The King of City

3 New Character---Corrine Lewis, aka Athena

“It seems that she is meeting with a man.” Athena said to the microphone. 

“Who are the men, do you know them?” Asked the voice on the other side.

“I don't know, one of them doesn't seem to be from here. I must go, they are leaving the place.” Athena ended the conversation.

Athena has been in charge of finding the whereabouts of Blackwing's men in Lucien for years. She had tried to catch the members of that transnational criminal gang that increasingly frightened the world and hadn’t been executed, a situation that greatly frustrated her. because she has a complete delegation of Lucien International Crime Bureau (LICB) fully specialized in that criminal group without achieving satisfactory results.

“I have been able to take some pictures.” Athena said upon arriving at the LICB offices to deliver the evidence gathered from the espionage work that has just ended.

“I hope you will inform me tomorrow of the identity of the men in that photo, otherwise, I’ll fire you, gentlemen.” Athena said threateningly as she was overwhelmed by having no answers about the criminals.

“Roger that, Director.” the men in charge of the intelligence work answered in unison.

After that, Athena decided to go home in order to get some rest and prepare for the intelligence work the next day. However, it wasn't long until she received a call.

“Corrine, my daughter, how are you?” Said the voice on the other end of the phone.

“Hi dad, I just got home from work.” 

“You must be exhausted. I’m going to cut it to the straight.” Said Corrine's father.

“I’m listening, Dad.”

“Daughter just wanted to tell you something,” said Corrine's dad,

“The Republican Party is extremely interested in learning about the actions that Lucien International Crime Bureau has taken to find out the whereabouts of Blackwing members. They want to promote a proposal to reduce the LICB budget because the organization hasn’t been able to bend that criminal organization and invest it. in other things and I don't want that to happen.”

 She was told by his father who had been a member of the Lucien Republican Party for more than twenty years.

Corrine was surprised by the news her father had just given her, she had been working too hard to find clues that would lead her to Blackwing so that they would not recognize her work.

“Father, you cannot allow that to happen!” Corrine replied exalted, “I’m close to finding a clue that will allow me to get in touch with those criminals.” Corrine lied because she was still not sure that the photo she had taken a few hours before would take her with a Blackwing member.

“Okay daughter, you have to achieve something as soon as possible.” Corrine's father insisted.

“Sure, will do.” Corrine said it in a confirmative attitude. 

That call had only made Corrine more uneasy, so she gave up resting and devoted herself to reviewing all the data that the countries of Lucien and Frederic had collected about the possible hiding places of Blackwing in order to try to find the clue that could lead her to them, after all, she couldn’t allow his reputation to be destroyed because of cursed criminals who spread more and more throughout the world.

Corrine Lewis had always stood out for achieving her goals since she was very young she was educated by her father Eric Lewis to defend the interests of Lucien, therefore, the man was always strict with her in order to forge his character, perhaps for that reason, she always showed herself with a strong character before others. All her adolescence was surrounded by members of the Republican Party and high rulers who saw great potential in her, therefore they financed all her training in intelligence techniques and even hired private tutors to make her preparation impeccable. Her espionage and infiltration work was so magnificent that with only 20 years old she was already the director of the Lucien International Crime Bureau and was in charge of more than 15 divisions that watched over the internal security and sovereignty of Lucien. She decided her code name as Athena because she enjoyed studying ancient Greek history very much and somehow she identified with this goddess of wisdom, strategy, and just war.

In addition, the interior of LICB won the admiration of everyone because her intelligence made an unequal contrast to her beauty, she was sublime, she had long blonde hair that contrasted with her large turquoise blue eyes that seemed to reflect the color of the ocean, she also had a stunning figure as she liked martial arts since childhood training which helped sculpt her legs long and slim waist, a whole deity thought her companions. However, she didn’t have much luck in love because the men who approached her didn’t tolerate her strong character, so Corrine ended up abandoning them, after all, her priority was that LICB achieves the highest honors for her excellent work in Lucien.

After reading Blackwing's file all night, Athena didn't seem to find anything different from what she already knew and she felt really exhausted so she decided to have a coffee to continue with her analysis, with so bad luck that from how tired she was watered a little coffee in some documents.

Damn, that was missing ... a disaster!” She exclaimed a little angry at that just happened.

She decided to go for a towel to clean the papers that had been soiled with the drink, what she never imagined is that this incident would help her discover a detail that she had ignored all along. While cleaning, she realized that the bar in which he had seen the guys that night had a strange detail to the side that at first glance seemed like a simple repair, Athena found it quite strange because the place had been built for a very short time, so she decided to go immediately to the place to inquire, she didn’t care that it was four in the morning.

Once on the site, she noticed that a courier truck arrived at the place and a man left a package, for now, nothing was unusual, so she decided to get a little closer. Once closer she could hear something.

“We have to deliver new orders in an hour!” One of the men shouted at the wall that she had seen in the photograph.

Athena thought it crazy that this man was talking to a wall so she waited for him to leave to get closer. As she could, she scraped the paint off that wall a bit and found a small pipe going down there, so she broke the pipe with a rock she found there. Her surprise was so great that she found inside that pipe some small microphones along that pipe, however, the day was already clear and if she was still there she could raise many suspicions, she decided to return to the bar at night with the excuse of drinking some drinks.

When night came, Athena entered the bar and realized that this wall overlooked the kitchen of the bar, so she decided to put a hair on the drink she had ordered, in order to go make the claim to the cooks for that incident and blames those responsible for preparing the drinks, when she entered the kitchen she prepared to make a great scandal.

“I FIND HORRIBLE THAT THIS KIND OF INCIDENTS HAPPEN HERE!” Athena yelled.

“Miss, I'm sorry about what happened, I'll serve you another drink…” replied bartender.

“I DEMAND TO TALK TO THE MANAGER!” Athena yelled again, getting the boy to leave immediately and leave her alone in the kitchen. Once the boy in the kitchen left, Athena entered through a door that led to a level below, as she walked she heard a kind of machine noise, to her surprise once she went further, she could see a large machine printing out what looked like fake IDs, so she pulled out her cell phone and snapped a few photos before quickly going up to the kitchen.

She concluded then that the bar was only a facade to cover the place where they forged official documents, she just needed to know who the suspicious men were there the night before and perhaps that would be the most complicated part.
