A/N: I'm sort of going to not write a lot about Edward's time at Wilderness Camp because to tell you the truth he's only going to be there for maybe one more chapter because I plan on having him a part of the whole scheme that is to come. I'm really going to focus more on what is happening back in Forks for now. Sorry if that disappoints anyone and just so you know I may change my mind later on.
Edward lay on top of his sleeping bag looking up at the stars that littered the night skies.
"You know what I don't understand?" began one of his new friends Mike "what?" Edward replied "why parents think sending their kids out into the wilderness to 'be one with nature' is suddenly going to change their attitude towards life I mean seriously if anything its just made me resent my old man even more" Mike said as he made designs with a stick in the dirt.
"Yeah well some parents believe that if you send a kid out into the real world they'll suddenly have a completely different attitude towards as you said life take my parents for instance, they sent me here because I quote 'they couldn't handle me anymore' but I see it as more of them giving up on me. This is my third time in a Wilderness Camp and yet nothing seems to change because I have a pretty good feeling that when I turn eighteen I'll be spending some quality time in jail" Edward said as he went over his constellations in his head.
"You never did tell me why your parents sent you here" Mike commented as he wiped the pattern he was making out of the dirt with the end of the stick "I didn't did I? Well I guess since we're going to be stuck with each for a couple of months I might as well tell you. I hacked into a company called FLEMKAR and downloaded this project from they're systems, long story short they found out, got pissed and about two days ago I was arrested" he concluded.
"A hacker huh? Never would have guessed" Mike said while chuckling "yeah why? What did you think I was sent here for?" Edward looked away from the sky and over at Mike "well no offense but you look like the type that got caught breaking and entering" Mike answered "no offense taken in fact I have been arrested a couple of times for something like that" Edward answered.
"What about you? What were you sent here for?" Edward asked "one too many felonies of breaking into my high school and disfiguring the principal's office" Mike answered sheepishly "oh so you're the breaking and entering guy" Edward couldn't help but laugh.
One of the counselors walked over to them. "Okay you two its time for bed" he said then walked back over to his sleeping bag and crawled inside it "well you heard captain forest, see you in the morning" Mike got into his sleeping bag "yeah, see you in the morning" Edward got into his sleeping bag and looked up into the skies while waiting for sleep to come.
~The following morning in Forks~
Bella walked into the somewhat out of place coffee shop and over to her waiting friends, with her laptop in its black carrying bag.
"Hey Bella do you mind telling us what's going on? You sounded urgent on the phone" Rosalie said as she took a drink of her coffee. Bella took a seat across from her next to Emmett who was chewing on a toothpick.
"So you all know how Edward was sent to Wilderness Camp right?" she looked at Alice for confirmation and she nodded her head "yeah Alice just told us. Something about Edward hacking into a company and downloading something?" Jasper said "yeah but wait till you see what he downloaded" Bella took her laptop out of the bag and set it up in front of her.
Once her computer was started up she put the LSB in and clicked on the program. The screen filled up with the plans called BLACKBIRD.
Emmett read some of the plans and all he could muster was "whoa" he looked over at the others "you guys might want to check this out" Bella turned the computer around towards them and the three looked down at the computer, silently reading the plans to themselves. Once they were finished they leaned back in their seats.
"That is the most insane thing I have ever read" Jasper stated, "yeah if I didn't know I'd better I'd say someone was pulling my leg" Rosalie added, "well unfortunately this isn't a joke and I don't know when but its going to happen and I think we should stop them" Bella stated "what can we do that the police can't?" asked Rosalie "easy, we can hack" Alice said using Bella's own words.
"So let me get this straight, your suggesting that we hack into this company and put an end to their dirty deeds?" Emmett said, "That's exactly what I'm saying and maybe something else along the way" Bella replied with a devilish smirk. "My, my if she was evil before then you must be the evil twin that sneaks out every once in a while" Emmett joked. "So are you guys in?" she asked. They looked at one another as if having a silent conversation with one another then Emmett turned to her "we're in" he said.
"Excellent! Now we're going to have to plan this out to the last detail because as we all know hacking isn't exactly legal" I said "and that makes it all the more fun" Alice said. Jasper planted a kiss on her forehead and she snuggled up closer to him.
After finishing their coffee they got up from the booth and left the coffee shop. They walked over to Emmett's jeep that was just big enough to hold all of them and drove off to Alice's house.
"My parents aren't going to be back until next week because they're on they're honeymoon in Maui so we have the house to ourselves" Alice explained as they drove up to her house.
"Oh yes…all to ourselves" Emmett said suggestively while wiggling his eyebrows at Rosalie who playfully punched his arm.
Once they reached the house they got out of the jeep and entered the house.
"Gees Alice I knew you were loaded but I never thought you were this loaded" Emmett remarked as he looked around the house "yeah well my dad bought it because he says that a beautiful wife and wonderful children should be surrounded by beautiful things. Even though I think the latter was once in a blue moon" Alice led them up the stairs and into another room that had shelves of books lining the walls and an old mahogany bed in the middle.
"This is Edward's room, I figured that if we were going to do something like this it continue in the area it first began" Alice walked over to Edward's bed and sat down.
Bella felt kind of awkward standing in Edward's room while he wasn't there. It's funny this was no the kind of room she thought she would have. She expected posters of bands; laundry littering the floor and maybe even a few sports trophies but this was not what she was expecting at all. This showed a guy that looked sincere, educated and maybe even a gentleman.
"Stop gawking at the walls and come and join us Bella," laughed Emmett. She snapped out of it and walked over to them and sat down on the bed.
"So before we officially get started I think we should do some more research on our soon to be victims" Rosalie said as she picked up Edward's laptop and turned it on.
When the computer was on she typed in the company and the company's website. She scrolled down the screen.
"Okay it says here that the company in Port Angeles is run and operated by a man named Mr. Leroy Parsons. The company was originally run by a woman named Elizabeth McGillians but she mysteriously disappeared about twenty years ago and after only two weeks they stopped searching for and announced that she was dead," Rosalie said.
"Do you think this Parsons guy had something to do with her disappearance?" asked Jasper "its possible I mean look at this" she turned the computer around so that everyone could see "this company earns over 2.1 Billion dollars a year and when and if the company is ever sold that amount could triple making the owner a very, very rich man" Rosalie said.
"So I don't get it, why rip off the entire United States when your all ready pretty much a billionaire and risk losing it all?" asked Emmett "because you could have all the money in the world, but yet you'll always want more" Alice answered "that was a very sophisticated answer Alice" said Emmett "I have my moments" Alice replied.
"Back to business you guys, anyways I was thinking that we could hack into their systems like Edward did only I'll use my new program so that they can't rack us and then we'll download all the information we need like the blueprints of the building, the people who work there and all the money that has been coming in" Bella said. "I don't know Bella it sounds kind of risky I mean yeah I'll help but if this guys a billionaire then god knows the type of punishment he could inflict upon us if he catches us" Emmett said uncertainly.
"I know the risks but Edward found something that could put all of our families in danger of being put on the streets and I say that we need to make sure that the only people living on the streets are these guys" Bella answered.
"I guess I can mess around with their security" Emmett said "okay now here's your guys assignments. Alice you and I are going to go up to that Wilderness Camp and get Edward, Jasper you'll be in charge of figuring out the weakest area of their soft wares and once you've found it Rosalie and you are to use my program and find out all the details we just went over. Can you guys do that?" asked Bella. "Mame, yes, mame" Emmett said with a mock salute.
"Come on then Alice, we've got a hacker to save"
A/N: I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and I probably could have gone into a little more detail about the plan but I want to keep your guys' interest so I've decided to prolong the actual operation. REVIEW!
