Uncovering The Secrets of Addilyn University

1. YOU'RE ALYANNA, RIGHT?

"Make sure to give us an update every once in a while" My trainer instructed me after I finished putting my signature in the agreement form.

"Of course."

"Finish as fast as you can. We don't have enough time."

"I know"

He pulled up my belongings and placed it at the back of the Sedan. They temporarily handed me this car as part of my act.

"Someone will be there with you, you can trust the guy. He will pick you up after they drop you off." He pointed at my driver. "Another car will follow you since we will leave you with this." Tapping the black Sedan, he smiled at me. “You’re going to be fine. Always remember why you're here".

With the headquarters slowly disappearing on my sight, I tilted my head up as I sighed and composed myself.

I trained for years and this is my first big assignment, they won't hand it to me if they know I can't. I know they are aware of what drives me to take this mission, my dad.

I am the youngest agent in our organization, started when I was 14 and now I am 18, ready to put into action all those things I learned. Although I've been out doing some minor assignments, this is the first big one. I don't even know if I still am aware of how to be a student, or am I going to fit in? I need not to be visible so I can do my job easier. I dyed my hair brown and bought some shirts that are very much "common" in the society nowadays. I need to get this job done.

I woke up as my driver is unloading my baggage.

I went down the car and stared at this huge university standing in front of me. Colors were old brown, from what I can see here, it's newly painted. It has this old aura, a castle like style but somehow modernized with a huge clock and a tall flag standing proud at the top most part of the building.

"You're Alyanna, right?" Someone came from behind, tapping my shoulders. He's around 4 inch taller than me, I am 5'5 by the way, He's wearing a black slacks matching it with a white shirt and a black coat, he is a tanned skin, and has a nice blond hair. He pulled out something from his pocket, it's a little paper with a small writing inside. It's written "1704728", that's my code. So he's the guy that's going to pick me up and tour me inside.

"Name is Claude by the way. I'm here for 4 months now, and I must say, it's not easy." We hurried down to the lobby as he assisted me in my baggage. Suddenly, I felt suffocated, I am not used with so many people around me. As I make my way and pass them, I noticed some students doing their own thing. Some are with their books, some are with their phones, and some are staring at me as if they are going to eat me whole.

"We only have at least 800 students here, so they will notice if you are new. Don't mind them.”

 “How could I not?" He just replied with a light chuckle.

"May I see your class form?" "You still have an hour before your class starts.”

 “Let’s go."

He walked me to the school dormitory. Literally, he became my university tour guide. As he walked me around, he provided me all the basic information needed while I am here. We didn't talk about the mission or anything about our organization though. Truth to be told, I was amazed by how big the university is. Inside they have an Olympic sized pool, a gym, 4 story library, an oval, a theater, and they even have a university mall that I didn't even imagine would be possible. They have everything.

"There's your dormitory." He pointed at the building in front of me. "Wow. I thought it was another mall.”

I stared, dumbfounded.

He handed me my bags as he laughed. "Nope, that's where you're going to stay. If you need anything, I'm right there." He pointed at the next building. “That’s the male dormitory."

And he just turned his back at me. Just like that. “Wow. This place is huge."

As I opened the door, I was welcomed by the huge chandelier hanging at the high ceiling of the lobby. Is this really a dormitory or a hotel? Golden round tables occupy almost half of the space of the lobby, matched with a black sofas that completes the whole area. I walked to the left to reach the reception area and was asked basic questions as part of their identity check. As they handed me the keys, I realized there are no stairs, just elevator. “Please proceed to fifth floor." I hopped into the elevator and punched in the button 5. Whoa. There are 12 floors. This is too huge for 800 students.

I walked past different rooms until I reached mine. "514" I slid in the card key and I was shocked as I entered the room that's going to be my personal space for a couple of months. Is this a suite room or what? What I am seeing is a large comfort room to the left. It's complete, a bath tub, a shower, and everything else you need. The smell of what I think a soap is lingering in its four walls. I went out of the comfort room that is as large as my dormitory outside before I came in here. Opening another door, I reached the bedroom, it's very elegant in white and black. A king sized bed covered in black sheets, I vanity mirror in front of it and a mini couch by the end of the room. Oh don't forget the flat screen television hanging in the wall.

Everything feels new. The environment, even the people. I'm used to being with people older than me but now I have to mingle with these students and understand their dramas. I can't imagine myself, believe me. Yet I need to do this, I need to make friends, so I would not look too mysterious in their eyes. 

Wow, make friends. That is harder than my main mission.
