ACACIA'S POV
__________________"Ms. Larson may I have a word with you?" One of the soldiers said.
"Is it important?" I said making my voice sound emotionless.
"Yes." He responded confidently. I kept working not bothering to look at him.
"Then talk." I said firmly and heard the soldier walk closer to my desk.
"Station 6 has been hearing rumors about an uprising." He said.
"An uprising? Explain." I said still ignoring him and focusing on my work.
"An uprising to go against the government Ms. Larson." He said and I stopped working and stood up straight.
"How positive is station 6 about these rumors?" I said glaring at him for an answer.
"They're not 100 percent sure, but community 7 has been acting suspicious." He answered.
"Suspicious how?" I asked.
"People have been going in an out of the Carson family home." He said.
"So how is that an uprising?" I said getting annoyed at this point. If there's one thing that I hated is when soldiers came in here to tell me their suspicions and be vague about it.
"Station 6 has been monitoring them. Every Tuesday a group of about 10 people go to the Carson house. By 9 at night they all leave. Every Friday a different group of 10 people go to the Carson house and leave by 9 at night. One the soldiers from station 6 approached the house and noticed that Mr. Carson was holding a meeting of some sort." He said which made curious about the situation.
"Interesting. What does Mr. Carson do for a living?" I asked.
"He's an accountant at a bank. If you ask me an accountant shouldn't be holding meetings." The soldier spoke.
"Do you have a list of the people who go to these meeting?" I said.
"Of course." He reached in his pocket and handed me the list. "Here." I took the list and read over the people's names. If this really was an uprising them I'll have to stop it by tonight, but I need to make sure what these meetings are about.
"Soldier." I said.
"Yes." He said straightening his posture.
"Tell station 6 that I would like them to contact Mrs. Carson, and tell her that I'll be personally stopping by for a visit." I said. I knew what I wanted to do, I had it all figured out in my head.
"Of course. I will contact station 6 right now. Thank you for your time Ms. Larson." He payed his respects and exited my office. A smile crept to my face as I thought about the visit I'll be paying Mrs. Carson.

FLAVIA'S POV
"You're father needs to be careful Selena." I said to one of my best friends.
"He knows that already. That's why he's only hosting meetings on Tuesday and Friday with only ten people each meeting. It'll look like he's having a get together with his friends." She said. We were walking home from the university and were on the way to her house. I was studying medicine while Selena studied law.
"Are you sure? I wouldn't want to lose my best friend." I said looking at her. She smiled weakly at me.
"We're just going to have to wait and see how it goes." She said and we continued walking. We arrived to her house and Mrs. Carson greeted us with a hug.
"Hello darlings, how were your classes?" She asked and we answered good. We sat down in the living room eating cake that Selena's mom made us then we heard a loud knock on the door.
"Hmm I wonder who that could be." Mrs. Carson said sounding confused.
"I'll get it." Selena said and walked over to the door. She looked taken back and worried.
"Step to the side." A man said and Selena did looking nervous and glancing at her mom who stood up.
"H-How can I help you?" Mrs. Carson said trying to sound confident and calm.
"You will be receiving a visit from Ms. Larson later in the day. She will be here personally to talk to you." The solider said seriously.
"What does she want?" Selena said.
"That is none of your concern." He said towards Selena then turned back to Mrs. Carson. "Tip of advice, don't call Mr. Carson. It would only make things worse." He said smiling wickedly and laughing before he left and shut the door.
"Mom we have to call dad." Selena said in a hurry walking over to her mom.
"No!" She said sounding frightened.
"No?" Selena said looking at her mom like she was crazy.
"You heard what he said Selena. If Ms. Larson wants to talk to me and finds your dad here, I don't know what could happen." She said sitting down on the couch.
"Why does Mrs. Larson want to talk to you?" I asked Mrs. Carson.
"I don't know, and it's ms." She said as I grew confused.
"What?" I said.
"You said Mrs. Larson." Selena said.
"Yea so? That's her name." I said.
"Well, Mrs. Larson is Mr. Larson's wife." She said.
"I know that." I said.
"Mrs. Larson has nothing to do with her husbands dictatorship. She's just his wife. It's their daughter." Mrs. Carson said.
"Their daughter?" I said.
"Yes; Ms. Larson. She's the only daughter of Mr. Larson. She's his second in command and our next dictator once Mr. Larson retires." Mrs. Carson said.
"I thought he had a son." I said.
"I did too until my mom explained." Selena said.
"Mr. Larson's daughter has been highly protected all her life. That's why people were never sure if he had a boy or girl. He had a girl and she's his pride and joy." Mrs. Carson said.
"What's her name? Do people know she exists?" I asked.
"Her name is Acacia. And to answer your other question, only a few know her personally. She works with her father but chooses to work from the privacy of her home. Which is why no one sees her. But, those who do meet her say she's the cruelest human being ever. They say she's heartless and ten times worse than her father" Mrs. Carson spoke.
I find it hard to believe that someone crueler than Mr. Larson exists, but I guess that's not true. Someone does exist and it happens to be her daughter. "May I stay?" I asked.
"Stay? You want to stay for her arrival?" Selena said.
"Yes. I want to make sure you guys are ok. Please." I said. Both them hesitated but agreed.
I was curious to know who our next leader will be. I wanted to know why she is said to be so heartless. If I meet her then I could observe her and tell Jacob about her which will help him. Now we just have to wait.
