Chapter 3: Strange Messages

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

H-huh?

Alpha stares at his screen, dumb struck.

There were many reasons for this. 1. Being the greatest hacker, no one had ever managed to hack into his system 2. Hacking into his system was not an easy task, so obviously the hacker must have had a reason 3. Which stupid person came up with such a cheesy line!!!??????

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

What on earth----

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*blinking in disbelief*

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

H-how...

After snapping out of the shock, he begins typing in furiously trying to track the hacker down by getting their IP address

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

I'll find out just who you are *types furiously*

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

Somewhere far away, the hacker sees Alpha's attempts to break into his system

？？？

I'm terminating the connection, my queen. He's trying to track me down

？？？

*sighs* Already??? Come on, I needed to---

？？？

Later, otherwise he'll find out about us

The hacker starts breaking all the links and connections and exits from Alpha's system

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

Damn it!!!!!! The person disconnected!!!!

Alpha's screen flashes back to the original screen, the message gone

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*slams his fist on the table* this is not possible!!!!

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

I've checked all my firewalls and defenses, no one can break into my systems

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

So who managed to break in??? And all for a strange cheesy line?

As Alpha closes his eyes in frustration, the lines flash by in his head once more Are you Netflix?? Because I could binge-watch you all night

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*opens his eyes* What the heck----- Who even came up with something so stupid

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*checks the clock* damn it's way past midnight. I need to investigate this tomorrow. *packs his bag and leaves his office*

As Alpha walks alone, his mind is flooded by thoughts. Who was sending him the message? Who hacked into his system? What was happening?

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*thinks* What could it have meant? Netflix? Binge-watch?

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

Is it a coded way of declaring war on us??? Do they want to acquire Netflix!? Will they take over our country's broadcasting companies!?????

Damn this guy is dumb, isn't he?

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*determined* I need to get to the bottom of this! I will never let a cyberwar start!

Alpha reaches his home and sleeps, determined to catch the culprits

Meanwhile, somewhere else....

？？？

He must be Impressed right?? I've admitted that I can watch him forever. He's got to be touched right??? Right!?????? *shiny eyes, expectant* (⁠*⁠´⁠ω⁠｀⁠*⁠)

？？？

*proud* I've got to be the most clever person alive!!!!

？？？

*stares in disbelief and thinks* does she honestly think that something so cheesy would touch someone's heart? (⁠＠⁠_⁠＠⁠;⁠)

？？？

Huff (⁠٥⁠↼⁠_⁠↼⁠) whatever you think my queen *i really don't want to burst her bubble and make her upset*

？？？

You just can't admit that I've thought of such a clever plan heh (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠) Anyway, we'll continue with this and send him texts every day, there's no way he could resist me then

？？？

Great gods, The poor guy is gonna be traumatized

And hence started a new and exciting phase in Alpha's life. Every day, at night he would receive strange messages as his screen would glitch, and a cheesy line would flash past

•

The Next Day

""Is your name Wi-Fi? Because I'm feeling a strong connection.""

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

*eye twitches* who on earth---

•

Second Day

""Did you fall from heaven? Because you look like an angel!""

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

This is so old, who even uses this trashy line these days----

•

Third Day

""On a scale of 1 to 10, you're a 9... and I'm the 1 you need.""

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

JUST WHO THE FUDGE IS SENDING THESE MESSAGES!!!!!????????

And so the cycle continued, Alpha kept receiving the strange messages for the entire week. Every time he tried to track down the other hacker, he would be left at a dead end as the hacker was quick and swift to disconnect while leaving no traces

On the weekend, as Alpha was at his home, his phone rang, and he lifted it up with zero interest

Alpha ⟨Alvin Jones⟩

Hello? Who is it? *uninterested, bored tone*

？？？

*a strangely calm and relaxing voice replies* Forgotten your friend already?
