Undercover - Chapter 3

Upon initiating the final stretch of his mission, something unexpected happens as everyone is in shock. What is the meaning of this?

Luna had lead the daredevil back to the computer room and had the other employees greet him before leavibg the room again. He felt a little bit uncomfortable in this new environment as nobody was talking and the only soumd breaking the silence were loud keyboards.

Yuck! What's with the lack of social interactions?! Boooooriiiiiing.

Octane tried to start some smalltalk with these men.

"Soooo... How long have you been working here, amigos?"

One of them looked at Octane, an expression as if nobody had talked here before. It might have even been the case if he didn't know it any better.

"4 years." The man said. Octane nodded, making a few strange sounds before booting up the computer.

Once the desktop loaded, he looked arounf trying to watch what the others were doing.

Quite frankly, he had no clur what he was supposed to do.

He whispered a quiet "Hey" as one of the workers raised his brow at him.

Octane apologized, claiming it to be a weird habit he had which the employee seemed to believe.

Wraith started talking to Octane through the earpiece, giving him clear instructions on what to do.

"Open the program in the middle of your screen and just do what I tell you to do. You have to blend in perfectly and by that I mean that you have to look innocent. Now just start doing what the screen tells you to do."

Octane was suprised about how Wraith knew so much. But he was not gonna question it. He booted up the program and proceeded to do the tasks he was assigned in silence, his foot tapping on the floor impatiently.

He was currently sitting in complete silence and he hated it.

Hours passed as he just sat there doing the work as a bell rang, announcing theur break as everyone got up to leave the room.

Octane was deprived and decided to take his chance to explore the facility. And by explore he meant sticking his nose in places it didnt belong.

First though he wanted to grab a shitty snsck from the cafeteria. It had been quite a while since his breakfast and Wraith only did so much scrambled eggs for him.

Seeing a vending machine in the back and just taking Luna's advice he decided to not get something from the chef, but instead just throw some cash in the vending mashine and get a small snack out of it.

He leaned forward to inspect what was in there and the lack if the good stuff was very disappointing. Nontheless he decided to go with a chocolate bar and a small coffee. It wasn't much but it was definetly better than nothing.

He was currently nibbling on the chocolate treat as Wraith came on the comms, however not alone this time. She was accompanied by Mirage and Bangalore.

"Octavio?"

Octane swiftly exited the cafeteria so that he would be by himself.

"I'm here, amiga. ¿Qué tal?"

"Hey Octavio if you get the job done I'll kick Renee's ass. She didn't talk to any of us about this. I am positive that you can do it though, watch your six."

"Gotchu, lady."

Mirage took the mic and cleared his throat for a couple of seconds before taking a deep breath.

"He-heeeey buddy- How are you doing? Well you're currently in a dangerous facility where you will probably be executed if you get caught, haha-"

He gulped as Bangalore and Wraith gave him a slightly annoyed look, mixed with mild aggression.

"A-aaaanyway so uh... That Luna girl? Wraith showed us the footage and uh- Yeah she's kinda cute can you like- Get her number?"

"Mirage! Cut to the point." Wraith had her hand on the mic as she tried to pull it out of his hands. A few seconds passed where judging by the noises, they were fighting over the mic.

Octane couldnt help but to chuckle a little before Mirage made a victorious sound, followed by Wraith whispering something and Bangalore sighing.

"So yeah... Buddy! We're here and you got our support! You can do it kid! I-I'm putting my thumbs up but you can't see us- Can he see us? Don't think he can... Uuuuhhhh yeah back to Wraithy!"

Octane chuckled yet again, this time at the embarassing nickname the skirmisher had just received.

"Just proceed. You're on a good way. Try and break into the room where you were with Luna earlier today. Change your clearance and gain access to the labs."

Octane shoved the last bits of the treat down his throats, drinking the coffee in one go before slowly leaving the area.

He would be lying if he said that he remembers where the room was. In fact, he was quite lost right now. He walked forth and back, awkwardly greeting passing scientists and other employees while looking for the destination.

Lucky for him though, he discovered a map on the wall that showed the exact layout of the layer he was on. According to the text below the rooms that were pictured on it, there was a list of layers.

And there were quite a few.

He managed to locate the room though. Octane quickly made his way there and opened the door, closing it behind him. The daredevil leaned over a computer which told him to enter a code.

Wraith gave him a code out of nowhere.

It made him shrug that she popped on the comms for like a second or 2 before going silent again.

LRLUP? What was that supposed to mean? Whatever, he entered the code as the symbol that usually showed up when one of Crypto's hacking devices was used on something.

He was in.

"Open the only program this thing has and insert your card number. You should be able to change your clearance."

Octane did as he was told and booted the program up, then being asked to input his ID number.

He did so, taking a little while tho as it was 16 random numbers.

Once the numbers were entered he stared at the screen in disbelief.

Maximum clearance? What? How?

He knew how-

"Took you long enough. Let's burn this place down, shall we?"

Behind him was Luna, she hid behind a cupboard so Octane didnt see her while entering.

"Chica, what is the meaning of all this? You kinda lost me."
