But today, there was a visitor checking out the orphanage that would very soon change her life ~~~~~~ "Who would you say is the smartest child in this orphanage. Who is the most gifted? If you have any outstanding geniuses at all? I would like to observe each one of them." A female voice said "Oh, sure. Wait a second. I¡¯ll go gather all of their files. There are several kids who meet what you said." The female caretaker politely smiled and went off to gather the files ¡¯I hope there¡¯s someone in this orphanage that¡¯ll be perfect for me.. but I highly doubt it¡¯ the female thought The caretaker returned with several files She grabbed the top file and starting reading it out "Sam Wilson. Age 13. He almost aced every single one of his sses, except for math. Math really isn¡¯t his strong suit, but he¡¯s a wonderful child!" As soon as the worker said that, she saw the women¡¯s displeasure in her eyes "Could you show me the students who are very good at math, reading, and all the basic skills like that." The woman said as she thought to herself, ¡¯there¡¯s no way someone who isn¡¯t good at math would be a good disciple..¡¯ "Oh, uh.. sure!" The worker said as she skimmed through all the files she brought with her "You¡¯ll like this one!" The female worker said as she set the file on the table "her name is Cherry Fern. She¡¯s the top of her ss! She¡¯s also a very kindhearted person! She loves drawing and coloring. Sometimes, she¡¯s in her own little wondend. She¡¯s very easy to take care of and raise!" The female worker thought that the woman in front of her would really like Cherry, so she was excited, but when she looked up at the women again, she once again saw displeasure in her eyes. ¡¯She sounds to softhearted.. I need someone who can focus..¡¯ the female thought but didn¡¯t voice it out loud Sensing that no one thedy really wanted was in the files, the caretaker said "here, I¡¯ll bring you around the ssrooms. I¡¯m sure you¡¯ll find someone you like there!" The caretaker once again gained the sparkle in her eyes "Okay." The female replied as she started to follow the caretaker ~~~~~ They checked out a couple of ssrooms, but thedy didn¡¯t find anyone she really wanted "Here, this is one of thest gifted ssrooms. There must be someone who will catch your eye!" Somehow, The female worker still had all of her energy, though it probably isn¡¯t all that surprising, as the worker dealt with many children everyday from her job as a caretaker. When they walked in, the female looked around the ssroom and observed every one of the kids No one really caught her eye at first, but when she looked at the corner of the room, her uninterested nce suddenly turned interested "Who¡¯s that girl over there, in the corner?" The female said Hearing this, the worker enthusiastically looked over at the corner. Someone finally caught this women¡¯s interest! When the female worker saw who she was talking about, she gasped and eximed "How in the world did I forget about her?! She¡¯s Mei Koi, easily one of the top 3 smartest kids in the entire orphanage! She¡¯s mastered every single skill we have at the orphanage! Right now she¡¯s helping out a student with math homework! She helps out everyone all the time with any subject they need help with! Even the oldest kids ask for her help sometimes..!" The female¡¯s eyes sparkled for a quick second before her gaze turned back to normal "Can I go over there real quick to talk to her for a minute?" The female said "Of course! Go right ahead!" The female worker was happy ¡¯Mei might finally get a real family!¡¯ Though, at the thought of this, the worker was slightly sad ¡¯if she does really get adopted, I¡¯ll miss her a bunch.. but that doesn¡¯t matter! As long as she¡¯s happy!¡¯ This worker was also one of the people who considered adopting Mei ¡ª¡ª¡ª Mei looked up from her book when she heard someone approaching her "So I hear your good at your studies?" The woman said Mei nodded politely and said "Yes, and they are all quite fun!" "Oh, good." The female worker said as she looked down at the book the young girl Mei was reading She was just curious at first, but when she saw want the book was in her hand, she was surprised as she said "You can read russian?" A hint of approval shed in the woman¡¯s eyes. "Mhm" Mei nodded but then added "I also know all the mainnguages of the world with a couple more not as well knownnguages..." Mei replied politely "Oh really?" The woman was intrigued "Yes, ma¡¯am." Mei once again replied politely The woman was d that this girl was also polite. It would be an added bonus The woman motioned the worker over and said "I would like to adopt Mei." When Mei heard this, she gasped "What?" Mei was not sure if she heard the woman correctly The woman nced at Mei and said "I would like to adopt you. Is there is problem?" Mei couldn¡¯t believe what she heard. Someone WANTED to adopt HER! But Mei sighed as she thought of Marcus and Ali "Uhm.. actually.. if you are going to adopt me.. can you also adopt a girl called Ali and a boy called Marcus? They are really smart and well behaved.." Mei¡¯s voice trailed of as she finished her sentence Mei knew it was unreasonable to ask, but it¡¯s not like she could easily forget about her best friends "hmm.. I will oblige to your request and adopt the girl, Ali.. I will not, however, adopt the boy." The woman had thought for a second and decided it would be better to have two possible disciples instead of one "Oh.. okay.." Mei was of course, excited that Ali would also get adopted, but she still wished Marcus would also be adopted with them.. The caretaker walked over at this point, so the woman turned towards her and said "I would like to adopt Mei, and her friend Ali." "O-oh. Okay. Here are the required forms. Please fill them out." After the signing was all done, Ali was quickly informed of her adoption and was ushered to meet the woman When Ali walked up to the woman and Mei, she could feel the woman¡¯s stares on her, which made her a little nervous The woman sighed, nodded, and then said "here, you two follow me. I will take you to your new home." Then, without any time to say goodbyes, the woman¡¯s was already walking out the doors Mei and Ali quickly ran to catch up with this woman, ncing back at the orphanage. They didn¡¯t even get the chance to say goodbye to Marcus. Chapter 42 - Ali’s Past

Chapter 42 - Ali¡¯s Past

¡ª¡ª¡ª Ali¡¯s perspective: "Hmm... what did you say?" Ali asked, as she was not sure she heard her correctly "There¡¯s a nice woman who would like to adopt you and Mei." The caretaker replied politely "Really? What about Marcus? Is he getting adopted with us also?" Of course, one of Ali¡¯s first thoughts was about Marcus. "I¡¯m sorry, but marcus won¡¯t be getting adopted with you. Only you and Mei will get adopted today.." The caretaker apologized "Can you please ask the nicedy to adopt him also?" Ali didn¡¯t want to lose Marcus. If she would be getting adopted, of course she¡¯d want to share her happiness with Mei AND Marcus! "Again, I¡¯m so sorry. Mei already requested thedy to adopt you AND Marcus, but thedy only decided to also adopt you.." the caretaker felt bad for Mei, Ali, and Marcus. The three who seemed absolutely inseparable would now be separated.. "Oh.. okay." Ali was really disappointed but didn¡¯t voice her mind "Now please, follow me. Someone has already packed up all of your and Mei¡¯s belongings. The nice woman would like to adopt and take both of you home as soon as possible, so we¡¯re going to meet her right now. After she meets you and finishes dinging the paperwork, she will take you to your new home." The caretaker tried to brighten the mood "Hm.. Okay..!" The caretakers attempt slightly worked a little As they walked, Ali was left to her own thoughts ¡¯I¡¯m really getting adopted..? And it¡¯s with Mei..?¡¯ Ali was trying toprehend the whole situation ¡¯I¡¯m d that I¡¯ll stay with Mei, but I¡¯ll really miss Marcus.. I hope he gets adopted soon.¡¯ Ali continued to think more about that, when suddenly a thought dawned upon her ¡¯I know the caretaker said thedy was nice, but is she actually nice and not just pretending..? I wonder how old she is.. is she pretty? Will she tell me to call her¡ª Ali hesitated¡ª mom..?¡¯ Ali¡¯s head was filled with a million thoughts about her new ¡¯parent¡¯. She had heard before that some stepparents could be mean, so she was a little worried ¡¯I wonder if she has any other kids or pets..? or books, perhaps?¡¯ Ali gasped as she thought ¡¯MAYBE she has a piano! Maybe she sings?! OOH, what if she-¡¯ Ali¡¯s thoughts were interrupted when the caretaker said "and here we are. Your new foster mother is in that room with Mei. I¡¯ll let you go in and talk to her first for a little before Ie in." ¡¯She¡¯s in here!¡¯ Ali focused intensely on the door as she opened it slowly Ali had already had a couple images in her head as to what the woman looked like, but what she saw shocked her There was a tall, beautiful woman standing there. She had long, silver-ish hair, beautiful big green eyes, basically perfect skin, and she overall just looked perfect. Ali couldn¡¯t find any w in the woman¡¯s appearance, except for the fact that the woman seemed a little cold. "Hello, you must be Ali. You can call me Rose. I¡¯ll be your new foster parent. It¡¯s very nice to meet you." After the woman said that, she nced at Mei and said "I¡¯ll let you two catch up for a minute. I¡¯m sure today has been a busy day for both of you." Rose said Her real purpose wasn¡¯t to let the two catch up, but to observe them both. She wanted to make sure these children were good enough for her standards in many ways.. ~~~~~~~~~ Ali turned to face towards Mei and said "Isn¡¯t this so crazy? You and me are getting adopted TOGETHER!" Mei nodded and replied "yeah, this whole thing has been really crazy. It would have been much better though, if Marcus could go with us.." Mei stopped speaking for a second and sighed "though I guess it would be better if he remained. The little kids still need someone to look up to. If you and I can¡¯t be there for them, I¡¯m d Marcus is.." Ali looked around and said "and honestly I don¡¯t even think we¡¯ll be able to say goodbye to him.. The caretaker told me our new foster mother, Rose, wanted to take us home as soon as she signed the papers.." "Yeah, they said the same thing to me.. I guess we won¡¯t be able to say bye to anyone else before we leave.." At this point, Rose decided to announce "here! I¡¯ve filled out all the required paperwork" Rose handed the paperwork to the caretaker who walked in "Thank you.." the caretaker quickly said before skimming through the paperwork "okay, you¡¯re all set to go! Let us know how Mei and Ali are doing once they settle in, as we would love to know how much they like their new home..!" And with that, Rose quietly turned towards the girls and motioned them to follow her Mei and Ali obeyed, but when they walked out of the orphanage doors, Ali just couldn¡¯t help but look back ¡¯I hope Marcus will be okay..¡¯ Ali thought ~~~~~~~~~~~ On the car ride to their new home, the air was silent The woman driving, Rose, hadn¡¯t said a single word since they got into the car Mei and Ali hadn¡¯t either, seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward Ali was thinking when she silently shook her head, frowning a little This did not escape the woman¡¯s eye, as she adjusted the hanging mirror a little to look at Mei and Ali "Is something the matter?" Rose calmly asked Ali looked almost surprised for a second, as if she hadn¡¯t expected rose to see her shake her head, before she replied "O-oh.. no, nothings the matter.. I was just wondering if you had any other kids. Or maybe any pets, perhaps?" Ali brought up the thought that was in her head since she was told about getting a foster mother "Hmm.. I do not have any other kids, though in a sense, you both will have many other siblings." Rose said after thinking for a second "What do you mean by ¡¯other siblings¡¯? Didn¡¯t you just say that you had no other kids?" This time, it was Mei who spoke Rose chuckled and replied "you two will be raised as my disciples. I have many other disciples around your age, but you two will personally be trained by me. After all, you both are now officially my adopted children. The other kids aren¡¯t. So, in a sense, you two will be higher up in my disciples." When Ali heard that they would be disciples, another thought that she had had earlier suddenly came to her head "D-do you mean disciples, like you are a famous movie star or singer and you¡¯re going to teach u-us how to sing and dance or maybe even act??!" Ali was getting really excited One again, Rose chuckled and replied calmly "no, i will not be teaching you any of THAT. You both will be my disciples in hacking. I hope to raise you as the new best hackers in the world, after me of course." After a quick moment, Rose added "though, if you would like to dance, I can look into hiring someone for your little hobby. Both of your main focusses will be on hacking, though." That was quite honestly a lot of information to process, as Mei and Ali were left speechless Ali didn¡¯t know what to feel.. (End of Ali¡¯s perspective) ~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~ Chapter 43 - Agent Dorei

Chapter 43 - Agent Dorei

(shback to chapter 35: uneasy) "Sir, it appears that they are going out to eat. Would you like me to prepare a car to follow them..?" A male voice said and he kneeled and looked down "Yes, but make sure you are inconspicuous.. don¡¯t forget to bring backup, as these two people can be extremely dangerous." Another deeper, male voice said (End of shback to chapter 35) "Yes.. inform me right away if anything happens. No matter how small it may be, report it back to me immediately." The man who was kneeling looked up at his master. ¡¯Master Sami seems to be in a good mood today. Hopefully.. nothing ruins his mood..¡¯ The kneeling man shivered No matter how well trained anyone was, when faced with his master, they would be afraid His master had pale skin, dark blue eyes, navy blue hair, and a thin scar going horizontally on his eye. He had an air of nobility surrounding him, but also of that of a General in the army. The look in his eyes always seemed to say ¡¯see what happens if you mess with me.¡¯ All these things together made Master stand out amongst a crowd. You could easily say his master was attractive, though no own had really ever told him that. His aura was far too scary for ordinary citizens to handle. People might notice him because of his looks, but the those same people would quickly avoid his masters path, afraid of him. "Please pardon me while I take my leave.. Master Sami" the man said "You¡¯re free to go. But be warned that if you screw up your assignment in any way.." The man, now identified as Sami, chuckled "Just be warned.. Agent Dorei" The kneeling man, now known as ¡¯Agent Dorei¡¯ quickly stood up and bowed as he fled the room ¡¯Man.. that was scary..¡¯ Dorei thought ¡¯Master Sami never uses our names unless he¡¯s absolutely serious..¡¯ he gulped ¡¯and ready to kill..¡¯ Dorei quickly prepared a normal looking car and hopped into it. He didn¡¯t need much of a disguise, as the people he was tailing wouldn¡¯t know him. Besides, with his looks, he could naturally fit into a crowd and not be noticed. Dorei was average looking, with pale-ish skin, light brown hair, dark green eyes, and no scars or any sign of trouble He sort of looked like a flirt.. He was wearing a baggy t-shirt which he had quickly changed into after talking to Master Sami He naturally had an easygoing or lighthearted personality, and he was a naturaledian His job was to infiltrate and follow enemies. Though that was his main job, he dabbled in a little of everything. Another one of his main talents was hacking, though Master Sami was the best hacker he¡¯d ever met. Right now, he had to tail two people and observe their actions Dorei sighed as he turned the cars engine on ¡¯Hopefully I won¡¯t have to do anything to them..¡¯ Agent Dorei disliked harming civilians or at least causing any unnecessary harm to anyone. He especially disliked harming innocent women and children Agent Dorei was really only doing his job for the money, as Master Sami paid well. ¡¯Besides that,¡¯ Dorei thought ¡¯I have spotted the targets..¡¯ He pressed the button on his earpiece and said ¡¯targets located¡¯ ¡¯it appears that they are having dinner..¡¯ Dorei thought ¡¯maybe I should go inside to listen to what they are saying..¡¯ Following his thoughts, he looked in his rear view mirror and straightened his shirt ¡¯that¡¯s better..¡¯ he thought Dorei casually walked inside the restaurant, taking note of all the backup agents hiding outside The receptionistdy nced up at Dorei and said "How many people are in your party?" "One.. including myself." As he said that, agent Dorei winked at the receptionistdy, waiting for her tough or at least look up at him. She did neither, instead calmly replying "Okay, sir. Follow me please." As Dorei sat down, he sighed as he watched the two girls mindlessly chatter. ¡¯They seem so peaceful.. It¡¯s hard to believe that I¡¯m assigned to watch these two top hackers in the world, as a top secret mission. I¡ª¡¯ his thoughts were interrupted when he saw a man approach them. ¡¯Is that a coge of theirs?¡¯ He continued watching them. The three of theughed, and the male sat down. Dorei could have sworn he saw the male nce at him, causing him to shiver. Suddenly, the three got up and left. ¡¯Where could they be going?¡¯ Dorei wondered. A/N: sorry it took so long to update.
