Shelly.

"Hey dad can I come to your office?" A young, 9 year old girl comes to his bedroom as he works on his notebook. "You had told me a lot of stories about your workplace and yet despite promising me that I would eventually get to see your workplace, you still haven't let me in. It's already the December holidays, would you let me go and take a look just for a bit?"

"Shelly look, daddy is busy so I won't be able to let you in. I suggest you instead do your science." Her dad responded.

"But dad..." Just as she asked, her mom steps in carrying a cup of coffee. As she places the cup on the table, she tells him, "She is just a little child Darren, she won't do much harm..."

"But Clara..." Darren reluctantly said as he closes his notebook. He thinks to himself silently for a moment before he finally decides to allow her to go to Shelly's delight.

As he and Shelly got out from their car after a long trip to a heavily guarded facility, Darren requests her to not touch anything which she agreed, entering the large building with the name ARDENT INDUSTRIES. Inside it was a large complex with a small atrium. The interior was boring with only the use of white, black and red and futuristic furniture that is somewhat cringy. He turns to his right, using a key card to access the facility. He was greeted by many security guards, constantly stating that he brought her for personal reasons and promised that he won't show her too much to the security guards' fears (They were tasked by the government to keep the program secret). Through the long corridors, he enters a large room, as large as the school hall in her primary school and possibly even larger due to how dark the room was. It was filled with all sorts of weird equipment with lots of piping and large cylinders leading throughout the room. As he flipped a switch on a wall, lights lit up to reveal stairs to the next floor, with a tap of his key card, he enters a room filled with furniture from a normal office before settling down in presumably his own office after several minutes of walking.

With his computer and a black 1MDB thumb drive which he brought out from his pocket, he quickly start up the computer using the code : H31978E

She stares at the code his dad had entered wondering with she should remember the codes and decides to remember it since the naive girl she was back then worried that he would forget the codes. And tries to remember even more of them when he enters the main site, typing in numerous codes. He fiddled with the computer, before plugging out the thumb drive and closing the computer. As he said: "Let's go home, Shelly"

"Shelly"

"Shelly"

"Shelly"

"Shelly wake up"

She wonders why it continued before she realized it's her friend calling out to her. She opens her eyes, seeing her friend staring at her, concerned if she is fine. "Shelly you alright? You looked extremely tired." Her friend, Zoe asked in concern. "I'm ok Zoe." Shelly replies. Zoe was a female with short hair and unlike Shelly, she is short (Sometimes Shelly had to come in to help her since she is constantly teased by the boys) and isn't into sports. She is a fanatic of dresses and often posts herself doing poses on Instagram (Despite both Shelly's and her parents objections). She also hates sports and loves art. "Look maybe is because stay up late at night to do homework." Shelly said. "Hey don't stress yourself out too much, anyway it is almost time for your community service." Zoe reminded her as she sighed, placing her bag in class as they parted ways.

After they returned from the old folks home, she went to take her bag just as she received a message from her mom stating 5 hours ago. "Sorry Shelly, note that you would have to cook dinner yourself. Your father and I are going to a private celebration and would return late at night. So do your homework before you go to bed alright sweetheart." She felt a little happier. Back when she was a child, her parents forced her to go for several activities and tuitions, hoping that she would get better grades. This free time would let her not think about anything else. As she walked home she doesn't realize a white slime blob leaked from her bag and into the sewers. It travels into the piping of her parents house. He peeks through a gap in the floor, seeing her going into her bedroom before coming out with a new pair of clothes as she went into the bathroom. It sneaks down to the living room where it pressed the remote control showing off the latest news.

" Good evening everyone, I'm your host Jaclyn and this is the latest news. Earlier today, famed scientists Darren and Clara Koh were killed in a well planned attack during a private company celebration. Police has yet to find out who murdered them along with their intentions, but is seeking witnesses who could identify these men in this picture." The news anchor announced as it stared at the picture, seeing three masked men wearing black suits carrying duffel bags. It quickly slid back into the gap, quickly sliding back up with haste to the bathroom Shelly was at.

Shelly has wondered what she would want to do with this free time. She thinks of whether she should play on her League of Legends account to let off steam or do some exercises to improve her fitness as she listened to Monster from EXO. She sat down in the bathtub as the water trickle down her hair and onto her skin as she decides on her next move. Suddenly she realized the 'water' is starting to rise, she tries to tug free but is unable to do so as the 'water' became murky. The slime then started forming together to form a white sleek looking male. It looks as though he has been through the gym several times and could go one on two with Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee at the same time without breaking a sweat. He stood at seven foot tall as he showed off his disgusting human parts and looked almost human if not for his white colored facial features and skin along with his sleekness. It tries to make contact by saying, "Hi my name is Hektor..." but before he could say anything else, she starts screaming, swearing as she flayed around the slimy bathtub. He then settle down, turning half of this body along with his disgusting body parts back into slime as he use his arms to hold her in place, trying to calm her down.

"Look Shelly I know that you may think I'm weird and that I'm a pervert, but I can assure you that I'm not here for that. Also your life is at stake. The authorities has killed your parents and are coming for you." As Shelly finally settled down, still at an unease with a white entity in front of him, she questions him stating if that is even true ( She hates fake news) . He then took her phone from the basin and surfs the net, showing her actual news footage from many news channels. As she watches the footage, her face grows to that of utter horror as she cried bitterly. "Look there isn't any time to cry despite your parents deaths. They are coming for you." Hektor persuades Shelly as she agreed to do so, rubbing off her tears, wearing her white tank top and her yoga pants as she dried herself of her tears.

Hektor then comes close by, slithering onto her body, informing her of the extra layer of protection she would get along his existence in her brain. She reluctantly agrees, before screaming in pain as Hektor slithered into her skin, clothes and into her body before it was over. She opens her eyes to see the bathroom clean of slime. She stands up to see a even stronger woman in the mirror. Her figure looked even better than before. Her hair is now longer with a larger bust and hip, but is compensated with more muscle on her shoulders and legs. She was somewhat impressed of herself as Hektor informs her to quickly get her stuff and leave. "As nice as I look now, why are they silencing me just like my parents?" She gets out of the bathroom, taking her bag and wallet along with her green jacket and cap hung on the wall in her bedroom as she asked Hektor.

"Do you still remember if you went to your dad's office?" She nods as she heads downstairs. Listening to what he said. "They want to silence you next because they feel you know to much."

"About what?" Shelly asks as she place a lighter,matchsticks and cups of noodles into her bag.

"No time to explain. You got 20 seconds." Hektor warns as she hear sirens nearby. She quickly runs towards the kitchen door, busting through it as she runs through the garden, slipping through the fence and onto an alleyway. Just then, she hears men shouting, saying to search the whole house. She watches as she runs through the alleyway. "Where do go now" Shelly asks Hektor as she heads down the long alleyway. "Follow me" Hektor told Shelly as he directed her to another alleyway.
