Mika: Here are those files that you asked for
Butterfly: Thanks
Mika: Sorry it took so long, there where some pretty heavy security systems
Butterfly: I really appreciate it. Any luck getting his IPU?
Mika: Nope. It's like this guy didn't exists online
Butterfly: He did. You know it, you've spoken to him.
Mika: I know. It's like he deleted himself from all database memory
Butterfly: Could have done.
Mika: How long's it been?
Butterfly: Few years, the days all seem to blur together so I can't be sure.
Mika: Why don't you just give up?
Butterfly: Never
Mika: But it's been so long
Butterfly: I can't give up on him!
Mika: I know. how long have you been online?
Butterfly: .
Mika: B!
Butterfly: Not long, only ten hours.
Mika: GO TO BED!
Butterfly: I have to keep looking
Mika: Just go to bed, it's already 3AM
Butterfly: Fine then.
Mika: Goodbye
Butterfly: Bye.
Butterfly has left the conversation.

Katie pressed the off button on her computer. She flopped backwards, landing on a carefully placed bed.
"Goodnight, Tommy." She patted a framed pictured of her older cousin that sat on her bedside table before drifting off into an uneasy sleep.
++++
"Katie! Get up!" A voice echoed from upstairs four hours later.
She grumbled and rolled out of bed, landing with a thud on the basement floor. "I'm up, Mom!" She called back. She rubbed her eyes and peered over at the clock. Twenty minutes before the school bus arrived. Plenty of time.
Twenty two minutes later she ran out of the house, slamming the door behind her; only to see the bus driving off into the distance.
"Dammit!" She swore loudly, kicking an empty coke can down the road. Now she was going to have to walk al the way to the subway station and catch a train to school. She really hated living in the suburbs. Why couldn't she live in a lovely basement apartment right in the centre of New York City, just like Tommy had?
++++
"And what makes the common ant so interesting is." The teacher droned on and on. Katie had stopped paying attention just after he's called her name during the register. There was no point to biology, especially when it was about bugs.
She had printed off the files that Mika had given her earlier, it had taken longer than usual thus being the reason she had missed the bus. However; the files were worth the wait.
A copy of a phone call from a phone that didn't exist.
She knew that just before her cousin had disappeared he had been seen talking to someone on a cell phone. A phone that was not his and didn't seem to have any number, user or owner.
It had taken her a very long time to find someone with the hacking capability and right connections to get the copy of what was said during that phone call. Mika had pulled through, eventually. It wasn't a direct copy of the conversation, just a word for word on what was said. But it would do, for now.
"Miss Anderson." Katie snapped out of her system of highlighting the paper in front of her and looked up at her biology teacher. "There is somebody waiting for you outside."
Katie shoved her notes into her bag and slung it over her shoulder. She could feel the gaze of the rest of the class on her back as she made her way towards the door. But she didn't care, none of them mattered.
She shut the door carefully behind her, the class had already begun to watch the next set of slides and she didn't want to make them miss any precious notes.
"Hello Butterfly," a woman's voice said.
Katie looked down the corridor to see a woman dressed in black leather sitting on the bench's a few feet away.
"Hi," Katie replied; a little cautious of the woman, how did she know her name? "Who are you?"
"My name is Trinity. I know who you're looking for."
"You do?" Trinity, that name was familiar. I had to be a fellow hacker.
"I was once searching for him too." Trinity placed some sunglasses on the tip of her nose and pushed them on. "You'll find him when you're ready."
That's all she said before jumped out of the second story window, landing on a motorbike and driving off across the football pitch.
