Announcement.... "Everyone present here are supposed to go to their assigned location , you will be informed about your job accordingly . operation is confidential and you are supposed to give away all your phones" Abhiya looked around her , she thought everyone would be in panic. But to her surprise everyone was surprisingly calm. Suddenly she felt a tap on her back

VIKAS

This is your first time in the headquarters right.

ABHIYA

Yes . What is going on and why are so many people here.

VIKAS

This is normal protocol here. Everything done here is kept top secret . To avoid any competition from other company

ABHIYA

I can see that but anyone can get bribed and can leak things out . Everyone here are scientist they know what's going on here . They are no fools .

VIKAS

That's the best part . No one knows what is actually going on here . Not even me , we all are assigned specific task to do .

VIKAS (CONT'D)

And we perform it and leave . No one asks anything they are all scientist all they care about is their work and they dedicate their whole life to create something or discover something new .

ABHIYA

Yeah . I have seen many people who don't care about money or anything they just care about science. So you are telling me that everyone is assigned something different so that no one knows what's actually going on . But i think that some people might also be assigned some task that ends up nowhere . Just to confuse , if someone tries to gather all the data of all the experiment and try to find what this is all about .

VIKAS

You are smart indeed . Let me explain it in simple terms . Let's say there are 100 teams made . 70 teams will be given the main experiment or assignment as you might say . And 30 teams will be given some random experiments . So that if someone tries to act smart and gather all the information of all the experiment they still don't end up anywhere.

ABHIYA

But you might be knowing something. You are senior here , you were the head of that cancer research experiment afterall.

VIKAS

(With a smile) you mean the experiment where the main subject ran away at the very end. No that doesn't make me anything. That is another thing they commonly do , as soon as they think someone who is valuable to them is about to leave . They give that person a project to lead , this is just to make them feel important and start being loyal to the company.

ABHIYA

They know how to play with the human brain . That's why they didn't fire you even after all that loss for that experiment. Cause you are more valuable then the money they lost cause of the experiment.

VIKAS

Hopefully.. But i can sense something really big is going on here . I hope it's for the good of people , cause if not then we all are doomed .

ABHIYA

Do you know who runs the company . Cause i don't think the CEO is doing all this . It feels like someone else is pulling the strings .

VIKAS

Is it that obvious. Hahahaha Yes you are right . The person who actually runs this company don't show his face . Obviously, but i have heard rumors that he owns almost all the big company in the world and is always in the shadows.

ABHIYA

You shouldn't have said me something that important.

VIKAS

(Smiling again) Don't worry you would ultimately would have heard this from someone else either way . So , i thought that i should tell you the essential things beforehand.

ABHIYA

So that you gain my trust .

VIKAS

Yes , you are actually smart . More than i thought
