Chapter 1 Los Angeles, California Tuesday, 10:53 pm 2009
“Yes, Bragman, that will do very well,” Andrew Long types into the secret chat program.
“I’m sure it will, Kaizer.”
“I can get into the school system with this baby. Straight A’s, here I come!”
“Hey can you change my grades too?”
"Sure, why not? I can give Michael the Jock F’s while I’m at it!”
"Sweet! Thanks so much Kaizer!”
"NP. Logging off... night.”
"Night."
Andrew Long pushed his chair away from his new, high-tech computer and stood up. Boy it sure felt good to know he would be getting straight A’s for the last semester. He new it was illegal, but that didn’t bother him at all. He had been doing illegal things since the day he could use the mouse.
Andrew walked over to his bed and threw himself on it. Ah, that felt good. He had been tired all day since he stayed up late the previous night. He needed all the rest he could get, Tomorrow’s the big day! he thought his great anticipation. He had the End of Level math test to take, though the only reason he cared about the test was because he could brag to his friends about his perfect scores.
Andrew Long dozed off within seconds, leaving his thoughts hanging in the air.
LA High Wednesday, 9:15 am
Now let’s head down to the computer lab to take our end of level test,” Mr. Larsen, the math teacher, said, “wait, Andrew, stay here for a second I need to talk to you.”
Uh, oh, does he know about my project? If his teacher knew, Andrew had every reason to be worried. Considering they were taking the tests on the computers this year, maybe his teacher knew he could hack the test, not as if he planned on it though.
“I told you, I go by Kaizer. It’s my nickname, I don’t like Andrew.”
Mr. Larsen hesitated, then said, “It’s part of the school policy not to call kids by their nicknames. Anyhow, I need to talk to you. The principal has told me that you were causing problems yesterday.” Whew, he doesn’t know “He told me that you were bugging the substitute teacher while I was gone,” Mr. Larsen began pacing the floor, as he always did while lecturing, “you know I don’t tolerate things kinds of things, Andrew.”
Mental Note: Don’t throw M&Ms at subs.
“What do you think the punishment should be?” This guy sounds like a first grade teacher! “You know you will be punished for this, what do you want? After school suspension? Lunch suspension for a few days? Do I need to write you up to the office and let the principal decide what your punishment should be?”
Kaizer squirmed as he thought about his choices. After school suspension is out of the question, I have big plans going down after school. Lunch suspension might be okay... but I can’t discuss my hacking plans with Bragman. Or I could choose to let the office decide my fate, unless I can think of anything else.
Mr. Larsen stopped pacing and stared right at Kaizer, “Well?”
Kaizer could feel a small bead of sweat run down his face. Normally he wouldn’t get nervous in a situation like this, but something about Mr. Larsen gave him the creeps. The pressure was on. What should he do?
“Write me up.” he blurted out, “let the principal decide my fate.” Might as well take my chances.
Mr. Larsen seemed surprised, “Are you sure that’s what you want?”
Am I sure? Do I want the unknown, or should I choose my cup of poison?
“Yes I’m sure.” The unknown will do.
“Ok, head to the computer lab and take the test. You better hurry, your behind on time.” Mr. Larsen walked to his desk and got out the dreaded pink slip, and started writing Kaizer up.
Kaizer headed out of the room and down the hall towards the computer lab. He hoped the random punishment would not interfere with his after school plans. He needed to change his grades as soon as possible. Ug, time to get 100% on my test-
“Hey, watchya doin’ Drew, skippin’ out on class by roamin’ the halls?” It was Michael, the school idiot. Michael planted his feet so he was right in front of Kaizer.
“First off, my name’s Kaizer. Second, I don’t skip class like you, I’m going to take a test in the computer lab. Now get outta my way!” Kaizer shoved Michael and walked past him.
“Hey, don’t go pushin’ me around, you hear! I’ll get my gang and you’ll wish you hadn’t even talked to me!” Michael snorted as he watched Kaizer walk into the computer lab.
“Hey, don’t go pushin’ me around, you hear? I’ll get my gang and you’ll wish you hadn’t even talked to me!” Michael snorted as he watched Kaizer walk into the computer lab.
Man, that kid’s an idiot. Kaizer sat down at the “bad computer” because it was the only one left. The “bad computer” was supposedly slower than all of the rest, but Kaizer didn’t think so; he actually didn’t mind using it. He could do whatever he wanted on it without anybody caring to check it’s online history. Kaizer was always careful when he was on computers though; he didn’t want any snotty kids see that he could do whatever he wanted.
He logged on using his custom user name and password that he made himself. He hated the usernames that the schools gave them, they were always just a bunch of random letters and numbers.
He then opened up the core test and started taking it.
Chapter 2 Area 51, Nevada Wednesday 12:20 pm
“Sir, we have another case.”
“What is it this time?”
“A strange artifact, sir, found on the coast of Chile.”
“File a report, tell me all about it.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Thank you Agent Strate.”
Case Report: Strange Artifact
A strange artifact was found off the coast of Chile by a young girl. The local newspaper had it on the front page by the next morning. From the description the newspaper gives, the artifact is a metal tablet with strange symbols on it. The young girl by the name of Abiliana took it in to a University Professor and had it examined. The professor could not figure out what the language of the writing was. Abiliana still has possession of the strange artifact. It has been dubbed “Alien” by the locals; which is why Area 51 has interest. If it proves to be nothing but an ancient language, we will turn it back to the girl.
Kaizer’s House Wednesday 3:53 pm
“I’m home!” Kaizer shouted as he walked into the front door. He slipped his muddy shoes off and ran up the spiral staircase to his room. He was met by his only sibling, Jackson, his younger brother. “Hi, Kaizer!”
Jackson was eight years old. Kaizer considered him fairly annoying, but he hated it when his brother went into his room. “I always tell you not to come in here! This is my room! My stuff! You do not have permission to be in here! Get out!”
“Okay, okay, sorry. How was your big ole tenth grade End of Level testing? Mine was as easy as pie!” Kaizer’s little brother looked up at him.
“It was probably easier than yours, now get going!” He watched his little brother’s brown floppy hair as he bounced out of the room. Man, do those kids have to bounce everywhere?
Kaizer felt is own rough black hair. He liked it, he thought it gave him a “cool” look; even better, his blue eyes matched his hair perfectly.
Kaizer sat down at his computer after locking his bedroom door. No time to waste. My parents will be home from work soon! Kaizer quickly opened his homemade program. He sat in silence while the program loaded and opened up; then he heard a beep.
The computer opened a small pop-up, “Bragman is now online.”
“Hey Kaizer, are you there?”
“Yes I’m here, I’m about to hack the school. Are you ready for A’s?”
“Of course I am! This is awesome! How exactly do you hack the school though?”
“Long process I’ll tell you all about it later, for now I gotta hurry and do it, I don’t want my snoopy parents hanging around.”
“Okay.”
Kaizer then took out a piece of paper with some letters on it. He had been watching one teacher log in every time he could, eventually leaving him with some random letters and numbers to work with. We quickly typed them into the program and hit “Hack.”
The program now flashed combinations of the random letters and numbers Kaizer had entered. It whizzed through trying every password possible to log into the school system- as a teacher.
Kaizer wasn’t worried about a password overflow system; normally these systems blocked all passwords after five wrong ones, but Kaizer had checked it out already, to find no such systems.
The computer made a small beep noise and flashed a green light on the corner of the screen. “Bingo.” I’m in.
“Hey Bragman, I made into the system as a teacher from here I can figure out how to get on the administrator page, that’s where I will alter the password.”
“Awesome, keep going!”
Kaizer searched through the school system, he had never done it as a teacher though, this was a first. He tried all links that looked like they could get him where he needed to go. Nothing. He then clicked on the top right hand corner of the screen, sometimes there were secret buttons there, in this case, there was!
A small pop-up window came up with User Name and Password text fields.
{~~~Latest Update~~~}
Now the hard part. He had only seen a teacher using this pop-up once, and he had gathered what letters he could before the teacher hit Submit.
L - B - E - A - K - S - T
Those were the magic letters Kaizer had gathered. He didn’t know about a password overflow system on this log in screen, so he couldn’t use his homemade password cracker program. He had to get it right.
Kaizer’s mind was racing! What is it? beak tsl? T.S.L. are the initials of my math teacher.... No this can’t be it. basket l? That doesn’t have to do with anything. But most passwords don’t have to do with anything! He felt his hand start to tremble on the mouse. He knew he had to get this right, but probably not on the first try. If this system has an overflow system, it wouldn’t be that strict.
Kaizer typed in the teachers username and typed “basketl.”
Password Denied. It was worth a shot.
Think! Think! What could it possibly be? Wait! Basketball! That’s one word with all of the letters! The teacher just used the b and l twice!
Kaizer typed in “basketball.”
Password Denied. Crap!
Just then the screen froze for a split second, to most people this would not be considered a problem, but Kaizer’s computer was super high-tech, it did not just freeze without a reason... a good reason.
“Kaizer I’m home!” Uh-oh Mom’s home! “Kaizer dear? Where are you? I need to talk to you!” His mom was shouting from downstairs.
“One minute! I’m kind of busy, can I talk to you later!” Kaizer had to figure out why his computer glitched. Then he saw it. His curser moved on his screen. Not far, about a centimeter, but it moved nonetheless.
Somebody had taken over Kaizer Long’s computer.
