Hello world, my name is Humphrey Williams! I am currently looking for a job, open to anything…that has a screen and a keyboard.
_END Log_
Humphrey +
I was walking through my neighborhood minding my own general business…till some guy can over to me. He wore a full tuxedo. I on the other hand wore, skinny jeans of dark blue, red Jogger shoes, and black t-shirt w/ white long sleeve under. "Hello, sir, may I help you?" He answered, "Yes, are you Humphrey Williams?" "Indeed, I am!" He continued, "Great, my name is Jake, Jake Clement! I work for The Hive, and we would appreciate it if you would join me in a meeting. This meeting requires us to bring 'Expects.'" "Expects?" "'Expects,' are people we believe have what we look for. In other words, you're a fine candidate for our taste!", he explains. "Well, I might as well try. I am currently unemployed and wish to no longer hold that title!" "Okay, come with me. Is that your Laptop?", he asked. "No, just my books…" "Books? Still in school?", he asked. "Yes, problem?" Jake soon realizes how he sounded as he asked the question. "NO, no you got it all wrong. We do not care about that! Just surprised Is all." "Heh, good save! Listen , let's just go… Right now, I am missing great opportunities!", I lied. "Haha, I like you, kid! You are bad at lying! Anyways, let's go."
We head to his car parked close by and drive towards "Hive S-9" (S for Sector)
We get out of his car once we arrive at S-9 Cage.(Cage is a sub for warehouse) The place was a Warehouse…
"Is this really the place?" "Of course, we aim to protect people from cyber attacks, but we need to remain hidden!", he answered. "OK, cool." My response was vague with some shock. He opened the doors and we walked inside. Once inside, my shock only inclined from its stump. It was like a Sci-Fi convention but for high tech gear! "Man, this is beyond expectation!" Jake just chuckled, "Yes, we find our time to prepare ourselves with upgrades to our stations! Enough, we are late for our meeting!" We walked into a meeting room, 3 wolves stood there. One wolf to the right side of the table, also wearing a tuxedo, white top and black slacks. He had a tablet, checking on something. Another wolf stood opposite from him. He wore a black hoodie with a skull on it, black w/ white tip Converse shoes, and black normal, fit pants. The last was in between them next to the board they had. He wore long, black coat. Full white shoes, and black slacks. The most important was the middle one near the board. He look at us and then back at the board. "Welcome, is he yours?" I was going to respond but, my eager friend answered. "Yes, sir. I have finally found him!" The man then looked for the projector and turned it on. "Well, my name is Garry, Garry Olsmen. I am the proud owner of 'The Hive.' The Hive is a group of anti-hackers who fight off the very so called, "Cyber-Terrorists" and aim for a better and fine protected online world! See, the real world does not compare to this universe! We are always at constant war with hackers. So in order to take back our servers, we recruit those who are ex-hackers or 'Codies.' Codies are programmers!" I respond, "Ah, so you need me for protection… As a front line for our firewall?" He smiles, "Somewhat, we just need to push them back and put them in their place! Are you with us!?" I smirk, "Of course, I would want nothing but to join your legion!" He just gives me a dry look, "Do not play with me boy! I will keep you down where you belong!" "Thanks, but I did not come here to be lectured for something that most of us are aware of! I just need a job…" He starts the grin, then chuckle, "Is that what you're here for? To get a job… I thought you said he was going to be happy and eager, not a punk!" Jake became worried and started stuttering, "S-sir, he is w-worthy! T-trust me, please!" "Why, he wants nothing but a 'job.' He has no motivation to help us!" Jake whimpered and flinched at his outburst, "P-please, so-he gets interrupted by me- "LISTEN, DAMN YOU! Do you want my help or not!?" Garry starts to come around the very table, approaching me at an angered pace, "Listen you! We are here to stop them from getting to us, the people! You don't seem to understand that!" He responds in an annoyed manner. "Fuck you! They owned the net before we created it! They ARE the people! Your just angry cause your not perfect, news splash! NO ONE IS!" I was about to walk out, when the projector start to project a symbol over sheet he had projected. A skull with 2 red X's as its eyes was projected, than it spoke. Monstrous voice changer, "We are with you! We owned this space before they had the idea of making anything of it! But recruitment is up to you! D-0-3, Humphrey Williams!" The skull starts to fade. "Forget it, you guys are 'corrupted!'" I leave. By the time I make it to my apartment, it was night. I was going to enter till I noticed a envelope with the same skull stamped in the front. "What the…" I take it inside with me and open it. Inside was a letter.
Welcome to your Future!
Hello, if your reading this, you have been chosen! Congratulations and thank you for backing us up. For your loyalty to the people, we are here to recruit you as a part of our movement! Tomorrow, a man in a black hoodie with a skull you saw at the meeting will show, if you accept, shake his hand, but to decline, phrase "The light will shine empty this day." We hope you are wise, we will not force you, you are you and choose your path! Good night, H.W.
Your messenger, Senior Quo.

"Hmph, why not. At this point, I have nothing to lose!
_Next Day_
I woke up, and dressed up. This time I had on red sneakers, black skinnies, white T-shirt, and a Black Nike Bucket hat.
I heard a knock. Must be him, now… I walk over and open it. No surprise. True to the letters word, the same wolf with the hoodie is here. I walk over to him, smile, and shake his hand. As I did so, he slipped in keys and another note. He then proceeded to leave. I closed the door and opened the little note. It was…it was…it was an address. I made coffee, drank, then left for the place. I arrived only for it to be a cage slightly open, I walked in. Lights of a car turned on as I looked around me, only to notice it was a black sedan, I got in, no hesitation. The same wolf was in the drivers seat. He looked over and gave me a binder. He told me not to look until we arrived… I was ready
