"The Van"

“The Van”

I was playing on the Hypixel network when I was unexpectedly kicked for ‘blacklisted modifications’ or so the IP ban message read. I was going to rage about this injustice, when I happened to look out my bedroom window. I saw a van parked across the street. The letters, ATnT were sloppily printed on the side of the van, as if you had given a 2nd grader a large paintbrush and bucket of blue paint. I wondered why AT&T would spell their own name incorrectly.

The window rolled down and I saw the driver, his face turned toward me, he was wearing a troll mask and a dark hoody. He lifted his hand to wave, which is when I saw he was wearing black leather gloves. I looked into the van past the driver, the passenger was hunched over a flickering laptop screen, the reflection of the screen was mirrored in his white anonymous mask. I could tell he was typing and even though I could not hear him, I saw its body shaking with laughter.

My parents were not home, they had gone to a spa for the evening and wouldn’t be back for hours. I was alone except for my dog, Dakota. I stroked her head and considered whether she might be good protection from the visitors out on the street.

I looked back at my computer screen the mouse was moving around the screen, I could see windows popping open and closing. The Mineplex server was now open on the screen and a hack client was loaded. I had never even seen this hacked client before- and I keep up to date with all of them. The moment I saw a guardian circling around my head on the monitor, the screen switched to a document that had all my usernames and passwords listed. The passwords were not just for Minecraft, it listed bank and other accounts. They copied all the information. I grabbed my mouse and punched the space bar on my keyboard- I had no control!

As I watched, the screen shifted over to roblox and signed on to my account. I saw them link my parents bank account, they drained the money buying 100,000 robux. Then the screen changed and all the robux disappeared into a different account.

The wallpaper on my desktop changed to the Roblox Logo and the mouse stopped moving.

I heard tires squeal and the van pulled away, on to grief the next person.

I do not know what or who this hacker is or where they may strike next.
