Snippet #2691350

Akemi Horigome was sitting up on her bed in her room. The girl had read and reread the email sent to her over and over again, hoping to whatever god was up there that this was just a sick joke. But the more she read about it, the sicker she got over the idea that someone knew everything about her past and about what she was doing. If that ever got exposed, her social standing would be over at school and her parents could very well make her homeless again. Her blood boiled a little. Who the hell was this person to think they could ruin her life like that? How did they even get the hacking capabilities in the first place? She juat growled a bit to herself as she read the clues yet again.
The person who has your secret hides a clue in their past.
"Jesus, can you possibly be more vague asshole?" To her, that could have meant anything. They were abandoned by their mother, they were homeless at one point, they were unloved; god help her if that clue was that they lied because almost everyone does it. "Alright, to hell with that. Who else do I have to watch out for?"
The person who owns the secret in your file leads a secret life.
Akemi didn't know if she wanted to scream, cry, laugh or break her VRMax right then and there. What the fuck did that even mean? Did it mean that they did nothing fun or exciting in their life? Did it mean they had a happy life? Did it mean that they were so ordinary that they wouldn't stand out. Either way, Akemi burned with anger at the idea that someone with an infinitely happier life than hers was learning everything about her secret. She felt okay with killing them for sure. However, an interesting idea struck her. Sure, she could kill that person and get her secret back or talk to the other secret holder and convince them to give her secret back, but who was to say if the mastermind wanted the game to end after that. For all she knew, she could be dragged back in at any time.
"The second I get my secret back, I'm going to kill the fucker who took it from me in the first place."
After uttering that promise, she decided to take her mind off of the game and think for a little bit. Looking in her wallet, she had quite a bit of cash from her latest amazing grade. Of course, she got someone else to do it for her but she still got the money. She figured some retail therapy could do her a lot of good to clear her mind. As she thought that, she walked over to the big mall in Hanamura, taking a break from doing some thinking on her own for once. She was checking out the latest fashions in a clothing store next to the cafe. She figured after getting some dresses, she would indulge herself with some mocha. But for now, she tried on clothing.
