The Life Hacker System 11 The Morning After

Organising her thoughts, she proceeded toward the living room where Taka's family were waiting impatiently.

Replaying the events that had happened in Taka's room she couldn't help but feel happy yet also a little sad. The child known as Taka was a miracle. A miracle that was gifted with an intellect surpa.s.sing all yet at the same time cursed with a secret only he knew.

Now she knew his secret too.

Knowing all he was shouldering. She wanted to tell his parents but she knew she couldn't. He didn't want them involved.

Whatever he was planning, probably wasn't safe and was probably highly dangerous. Not to mention the comment Taka had made about himself being a monster. Obviously something bad was going to happen or had already, but for one reason or another Emily knew Taka would be fine.

Maybe because she knew the truth.

That Taka really was a monster. A monster in the sense that he was far beyond even the smartest person that had existed on earth. So much of a monster in fact that he made even Einstein seem like an idiot.

Still thinking about his mystical eyes and beautiful face she couldn't help giggling to herself. After filling Taka's parents in on what was going to happen, they agreed immediately. Being the poor family they were, they knew this would be an amazing opportunity for Taka's future. Not only that but they knew that the research inst.i.tute that Doctor Harper worked at was highly advanced and had near infinite funding from both the government and multiple private investors.

Emily told them she'd arranged everything already which surprised the Everlast's.

Though they wondered why the Doctor had taken such an interest in their son.

From what they knew Taka was an ordinary young lad, well that was if you took what happened a little earlier off the table that is.

Due to Taka's father s.h.i.+elding what had happened earlier from Taka's mother and merely explained to her that the 'blood' was paint she believed it. Well it was far easier to believe than the fact her 10 year old son had just killed thirteen men, not including the two Fen had killed.

With all arrangements made Emily bid the family farewell.

Returning from whence she came.

For the rest of the night no one bothered him.

Both he and Fen were able to sleep soundly.

-

Morning came.

Taka awoke only to fine Fen snuggled up to his face.

Sitting up slowly he gently stroked Fen's little head.

Feeling her head gently stroked she woke softly.

Noticing Taka sitting up and smiling all of her worries evaporated, with a jump she landed in his arms.

"Morning Taka"

"Morning Fen"

"Hungry"

"Hmm, me too. Let's go get breakfast."

With a nod the pair of them proceeded toward the kitchen.

Reaching the kitchen Taka realised his family were all already awake and in the middle of making a big breakfast.

Noticing Taka, his father smiled.

"You're awake?"

"Hmm, what's with the big breakfast?"

"Well you've got a big day ahead of you so we thought a big breakfast would keep you fed up longer and besides I'm sure Fen is hungry too?"

"Oh, I guess you're right."

With a brief pause he continued.

"Thanks for cooking for Fen"

His father nodded before looking at Fen.

"Son, you never said where you found her?"

Surprised by the sudden question.

"Oh right I never did, did I? I found her in the forest or more accurately she found me. She was being attacked by a pack of wolves. Obviously she couldn't defend herself so I saved her."

His father let out a sigh. While thinking to himself.

'Thankfully I asked him on my own, otherwise it would have been a nightmare if Becky and his mother found out'

Knowing what his son had done for the family, he wasn't surprised by this latest revelation.

"I'll speak to your mother about letting Fen stay"

"Really? You will?"

"Of course but you need to keep her under control. She obviously can't stand anyone but you."

"I understand Dad. . . . Thank you."

"Its fine already, she helped save us, even if those two don't know it, I do."

Finally sitting down to eat breakfast Taka asked Fen what she wanted which shocked his family.

After he asked she answered.

"Meat, meat, meat, meat!"

To everyone else all they heard was several barks but Taka laughed and simply pa.s.sed Fen some of the meat on the table which Fen proceeded to happily gobble up.

Stunned by the sight of him talking to Fen his families eyes nearly popped out of their heads.

His father was the first to regain composure, followed by Becky and then his mother.

Finis.h.i.+ng breakfast Taka realised he had no idea how he was getting to the research inst.i.tute Emily worked at.

He decided to ask his father.

"Hey, Dad did Doc tell you how I was getting there today?"

"Didn't she tell you?"

"Possibly but after everything that happened yesterday I think I may have forgotten"

"ahaha don't worry son Doctor Harper is sending a car to pick you up shortly"

"Really?"

Letting out a sigh of relief he realised that Emily had thought of everything.

Surprised by the sudden revelation.

A smile crept onto his face.

Minutes pa.s.sed the car arrived.
