The Athena Code's
12. Meeting, fitting, fighting !!

DARPA central building: 675 North Randolph St, Arlington, Virginia, United States

DEFENSE ADVANCED RESEARCH PROJECTS AGENCY (DARPA) or the Sustainable Research Project Agency is an agency of the United States Department of Defense (PENTAGON) responsible for the development of new technologies for use by the military.

DARPA Deputy Chief of Project Supervisory, Barbara Clarkson grunted.

"What a really unsettling little rat" his tightly clenched jaw held back the anger.

Braaak....!!!!

The work table in front of him became an impingement.

"Hahahahhahaaha.... " The frustrated laughter echoed in the soundproof workspace. Both of his arms squeezed his own head with a huff.

Life is full of big surprises. Suddenly two people who had been very troublesome lived in the same place and worked together against him.

I should have killed them earlier, he said in his heart.

He is now under the supervision of his colleagues. His office and life are certainly threatened due to the chaos created by Athens on the Ghost Island of Palmyra Atoll.

Fortunately, there was no hard evidence that the investigation team could find after the explosion. All that remains is the statement and testimony of Athens 1609. Where it wasn't strong enough as evidence to bring Barbara down.

But the losses suffered from the secret project is very large.He lost two Laboratories, four robot warriors, five war-droids, and 15 people trust.

"Athena the little mouse, I underestimated him too much. " Curse Barbara Clarkson again with clenched fingers.

And now he has to face the initial designer of War-droid itself .Geon Arthur Yildiz's. Even the black eagle team he sent to Jakarta can be paralyzed without sweating a bit.

Arthur, a man who can't be persuaded by anything. So Barbara Clarkson was forced to order her men to kidnap her. Forcibly retrieving important data as well as blue print all the design of the designer.

After his goal is achieved his men dump Arthur in the Afghanistan conflict area and sell him to armed groups there. How he saved seal team 5, Navy Seal. Very lucky, Barbara thought.

He last met Arthur when he refused to continue with the contract offered by DARPA's supreme leader, Phil Anderson. An old man who doesn't get along with Barbara Clarkson's thoughts.

Mr. Phil Anderson also sent several agents to protect Arthur even though he was no longer under contract.

The old man was a colossus, according to Barbara.

"It's time to go the harder way".The 45-year-old woman who is still very beautiful and fit.

He searched for a mobile number and made a new call.

Jakarta, Indonesia

"What are you doing there, Hella? " Ask Rachel .

He was on the phone with Heilen from inside the red-flat Cadillac Escalade SUV that was driving gallantly. With heavy security from dozens of car brigadier troops. Some of the squad members were driving Harley Davidson.

"Just finished breakfast and exercise, now packing up to go somewhere, why? " Heilen's voice is short.

"I have a task from my boss to pick up a new hardware enginer, Arthur's brother Kamila.In a few minutes I'll be there."

Rachel covers up Arthur's actual work, as Arthur requests on a written contract.

"Woww, that's great . A hardware engineer should you pick him up?!Didn't I send you a video of the evidence he ransacked my room. How's investigation? "Cecar Heilen was a bit upset

" Of course I'm investigating, be patient don't keep asking, no fuss. "Jawab Rachel ketus

" hey".Heilen just grunted . She continued her discussion with Rachel.

"Oya, if you miss you can come out to welcome me".Rachel continued to relax.

" haha... ".Heilen just laughed at Rachel's pleasantries.

"By the way, you must have seen him, right, do you think he's very handsome? " Ask Rachel

"Who?"

"Arthur."

Rachel couldn't help but talk about the man she'd been staring at since last night. He just wanted to know what Heilen thought of Arthur.

"Oooh, so since he's handsome, it's gotta be you who picks him up." Heilen's great-grandson again

"Heilen..!! "

"You should investigate it anyway. Who knows if he's a secret agent to the Clarkson envoy who wants to harm me"

"Here it is, just nag it. It's I've arrived" Rachel screeched to close the long-distance conversation.

Arthur sat in the living room accompanied by Bend who was also neat with a black suit stellan and carrying a black suitcase. Arthur asked Bend to play his assistant as long as he would work later.

Rachel, accompanied by two brimob personnel, goes inside to pick up Arthur and Bend. After running the pick-up protocol and having a brief stale, they headed to the Cadillac escalade SUV that was specially brought to pick up Arthur.

"Let's Father Arthur. Hope you enjoy this trip." Rachel's speech is formal yet gentle

"Hemm, thank you" replied Arthur flatly and briefly.

"We are honored to participate in your activities this morning Mr. Arthur" continued Rachel again wanted to show her hospitality

"Oh".Sparing answer from Arthur

" I'm sure this cooperation will produce many good things".continued Rachel again friendly coupled with one sweet smile.

"mmmmm... ".Arthur just cleared his throat.

Bend began to be careless, he knew Arthur did not like too many conversations that were less important.

Meanwhile from behind the living room window curtain, Heilen squinted his eyes full of annoyance and suddenly felt fooled. Hmm....super tight security??Whisper's covered.

He couldn't believe Arthur was a hardware engineer.

"Hella, whip it up. Are you ready? In 15 minutes we'll be leaving for Navita Boutique. " Squeak Irina who suddenly appeared behind Heilen, was ready and beautiful .

"Ok, just wait a minute, I'm gonna grab my hodiee, my hat and my mask. " Sahut Heilen then half ran towards his room.

"Hissh.

"Nana, where's Heilen. We're leaving now". Kamila also seemed ready with a white pasmina veil that made her look shady, beautiful and sweet.

" Take another hat with a mask, he said, we wait a minute. "An Irina's Wagab

Behind Kamila follows the dashing Adam Sinaga, no less charming. Vibes they are like husband and wife who will go honeymoon only.

Two luxury cars owned by Adam Sinaga have come to pick up along with the four bodyguards who used to escort him.

Adam, Kamila, Irina one by one got into the car followed by Heilen who was a little excited.

Both luxury cars began to drive to Plaza Indonesia . There they were waiting for Dian Navita, one of the famous fashion designers, owner of Navita Boutique.

The Office of the Ministry of Defense of Ripublik Indonesia, Jl. Merdeka Barat, Central Jakarta

After a face-to-face meeting with Mr. Menhankam Ibrahim Saleh Munaf, Arthur's activities continued with the first meeting with senior officials in the scope of the Indonesian Ministry of Defense.

Rachel finally began to get to know more about the real figure and character of Arthur. All things only made her even more admire the handsome man before her.

A man who doesn't like to talk much. Silence, as if he only had good looks. But during a meeting and presentation before the generals just now, Arthur turned into a different person.

It is clear that his expertise and interest in all things related to weaponry. Especially modern and futuristic advanced weapons.

Arthur gave the view that in limited budget circumstances such as in Indonesia, the production of new types should be temporarily postponed. Advance innovation by adding new features to existing equipment. Improving quality without spending too much. Then Arthur gave a more detailed explanation of the new features. Aplaus of the audience reverberated.

Finally all the agenda of Arthur's activities this morning ended successfully.

"Congratulations, Mr. Arthur, the show went very well".Said Rachel trying to familiarize herself.

" thank you".Arthur replied flatly to Rachel who was walking parallel to him leaving the corridor. Bend followed behind.

They are already in the car.

"Can you take us to Navita Boutique at Plaza Indonesia? " ask Arthur

"Oh, of course. Sorry, if you may know what events or activities Mr Arthur there?" Rachel asked politely.

" Fitting party costumes" replied Arthur briefly

Rachel became embarrassed to face this cold figure, very stingy talk. Maybe because it was their first day of interaction, Rachel thought. Who knows, maybe better. Rachel smiled optimistically .

Meanwhile, Arthur was busy stroking his smartphone. He contacted Kamila, but there was no answer.

Although hesitantly he finally ventured to call the Heilen number he got when checking Kamila's desk. Maybe this is the time to be more open to accept what he feels.After the chat was sent He smiled happily, but his heart did not escape the worry and worry.

Rachel and Bend did not dare to comment seeing Arthur's smiling behavior unclear.

NAVITA BOUTIQUE, Plaza Indonesia, Central Jakarta.

"Mbak Dian I love it, the dress is beautiful, uwwuw...."

"Yes, baby, pretty".Dian Navita is excited

Kamila said as she turned around cheerfully wearing Princess Aurora's soft pink sleeping dress.

"later I wear a long-sleeved t-shirt with a bit of skin color, keep the passion from my own collection.how uda, beautiful right me? " ask Adam without a burden

"Yes pretty dong, hot girl time".Adam tried to hide his admiration for this girl who had made her mouth almost open.

Kamila was just a manyun to hear it, unsatisfied.

" Hey look, am I like Odette's daughter swan lake? "Squeak Irina while mimicking the dance movements of the ballet to and fro.

" Huf... "Decah Adam's. It will be a long time if this is the case, he lamented in the heart.

" Well, I'm wearing Elsa's dress, hihihi... "Ask Heilen giggling because somehow he felt so embarrassed . For the first time she was wearing such a girly and glamorous dress like this. It feels like he's not himself but he likes it.

" Well beautiful bestie. "Taught Kamila amazed

" I added this. "cloak Heilen again while putting a beautiful silver cloth mask decorated with swarowsky crystals on the edges.

" Well, don't look pretty like that".Irina Samber.

Adam could only silently choke attention to the behavior of the girls. Seeing Kamila happy, his bored and tired feeling disappeared instantly.

"Ting"

Voice incoming messages on Mobile Heilen. Heilen.

Are you guys still at the Navita Boutique? Wait for me on the way there.Please tell Kamila.Arthur

DEG!

Somehow his heart had to overreact to get the first chat from the man. Where did he get my phone number, Heilen asked in his heart. Probably from Kamila, he answered himself.

Heilen :

"OK"

Arthur :'s :

Take a picture of the costume you will be wearing later. Let me adjust.

Directly Heilen took one reference photo that Kamila had sent when choosing a costume.

ting's.

"Oh my God, hahaha.like the child of Kindergarten only "Sizzle Arthur could not help but laugh amusedly at the picture sent Heilen.

Rachel really felt neglected on this first day. Unknowingly she pursed her cute lips, there was a hint of annoyance there. It felt like he peeked into the screen in Arthur's hand and saw what made Arthur smile.

Meanwhile, Heilen had not had time to put his salary back, suddenly - arrived.

"Master, sir . .!! "

"Master Adam Sinaga, there's a commotion on the ground floor!! " Shouted Ferdy one of Adam's bodyguards while hunting Adam Sinaga among the girls who were posing recklessly in front of the large mirror provided by the boutique. Ferdy's breath hunts erratically.

But no one heard the commotion in question because this room was soundproofed.

"OK, okay...Explain it calmly" Adam Sinaga said calmly

"What is this so tense? " ask Irina

"Yes, what's the matter? "Kamila chimed

Heilen who heard everything immediately ran to pick up something behind his hoodie that he had just put on the side of the model.

"I'll check for you soon".Heilen said slowly, then he ran towards the main door of the boutique. Sure enough the employees and shopgoers were in a terrible fear.

Heilen peeked out from behind the glass door between the beautiful dresses, he saw people running around. Among them were three people dressed in black and wearing a head covering brandishing a shotgun parallel to their shoulders. They make people run in fear.

"Whoever don't move or fight if we want to survive, we won't hurt you, we're just looking for one person. Please calm down or a bullet that will calm you down!!"An announcement from the loudspeaker, it seems to be one of the rioters.

Heien ran back inside looking for his comrades.

"You guys stay calm, shut up and hide here. They're just looking for one. I'm going to go get help." Said Heilen made up the story because the real plan he would face the criminal gang alone.

"Heilen, stay here, aren't they just looking for someone" Kamila said she couldn't hide her fear

.

No one else had said anything, Heilen had already run out of the boutique.

"Hey dress it up, let it go".Shouted Sister Dian Navita, Kamila and Irina together among their fears.However, Heilen has disappeared.

Heilen accidentally did not take off the costume and princess Elsa wig she was wearing earlier to disguise herself. He had to stay away from his colleagues because he did not want to harm them.

He saw about nine figures armed with Italian M-4 Super 90 shotguns. He had to make a no-tik battle that caused the enemy to split up.

Heilen took the position of mingling with the Plaza visitors who ducked in fear while raising both of their hands, the surrender position. Heilen had not yet raised both hands like those people, suddenly two figures of Jacketed and masked black from behind the wall of the corridor to the left. Both seem to be careless. The position of Heilen is very profitable, because it is covered by four people in front and side.

Without hesitation Heilen directly direct SIG Sauer P226 which he had been holding.

Blast !

Blast !

Without a deafening sound, only the precise whirring of the bullet hit its target. Two black-masked, jacketed men collapsed with blood spurting into the glass of the store gallery next to them.

The people around Heilen who were mostly mothers immediately screamed and scattered for a while. While away from there they had seen a girl in costume Princess Elsa was disarming the two men who were shot earlier.
