~~~(POV: Scott Autumn)~~~

~~~(Location: The West Center Mall)~~~

She's keeping me on my toes, and I can tell by the look on her face she's enjoying the situation she's putting me in.

No matter how intelligent a person is, put an attractive person in front of them that suits their taste. They'll turn into an idiot. I'm susceptible to the same thing, and I find that pleasantly humbling. I'm not perfect, and that's good.

Her skirt and the way she's walking is making me feel dumber by the minute. Jessica knows how to attract a man, which means she's dangerous in that regard.

She knows how to move her body the perfect way and how to bend in that skirt to tease me. Not showing me anything that I want to see, but on edge. Sure, there are other people around, but few, and none are looking.

She's almost completely filled up the shopping cart at this point, and I'll say that it's something to behold.

Never have I seen so many things packed perfectly into a cart. My mind is automatically running through the math and geometry, and how it's done is memorized.

Even now, I'm learning... I don't know where the use of packing a cart perfectly will come into play.

But I have the knowledge now, and there is no getting rid of it. Amid my thoughts, my phone goes off, and I take it out of my pocket.

To my surprise, the custom security system that I installed is going off, and I look at the live feed in my house. As the live feed pops up on my phone, I see several men in black suits going through my house.

Not wanting to alarm Jess, I keep what's happening to myself. I want to see what they do and what they're after. I plug my headphones in and turn up the volume to hear them talk.

"Did GBFT ever tell you why we're too bug this place?"

So that's what they're doing in my house... Planting bugs, and to support this, they bring in a briefcase that has all their equipment.

GBFT is the company that has ownership over The Aeternus Universe, and it's currently under a lot of fire right now for what it's done to the human population.

Around 76 percent of humanity is no longer human. They look human, but their DNA is the same as the race they selected in The Aeternus Universe.

"Just shut up and do your job."

Obviously, this is the leader.

So it seems like the people that know about me have decided to make a move, and most people would feel violated or threatened, but I'm not feeling like that. To me, this is a challenge.

"Sorry, but we don't usually get paid this much to bug some random person's house. Aren't the least bit curious?"

So the people bugging me don't know who I am?

That's a calculated move on the end of whoever's doing this at GBFT. These men are probably going to be killed after they complete this mission.

A company like GBFT doesn't leave loose ends.

GBFT doing this tells me that the fire their company is under holds no threat to them. I'm more of a concern than the several governments after them.

I quickly look at Jess, and she's still distracted by her shopping, which is good. I set the security system to record, and I turn my phone off.

Taking out my headphones and putting my phone and headphones back into my pocket. When I get home, I'll review everything and get rid of the bugs they've placed.

Since they're likely getting killed after this job, they won't return.

This adds new complexity to my life, and it also means that I can't spend as much time in The Aeternus Universe now that whoever has been watching me is making moves.

Until I figure out whos watching me and trying to figure out more about me, I'll have to severely limit my time spent in The Aeternus Universe.

Real-life and virtual reality have already collided once since The Aeternus Universe was created.

People being turned into what they selected as their in-game race was that event. Now another event is happening, but it's only to me, and it's extremely personal.

Once I get home, there are things that I'll need to take care of.
