Wrench- Rival

"How can we be sure we can trust her?" Marcus asks in general.

"I don't know man, I'm not even sure I trust her myself, but I trust her anger" Wrench replies, looking from Marcus back to me.

I've been a solo hacker for a while now, just doing odd jobs to earn whatever money I can to support my sibling, but my current job just took a turn sideways.

I was paid to hack into DedSec and post some shitty things on their little app, as well as gather as much info as I could on the members.

That failed, I did manage to hack into their app, and post a few mediocre comments, but then I was locked out. I contacted my client, who immediately took the money out of my account and put a target on my back, and DedSec found me.

"She literally hacked us, she's our rival!" Marcus shouts at Wrench.

Wrench holds up a finger before suggesting "Yeah, but to get into our systems? She's gotta be good, plus if Blume's put a target on her back, she's gonna need us".

"So you're saying we should recruit her?" Marcus asks sarcastically.

"Look, I'd love to stay and chat but I'm actually a wanted criminal and all, so I'm gonna head off now" I say, slowly stepping backwards.

"Wait!" A robotic voice shouts, I turn and raise an eyebrow.

"Why did you hack into DedSec?" Wrench asks, tilting his head.

"I told you, I was paid" I wince, knowing it sounds bad and that this go from bad to worse.

Wrench makes a noise like 'Psshh' before saying "Yeah, but you must of had some other motive, it was a big risk, and I know you wouldn't do it just for the money".

I give him a sharp look, "You don't know anything about me".

"Weeeell, we sort of found your profile and went from there, that's how come I know your name, age and-" Wrench drawls.

Mortified, I hold up a hand to stop him, before pinching my nose with my forefinger and thumb.

"Look, powerful people tell powerful lies, I didn't want everyone to put their faith in DedSec if it was all some power play" I say honestly.

Marcus and Wrench give each other a look, silent words passing between them.

"Can we keep her?" Wrench asks, clasping his hands together as if he's asking for a puppy and not a human.

"I dunno, we'd have to run this past the others" Marcus states, before walking towards me.

I tense up, and prepare for a fight, you never know.

He must see my reaction because he holds his hands up in a surrender, "Look, you messed with our shit, so you're not off the hook, but something tells me you're not looking for a fight with us, it's Blume you should be angry at".

I nod, knowing he's right.

"Plus," Wrench adds on, walking to stand beside Marcus, "You're really cool and I think we could be best buddies, or more" He adds with a wink.

"Man, don't go replacing me" Marcus feigns hurt.

I look between the two and let out a genuine laugh.

"She can hack to hell and back, plus her laugh is adorable, and she's pretty hot, damn I might fall in love" Wrench playfully says, his mask displaying hearts.

I roll my eyes before replying "In your dreams porcupine" I nod at his spiked attire.

Marcus lets out a belly laugh and doubles over, I smirk and his response.

"Look, I've got to go, but you can find me again and let me know what you're offering" I tell them both, before walking away.

"I'm offering a lot!" Wrench shouts down the street, I roll my eyes and smile.

I really hope they all want me to join, it could be fun, and I wouldn't be alone anymore.
