Chapter 8: Retribution

We start going through the familiar metal vent. Going through it again I almost forgot how unbearably dusty this vent is. Fortunately, we learned that if we keep moving the vent won't collapse on us. So we are moving a lot faster than before. Silicon also learned to put on a respirator so she wouldn't breathe in so much dust and have an asthma attack. 
We make it to the hole we fell through, Silicon takes a leap and was able to get to the other side without any problem. I leap forward after her, but I miss judge the distance and start slipping. Silicon grabs my hands and pulls me up. I look down the hole and see two security androids walking past. Thank goodness they did not notice us.
We keep moving forward heading towards Stan Works office. This entire journey has been nothing I have seen before, nor has it been anything anyone has seen before. Going through this resort and seeing the very nirvana people have only dreamed about. the more I look at it the more I realize how disappointing it all is. This is the life that we all strive for and coming here I realize it's not as great as we like it to be. But all that will change once we take control of its system. It's all going to change how we live, I don't need to worry about anything and I can finally live comfortably. I can create my nirvana, one I can be satisfied with. 

After a long journey, we exit the vent and end up in a hallway. It's a large rectangular hallway with lavishly carves wooden walls. on either side is a door, the door close to us has a gold plate on the center of it that says 'Stan work'. This is after so long everything I have ever wanted is beyond this door. Silicon and I put our hands on the door knobs. She looks at me "Are you ready" I nod.
We swing the doors wide and run in. There is a large square room, the walls lined with books of different titles. On one end we see a large screen that takes up the wall. and the other is a large intricately carved wooden desk. On top of it are a Computer screen, a heavy-looking keyboard, a few fountain pens, an open notebook, and some scattered paper. On the other end of it is a large leather office chair and sitting on it is a man wearing a suit and tie with a comb-over and stock expression. He is furiously typing away at the computer. On his suit, you can see a metal name tag that simply says, Stan Work.
Silicon did not waste time, the moment she saw him the trigger was already pulled. Multiple shots ring out as the bullets riddle him and force him to fall out of the chair. We now see the man who controlled the very citadel of the world oligarchs sprawled dead on the floor.
"That was for everything" Muttered Silicon rushing towards the computer. She quickly plugs in her mini-computer to begin hacking. "this shouldn't take a while"
I take the time to look at the office. I see a book that I found quite interesting, I go to pull it out but it wouldn't move. This must just be a tight shelf, I pull on it harder until I rip out the spine. I turn to look at the book and I realize that the book was fake. Just wood and cardboard to make it look like books. 
"We did it, I got in" Said Silicon excitedly "We control the resort's network. Time to cash out." 
I look back at her and see Stans' body sprawled out. I go toward it curiously and somewhat nervous.
"money is in our accounts, ha that's weird" Said Silicon Curiously "when I look at the resorts receipts it's not addressed to the resort or Stan Works"
I stand above Stans' body and my heart sinks and terror. None of the bullet holes were bleeding
"It's addressed to someone named"
"How may I help you two." Suddenly the T.V turn on revealing a blue triangle over a white background.

"Keith"
