Disaster *

"I'm going to kill him, now I'm going to kill that jerk. It doesn't matter that he's my biological brother."

We arrived at the office again, me wearing a mask and sunglasses. I looked like a movie star. 

The employees looked at me in amazement, and when I walked into Lucas's office like a wild beast about to slit someone's throat, they stood up in fear.

Someone was about to call security but Vin came up behind me, carrying my bag and telling everyone to return to their seats.

Then he closed the door behind me.

"What does he have against you, Lucas?"

The young man with blue eyes and brown hair seemed surprised by my spectacular arrival. I had never set foot in the office before, for fear that we were being watched. Especially Thunder, but I didn't care anymore.

"It's nothing that serious, I can handle this."

"Really? Where is Sarah?"

Lucas frowned and avoided my gaze. "She's in a safe place."

"Tell me now or I swear I'll find her right then and..."

"She's in the hospital…" he sighed and I saw him clench his fists tightly. The expression on his face was of anger, helplessness, and frustration. "Sorry I didn't tell you, I didn't mean… but she didn't want anyone to find out."

I sat in the chair across from him and took off my mask and glasses. "Tell me what happened, what did Ian do?"

Lucas opened his eyes and looked at me. "He called her, he told her that she had pictures of me with a woman."

"Is that true?"

He looked down. "It was a mistake, a trap. Three nights ago I went to a bar with the other employees to celebrate the project and its approval."

That was the day I mailed him the approval of his plan.

"We celebrated and drank for a long time, almost till late into the night. Then… a girl, I don't know her name, came up to me, and we started flirting… you know. At first, it was kind of casual, I didn't think I would… we would take it further. I was with the team and I had to see that everyone got home safely. But... I started to feel dizzy and... and when I found out I was in bed with that woman. I don't know who it was, I woke up and she wasn't there."

I crossed my arms. Knowing Ian, he might be capable of that and more. Maybe the poor girl was also blackmailed into doing that.

"Do you remember what she was like?"

Lucas blushed and nodded. "When I got to the company the next day, Sarah wasn't in her office. I looked everywhere for her, but couldn't find her. After a few hours, I asked Vin to help me, but Sarah just texted me, and then I got a call. She told me she was fine, that she was visiting a client. I got worried anyway, and… and I asked Vin to find her…"

Vin was next to me looking down, also with his fists clenched.

"We found her in an apartment, she seems to have been beaten and... I don't know what else... Then we found out that Ian had taken pictures of her and was threatening us again to leave the project or he would expose the pictures. Sarah had a copy of the first draft of the project... that's where they got it from."

Vin sat up and looked at me seriously. "It seems he has hired a powerful hacker. We don't know who he is, but we haven't been able to steal those photos and videos back. Every time we try he stops us immediately."

I nodded, "Fine leave it to me, as for Ian I will give that jerk what he deserves. Do you want to play dirty? Well, let's get started."

I met with Vin's team in a private room. No one knew my true identity as Eve Lark, so I wasn't worried that they would see my face.

"Who is she, Vin?" one of the team leaders asked first. He was very interested in me. I feel like I've seen him somewhere. He seemed to be in his late twenties, with tired programmer panda eyes. The others looked older too, at least older than Vin and me.

Vin sighed to make the excitement and tension build. "This is Eva Cote," he said with a big smile, "Better known as Storm and our boss."

There was a moment of silence, deep and graceful. I saw one of them drip water from his mouth back into the cup, another narrowly fell off his seat, and everyone seemed to have their eyes widened all of a sudden. It was funny.

"It can't be... my goddess Storm."

"It's her, I definitely knew that she was beautiful. Everyone said that she was a fat man in his fifties who liked to play all day in the basement of his grandma."

"It can't be... it can't be, it's her..."

After several had to leave the room to take a deep breath, we returned to work.

First of all, it was to recover the pictures and at the same time discover the stupid hacker who worked for my brother.

"He's covered his tracks well," said Chuck, Vin's friend and project leader.

Seems like I've seen him before when I first met Vin and they were video chatting. At that time we were in high school.

"We only know his username, Disaster."

"No problem, just be alert when he contacts me, he'll try to cover his tracks, and I want to fry that jerk today."

The team nodded enthusiastically. It reminded me of my previous life, with my group of hackers being hunted by the international police. I wonder where they are now? Have they found out who set me up with the bomb? I hope they caught him in time.

"Master!" I heard Vin yell, "we're online now."

I traced the mail and messages that had been sent to Sarah and Lucas, as expected of Ian. The images were encrypted and could not be traced back.

Or so they thought...

I soon started deleting all the images owned by Ian, but as I thought they kept coming back again and again.

[Disaster: do you think you can beat me, DangerousCloud? Don't be an idiot and stay away from this.]
