A week later, Sophia and Aiden had made up, and Kamal was terrified that Aiden would want revenge. Instead, he was offered a job as a freelancer. Kamal agreed to work for Aiden in exchange for visas to bring his parents to Earth.<ref name="work_aiden">[[Axon Clips Chapter 2]]</ref> | A week later, Sophia and Aiden had made up, and Kamal was terrified that Aiden would want revenge.

The next week, Kamal invited Sophia over for dinner, claiming that they were only friends. However, he would never try to cook a whole chicken for just a friend. While Kamal may be a genius hacker, he is a terrible cook.<ref>[[Media:butter_flavored.ogg|butter_flavored.ogg]]</ref> After he ruined the chicken, they went out for pizza. He became aware of his growing feelings for Sophia, but decided it wouldn't be right to act on them.<ref name="three" /> | The next week, Kamal invited Sophia over for dinner, claiming that they were only friends.

For his first job, Kamal was to help catch a group of graduate students who were cheating at a casino. Once he figured out how they were doing it, casino security threw out the card-counter without letting the others know. Then Kamal hacked into their line and, disguising his voice as the card-counter, made the cheaters lose all their winnings. The casino owner Mr. F, convinced him to string them along, saying that he was in for 30% of the take. He was paid in poker chips because the value was high, and they didn't want to leave a trail. When he attempted to play blackjack on his way out, he was informed that he couldn't use any of his chips because the table had a $10,000 limit.<ref>[[Axon Clips Chapter 5]]</ref> | For his first job, Kamal was to help catch a group of graduate students who were cheating at a casino.
