What Lies Beneath
A/N: This story is kind of confusing but it all makes since in the end.
Chapter 1
New Kids at the Camp
The mess hall fell completely quiet. The warden walked in with a pissed-off look and a don't-mess-with-me attitude. She held two people by the shoulder. A girl with long, auburn hair and deep violet eyes was one. The other's face and hair was hidden by a baseball cap.
"Alright! Everybody listen up!" the warden announced, "This girl here-" she held up the girl's hand "is accused of hacking. See what you can do with her. This child, however-" she held up the other kid's hand "-is in my total control. She will take orders from no one but me. You disobey me and consequences will be dire. Are we clear?"
"Yes, warden." was the muttered response of the boys. The warden walked out of the doors, leaving the kids behind. The girl looked around for a friendly table.
"Oh, man! A girl." Armpit muttered.
"I know, Armpit, how we get around her?" Magnet asked.
"I've got an idea! How 'bout we treat her like a human and stop muttering about her behind her back?" a voice replied. The four boys spun around to find themselves staring at a pair of deep violet eyes.
"Sorry." Stanley muttered, turning a light shade of red, "What's your name?"
"I'm Tamika Toshi. Who're all of you?"
"Well," Armpit said, looking at Stanley, "introduce us to the lady."
"That's Armpit, Magnet, Zero, and I'm Caveman." Stanley replied, pointing to each of them in turn.
"Tamika? Hmmm, isn't that Spanish?" Magnet asked.
"No, it's Japanese. You can call me Tami if you like." she replied, smiling.
"Yo, Tami. What's with your friend?" Armpit asked.
"Oh, Taylor, yeah, ummm….. Well, Taylor's hard to explain."
"And what're you here for?" Stanley asked.
"Hacking. Six and a half years here."
"Six and a half years? Geez….that long just for hacking?"
"Well, when you try to get into Congress's files I guess it's kind of understandable."
"Congress?? What were you doing there??"
"Oh you know, just browsing."
"You," Magnet cut in, "are unbelievable. I think a new name is in order."
"How 'bout Bios?" Stanley asked.
"Nah….how about…..Microchip?" Magnet said slowly.
"Yeah, Microchip," Tami said, "I like that. Microchip….."
A/N: Well, what do you think? What's Taylor's deal? I don't even know yet, but I think I have an idea. Tami, btw, is very odd, as you'll soon find out. She's smart, but odd. And, just to give you a sneak peek, she is about to be in REALLY, REALLY big trouble! Wanna find out what kind of trouble? Then…………….
