"So what do you intend to do about it now,Dad?" asked a gentle voice,"Well,I guess I should update my resume and look for a new job,I guess?" One other asks,the inside of the café is beautiful,it's well furnished with 5 different booths,one one sat 2 individuals,the sun peering through the window and making its presence known to those sitting near

"And can't we find another booth,there's too much sun on this oneeeeeeee" he lazily added,trailing off as his coffee arrived,he took off his glasses,placing them in the pocket of his lab coat and ruffling his black hair into a messy state as he chuckles,taking the coffee and starts taking sips of it ,"You really need to stop with the coffee" said his daughter with furrowed Brows,she had long black hair and her eyes were a deep cyan as she glared at him,reaching for the pocket of her own lab coat for a small can of a sort of soft drink,putting it on Rey's side of the table

"This is much better,trust me" she said proudly as she smirked with eyes closed,"Oh please,that can't be" Rey interjects,"We're supposed to be talking about my problem here, Zoey"
"Well, you're the one who sidetracked our conversation" she replied,pouting with her arms crossed

"Ey! Rey,you're rarely around,what's the occasion? Did you get an off day at work?"

"You could say that" Rey replied,gazing deeply into the deep dark Abbys that was his coffee,"What's that mean?" The man asked,sitting next to Rey,"He got fired and now he's depressed" answered Zoey with a slight chuckle,"Well shouldn't you be a little sad about that,he is your dad after all" added the man,"It's alright Jack,It's our thing...I guess?" He said before taking a sip of his coffee

"You guys certainly are weird" he said,chuckling as he took a fry from the ones that were on Rey's side of the table and ate it,Rey sighed as he finished his coffee,"What about you,How's your job?" He asked looking at Zoey,"Well I'm just 15 so I don't have a job" she said, shrugging,"Right,Yours,Jack?" He said as he turned to face Jack who'd stuffed his face with fries,"Things are going well, they're great" he said,grinning,"Well,I have to go then..." Rey responded after having calculated the money for the bill and placing it on the table as he left

"Can I?" Jack eagerly asked
"NO!" Zoey replied

The indistinct chatter of people going on and and off ships was abundant as it seemed there was some sort of some special occasion happening,it took a second but it finally came to Rey that most of the ships had the Lockwise Foundation's logo and this led him to believe this was a shipment of sorts but he shrugged it off as it didn't concern him,in the middle of shrugging he felt something in his pocket and took it out to reveal the can of soft drink labelled with the words "Sprite"on the logo,taking a slight sip and then looking on,his curiosity as to what was the shipment was peaked but suddenly overwhelmed by the thought that what he'd just drank was actually not bad,it was quite good actually,he stood up as before chugging it all down and crushing the Can with his palm as he smirked for a second,throwing the can into the trash can from where he was and getting it into the can as he walked away in the direction of his house

The door creaked open and out stepped Rey,his coat hoisted over his shoulder and supported by his left arm as his right held onto the doorknob to push the door open,closing it behind him as he opened,flipping the light switch on his way in and then making his way out of the living room and heading into the kitchen where Zoey was making Lunch for herself,"So,are you feeling better now?" She asked with a concerned tone,"Naturally,can't keep this dog down forever" he said in a chuckle as he reached opened the fridge to take a can of the same soft drink from before,"Hey! Those are mine!" Zoey hissed out while glaring at him

"I just called dibs" he replied as he shrugged while she glared at him then showing an expression detailing her acceptance of defeat as he walked out of the room,"You snooze you lose" he said from the living room as he hopped sat on the couch and switched the TV on,interrupting a news broadcast and just before he could switch channels he heard he words "Lockwise Foundation" being said by the reporter,noticing that they were at the harbour he'd just visited,was there a connection? Definitely

"Well,Through a lot of trial and error,I finally perfected the code to operate our prototype robots" a familiar voice sounded,coming from a man with black slicked back blonde hair,a black 3 piece suit and a scar below his right eye which his wrinkles warped into a question mark looking shape,meaning he'd acquired it years ago

"MR CURRIER!" Rey shouted,not sure what was happening,"You say you've perfected it? How?" Asked the reporter,swinging her microphone towards his face and stopping just in front of it a he started speaking,"Now I can't tell you how the code reads but I can tell you it's a breakthrough in programming and it'd work for most machines,as we can demonstrate here..." he said as a robot stood inactive where he pointed and the camera shifted to,a press from his watch and it's eyes lit up and it said a monotone "Hello,what is your order?" As Currier smirked

"PRO-TO00001-2,there's a specially made wooden crate 2 metres on your left,can you tell me what type of wood it is?" He asked with that smug look on his face as the robot looked at the crate for a second an looked back at Currier stating a bunch of details about the crate before Currier cut it off with an "enough,you may deactivate" and so it did,prompting one of the sailors to put it back in the box and move it back to the port,"Well,all I got from that was "Mahogany" but maybe you wood science geeks got something,great
It was great to see your genius first hand,Mr Currier" said the reporter as Currier held her hand up to plant a kiss on it for a second,"please,the pleasure is all mine" he said with a smirk While Rey spaced out,dropping his Drink as it spilled onto the ground while a thousand thoughts crossed his head concerning what he'd just seen

He then started dialling rapidly on his phone

An awkward silence broke out in the room as Rey sat down in the living room along with Jack,Zoey and 4 others,2 being female and the other 2 being male,"So are we just here for a staring contest battle Royale or is it just me who's not sure about the reason I was called here?" A gruff voice asked,coming from one of the people seated in the room,he was buff in body type and wore a black tanktop and jeans,the words "Venom" were imprinted on his shirt in a green colour in a font that showed the lower half of the word slightly fading,his arms were lined with tattoos and he had a buzz cut

"Im gonna need you guys' help with something" Rey answered with a serious tone
