In Paul's office
Paul enters the room.
"Where did you go?" Asks Jack.
"To the toilet," Paul replies.
Jack looks at Paul and says, "You look nervous."
"Jack," says Chloe, and Jack looks away from Paul to her. "I was able to decode the second file."
"Good job," says Jack. "What does it say?"
"The truth is that this is the problem," Chloe says. "It says only the name of a hotel and a room number."
"What about the rest of the information in the file?" Asks Jack.
"This file works with the third file," says Chloe. "Which means that in order to know the rest of the information in this file, we need to decode the third file and then combine the information."
"Okay," says Jack. "what's the address?"
"Hotel Garcia, room number 1609," says Chloe.
"I'll go there now," Jack says.
"I'm coming with you," Paul says.
"No, you'll stay here," Jack says.
"Jack, when they gave me the card I saw one of the terrorists," Paul lies. "You need me in the field, I can identify them."
"Okay, you can go with me, but without a weapon, okay?" Says Jack.
"Yes," Paul replies.
Jack turns to Tony and says, "I want you and Chloe to keep working here in secrecy, I don't want anyone to know what we're doing."

"Even George?" Asks Tony.
"Yes," says Jack. "And stay in touch with us all the time."
"Okay," says Tony.
Jack and Paul leave the room.
At Johnny's position
Johnny sits next to Nicole. Johnny watches Jack and Paul while there are leaving Paul's office.
"What do you think they're doing there?" Johnny asks.
Who? "Nicole asks.
"Jack, Chloe, Tony and Paul," Johnny says. "They've been in Paul's temporary office for a while, they seem to be planning something.
"I don't know and it's none of your business," Nicole says.
"What happened to you?" Says Johnny. "Most of these things interest you."
"I'm busy now, okay?" Grumbling Nicole.
"We'll just check for one second and we'll be back," Johnny tries to convince her.
"I have a lot of work now and I want to prevent the attempted assassination of Senator David Palmer," says Nicole. "I can't waste time now on your spy games, so if you want to spy on them you'll do it on your own."
"What is the matter with you?" Says Johnny as he nods his head and rolls his eyes. "I just wanted to know what they were doing."
In the kitchen in a house
9:24:56, 9:24:57, 9:24:58, 9:24:59
A woman in her fifties walks into the kitchen. She has brown hair of medium length, smooth and tidy. In the kitchen sits her husband, a fifty-something man with short gray hair. The man is reading a newspaper and next to him is a hot cup of coffee.
"He said he would be here at eight," says the woman.
"So he's late," says her husband, sipping coffee.
"His flight is at eleven and he doesn't answer the phone," the woman says anxiously.

"Maybe the battery of his phone is over."
"No, when I called him the phone rang."
Her husband finishes his coffee and says, "Look, he might be in a hurry to his flight and he doesn't have time to talk to you now."
"And what about the friend he's flying with?" Says the woman. "Do you have his number?"
"No."
"What can we do?" The woman asks anxiously.
"Don't worry, Ronny can take care of himself, he'll probably be back in a few hours, he's probably busy now," says her husband, rising from the chair.
He goes up to her and says, "I have to go to work now, I'm sure that in a few hours it will turn out that everything was fine, so don't worry.
"Yes" says the woman while she is hoping for the best, but inside her she has a mixed feeling about it.
He kisses her on the cheek. He walks to the front door and leaves the house.
In the kitchen at Hotel Garcia
A waiter enters the kitchen. He walks to a side room next to the kitchen. He leans against the wall, takes out his phone and calls.
Split screen: The waiter is in the kitchen while he is talking to James in the main room of the old building.
"What took you time to get there?" Asks James.
"I told you, my shift is at ten," says the waiter. "For you, I managed to start the shift a half an hour earlier."
"Well, it doesn't matter as long as you arrive before they clean rooms at ten," James says.
"What room is he in?"
"Room 1609," replies James.
"OK."
"And when you get rid of the body, call me," James says, and hangs up.
The waiter puts his phone in his pocket.

The Patchwork Realms
Athos is a good dog. He likes frisbee, bacon, and his family (SmolFriend, Mom, and Dad). He's not so keen on falling through an interdimensional portal to a fantasy world where floating boxes tell you that you've just been given status as the 'Supreme Exemplar' of your species, a powerful package of abilities that includes human-level intelligence. Sure, being smart is nice but less so when it comes with the need to survive in a land made from bits of different dimensions stitched together like patches in a quilt. A thousand species, a thousand lands, sorcery and super science rubbing elbows, wars and intrigue everywhere...it's exhausting for a good dog who just wants to go home! Note that this is a work in progress with lots of fiddly numbers so I will occasionally need to go back and fix errors, and this might affect events of earlier chapters. I'll try to keep this to a minimum and will post a note whenever it happens. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Helena's Plane
Paul, a bored young man, wakes up in a white room. A young woman tells him he has died, that she is some kind of god who likes videogames and he will be reborn in an RPG-esque world so she and her fellow god-friends can watch him for entertainment.Unfortunately, the goddess forgot to give Paul most of the obligatory, obvious cheat-abilities to make him rush to power in easy mode. Paul embraces his new life full of clichés, perverts, magic, loot and action. And animal girls.18+ !CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL CONTENT! (Actual sex is still hard to find, but you will get it. Eventually. Sporadically.) =================Author's note:So, this is my very first novel. It will be poorly written, has a huge info-dump disguised as a first chapter (to be rewritten. At some point in the future. I guess.), and may or may not offend everyone for different reasons. Perhaps you will just find it boring, which would be even worse. The description turned out a bit comedic, but the story isn't overly so.I have a rough idea of where this will be going, but expect some bumps on the road, as well as logic holes, flat characters and a lot of borderline copyright infringements from all the ideas I got reading other works. And did I mention I'm not a native speaker? No? Well, expect some embarrassing grammar and wording choices.The main character is a more or less normal guy, without high morals, martial arts skills or even a desirable goal in life. There is mature content, in terms of violence and sexual content. It won't become a full-blown erotic novel, and it may or may not be your cup of tea when it comes to the type of content.Critics welcome.

Almave
Welcome to AlmaVé. First thing you have to know is that it's a tragedy. Nope, not talking about my book yet. It's a tragedy that you're reading this instead of clicking on chapter 1. I did fail speech introductions after all. My story? Right that's what you're here for. My bad, try this: Lilia Hammond is reborn (cliché, but we all know we enjoy it when it's done for a purpose) as Syndra Sanmey. She was a graphic designer who hadn't caught her break yet. She was paralyzed for months before she was offered the opportunity to join a program that would allow her to-NOPE! not virtual reality. The doctors killed her and dumped her body. Tough. In her new world, Lilia has to fight herself to find out who she truly is. With the possibility to cast magic and a second chance at life, Lilia thinks she can really make something for herself. Her goal? Become the greatest artist the world had ever seen. The rub? World is a bit darker than anything she saw on earth. Thankfully, Lilia is getting quite familiar with the darkness inside her and her magic might just be the thing to save the-hey! wait it's not that kind of book. No saving the world. No hero syndrome. Just magic and blood and a bit of crafting. Yup. Fighting. Romance? Eh? What's that? The first arc is Lilia's shift from Earth to creating backstories for the three major characters. It's not funny and light. It's often dark and funny. Ah, I really should have gone through a punk-rock phase. Or goth. Would I look good with black hair? Hmm.. There are three MCs and they are Jackson, Daryl, and Lilia/Syndra. Daryl is currently kidnapped and Jackson just awakened his magic. I don't want to spoil (much) but soon things will be very fun to write. Hope to see you there! Leave a comment even if you're just stopping by so I can say hey! Chapters to be published twice weekly.
