The police commissioner hears a voice whisper to him, but he turns back again and frowns eyeing no one there. He reaches for a phone and dials a number "Mr. Mayor don't take this question weird, but do you ever hear someone whispering?"

The police commissioner's door opens and a man nods at him as he glances up to the man and nods his head "I'll call you back." He hangs up the phone and the man steps in looking around "hackers."

The man glances around some more and whispers to the commissioner "hackers hired by one of the families probably."

"Which one would do it?" The commissioner asks and the man shrugs "could be anyone." The man walks around eyeing the commissioner's setup but turns his head as he asks, "how often do you hear the person?" The hacker's phone goes off, he sighs and walks out of the room excusing himself from the commissioner's office. He hears a voice "step outside.'' He turns back confused thinking he heard someone behind him but ignores it and speaks to the person on the other side of the phone. Before he can reply to the other person, he hears a sizzling sound and feels his hand burn as he rips the cell phone out of it and turns eyeing his burnt hand as he hears another whisper "step outside."

He looks at his hand and then up to the front doors leading into the dark street. He takes a deep breath, walks out and still hears the person "keep walking north..." The man follows the directions and walks north for a short time but stops hearing the voice whisper "stand still."

He stops but flinches realizing he is in the street and looks around confused as he hears the voice "take a look." The man feels his hand burn and turns it over as he eyes the numbers burnt into it as the person whispers "come find me."

He looks around, feeling scared but no one is there. The man looks around the block and eyes no cars around and takes one last look down at his hand eyeing the numbers as he whispers, "what the fuck do you mean?"

Scarlett sits back, eyeing the news report as she hears Albert behind her as she glances back "another missing hacker..."

Albert's daughter looks back asking her dad "can we go to that movie yet?"

"Nope Scarlett's dad made it really clear Scarlett cannot leave this house except to go to school and soccer. So just watch some TV and movies and relax girls." He reaches forward stealing some of his daughter's popcorn and his daughter rolls her eyes as she asks Scarlett "why did you get the cool dad."

Scarlett rolls her eyes "my dad works IT that is not cool."

"IT? Really Scarlett, your dad works in IT? Do you not know your last name."

"Her last name is the name she has honey. Now the best part of the movie is coming up." Albert increases the tv volume and motions to his daughter "watch it and shut up."

He walks off and down a long flight of stairs and stands there staring forward. He hears his wife.

"What's wrong?"

"Hackers are going missing." Albert hears a loud yell from upstairs and his wife rolls her eyes motioning up "I'll check on them."

She walks up the stairs, stops and eyes the empty living room. Slowly she walks forward but stops eyeing the thrown popcorn on the ground. She quickly reacts, hearing a loud whistle and dodges a fist that almost hits her face. She leans back hearing a whistle again and turns towards the sound, but no one is there. Slowly she walks in the direction but stops relaxing something, she turns quickly and is close lined hard around the neck. She falls hard to her back and blinks hearing a voice whisper "it's about that time again."
