Henry Schneider was waiting for Gates inside his room. He was exactly acting the way Schneider wanted him to. He just needed the codes…
“So you are still here? I have debriefed the plan to the general.”
“Without even consulting me?”
Gates sighed, “I don’t need to ask you about my responsibilities, for God’s sake.”
Schneider paused for a moment, “So, what’s your brilliant plan?”
“We wait for the scientists to reach safe haven. Then we attack with the SWAT team. Kill all the damn bastards we find inside.”
“That’s what your problem is, Gates. You feel that every problem has this pathetic solution. What will the SWAT do? They can’t combat people who have an arsenal of guns which literally shock you to death.”
“So what should I do? Wait for them to get cancer? I just can’t stand here and watch in silence while they infiltrate the whole defense of USA. What other option do I have? ”
Schneider took a crucial moment of silence, “Well, there is always the atomic bomb.”
Gates went speechless. He couldn't get the exact words to describe that idea. After a few moments, he got his speech back, “ARE YOU INSANE? Do you realize that 10 towns are close-by? The whole district is in danger, JAGUAR IS IN DANGER.”
“Look at the big picture, Gates. How many people know that a laboratory exists near that area? You can easily relocate those people. Just give a false alarm… tornado or something. Then give a damn nuke to those *************. You can do that. Then a send team to seal off the area; absorb all the radiations; Clear the area and you’re done”
“What about Jaguar?”
“I can HACK into it. Just give me the codes to blue gene.”
“NEVER”, Gates would never give someone something as precious as the password codes to Blue Gene.
“Listen, you send some damn team, and lose half the members in the fight, which has a 30% success rate. With a nuke attack, its 100% sure; they all will be minced meat. We have a day, just clear the area, and go full out. And about Jaguar, I know you are in love with that supercomputer; to save that we need the help of another supercomputer. Blue Gene is capable of hacking into Jaguar. We transfer all the files, set up temporary workstations and Blue Gene will be as fast as Jaguar. If you help, I might actually save Jaguar. Just go for it, tiger.”
Gates thought for a while. Then, “ OK, but you will NOT get the codes. I will come with you.”
After a pause, “Agreed”.
Gates went to inform the meteorology department about a tornado strike in Tennessee. While he was preparing for the nuclear attack, Henry Seinfeld Schneider smiled inwardly. He was finally going to get access to Blue Gene.

Peter was walking down the aisle with Joshua, heading for Cray Jaguar. He was still unable to say anything; gaping at the person who he thought died six months ago. How was it possible? He wanted answers, and he wanted it right now!
Joshua sensed his curiosity and tried to explain the whole matter, “I'm really sorry, P. It was part of the act. Collingwood told me about Schneider, and his devious plan. So we decided that it was best for me to feign death. He was almost about to know that I’m a time sequencer, and I possibly couldn’t give away that position, so there. I hope you understand.”
“No, I don’t. I didn’t understand a single effing thing. First of all, who is this Blackadder or Schneider? What did he want from me? Why did he mistake me for you? AND WHO THE HELL IS A TIME SEQUENCER?!”
“Boy, didn’t Collingwood explain you time sequences?”
“That’s the only thing he did.”
“Oh boy, there’s a lot of explaining to do. We better go there.” saying that he grabbed hold of peter, and peter suddenly felt as if he was made to sit on a totally gruesome roller coaster, with no start or end. Surprisingly, this experience lasted only for 1 second. When he opened his eyes, he saw the whole team staring at him.

Schneider was waiting for Gates; he was still working on the mass evacuation plan in Tennessee. It had been almost an hour. Schneider was thinking about his next move. After Gates gives in the code, he will no longer be needed; a simple piece of waste.
“Sorry for being late, let’s go.”
“About freaking time, what took you so long?”
“Sending a message to the president. Apparently, he was busy. Some sort of urgent meeting.”
Schneider felt silent. Ever since he started co-operating with Gates, Collingwood was always one step ahead of him. It was widely known that Gates was the President’s personal puppy; he would blabber everything in front of him, what if…
“Here we are; presenting before you- Blue Gene.”
Schneider was awestruck. All the answers to his questions were sealed inside this computer. It was a majestic beauty. He was able to see all the workstations through the glass panel. he couldn't resist the temptation.But he had to wait. He had to be patient.
“Only one server is limited to the user”, Gates said, pointing towards a mainframe desktop situated at the extreme right corner.
While they were walking, Schneider was trying to diverge Gates’ mind from the current matter.
“Tell me Gates. Why is Pentagon still going on with Blue Gene? No development on it at all.”
Gates chuckled. “We always give hoax information about Pentagon. Blue Gene is currently the fastest computer in the world. The speed is nearly a petaFLOP. Most of the technological resources are hell bent on making Blue Gene faster and more efficient. We are successfully able to maneuver automated rockets thanks to Blue Gene. We can hack into any mini-computer in seconds. Pentagon even has the capabilities to develop a fully operational human clone. But we just have to limit our usage, because we believe that China is closely monitoring our moves. If they get to know, then..." he sighed "anyways, here we are.”
Gates typed in the codes for running Blue Gene manually. When he finished typing the 16-digit code, he turned towards Schneider,a crack sound from out of nowhere, and then world around him turned numb and black…

Blogging Harihar Kaka
p.s. I am NOT copying Dan Bergstein, he’s just my inspiration
p.p.s. I will be making assumptions before reading that part of the story, so keep a track on the scores
This mega-20 page ‘’short story’’ is written by a certain guy named ‘’mithileshwar’’. -.-
Can someone please explain it to me why don’t the parents of future-poets-and-writers give a proper name, like Sachin or Rahul or Ramu or Ram? Seriously, we will start treating them like fellow human beings and not aliens from Mars or Venus. For the sake of it, we’ll call him ‘’MTV’’.
PAGE 1/20 (it depends upon the story; I assume it’s going to get boring so page by page)
The story starts with the writer visiting Harihar Kaka. In case you haven’t noticed, he is the main character of the novel, and my assumption is he will go through a lot of troubles, while MTV enjoys the view in the background. Please remember this line; I don’t the exact reason but just in case. Let us call him kaka… no, I don’t want to insult the footballer …yes, haka… I know that’s lame, but after all he’s the protagonist (I assume he will act like a true antagonist).
MTV also visited him the day before… I seriously doubt their relationship (how old is haka? How old is MTV? Is he gay?). He didn’t speak anything at all (this solidifies my assumption). But the next lines throw my assumption in the dustbin.
Me:0; MTV: 1…grrrr…
He talks about how deep has haka fallen in problems, like tatanic drowing and captain yelling ‘’MAY-DAY MAY-DAY’’ but doesn’t realize that he hasn’t switched the radio on. Same way haka can’t do about it…duh, just switch the radio on, dude (I don’t know what has to do with haka’s life but still worth a try, I assume, and I know, that it is set during the period of r.d. burman and mohammad rafi, so listen to their music, or else assumption no.5 coming up; he’s either poor or stingy)
Me:1(I’m told you from before, he has more problems than hell can offer); MTV: 1
Then MTV gets all nausea and unfortunately tells us that he and haka were damn good friends right from the day MTV came to this planet. He summarizes his love/respect/stupidity for haka into TWO POINTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this breaks my assumption that the whole 20 pages were filled about his love for haka, and how he secretly showed MTV villages divas and how both happily went to strip clubs, where haka fell in for a girl and she dumped him; hence the sadness.
Me:2; MTV: 2
So the two points are:-1. Haka lives in MTV’s neighborhood :\
2. He used to loved MTV a lot (I’m telling you, dark motives)
He ALSO tells us when he reached adulthood, haka became his bff…that ruins his chance of having a sexy girlfriend, and that’s why he became a writer.
SNAP
Back to reality, he’s getting paranoid about haka’s current state, who has bed-ridden himselfand my assumption has come true. He wants to be like MJ, and sleep with small children. But mr. haka, you are PWNED. The story’s false :P. with this I can safely say he’s the antagonist
Me:3 ; MTV: 2
No. of predictions-7
Prediction:
MTV is getting paranoid about haka and talks about it
MTV:WHY THE HELL DON’T YOU GET UP FROM YOUR BED?
HAKA: …
MTV: LOOK, YOU WET YOUR DHOTI AGAIN
HAKA: …
MTV: AND PLEASE BRUSH YOUR TEETH
HAKA: …
MTV: AND CAN YOU SHAVE YOUR CHEST?
HAKA: …
MTV: WHY THE HELL ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?
HAKA: …
MTV: NO, NO, STOP DON’T ITS HURTING, NO, DON’T RAPE ME, YOU, AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Robert Gates never heard something more intriguing in his life. It was like some short story of Isaac Asimov playing out in real life. Time sequences? What the hell was that? The more he thought about it, the more confusing it became. So the best thing was, SEE the whole story itself
"Sir, the President has come to see you.’’
"Oh good, good, bring him inside.’’
“Hello Gates, what seems to be the problem?”
“President Obama, it is a very serious problem. Jaguar is in danger. I have called all the scientists from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. They will be in Pentagon in about a day. Then I’ve… decided to attack the laboratory.”
All the president did was laugh. After all, Gates decided to take the matter in his own hands. He was just informing the president, that’s all.
“Sir, it is very serious. My informant tells me of a great threat to our nation. We need to combat it as soon as possible.”
“Slow down there Gates. First of all tell me, what is this great threat you are talking about? Terrorists, I don’t think so. Otherwise the scientists would surely be held captive. Destructive virus, you don’t need military personals, but expert computer engineers and code-breakers.”
“Sir, I respect the fact that you require knowledge about this step pentagon is about to take, but it is too complicated. I assure you that no harm would come to the Jaguar.”
“Gates, I never doubted your ability, but as the President of the United States of America, I demand information about this matter”
Gates sighed,“Ok boss, but don’t tell me it’s all confusing. I still haven’t got it myself…. Here goes, it is all regarding time and something called time sequences. ”
Barack Obama squirmed a bit. He DID know what Gates was talking about.

Peter was walking through the advanced laboratory, following Collingwood. He still didn’t know what was happening. But all he knew was that he could now finally see, and this was no dream.
“First of all, let me introduce to you my team. This is John Donovan, brilliant in mathematics.’’ A talk boy with a French goatee came up to him and shook hands.
"’Kelly Patterson, an expert in medicine. She was the one who got your leg in working condition, and also the eyes.’’ A red-haired girl with a height as same as peter’s came and him and shook hands, “Hi Peter, How are you feeling now?’’ “Er…fine. Thanks a lot.” “No problem”. This was how the first conversation between Peter and a girl went. It was the first time a girl came up to him, and it went surprisingly pleasing for him.
“The Todd twins…Thomas and Jerome. They are the boys who made your cyborg eyes, and as well as other… gadgets.’’. The brothers looked…abnormal. They had a really small head, accompanied by long hands and legs. "Please Collingwood… call them weapons.’’they protested playfully and Peter could’ve sworn that Collingwood gave them a venomous look, which instantly took the smile out of their faces.
"These were my past students, who graduated a few years ago. You’ll meet the fifth member afterwards. Now before you fire away your questions, I will you tell the general idea. You remember your article ‘Time Frames and their Concept’?’’
Obviously Peter knew his award-winning article on his vague imaginary concept of time frames. All he did was nod.
“Can you explain the general idea of it?”
“Well… it’s like this. Time is divided into each ‘time frame’. Each time frame occupies only… 1/ππ second, which many of us refer to as a ‘moment’, this 1/ ππ second is called as the ‘time constant’. Every time constant, we move from one time frame to another consecutive time frame, which is… scripted, unless some external force acts on it. When it happens, some major catastrophe happens, which need not be in that particular time frame. Time frames never move, and if even one of them moves, it can actually result in people being in different places at the SAME TIME! A time catastrophe need not be in a time frame coming after the incident time frame; it can occur before the incident time frame, it means a time catastrophe can affect either past or future…”
“So, we are basically in the future, past and as well as the present?’’ Collingwood interrupted.
“Well, yes. It is possible we can see our future selves as well our past can come to meet their future, possibly us- depends on which time frame they get. So as I was saying, a time catastrophe can affect either past or future. We can also teleport from one time frame to another consecutive time frame, with a change of location. This whole thing is called a time sequence; everything moving from one time frame to the next, in a systematic movement, which I think is the basis of harmony.”
After Peter finished, he noticed their expressions for the first time since he started talking about ‘time sequences’. Except Collingwood, every person had his mouth open in disbelief. Then Thomas bowed down as said “God bless Newton. Every action has a reaction. It all makes sense.’’
“So this is the guy you were waiting for’’, John remarked. Kelly just beamed at him. Peter couldn’t guess what they were talking about. Apparently, Collingwood decided to continue the guessing game.
“Well, let us expand your theory a bit. You said that time is divided into frames, and every time constant we switch from one frame to another. Suppose a person misses a switch. What happens then?”
“If this happens, but obviously the sequence collapses.”
“Let me make this clear, universal processes, including time sequence, are not perfect. A ‘switch miss’ is the most common error. And it results in… deja vu”
“Hmm. Repeated incidents in a short interval of time; that makes sense. But what if that person just gets stuck in that time frame?”
“There has been no such recorded evidence. But I believe it would lead to death.” John mentioned. He and Collingwood were doing the explaining part. Rest all were just listening.
“How so?”
“In an exclusive time frame, life processes of our body stops. If heart-beat or breathing stops, the man dies. ”
“So, if a person does get stuck in a time frame, do other people notice it. ”
“Again, we have no recorded evidence to prove it. But a person being stuck for more than 1 second is very rare. A possibility of 10 ^-100.”
“You said that time frame doesn’t move, so how do we shift from one time frame to another?” Collingwood resumed.
Peter thought for a while. “It becomes apparent that we move.”
“But we are stuck in one place. If I sit, then does that mean I am not switching time frames? Obviously not. It so happens that time frames CAN move. But apparent distance has to be same. Sometimes it so happens that time flies or it moves slowly. Well, this happens because the apparent distance between frames decrease or increase as in the respective cases. Time frames have a minute magnetic field around them, which keeps on fluctuating. This prevents over-lapping of time frames”
“Professor, can we ‘see’ time sequence”
“peter, have you heard about 10th dimension.”
“A hypothetical idea about all the possibilities contained in one point”
“Yet, do you think, that 10th dimension is just a point?” All the others were quiet. It seemed that Collingwood was hitting practicality to its limit.
Peter went on, “of course not, we are imagining it to be a point.”
“Bingo, you hit it. All this idea about time sequence is truly hypothetical. We are imagining it to be a an ongoing film in which each frame of the movie roll is a time frame. It works systematically, it brings harmony. But we here are bent upon this topic, this theory, even when I myself question it. Why so? It is because we have experienced and reasoned something which none else was able to do. That brings upon our main topic- the reason why we are here, the reason for you being attacked and all other.”
“Hold on, we STILL haven’t gone through our main point of discussion?”
“It is important for you to understand this before I could explain you any further. Now…”, but there were sounds of footsteps coming towards them; as if someone was running.
“Sorry I’m late. Got Collingwood’s message came here as soon as possible. I have checked the 16th and 17th century but…. Hey peter, good to see you man. Thank God you can see again”, saying that Joshua Matthews hugged his shocked-and-surprised best friend.

THE TIME SEQUENCERS - PART 2
Colorado Technical University- Kansas City
0030GMT 1830 local- 3/3/2010
Peter was carefully climbing the steps; he didn’t want to fall down. No one except Collingwood and Joshua knew he was blind. It was difficult in the beginning, getting a grasp of the university surroundings. He needed to make his hearing strong and effective. Surprisingly, just after 1 week, he was able to navigate through the campus easily. But outside campus, he was totally blind. Joshua went with him whenever he wanted to go to the city. One day, all because of his folly and stupidness, Joshua had to lose his life…
Peter bumped into his dormitory door. He took out his keys and opened the door for possibly the last time. He hadn’t even stepped inside the room when someone dragged him forcefully into the room and choke slammed him onto the table.
‘’Well, well, well. What do we have here? A sitting duck…hahahahahahahaha, I didn’t expect you to be so easy.’’
‘’Who the hell are you? What do you want from me?’’
‘’You see, I like to be unique… different from others. That’s why when I felt that you were just like me, I couldn't resist. I had to meet you, to see how you would fare in a battle against me. But now, I'm really amused. You…of all the people are blind. I just want to know Peter, how are you able to…you know…lead a normal life, how are you able to repress the feeling of… teleportation, travelling through time, changing the past, looking onto the future. How many times have you done that? ...TELL ME!!!’’
‘’You are a retarded madman. What the hell do you want? Teleportation… you gone crazy or what? ‘’
‘’so you wanna play, huh? So be it’’’, saying that he threw Peter. Peter landed on his study table, which broke and a splinter pierced his left hand. He screamed in pain. Meanwhile, Blackadder switched on the lights. Then he saw Peter’s face for the first time, and never was more shocked in his life when he saw Peter’s face. It wasn’t the same person.
‘’Who...who the hell are you? TELL ME NOW’’
‘’Peter Hathaway…u only called me so.’’
‘’YOU LIE!!! TELL ME WHO YOU ARE OR ELSE…’’
‘’ I TOLD YA…I'M PETER HATHWAY, GO ASK ANYONE’’
Blackadder couldn’t believe it. How could this happen? Where did this go wrong? Who the hell was able to confound him? He watched this boy for one year, and now… it’s all in vain. But then who the hell is that boy whose photo he has? The boy who was the only one who could match his strength.
He took a photo out of his pocket and asked Peter, ‘’who the hell is he then? TELL ME NOW’’
''I can't see dammit.''
''He is dark, and has curly hair. you know him don't you..."
Peter almost lost consciousness. there was only one dark coloured person he knew. ‘’he’s Joshua Matthews. He died 6 months ago.’’
‘’Preposterous. He can’t die. A time sequencer can’t die. YOU’RE LYING.’’
A cold voice sprang out, ‘’No, he’s not’’. Then there was a sound resembling thunder, and Peter lost consciousness.

Gates never so walked as he had that hour. He was desperately waiting for Blackadder to come. He knew Blackadder would be easily able to catch the boy. He needed to regain order of the matter as soon as possible.
‘’Who the f*** did you talk to about this matter?’’. Again Gates startled
‘’No one at all… what happened? It’s been an hour, and you come all bruised and battered. What happened?’’
‘’Then who hell ambushed me in the campus?’’
‘’What are you talking about? Why would I send someone to kill you?’’
Blackadder suddenly felt quiet. He needed to think. Gates went on jabbering ‘’You went after the wrong guy. The guy we are looking for is dead. He died…’’
‘’6 months ago... I need to talk to you about something. Something about which I should’ve talked one year ago.’’
‘’What is it about?’’
‘’The article by the Hathaway boy’’

‘’Get up Peter, get up’’
‘’Ow, ow, ow! My legs hurting a lot. What happened?’’
‘’’Splinter pierced your leg… you need special attendance. Your bone marrow is exposed.’’
Peter was sure that nothing could stop him from dying. He could finally meet Joshua…apologize to him, thanking him for everything. Suddenly he heard noises going around. The air was colder. The ground he was lying on became hard.
‘’Oh my God!!! Who did this to him?’’
‘’ Schneider, now he knows who to look for’’
‘’I told ya! Double guard this boy, now we all are in deep trouble.’’
‘’No we are not. This was supposed to happen. It was inevitable.’’
‘’We need to operate on his leg quickly… there isn’t much time’’
‘’While you do that, give him a pair of ….’’ But Peter could hear no more. He knew he was imagining all this stuff. He was going to heaven…was he? He prayed frantically to God to let him go to heaven and meet his mother, father and Joshua.

Peter opened his eyes. He could finally see! And he was in heaven. Everything was white. And he saw the face of an Angel. No one else could be so pure and white.
‘’Hello peter. I am guessing that you are fine.’’ He got a shock of his life. The voice… it was Collingwood!
‘’Are you in heaven with me?’’ was all he could utter. The creature in front of him laughed, and he knew he was on earth. Collingwood would laugh like this only when something was wrong.
‘’What’s wrong, professor?’’
‘’First: time is exact midnight. Today is 5th of April 2010. And no, you were not unconscious for 1 whole day. In fact you have travelled 1 day further.’’
‘’Wait a sec….what do you mean?’’
‘’Haha…peter, we are wating for a second for the last 1 year in this this laboratory. No movement in time at all. Time basically stopped.’’
Peter was feeling dizzy. Travelled 1 day further…no movement in time…What the hell is happening to him?
0030GMT 1830 local- 3/3/2010
Peter was carefully climbing the steps; he didn’t want to fall down. No one except Collingwood and Joshua knew he was blind. It was difficult in the beginning, getting a grasp of the university surroundings. He needed to make his hearing strong and effective. Surprisingly, just after 1 week, he was able to navigate through the campus easily. But outside campus, he was totally blind. Joshua went with him whenever he wanted to go to the city. One day, all because of his folly and stupidness, Joshua had to lose his life…
Peter bumped into his dormitory door. He took out his keys and opened the door for possibly the last time. He hadn’t even stepped inside the room when someone dragged him forcefully into the room and choke slammed him onto the table.
‘’Well, well, well. What do we have here? A sitting duck…hahahahahahahaha, I didn’t expect you to be so easy.’’
‘’Who the hell are you? What do you want from me?’’
‘’You see, I like to be unique… different from others. That’s why when I felt that you were just like me, I couldn't resist. I had to meet you, to see how you would fare in a battle against me. But now, I'm really amused. You…of all the people are blind. I just want to know Peter, how are you able to…you know…lead a normal life, how are you able to repress the feeling of… teleportation, travelling through time, changing the past, looking onto the future. How many times have you done that? ...TELL ME!!!’’
‘’You are a retarded madman. What the hell do you want? Teleportation… you gone crazy or what? ‘’
‘’so you wanna play, huh? So be it’’’, saying that he threw Peter. Peter landed on his study table, which broke and a splinter pierced his left hand. He screamed in pain. Meanwhile, Blackadder switched on the lights. Then he saw Peter’s face for the first time, and never was more shocked in his life when he saw Peter’s face. It wasn’t the same person.
‘’Who...who the hell are you? TELL ME NOW’’
‘’Peter Hathaway…u only called me so.’’
‘’YOU LIE!!! TELL ME WHO YOU ARE OR ELSE…’’
‘’ I TOLD YA…I'M PETER HATHWAY, GO ASK ANYONE’’

THE TIME SEQUENCERS- PART 1
Colorado Technical University- Kansas City
0000GMT 1800 local- 3/3/2010
Peter Hathaway was waiting for his meeting with the warden-in-charge. As he strolled around the corridor, he wondered what the reason could be for this meeting. Suddenly he heard a female voice calling his name. Her tone was serious- not a good sign at all. He made his way towards the room.
Pentagon
0000GMT 1900 local-3/3/2010
US SecDef Robert Gates looked upon the proceedings of the working in pentagon. He savoured every minute he stayed in this massive stronghold. It was his responsibility to secure and defend not only his only his country, but its allied countries too.
‘’Had fun walking around?’’, a voice suddenly crept beside him. Gates startled.
‘’For Pete’s sake can you make a less-terrifying entrance, when you come to office.’’, saying that he went to his office, only to find Blackadder sitting comfortably on his chair.
‘’You know if someone else sits like this in Pentagon, I would’ve made sure that he isn’t in a state to sit at all.’’
‘’Keep talking, Gates. And you’ll be the president.’’
‘’I have no interest at all to access such control. I have no intention of being one of most powerful man in this world.’’
‘’But you are SecDef, you know. How many people have direct control over weapons of mass-destruction, and the access to Blue Gene.’’
Gates sighed. The only reason he tolerated this maniac because he had information about the greatest threat posing mankind
‘’Whatever you’ve got, cough up, because I have work to do’’
‘’As if I’m nothing to do rather than squat in your stinking chair…I told the warden, to expel the boy. We will get him in no time at all.’’
‘’Tell me, Blackadder, if you could just kidnap the boy, why wait for him to get expelled.’’
‘’Go drink something to open your mind. If he still remains a student while I snatch him, he will be in the records. People would ask about him. I don’t want anything ruining this part; I have no urgency in success. And I got some news for you; the boy is blind’’, with that he left as soon as Gate’s back was turned.
He couldn’t believe it. How could a potential threat be handicapped?
Colorado Technical University- Kansas City
0000GMT 1800 local- 3/3/2010
‘’Good evening Mr. Hathaway. I doubt you would know the reason for your visit. Please have a seat.’’
Peter heard another man speak, ‘’Hello peter’’
Professor Collingwood, a master of computer science, was peter’s favorite person in the campus. He had nothing to fear as long as he was present.
‘’Good evening warden’’
‘’How are your studies going?’’
‘’fine’’
‘’And how well do you fare in in computer science? I heard you are a marvel at it’’
I’M SCREWED, peter thought. He knew what the warden was talking about. There was nothing he could do about it. Even Collingwood, who sat silently, accepted this fact. The warden, however was busy looking a register filled with papers.
‘’Ah, here we have it. I have 20 complaints about you, all of them have the same reason- that you
hacked into their facebook or yahoo, gmail and hotmail accounts. This is totally unacceptable.’’
‘’But sir I just did it for fun, it was nothing like I was planning a mass-murder campaign or anything’’
‘’Yes, you even hacked into our mathematics professor and changed last week’s test grades for fun. Mr. Hathaway, this is totally unacceptable in this university.’’
‘’But sir, my classmates pressurized me into this. They all got bad grades.’’
‘’Today your classmates pressurize you; tomorrow some terrorist might pressurize you into hacking into our country’s defense system. I'm sorry Mr. Hathaway. I have consulted the board of directors and it is decided that you are…rusticated from the Colorado Technical University. My decision is final and irrevocable. We cannot risk giving you further education. Please leave and pack all your accessories.’’
.................
For peter the world was over. He knew arguing with the warden was like walking on the Niagara Falls. He left the room was about to exit the corridor, when he heard Prof. Collingwood calling
‘’Peter! Peter! Listen to me, look I tried everything in my power, but he just wouldn’t shift his stand. He feels you are some national threat. I had to stop him calling the national army. You know how over-reactive he is. Just wait for a 2 hours; I’ll try to reason out with the board. They just can’t let the school topper go away so easily.’’
‘’Forget it, professor. No one will listen to my plea. Even if they do, I’ll be considered an untouchable in this university. There’s no reason for me to stay here.’’
‘’But this is the only place you’ve got. If not here, then where else would you go?’’
‘’Maybe, Joshua’s parents could have some company’’
Joshua Matthews, Peter’s only friend in the university died 6 months ago in an accident which involved a speeding car. He was never able to fully register his best friend’s loss. Bright and talented, he always said that he was unique, and no mortal except Peter and Prof. Collingwood would understand him. Peter bade farewell to his favourite professor for the last time, then went back to his dormitory, stumbling across everything and everyone. After all, he was blind.

0045GMT 1945 local- 3/3/2010
Robert Gates had nothing to do. He thought of going to California to see Blue Gene. But something stopped him from doing so. So for curiosity’s sake, he went to his personal assistant
‘’Get me all the information you can get about this person called Peter Hathaway.’’
After some time, ‘’Sir, Hathaway is an ex-student of the Colorado Technical University. He received an award for the ‘’best article on science’’ last year on ‘’time sequences’’. But he was heavily indulged in hacking, so he was expelled.’’
‘’When was Hathaway expelled?’’
‘’It is very recent. Maybe today, or last night.’’
‘’Get me a printout of this’’, saying that he felt relieved. All was going according to plan. Blackadder would bring him to Pentagon. He would be questioned and then…
‘’Sir, here it is’’. Gates jaw dropped. This wasn’t the boy. It was the wrong photo. The boy in the picture was fair with straight hair. Blackadder showed him to be dark with curly hair. Something wasn’t right. He took out the picture Blackadder gave him from his drawer. ’’Scan this pic, and give me information about this boy’’
After 10 nerve-wracking minutes, ‘’Sir, the most probable profile is of Joshua Matthews. He was in the same university and year as Peter Hathaway. It was recorded that his IQ was above 200, but it was found to be a technical error and his actual IQ is around 120. He… he died 6 months in an accident.’’
‘’WHAT?’!!’’. Gates couldn’t believe what he just heard. It was a damn disastrous step. Gates should’ve been precautionary about it. He was lured into a false sense of relieve. Now the inevitable was happening; BLACKADDER WAS GOING AFTER THE WRONG PERSON!!!
this is my work first serious work ever. please feel free to notify me about any changes, or if it is getting boring (fingers crossed)
