Commander Ayja opened up her Vantablack laptop and logged on in order to contact the Impostors who were living ninety miles underneath Kalidah's surface. She figured that now would be a good time to contact her kind and inform them on what had been happening lately.

"Good news, Ultraviolet," Commander Ayja began to speak in the Impostor language. "None of the people here at I.C.E. have any clue who I really am."

"Excellent," Ultraviolet replied in that same Impostor language. "Keep up the Commander Ayja disguise for just a little bit longer. We need more time to plan out the invasion. When it's finally time, you will have to give the signal so we can replace them all one by one."

Ultraviolet was the leading drone of the Kalidahn Impostors, only one spot lower than the Kalidahn Impostor queen. He wore a helmet extremely similar to the one Red Eye wore, except it was a vivid shade of violet and the "eye" glowed a brilliant blue. He was also much slender than Red Eye was, with the rest of the suit looking exactly like the one Red Eye had, only with minor changes.

"Thank you, Ultraviolet," Commander Ayja said. "Just let me know when it's time, and I'll do as you say."

Ultraviolet gave a thumbs up. "That's exactly the plan."

"Thank you." Commander Ayja looked back at the conference door. "Alright, it's time for me to go. I think I hear someone coming."

"Take care, Prit Stik. We will let you know when it's time. Godspeed."

Commander Ayja nodded. "Godspeed."

With that, Commander Ayja ended the video call and quickly closed the laptop. Just then, the conference door opened to reveal Jinjur and Ojo.

"Commander, what are you doing in here?" Jinjur asked.

"Nothing special," Commander Ayja lied, having reverted back to speaking in English. "I was just checking my e-mails to see if we'd heard anything about Tyrmric."

"Well, have we?" Ojo asked as well.

Commander Ayja shook her head. "Unfortunately, no. Though I'd like to accompany you two to hospital to visit Tyrmric if that's okay."

"Of course it's okay," Jinjur replied. "Tyrmric thinks the world of you, Commander. She'd love if you visited her."

"Yeah, when do you want us to take you, Commander?" Ojo asked.

"Oh, wow, um…" Commander Ayja had to think about it for a minute. "How about... Friday?"

Ojo gave two thumbs up. "Sounds good to me."

Jinjur turned and made her way for the door. "Alright, I guess we'll meet you at hospital, Commander. Until then, see you later."

Commander Ayja waved at the two I.C.E. agents as they left the conference room. "Alright, it's a deal."


Victor, Anita, and Ayja were still situated inside one of the loo stalls in the gender-neutral bathroom, wondering what the next step in their plan was. Ayja, in particular, was anxious to try to warn everyone about the Impostor who had assumed her identity. However, she wasn't sure if anyone would be willing to believe her, so she asked Victor and Anita what she could do instead.

"Maybe we could sneak into the conference room and find something that can help disguise you," Victor proposed.

"And why do you suppose we do that?" Ayja asked, skepticism evident in her voice.

"I'm not sure, actually. That's the only room I could think of right now."

"Well..." Ayja pursed her lips together in thought. "The only real time we use that conference room is for emergencies, so I guess we could find something to help us in there."

"There you go."

"Wait, what if it turns out we're not the only ones in there?" Anita couldn't help but ask.

"That's a risk you and I should be willing to take," Victor replied.


Once they were certain the coast was clear, Victor, Anita, and Ayja all managed to sneak inside the conference room and take a look around. At first glance, nothing seemed too out of the ordinary. The furniture was exactly where it needed to be, everything was kept nice and tidy, and there didn't appear to be signs of a struggle or anything.

"Well, I guess I was wrong..." Anita muttered.

"So how long do you think we should stay in there, Victor?" Ayja asked.

"Just until we can figure out how you should move around without people getting suspicious," Victor replied. "I'm sure we wouldn't want people thinking you were the Impostor."

"True, true..." Suddenly, Ayja noticed the Vantablack laptop that the Impostor had somehow forgotten to bring with her. "That's odd. I don't remember that laptop being there."

"What?" Victor turned around and caught sight of the Vantablack laptop. "Whose is that?"

"I'm not sure," Ayja replied. "But whoever was using it must have forgotten it in a hurry. I bet if I can log into it, I can get to the bottom of what they were up to."

And so Ayja opened up the laptop and was able to log into it without even needing to enter a password. It didn't take much time for Ayja to dig into what that laptop had been used for. As it turned out, the person who last used it was indeed an Impostor, one who went by the name of Prit Stik no less.

"Incredible..." Ayja murmured to herself while Victor and Anita just watched. "But who exactly was Prit Stik contacting?"

In just a few seconds, Ayja was able to start another video conference with Ultraviolet. To say that Ultraviolet was slightly confused by what had unfolded before him would be an understatement.

"Prit Stik, why did you contact me again?" Ultraviolet asked in the Impostor language. "I thought I made it clear we didn't need you yet."

"Erm, sorry, sir," Ayja quickly apologized. "I just managed to capture these two humans after our video call. I was under the impression they knew too much and so I wanted to take them back to you."

"I see." Ultraviolet left in a brief pause. "Well, good work, Prit Stik. You're even more useful than I thought. I'll be right down to pick you and your prisoners up and take you down to the lair."

"Alright, thank you, sir. Godspeed."

"Godspeed."

This time, it was Ultraviolet's turn to end the video call.

"Alright, so..." Ayja began to speak to Victor and Anita. "I told the Kalidahn Impostor leader that you two were my prisoners, and now he's coming to pick us up and take us down to the lair ninety miles underground."

"How do you understand what he was saying?" Anita asked. "And how were you able to speak Impostorese?"

"Well..." Ayja's eyes darted down to the ground. "We Mombis are the one that made the Impostors into what they are now."
