Part 2: Chapter 11: Capture a Terrorist
A year later.......
"Boss," came the voice from Tseng's PHS.
"What Reno?" the black haired man asked back.
"I got a call from Urban Dev. They said someone was hacking into the files earlier."
"Have they got a trace?"
"Yeah. It's traced back to Sector Six. You think it's them?"
"If it is, they're stupider than I thought. Meet you in ten."
"Alright."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
A brown haired girl turned off the computer with a smug look. She'd successfully hacked into Shinra's computer system, allowing her access to the certain files she needed. Boy, Barret is gonna be pleased with these. It's about time we stuck again. It's been pretty boring for the last year or so.
Pulling her hair back into a ponytail, she leaned over, clicking the power supply to the computer off. She then flung herself onto her couch and began looking through the blue prints she had just printed from the Shinra database. She grinned.
"Not too clever are they?" She put down the papers for a second as she tied her bandanna around her neck. Shoving her feet into her dark brown shoes, she began looking at the plans again. "My god this is so easy to get in to!" she exclaimed.
She jumped as she heard a bang outside her flat, right in the corridor than ran passed her main door.
"Hello?" she tried, hitting herself on the forehead. Great, yeah say hello to the burglars. Good on ya.
Her face paled as a dreadful thought washed over her. They didn't track me did they? Shit. She grabbed the blue prints as quietly as she could. She pulled up a lose floor board that just slightly covered by the couch and placed the papers in the gap, replacing the floorboard when she was done.
"Alright Jessie old girl," she muttered to herself. "You got yourself into this mess, you get yourself out." She grabbed her gloves from the sofa, pulling them on in haste. She then stared at the door.
The girl heard another bang. It wasn't as loud as the last. If she wasn't listening for it, she doubted that she would have heard this one. She walked briskly over to the door and yanked it open. She found the corridor empty. Jessie turned back around, gasping at the person who was stood in her kitchen doorway.
"You shouldn't turn your back on an open door, you know," The blonde haired Turk said, tapping her whip against her knee.
Jessie turned back around, coming face to face with two more Turks. She gulped. This is more than shit. This is major fucking shit.
The redhead grinned. "Would you like to tell us what you were doing in Urban Development's computer system?"
Jessie laughed nervously. "Me? In Urban Dev's computer system? Why would I wanna do that?"
"Nice try," the black haired man said as he took a step into the room. Jessie took a step back.
"Seriously? Why would I wanna do that? There's nothing I need on there."
"Not even blue prints of the Shinra building?" Adrienne asked politely
"Why? Why would I want them?" Jessie tried again, struggling to make her voice sound less frightened than it really was. She took another step back.
"You tell us," Reno said as he leaned on the doorframe.
Jessie looked over the three Turks before deciding what to do. Bloody run for it! As she began to run towards the fire escape stairway, something caught her around the ankle, tripping her up. The next thing she felt was something squeezing the back of neck, then darkness overtook her.
"You think we have a lead?" Adrienne asked as she stepped away from the girl.
Tseng sighed. "I'm hoping so."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Jessie woke up in a cold, dark room sometime later. She hoisted herself up, sitting on the back of her heals. She rubbed the back of her neck, muttering curses under her breath.
"Aw man, I'm so bloody in for it now," she finished off the curses with.
The cell door opened and a Shinra blue walked through the door, rifle in hand. He picked the girl up by the collar and dragged her to her feet. He then poked the rifle into the small of her back. "Move," was all he said.
Jessie glared silently at the guard. "Alright, already," she muttered, walking out the room.
Met by another Shinra blue, Jessie knew it would be a stupid idea to try and escape now. So, she grinned and bared it. I'll just have to talk my way outta it.
The guards shoved her into an unused room.
"Nice knowing ya," one of the guards muttered as he shut the door and locked it.
Jessie cursed, running over to the door and pulling the handle. She gave the door a kick and spun around, flinging herself in one of the uncomfortable desk chairs.
The next ten minutes passed by slowly. Eventually, Jessie heard the sound of the door being unlocked. The blonde haired Turk she had seen from before walked into the room alone, locking the door again behind her. She leaned against the wall, looking at the young brown haired girl sat in the chair.
"I suppose you have some good reason for hacking into the Shinra database?" Adrienne asked.
"Would you believe me if I said that I was randomly hacking into stuff to see if I could hack?" Jessie asked, leaning back more in the chair.
Adrienne shook her head. "Somehow, I don't think so."
"Well it's the truth," Jessie stated.
Adrienne pushed herself away from the wall and took a step closer to the girl. "I know you're not a dumb girl, so don't act like it ok?"
Jessie shrugged her shoulders. "Alright."
"You've heard about Avalanche right?" Adrienne asked, trying to look at recognition of the name in the girls eyes. She was disappointed when there was none.
"Everyone's heard about them. The famous vigilante terrorists, attacking Shinra for the greater good." Her gazing look drifted to the woman in front of her. "Blowing up stuff and that."
"So you don't know them personally then?"
Jessie laughed. "Me? You're suggesting I'm a terrorist? Ha! I can't even use a gun or make a bomb."
"You have no contact with them then?" Adrienne asked.
"I just said no, didn't I?"
"So you don't mind if we check your flat then?" The blonde Turk bent down so she was at eye level with the younger girl. Still the girl's eyes held a neutral gaze.
"Fine by me," Jessie said.
Adrienne's PHS rung at that moment. The blonde cursed under her breath and pressed the answer bottom on the phone. "Addy."
"Addy, you're gonna have to let the girl go," came Reno's voice from the other end.
"Why?" she asked.
"There's fuck all to keep her there with. We turned the whole place upside down and still nothing."
"So you're gonna ignore the fact that she was hacking the network?" the blonde hissed into the phone.
"Apparently, it's not enough to keep her under custody with, according to Tseng. Just let her go for now. If she's something to do with them, they'll cock up enough sooner or later."
Adrienne sighed. "Alright." She hung up the phone and walked over to unlock the door. Adrienne motioned for one of the Shinra guards to come into the room. "Make sure she gets escorted out of the building."
Jessie smiled. "You're letting me go?"
Adrienne sighed again. "Can't keep you here if you've done nothing wrong can we?"
Jessie jumped out of the chair and walked over to the door. "See ya then!" With that, the girl was gone.
Adrienne slumped into one of the chairs with a long sigh. So close and then bang! it's gone.
Little did she know that Jessie was from Avalanche all along.
