There is no point in doing something when you can still have it doing nothing.
Prince Andrew always thought so he never planned to usurp the throne. He plans to use his secret abilities and secret groups of extraordinary people after he successfully ascended the throne! He plans to expand Sky Empire's territory and unite it all under his absolute rule!
They said that usually, Emperors have to choose between their ambition and their happiness but his personal beliefs are:
Why choose if you can have it all?
You can be as evil as you want, just do not get caught!
Clean all the evidence so when you get caught, they cannot persecute!
If you cannot get it using good means, get it using evil means!
Others can never understand him but he is just being honest with himself and determined to get what he wants whatever it takes!
He is usually busy so his Imperial Brother and Beatrix are often seen together but when it comes to his Beatrix, no matter how busy his schedule is, he always finds time to visit her early in the morning or early in the evening. He wants to stay longer but his Imperial Father and Imperial Mother always forbid him!
He loves Beatrix so much so waiting for his Beatrix to reach eighteen seems very long! There is one time he submitted a petition to his Imperial Father and Imperial Mother to let him marry Beatrix when she reached fourteen because, in some history of the imperial family members, there are incidents that the girls marry as early as fourteen years old or as soon as they menstruate but they rejected his petition saying that her marriage age should be eighteen in accordance to the last will of Beatrix's paternal grandfather, the deceased General.

Tsss... Damn Old General!!!
He secretly thought after the Emperor and Empress rejected his petition to marry Beatrix earlier.
Yesterday morning, he was not able to see her because she went to the General's Mansion very early. He waited during lunchtime but she still did not come back to the imperial palace. In the evening, she seemed to sleep early probably tired when she visited the General's Mansion. He reluctantly leave and decided to come back tomorrow. He will just read military books to pass his free time tonight...
It is finally morning and he finished preparing himself. A usually prepared but not obvious that he prepared kind of look! He wants to tell her that his Imperial Father and Imperial Mother bestowed him a large and beautiful mansion. He wants to ask her if she would like to go with him tomorrow to check it and help him decide what beautiful things should be placed there because that mansion will be their home for several years until they ascend to the throne as Emperor and Empress. When he arrived in her courtyard, he immediately noticed that her maids seems very afraid and panicking!
"What is happening here? Something wrong with Beatrix?" He asked.
"Your Highness Prince Andrew, Lady Beatrix is missing! We cannot find her anywhere!" One of her servants reported.
When he heard it, his heart beats faster, and fear gripped him! He immediately ran inside her room and looked for her in every corner of her bedroom! When he did not find her, he looked for her in every corner of her courtyard! He did not notice that his carefully prepared look is now beginning to disentangle. He could not find her inside her courtyard so he immediately looked for her in his brother's courtyard! He immediately noticed his brother's servants are also afraid and panicking! His anxiousness and fear suddenly doubled!

"What happened here? Is something wrong with my Imperial Brother? Have you seen, Beatrix?" He immediately asked.
"To answer Your Highness Prince Andrew, we have not seen His Highness Prince Anders this morning and we did not see Lady Beatrix visit here!" A servant answered his query.
He immediately checked his brother's bedroom and entire courtyard but he could not find any signs of the two people! This time, his perfect and prepared look is ruined and but he did not notice! Only other people noticed, especially those people who are used to seeing him so composed and regal!
Prince Andrew reported to his Imperial Father and Imperial Mother that his Imperial Brother and Beatrix are missing! Like him, they were also very surprised and worried! In the whole morning, the whole palace ground was turned upside down to look for the two missing important people. In the afternoon, the General's Mansion was now informed when they could not find them inside the palace!

Courier
Zoe Blanco moved to New York after fleeing the small town she grew up in and the Purity Church that controls it. The Church believes in keeping humanity pure. This means none of the NanoPCs known as Frames or any other cybernetics that most of the rest of the world uses and enjoys everyday.

Couriers transport data and on occasion small objects for anyone willing to pay the price. Secured delivery is guaranteed and no questions are asked.

New York's criminal underground uses couriers for similar reasons. This gives the hundreds of couriers in NYC steady work. After weeks of not finding a job while living with her aunt and cousin, Zoe turns to her slicing skills to steal credits from the Purity Church and turns to the mob so she can get a loan to pay for the internal secure storage space a courier needs and a frame for herself. After making an unlicensed run or two, Zoe finds employment with a transport company and truly starts her life as a courier. This story is a mix of light scifi, cyberpunk, slice of life, a dash of action, and a smidge of fantasy. Slicing is what hacking is called in this story. Credits are currency in this story.
