[2:18pm]
"Hey who took my last granola bar?!" Tina yelled coming out of the kitchen door. You and the other agents were hanging out in the lounge room as usual when you guys aren't working. You sat along a couch by yourself crossing both your legs and arms, staring at the ground thinking about the moment you and Meowcles were up in Midas' office 20 minutes ago. And that Demi girl. You could picture her smug look that she gave you as if you were nothing but a peasant.
"Not me." Meowcles and Skye said at the same time. Brutus looked over at Peely who was avoiding eye contact with Tina making it obvious that he's guilty as charged.
"Peelyy! Again??" She scolded the banana putting her hands on her hips.
"Sorry, I got hungry in the middle of the night last night!" He confessed now looking at the girl in the Ka-Boom crop top. Tina rolled her eyes and muttered a 'Whatever' before turning back into the kitchen where you assume she'd look for something else to snack on. Your stomach grumbled at the thought of food, making it obvious that you were hungry and needed something in your system. You finally took your eyes off the ground in front of you and stood up as Skye looked up at you curious as to what your next move was going to be.
"Hey is it okay if I get something to eat from the kitchen?" You asked Skye.
"Yeah of course! You're welcome to take whatever you want." She answered in a sweet tone. You quietly gasped and smiled giving her a quick 'Thank you' before you followed towards the door that Tina went through.
You opened the door revealing Tina on her tippy toes trying to reach for a mug in the back of the cabinet. Unable to get your mind off Midas and Demi, you decided to talk to Tina about it, woman to woman.
"Hey Tina," You started
"Oh hey, what's up?"
"I just came in here to get something to eat, but like, I wanted to ask you something real quick." You continued as you walked over to the fridge right next to Tina. She finally got the mug out of the cabinet then finally turning her attention fully on you as she rested her back on the counter.
She was curious as to what you wanted to talk about, she wondered if it could be something serious and if it was, why would you want to talk about it to her, someone you just recently met. Though, she was flattered that someone shy like you felt safe having a private conversation with you.
"Meowcles and I went up to Midas' office and there a girl there.. She wore a red dress, had a red robotic arm-"
"Demi." Tina cut you off
"Uh- Yeah, how'd you know?"
"Theres no other girl that would be up in his office as much as her, and you mentioned that she was wearing a red dress which kinda gave it away." Tina simply answered.
"Yeah, who is she? Is she an agent like you guys?" You asked. Why else would she be up in his office and sitting on his desk. Tina sighed looking away from you looking slightly annoyed at the thought of Demi. It kind of made you happy as you weren't the only one that wasn't so fond of her. It was evil to have that type of mindset towards someone but, come on, the girl was an asshole.

"She's one of Midas' groupies, his main one basically." Tina said widening her eyes acting surprised. You only knew what a groupie was from being a fangirl of famous bands like 5 Seconds of Summer or One Direction so hearing that's who she was, made you slightly jealous.
group·ie
/ˈɡro͞opē/
noun
INFORMALa person, especially a young woman, who regularly follows a pop music group or other celebrity in the hope of meeting or getting to know them.
"She's the only one of his 'groupies' that can actually get in his pants more than once. His others, if lucky, could get a one night stand or even a kiss at the end of the night." Tina sighed again. "That man knows all the women on this island would fall on their knees for him, leave their boyfriends behind for him, or even kill for him. He knows the power he holds not only over this whole island but all the ladies too. Not me though, swear I'm immune to his charming good looks and if anything it makes me sick." She ranted
You felt that heavy feeling in your chest. 'He's just another fuckboy' you thought. You hated boys like him back at home. Boys who knew that were good looking and used it as an advantage to get whoever they want because they knew they were the shit, to you, it made them unattractive.. but, for some reason, you don't feel that way towards your boss and you hated and loved it at the same time.
Tina only knew this information from being friends with a lot of people all over the island. She'd expect Midas to try and keep it on the low when it came to him and his sex life, but it'd what fueled his ego. Word gets out pretty quick, especially to Tina but she knows to not bring it up to him though he's aware that she knows.
"Wow so.. He has a lot of sex with these random girls?" You knew the answer but deep down you didn't wanna hear the truth.
"Yup, I've seen a couple of girls try and sneak out his room on early mornings too, once I even saw two girls come out." Tina didn't know, but the more she filled you in on this information, the more the knife was being stabbed into your heart.
"T- two??" Your face dropped at the thought of him during a threesome. To think that you'd even DREAM about being the one in the bed. The thought of him being with so many girls hurt, even if you did have the slightest chance with him, you knew you'd overthink about the amount of girls that's been in his bed. What if he's been with so many girls that he gets tired of sticking to one? Would he drop you like trash or would he cheat with multiple women? 'snap out of it! You're not even dating him!'
"Yeah, he's pretty wild. Why do you even ask?" She looked at your confused
"Uh, I just.. was just wondering.." You lied. Tina narrowed her eyes at you, reading your face. Suddenly her face lit up.
"No way!! You like-"
"AH SH SH SHHHESHH!" You threw your right hand over her mouth and placed your left hand on her shoulder to hold her in place making sure she doesn't move her head away. You widen your eyes. Tina giggled evilly into the palm of your hand then slowly pulled it off her mouth. You let go and just stared at each other.

"Girl, first of all, you just started working here! And two, you are way too pretty to be one of his weird fan girls."
"If I was a weird fan girl I would be the one all over him in his office. I just have a crush so what? Maybe I'll get over it." You knew what wasn't the truth.
"Shit I probably shouldn't have said all those things about him and his groupies.." Tina whispered feeling bad.
"No! it's okay, if anything don't feel bad to tell me more, I wanna know." Tina nodded her head before she pretended to zip her lips shut, showing that she won't tell anyone about your dirty little secret.
"Good, now do you guys have fruits?" You asked changing the subject.
Time Skip [3:48pm]
You rested your head in your left hand on your desk listening to the clock ticking while being caught up in your thoughts.
How long am I going to be here until I get home? Is Midas even going to be the one to help me? Is there anyone else that could help? Are the other agents even aware that I'm not from here? Is there even anything fun to do around here? Are the lives here just like how they are back at home? Where the hell can I get those glasses that I need?
You were stressing way too much about all those questions and you needed to relax. Taking a deep breath closing your eyes you told yourself that you will live your life here like you would back at home. They're still real people (In a way?) and now you're living with them. Now, You've accepted the fact that you'll be here for a while, so get comfortable.
There was a knock on your door making you sit up straight as you cleared your throat. It was a henchmen.
"y/n, how is everything? I'm obligated to check up on you once in a while when you're in here."
"I'm good thank you." You smiled. He nodded his head about to leave before you stopped him.
"Wait, can I ask a quick question?" He looked at you waiting for you to ask away. "Uhm.. I just wanted to ask if you knew if Midas was busy at the moment? Better yet, alone?" you asked quietly. He's been on your mind for as long as you could remember and although you guys haven't have a proper conversation since your embarrassing introduction, you were dying to hear his voice, hear him talk, hear him say your name.
"He's in his office doing work as usual but you could visit him if you'd like." He informed.
"Okay thank you, you can go now." You dismissed the henchmen. As the door shut you let out a big huff from your lips, cracking your knuckles. "Just go in there and talk to him like nothing even happened." whispered, trying to push yourself. You untangled your legs and got up pushing your chair into your desk.
You slowly walked over towards Midas' office flattening your skirt down and slightly fixing your hair. The sound of your own footsteps getting closer and closer making you nervous each second. You approached his door knocking three times. Time suddenly felt slower than usual, you either waited for a response or a longer silence indicating that he was too busy to invite you in.
"Come in." your heart jumped at the invitation. You quickly reached for the door handle to see Midas writing on piles of paper not looking at you. You quietly closed the door behind you slowly walking in front of his desk. You stood there awkwardly. You looked like a lost puppy. You felt a rush of heat go to your cheeks. 'Fuck! I'm getting red and nervous!' You cursed yourself. Midas signed his signature on the bottom of a paper then placing the gold pen on the desk before finally looking up at you.
"Can I help you?" He spoke. You already started melting at his soothing voice, it fit him so well and damn was it hot.
"I just... We haven't spoken in a while and-"
"We spoke earlier today did we not?" He cut you off. Damn, bit rude.
"I mean- You and Meowcles did, I just happened to be there... While your girlfriend kept giving me dirty looks." You didn't care if you sounded rude or petty for bringing it up, it was the truth. Midas slightly narrowed his eyes at you, intimidating you.
"She's not my girlfriend, and my apologies, I must've not realized that you hadn't said anything."
"It's fine... We haven't talked recently and.. I've just been thinking that it was because I asked a personal and inappropriate question a few days ago when I was introducing myself." You made strong eye contact with him for once, not feeling as nervous, feeling bold to speak up for yourself.
"I see." Is all he said
"I just wanted to say I'm sorry since I never got the right time to say it loud and clear to your face.. So yeah, I'm sorry." You admitted. He stared at you and you stared back, unable to read his face. Was he mad? Glad? Angry? God it's so hard to read someone with a resting bitch face. The silence between you two was loud. The only thing you could hear being the AC blowing in his air vents.
"Don't apologize, you didn't know, it's okay." He finally said. A wave of relief washed over you finally feeling at peace. All you could do is nod your head.
"So that girl.. She wasn't your girlfriend?" You knew asking that was inappropriate but you couldn't help it. He chuckled a bit, making you feel better.
"She's... she's just someone close to me." He answered. "Jealous?" he quickly added making your eyes go big.
"I- What? No? Jealous?" You stuttered. In reality you wanted to say 'YES, OF COURSE!' you felt the rush of heat come up to your face again. You tried to laugh it off which made him chuckle again.
"You know I'm kidding." He said. 'Huh, I guess Mr. Big boss serious man, isn't too serious at all, he's got jokes. Cute.' You enjoyed hearing his voice again, it made you feel happy. You enjoyed being in his presence, his office, you wanted to stick around longer but before you could continue the conversation any longer the door opened to reveal the bitch herself.
"Demi." Midas said
Taking his eyes off you and to the girl behind you. You turned your head and body slightly already seeing her glare at you. She took her eyes off you and looked at Midas, quickly changing the expression on her face so quick you swear all you did was blink and now she had the biggest and fakest smile towards your boss. You turned your attention back to Midas not knowing if you should excuse yourself or start a fight with the bitch in the red dress standing behind you.
"Hey.. We'll continue this conversation another time yeah?" Midas whisper before winking at you on the last part. You screamed. 'WINK? that surely had to be towards Demi and not me??' You whispered an "Okay." Back at him with a smile, too shy to return a wink. You knew that'd be on your mind for the rest of the day.
You turned on your heel walking back towards the door with your arms crossed, taking a quick look at Demi who gave you the side eye as she began walking towards Midas' desk. You didn't bother looking back when you closed the door as you did not want to see how close she must've already gotten to your boss. Well shit, who knew you'd have beef with someone from Fortnite?

Birth of an AntiHero
AntiHero's FIRST REWRITE IN THE WORKS - thanks!! :] EDIT 2/28/22 - sorry, health problems right now, but I will post after rewriting the first 80-90,000 words or so and start fresh from there! Expect the change to be uploaded before summer! So long as I can keep using my hands, that is~! ^_^ X] This story will indeed get fleshed out as my vision improves for the better. But I feel the need to emphasize that a lot of parts are written in improvised comic book format as my primary writing style, and this first book is actually the entry point and starting novel for an entire very vast series I am in the works of developing. Many side characters here will eventually be main characters with there own stories; long or short. But this one particularly will be focused and centralized around Noel. Because of this, I do plan to leave the introduction for side characters as still having a special flow for readers to witness a tad of their background, so keep that in mind after my 'obviously many' rewrites from now and going into the future! Sorry for the troubles! I will improve on my style and implementation of the story!(Although I DO plan to keep parts as 'play style' or rather, comic book style, since I find it easier for certain dialogue instances as well as the fact that the novel is inspired by that 'feeling' you get while reading comic books. But my style is still evolving, you were warned!) Thank you! - Noel Tyler Malierano. He's the youngest 'son' to receive approval from 'The Malierano Family': A Criminal Organization of hitmen and hitwomen that specialize in killing, even maintaining success within a vastly superpowered society. Noel finally manages to complete his training as the newest 'Elite' killer his family created...but, there's just one problem - He doesn't want to kill! Come along and delve into a society of conflicting morals through the eyes of a boy, desperately searching for a new path to follow. Can he even manage to free himself from his father's engrained teachings and ideals? Conversely, will killing prove a lot more difficult to ignore? --- --> Thank you very much for reading! It would be helpful for me if you all consider leaving me a comment or an inbox suggestion, a review or even a full rating wherever AND whenever you believe I need to improve on anything or if something I wrote irked you! I appreciate EVERYONE that comes to read my story, however I DO want to improve my work as a writer. I hope all of you who don't like my work will let me know somehow, so I can edit and IMPROVE my story as a whole! Thank you everyone for your time! --- JUST TO NOTE!! When a character has a cultural name like, say, a Japanese or Russian name, that is because that character IS Japanese or Russian! They don't have to be FULL of one ethnicity either - sometimes they will be mixed. This story mainly takes place on an artificial continent where all countries have sent over their respective talents, meaning characters of ALL cultures and ethnic backgrounds will show hints of that in their names. Please don't assume I'm just randomly naming characters names that don't match them. And feel free to talk to me about whatever in my story troubles you - no matter how small! I love to improve. ^-^ X] --- Just to note: Characters will slowly grow as time passes. Slow pace. THANKS for reading! Enjoy! :] --- Decided to post 2 chapters every Tuesday and Friday instead of taking a small break, but I MAY upload once in a while on different days, such as Sundays, in addition to those two. :]
