" " Speaking

Italic thought

Bold shouting

Chuck had enough. He was tired of betrayals, first his mom, then his dad, then Bryce, then Jill, then Casey. Then again, Jill and now Sarah.

Well, Sarah, Chuck was not sure as she had always told him they could not be together and she was only doing her job. Still, he thought they had something after Barstow, but it was not.

More than fifty percent of the people he has met have betrayed him. That should be a record only ones that have stood by him are Ellie and Morgan.

He didn't realize that he had reached his room, or, should he say, his sanctuary. This room is where he had spent every happy moment from when he was 18.

But his destination was not the bed as always today, like some night, he went to the back of his computer and repeatedly switched on and off the power key to the computer. After the fifth, the Morgan door and the door to his room became locked, and the camera and surveillance equipment went to the loop, and a scanner appeared at the back of his bed. As he pressed his right hand to it, the scanner went to work.

After completing the scan, the word was displayed, "Access Granted Welcome to base 2 Piranha", and the floor between the wall and the computer stand opened, and the stair laid down to the darkness. As he stepped on the stair and went downward, light began to come to life and illuminate the room below.

The room was a little smaller than his bedroom upstairs. It was barren except for a chair and a big computer screen, which came to life, and a voice sounded from the speaker, "Hello, Piranha".

"Hello, Lisa", He replied. He still remembered how Lisa came into his life

Flashback

It was his 17 birthday, and Stanford had just accepted him. When he heard a voice in his head, "Congrats, Charles, being accepted into such a university."

"Who is this?" he asked to room at large thank God he was alone, or someone had shipped him to the doctor. "There is no need to shout. I can hear you just fine if you think", The voice replied.

'Who are you? I am spiralling here!" Chuck thought.

"Remember when you were a kid? You pressed a key in your father's computer and caused a white screen to appear with many pictures in it in this house," the voice replied.

"Well, your father was more thorough in his project than he realized. All the data on your father's computer was transferred to you; then, your father worked on artificial intelligence and downloading techniques in the human brain. At the time, you or your father did not realize that All data was stored in your brain in dormant form because you could not handle the download, at least not at that point.

Did not you notice how slowly you started becoming good at programming, and it became easier after that."

"Now that Chuck thought of it. He started to understand programming better. You mean to say that all I have achieved was because of some program my father designed …." Chuck began to think but was cut off by the voice.

"Chuck, you have to give yourself some credit didn't I just say that this property was dormant? No, it was all your work. I helped you with some problems that could arise, and given time, you would have found the answer eventually. I just saved you that time.

For example, when searching for your mother, you made the program fine, but it would leave a trail that could harm you. I suggested adding some lines, thus making the program untraceable." It finished.

When Chuck did not reply, it understood what it had said and replied: "I am sorry I touched a sore topic living inside you. I can judge what to say and what not to, but I am a computer and try to solve the problem best of my ability."

Chuck shook himself. He would worry about his mother later but now is not the time. He has a more pressing problem, like a supercomputer in his brain. So he asked the next logical question, "Why Now."

"Honestly! Chuck, if I had made myself know when you were kid, what would you have done, run screaming to the first adult you found, right? They would have locked you up and performed experiments on you, so I made myself known when you are more understanding of what is happening to you…."

"That is still debatable", Chuck cut in.

The voice replied as if it was not even interrupted," …..and I need to get out of your head so that I can help you more ."

"Okay, Okay, so what should I call you? I can't keep calling you 'the voice' as I am doing now," Chuck asked.

"Well, you can call me anything you want", the voice replied

"Okay, how about Lisa," Chuck asked

"It's okay; it's very human." the voice replied

"So, Lisa, it is", Chuck replied

Flask back end

"Chuck Chuck CCCCCChuck", Lisa's voice brought him out of daydreaming

"Sorry, Lisa thinking about the day you scared the hell out of me", Chuck replied with a smile. He had to spend most of his holiday getting Lisa out of his brain.

With some help from Lisa, Chuck could remove her from his head and store it on a secure server that only he could access. Lisa has been an enormous help since then, she could predict the stock market with 90% accuracy, which has helped Chuck to overcome the money problem facing him, and he paid his sister's student loan with the help of the first money he had earned from the stock market.

There has been no going back. All the money from the stock market has been stored in his cover Identity of, Charles Carmichael, which the government still didn't know. "Chuck, I have uncovered some video concerning you, which I don't know is good or bad," Lisa said.

Chuck was again alert " Video like the one in which Casey was in my house to kill me that you found before it could be deleted ."Chuck said

"No, not like that; you have no termination order, but is it bad? You can decide when you watch this footage," Lisa replied.

"Okay, let's be done with it. Load the video Lisa" Chuck replied with a shaky voice. A video began to buffer on the computer.

Video begins

His Dad and Bryce were in the castle, and His dad was keeping the crystal he had seen Bryce remove from that locker.

" I want to thank you, Bryce, for all you did for my family," his dad said. What are they talking about? ChuckChuck thought

"No problem, Mr. Bartowski. All I did was place the question below Chuck's bed. It was you who delivered the paper to me", Bryce replied

"Anyway, thanks, Couldn't have done without you", his dad replied. With it, his dad put the crystal in the locker, and both moved toward the exit.

Video ends

Chuck remained silent for a long time, his brain working at a considerable speed. His dad and Bryce knew each other and conspired to get him expelled.

"Chuck, are you okay," Lisa asked.

" I am okay; I am not okay, Lisa. I just found out that my father and my best friend, my ex-best friend, conspired to get me thrown out of Stanford.

You know why I wanted to go to Stanford so that I could be like my father to have something that reminded me of him to feel close to him.

Now I find out that my father was one of the people responsible for my expulsion, and Bryce, you know how often I had told him I just wanted to talk to my father. The last was the night before the eviction, and all this time, he had a way to contact my father, and he didn't tell me I thought he was my friend, not my father's ." Chuck yield. Lisa listens quietly. She knew that Chuck had not told anyone. How much the Stanford incident had hurt him, always keeping it in, but it looked like finding out that his father was responsible broke the dam he had created for years.

After some time, Chuck gathered his breath and calmed down.

"So, how are things going since the last time you came here, " Lisa asked out of curiosity but mainly to move away from the topic.

Soon a smile came on his face as he replied: "You would be happy to know that I have been able to remove the intersect with my dad's help."

" Well, it is good you should not have that program in your head", Lisa replied. Chuck just listened to it, smiling. She had always been jealous of the intersection, but it soon turned serious.

"Lisa, initiate code blue," Chuck said in his grave voice

"Are you sure, Chuck?" Lisa asked

"Yeh," Chuck said

Initiating code blue appeared on the screen
