"Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be."
― Shel Silverstein

I leave my files on the bed as I grab the envelope that was later sent to me today by Mr. Smith who had said that it was the envelope that Commander Davis wanted him to send. Seems like that guy had more to say and these would be the last words or thoughts of his I would ever know.
I knew that whatever he has to say won't be the personal message but rather something important, something that will help me with this secret mission, I guess that I could say by the words written in red on the cover 'Highly Confidential'.
I sit on my rolling chair hesitating to open that damn envelope because one thing is for sure, once I open this, there is no going back. But I knew one thing for sure even if I didn't read this file, even then there is no going back, no choice, I can't behave as if I don't know shit that might save the whole freaking world.
I take a deep breath as I rip open the envelope and remove a file as I throw the torn envelope aside. It only contained a bunch of papers not with long essays but rather it had papers with a set of identities of people. What the hell was I supposed to do with this? Even if he did send it to me for them to help me, he gotta' be kidding me cause all these people belonged to different countries.
Goddamit this looks like a sick joke.
I have no time to decode what he wants to tell me. I'm not a psychic. Gosh, I run my hand through my hair as I settle on my bed, eyes closed trying to settle myself down before I read those papers. Time to get to work, I sit up with my glasses on, I put my mid-back length hair in a bun. Likewise, it's said 'When a girl pins her hair up, she means business'.
There were 12 papers, each paper had a profile of an individual. I guess this was supposed to be my new team, the people I should trust apart from convict 2752. They all were apparently the government officials, with great posts.
