I stand at the front entrance of the company. I was in a different department which was nerve wrecking, but not as nerve wrecking as having to confront a few people. I suddenly get kidnapped and then come back with a different position? Jojo told me to say a hero saved me and for compensation, I was given a chance to intern in a different position, but god did that sound sketchy. Taking a deep breath in, I walk into the building. I thought of running, but I just knew I'd be caught by those psychos. Taking the elevator up, I avoid anyone I didn't want to see nor confront.
Finally I arrive to the department and scan the room. The Mia girl was no where to be found, but I did meet with the Dean, her father. He introduced himself and showed me around, fully believing I was an intern put here. It was an honor, but it was not everyday a new hire was placed in a hard to get role. I was excited yes, but a bit guilt. After showing me around, I got to see the actual work I'd be doing, which was watching other analysts go over operations strategies then, maybe pitch in a few ideas of my own while doing paper work. I loved problem solving and frankly I think I'm good at it. Intelligence is my only good quality for having 'useless' powers.
Finally I was left by the Dean so I can do the work I'm told from the person in charge of me. I got to watch operations and routes Heros take for missions. I was exposed to a lot of sensitive information that would be very useful; then I met Mia. She spots me from a far and smiles, waving then comes over.
"Hi, so nice to meet you! I'm Mia." She held her hand out so I shook it.
"Hi I'm Isabelle. Nice to meet you." I smiled, trying to meet her energy.
"That's such a pretty name. Can I call you Belle?" I giggled a bit and nod. "Omg great. So I'm sure the Dean showed you around but if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask me okie. I work with George Kia, he's also your boss hehe." She smiled widely. I nod once again and watched her walk away, waving and smiling at everyone. She was indeed a character. I scan the the operations screens, watching the numbers and calls and everything you see in the movies. I was happy, but again...guilty.
On a break, I head to the break room for a drink. Passing by, I over heard a group of men talking as they made their way to the elevator. At first I wasn't interested, but then I heard the wording 'drafts'. It was the same thing the villains were after, well a least the ones that kidnapped me. I pretend to drop my pen and bend to pick it up, slowly, all while eavesdropping.
"Yeah I heard the draft is almost complete. You know, I actually think it's a good idea. These politicians now of days don't understand what the people want." One man said.
"People are concerned though." A younger voice said. The other men laugh.
"Oh lad, you don't understand. This creation will allow us to do wonders-"
"Shhh, pipe down Gary. Jeez." After they got a bit father, I got up, but I wanted to know more. I used my replication ability, allowing me to temporality know the skills and knowledge being at used by a person. Allowing my eyes to glow, I intake the information Gary seem to have. To say the least he didn't know much, but he worked with the a group of people close to the Dean. The drafts had something to do with taking in energy from a source. Blinking a bit as the ability breaks off, I quickly open the notebook in my hand and write it down. I even draw a few things a I saw, which was a box with lighting inside. and a symbol. This felt so wrong. I close the notebook, scanning around before continuing to walk off.
