A Troubled Mind's Chronicle - Part 8: The Prodigies

- It's LIBs...
She whispered in my ear so nobody would hear
- LIBs?
- Yeah.. the private investigator they hired.. LIBs.. don't you know them??
The name didn't rang a bell.. LIBs?? what a stupid name, but they were right, their guesses were right
- No... I have no idea what you're talking about..
We went outside, as she was waiting the bus to come she started talking about this group
- LIBs stands out for Lana, Balthazar and Irvine.. the group was fundated by Lana Stewart, Irvine Smith, Balthazar Ramirez and Shane O' Connor back in 1920. They were one of the most important investigation agencies along with SeeD. When the Cold War started, SeeD members were hunted across the planet and brought down by this investigation group, according to the facts that they were helping Japan so they could find a way to enter the States. Among the SeeD members, one of the most important members was "Stealth", wich you surely know..
Stealth??? again, that name didn't rang a bell..
- ... So, you don't know? Stealth was the one in charge of leading the forces whenever they found out something.. Say that they found out that a group of people were the ones traficating drugs.. so Stealth was the one leading the whole operation, she had the power to do whatever she wanted with the police, FBI and Swat teams. The most outstanding thing about her was that she almost never needed the police force, she would do everything herself. She was a ghost, nobody could see her, nobody could even know she was there, until it was too late.. kind of your way of making things.. What you did in the radio station, well... that was the kind of thing she used to do, hence the nickname STEALTH. So Stealth came out to be Shane O' Connor, she was so good that LIBs never found out she was a mole for SeeD, and in a way to recognise her outstanding ability, the 'S' at the end of LIBs wasn't taken off. Now LIBs is the world's most famous private investigation group, consisting of only three members, nobody knows their real names, they are called Lana, Irvine and Balthazar just as the former members and, of course, they are their aprentices....
<< Lana Stewart, as she's called now, is the only girl of this group, she's been known as a prodigy child since the age of four. She might bee seen as a naive childish girl but, in her simple way of seeing things, she's accurate 100% of the times in her guesses. Some says she's some sort of psychic but she hasn't fully developed that yet.
<< The second member of the group is called Irvine Smith. He's THE prodigy in the group, with an IQ almost as double as the average person, if there's a problem, usually he's the one who cames up with the answer. Very antisocial and bad tempered, but he's said to be the guy with the fastest mind in the world.
<< Third is the one you have to watch out for, Balthazar Ramirez. Black belt in Kung-Fu, Jujitsu and Judo, he's deadly. When he's calm he's known to be master of numbers and statistics, he was the one who found out, thrugh an intense code decoding, where the russians were hiding one of the nuclear devises in his country almost 10 years ago. He's the one who goes public, if you're going to take the whole group down, you'll have to face him first and believe me, if he SEES you, consider yourself dead.

I heard her tell the whole story and the character explanation.. it was flawless, perfect.. How could she know this?? While I was still wandering the bus came and she went home... I went back inside my house and started thinking.. what was I suppose to do?? I had to take out this group, that's for sure.. but how?? I had to threaten them, I had to make them come here, make themselves public and destroy them, one by one... So, I had to kill someone again.. Could I do it???

When I woke up the rain was falling down as if someone above was throwing a bucket down the sky... LIBs were incredible, I had to be extremely careful. I took the bus and went really far so they couldn't 'guess' where I lived... Although it was 11:30 in the morning, it was incredibly dark. I looked for a victim and after a few blocks there he was. Tall, black hair, unathletic body, stupid round glasses.. a Nerd... it wouldn't even be fun... but I had to threaten them. Could I be able to kill him? that was the real question here.. I approached him and imagined every possible way I could kill him.. no darkness.. great!!

...
......
..........
- Irvieeeeeeee!!!!
- It is IRVINE girl! what do you want now?
- We were ri-ight, and you were wro-ong
She was singing that stupid song wich she knew I hate.. but the fact that she was right over my deduction were even a stronger reason to hate her than that lame song..
- What are you talking about?
