Ficool

Chapter 15 - The Hacker

The cell was closed, and Indhra was locked. Indhra, while being hidden from the guard, removed a chit from his right pocket.

He opened it to see text written with a black marker, which said,' You can trust me, I rigged it.'

********

It was day 4; only 2 days remained before Indhra's execution. 

" Did you hear that Akuma is back to normal?" It was a worker who was sitting in a rotating chair, in front of him were many televisions, which showed the view from the cameras positioned across the castle.

There was another person beside him, also sitting on a rotating chair. Hence, two workers manage the camera, or you can say the security system of the whole castle. Pretty less people for such an important system.

The other person said," Yeah, it's good, isn't it?". The person sitting beside starts to talk, but then he hears a glass shattering sound from behind.

He stood up, took a gun out of his holster, and asked the other guy to defend him from behind. The other guy stood up too, taking his gun out. He pointed it towards his comrade to defend him. 

He then suddenly felt a hand grab him. A hand blocked his mouth so that he couldn't shout to his comrade for help. 

The person was Albert. He takes a knife out of his pocket and stabs it in the worker's neck, causing blood to scatter all over Albert's face. He keeps the corpse behind a big crate, big enough to hide the corpse. 

The other person sensed it, and he looked behind to see blood on the floor. " Shit!" He thought in his mind, he had messed it up badly this time. He pointed the gun front.

He heard something from his left side, but it was too late now. Albert's knife pierces through the person's brain, causing him to die instantly.

Albert stood up from behind another crate, which was a bit away from the crate where he hid the worker's corpse.

He pulled the knife out, which was pierced deep in the worker's face. Blood starts to pump out with some brain fluid like a fountain. Albert sees a bottle of water kept on the table below the television.

********

It was clear ground with a wall behind where Aldred and Kyra were sitting. There was a big vent behind them. 

According to the map, this vent will directly lead them to the prison. 

They were both waiting here for the call from Albert.

" What are your thoughts on what we are doing?" Asked Kyra, curious to know Aldred's point of view as he acts neutral. She expected him to say,' We are doing what is necessary. ' But the answer he gave was pretty different.

" *sigh* I am a bad person, that's what I think. I am probably going to kill a lot of innocents who have no reason to die." He looked at Kyra with a smile," The thing is, everyone is bad at something, and I will too go to hell, of course, only if it exists."

Kyra blushed hard; she didn't expect something like this. 

" I...love you, Kyra, you already know that. I just want to say it again if I don't survive." There was a silence loud enough for them both. 

Aldred's phone starts to ring from his left pocket, which was a sign that Albert had succeeded. Aldred throws the phone down and breaks it.

Meanwhile, Kyra was opening the vent from down. " Well, I guess it is time." Said Kyra with disappointment.

Kyra goes first inside the vent, and it is claustrophobic inside. Then Aldred entered the vent and closed it. 

Kyra started to move while crawling.

********

Albert washed his face with water from the bucket and also washed the worker's face so that he could remove the hand marks on it. 

The monitor screens were off with the camera turned off. Albert quickly opened his mobile and dialed Aldred. After some time, he bashed the phone on the ground, destroying it. The downside was that this technique made a lot of noise.

He quickly kept his knife in his pocket and started to walk nonchalantly to the exit. 

He closed the door behind him. The security system was located just behind the prison, but it was quite far away from Indhra's cell, which was why Aldred chose himself and Kyra to do this job.

He started to leave for the side entrance where Amanda was located. However, the sound made was too loud, and it would reach him.

Suddenly, two people arrive in front of him, holding a gun, pointing it towards Albert. They were guards.

Albert lifts his arms and says," There is no reason to kill me, think for yourself." The guards were unfazed. One of them replied," Oh, we have plenty of reasons to kill you, you betrayed Taka, killed two of our people, and sabotaged us." 

Albert agreed, even though he felt bad for killing two innocent workers who were just doing their job, but did he have a choice? He said," Well, you still can't, you have to take me alive so that you can interrogate me, right?" He asked even though he knew the answer they would give.

" Shut up!" The other guard said. He instantly shot the gun. Albert quickly tried to dodge, but it was pretty much impossible; the bullet hit his right arm. He quickly used his right hand to take a gun from his pocket, and he shot the person who shot him in the head.

The other guard quickly hid himself to the side. There were two pillars attached to the wall sides where he hid himself. His heart started to beat quickly. He saw his comrade die in front of him. 

He gulped while thinking about his comrade and his family. He looked at him," Oh, Henry, you messed it up!" He thought in his mind," Why the hell did you let that bastard kill Robert?". Hence, his name was Henry. 

He started to tear up while thinking. His eyes began to get watery. A tear came out of his eye.

********

A cave present in the outskirts of Tokyo. There was no sign of water near the cave, but a few people were inside. There was light, which was coming from a campfire.

There were three people in the cave. 3 people, their voices sounded like they were kids.

All three of them were sitting on wooden crates surrounding the campfire. 

All three of them looked poor and dirty. Their clothes were ripped and looked old. One of them stood up.

" Look, we don't have enough bread anymore; it will only last a day more, so we have to steal some food and get the hell out of this place." He said, No wonder he sounded like Robert, but a bit younger.

One of them was a girl who asked," Really, why so quick?". Robert looked at her and said,

" I... kind of have a secret because of which they are chasing after us". He went back to where he kept his backpack.

He opened it and took a map out. He spread the map on the ground and called the others. He said," Look at the green places I marked, that's our goal."

The green parts were marked on the Kyoto part of Japan, the Shanghai part of China, near the Indus River, and the Berlin part of Germany.

The other boy asked," Which part? I know it is Kyoto, but just asking." Robert sighed and just said Kyoto, but their main goal was the capital located near the Indus River.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind, scaring their ass out.

" Who are you guys?" It had a funny tone, not a scary one, but somehow it felt scary.
