Alex Rider: Moving On
Back for more! This story will be about that hacker who was mentioned before! Enjoy!
Chapter Seventeen:
Work To Do
Dmitri had located the hacker. It was harder than he thought it would be. But he finally found him.
At an abandon dock in San Fransico, Dmitri and his men moved onto the huge docking building. His men were everywhere. There was no place for the hacker to run.
Dmitri had no idea who the hacker was, nor did he even know his code name. All he cared about was getting him on their side. He was the key for this whole operation to proceed.
Dmitri took out his radio and said, "Move in!"
The Chimera soldiers readied their weapons and moved ahead. Some soldiers planted tiny explosives on the front door and waited for the signal.
The hacker was enjoying his time. He had just completed a job for a corrupt politician to wire some money from the a U.S. government account into his. There were times when he loved his job. But then there were times when it would suck.
Like having to be a myth among the hacker underworld. He wanted to make a name for himself. Which he did, but only a few people ever believed his existence. He was known as the "Virus!".
To some people, he was the greatest hacker to ever live. He was responible for almost every single hacking problem in the United States. He once hacked into the Pentagon and even the White House, which he got a nice recording of one of the the President's affairs with his secretary. He has managed to stay off the grid and off the radar of the agencies around the world.
The Virus knew something was wrong. He could feel it in stomach. It was that feeling that yelled at him to cut and run. Grab what you need and get out.
That was when the front door blew open. A loud bang flashed through the house, hurting the Virus's ears.
He fell to the floor and crawled for the armory room, where all of his guns were. He grabbed his shotgun and cocked it.
"Come and get me!" he yelled. "I dare you!"
Dmitri ordered his men to head inside and take the hacker alive. No injuries. Nothing. Just plain fine.
He watched as his men went inside. He heard gunfire, but it all went silent in a matter of seconds.
A man's voice came over the radio.
"We have cornered. He won't give up his shotgun."
Dmitri smiled and walked forward, carrying a briefcase in one hand. He entered the building.
The Virus was cornered and he knew it. He had fired off two rounds with the shotgun to get the attention of his attackers. To let them know that he was ready to go out with a bang.
"Hello there!" came an unseen voice. "I was hoping that we could talk."
Virus chuckled and said, "Doubt that! You did just break into my home! Why should I trust you?!"
"Because my organization is willing to pay for your assistance with us!" Dmitri came around the corner, hands held up high. He walked forward and held out the briefcase. "We are willing to pay five million. All in cash. Righ here."
The Virus kept his gun on Dmitri and took the briefcase with his other hand. He opened the case and smiled at the hundred dollar bills inside.
"Okay, I'm in!" he said immediatly.
Dmitri smiled and said, "Good. Then you have work to do."
Short I know. But I hope that you enjoyed it! This virus guy will play an even bigger role for the story!
