I walked to the shop and opened the door, seeing my dad fixing the suit.
"Hey. Are you busy? You mind if I send you on an errand?" He asked. "I need you to go to my office. You're going to hack into the mainframe and you're going to retrieve all the recent shipping manifest. This is a lock chip." He handed me the chip. I wonder why they call it a chip? You can't eat it. "That'll get you in. It's probably under Executive Files. If not, they put it on a ghost drive, in which case you need to look for the lowest numeric heading."
"And what do you plan to do with this information if I bring it back here?" I asked.
"Same drill. They've been dealing under the table and I'm going to stop them. I'm going to find my weapons and destroy them."
"Dad, you know that I would help you with anything or anyone, but I cannot help you if you're going to start all of this again."
"There is nothing except this. There's no art opening. There is no benefit. There is nothing to sign. There is the next mission and nothing else."
"Is that so?" I said. I felt bad, I really do but I just can do things that are worth a risk. "Well, then, I don't want to do this anymore." I throw the chip to the table and walked away.

"You and Pepper stood by my side all these years. While I reaped the benefits of destruction." I turned back facing him. "and now that I'm trying to protect the people that I put in harm's way, you're going to walk out?"
"What about me? You walked away from me! Listen, You're going to kill yourself, Dad, I'm not going to part of it. I'm not trying to risk my life and not knowing what it feels like to be protected, by you."
"I shouldn't be alive unless it was for a reason. I'm not crazy, Crystal. I just finally know what I have to do." He looked at me, knowing that he had hurt me from the past years. "And I know in my heart that it's right." I took a deep breath and walked to the table where I left the chip.
"You're all I have, too, you know." I looked at him.
Time-lapse
I came out of the elevator and walked to my dad's office. I opened the door and closed it behind me. I walked to his desk, and I turned on his computer. Then I saw a picture of me when I saw little. Me with my two front teeth missing and I had two ponytails. I Smiled at the picture and pulled out the chip. The computer started to beep saying, Warning Security Breach. Come on, hurry up! I tapped my finger. Then it said Access Granted. I found the Ghost Drive and the files came up.
"Sector 16? What are you up to, Obadiah?" I told myself. I knew it. I knew that guy was up to something. I clicked on another file. I saw a video when my dad was captive. I gasped. Then I type Translation.
