Blackmail: Chapter 1
ERROR!
ERROR!
HACKER DETECTED!
I gasped as an electric shock from the sensor sent waves of pain
down my spine. I growled and gritted my teeth. Whoever was
hacking my program would pay dearly
I typed in commands quickly , trying to intercept the attack ,
but failing miserably. I groaned, looking as the screen turned black
then lit back up, showing the face of my enemy.
"Hello, Kaiba-girl!" Pegasus said cheerfully.
I muttered swears under my breath, most of which were in German.
"What the hell do you want?" I snarled, gripping the armrests of my
chair with clawed hands.
Pegasus pouted.
''I just wanted to chat. I hope you weren't doing anything too importent".
I snorted.
"Oh, just playing mine sweeper, the usual. "I said sarcastically, ripping off the sensors on the back of my neck, and forehead.
Project Radon wasn't anywhere close to being completed, and I was already in a bad mood. Pegasus did nothing to improve this. In fact, he made it worse.
"Well, let's cut to the chase, Kaiba-girl!
I've a proposition for Kaiba Corp. that I'd love to speak about with you and that brother of yours!"he exclaimed.
"Cut the crap, Pegasus!"I snarled
"You're not getting kaiba Corp, so leave us be!"
Pegasus waggled a finger at me.
"Ah, ah, Kaiba-girl, never say never!
I just have an idea that would be positively astounding if it were put into action!"
-Hmmm…..-
It's a trick. Its gotta be a freakin' trick, but still, I needed info so I could report back to Seto.
"Im listening." I said, leaning back in the swivel chair, hands behind my head.
I felt a bit nervous considering who it was I was speaking to, but I was prepared to shut off the laptop webcam at any moment, and run to get Seto.
"A merger!"Pegasus said grandly.
"WHAT?"
"A merger, Kaiba-girl. You do know what one is don't you? You being
the sister of a CEO." He said in a bored voice.
I just stared at the man.
Was he crazy? Definitely a possibility, after all he's done, a certainty.
Industrial Illusions merge with K.C? I couldn't even imagine it!
If I told Seto, he'd blow a fuse for sure! And Mokuba….he'd be terrified!
No. Way. Over my dead and decomposed body.
"Hell no!" I shouted at the screen.
Pegasus shook his head. Chuckling softly.
The sound sent chills down my spine, and brought back long buried
memories. 3 years worth of 'em.
"You assumed I was giving you a choice in the matter. But im not."
He held up a sheaf of papers for me to see.
"You see, Kaiba-girl, I have the blue-prints for the new Duel Disk
Kaiba-boy is designing. Wouldn't it be just a shame if I had my manufacturers build it, and have it advertised worldwide! Opps!"
He said gleefully while I just stared at the papers anger etched on my face.
"How the hell did you get those!" I screamed. Those blue-prints were
Under lock and key in the most secure vaults in all of K.C!
Pegasus smirked.
"Oh, I have my ways, Kaiba-girl. I have my ways. Now, be a good sister
And tell your brother to meet me on my island by Friday to get his papers, and sign the legal documents for the merger. As if he has a
choice!" he laughed uproarasly and my screen went black again.
I closed the laptop.
What can I do? Today was Tuesday, I only had 3 days to come up with
A plan! I sighed.
It couldn't be helped.
I had to tell Seto, but first…..
I grabbed my office phone and dialed for Roland.
"Yes, , what is it?"
"Tell the head guard of the vaults he's fired." I said, and hung up the
phone.
