The only sounds that came from the tiny apartment that Charlie Knight owned was the furious sound of clicking and typing, the muted blare of sounds through headphones barley registered beyond his own hearing range as he focused on the game at hand. Those bastards were kidding themselves if they thought he’d let them take objective B without a bitter fight. Minutes passed as he focused intently on the game occasionally barking commands down the microphone as he pushed his team to work together and destroy the enemy ruthlessly. Eventually the game timer ran dry and he grinned and leaned back in his chair as his team was victorious, his own name at the top of the leaderboard next to the MVP award.

Still smirking he quit the game and brought up his desktop before he pulled the headphone cord free and slapped on some music, ignoring the messenger icon that indicated he had received several notifications whilst gaming. Instead he diverted his focus to the tray of paraphernalia and rolling provisions and set about crafting himself a smoke. It only took him a brief time before he snatched up the lighter and sparked up, inhaling deeply before letting out a large plume of smoke before he finally diverted his attention back to his desktop.

With a few quick clicks he opened several different windows and began to read his messages. The first was a notification from a program he’d made months and months ago alerting him to a new fourth generation Suzuki Hayabusa sports bike , one of the fastest street bikes in the world – the newest model with all the bells and whistles freshly imported from Japan. He stared at the picture longingly for a few moments more as he exhaled another plume of smoke. He entered a few command lines and moments later a streetmap popped open with its location and a couple of pictures of the showroom that it would soon be delivered to. His grain faded as he leafed through the pages of security that the place had, some serious hardware, software and not to mention the many security guards that would be posted about the place.

He glanced across at the mysterious business card that had arrived, slipped under his door in the middle of the night. Trust Dedsec the most sophisticated group of hackers on the planet to physically deliver a piece of paper as opposed to some sort of computer message. He imagined how great it would be to turn up to the ‘recruitment event’ driving something like that… it would certainly make an impression if he managed to pull off another serious hack on top of a physical infiltration and theft. The more he thought about it the more he considered trying to break into their systems remotely that very moment, but in the end decided that it would be easier if he managed to get himself admin access to ctOS first.

Forcing his attention away from the picture he opened his other messages and leafed through them one by one. A few from girls he’d… spent time with, a few various messages from his contacts through the web and a single message that grabbed his attention. It was from Kotori, another local hacker like himself who just happened to be his best friend. He’d tried to call her last night the moment he’d discovered the card slipped under his door, but she hadn’t answered and he hadn’t been able to track her down. The message simply read “12 Holland Park, Kensington – 11:00pm”, from his experience that was her way of asking him to meet her, likely some party or rave happening there. A few quick searches later and his suspicions were confirmed. He found a few messages on social media of several people talking about a party that would be taking place, some rich asshole whose parents were out of the country.

He glanced down at the time, seeing that if he wanted to get to Kensington for 11:00 pm he’d have to set off soon. He took a few more moments to close and secure his system as he finished his smoke and sighed as he gathered the effort required to start getting ready. Altogether it took him less than twenty minutes to shower, get dressed and get ready. He finished by donning on a black and white striped cap as he snatched up his keys, checking his pockets to make sure he had everything else. Satisfied he did he moved into what passed as the kitchen and went through a small doorway into what passed as a cupboard/boiler room of sorts. Dominating the centre of the room was a rather wonderful smelling leafy plant sat nicely under a little growlight. He took a few moments to water it from a bottle and examine the leaves and stem to make sure all was healthy and well before he turned his attention to the corner of the room.

He crouched down and pulled on a loose floorboard to reveal an old safe, spending a few moments to twist the dial back and forth as he entered the combination and pulled the heavy metal door open to reveal the contents. There was a large wad of notes, a bale of marijuana and a memory stick within the safe though he ignored the latter two as he reached for the cash. He retrieved a considerable chunk of the notes before tossing the remainder back and closing the door.

Minutes later Charlie had left the apartment and was walking down the street with his hood pulled up as he shivered at the change in temperature. It was definitely cold this time of year he thought as he pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and lit one. Before long he had made his way to the nearest tube station and made his way down into the underground pushing through the crowds as he hopped on one of the trains. He pulled out his phone and amused himself with the profiler as he waited, scanning through the immense amount of unprotected data that each person gave off. As always he found himself gravitating towards the prettier people on the tube, scanning a particularly smoking hot blonde he paused and grinned to himself as he found a ‘home-video’ of her that she’d sent to someone in Canada. He shook his head in disbelief at how oblivious people could be as in a few clicks he downloaded it to his PC at home. Before he arrived at his destination he’d found several other interesting tidbits from those who were also on the train, amongst them there was a man who was blackmailing the CEO of a manufacturing company and a woman who was having an affair with her husband’s female secretary as well as a large amount of assorted private personal data. Again he smirked to himself as he hopped off at his destination, before he made his way through the station towards the address Kotori had given him.



Charlie had arrived at the place a little after 11pm to discover that it was indeed as he’d discovered one of London’s most luxurious properties filled with youngsters who were partying the weekend away. He’d made his way in pushing into the throng, the bottom floor filled with people and mess, open bottles, unattended drinks along with various bits of rubbish that had started to accumulate. He moved past a bottle of vodka that someone had left on the side and so he snatched it up and took a deep swig as he made his way through. It only took him a few minutes to find Kotori, the young woman sat on the landing to the second floor with her legs dangling through the banisters as she passed a joint back and forth with a neon-green headed girl, occasionally sending little bits of ash raining down on the uncaring throng below.

He jumped the stairs two at a time, avoiding a passed out guy and sidestepping a rather loudly gesturing girl who was spilling her drink everywhere before they noticed him. “Knight!” beamed Kotori as she jumped up and pulled him into a rough embrace “What took you?”

He could smell the booze on her already and the rather enthusiastic greeting told him that she’d already had a few. He returned her smile as he took another sizable gulp of vodka and shrugged “Nothing much, found a vid on the tube you’d like.” He hesitated for a moment as he looked at the other girl and shot her a flirtatious wink.

“What’d you need me for K?” he asked as he turned his attention back to her.

“Geeze” she breathed out as she watched the girl she was with blush slightly and wink back at him “Not to steal my date if that’s what you’re thinking.” With that she moved back to the girl and planted a kiss on her lips before she said “Go have some fun. I’ll find you in a bizzle”. The girl made her way past her and Knight, again he made sure to catch her eye as she did before he turned back to Kotori with another smirk.

“Okay funny guy” she began grabbing his hand and pulling him along the landing as she continued “You wanna know what I need you for, here”. She pushed open the door at the end of the landing to see that it opened into a huge lavish study, rows of bookcases leading to a large mahogany desk and sleek black desktop computer before she finished “There” pointing to it.

His attention was already peeked as he moved into the room and sat at the desk in the large leather-bound chair before he span around a few times and put the bottle of vodka on the desk and folded his arms and put on a mock frown. She laughed as she watched him before she explained “Sooo, feel like hacking into the Imperial college’s database for me? It’s just that I’ve sorta told someone that I’d sorta be able to do it…”

She smiled as sweetly as she could muster and blinked her deep brown eyes at him a few times before she added “Pleeeeeease”.

He sighed and pulled out his laptop before putting it on the table as he shot her a genuine look of irritation “Fine, but you have to stop this” he said shortly “you know this kinda work I’d normally be charging more than a pretty penny for”.

“Thanks a mill” she said sighing in relief “Natalie Flimbrook, I need you to change her results to from shit to good”

“Which results?” he asked.

“All of them” she replied sheepishly.

“Best get busy then” he said as he started to type away. He paused for a second and looked at her expectantly – it took her a few moments before she twigged and started to roll another joint before he continued. It would take him some time, maybe an hour at the most. It would have been impossible had he not been directly linked to an administrative faculty account, even more so he would have refused outright if anyone else had asked him on the spot like this. But of course Kotori was his exception, she always was. She was a nice girl, talented too. Of course no-where near as skilled as he was but of course who was in this world?



It’d taken him an hour and three minutes, but he’d done it. As he ran the last line of code to erase his presence from the system logs he stood and triumphantly held his hand aloft as he remarked smugly “Another successful abuse of the educational system”.

Kotori gave him a rather full throttle high-five before she thanked him again “Knight, seriously, thank you so much for this one. I totally owe you one.”

He picked up the vodka and examined her for a moment. She was filled with emotions, her face crinkled in joy and that cute smile plastered across her face like she’d slept with a hanger in her mouth. He always wanted to help her. “You owe me five now actually K” he corrected her with another grin before he took several large gulps of vodka before he removed the bottle from his lips as he shuddered at the overpowering taste of the spirit. “Now let’s go find that pretty girl of yours, and let’s tear this party a new one shall we?”

“Too fucking right” she replied as they made their way back out onto the hallway into the loud symphony of blaring music and the chatter of the partygoers. Things looked to be in full swing as they both lent against the banister and watched what was happening for a few moments. He spotted a group of people who had turned the two luxury sofas into some kind of tepee draped with blankets and another group playing some kind of drinking game that involved hand gestures and apparently lots of yelling amongst the general crowd.

“Where’s the generous host?” he shouted at her through the noise.

“I think he’s passed out in the kitchen” she yelled back with a goofy grin as his eyes lit up.

The rest of the night they spent doing shots, Kotori with the neon-green haired girl (who he soon learnt was Natalie Flimbrook herself) whilst they danced together, he spent the time amusing himself talking to the legions of other partygoers (specifically the girls) as he drank and smoked more and more. Before he knew it everything started to become a bit of a blur and the last thing he remembered from the night was someone suggesting they turn the front room into a volleyball court, an idea that he yelled his wholehearted support for as he removed his shirt.

As Toby walks off the plane, he retrieved his bag and walked around, trying to figure out where to go. He'd never been in London before. After a while of aimlessly walking, he walked out to the street and was too confused. He was thinking about what to do. He needed to get to the location on the card. He couldn't show it to a random cab driver. After a minuet of thinking, he decided to put up a Dedsec beacon. He needed someone who actually knew this place. He strapped on his backpack and walked into a clothes store and bought new clothes. A leather jacket and a white shirt. Before he even walked out of the changing room he pulled out his mask and put it on. The Smiling face. His go to mask. Well, it was more of a helmet. But that didn't quite matter. He stuffed his clothes into his backpack and put his gloves on, so he wouldn't leave fingerprints anywhere. He really needed to get to that address. So he began walking, following street signs and maps. This was so different from America, he oddly liked it.

Smokey was out in the freezing cold, she was finishing up her latest piece, it was her well known symbol, she smiled as she did the final touches. "There we are, lovely" Smokey loved tagging new walls, pulling away her bright pink and green cat mask, she has tagged almost every ally and even some buildings ever since she came to England. Smokeys hands were freezing as she rubbed them together "Merde, il fait si froid, je préfère rentrer à la maison maintenant ou je vais mourir de froid". (Shit it's so cold, I'd rather go home now or I'll die because of the cold)

When smokey arrived home she looked at the dedsec card, "Je ne peux pas attendre pour finalement être un vrai membre, j'espère juste que je suis le seul..." (I can't wait to finally be a real member, I just hope i'm the only one...) Smokey sighed as she put the card down and got changed in a comfortable short sleeve white shirt and some purple fluffy pants. "Let's get to work" smokey said with a smirk as she sat down at her monitors

After a few hours of typing, clicking and crying, Smokey made around 1,000 bucks and got some valuable info, smokey sighed as she looked at her monitor with a sigh, smokey was tired after working all day, she slowly got up and layed on her bed, she pulled up wattpad on her phone, read some lemons and then fell asleep.

Swinging madly with his flaming sword, Morgan charged through the hordes of undead at the grand lich, Necross. Countless rusting blades struck against his Divine armor of the Goddess Vellia, not even scratching him, while the Sword of the Sacred Hero devastated the undead legions with each swing. Momentarily retreating to drink a healing potion, he saw the Lich casting his dark magic, and watched as hundreds more skeleton warriors rose from the earth.

Gripping his sword tighter, Morgan lifted it to the sky and slashed it down, divine light from the heavens imbued into the slash creating a great wave of light that was sent flying towards the legion. As the blade of light carved a path towards the Lich, Morgan followed close behind, striking down the undead who survied the purifying light and dove towards the lich. When the two collided, Morgan's divine sword ran through the undead sorceror as his dark magic penetrated Morgan's golden plate, and everything went black.

Holding the power button, his phone flashed an "out of battery" warning.

When he had boarded the plane back in the States, he had about half of his battery, but playing mobile RPGs the whole ride had apparently burned through that. For a moment, he stared down at the blank screen, then stuck the unusable device in his pocket and left the airport. The note from DedSec had specified a place, not a time, so he felt there would be issue walking there. Glancing up at the sun, he ran a few rough estimates based on the map of london he picked up and guessed he would probably arrive sometime around noon.

Enough time for Lunch, at least.

Grabbing the bag containing his luggage, he set off toward the meeting, after picking up some bills from a nearby ATM. A long walk always included snacks, and without a GPS it seemed likely he would get lost, so emergency funds were necessary.

A young man sat atop the Blume building overlooking the Oxford Circus with spray cans in his hands and a gas mask on his face. He tapped his feet on the ground, keeping a beat to the music sounding in his ears. He tore down the cardboards he'd placed on the billboard and looked at the black and white graffiti with pride. From the poor lighting, it wasn't very visible at the time. "It'll be quite clear tomorrow," the young man mumbled. He put the cans away and folded the cardboards up. Just as he moved to the edge of the building, he pulled a small plastic box from his bag and placed it in the ctOS box. He threw the cardboards off the side of the building before dropping down himself, sliding down the pipe before jumping off to a ledge at the side in front of a window. He climbed down from there by gripping the bricks at the corner of the walls. As he landed, he quickly grabbed the cardboard and stuffed it into the trash before walking out of the alley between buildings.

In half an hour, he was home in his appartment, his laptop sitting idle near the stove where he was stirring pasta in boiling water. "Ow!" The young man recoiled, swinging his hand. He annoyedly drained the water before pouring the pasta onto a plate. He quickly turned to the computer and hovered his hand over the "Enter" button as the white rectangle flashed next to the "/exe" command on what seemed to be a console. After a moment's hesitation, he clicked it and a new read-only page opened where lines of code started to pour down. He turned on the TV before grabbing some pesto.

After a few moments of standing still, the young man mumbled. "Oh... It's tomorrow."

Simultaneously each of the Hackers received an encrypted message, delivered to their respective devices. The sender’s ID simply read ‘T0x1c’, with the message itself was attached an encrypted file with a complex multi-layered cipher that would need to be cracked before it could be accessed. The text simply read:

^{//Don’t be late, cipher is on the Moon Industries central mainframe ;)}

With the message there was a link to a secure client, each of their respective screen names where they could contact each other through text communication.

^{//PIX3L:_
//Smokey:_
//Sisyphe:_
//Argon:_
//3ldr1ch:_}

Cracking the file itself would require the cipher program, which according to the message from T0x1c was stored in the mainframe of one of the biggest cyber security firms in London. To access the mainframe one would have to get physical access, the servers themselves located in their headquarters. There would undoubtedly be many security systems in the building, cameras and security doors, security personal and high level protection on all of their networks.

Smokey received the message and at first she was shocked, then she was intrigued. "The Moon Industries central mainframe eh? lets see", She looks up the company and got a map of its rooms and how many floors it has. "lets see here where are you central mainframe.." after a few minutes she found it on the very bottom floor to the left. "I can probably get to the last floor with a few wounds but other than that, the RC will have to help we get threw every thing else". Smokey gathered every thing she needs and put on her mask, "okay lets see, laptop, phone, RC car, paint bombs, kitty cat hack flash drive, aaaaaand", she looks around and spots her favorite weapon, it was her bright pink broken pool-stick with the bright green nails and glass shards in it. She grabbed it by the 'sweet spot' that had nothing in it and was covered in black duck tape " I have every thing I need, lets go!" She ran out the door and started walking to the Moon Industries headquarters.

(Don't know if i should keep going or not so I will continue but if i'm not supposed to I will just edit it out)

When Smokey was around the building she looked for a open window, SOMETHING that could get her inside, and on the right side of the building was an open window on the 3rd floor, smokey tried to find the room on the map and it was a girls bathroom and there was a fire escape close to that window, she would have to jump to get to it but she knew she could do it, the only issue was the guards that were on the right side of the HUGE building, only four and they looked to be in there 30's, Smokey did a quick profile on them all. She hid behind a bush and threw a rock away from the fire escape, only one checked it out but went back shortly. "Baise-moi" (Fuck me) she would have to take them on but she would have to do an act, she crept to an ally way and then ran out screaming, getting the guards attention. " Leave me alone!" she yelled running to the guards wit her mask off and her hair now down covering her face, There is a man in there that tried to kill me, get him!" All the guards ran to the ally and smokey smirked, as she followed them into the ally, she then hit all of the, constantly with her 'lucky stick' and knocked them unconscious or killed them, she didn't care, she walked out of the ally her hair in its normal side pony, and her mask on, she than begin to run to the fire escape, then she made the jump to the bathroom and made it inside and locked the door. "okay lets map every thing out" she got on her hands and knees and begins marking where she needs to go. "okay I need to go 3 floors down, get past all the guards and do the kitty cat hack so I can get the cipher and become a member of Dedsec and have a happy life! Sounds achievable", Smokey gathered all her things,and hacked some security cameras to see if there were some guards around, there weren't any so she did her best to sneak down to the second floor where there were a few cards but thanks to a fuse box, some bird calls and her lucky stick she got out would out any damage. Onto the main floor which was a bit harder, sense there was more guards around and workers there as well she had to be a bit more careful, she hand to knock out a few guards and before she desended to the last floor she had to get into a brawl with two guards so she got a few bruises and a little cut on her hoodie, but it was fixable. The last floor was gonna be the worst part she she hid in a corner where she knew she wouldn't be spotted and let the RC car out, the RC was black and bright pink, she drove it around, knocking out a few guards with some fuze boxes and then before she knew it, the RC was at the central mainframe, it took a few minutes to get the door open and when the door was open the RC rolled in, and the RC pulled in the drive that had the kitty cat hack in it, throughout the entire building cat videos played on every screen, while smokey got not only the cipher she needed and some more info as well, finally when it was over a thank you was heard threw out the building and a flash of her logo was seen on every screen before the power went out "I only have 5 minutes" she called back the RC car and ran to the first floor with her mask on and ran out the door, running home. "that was AWESOME!" she was jumping up and down in front of her apartment complex. She walked up the stairs and went to her place, opened the door, locked it, and ran to her computer, she went looking for the cipher and smirked when she found it, "found ya" she said with a giggle

[In the chat room]

//Smokey:_ I found the cipher, who will find it next, tic tock tic...

Morgan had just reached MI's main office when his new phone buzzed. Checking it, he saw Smokey's message and, only slightly amused, and sent back on of his own.

//3ldr1ch:_ That was fast. I'm doing NG+ then?

Taking a seat on one of the benches outside, he pulled out a laptop he had picked up along with the phone and ran a quick scan of the network building's cellular network. A few quick jumps, from an employee's phone, to a desktop PC, to the building's security services, and the door was open, and him inside.

Most of the normal employees payed him little attention, proving that his plan of a quiet entry was successful, and he was able to reach to server in good time, minus a few close encounters with overly suspicious guards. As the door to the server room unlocked, he went over to the main terminal and wired his laptop in, copying a few terabytes of data onto a backup drive he brought and left as he had come, quietly walking through the front door.

//3ldr1ch:_ GG friends. The Demon's castle has been raided, and the King has been slain.

Theo pulled up a small bandana over his nose and lowered his cap as he confirmed the credentials on his phone. He checked the cameras only to notice people getting a bit rowdy. He kept switching from room to room until he noticed something. There were cat videos on every screen.

The young man pinched the bridge of his nose, sighing. He pulled up the chat and wrote.

//Sisyphe:_ The videos were a bit much.
//Sisyphe:_ Knowing they were hacked just makes them lock down worse.

He wondered if he should continue but he pocketed the phone and took a deep breath. He took a few steps back before running forward and up the wall for a few meters before grabbing onto a ledge. He pulled himself up to the low balcony quickly and went behind a wall. He waited for some of the white hats to pass through the corridor before calling the elevator from his phone. As the doors of the elevator opened, so did those of the balcony, giving Theo a chance to get in quickly. He looked up the camera of the highest floor, and hacked the security guards' phones to ring before they turned the corner to where the elevator shaft was. As he reached the floor, he quietly ran to the other side of the corridor, making his way around the corner.

Here we go...

As Theo rounded the corner he heard the sounds of commotion from ahead, obviously he was right and Moon Industries security was aware that it’d been hacked. Armed security would soon be swarming everywhere. Moments later a door beside him opened and a pair of guards wielding automatic pistols rushed out practically coming face to face with him. Theo had only moments to react before they did.

As soon as Smokey executed the cipher the encrypted file began decrypting, the progress bar moving fairly quickly. As soon as it was done the file opened to reveal a gif of the Dedsec logo before it changed into a time - 18:00. Now she had both a location and a time, with plenty of free time to spare. Moments later she received a PM on the chat client from T0x1c which read

// T0x1c:_ Well done. See you 2nite.

Morgan soon too had decrypted the file and moments later received a PM

// T0x1c:_ Nice infiltration 3ldr1ch. Be there 2nite.

Argon woke up with a pounding headache sprawled out on the floor of Kotori’s front room in her tiny apartment. He was draped in a blanket but little else and did not feel good at all. He groaned and sat upright and looked around as he tried to remember what had happened last night after volleyball, but couldn’t quite remember. He groaned again as he stood up and began to search for his clothes so he could grab some coffee and figure out what the large number of unread messages on his phone were all about.

Almost an hour later he was sat in the back of a taxi with a cup of Starbucks as he typed his first response into the phone

//Argon:_ Pix, Sy, we in this together?

He looked up as the taxi pulled up outside Moon Industries and he quickly threw a few notes towards the driver and jumped out, spilling his coffee as he did so. As the taxi driver started swearing at him he quickly slammed the door and made his way towards the building as he looked for a rear entrance.

He got the PM and responded.

//P1X3L:_ Yea dude. In a few minuets, look for a large yellow smiling face."

Once he sent it, he looked around and began walking. Trying to look for a sign to tell him where to go. He ended up calling a taxi and said to the cab driver, "I need to get to Moon Industries, now." The cab driver began driving and traffic was annoyingly slow. But eventually he arrived and rushed to pay the driver and get out. Now he began walking towards the front gate and waited for his new partner.

With one hand, Theo swiped on the screen of his phone, and flicked his other wrist, pulling out something from under his arm. The lights on that floor went off. The young man quickly moved forward as two bullets whizzed over his shoulder. He stuck the device under his wrist onto one of the guards. As the man got shocked and fell unconscious, the other trained his gun on Theo. Before he could shoot, Theo pushed the unconscious man between them and at the guard. As the guard tried to balance himself, Theo quickly drew a taser gun and shot the guard. With both of the guards taken care of, Theo ran around the corner of the room they'd left as the lights came back on. He'd gotten behind one of the desks before anyone could notice him. He looked down at the phone and struck a few keys.

//Sisyphe:_ k, in bind, 12 floor, c u soon

A brief smile crossed Morgan's face when the decryption finished and he received Toxic's message, and chuckled when he saw what the others had been chatting about.

//3ldr1ch:_ You should have hit them a while back. Everyone knows that the true enemy of all infiltrators is time.

He paused for a moment to think, then added in one more line.

//3ldr1ch:_ and Smokey, since we're both probably done with the preparations, care to meet up for a celebratory pizza? I'll pay, obviously.

When smokey received the message she didn't know what to think. She was nervous, a HUMAN person, wanted to eat pizza with her! She replied back at an instant

//Smokey:_ Sure! Want to eat at Mario's? (I had no idea what to name the pizza place)

She started getting ready as soon as she replied, she smiled and got into her normal attire, but she dose her best to hide any skin and she puts on her mask, waiting for 3ldr1c to reply so she can go, even tho she is scared out of her wits

Sketcher, Skinner35 & Tsar Gatto

Argon stood for a few moments as he glanced down at his phone. What did he mean large yellow smiling face? A few moments later he saw someone literally wearing a giant smiley face mask of some kind and realised.

Argon pulled his shemagh up and pulled on his sunglasses on as he jogged over to him.

"Eh, hey" he said awkwardly "you must be PIX3L?"

"Yea, I'm P1X3L. Pleased to meet you." He said while looking around.

"Okay, let's get in there fast. Sy is already inside."

With that Argon made right for the entrance. He gestured for PIX3L to wait as he walced inside heading directly for the receptionist who was speaking on a wireless headset. As he did he reached for his phone in his pocket and pressed a few keys. Moments later the receptionist said "Hello? Hello?" as the conversation she was having was cut off.

"Technical difficulties?" he asked with a smirk.

She narrowed her eyes at him for a second before she curtly asked "Can I help you sir?" As he started to talk with her he gestured again behind his back for PIX3L to make his move.

When P1X caught on to his signal, he began moving, sprinting from the entranceway and quietly jumping over the small security barrier towards the corridor where he slid to a stop once out of sight.

Argon took a few moments to talk to the receptionist into believing he was that he was a new coding expert for Moon Industries that was trying to hit on her while he slyly hacked into her computer from behind the counter. A few moments later the list of employee access IDs was in his phone's memory banks.

"Anyway shit, I'm late" he said as he pretended to check the time on his phone. She rolled her eyes as he jogged off and swiped his phone on the ID pad, causing the small turntable to slide open before he disappeared around the corner.

Both Argon and PIX3L made it to the elevator. They entered and pushed the button for the 12th floor and soon were heading upwards. Suddenly the lift jerked to a halt and an alert went off on Argon's phone. He swore loudly, then in the chat client he typed

//Argon:_ Sy, security is on to us. Can u find and reach security console?

//Sisyphe:_ Gimme a min

Theo had made his way to one of the meeting rooms where all the employees had left after the security had arrived. He scanned the network quickly for an admin. After locating one, he stuck a small USB drive into its side. A console appeared on the screen. The young man quickly typed a command and pulled out the drive. The console disappeared and images started to appear on his phone.

//Sisyphe:_ Got it. Floor 10.

As Theo pulled up the camera footage for the staircase, his eyes widened and he started sprinting.

"Pix man, security is on to us" he explained. Moments later the lift jerked again and started to head to floor 10 "My guess is they'll be waiting for us when these doors open". He didn't quite know how to say it, but his expertise wasn't with actually fighting. He slipped on the knuckle dusters he had, wishing he was using it to open a bottle instead.

"You got this right?" he asked awkwardly.

As P1X thought about the situation, he pulled his dual maces out of his bag and smiled. "Yea, I got this."

Theo arrived out of the stairwell onto floor ten. Arrayed before the lift was about fifteen security guards waiting with metal batons. Two of them also appeared to have automatic pistols pointed at the lift as well. Seconds later there was a 'ping' sound as the lift arrived and the doors opened.

//3ldr1ch:_ Sure, 13th street store sound good? I'll be waiting there.

Pulling up a map, Morgan started his walk towards the pizzeria. Judging by the GPS, it would take about a half hour for him to get there on foot.

//Smokey:_ Sure! Smokey has a bit of a walk so she grabbed her art stuff and went to th pizza place

WE PREDICATED THE NEW WATCHDOGS GAME Y'ALL THEY SHOULD PAY OUR ASSES HAHAH WHEN I SAW THAT TRAILER I THOUGHT BACK TO THIS SHIT OMFG
