Chapter 21: Fools

Ryu's P.O.V

We are in shock at what the staff said, a private talk with Don. Diego? does he even know us? is he aware that this is not our real identity?

I just let out a sigh as Mika finishes her food and is now ready to go.

I looked at her with a worried face...what if it's a trap? what if we are going to be guided to a lion's den? a lot of what if's are running inside my head.

"This way Mr. and Mrs. Ramirez, the Don is waiting for you"

The staff pointed at a hallway that has a door at the end of it, as we walk silently to the hallway, I can't stop thinking about why would he invite us...

The staff knocked on the door three times until we hear a 'Come In' word coming from a deep voice inside the room.

As we entered the room, a smiling old man greeted us with a warm hug that Mika and I were surprised by the sudden action of our enemy.

"I'm glad both of you came to the party, come, have a seat" Shock as we felt but remain calm and smile at the old man.

"Uhm what's the problem, Don. Diego? why with a sudden call and a private conversation?" Mika asked and trying not to sound that curious as possible and tried to act concern.

"There is no problem Cheska, but I just want you to inform that the both of you...." he paused for a minute preparing a glass of wine for the three of us.

I can't help myself but think that it's already game over...that we are doomed until..."I want you both to be part of the exclusive team of Optical Illusions" He stated with a serious tone looking at us, shock was now evident on our faces as we did not expect that.

"Uhm...pardon Don. Diego?" I asked still not believing what I have heard.

"Yes Cloud, you heard it right...I want both of you to be part of the exclusive team of Optical Illusion meaning, you will also have access to our private organization...which is The Eye"

I can't believe what I am hearing right now, if we take this opportunity, we can be spies inside their organization and sabotage them.

"That's great Don. Diego, we are in great pleasure to accept your offer right love?" Mika accepted it immediately and I quickly agreed, both of us are now thinking the same thing.

"Great, now I will be expecting your presence tomorrow night at the grand convention for the launching of our new set of Eye Glasses for Optical Illusions"

The Don reminded us and just gave him a nod and a smile, after that, we came back to the party area and just observe and talked for a bit, Mika and I have the same thoughts making us smirk and just feel pity because of how easily they can be manipulated...then we just enjoyed for a bit.

Later on, our cellphones are back but we aren't able to text and inform the HQ about what happened because of the still active mother box.

After a few more hours, we headed back to our HQ and talked about the offer...

???? P.O.V

"Did they take the bait?"

"Yes President, they did"

"Good now let's make them feel comfortable and we will proceed to the next step"

"Yes president, looks like they fall into the trap we have set"

"tss so much for being an agent of Descendants of the Sun haha fools"

Both of us laughed as we celebrate the success of our first plan against them, as much as I wanna show myself to the crowd but I can't....she will recognize me in just a single glance, I can still use her to know who is the next in line empress of their organization.

I still need Mika to know who are the next high ranking officials of Descendants Of The Sun.....

Mika's P.O.V

Now we are back at our headquarters and we have told the board about what happened at the party and all of us laughed at how pathetic they are.

"So are they convinced that you guys aren't aware that you two already know about the TRAP they tried to pull on you?"

Mr. Chair asked still can't believe. "Hahaha yes Mr. Chair, I heard them talking with a very familiar voice but I can't remember who" I replied recalling what has happened back there, although I didn't hear the entire conversation but still manage to catch the important ones.

It's already 2 am when I got home and just quickly removed my make up and change into my pajamas and sleep for at least 4 hours.

I was in a deep slumber when my alarm clock woke me up, it's already 6:30 am...i quickly got up and go to the shower then wear my uniform and eat my breakfast.

by the time I arrived at school. it's already 7:45 pm...rushing through the hallway, I bumped into Kalix.

"Oh My God I'm so sorry, I was in a rush and didn't see you there" I immediately apologize "Hey it's okay...how did the mission go?" he smiled.

"Mmm it went well...I'm gonna tell you later okay? hehe I need to get to class now"

"Hahaha okay sure...see later"

After that, I just smiled at him and rushed to the science area where our classroom is, and luckily the teacher hasn't arrived yet, I had a talk with Jaijai and the others to spend the free remaining time.

After about 10 minutes classes started and everyone is back in their respective seats.

I wasn't paying attention to the lesson, I can't get my mind off what happened last night.

This is a big advantage for us, sooner or later we will finally know who is the biggest threat for us, the one who will make everyone scream and beg and turning this city into a bloody place and I can't let that happen, not when I'm alive because I am the next empress, protector of everyone...
