--- Phoenix Building, West Wing, Lorenzo’s Office ---
*The sun is beginning to set colouring the office an orange hue. Reclining in his chair, Lorenzo reaches out for the communicator he discarded earlier. A faint buzzing sound emits from the device.*
*Lorenzo freezes for a moment, before his expression settles into something more controlled, carefully picking up the communicator to discover that someone had messaged Agent N. His eyes flicker to the sender and frowns ever so slightly, recognising the name. Straightening, he reads over the words*
Agent C [Text Message] : Suuuuuup home gir! :P
OMG theses kids are Soooooo Cute look at em!!!!
*The communicator pings and a photograph of a class and Agent C smiling happily appears*
And there so eager to learn about our world! And all i had to do to get them motivated was do a magic demonstration and summon my familiars. And they were eating it up! Oh and you were right starting them off with just peek their interest made things alot more interesting :3
So how are things on your end?
Lorenzo [Inner Thoughts]: If he doesn’t get a reply, he’ll know something is wrong with N. If he know’s that, then Pandora definitely will know. I can’t allow that kind of interference. N has already caused enough problems with her traitorous actions. I should be able to mimic her messaging style, looking at her past messages…
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: What, you doubted me? :P told ya itd get em interested. As for me, not much has changed yet. No changes. Im running out of ideas tho. Might just need inspiration? Any ideas?
Agent C [Text Message]: you could always seduce him with your feminine wiles pft!
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: what, like lay over his desk with wine ready to pore an a rose in my mouth? Lol
Agent C [Text Message]: hahahhha *slaps knee* as hilarious as that would be…. I don't think it would work on ‘Papa’ but by al means give it a try and tell me how it goes hahahaha i'm totally sure it would be a riot sending him with a somewhat confused and deducted look hahah no, no i got it!!!
Do it while hes in a meeting or something hahahah it would be priceless :’D
*Lorenzo twitches ever so slightly at the thought, before taking a shuddering breath and, inwardly cursing as he knows what N might say, he responds.*
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: OMG, i can see the meeting one! I think the phenix agents have a heart attack or something. Maybe i should do it! I’ll send pics! Can you imagine their faces? Lorenzie might just hit his head on the desk hahahaha!
Agent C [Text Message]: Lol, oh n i got some news on the kid you were looking into… well… it's not pretty. Look i don't know what or how much information you can get over there but. Form my finding… the kids and those similar… long story short that agency kidnapping them and turning them into sleeper agents, no dolls would be the better word.
I knew our enemy was bad but… i never thought they would do something like this. And as much as i’ve tried i can't get the poor kid to nap out of it. Can't even get it to gain full consciousness. It's like in full zombie mode. Sad :’(
*Lorenzo pauses, his eyes fixed on the sleeper agent part of the text*
Lorenzo [Inner thoughts]: Sleeper agents? What sleeper agents? Have the higher ups been working on something without telling us? Dammit, N already seems to know about this, so I can’t ask here. But even so, sleeper agents have a job, usually, not just being zombie-like….
*Hesitantly, he types again*
‘Agent N’[Text Message]: have we found everything out about what they were meant to do? Could be that they stuck something in their head that they haven’t got to yet and that’s why they’re not snapping out yet? I don’t want to think that there’s nothing anyone can do. Or am i just hoping for some good news here that i'm not gonna get no matter what?
Agent C [Text Message]: you and i both know that it's not that simple…. But to humor the parents we gave them scans… *sigh*
Have you heard about the spell Yotsobi and Cusobi?
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: no, what?
Agent C [Text Message]: ….Well there obedience spell Yotsobi, even if you try your best to rebell absent it as long as the spell caster as a higher will its unbreakable. Cusobi… to destroy the soul. It's said only high ranking spell caster closest to a god can create that. I was wondering you said before that Phenix rebelled against the gods so why are they in cahoots with them it doesn't make sense…. Right?
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: some demigods can sometimes tap into godly powers, but
*Lorenzo doesn’t sent this just yet, a frown on his face. Was it possible that there was someone in cahoots with a god? Or were they somehow manipulating a god to help them? It was worrying...but Lorenzo couldn’t help but wonder if C had an inkling that it wasn’t N on the phone and he was….trying to trick him?*
*Finally, he continues the text*
‘Agent N’ [Text Message]: do you want me to see if i can dig up anything? There’s been no hints of any gods at this current level, but if i’m careful enough, i might be able to get lorenzie to spill something. You know that if a god was helping, he wouldn’t be too happy. Then again, if i manage to show him enough evidence, he might be more likely to help out, if only to spite whatever god’s involved. Is Cusobi related to any god in particular?
*C’s reply confirms his suspicions.*
Agent C [Text Message]: …. PFT…. if you're so curious why don't you confirm it for yourself. And if you must know any hack god can cast either spell both are needed for absolute control over thuse blest with free will. Is a basic spell that god's learn when they're young like us learning how to walk it's just fundamental. And for a let's just say human they would need to be a god's vessel. -.-’
Now ‘Papa’ i’m assuming she's still alive, i'm assuming she just can't get to her comunicare right now and i'm assuming that she's unharmed. Because if she isn't… well we both know what i'm capable of. +.+
*A crashing sound can be heard from the window behind him, the glass shatters, letting in a chilling breeze. Lorenzo hisses slightly, knowing that this was a threat from C. He wants to locate the man, but another message comes through before he can*
Agent C [text message]: dont worry ‘Papa’ if you want me to drip feed you the information Mama hasn't told you… the same info that your loving Phenix is hiding from you then just read this.
*The communicator pings several times as files are downloaded to it. It crackles and buzzes again, as if trying to connect a call*
*For a moment, he hesitates, unsure if this will result in some kind of virus or destruction of any information inside the communicator. Since his cover was blown, however, he doubted that he would be able to use the communicator the way he wanted. Cursing quietly, he takes a chance and opens the files. Thankfully, there is no virus, and C had indeed given him files. As he read, his eyes grew wider and his face became paler until he shoved the communicator away, shaken.*
*A voice comes from the abandoned communicator*
Agent C [voice]: Well, I hope it's an interesting read for ya, Lorenzie. It sickened me to my core, what your agency is doing. But from your reaction just now, there seems to be some semblance of humanity left in ya, so maybe there is some sliver of hope for both you and theses poor kids anyway. I have to go, I'm turning off the communicator for now and wiping out all the other info apart from the files I sent ya…. By the way, you should really check up on your partner. It seems some of your boys are getting excited.
*With that the communicator buzzes again and shuts off*
Lorenzo: ...N…
*Ignoring the communicator and the shattered window, Lorenzo bolts from the room.*
--- At the same time that Lorenzo had first turned his attention to the communicator, N was also facing her own dilemma ---
Agent N: Lorenzo…. Am I too late? Are you that far out of my reach? Please, tell me it's just a lapse in judgment, that you not so far gone as too-
SFX: Pow!
*N receives a sharp kick to the stomach*
Phoenix Agent 1: Aw, did little miss big mouth get a tummy ache?
*She drops to the floor, clutching her stomach, the overwhelming moment shocks her and she struggles to stand*
Phoenix Agent 2: There's no one to save you now. Seems the boss gave up on you. Not so tough once you knight gave up on you, huh?
*She holds back her tears, but, as if on cue, the pair began mercilessly attacking her*
Agent N: …. I can take it…. I can take on anything they throw at me… but to have you abandon me, Lorenzie, that's what will kill me…. But I guess it's over now. I can't stand, I can't move. And my vision, it’s getting dark… Well, I guess I’m already in hell, so I guess I know what to expect when this mundane shell of mine finally breaks… Hahah...ha...ha...
Phoenix Agent 1: I think that’s enough. Just bind her hands. It won't be fun if she dies out right.
Phoenix Agent 2: Sure, I wanna have a little fun next time. I haven't used any torture techniques in a while.
Voice: Hey! What do you think you’re doing!
Phoenix Agents: !!!
Lorenzo: Well? I’m waiting.
