《Prankster》Prank 8: Smile for the camera
Advertisement
When Penny woke up it was morning, which was strange because she had gone to bed in the morning.
-A.I.C.A. how long was I asleep?-
-22 hours and 42 minutes, Penny. You looked like you needed the rest, so I didn’t wake you.-
-Any missed calls, deliveries or news of interest?-
-You have 2 missed calls. One from I.D. Jenifer and one from I.D. realtor. There were no deliveries. The news with the most impact on your future is that it will rain today and tomorrow. The next new of importance is the global hacking of every TV network in the world during their primetime. The news networks report that the authorities in each country, Interpol FBI and the CIA still don’t know who is responsible.-
“Rain? Thursday I chose my new place, Friday I spend hacking news networks and Saturday and Sunday I was in another dimension, so today is Monday, and the real estate agent probably called to tell me I can move into the new building. So rain huh?”
-‘Yawn’, call my real-estate agent and schedule a meeting at my new building. Then call Jenifer and connect her to my glasses. And while you are at it optimize the form of the glasses for everyday use, increase peripheral vision and start optimizing the FuBoBuS. I have to come up with a better projects name.-Penny got out of bed, put on the glasses from her costume, then went on to do her morning business. A little after she exited the bathroom she was connected to her phone and heard the melodic voice on the other side.
-Hello, Penny, how are you doing?-
-Hey, Jenny, sorry I didn’t call back earlier. Had to work two 24 hour days, so yesterday I slept through the whole day and night. What was your call about?-
-Oh, you know checking if the number you gave me was the real thing, wanting to ask how you were doing. The usual stoker things. But now I have got to ask, what is keeping you so busy? Didn’t you say last time that your last gig was over and you were between jobs?-
-I have a few projects I am working on trying to earn some money until my shop opens. I am also waiting on a patent so I can start manufacturing some things, but that takes years. No wonder companies reuse old components in most of their products. They are probably also waiting on patents.-
-Actually, Penny, you could start manufacturing and selling your product right after you submit your patent for approval. While it is pending approval no one else can steal your idea. You didn’t know that?-
-Hey I am a product designer, not a lawyer or business major. I invent things for other companies and let them deal with the aftermath. It is hard doing things for yourself when you have to guess stuff and search for the rest. I just didn’t think to search for that particular thing.-

-Calm down, Penny. I can help you with business advice from time to time. Just call me and we can go out sometime and discuss things over lunch.-
-Thank you, Jenny. You don’t know how much help you have been. I will talk to you soon. Bye.-And like that, Penny ended the conversation and then disconnected the call. That little nugget of information was important, because now she had a new project to implement and a suit to sell.
-A.I.C.A. tell the AI’s to create a new AI optimized for system infiltration. I need to enter a few government databases without them knowing I was inside. Then I want you to find everything there is to know about every identity document, certificates, diplomas and other such documents and what I will need to forge them. Finally I want you to order the items from this list and the forging materials anonymously and have them delivered to a discreet location.-
“If I want to sell the suit to the military I will probably have to start a company and get certificates for defense contracts. But since my identity is just a civilian designer who owns a joke shop and still hasn’t finished her PhD’s, there is no way I will be taken seriously. So I will have to create a new identity, take a bunch of photos and forge a birth certificate, driver’s license, library card plus expired copies, then create a tax plan for this fictional person, internet history, phone bill history, and then infiltrate every agency in America and disseminate the information in their archives both electronic and paper. Not to forget education, photobooks, certificates, diplomas, grade history, college applications and exam papers. At least this persona will have all her PhD’s couple of years sooner than me.”
All she had to do would take her days of preparation and a couple of more days to execute. The one good and easy thing here was that the knowledge from the prankster and the prankster magic itself contained counterfeit methods that once deployed, only a god could discern if they were fake. The hard part was all the research. She had to find teachers and their signatures, what books she had to have borrowed from libraries, invent and practice new signature, come up with a background story and fill taxes dating back years. The AI’s would help a great deal, but not immediately, right now, she had other things to do. It was moving day.
Penny entered her office, lately turned laboratory and looked at all the stuff inside. She needed a bigger pocket. Pocket dimension that is. So she activated the spell and injected more magic power inside it slowly growing the pocket dimension. All the meditation, tai chi and magic she was doing every day were slowly helping her grow her magic capacity and right now she had one third more power than in the beginning. When she decided it was big enough she had a dimension that was 5x5x5 meters and I am not going to bother writhing that in feet. Moving all her equipment from the office she moved onto the living room and transported her game consoles, monitors, DVD player with her TV attached and the mountain of DVD’s still unopened and in their delivery box. She moved everything she owned to her pocket dimension and then left the building. Her lease agreement was expiring at the end of the month, so now was a good time to move.

Jenny met with her real-estate agent at the building she was renting and started signing the documents for the new lease. At least here she could have the space needed to work properly and not be forced to work as the people say stuck in a can of sardines. First she went to the loft and unloaded her entertainment systems in a large room she would from now on refer to as the Dimensional Travel Room, or DTR for short. Next she hooked up all the AI’s in their appropriate places and then unloaded her computer and fabrication equipment. This was now her new home and workspaces. The shop was going to wait until she was finished making her new identity.
The Ai’s started their research and calculations and for the next few days Penny was busier than ever before. She still had time to sleep and exercise, but the rest was spent working on the counterfeit documents. On the third day after starting she teleported to the place where her items were delivered and picked them up. Then she made a disguise from silicon molds, painted them, fit them and glued them to herself, made colored contact lenses with the Big Hero 6 printer, then after taking photos, she carefully took the disguise off and made herself younger to make the fake photo albums and everything else. She had to take photos with different cameras matching, where she could, the original camera of the photographer that took the pictures she was trying to fake.
When she was done with all the documents, internet history and everything else, she began teleporting around the country. First she visited the hospital she was born in and used her newest AI to enter her new identity’s birth records in the hospital computer not forgetting to put in the occasional vaccination and illness on records. She had a complete medical history for her new identity. Next she visited the local kindergarten and inserted new records here as well and used some magic to transfer images to group photos. Next she had to visit the homes of the people in these photos and insert copies of the fake in their albums. She was going to be very thorough with her job. What followed were a few schools and local libraries. Their records were modified, and every book she supposedly borrowed found in it new names at the dates she borrowed them. After that she visited the colleges she was studying and her records found their way in their archives as well, including her dissertations on all the subjects she was currently studying. After the colleges followed the tax bureau where all her taxes were paid according to the new records. The insurance agency that followed also wasn’t a hassle. Now the DMV, that took some navigation, you know what I mean, everything there was super congested. The only problem she had was when she was trying to insert her information into the NSA and CIA databases. She had to search the whole building before she found all their server rooms. With all her manual work finished, she signaled her AI’s to flood the internet with her data, so she could have an internet and browser history. She now had new e-mail, Facebook, Instagram and all other accounts. With this final step she had an iron clad new identity that could even pass a CIA authentication. When she started her company and the governmental agencies do a background check on her, she would come out squeaky clean.
When Penny got home she looked at her Assembly Line app and sighed. She had technology, but didn’t have a distribution network for it. Tomorrow she would make an app and work on some other ideas to make money for the establishment of her new company. She could of course visit a post-apocalyptic Earth and go through Fort Noks, but where was the fun in that? Hard work was simply much more rewarding in the end.
-A.I.C.A. help me make a new app. I need it to have a sound search capabilities and comparison and audio recording capabilities. There are times when a song is stuck in your head but you can’t remember its name. This app will record you humming the melody and then search for a match. There must be a margin for error in case the singer is tone deaf or there are more than one similar song. Let’s say when the results come we present the top 5 matches. I will call the app Stuck in your head. Also check to whom we can market the app. We need money after all. Also see if the AI’s can come up with cheaper and more reliable method to make graphene. We can’t afford to pay for someone else’s patent in our product.-
And with that conversation finished, Penny went to bed for some well-deserved rest. Tomorrow was going to be just as busy if not even more so.
