Bianca's POV
I have a visitor today, and I wonder who he is. Nobody comes to visit me as I have nobody in this world. The last visitor I had was Ethan Maverick. He took what he wanted and left. I did not even see him. I do not want to think about that day because it makes me bitter and hate them even more. The people I hate the most in the world are the Maverick family. I have been in this hellhole for two years. They set me up. I do not want to think about my past right now.
My body is toned as I exercise a lot. I want to be strong and healthy, although I know I will not leave here soon.
A man with a black suit comes walking to me where I am waiting in the meeting area. Many of the women that are in jail with me get to come here a lot.
I look around. I've never been here because nobody ever visited me. Well, not here. Not in this room. I'll look at the man curiously as he's come and sit in front of me.
"So you are V1P3R, or shall I call you Viper?" The man asks with a smile. V1P 3R is my hacker name, or Viper, as they know me.
"It depends on who wants to know. I am Bianca Henderson—a nobody with no family here in this place." I say.
"I'm Agent Malone. I'm here to offer you a job. I cannot tell you too much inside here. I say we are an organization you would love to work with, and we can get you out of here." Agent Malone says.
"I will do anything to get the hell out of here. Listen, I don't care if you offer me a cleaners job. I will take it." I say.
I must leave to get my revenge and the most precious thing in my life back.
"Everything is arranged. You will be released on my watch—no funny business. Do not try to escape us, as we are the organization. Where can be your best friends or worst enemies," Malone says.
I roll my eyes. Why would I want to escape them and come back to this hellhole? Not that anybody messes with me in here because I do not allow them to. I am a loner, but they know not to mess with me, as I almost killed a lady who tried to mess with me once.
"I prefer to have you as friends. Anybody who can get me out of this hellhole is my friend anyway. When can I leave?" I ask.
I think my tears dried up long ago because I can not cry anymore. So far, my life has been hell. It cannot get any worse, can it? Ever since my parents died, I never had anybody.
"The paperwork is done. So you will be leaving with me right now." Agent Malone says as he hands me clothing to go and put on. I am not allowed to take any of my belongings that I took the day they put me in jail.
We walk out of the hellhole, and I hear the door slam behind me, hopefully for the last time. I wonder who this organization is and how they have so much power to get me out of jail. I guess I will find out soon.
We get into a black SUV and drive away.
"Here are your new identity documents. From now on, you will be known as Marissa White. You will have to get used to that name, which will be your name from now on. We do not want the Maverick family coming after you again." Agent Malone says.
"So you know my history?" I ask. I do not ask him if he believes in my innocence because nobody believes me.
"Yes, we also know that you were not guilty. We know that Liam was the one that took the jewelry from his parent's house. He framed you by putting one piece of jewelry in your suitcase and told them you must probably have sold the rest. It did not help that you had a big bank account for all the hacking you did for people. You couldn't explain to the court where you got the money from because what you did was illegal, and they would not have believed that an eighteen-year-old could have made so much money from hacking and providing information to people willing to pay big money on the dark web. We know everything. We know what you have done and have admired your work for a long time. I hope you kept practicing while in jail. I haven't seen V1P3R on the dark web since you went to prison." Agent Malone says.
"I kept practicing but did not go on the dark web because I was constantly watched. That's what made me wonder how you pulled it off to get me out of jail without the Maverick family knowing." I say.
"We are more influential. The organization is a big company. We will train you not only to be a hacker but also to become an agent like me. We know what the family did to you, but you cannot go near them for now. We must do many things before we can go after the Maverick family. Only Ethan Maverick is off-limits. He has done nothing wrong. He has distanced himself from his family. We know he also has a dark past and that there are things that his family did to him that made him the way he is today. Stay away from Ethan Maverick for now. He's not the one we are after his family because they have double-crossed us, and nobody double-crosses the organization. We are after the father, Sam, and the mother, Miranda, and Liam and his wife, Chantelle. You were not the only one they did wrong." Agent Malone says.
"So the organization is what? A government organization?" I ask.
"We work for everyone. We work for governments. We work for whoever needs our help. Sometimes the government needs our service, and they will come to us. But we are not outlaws. They're a good organization. We help people like you, and we help people that need our help." Agent Malone says.
"You are not going to ask me if I want a red or a blue pill, are you? You know, like in the Matrix movies?" I say when I see Malone getting a little bit confused.
"No, but you are funny." Agent Malone says.
"So you're telling me you would help me even if I could not help you? If I were not the best hacker in the world?"
I say matter of fact because I know I am. I am not being boastful. It is just a fact that the whole world knows Viper is the best hacker. I've seen a lot of vlogs on the Internet asking what happened to Viper. Sometimes all the fun, I would post random documents on platforms. Records that I hacked, and I thought it was fun to see celebrities and wealthy people scramble to try and get copies of their deepest darkest secrets of the Internet. They wanted to deny it, but nobody believed it because Viper posted it. It was a little game I played so that people knew what I could do if they mess with me.
We stopped in front of the Maverick Towers. I read the name of the building, and my eyes are full of hate because I know this is where Ethan Maverick works. He wants the one that took away the most precious thing in the world to me. The one thing that stopped me from committing suicide inside the jail. That is the only reason I kept living and fighting. So one day, I could return and get what belonged to me.
I hate the Maverick family, and although I've never met Ethan. I hate him with everything in my heart.
"You are here because you are the best hacker in the world. You are also here because you are gorgeous. We are going to train you to become the best agent there is. Now about Ethan Maverick. We know he has something you want but cannot have. It would be best to remember when nobody could care for the little boy, he was the one that did not want to let go of his nephew. You could not keep the boy because you were in prison. We know you begged to see and hold your baby once, but he knew you would not be able to live without your son if you did. He was not heartless, and he loves your son like his own. He was the one that made sure that the other Maverick family members did not know about your son. They would not have let him live. You know that. Ethan Maverick protected your son against his father and grandparents." Agent Malone says.
"How do you know all this? How do you know what Ethan Maverick was thinking? Were you watching me the whole time while I was in jail? Were you working for the Maverick family? Or are you still working for them? And are you taking me to a place to kill me?" I ask.
I am unsure if I have made the right decision by getting into a car with somebody I do not know.
I look at the Maverick Towers again as we start driving again.
My heart longs to hold my little boy. I did not even keep time to hold him, not even once. I do not even know what my son's name is. They just took him from me, and I want him back.
"We did not work for the Maverick family. We worked with them once, but that was before Ethan left the family, and they did us wrong as they did with you and Ethan. However, we did work for Ethan Maverick. We kept an eye on you because he asked us to. He knew you were not guilty, and he couldn't do anything to prove it because his brother and parents did a good job making you look guilty. Do you know many more families like the Maverick family in this world always do people wrong, and we work against them? We also work against those who do other people wrong. We work against human traffickers that steal children. We have a hospital where we keep children that have been severely mistreated. Their own families even sold some of those children. Some of those children were used as s*x slaves and suffered. We have an island where we keep people safe. There are even adults that we keep safe there. We get our funds from the people we are trying to bring to justice. That is where you and your team will come in. Viper must return to the dark net and do what V1P3R does best. We will get the Maverick family when the time is right, and I promise we will help you. But we hoped you could think about Ethan Maverick before you go after him. He is the one who saved your little boy's life. We will take you to the building from where you and your team will start working. You do not have to stay on the island because you are not a victim. People are waiting for you that will change your look so that the Maverick family will never notice that you are Bianca Henderson, who tragically just took her life in jail today, and Marissa White was born. Yes, no one knows you walked out of jail with me. We have people working for us in the prison. All the Maverick spies are not working today, so we could set up your suicide. The paperwork I was talking about, you know. Our team of experts will tell you everything about your life and that you are a very privileged little wealthy girl that just returned from boarding school her parents sent her to in Europe. We will need to rub arms with the rich and famous in this city as well as hacking. Do you think you are up to the task, Marissa?" Agent Malone asks.
"Taking down the wealthy families, I think I cannot rule over everybody. Heck yeah, I'm ready. Look out, world, the socialite Marissa White has arrived in town, and V1P3R is back in business," I say with a smile.
For the first time, I see Agent Malone smile, and I cannot wait for the day I can help them take down the Maverick family. I am still not sure about Ethan Maverick, but time will tell.
