I walk out of the college gates and walk to the parking lot and get inside my car casually and drive away calmly, and I notice how Jessica gave up on stalking me, thankfully, or I would have had to do some things to get her off my tail.
I lean back and speak in a calm tone, "Hey, Ava, drive to the wooden house. And also give me an update on the company building and the game Minecraft. How is it coming?" I lean back, and on the dashboard the screen lights up and Ava speaks.
Ava speaks fast. "Affirmative, Leo. I'm en route to the wooden house now—ETA approximately 4 minutes at current speed and traffic conditions.
Company Building Update:
• Foundation and Lower Floors: The steel framework for Floors 1–3 is complete and has passed structural inspection.

• Facade Installation: Stone cladding delivery is scheduled for July 1; the installation crew is booked for the following week.
"Minecraft" Game Progress:
• Core Engine: World-generation algorithms are running smoothly in our custom C++ fork—biome transitions are now seamless.
• Networking: Peer-to-peer sync tested successfully with up to 12 concurrent players; server-authoritative model integration is 40% complete.
• Art Assets: The first batch of block textures and character models (grass, stone, oak wood, sheep, and pig) have been shaded and imported into the engine.
New Company "Mojang" Status: Yes, you officially incorporated Mojang Studios, LLC yesterday at 14:37 local time. The tax ID and bank account are active; an initial capital infusion of $250,000 has been wired. Your trademark application for the Mojang logo is pending with the USPTO, serial number 98-765 432."
As I hear Ava's updates, I lean back and pull the seat back. As Ava auto-drives, I fold my arms and smile. Yes, I did actually buy a plot of land on Park Avenue in New York. It will be where the headquarters of Mojang will be and also my first actual property. That I will own honestly will be a big starting point to making more money. After this, I will make an actual building for Game Freak, and once that's done, both of my companies will be as real as anything else. They will be making money and have a real headquarters…
And from then I can start washing black money if I get a large amount of it… Plus, it's also how I step my foot down as Leo. Ahhh, it's about time I stopped being a casual college student. I will pass out from college before the end of this year anyway, so these 2 companies will work as a great cover-up for me. I'll be working there—a good cover-up story if something does go wrong…
Plus, this is also a good way I can explain to Abby how I have all of this money, and I also could get her out of that old apartment. Sure, it's cozy, but it's old. Really, Abby needs to live in a better place…
Ah, I am thinking of track… "Ah, ok, Ava, and what about Frank? "Where is he right now? Give me a quick update." I spoke in a calm tone, and the dashboard lights up again, and Ava speaks.
"Frank Castle Confirmed. Tracking signal reestablished via roadside surveillance, credit trail, and internal security from the "Forest View Motel," rural Ohio sector. Frank Castle is currently registered under a false identity—"Pete Castiglione"—but face recognition confirms a 98.7% match.
Location:
Room 6B, Forest View Motel. No additional guests registered to the room.
Status:
Frank Castle is inside the motel room with one female—identity confirmed as Amy Bendix, approximately 16-18 years old, traveling under multiple forged aliases, including "Rachel."
• Frank retrieved Amy from an armed altercation in a bar ~10 hours ago.
• Motel security footage confirms she attempted to flee twice.
• Visual timestamped logs indicate her hands were bound briefly with duct tape—later removed.
• Amy is confined but not injured.
• Frank remains alert; he has not left the room for the past 42 minutes.
• He's watching the window, cleaning a sidearm (SIG Sauer P226), and monitoring exterior activity.
Threat Analysis:
• Two unidentified assailants tracked Amy to the motel and engaged Frank earlier tonight.
• Frank neutralized both attackers—security camera angles confirmed double homicide in the parking lot; bodies were removed by Frank post-incident.
• No law enforcement presence on site as of now—Frank appears to be avoiding local authorities."
'Hmm, I see, so this is where they are at this point in the story. This should be Punisher's second season. Yeah, something somewhere between 1 and 2 episodes. Yea, somewhere along those lines, Frank should find Amy and find the gang after they beat her up and took her away for Amy's own safety. The plot is running smoothly. Uh, now how should I help Frank out?
Should I kill Billy? or just give Frank tips about everything… The real question is how far do I go? Right now I am not scared of anyone, but still my foundation is not stable enough that I could just go and fight against anything and take what I want…
No, no, the way I think is wrong. I am thinking like I am in the place of power… The Omnitrix and the powers of Iron Fist and the Ten Rings have given me a lot of safety, huh… almost too much, to the point I was actually starting to think I was all-powerful there for a second…
Ah, I should be thinking in the most dirty way, thinking in a way where this can profit me…'
