( ( Electric shock sound ) )
The pink glasses slide down from Mickey's nose due to the sweat on his face.
Mickey is exhausted as hell. His energy is getting drained more and more. But the outcome is worthy.
Because Mickey found it.
All of Bett's memories that he wants are being selected and passed through his body.
“ GUH! ”
He releases his hands, Toshi came up behind to carry him.
Roxxy automatically lends him a note and a pen.
Mickey takes them and quickly wrote down everything he had heard and sketched out everything he'd seen.
Sera noticed that everyone around her keeps their mouth fully shut while Mickey's doing his job. So this means Mickey puts all his concentration in it. She better not bother him.
However, her curiosity makes her want to know what's happening?
So she asked Syd in her lowest voice.
“ What's he doing? ”
“ He is writing down everything he had seen&heard through her memory. He needs a lot of concentration so that he wouldn't forget it...”
“ What is that mean?”
“ Have you ever dreamed?” He asked.
“ ...yeah? ”
“ When is the best time you can accurately remember what's your dream about?”
“... If I ignore the worst nightmare which I can remember, I would say...immediately after I wake up? ”
She replied.
“ Yes. This principle applied the same. After Mickey dives under the target's memory, he can forget when the time passed by, let's just say 10 minutes, because those memories weren't his. So his brain wouldn't bother to remember it for long, like how you try to remember what was your dream 2 days ago, The faster he finds a note and writes that shit down, the more accurate these information will be.”
He explained.
“I see... I understand... So it's like writing down what you'd dreamed in your notebook?”
“ Precisely.”
Not for long, Mickey finished.
“ What do we got? What have you seen?”
Asked Roxxy.
“ This woman...*gasp* ... Her real name is Betty Domergue! *gasp*... Man, she's an absolute fucking bastard! ... Fuck... You need to see what she had done... I saw her... betrayed so many people!! She shot them in the back a lot!... Selling drugs... Selling human... Even worse!!! AHhhHH!! She's a whore! My eyes!!! She uses Sex just to make many of the influencers listen to her! And....... Shit...”
“ What's more?!...”
“ I've seen a group of people and Toshi! You're right... I saw she took the pill! That exact same pill in the suitcase!! and...and ...uh, this man.”
Mickey points down to the sketch. It's a man's face.
“ He-He- He's like her boss or something...I'm not sure... But she does respect this man so much...”
Syd then asked:
“ What are they talking about?”
“ He's giving her a suitcase! A pill!... She gets the pills from this man! and I saw a big circle table... Everything was dark as fuck! It was like Uh, A fucking, Uh... Meeting of some JamesBond Villian organization or some shit...and... I saw a Kid! She's a kid with orange hair! ”
Mickey points down to another sketch. It's a picture of the middle school girl, she has orange hair.
Mickey continues explaining.
“.... The man's name is... Uh--- Candy! And this girl's name... Fuck! It's starting to fade out!... Uh-- Sal-- Sally something! Bett and this man want to obtain this kid so much... She has a very strong feeling to like... Get this kid under her control! ”
“ Oh, shit. We got a new clue, are we?”
Toshi said.
“ And the map! ... The Map, Syd! ”
“ This? ” Syd brought up the United Kingdom map he found in Mr.Collin's office.
“ Yeah! That one ... I saw Bett Moretz using that Orange hair kid to read her a map! I don't know why...”
“ What?... she used the girl to read her a map? Why? She can't read it herself?!... And why the hell's that girl? ”
“ I guess the map you're holding hides something that couldn't be read with our bare eyes... It needs some special device to read...” said Mickey.
“ Oh...And the last thing I found was France!”
“ France? A country?”
“ Yeah... The feeling she had that time was...This girl and Candy... They had something to do with France! ”
?!?!?!
Everyone was shocked.
“ France???”
Said Jody.
“ I-I don't know... But At least those people had something to do with France! ”
Mickey said.
“ How about the Monter? Have you seen anything?”
Syd asked.
“ That's what I said! I only saw that... Big meeting...”
“ That big round table?”
“ Yeah. I can't remember all the faces... They ain't even speak English! The memory is very blurred!”
“ That's all?”
“ Yeah... That's all.”
Mickey replies Toshi.
He then turned to Bett Moretz who's now in between dead and alive after facing an electric shock.
“ This Bitch, still struggle even I got into her brain... She can't be bought... She is truly loyal to the man name Candy...”
Mickey added:
“ The feeling she had towards that man is a business partner, I guess? ... It's very complex as fuck dude, but she's fucking loyal to him. That's all I could tell.”
“ We should find a man named Candy. And that orange hair girl...”
Roxxy then put down her laptop and let everyone sees what is on the screen.
It's Betty Domergue's blacklist profile.
Betty Domergue.
Born March 22, 1976 (Aged 43)
Nickname: Bett
High: 11' 4
Weight: Unspecified
Wanted for: Murder, Drug dealer, Influencer behind Italian Mafia gang.
Selling weapons to terrorists in the middle east.
“ This is top secret in the CIA blacklist document. I kinda doubted if she's the real one...but now I'm certain,” said Roxxy.
“ What a mighty piece of shit.”
Said Syd.
Roxxy then picked up Mickey's sketch, she said :
“ I'll look for this man Candy and the girl, Sally, something... Toshi, come help me.”
Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere.
“ Understandable.”
Toshi carried Mickey's body and dropped him on the chair next to Sera.
“ However, We'll hand her to the HQ. They have better professionals back there. I will send them what you've seen. And if what she says doesn't match yours... ”
Roxxy paused.
“What will happen?”
Asked Jody.
“ I don't know. But she'll likely be disappeared. The council will decide her fate.”
“ What do you mean by disappearing?”
“ Dead. Without no one knows where her corpse at... Or even worse.”
“ ...Oh...”
Jody and Sera were traumatized. This is like in Mafia movies they've watched, except it's happening in front of them and is operated by something scarier, more powerful, and a hundred times more influence than the police, government, or Mafia gang.
Especially, Seraphina Gilmour she never went through anything like this before, Jody too. But at least Jody had killed someone before, so she can handle things like this better than Sera.
Mickey next to her knows what Sera is thinking.
So he suddenly speaks:
“ See, this is how the real power looks like. Not like some delusional kiddo, thinking their parents are rich and full of power without even realized how small they really are.”
Said Mickey.
His words got on her nerve.
“... Are you assaulting me?...”
Asked Sera, bit her lips.
[https://i.imgur.com/QcNSjwK.jpg]
“ Just sayin'. If you have the power to rewind time, you can go back and listen to it. I never said it was you. Otherwise, you're that person... so you get offended because I told the truth.”
💢 appears on Sera's face.
“ Anyway, has anyone ever tell you that your hair color looks like a toothpaste? For real miss, you look SJW activist.”
Mickey said, sliding his office chair away from Sera... No...out of the garage, leaving Sera standing there, boiling.
“ LMAOOOOOOO.”
Said Syd/Toshi, chuckling.
With embarrassment and anger. She knows he did say it to her face. She can't take it anymore. She needs to fight back.
“ HEY! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! Where you going! Come back here! HEY! ”
She follows him out of the garage.
Syd walks next to Betty Domergue, he needs to move her from this chair and tied her up properly so that the agents who're coming here with the purpose of transporting her back to HQ, can easily carry her and do their job faster.
“ Jody! Come help me carrying this bitch. Ughhh... She's heavier than she looks.”
Syd holds under Betty's shoulder.
Jody follows up and holds Bett's's legs
“ Move her out this chair and tied her up.”
“ Okay...”
(While carrying and dealing with Betty.)
“ Speaking of SJW shit, they're most in America, right? ”
Syd asked out of sudden.
“ I don't know...but why America?”
“ Well, it's the most freedom place in the world? And that freedom is what creates that kind of people. I'm not interfering with your country's politics, but too much freedom isn't a good idea doe.”
“ You seem to hate Social justice warrior, Syd. What's wrong with them? I mean, I've heard of them from the internet but I don't know who they are so...”
“ Well, the first thing first, these groups of people try to fuck up literally anything that exists you know what I'm saying?”
“ Really? ” Jody twisted her eyebrows.
“ Shortly explanation, Jody, they kinda want uh, transgender... Homosexual... Black people, Asian...lesbians...Gay... LGBTQ things... to have more power or screen time in our society...they want to insert more genders which are not, you know, White Male...in every goddamn movie or video games and any media.”
“ Sorry but...Isn't that a good thing? It's already in 2019. Everyone, every race, every gender is equal now... What are you, Syd? People from 1887? ”
“ Yo.” Syd paused,
“ Have I ever said that I'm against those genders? ”
“.... Oh....” Jody realized.
Syd continued talking, also tiding Bett.
“ Of course this idea is good, though, the way they kinda treat them is... fucking ridiculous. You will know as soon as you watch those media that got SJW-ed”
He added:
“ Have you watched Starwars 8? or The Terminator dark fate? Ghost Buster maybe? ...Batwoman? ...Captain Marvel? ... All these franchises got ruined by SJW, they tried to fight against racism, but instead, failed by their own hypocrisy and hatred.”
“ Well, I don't know about the other 2 but I've watched Starwars 8, I just realized by the time you say... Like 70% of that movie population is a woman.”
Syd the asked.
“You wanna know why? 'Cuz they are forcing others to embrace all these ...bland asses fantasies and will call us incel if we don't like it.”
“ You seem likely to not like them very much...Syd... Now I ain't making an excuse for them...okay?...just asking. Have you ever questioned yourself if you don't like movies with female leads or something like that, Syd? I think I've also seen the comments on twitter like you... In my opinion, I think people who hate movies with female leads... most of them are men?... ”
“ Why do you think like that? ”
He asked.
“I don't know, I'm not a movie geek, and I'm not feminist...( I don't even care about them ) but I assumed they feel like...uh, women...or other genders... shouldn't have more power than men? So they get frustrated? .... I guess?...”
“Kill Bill is led by a female protagonist... Wonder Woman also leads by a female protagonist. Jackie Brown's main character is a black woman. John tucker must die is a story of women standing up against the cheating man. Han in fast&furious is Asian. Django unchained main character is black, Lucy steel from Japanese manga, Steel ball run, is a good example of a strong feminist character, She doesn't even have any power, but in order to protect her husband from getting killed, she overcomes her fear of death and risk her life so many times and becomes even mentally stronger than the main character himself.”
“......”
“ See? It's not about gender. But it's about how you 'present' them to the public. I believe that each gender is born to fulfill each other. There's always something one can do better than another.”
“ Hmm, I see... You got a point...”
Josy nods.
“But if we look deeply, it was the male that treats other genders like shit in the first place. Marie Curie, the only person to receive 2 Nobel prizes by discovering the radioactivity, was rejected by the french academy because she's a woman. Emmy Noether, one of the best physicists who suggests the relationship between the conservation of energy and the symmetry of the system had to study by herself because the college didn't accept women at that time. Many Abrahamic countries create a cruel punishment for homosexuals in the past claiming they're against nature. Not gonna lie but even today they're still many people being racist bastards. So... We can't escape the fact that it was us who create these culture of racism in the past. However, it gets better from time to time.”
Finally, they both managed to put Betty in the car and locked her up inside.
To prevent the unexpected situation like she uses power to getaway.
“ Phew... Jody, you're enough for today. You can go rest now. Go grab something to eat. Roxxy has brought me some nice Thai snacks, In case you wanna try, go on...”
Said Syd.
“ What about you? ”
“ I'm waiting for those men. This is 2:37 a.m. now, they'll be here at 3”
“ You want anything? I can make it for you, you know?”
“... K. Anything but Vegan food.”
“ Alright~....”
Jody walks into the house.
.
.
.
.
The fridge is opened by the only American in the house.
She looked for stuff to eat and then something catches her eyes.
“ Woah...”
Her eyes sparkle, this is the first time she has seen it.
“ SYD! ”
Jody carried this thing to the garage, however, Syd, Toshi, Roxxy, and Mickey (still on the chair) were busy having a conversation with a couple of agents who she didn't even notice when did they arrive.
They are carrying Betty's and after they finished. The same thing happens, the agents and Betty disappear from them by teleporting.
Jody thought that one of them, or both of them, have the power to teleport.
“ ... Oh, they're gone? ”
“ Yeah. They've escorted her back.” he said.
“ Now, let's take a rest. Roxxy will take care after what we're going to do next.”
Roxxy nods.
Jody had realized that somehow, they have already cleaned up the garage.
And everything has turned back to normal.
“ So... Syd, This is... This is really Asian rice?”
And there it is. What Jody had found in his fridge is rice.
“ Yeah. Imported from my hometown.”
“ This is the first time I found rice that ain't Mexican! ”
Jody looks like she wanna taste it.
Sera next to her looks pretty excited as well.
“ Woah... So this is Asian rice?? Are they the same one as Asian restaurants around here? ”
“ Nope. Even better.” He said.
“ Yeah... I heard that Asian people eat rice every meal, is that true?”
Sera asked.
“ Well, Rice in Asian is like Bread and butter for western. Right, boys? ”
Toshi and Roxxy nods down,
“ I can't live without rice.” Said Roxxy.
“ If my house was on fire, the first thing I'll grab is my wallet, my phone, and rice cooker.” Says Toshi.
“ Asian without rice is like gun without bullets. But not gonna lie, Japanese rice is the best of all.” Syd claimed, proudly present with his Asian gang.
“ Bruh, These motherfuckers once eat bratwursts with rice and sweet sauce in front of my face. You guys can't imagine how pissed I was at that time.”
Mickey said.
“ Still Better than you who put ketchup over pad thai.”
Said Roxxy.
“ Hey! That time I didn't know about your culture, it doesn't count! By the way, Jody, don't you see a pack of Durian on the fridge? I think you may like it”
Mickey asked.
“ D-Durian?!... Wow. I never tried that before!! I heard that you either like it or hate it, I wanna try.”
“ Oh-no-no-no... Jody, Sera... You guys ain't ready for that stage yet. The first time Mickey had a durian, he fucking vomited!”
Said Syd.
Seraphina bursts out a laugh.
“ Really?!... Ahhahahahaha!! He did that?”
“ Yeah, bruh, On my fucking shirt.”
Toshi added.
“ What'cha laughing HUH?!... If you try it, you won't be any different from me!”
Mickey shouted to Sera in embarrassment, he then added'
“ It smells kinda disgusting in the first place, though, I forced myself to eat that for a while... And then finally, I was used to it and it became fucking delicious. Bruh, I ain't even Asian but be with them, I think half of my soul is turning into Asian. ”
Said Mickey.
.
.
.
.
.
After everything is finished.
Roxxy and Toshi turned back to their apartment.
Mickey and Sera left Syd's house.
They had decided that they'll skip tomorrow's class.
Because now it is 3:40 A.M.
Jody is now in the blue pajamas.
She's about to go to sleep, but she wants to get some milk first.
So she walks down the house and goes for the fridge, grabs a glass of warm milk, and about to go back into her room.
She's thinking at least she will wake up in 11 in the morning.
While she's going up, Jody doesn't know what makes her want to peek her eyes over the living room, as she peeks at it, she found Syd is still vibing with his earbuds on the sofa.
“ Huh? ... I thought he was already in his room...”
Jody then gets closer and closer behind him.
And she found something surprised.
Syd is watching Power Rangers.
He does enjoy it so much that it is shown on his face.
Seriously, it isn't youtube's Ad or anything... He really intends to watch it.
“... So... You really like Power Rangers, Huh? ”
[https://i.imgur.com/Kpx2Aj2r.jpg]
Jody approached his back and whispered.
She makes Syd startled.
He quickly throws his phone aside.
“ JODY, WTF WHY DON'T YOU SLEEP YET?! ”
He asked in embarrassment.
“ Same question to you, Syd... What'cha doing...”
“... I just....”
“ Nah, it doesn't matter. I'm now certain that despite your age, you're still a kid inside after all.”
Jody chuckles and turns back.
She's going to go back to her room.
“ Hey! This is a misunderstanding!!! Hey Jody… Listen to me!!! I can explain Hey!”
