Nis
NIS HAD BEEN BUSY FOR THE LAST TWO DAYS, and he knew his siblings were worried about him. They were staying at a hotel in Carson City and they were gonna head to Phoenix later.
He had been working on something on his laptop and he wasn't ready to tell his siblings yet, it could ruin his plan. He was alone in his room, his roommate, Nico was at the girls' shared room to have his wounds treated.
"Once this is done, I promise to actually go and personally meet my CIA buyers." he muttered to himself.
He took another laptop and clicked the CCTV camera connections he managed to hack in the hotel, plus the ones he installed in the girls' room.
"I'm worried about Nis. Don't you think he's been isolating himself these last few days?" he heard Niche said through the audio.
"I don't know sis. Nis is smart and old enough to handle himself. He's just probably working on another invention and he doesn't want us to know about it yet." he heard Nica reply.
"I don't know about you two, but he's seriously getting creepy. I woke up in the middle of the night last night and saw him doing something in his computer and he was laughing." Nico commented.
He remembered last night. He was up late at night to finish his supposedly 'plan'. He was near completion so he laughed. What he didn't know was that Nico was up that night.
"He should really loosen up." Nica said.
"Our parents are in danger Nica, we cannot just, 'loosen up'." Niche sneered.
And there go their arguments. A smile crept on Nis' face as he watched his two twin sisters argue while his twin brother tried stopping them.

"Loosen up huh." he muttered.
He closed his laptops, stuffed them in his bag, together with the Codex and went outside the room. There was only one thing that could make him 'loosen up', as Nica said it.

"Hey babe." Nis greeted a red headed girl. She was sexy alright, with her tight black shorts, fitting yellow spaghetti blouse and three inch heels.
Nis was quite the ladies man. He was supposed to be a geek or nerd but his appearance and features were too hot for that.
Imagine a tall guy, probably 6'3 in height, with well built muscles, neither stocky nor skinny, with tan skin, neither too light nor too dark. His spiky blonde hair and piercing blue eyes went well with his black rimmed glasses. That's Nis Alexander Bravo Cortes-Warren.
"Well hello there handsome." the girl replied in a seductive tone.
The girl who flirted with him was probably the same age as him or a few years older. "Want to have fun?"
"As long as it's not illegal, sure!" Nis gave her a seductive smirk.
Nis put his arm around the girl's waist and they ventured toward one of the buildings. His siblings were aware of this habit of his, being a womanizer. Much to their disgust, they got used to it. At least they haven't heard anything about him bringing a girl to bed yet.
When he and the girl reached an alleyway, the girl kissed him immediately.
"Whoa!" he pushed her. "Not too fast. And don't you think we need to this somewhere nicer?"
"I can't believe you'd easily fall for that, Nis Warren." the girl smirked.
"How-"
Nis was not able to finish his words because he suddenly felt being hit at the back of his head and everything went black.

When Nis opened his eyes, bright light greeted him. He had to squint his already blurry eyesight. When his vision cleared, the first thing he noticed was being bound to a chair. His hands were tied to the chair's armrest and his feet to the chair's legs. His mouth was taped and in front of him was the girl he was kissing before he lost consciousness.
"Good! You're awake." the girl said. She took off the tape.
"Ouch! That hurts!" he complained.
"Tch. A geek actually being a womanizer? I didn't believe it at first, but I suppose the Doctor was right."
"'Doctor'? Are you talking about Dr. Crazy?"
"It's Dr. Collusus. Anyhoo, you've been out for at least three hours, your siblings would be looking for you."
The girl sat on his lap. "I was gonna have fun with you, but unfortunately, it was a trap set up to get you and delay your progress. This is after all a part of Dr. Collusus's plan, yeah?"
"And I thought you were beautiful." Nis hissed. He tried to struggle from his bonds, but he was bound good.
The girl kissed him and he responded. The girl broke away after an entire minute.
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Macy." she paused and stood up. "See you when I see you, Mr. Warren."
He watched her put another tape on his mouth and the walked away. He was left in the room.
'What a good kisser.' he thought.
Then a man in a suit came in and injected him with something and he slipped into unconsciousness once again.
