☯☁ Luciana ❦ ☆Tian Li ♬✦Alverstein
Known to all as...ϟPhoenixϟ
There is no such thing as a lost battle☮ There is only a loss of heart
"College will be the death of me,"
Muttering to herself, Phoenix loped down the staircase in her uneven, somewhat listing gait. Tucked neatly underneath her arm was a folder that was stuffed to the brink of overflowing with papers. Sighing dramatically, she extracted the folder from its little nook and flipped through its unhappy contents, staring wearily at the pages filled with her own, lilting cursive and the angry red marks of the teachers. When Phoenix had applied for Law school, she had expected lots of work. However, this much work-and this much harsh grading-was starting to get to her. On top of the stress built from studies, she was also running around undercover. While it might have seemed impressive that Phoenix could juggle school and her 'super' duties, she was still only 19, and hardly even an adult.
Reaching the bottom of the staircase, Phoenix turned a right and flung open the door to the first classroom-the computer lab. She was somewhat grateful and relieved to find that the room was nearly empty, its only two occupants being a young man and woman. He looked like he was about to murder the computer in front of him, and she seemed to sympathize more with the machine then the man himself. Of course, she had seen both of them around the school before, but because she had never actually approached either of them, it was useless to utter too friendly of a greeting. Flashing a quick smile at both of them, Phoenix pulled out a seat at the other side of the room and setting down the folder, sat down neatly in front of the screen and logged in.
As she waited for the computer to boot up, Phoenix's eyes strayed over to the window near her seat. While many of the students were either chilling out in dorms or attending classes, a select few were dawdling outside in the warming weather, engaging in useless chitchat. Her screen brightening told Phoenix that she could start to work, and opening the folder again, she slipped out five pieces of paper filled with scribbles, crossed out sentences, and notes in the margins. Taking the essay, she opened up a word document and frantically began typing. |

Damn. Computers always give him headaches, that or banging his head on tables whenever they didn't do what he needed them to. Luckily his own guardian tech person appeared out of nowhere to help him out with his endless computer troubles. But instead of a silhouette bathed in sunlight and cloaked in holy robes, they had to settle for terrible eye straining fluorescent lights and 'Star Trek' paraphernalia. Smith studied her body, not in a creepy way though, as she stood over him and fixed the hunk-o-junk in front of him, trying out a more 'Sherlock Holmes' approach to talking to this lady than the failed be-nice-and-polite approached that got him punched and kicked out not a week before. The first thing he noticed were bony long fingers and strained hand vains, showing many hours typing on the computer or writing in a small journal. Couple that with the slight bags under her eyes, from either reading / writing under dim light or staring into a computer for hours at a time, and the final piece of the puzzle, the fact that she was helping him with his blue screen of death, and he had her figured out. She was a computer science major, drawn to the high prestige of LRU, that as a kid was either bullied as a result of her fanboy complex and lack of friends, or grew a fanboy complex because of bullying and a lack of friends. Tough, at least all those nights spent alone watching 'Star Trek' by herself led them to this very moment where she would help him with the b***h of a computer he was dealing with now.
He was going to reply to her question about help by asking for an advil, but by the way she carried on, it was clear she was talking to the computer and wasn't necessarily interested in his mental or physical health in any way. Just what he needed, another woman only helping him because it was her job to do so. Didn't people ever care anymore. Does no one feel compelled to find out about a fellow human beings day? The short answer is no, and he learned that the hard way over and over again.
"Kiyoki Robinson" he said, adjusting his glasses, no way he was giving another person his nickname after the past month's events "Reporter for the messenger, but I have a Masters in Mechanical Engineering from LRU." He nodded his head in the direction of the computer that was still booting up, "Funny though, I've never had luck with computers, despite my dad having a Masters in Software and Mechanical Engineering. Guess I'm more of a Mac. Or Linux. Or any OS that isn't Windows." Mainstream fan-girl meet hipster non-conformist to the core.

"Well for a few reasons actually, " he said, rubbing the back of his head, a habit he was doing more and more these days, "one reason is, I was falsely accused of illegally using the papers funds, so I was demoted." And he wasn't lying. He was falsely accused, because who in their right mind would use the papers resources to fight crime. This was by far one of the best papers in the country and they would have found out eventually. He gingerly took the pills from her hand and threw his head back to swallow them down without water. "Thanks," he said with a smirk on his face, plowing on with his story "second reason, I figure I might come back to school sooner or later so I needed to talk to the admissions officer." The computer finally rebooted up and he immediately went to hack into police records, despite the fan girl in the seat next to him. "And lastly, the paper didn't assign me to a murder case, so if they saw what I am doing now, they might have reassigned me to an even worse story. "
Gah. He ran into a roadblock on his search for justice when he discovered a new hacking agent in the police software. Luckily he had little miss fast fingers with him. "Would you mind?" he asked, probably asking to much, seeing as what he was doing was highly illegal and he had just met the woman.

"Well thats one reason." Close was a huge minimization. Try more in the family of sharing nearly the same DNA. "The other reason is the fact that it isn't a closed case, they still haven't found the killers. I hate that." Cops are so dumb sometimes, and in retrospect, their stupidity motivated half the things he did. He hacked into police files because they were to dumb to catch criminals, he caught criminals and fought crime because they were to stupid to find them themselves, he stole and ordered hits on people because he knew he wouldn't be caught, and he hired people to do good in the community because cops simply were not nearly skilled enough to do it themselves. Not that it was all their fault, pesky laws and such were constantly holding them back, but that means its gotta change somewhere along the line, and last time he checked, Smith wasn't in the law making, but more the law breaking, business.
"As a reporter, a good mystery is always great, so figuring out this one will not only give me closure, but will also help me hone my skills." It felt good to talk casually as he worked, it made him feel like he was back at home, or still in college. "Not that they would ever accept the article, conflict of interest and all that." Those pesky laws again, prohibiting him from doing what he did best.
