It makes me smile. “Well, I want to emphasize to everyone to be accountable in their own decision. Make them realized that we all part of decision-making process. Every voice should be heard.”“Are you not afraid that giving this opportunity to them which means sharing your power with them?” He cannot look straight into my eyes.It was so easy to presume. He did not act on his own. This interview could be a trap. Or to test me. A cunning device of the council.“I do not believe in the word power. We have different positions, but each position had an equal importance to attain our common goal.”“What your plan for the Visionaries? What things we can expect from you?”“Expectation means pressure.” Smiling at him. He felt embarrassed from his question. To make him comfortable. I laugh at him. “You are so serious. I am just joking. I know what you mean by that. Of course, it is very clear to me what our goal. We need to eradicate the system implement by the Atheos. To punish all members
I smile at his reaction. Even before he decodes the files, I already laid some precautionary measures regarding my privacy. There is nothing to worry about my security. But I follow in what he said. “What is your deduction based on your investigation?”“I found out that they are spyware embedded on our communication. Someone might listen to us.” He almost whispering to my ears.I distance myself a little bit from him. “We had the same assumption.”“Do you mean you already know about the spyware?” He is confused for my action.“Not as clear as your report being presented. I had the suspicion, but I cannot pinpoint where is the main problem. It is the reason that I needed your help.”“What are you planning to do with it?”“I also want to correct you. It is not someone. But I had a suspicion that we should refer it as something. It is not a person. It is machine.”Mr. Scarface could not comprehend what I am talking about. He fell silent. When door automatically open. One of my exp
“What do you mean? I have not done anything to harm you.” Trying to calm her down.“Nothing? Huh. Why you give me the full authority in managing the Health and Nutrition Department?”“Well, it is because I fully trust in your ability.”“Full authority. Are you aware what it means?”“Yes, I know. Giving you the full authority, it is means you does not need my approval. You should feel happy about it. And does not need the council approval to execute your plan.”“That is the problem. You are leading me into a delicate situation. You do not have any idea how the council run.”“Listen. I am fully aware of the council. I already make them understand what my reason for giving you the position.”“Of course, they agree with you but how about their feelings. They felt that I get this position because of you and my brother. Not because of my own ability.”She is finally sitting in front of me. Her voice became relax, now.“Yes, maybe. But they had no authority to question whom I trust.”“Talkin
“Just wait and see.” Dean assuring her.The time has finally come. It is for Mr. Scarface moment; he entered some keys. Our attention is now on the monitor.In the monitor, we can see the whole city of Luna. It shows the different key location of Atheos. A total blackout, people running to all direction. The authorities of Atheos could not control the sudden confusion among its people.“How long it will take?” I am now, looking to Mr. Scarface on my right.“For a couple of minutes.”“It will be enough?”A ticking sound is running on our background. Dean is busy working on our main communication system.“Yes, I already calculated the time. It is enough for me to fix, our communication system.” He did not look at us while talking.“I think that you are the one who need to prepare. As long Dean fixed our communication devices. There is a need for you to address our people.” Mr. Scarface is now mocking me. While he is looking at Zyne. “You will need an acceptable reason so that people wil
“We should expect that it will happen. There is not enough reason for us to make. We need to face.” Avoiding their questioning look.“It just a simple blackout. Why it led to this kind of tragedy?”Zyne questions wake us up.“I admit, I did not expect that sabotaging their power supply using malware can cause a massive damage.” Mr. Scarface scratching his bald head.“I do not want to make any assumption without a careful investigation.” I could finish my word when Dean call my attention.“Ishvi, the council is requesting your presence immediately.”“They could not wait any longer?”“No, they are bombarding me with messages requesting an urgent meeting with you.”“Can I make any excuse? The preparation is still not yet finished.”“Preparation for what? What are you thinking of?”I just keep my silence.As we expected the emergency meeting with the council could no longer postponed. I understand what they really feel. There is an agony in waiting. An outsider making big decision, of cou
“Please, continue…” As I sit on my chair. He handed me down the files of the investigation.“The explosion was made by the supporters and family of Minister Aidelb. They want to force the Atheos to avenge the death of the Minister. It is the reason for the sudden decision made by Prime Minister Reginald.”“He wanted to appease his supporter.” Closely watching all the evidence presented by Dean. “He is so afraid to lose their support.”“Not really… It just Minister Aildelb holds much information against him. We are talking his crimes committed against the people of Luna. Declaring war against us, is the only way he can save the Atheos to crumbled. He holds many dirty secrets that we are expected.”“The family of the late minister knows this but remain silent?” I looked at him.“They chose to remain silent. Not until now… That they can
“It is means waving a full-scale war against them. We are not fully prepared for that….”The council members are all bickering to each other.“I am not saying that we will implement the plan. All I want you to be prepared.”My words calm them down.“Okay, give me twelve hours. I will do everything to rescue, Mr. Scarface.”When everybody is already left. Dean came closer to me. “Are you sure of that ?How do you think you can locate Mr. Scarface?”“I will use one of my tricks.”“What are you talking about? And I also want to remind you that you are not permitted to leave . How can you possibly locate Mr. Scarface?”“You do not need to remind me. And I have no plan to leave this place. But I needed your help.”“Sure, anything I can do.”We are now , walking in an underground tunnel under our base. “I am
“Yes, I am. It is part of the plan. It is the only way we can gain enough time to rescue Mr. Scarface.”“How do you do that?”“Remember the robotics mosquitos. I turned it into a bomb. To paralyze the system of their vehicle.”“What a brilliant plan.” He patted my shoulder.A moment later. The young commander is running toward me.“Sir, here are the lists of the passengers of the military plane.”“Thank you, very much.” As I slowly reading the name one by one. One name caught my attention. “ Major Vanhur?”The name I mentioned make Dean turnaround. He almost steps away from me.“What? Did I hear it ,correctly?”“It sounds familiar to you. Major Vanhur?” Looking at surprised face of Dean.“Yes, it is. Major Vanhur is one of the sons of his excellency Reginald.”“That will be the
