Back at Sergeant John's office, he played a video recording on his television. The video showed the events in Nathan's raid against the police station. Nathan's identity was covered due to his mask and hoodie, but John was watching the recording with suspicious eyes.

He took a picture from his desk drawer. It was of Nathan in his debut video. Even though Nathan's upper half was covered, the similarity of his cargo pants and boots, both in the video and in the picture, was too much to go unnoticed. With that said John calmly put the picture back.

With a deep breath, he began to think.

A random fridge and weapons appearing and disappearing and stealing stuff that can't be carried by normal people.

While recalling what he saw in the video, like a child, he couldn't help but chuckle.

Haha...Do you honestly think your mask would fool me, Nathan?

"You've been hiding this from everyone, Nathan, but you might be a blessed human, huh? If only you'd died long ago, things wouldn't have become so terrible." He said before leaning back in his chair. "Looks like getting in the country's way must be in your bloodline, Nathan."

Currently at the warehouse, the members that were away were Jack, as he had left to help 'complete the mission' and Charles, who was out jogging to keep up his physique. Zack was playing an online first-person shooter on the television, while everyone else was doing their usual things.

"Olivia, we're going on the road." Ada suddenly said. A look of worry came over Olivia's face upon hearing that.

"W-where are we going...?" Olivia asked.

"I was just thinking that we should help cause some more discord in the society."

"O-Okay..." Olivia said before leaving the warehouse with Ada. With a look of skepticism, Nathan watched Olivia as she reluctantly followed her. Now, it was just Zack and Nathan in the warehouse.

"Hey, Zack," Nathan called. "You know how Ada's always writing in her book...do you think she's up to something?"

"Huh, why do you say that?" Zack asked, not making eye contact from the video game. "She probably just likes writing or something--HAHA! GET REKT SCRUB!" Zack assumed as he trash-talked the opponents he was playing against.

"Sigh...what do you think of Ada?" Nathan rephrased.

"I think she's a good leader...and a...beautiful person too."

"Tsk...what a useless answer." Nathan bluntly said with annoyance dripping from his face. "Would you stop thinking with your emotions and think logically!?"

Not that anyone around here thinks logically...all a bunch of crazy people.

In response to what Nathan said, Zack placed down his controller and turned to him, giving his full attention now.

"What do you mean? I am thinking logically." Zack said. "I'm not sure what interactions you may have had in your life that made you skeptical, but I'm sure Ada's not like that."

"...And how are you so sure of that?"

"I just...don't get any untrustworthy feeling from her...and besides, we're all friends here now, aren't we--"

"No, we are not friends," Nathan interjected, not letting Zack finish. "I'm not friends with you, psychos."

"Uh...my bad." Zack nervously responded before awkwardly turning back to his video game.

Olivia was currently inside a car driven by Ada. While Ada was humming, Olivia maintained a nervous expression throughout the ride.

"W...where are we going?" Olivia inquired, initiating a conversation.

"Remember I said that I thought we should also help." Ada reminded her. "Plus, I thought that they wouldn't want a leader that doesn't do anything that deserves the role." She explained before going back to humming.

"I...I see, so, h-how will you...sow discord...in the society?"

"I made some calls with people I knew in the past...they'll be helpful."

"Oh..."

An air of silence filled the car before Olivia continued.

Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author's consent. Report any sightings.

"I-Is your intention...really for the group's...benefit?"

Hearing those words, with a confused expression, Ada looked to Olivia.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Before Olivia could explain, ringing could be heard in the car. It was Ada's phone.

"Huh?" Ada checked. It was the developer. Unlike in the court, he's saved in the phone as 'Developer' and no longer an unknown caller. She answered.

"Hey, hey, Ada." He greeted.

"Since when do you call and not just randomly start speaking to us?" Ada said.

"Sometimes I decide to be polite...but that's not the point. I know what you're up to, Ada."

"Oh? Is that right?" Ada asked with a daring tone.

"Of course, I would know what my game characters are up to...but I won't stop you or anything. It'll make for a good storyline to the plot!"

"I see. Well, thank you for not stopping me then."

"Yeah, and make sure to complete your little side quest since you're starting one...good luck!" He said before hanging up.

Once again, there was a few moments of silence.

"So...judging by that phone call, you probably will assume that I'm up to something bad," Ada said to Olivia. "There's no point in explaining anything to you of all people...so all I'll say is this..."

"Never forget Olivia, just because you got bullied, you poisoned many of your fellow university students and received the death sentence for it...I've told you this before, but no one will accept, or be friends with you, except for me, Olivia. So all you need to do is shut up and keep being my obedient little pet, and I'll never leave you."

Throughout her speech, while holding back tears, Olivia wanted to get out of the vehicle. Right now, she wanted nothing more than to leave. Olivia was also hyperventilating as Ada was talking. Her words made Olivia remember things she wanted to forget.

"Y...you...you caused the poisoning." Very softly, Olivia stuttered.

"What did you say?"

"...nothing."

"...Heh, that's what I thought," Ada said, immediately reverting to her friendly demeanor.

Up ahead were soldiers, inspecting the vehicles of drivers.

"Damn, looks like we won't be able to avoid them all...gimme my mask and hoodie, quickly...and put on one for yourself," Ada instructed Olivia. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Olivia composed herself and did what she asked.

Ada received her black hoodie from the hotel stay, along with a theatre mask. It was grey, with the happy side of the mask being light grey and the depressed side being darker grey. Olivia had a similar mask, but hers only had a depressed expression. They put them on, and Olivia made her way to the soldiers.

"Hello, before you can proceed, we just gotta make sure you are normal civilians." A soldier explained as he approached Ada's side of the car.

"No problem, sir!" Ada responded, her voice filled with politeness.

"Uh, could you guys take off the mask and hoodie...I can't see your identity."

"Oh, I'm so sorry, sir, but we are both shy. However, I can assure you that we're both upstanding, law-abiding citizens!"

"Hmm..." With suspicious eyes, the soldier stared intently.

"Won't you let us through?" Ada asked.

"...Alright, you guys may go past."

"Thank you so much!" Ada excitedly expressed her gratitude before driving off. "Always too easy...take this back," Ada said before giving Olivia the hoodie and mask. The remaining drive was met with complete silence until they arrived at an inner city-like area.

"We finally arrived," Ada said. They both came out of the car and Olivia was immediately surprised at the sight.

A town containing a high density of run-down buildings, civilians dressed in ragged and dirt-ridden clothing and a lack of color or modernity to be seen anywhere. Olivia couldn't help but wonder if this was a place that Ada, of all people, would associate herself with.

"What are you standing around for? Come on." Ada said, snapping Olivia out of her surprise. With the onlooking eyes of the civilians, less because of them being criminals, but more so the cleanliness and beauty of their clothing, they made their way to a specific building in the town.

Unlike the rest of the town, you could immediately feel a sense of richness from it. It was a mansion that had multiple expensive cars parked in the yard, as well as, recreational items like a pool. Ada and Olivia made their way to the gate, and they were met by a man in a black suit, presumably the security.

"Hey, my name is Ada Foster, and I'm here to see your boss, Leon Carter."

"Hmm...the boss is not expecting any...visitors." The security said.

"Don't worry, just call him...I'm sure he'll remember me."

"...Wait here." The security said before going inside the mansion.

"W...Who are these people?" Olivia asked.

"Some old friends," Ada responded. In no time, multiple men came from the mansion. They were all wearing black dress shirts with grey pants and grey dress shoes as if it were a uniform to them.

"No way...it's Ada! She escaped prison!" One of the men excitedly shouted. He was a fairly tall man with brown neck-length hair with a goatee. There was not much variety to his facial features as his eyes were the same color as his hair. The rest of the men with him had shared the same joy upon seeing Ada.

"Yup, Ada here in the flesh. It's good to see you again, Leon." She greeted him with a warm smile.

"Who's the other one with you?" Leon asked as he was looking at Olivia.

"Oh, this is my friend, Olivia Gray!"

"Wait...that's Olivia Gray!?" An individual standing beside Leon asked, as all joy immediately ceased from everyone's faces. "Isn't she the one that caused you to go to prison...?"

"Oh, Frank...uh...well..." Ada said, seemingly not finding the words to explain. Frank angrily made his way up to Olivia.

"There's no way someone can screw over Ada like that and get away with it!" Frank snapped. Olivia, in response, was reaching into her bag as he got closer. She had a crazy look in her eyes.

"Wait, calm down! Olivia's my friend!"

Frank had already got close enough to attempt to throw a punch at Olivia, who at the same time was about to pull whatever she was going to from her bag.

"BANG!"

With the sound of a gunshot, Frank had dropped to the ground.

"AAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"

Frank screamed out as he was clutching his right leg. Bloodstain dyed his pant leg. Leon was also holding a pistol in his hand.

"I gave you a chance, Frank, but there will be no second chances if you inconvenience Ada like that again," Leon warned him. He quickly turned to Ada with a genuine smile. The other men beside Leon quickly picked up Frank, who was still groaning and brought him to the mansion.

"Because of your intellect and compassion, Ada, we owe you everything, so I'm sure that you forgiving Olivia and taking her in is all a part of your planning and empathy."

"Of course!" Ada responded with elation in her voice.

"Pardon my asking, but do you need anything in particular now that you're here?" Leon asked.

"Well...I do have an idea that will benefit you. How would you guys like to grow this 'business' we built?"
