"Don't touch me."
"Red I-"
"You still don't even know my name!" Anna whips around pulling her t-shirt over her head. "How drunk were we?"
"Actually I wasn't really drunk..."
"Yet you slept with me? You don't even know my name and you slept with me! Who the hell do you think you are?" Anna yells as him. Marcello goes to answer but she holds her hand up to stop him. "Forget it! Don't answer that. I'm going. If I ever see you again it will be too soon!" Anna shouts storming out of his bedroom.
Anastasia eventually find her way out of Marcello's enormous house. She is saddened and happy that Marcello didn't not follow her. As she makes her way out onto the street she realises she left her bag behind. Anna curses at herself but doesn't turn back. She can cancel her cards, her phones are replaceable and she can always buy a new bag.
Marcello watches the beautiful woman leave from his bedroom window. Never had a woman yelled at him like that. Except for his mother. That is her Italian blood he thinks to himself. Moving away from the window something catches his attention at the foot of the bed. A bag. Her bag.
Marcello ignores his mother's voice in the back of her telling him not to look through her bag. His pulls out her wallet and immediately looks for her licence.
"Anastasia Carmichael." He reads aloud. Taking his phone off the night stand he calls one of his men. "Find me everything on Anastasia Carmichael." He barks into the phone before hanging up.
"Who was the girl?" Luciano Morretti, Marcello's brother enters the bedroom.
"Hacker who found your burner." Marcello snaps.
"Name?"
"Anastasia."

"Fiery hair."
"And personality."
"And the sex?" Luca asks overstepping his boundaries.
"Why are you here?" Marc snaps at his brother.
"Can't I come and see my big brother?"
"Luciano!"
"Fine. I here cause Ed is pissed at me. I needed to get out of the house."
"What did you do this time?"
"Nothing!"
"Tell me."
"I seriously did nothing. She is..."
"Yes?"
"She is pregnant." Luca says softly.
"Complimenti! I'm so happy for you!" Marcello hugs his little brother.
"So who is the girl really?" Luca asks.
"Anastasia Carmichael." Marcello replies.
"You like her?" Luca asks and Marcello just nods. Marcello's phone rings and the two stare at it for a moment. Marcello presses the phone to his ear.
"Morretti."
"Don, we found nothing."
"What do you mean nothing?"
"It is like she doesn't exist."
"I'm holding her drivers licence the girl exists!"
"All we found was a couple in Las Vegas. Anita and Jacob Carmichael. Two kids Anastasia and Charles. It says Charles died twelve years ago."
"That's her. That's Anastasia."
"But that's all there is. The girl vanishes when she turn fifteen. No trace of her."
"The parents, what about them?"
"Millionaires they own the Carmichael Grand on the Vegas strip."
"Good work. Thanks."
"No problem boss."
Marcello hangs up the phone. He throws it in the bed and Luca lets out a low whistle.
"Not the answer you were looking for?"
"They found nothing on her only her parents."
"How is that possible?"
"The girl is a hacker. That's how she found me. Did you know iPhones take photos throughout the day?"
"What?" Luca throws a pillow over Marcello's phone. "Are you serious?"

"Yep. Crazy right? How am I going to find her?"
"Why do you want to?"
"She left her bag I should return it." Marcello stares at his feet.
"It is more than that. I have seen countless women leave your bed since we moved to San Francisco never once have you tracked one of them down. You like this girl."
"She is indescribable." Marcello admits. "And she speaks Italian."
"Damn fratello! You have to marry this one. I have been with Eddison how long and the girl still can't understand a word."
"Go home to your wife Luciano."
"Go find you girl Marcello." Luca counters.

The Earth also changed drastically since the dungeons appeared, how could it not? These unknown, giant towers suddenly started spewing out hordes of fiends and monstrosities. Only The Machia were able to defend against these attacks on humanity. Countries were destroyed, safe-havens were build and then yet again destroyed. Eventually humanity adapted, like it always does. The economy was rebuild and centered around these new towers, these dungeons, the treasures they hold outweigh their dangers. Life is relatively safe again, for most at least… Read about Reo’s exploits, an immigrant from the Netherlands, as he tries to honor his dead parents and… find love? Establish a Guild?! Live the Ideal Harem life?!! BECOME PIRATE KING?!!! Okay maybe not that last one, but Reo will definitely leave his mark behind on this world full of mystery. This story features romance, comradery, an interesting power system and a post-apocalyptic world with amusing characters, what more do you want?! No seriously, I’m always open to constructive feedback. This story also displays my interpretation of a magic-coding-language (based on JAVA). Although knowledge about coding helps, you can also enjoy the story without it 😊.
