May.

Interesting

The next day I woke up to my phone vibrating non-stop, I took a look at it, my co-worker Jeff was calling me.

"Jeff? What's up?" I answered.

"Ray, I know it's Sunday but the boss wants you here at Miliotech ASAP" he said.

"Why? What's so important that I have to go into work on a Sunday?"

"Bro, I don't know but everyone at the company is freaking out, from what i've heard some one hacked into the mainframe and stole some files. You gotta get here now" He said.

I checked the time, 8:07 a.m., I turned to look at May she was still sleeping.

(Thats unusual, she's almost always awake by 7:30, maybe last night really has her hung over.)

I hopped in the shower, when I came out it was 8:20, May was still asleep, I didn't wanna wake her, so I got dressed and pulled out a note pad from my desk and wrote a note.

"Emergency Situation at work, had to go, don't call I probably won't answer, be back by 4 p.m.

Love You, Ray"

I took a piece of tape and I taped the note onto her phone, May can be quite oblivious so its best to put the note on the first thing she'll see in the morning.

I got in the car and went to work.

(Emergency? just what got hacked that it requires me to come in immediately? Miliotech is closed on weekends, maybe one of the monitors caught something?)

Miliotech was just 30 min away from the city where i live. Miliotech is the head of all cybernetic research in the state of California, I was hired strait out of college because I created a cybernetic program that is virtually un-hackable (until now), and was hired as the head of their Cyber Security Force. I can't help but wonder what could have happened.

I showed up to Miliotech, and at the front door was immediately greeted by my boss, Mr. Yamato. not a very tall guy 5'5, and very humble.

"Mr. Marquez, i'm glad you could make it here on such sort notice, believe me I do not want to be here on a Sunday either, come, we have much to discuss". He said as he started walking towards his office as his assistant Haruko walked with us.

We went into his office and I sat down in one of the chairs he had in front of his desk.

"Would you like a cup of coffee?" he offered.

"no thank you" i said, "what i would really like is to know why I am here Sir"

"ah yes, lets get to business shall we?" he said, "At around 5:15 this morning one of your security monitors androids found a hack in your system, as you know you said your system was "un-hackable', i'm curious to know how the person did it"

"Your guess is as good as mine Sir" I responded, "Just because a system is meant to be un-hackable doesn't mean that it wont get hacked eventually, looking at the data from my computer the entry says the hack occurred yesterday at around 9:30, that time is usually the time Haruko puts in any new files into the system, which is the only time the hacker could have gone through the system."

"I see" he said with interest.

"Yep, this is interesting, this hack was so fast that it took the System androids almost 12 hours to detect and exterminate it, usually i'm there to help detect these hacks and delete them but weekends is the most vulnerable for the system." I said, "I'm running a scan in the system but it doesn't seem to me like anything was stolen, everything looks like where it should be."

"That is because you are not looking in the right  places Mr. Marquez" he said, "The hacker didn't hack our system directly, he hacked it indirectly and went to and external outlet in the system, that outlet, being the outlet where your security system is connected"

"Excuse me?" I asked, "what are you saying?"

"As you know we have our employee's regularly update their employee records as if it where a social media page" Haruko interrupted, "When i noticed the hack I did a scan of all employee files, as that is the extend of my scan access, and only one employee came up with missing files."

"And which employee was that?" I asked.

"Yours Mr. Marquez, which is why we called you in, because it wasn't your entire file that was stolen, only bits and pieces, more specifically the ones about your Fiancee, May Ramirez, do you know anyone that would have any reason to to steal these files from you?" Haruto asked.

"No I don't" I responded. "I'm gonna do a back scan, find out who hacked it before the bug is destroyed..... I found it, hmm? what's this? The bug is destroying itself, and it's leaving a message behind."

"What does the message say?" Mr. Yamato asked

"'I'm coming for what's mine'" I said.

"For what's his?" Haruto asked, "Does the hacker mean May?"

"Most likely, but he isn't getting what he wants" I responded as i closed my laptop.

"What do you mean?" asked Haruto. "doesn't he have your's and May's address

"Because all the information on the company file about my Address and May's address is all fake, i did it as an extra security measure to protect myself and my loved ones. Mr. Yamato has the paper copy with all the real information." I said "The address I gave them is an address from Poland"

"I see, that's smart" said Haruto "But an anonymous hacker who threatens  to 'take back what is his' thats a little terrifying but a little bit.."

"Interesting"
