Well, I hope that I can start to make this story interesting! There will be several events to unfold throughout the plot, but the main focus will be... nevermind, it's a secret! Actually, I'm sure you all know by now! XD So, let's get on with the chapter, shall we?

After spending some time with Kai in a room behind a folding screen, Sam stepped out from behind it, and stood next to Kira, who was waiting.

"Alright, Kai." Kira said. "Let's have a look!"

"NO!" Kai said.

The girls laughed.

"Why not? You look great!" Sam said.

"I look ridiculous!" Kai responded.

Kira silently snickered. "I dunno, Kai... you actually look kinda cute!" she said.

"Please don't rub salt in the wound, Kira..." Kai responded.

Kai was wearing an assortment of feminine rings, bracelets, and bejeweled sunglasses, as well as a pair of magenta-colored womens' boots, very short, revealing, jean-style shorts, and a black, turtlenecked tank-top that covered most of his chest, and under it were some... false assets. Kira chuckled upon laying her eyes on them.

"What are those...?" Kira asked Sam, pointing to Kai's chest.

Sam smirked. "Just regular water balloons." she turned to Kai. "Figured I'd spare you some mercy and give you some solid D-cups."

Kai pursed his lip and hunched over.

"...Did you really have to put a bra on me?" He asked.

"That's the only way they would stay up! But hey, at least the rest of your body looks convincing enough as it is!" Sam said.

Kai sighed. "I knew I would one day regret having an hourglass figure as a guy..."

The girls laughed, causing Kai's face to fall once again.

"I mean, c'mon..." he said, holding up his arms and looking at himself. "...my leg hair, my arm hair... it's all gone! You have any idea how awkward that is for a guy?"

Sam shrugged. "Hey, it had to go if this plan is gonna be pulled off!"

"And you had that razor blade at my face and throat for like, ten minutes! And I'm already clean-shaven at all times!" Kai said.

"Because you can't take any chances with girls when it comes to a disguise like this. Trust me: we can spot imperfections from a mile away. I guess this is one instance where having long hair as a guy pays off!" Sam said.

"Yeah... but hairpins? C'mon..." Kai said, touching the pins in question that were in his hair.

"Kai, really, I think you need to give Sam some credit. I bet it took some real effort to make you look that convincing!" Kira said.

"Yeah, if I didn't know it was you, I would think you were just another girl!" Sam added.

At that moment, Aster walked into the room... and stopped short of noticing Kai. He recognized his brainwaves, but the photoreceptor of his skull was showing him something completely different.

"Kai... is that you?" Aster asked.

A massive smiled formed over the alien's face as he strained himself not to laugh.

"Why are you dressed like a GIRL!? HA HA HA HA HA HA...!" Aster laughed.

Kai sighed. "Nose down, Aster..."

He looked at himself once more.

"So, I've got the female look down, but..." Kai trailed off. "...what are we gonna do about my voice?"

Sam rubbed her chin. "I'm sure we can figure something out..."

"So... our plan." Kira began. "We have to sneak into the dorm, make sure we can avoid drawing attention, enter Elisabeth White's room, access her computer, and see what info we can learn on this new virtual world Xenomorph project. We have to make sure this goes flawlessly if we are to have any chance at ending these cruel experiments, or at least reporting them to the authorities."

"I will support you in any way that I am capable of, Kira." SORIA, who had been sitting at the side of the room, said. "Perhaps you could connect one of my transmitters to the building's security system so I am able to monitor the dormitory through the surveillance cameras and motion sensors?"

"Okay, sounds great!" Kira said.

Almost immediately, SORIA opened up what looked like a tray for an optical drive, but instead of a CD, contained a device that resembled a jump-drive with an Ethernet port instead of a USB one.

"You will need to locate the building's primary server, and link the transmitter to an available port. Only then will I be capable of directly accessing the system with an encrypted, undetectable connection." SORIA said.

Kira clapped her hands together. "Alright! So, pack your bags 'ladies'..." she giggled. "...we've got a party to crash..."

(XXXX)

Roughly an hour later, the three arrived via car to the womens' dormitory. There were several students, both male and female, who were around the general vicinity of the building, but only girls were anywhere beyond where the dorm's lawn began.

Kai was walking rather stiffly, but it somehow managed to work in his favor, giving him a very feminine-looking walk-cycle.

"Just keep it up, Kai!" Kira encouraged. "You look very convincing! Just don't let your guard down!"

"...You have no idea how uncomfortable this is..." Kai complained.

"Quite whining and buck up, Mister!" Sam scolded.

"What if we get caught?" Kai asked. "We'll get in huge trouble, and I'll be so humiliated! I'd never be able to live it down!"

"Hey-heeeeeeeeey!" came a voice to their left.

The trio looked over to see three guys dressed in very urban-style clothing walking their way.

"What do we got here? Three hot ones alone on a Friday?" one of them said.

"Ho-ho! Score!" another said.

"Uh... something you want from us?" Kira asked.

"Oh," the first guy said, walking up to Kira. "we was just passin' by..."

The second guy spoke next as he walked up to Sam.

"And we just happened to notice you ladies, waitin' just for us!" he said.

"Wanna, grab a bit and a flick? C'mon..." the third guy said to Kai.

As he spoke, he brushed Kai's hair behind his ear, leaning his face very close to Kai's. This was making the latter feel extremely uncomfortable and weirded out. Obviously, he was unaware that Kai was, in fact, male.

Kira and Sam both turned their backs towards the guys... and Kai tried to mirror their movements, just to keep the impression.

"Sorry, but it's girls' night for us." Sam said.

The faces of the three guys fell. They looked disappointed for a moment, which promptly turned to annoyance.

"Fine... be that way!" the first guy said.

"Yeah!" the second guy added. "We'll find better chicks who aren't stuck-up like you!"

Kira, Sam, and Kai quickly rushed away from them, towards the sorority house.

Kira sighed. "Maybe I should think about wearing a wedding ring..."

"That was, hands down, the most awkward thing anyone has ever done to me in my life..." Kai whispered to the girls.

The three guys simply stayed where they were, mumbling in complaint to themselves.

"Bunch o' bitches..." the first guy said.

The three made it inside of the dorm, and given where they could both hear and see activity coming from, could easily make out where the rec room was.

"Have you made it onto the premises yet, Kira?" SORIA's voice came from the earpiece that Kira was wearing.

"Huh?" Kira said, just before holding a hand up to her mouth to redirect the sound of her voice into the earpiece. "Yeah, SORIA. We're here. Just give us a few minutes to divert attention."

"Understood, Kira." SORIA responded.

"Okay... showtime!" Kira said to her friends.

Kai gulped. "This is gonna be the riskiest thing I've ever gotten into..."

The trio entered the recreation room, and found it to be booming with music, and crowded with female students. Some were dancing, others talking, and some eating and drinking. It was your typical college girls' party.

"Well, well... some newcomers!" a girl said as she walked up to the three.

"Oh... hi." Kira said. "I hope we're not intruding."

"Not at all!" the girl said. "Anyone who goes to the school is welcome here! My name's Audrey."

"I'm Kira, and this is Sam." Kira said, motioning to her friend.

" 'Sup?" Sam said.

Audrey turned to the disguised Kai.

"And who's this?"

"O-oh...!" Kira uttered. "That's Kai—uh, lee...? Kailee..." (in this case, pronounced identical to "Kylee")

"Kailee, please to meet you!" Audrey said.

Kai was choking on his own throat, since he knew his voice would blow their cover. Audrey looked confused after a few moments.

"What's wrong? Do you speak English? Habla Ingles?" Audrey asked.

"Uh... she actually can't talk, period." Kira said.

"Why?" Audrey asked.

Kira darted her eyes at the floor. "Because... she has..."

"...laryngitis." Sam finished. "Yeah, she caught it a few days ago. But she's not letting it keep her from raisin' the roof!"

"Yeah, so... she just whispers in our ear, and we do the talking for her." Kira said.

Audrey pursed her lips and nodded. "Okey-dokey! Well, nice to see some new faces! Enjoy the party!"

"Thanks!" Kira said, smiling at Audrey just before the group moved to a secluded corner of the room.

"Okay, so now we just gotta find a way to get to the server room unnoticed." Sam said.

"But first, we gotta know if Elisabeth White is around. We can't just barge in while she might still be in her room!" Kai said.

"Well, see her anywhere?" Kira asked.

Kai was scanning the room through the sunglasses, just before he spotted a blonde-haired girl with her hair in pigtails. She also wore glasses, but she did not appear very nerdy, to be honest. She was simply chatting with some other girls.

"There! That's her; the blondie." Kai said.

Kira and Sam saw her.

"Okay, good, now that we know she's here, we just need a way to divert everyone's attention." Kira said.

"Oh..." Sam said. "...just leave that to me. I can buy you at least ten minutes!"

Kira raised a brow. "What are you gonna do?"

Sam smirked. "Let's just say... I've studied the art of misdirection..."

With that, she walked up to the elevated speech stage that

" 'SCUSE ME, EVERYONE! Can I have your attention, please?" Sam said.

Most of the girls immediately fixed their gaze on Sam.

"Now, are you ladies ready to have your minds blown? Ready to challenge your imagination?" Sam said.

This caught the attention of several of the girls, and they began to gather around stage. Fortunately, Elisabeth White was among them.

"Now, to start, I'll need a brave volunteer to come on up!" Sam said.

She pulled a deck of cards out of her pocket. Kira stared with narrow eyes.

"Doe she always carry those with her?" she asked.

"Who knows... but right now, who cares?" Kai said. "Let's just find the building's server, and fast!"

"Gotcha!" Kira said.

The two rushed back into the hallway, where the found no one around, since they all had their attention fixed on the party.

"Alright, let's find that server room, and plug SORIA in." Kai said. "Hopefully, she can help us locate Elisabeth's computer."

They examined doors in the hall, such as the elevator pulley room, sprinkler control room, and electrical switchboard room. Soon enough, however, they found one with a sign that read "Master Server".

"That's gotta be it!" Kira said.

The door was conveniently unlocked, and so they let themselves right in, closing the door behind them so no one would notice them. Inside, they found various router modules arranged in a large cluster.

"SORIA," Kai spoke into his earpiece. "we found the building's server. We're gonna plug you in now."

"Understood, Kai." SORIA said. "I will run a full-scale local network search for any computer device under the user 'Elisabeth White'."

Once they found a router with available Ethernet ports, Kai plugged in SORIA's transmitter, and the LED on it switched on, remaining steady for a moment, and then started rapidly blinking as it accessed the network on an encrypted connection...

Seems like things are going fairly smooth at this point, right? Let's just hope things don't take a bad turn! Anyways, the next chapter will be coming your way shortly! Stay tuned! Keep holding on...
