66 Conference Meeting

We began to walk over to the library, which I had no idea where it was, but I just followed Mari who seemed to know somehow. We walked for a while in silence, before Mari decided to talk again. “So, how have you been?” she asked.

“Well, not too well I guess,” I said. “I mean, I just found out that my friends and I are going to have to leave our homes and go on a dangerous mission to save a person who tried to kill me before.”

“That’s how it’s always gonna be,” Mari said. “It’s hard most of the time.”

“I know,” I said. “But it’s worth it.”

“Yeah, it is,” she said. “To save people and to keep them from destroying our way of life. It’s what we have to do.”

“I know,” I said. “But it’s still hard.” We finally arrived at the library, and it must be a very big one. The building was quite wide, very wide in fact.

It had many different levels and a big sign that said “Library” in big letters. “This is the place,” Mari said.

The building had this brown and gray pattern and the structure was quite exhilarating. It made me feel a little giddy, as I had never seen such a big library before. “Let’s go in,” Mari said, as she walked in.

The place was really just something else. The tiles when walking in were gold and the chandeliers were a bright white. It was really something to see. Then after about a fifty feet ahead was the actual library, with shelves upon shelves upon shelves of books. It was like a maze and I got lost just looking at it.

.....

Many students were there for some reason, as I saw them walking around with their books. “This place is amazing,” I said.

“Yeah, it is,” Mari said. “Alright, let’s find Matt.” We began to search, me taking the right and her taking the left. With every shelf hallway, I keenly looked through, trying to find him. But he was nowhere to be found.

Hall after hall I searched, to no avail. I was getting frustrated and Mari must’ve noticed. “He’s not here,” she said.

“I know,” I said. “But he has to be.” Just then, I heard a voice call out my name. It sounded like Matt. “Connor!” the voice said again. It was coming from the other side of the hall, as we both looked in that direction, to see Matt walking towards us.

“Matt,” I said, as he arrived. “Where were you?”

“I could ask you the same thing,” he said. “But more importantly, what’s going on?”

“Yeah, he is,” I said. “He was kidnapped by someone from the TSA, we need you to help us.

“Of course,” he said. “Anything for Tisiah.”

“Alright, let’s go then,” Mari said. We began to walk back the way we came and I took one last look at the library, before we left. It was a place I would definitely come back to, when all of this was over.

“So what exactly do you need me to do?” Matt asked. “Inform Mr. Drails about our new team,” I said.

“How about the old team?” he inquired.

“They’ll still be needed,” I said. “However, we’ll need to hire some new people.”

“Who?” he questioned.

“Well, we were thinking of you,” I explained. “Perhaps Rin as well.”

“Rin?” he solicited. “Who exactly is he?” I chuckled at my forgetfulness and explained, “He’s someone who helped us win the WAC contest while you guys were-you know-knocked out.”

“Ah, gotcha,” he responded. “But I don’t know if I’m the best person for the job.”

“You’re one of the smartest people I know,” I said. “I trust you.”

He was silent for a few moments before replying with a simple, “Okay.”

We eventually made it back to the official YMPA buliding, our sights set on Mr. Drails’s office. We walked up the stairs once we got in, making it towards Mr. Drails’s door. Once we arrived, I knocked on it.

“Come in,” a voice said from the other side. I slowly opened the door, to see Mr. Drails sitting at his desk, with many papers spread out before him. “Ah, Connor,” he said as he noticed me. “Mari, Matt,” he greeted them as well. “These are your new teammates if I’m not wrong Connor?”

“Yes, they are,” I said as I gestured to them. “I’m sorry for the-you know-unfortunate events that occurred.”

“Yes, quite,” he said. “But it’s in the past now.”

“So what’s our next move?” Mari inquired.

“Well,” Mr. Drails said, slowly getting up from his seat. “Analyze the video once again with the whole team again. You could try and find more information. This is an agent’s life in danger, so we need to take this seriously.” We all nodded in agreement as Mr. Drails walked towards the door. “Oh, and Connor?”

“Yes?” I said as I looked back at him.

“Good luck,” he said with a smile, before leaving the office.

We all decided to head to the conference room, as it would be easier to look at the video there. If you didn’t know, there is a conference that is right behind this building. It’s like the bump of the infrastructure. The place had a large gray table, with about fifteen chairs placed around it.

The conference room was a long, rectangular room with a large gray table in the center. Fifteen chairs were placed around the table, giving everyone plenty of space to work. The walls were a light beige color, with several paintings hanging on them.

The carpet in the conference room was a light brown color and it was quite comfortable to walk on. The room also had a large TV, which was currently turned off.

“Okay,” I acknowledged, as Matt and Mari all took their seats. “I’m gonna go and get September and Malachi, just gotta go back to the training center and find them.”

They nodded slowly as I exited the room, making my way back to the training center. Once I got there, I looked around and didn’t see any sign of them.

Uh...where were they?

Maybe the library, but they couldn’t be. I was just in the library and I didn’t see them!

But then, I heard a voice behind me say, “Connor?”

I turned around to see September and Malachi walking toward me. “Hey guys,” I greeted them. “I was just searching for you guys.”

“Oh,” September said, looking surprised for some reason. “You found Matt and Mari?”

“Yeah,” I said as I nodded. “We’re in the conference room right now. We’re gonna go over the video again and see if we could find anything new.”

“Got it,” Malachi said. “Let’s go then.”

I led them back to the conference room, opening the door for them as they walked through the room. Matt and Mari seemed to be quite surprised by Malachi for some reason, but then again, he was popular.

“So, this is Matt and Mari?” Malachi asked, seeming a bit intrigued. Mari began to tremble in excitement and I could only roll my eyes. “Why is she doing that?” Malachi asked concernedly.

“She’s just a really big fan of yours,” I explained, as Mari began to calm down. “Anyway, take a seat and we’ll get started.”

We all sat down in our respective seats as I hit the play button in space. It showed the usual, Rocke getting out of the black car and moving towards the cafe, but before it could continue, Mari paused.

“Is that the guy that kidnapped Tisiah?” Mari asked. Everyone’s eyes widened in realization.

“Yeah,” I said, feeling a bit angry. “That’s the guy.”

“But why would he take Tisiah?” Matt questioned. “It doesn’t make any sense.”

“I don’t know,” I said, as I shook my head. “But we’re gonna find out hopefully from this video. We made some assumptions about what he was trying to do. We think he’s trying to steal a robot called the Cybertron, and the reason why I say that is because-” I continued the video as he grabbed the diamond and then I paused. “-of the diamond he grabbed, which if you look at the model of it, there is an opening to where it’s about the same size.”

Matt nodded. “Do you guys have the address of where it’s at?”

“Yeah,” I said as I pulled out my phone, before looking at the address and then showing it to Matt. He then saved it on his phone before putting it away.

“Okay,” Mari said, as she hit play again. We watched as Rocke got into the black car and drove off, and we didn’t see it once again. “So, where’s Rin?” September asked. “I need to get him real quick,” I muttered, realizing.

But here’s the problem. I have no idea where he is. Since the WAC match, I haven’t seen him since then.
