Joaquin examined the piece of seemingly scrap metal at his laptop that bore what could possibly a terrifying truth in his hands. Sarah Ragas: a woman whose genius made Max look like a crusty special Ed student in comparison. Who, as everyone knew, was the true face behind Conqueror of All Worlds.

Before his thoughts could carry him into this revelation any further, Angie came storming into his room. Out of breath and drenched in sweat, she looked like she had just run a 10k.

"Jeez, Angie. I when I told you to hightail it I meant get in your car." Joaquin said with a snide grin on his face.

Angie face palmed herself as she thought of what she could have done to avoid looking and smelling like a high school full backer. "Ohhh. Well- whatever, what was the news you were talking about?" She nearly snapped; half at Joaquin's snide remarks and half at her own impulsiveness. Crap, Dante was having more of an affect on her than she thought.

Joaquin handed her the piece of scrap metal from his hand. Angie took it and began to analyze it. "Sarah Ragas? What's Michael's older sister's name doing on this thing?"

Joaquin gave her a dull stare. "Uh, duh. Maybe because she owns it?" Angie gave him an punch to the arm. "Don't get smart with me."

Joaquin rubbed his arm while mumbling "Don't get stupid with me." "What?" Angie egged on. "Nothing. Anyway, what do you think about this?"

She shrugged her shoulders as she sat on the couch next to his desk. "I don't know. What did you find?"

Joaquin turned to face her. "Here's what's up. Sarah Ragas was the one who originated Conqueror of all Worlds. She created the story and the characters while Max simply provided the funding and computer sciences. After the game was perfected, Max hijacked her ideas and made billions off the game, while leaving her none. It's so devilish it's almost awesome. Still pretty messed up though."

Angie didn't really find anything awesome about this. If all this is true, then that means that the Leak was created by Michael's older sister. If that in turn was true…."Do you think Sarah tried to kill us?" She whispered to her younger brother.

Joaquin tsked at her. "Oh, sis. You're missing the bigger point of it all. That Leak was a MonstraSnouzer. It can latch on to even an hint of scent faster than I could a bowl of ice cream. That thing must have smelled Max on you guys…for whatever reason." He concluded.

As annoyingly smart as Joaquin was, something still didn't add up. "Okay Lord Omniscient, where exactly would that thing get Max's scent from in the first place?"

Joaquin waved his hand dismissively. "Later. You know what? I'll tell you if you tell me how Max's scent got on you."

Angie gave him a dark glare that let him know that he'd better watch what the hell he was implying. Knowing this, Joaquin threw his hands in the air defensively. "Hold up, Angie! I'm not saying you and Max did anything, I'm just wondering where the smell came from."

Angie wasn't gonna tell Joaquin that the four of them hosted a party at Max's house. The little squirt in him would be all to tempted to snitch on them to Max.

"We were at Max's house." She finally said. "Doing what?" Joaquin edged on.

"Planning for another Leak attack. You see how well that turned out." Angie said. It wasn't a complete lie, they were talking about Leaks when Philbert decided to skate off of Max's huge staircase.

"Now, are we going to just sit here or should we go tell the guys?"

A dark gaze fell on Joaquin's normally carefree countenance. "When I see Dante, I can't promise that won't fight him over this crap between you two."

"You can do with him whatever you want after this crap is settled with." Angie smirked at him.

The two left the house and went back to Baer's to retrieve Angie's car.
