Day Neen...


    ~~*****~~


    Since Nathan grounded her, Abigail had no choice but to stay at home. She spent most of her time ying with Ethan. The young boy missed her so much, so he didn''t leave her side for the whole day.


    Abigail, on the other hand, was trying to ease her boredom. She was waiting for Nathan to summon her as he mentioned yesterday that they would meet Jun Shen today.


    Abigail stayed in Ethan''s yroom once again, just like what she did yesterday. The two were having bonding time together with Powy and Riemc.


    The two robots could only watch Abigail and Ethan as they yed an online game. Ethan let Abigail borrow one of hisptops while the young boy used his desktop.


    The online game they were ying was the ''Battle Camp''. This was the new version of the online game Nathan was used to ying a long time agoa€“ Mission XXX.


    SYP Twilight Corp developed this new program, enhancing the online game Mission XXX. This was also Nathan''s way of preserving the memories he had with Monica when they were still ying buddiesa€“ SizzlingAugust08 and Shining_Star.


    Nathan was one of the game developers who enhanced this program. And it sold a lot in the market. Aside from producing high technologies and new inventions, SYP Twilight Corp also focused on developing and designing online games.


    The SYP Twilight Corp was currently working on an important project called Virtual World: Global Battlefield. Ethan was helping Nathan in testing the features of the games. It was still in an early stage.


    Nathan was nning to restore the characters of SizzlingAugust08 and Shining Star in Mission XXX, incorporating them into this Virtual World: Global Battlefield. He nned tounch this game on the third year anniversary of Monica''s death,memorating her. He even included Phantomke as a character viin in the online virtual game.


    <o>,m As Abigail opened theptop, she noticed the old app of Mission XXX on Ethan''sptop. She was put in a trance for several seconds. She had conflicting emotions as this app brought memories from the past. She felt nostalgic.</o>


    Abigail''s strange reaction caught Ethan''s attention. So he followed her line of sight. Then he found out that Abigail was looking at the older version of Battle Camp which was known as Mission XXX.


    "Miss Abi, do you know how to y this game?" Ethan asked her. His question brought her back to the present.


    Abigail smiled faintly and nodded her head. "Yes. I used to y this game during my teen years..."


    "Do you want us to y this game today? This is the old version... I mean the original version of Battle Camp!" Ethan excitedly said. He once yed this game together with his father, Nathan.


    Sometimes, he would catch his father ying this game during his free time. Ethan had observed that ying this game was one way of relieving his father''s stress.


    "What role do you like to y in Mission XXX?" Ethan asked her innocently. Both of them clicked the app. Ethan used theputer desktop while Abigail used theptop.


    "I like ying the assassin role. How about you?" Abigail asked him back.


    "I like being the Hitman!" Ethan said as he used the same character his Dad was using before.


    Abigail fell silent for a moment as she was reminded of someone. Then a small smile crept up from the corners of her lips. ''A hitman... I knew someone who yed as the strongest hitman on this server...''


    "What is your yer ID? I will add you," Abigail took a peek at Ethan''s desktop screen.


    Ethan didn''t use his father''s ID this time. He made his own yer ID named Tegesu.


    "Tegesu!" Ethan proudly said.


    Abigail could only smile at his remarks. He seemed so excited to y this game andplete a mission together with her.


    "How about you, Miss Abi? What yer ID did you use?" Ethan also leaned to her side, checking her monitor.


    "Cliste, that''s my yer ID. I chose a female assassin!" Abigail created a new ount and she named it Cliste.


    "Wow! Add me as your friend and ally!" Ethan cheerfully said, his eyes sparkling with excitement.


    He was d that Abigail also liked to y online games. He oftenpetes with his Dad. But since Nathan had be busy, he could no longer y with him more often.


    "Game on!" Ethan dered as the two created an alliance. They would do and aplish missions together.


    Before they started, Abigail and Ethan personalized and enhanced their characters by assigning weapons. Though Abigail used a new yer ID, she equipped her character with the same weapons she was using when she was still using her old ount.


    All her equipment and weapons were simr to her old ount. As she looked at her character, she couldn''t help but smile. It had been so long since thest time she yed this game. This game reminded her of her old friend.


    ''If he is alive... I wonder if he is still ying online games like this,'' Abigail mumbled to herself.


    Soon, Abigail and Ethan tried toplete missions together. They had to find the Mafia Boss and assassinate him. To aplish this mission, they had to raid and infiltrate the Mafia''s headquarters. Inside, they would face different challenges they should clear before facing off with the Mafia Boss and his elite men.


    The Mafia Boss elite men were strong opponents with high HP. The two were so focused on clearing the challenges that they failed to notice that someone already entered the yroom.


    Nathan came inside to check on them. He had just arrived and was looking for Abigail when Butler Li informed him that she was with young master, Ethan.


    From the outside, he could hear the sound of gunshots and the intense background musicing from the monitor and speaker. He could tell that the two were ying video games.


    He entered the room silently and traced his steps towards them. He stood behind them, watching them y. Nathan was surprised and stood frozen in his spot when his gaze fell on Abigail''sptop monitor.


    ''They are ying Mission XXX. That character... it looks familiar to me... and her moves... are simr to...''
