A few hours after I told Dedsec where I came from. Sitara got a notification and turned on the TV. It was a news programme and they had some weird theme going on. "Everybody should know that the dead walk among us. It is as of now, public information that Dedsec has a dead woman in their ranks. Prime_Eight has leaked a video where the woman talks about being from 'the purgatory' which leaves only questions. Why is she here and what will she do next? Tune in when we interview Blume CEO, Dusan Nemec for more information on how to combat this threat." Everyone falls silent. So much for keeping a low profile. "How did they get the video if Lenni was already removed from our servers?" asks Marcus as confused as ever. "I don't know man. We need to get back on our feet. This low profile thing has been a farce. We ain't getting nowhere," says Wrench angrily punching a wall with his healthy hand. "Why would Dusan give an interview about something like that?" asks Sitara. "Because he has an ulterior motive," says Ray and Josh agrees. "No. It's because he knows some people are afraid and he uses that to further establish his company's standing in the market. He's probably going to tell them they don't need to worry about me as long as they're a Blume employee or they use any of Blume's services. That's what corporations do most of the time during a crisis," I say looking at everyone one by one. "So, typical Blume," Marcus adds and hums after a while of rubbing his chin. "We need to show the people that they got nothing to worry about. You ain't evil," he finally says. "Any of you have a photo of the Lenni incident? The image behind her was something I can never forget," I ask and Wrench pipes up. "I got one, but why?" he says and hands me his laptop. I place it on the table in the middle of the room. Wrench guides me to find the photo and once it loads onto the screen, I already feel the anger inside me. "That image, I mean the logo behind Lenni, that's the one Zalgo uses and I have a feeling the bracelet radiates energy because he himself is here," I say pointing at the screen. "It looks like a normal tag on anyone's wall," Ray comments behind us. "That's the point, the man knows all about fear tactics and uses them to his advantage. He first spreads those tags around his next target, and when he finally has the whole city under tags, he'll call for his friends to come and wreak havoc on the city. He would call parademons to 'play' with some of you," I say looking at Ray, who suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation. "How are we going to avoid a supernatural attack? We know Dusan won't take anything like that seriously," Josh asks suddenly. "Well, we could start by covering up those tags. Which means that if you find any, mark them so I can cover them. And what comes to Dusan, I'm sure you'll like what I have in mind," I say with a smirk. Josh just nods and Wrench is already so close to my face along with Marcus and Sitara that I know we'll be having a lot of fun with Dusan's ego. That man bun-supporting egotistical jerk is going to have his world turned on its head.

After a couple hours...

We have just about managed to find all the tags so far and I've already covered most of them. But now we're working on the plan to flip Dusan off so bad he forgets himself for a second. "Okay, the ventilation system runs all through the building and then back down to the cooling unit. Good thing is, the ventilation that leaves from the cooling unit is big enough for a person to climb in. The bad is that it narrows once it reaches the actual building. But even with that minor set back, it's probably the most likely place to remain undetected during the operation. The front and back doors are heavily guarded for an obvious reason, so we approach from the side using the abandoned sewers that Josh found with some digging. You can talk with each other about the possibility of who's going from where and doing what, but me and Sitara are going to distract Dusan. He has a yoga session scheduled for that day and I already tracked down his instructor who happens to look like Sitara. So we go in and have a discussion then we do some yoga, while the 4 of you get down to business and plant the surprise in the ventilation system and the server room. I'll be Sitara's partner in crime and will get him to try and look for my ctOS profile only for him to get frustrated about not finding it. I scheduled a meeting with him before Sitara comes around so we'll see how clever this bastard actually is," I say as I point the map while giving instructions. "This might just work," says Ray nodding approvingly. "Me and Marcus can go plant the surprise in their server room," says Wrench. "Well me and Josh are taking the ventilation then. There anything in particular we should do before that?" asks Ray waiting for my answer. "You might want to change into clothes suitable for maintenance work. If a guard sees you with normal clothes, he's going to come and question you. Avoid that by dressing up a little," I say as I show them the maintenance clothes used in that area. "Alright, kid. Where do we find these clothes?" he says. "I already took care of that, go and check your desks," I say and look at Wrench and Marcus. "You two might want to consider your outfits as well. The sewer might be no longer used but I'm sure the filth stays there even if it was declared a long time ago that it won't be used no more," I say pointing at the two men. "Roget that, anything else?" says Marcus. "Yeah, one thing. Don't die or get captured, none of you," I say seriously. Everyone just nods knowing full well why.
