    Chapter 14- Akilah Got Too Much Time On Her Hands




    Akilah was all about seclusion, and security.  Her three-story, split level house had cameras, guards and dogs surrounding the perimeters.  Before her gates would even open, she punched in a code. She had every reason to be so isolated. She had grown up in Compton, and her house would always get broken into. She had gotten accepted to Cal State Northridge on a mathematics/science scholarship. Akilah enjoyed taking things apart and putting  them back together. She ended up double majoring in computer science/electronics with a business minor. She could hack into any computer, create any kind of software, and even erase and add files on any database.  She started out working a six-figure corporate job, but she had always dreamed of owning and operating a nightclub for sensible, career people.
    Kamikaze was Akilah’s pearl of success, and Reyjah was her goldmine. “I feel like I just walked into the Jetson’s house,” said Deuce Bigalow. “I made all of these gadgets that you see,” said Akilah. “I even built those computers.”  She pointed to a little study room that was  crammed with very elaborate-looking computers. “So what’s the plan?” asked Kate. Everyone sat down on Akilah’s futuristic looking, black sofa.  Her whole house screamed “Sci-fi!”.  “I found out that Miss Julia Chang’s father is the owner of  Chi-Tek Interprises.” “Isn’t that an electronics corporation?” asked Sheila. “That’s right,” said Akilah. “And I used to be vice president of the Santa Monica branch.” “Meaning that have the hookup?” said Derrick, “I got more than the hookup,” said Akilah proudly. “I know Mr. Chang’s e-mail file like the back of my hand.” “Okay, so what comes next?” asked Midori. “Julia told me that if her dad found out all her dirty dealings, there would be hell to pay,” said Reyjah.  “Someone could “accidentally” send an edited version of their little porn video to Mr. Chang, as well as a copy to ‘Mistress’.”  “Where is the video?” asked Sheila. “Isn’t it back at the  salon?” “Actually, I have it here in my purse,” said Kate pulling the video out of her leather Coach bag.  She handed it to Akilah. “This tape has been recorded over, I can tell, and there is probably some other dirty deeds on it as well,” she said.  “Salvador and I will go back to the hospital,” said Arianna. “We’d better head back, too, Deuce, “ said Kate. “This operation is too delicate for us.” “I’ll be on the look out for Darlene.” “Thanks, girl,” said Reyjah giving her a hug. “Let me get the door for you,” said Akilah. “My security system is highly sensitive.”

    Akliah had an intricate set up in her basement. She had built a supercomputer with Internet access, as well as a DVD, MP3, and Scanner system. She had also built VCR’s to accommodate her creation.  “I have been working on his time for 5 years. Even before Al Gore claimed to have “invented” the Internet, I was already creating web pages and interactive software. The joys of working for the Pentagon.” Akilah hit a switch on the wall, and her creation seemed to come alive. “Dang,” said Derrick.  Akilah sat at her supercomputer. “You worked for the Pentagon.” “Yeah, I was an operations intern. So many secrets…” “You little hacker, you!” said Ms. Holden patting her on the shoulder. “You are too kind, Ms. Holden,” said Akilah.  Akilah booted the website for Chi-Tek Interprises. Midori and Sheila stared in awe. “My goodness,” said Reyjah. There were so many numbers and symbols, her eyes began to hurt. “Okay, here is his daughter’s profile…Julia…her real name is Gi Li Chang….Oh my goodness!” said Akilah “What?” said Ms. Holden. “She just turned 17, the girl is underage!” Everyone laughed.  “Reyjah, put the tape in that VCR over there and play it. Akilah hit some buttons and produced a blank screen. The video began to play.  “See how it’s fuzzy, this video’s been recorded over. Akilah changed the frequency and hit a few more buttons. The scene stopped and revealed a scenes that had been recorded over. “I thought once you recorded over something, it was lost forever,” said Derrick. “It’s lost only when you don’t have the right equipment,” said Akliah. “Ladies and gentlemen, we have a Rohypnol orgy including a minor, in a topless bar.” “Wait, I see prostitution right there,” said Sheila pointing to the computer screen.  “Julia’s exchanged money with that guy for sex.”  “And there’s Darlene doing something raunchy with that guy,” said Midori. “This is so disgusting!” said Reyjah. “But it’s evidence, there’s Rohypnol all over this!!” said Akilah.  Alikah resumed back to the homemade portion of the video. “I can’t watch this, again,” said Reyjah turning into Derrick’s embrace. “Wait a minute, there’s a powdery substance on Julia’s tongue ring,” Ms. Holden noticed when Akilah zoomed in. “So Antoine was probably drugged when she kissed him at Mistress,” said Midori. “OOPs,”she added. “It’s okay, Midori,” said Reyjah. “It’s about to go down.” “Do you feel like performing tonight?” asked Akilah as she began her computer-generated editing. “That’s right, I forgot all about that,” Reyjah pulled out her cell phone. “Arianna, yeah, are you coming to my performance tonight?” “I know, you wanna beat Darlene’s ass, and trust me, you will have your opportunity tonight, we all will.”  “Reyjah, what are you doing?” asked Sheila. “Please don’t do anything crazy,” said Midori.  Akilah chuckled.

    “Is this Darlene?”  “Yes it is?” “Darlene, I want to give you Reyjah’s engagement band, you are the only woman for me….meet me at Kamikaze’s tonight?” “Of course, I will, Antoine darling!”
