Kaiba: Missing Persons
Chapter 2. "Ms. Sonato.......are you all right? Ms. Sonato??", Lanna called to her wealthy superior, who was lying on the couch, moaning.
"Wh-what??", she asked.
"I hope you're not hurt.......but except for the bump on your head, you seem to be okay. Please, tell me you're all right.......", Lanna pleaded with her.
"Wh-who? Who are you?", she asked Lanna.
Lanna's concern grew, as she said, "Krysonna........it's me, Lanna.......your personal assistant. Don't you remember? Oh, dear.......you have to be okay. If your superiors hear that you're not all right, they may decide you can't handle the job, and have you replaced. You have to be all right!" Lanna sounded desperate, as she tried to explain to her boss.
Krysonna felt terribly weak.......her head was pounding, and the room felt like it was spinning. But she fought against it anyway, and sat up, looking around the room. She then looked herself over, and finally at Lanna. "What is this place?", she now asked Lanna, with more harsh demand in her voice.
"You're the highest executive to Charujin, Inc. Do you remember anything?", Lanna asked.
"Charujin?", Krysonna asked, and slowly stood, walking over towards a mirror. "Charujin is one of the highest money-making companies in this world, that focuses primarily with genetics", she stated flatly, as if she was reading from a folder. As she looked in the mirror, there was absolutely nothing she found familiar with herself........and that terrified her. Her voice softened, as she stated, "Tell me Lanna, have you ever looked in the mirror and thought you were looking at a complete stranger? That is how I feel, right now. I don't remember who I am........I don't remember any of this."
"M-Ms. Charujin herself called a few minutes ago. She wanted to talk to you, but I delayed her. She wont wait for long before demanding an explanation. Ma'am.......she can't know of this amnesia you're suffering from. If she senses a weakness in you.......it could cost you your career. She's a very stern woman", Lanna warned.
Krysonna's eyes narrowed, as she said, "Then I guess she's not going to know about it.....is she, Lanna?" She turned and looked at Lanna coldly, saying, "All right, you're going to update me on everything I need to know, including who I am, and what I'm doing here."
"Uh.......all right. You're name is Krysonna Sonato, the Highest Executive to Charujin, Corp......and you're right, this company is almost primarily dealing with genetics. Atleast there are some things that you still remember. This company has performed many hostile takeovers with other rich and competitive companies, that has made us grow as far as we have. There were presently only two other companies that were still beating us: that was Industrial Illusions, and Kaiba Corp. Industrial Illusions were the founder of the most popular game this world has seen, known as Duel Monsters. But presently, the corporation's profits had dropped due to a sudden accident that befelled the company's president, Maximillion Pegasus. This had left only Kaiba Corp. above us", Lanna said.
With a wry smile, Krysonna stated, "I see.......so what exactly do our top heads have in mind to......'deal' with this problem?"
"It's already in the works. The head of Kaiba Corp. has become conveniently........'missing' by those that you have personally assigned. He is held in a very secure and confidential location. This had left Kaiba Corp. vulnerable, since now his little kid brother is all that's left to be in charge of the company. It's your job to infiltrate the place, and do whatever it takes to 'finish the job'. In return for your efforts, you have been promised a partnership in Charujin, as well as being the new head in charge of Kaiba Corp., once it becomes Charujin's after the corporate takeover", Lanna explained.
"So, how did I get this injury?", Krysonna asked.
"A car-bomb, Ms. Sonata", Lanna stated. "It went off in front of you, just as you were approaching the vehicle. Though you weren't hit by anything from the blast, it threw you back, and you hit your head. You were out for atleast an hour."
"I see. Any idea who set the bomb?", Krysonna asked.
"We believe that there's a chance Kaiba Corp. may be suspicious of us. If that's the case, it may be a warning sign from them. But it may also be the remains of some other company we crushed in the past, who may still be holding a grudge. We're not entirely sure yet who.......", Lanna finally admitted.
"Fine.......then put some investigators on it, and find out who is responsible. If for some reason we don't have any, then hire some! I want this taken care of as soon as possible. Now, why don't you get Ms. Charujin on the phone for me, so I can go over whatever she needs to speak to me about", Krysonna stated.
"Y-yes, Ma'am. But........are you sure you're ready?", Lanna asked.
"I might be suffering from a slight memory loss, Lanna, but there's one thing I didn't lose, and that's my business sense. I will have no problem dealing with any matter that comes to me, is that clear?", Krysonna snapped.
"Yes, Ms. Sonato!", Lanna stated.
