I looked at my reflection on the mirror for the last time. I Saw an anxious & excited face simultaneously starting back at me. Yes i was damn nervous. I was going to murder a man for the first time in my life without even knowing him. It's Richard's order. He said this man did something nasty so he needed to be punished. No mercy. & it's a rule. And I would do anything for my dad. Yeah he was my dad not the biological one tho. But  he was all i would ever need.

" Aidan i have raised you more than your mother ever did, hove done for you than she ever could.I am  all you will ever need . " I remembered him saying that . Know what?

He was damn right!

My biological mother left me in his hospital when i was about 3 months. Well Richard established his own " Richard Agency " at his early age. Besides doing routine work his agency offered free medical services globally. Being a doctor he always had a great passion in helping people. Back in the story, Richard adopted me after my mother had left me.  I fucking owed him.

My clock on my table flashed 10:30 pm. I still had massive time. I felt the urge to clean something. I knew it would soothe my nerves.

OCD inside me identified a small spot on the floor so I decided to spend the rest of my time scrubbing the life out of it!

My dad never wanted me to associate with me with other people. He was scared that people would screw me over if they got to know about my supernatural  power in me. I barely used it though.

Everything he did for me was for my protection. Everything he did for me was out of love.

After i was done with my cleaning i wore my black hoodie and sauntered to the garage. It was pretty hot in Malibu. You might ask why i was wearing a hoodie then? Well I wasn't a normal person. When i felt  extremely anxious or when it was time for me to use my power  I would grow cold.

I jumped into my  favourite blue Porsche  and drove off to my destination.

I looked at the piece of paper that Richard gave me last night. I wanted to be sure if i was going to the right direction. I checked the name again.

Henry Milford

9.3.2019

Hello?" Andrew said grabbing the land phone fitted on the wall ."It's Andrew taggart speaking".

Andrew was undeniably a good looking guy with his dark brown hair styled up always. He had brown beautiful eyes which was warm and inviting & strong chiselled jawline.

He waited for the answer from the other side of the phone.

Then smiled as soon as he heard the voice . His smile was undoubtedly the breathtaking one.

"Well,well It seems like you two are having a good time..it's obvious,isn't it?"

"Yes we had..But I think we have a very serious business to deal with now".

"What happened?" Andrew's eyebrows frowned into confusion.He could sense the seriousness of her tone.

"Where's clay?

"He has gone for tracking".

"Please tell him to come back as soon as possible. because we two are also heading back to America".

"Could you please tell me what's going on Sandra?!"He said being quiet impatient.

"I think we might have a case to handle ..not sure tho.Allison has called me . She said someone or some people sabotaged a lot of computers of 3 major parts of the California.She thinks we might want to look trough the matter".

Listening to this a wide smile appeared on Andrew's face as if a blood hound has tracked down his prey. And since it was a summer break Andrew didn't want to have second thoughts.

"Let's bring this show on road"

Sandra's  fingers were hovering over the keyboard.

"See? Someone is trying to sabotage all the computers in this part of California" she said to

Andrew & Tony Pointing her fingers at some black dots floating on the screen of computer.

Black dots were indicating the places where sabotage happened. Andrew & Sandra had collected information from Allision.

Allision was their bosom friend and a well wisher too. Most importantly her father was a victim of the occurrence.

"Yo look,Our late man is here!" Tony mocked as he saw Clay entering into the room."

Clay was wearing a dark blue jeans & a white T-shirt "pretty ricky" on it.Clay got mousy brown hair that is always flicked up at the front & rest is messily styled up to perfection.His Jawline was sharp & eyes were stunning blue.

" hey i have things to do other than flirting "  Clay snarled at him. Tony glared at him. Clay gasped as if he had finished a marathon.

" okay I'm sorry .please carry on" Clay said settling down to a chair next to Andrew.

" Sandra? Can you tell us the incident again for Clay?" Andrew pleaded innocently knowing Sandra would hate to repeat again.

" okay okay I'm repeating it again like for 5555th time & for the last time " Sandra huffed in pure annoyance .

Then she patiently told them again what happened exactly.

" Are you sure that these computers have been sabotaged?" Clay asked.

" yeah.. Total 19 computers have been damaged consecutively in a short time & it's not normal " Sandra replied quickly.

"I don't think that only one person is working behind it...I think a group of people are doing this.." Clay said.

"How? And Most importantly why?" Tony asked being excited.

"Yes Tony .. That's why we are going to work on this case  to find out what's really going on.."Andrew said lightly,tinge of happiness in his voice.

"But first let us think about the motives... For  this we need to ask ourselves first... If I am a criminal who is crashing down computers one after another then why would I do that?"

"For money?"Said Clay sitting across from Andrew at the table.

"Fine...but how those person earning money by this?"Sandra said tapping the table"...there must be a strong point..I couldn't think of any source that would give them money for doing this.."

"Sandra you are missing something...One source can give them money for doing this"Andrew said grabbing is hair lightly.

"And what is it?"Sandra pouted.

"What if all the computers are made by the same company?but it has to be some local but famous company because a international brand wouldn't take any risk that will bring down their reputation" Andrew said.

"Why would they do it?" Tony asked.

"For increasing the rate of selling of course..if computers keep crashing like this amount  it's obvious for people to buy a new one.Most of the people are going to choose the cheap but the good one"Andrew said.

"It can only relate to Alpha if your contention is right,cause it's the best selling computer of this vast area" Clay said shrugging his shoulders.

"well this is weird.. Don't you think it's pretty inconsequential for Alpha to do such a nasty job if it's already a best selling company?"Tony said quickly.

"Yes it is. Plus people are going to think a lot about buying it again. Even people would like to try different brand rather buying it again. Let's see it from a different point of view.Do you know about the company Roser?"asked Andrew.

"No"they replied in unison.

"Well it was the best selling computer company before Alpha. People don't buy computer from them anymore cause Alpha makes better computer then them. So it won't be so queer if they want to bring down the Alpha. You know people can be desperate if they have nothing to lose.Sometimes they lose themselves too.I have also heard that Roser has reached in a position of bankruptcy"Andrew sighed.

"So what do we do?" Tony asked.

"We are gonna meet Mr. Henry Milford,the owner of the Roser " Andrew said with a smile

" yes sir .. We just want to write an article about Someone famous like you on our school magazine. Actually it's our special edition sir " Andrew lied under his breath.

"Now? Sure we are coming right away Sir, thank you " Andrew replied politely.

Sandra was hearing Andrew's conversation with mr.Milford over telephone & she realised that it was a positive answer from mr. Milford.

" Gotta go Sandra" Andrew said like a giddy kid.

They got into Andrew's Dark blue Saleen & Sped up through the traffics.

While driving  Andrew let his finger drum against the steering wheel.As He was inclined to do when thinking deeply, he started bitting his bottom lips.It was one of his infamous characteristic sigh when he was overthinking.

On the other hand Sandra remained silent and consumed by her own thoughts.She already knew asking Andrew something right now would be like trying to make a conversation with a tree cause he was never going to answer her anyways .But the silence was comfortable and they looked like nothing but two high school teenagers .Sandra was wearing a dark blue tight jeans & maroon Striped polo shirt. She let her head rest against the window.

She had dark brown straight hair which ended above her shoulder.She gave her hair a summer cut & it suited her perfectly. Her big eyes were deep brown &  breathtakingly beautiful. They were dreamy .And her lips were plump & captivating. She literally looked like a barbie doll.

oh! i totally forgot to tell you about them.

'.They means Andrew taggart,Sandra Casto ,Clay nichols and Tony patino. If you are wondering that they are some kind of Agents or detectives

No!no they aren't . It's just Mystery attracts them like magnets. And they had helped The police department of rocky beach a few times.This lead them having two years of hard-won,street-savvy experience under their belt.And know what? they were becoming popular in their job.

They just want to find the truth when no one is watching it.But as much as they like to reveal truth they also like to hide themselves too.They never let anyone get nosy about their business.Its just some of their close friends know about them.

Sandra squeezed her eyes as the sun rays hit her face. She fixed her gaze on the road.

They didn't need any kind of map as Andrew already knew about the place .When Mr.milford was giving directions to his house Andrew almost choked out.

Almost

Because little did he know it was one of the shabbiest parts of the California.

Like seriously?

The owner of the most infamous company of California .. Who had the world down at his feet how the hell he managed to end up like this?

After awhile Andrew parked his car bit far away from Mr. Milford's house

Same thing plopped into their heads as they stood examining the house. Henry was undoubtedly in need of money.

Andrew kept his face neutral as a matter of fact that he always had a good control over his nerves.

"Let's keep the flag flying" Sandra gave him a wiry smile.

Then Andrew knocked at the fractured wooden  door only to reveal bearded, bespectacled,angry little man. He was holding a pistol on his left hand firmly.

" I swear I'm gonna kill you today bastard !" He growled.

******

Making conversation with people was easy as pie for Tony. At least he knew how to make people talk to him & trust him all over.And being the centre of the attention was his speciality. Maybe this is why he was the high school crush.Girls literally drool over him.

Don't think that Clay & Andrew don't have any secret admirers . But their social skill is not near good as Tony So their admirers horribly failed only to say hi to them let alone confess their feelings towards them.

" Hey wait up Tony " Clay said. They decided to take their cycle because they needed to stop frequently for their inquiry.

" Now what?" Tony snapped.

" we need split up otherwise it's gonna take long *** time?" Clay said ruffling his hair.

" Are you sure you can do it without me? Please don't end up crying like a school girl " Tony grinned.His golden  hair was shining because of the bright sunlight.

" if i had enough time I would love to smack that pretty face of yours but unfortunately I don't have it now " Clay winked at him.

" i love you too" Tony replied with a smirk.

Then they both headed to their separate ways
