Chuck vs. The New Girl
Chapter 1: Priestly Leblanc.
"Oh this is.. cozy." The black haired girl looked around the apartment, her apartment. She had new neighbors, a new apartment, and a new life. She put her bags down, the apartment had two rooms, and huge living room, dining room and kitchen, smaller compared to her fathers house, which she had lived in all her 29 years. Yes she went to college, yes she had a job, however it had been easier to pay back her debt when living with her dad.
"Okay, don't forget. Your new name is Priestly Leblanc. You just moved here from New Mexico. You've got no family because they died in a car accident." The man, who looked like a moving person told her as all her stuff she was allowed and new items where placed in the house.
"I know." She sighed. "I'm guessing it never gets easier being in witness protection?" She asked the guy as she looked around.
"It will be tough, but hopefully you won't have to stay here forever. Remember, if anyone finds out or is suspicious you have to tell me." He told her. His blue eyes looked at her with pity, she looked away as he moved his hand through his brown hair.
The new Priestly Leblanc was a short girl 5'2", fair skin, slightly tanned, average weight, green eyes, and long black hair that curled in locks at the end. She moved around the house as the "moving" men looked around, then shortly afterward they left. Priestly was now alone.
She looked around the house. She had to laugh a little, a man did decorate. She had a nice flat screen T.V., and her room had the feeling of a man cave. She didn't mind, she would be watching a lot of T.V.
There was a knock on the door, Priestly jumped a little and walked to the door, looking outside and seeing a brown haired lady with a really good looking guy. She unlocked and opened the door carefully. The girl was holding a plate of brownies. "Hello." Priestly smiled, kind of nervous.
"Hi! I'm Ellie, and this is my husband Devon. We live just next door to you. Actually my Brother and his Fiance, Chuck and Sara live on the other side of you. We noticed you moving in and I figured you would want some sugar, and a welcome." The lady, Ellie smiled at her. Priestly couldn't help but smile back at them.
"I'm..." Priestly paused for just a second, keeping herself from saying Lacy, her real name. "Priestly. It's nice to meet you two! Thank you for the brownies. Would you like to come in?" She offered moving to the side. Ellie and Devon walked in the apartment. Priestly took the brownies and set them down on the coffee table, closing the door behind her.
"Are you here alone?" Ellie asked, noticing a lack of photo's, the house looked lonely.
"Uh, yeah. I thought I could use a change of scenery after my family, father, mother and brothers, died in a car crash." Priestly said solemnly. That may not have been true, but they had died.
Casey looked out the window, having noticed a new neighbor move into the last apartment that had been vacant for as long Casey had been in the area. He sighed, looked like he had another place he needed to bug. He noticed Awesome and Ellie go over there and go inside the house with the lady who answered the door.
He looked at her, thinking her to be short, but curvy. He could tell she was worried, or nervous. He closed his eyes and went back to sitting. He would bug her house when she left.
Priestly smiled at Ellie and Devon as they talked. She noticed he said awesome, a lot. Priestly laughed when they made some jokes, and an hour later they where back on their way home, which was only a few feet away. Priestly frowned and sat back in her apartment, alone. She felt so lonely now, no one was around, her family was dead, and she was in a completely different state from all her friends. She got the crap-tastic end of the deal.
"Okay. Insane. Now. I am going to go for a drive." The only good thing about this whole situation was that Priestly now owned a different car. Her old one was crapping out. Her new one was not the best, it was a 1995 Crown Victoria, Ford. She like her, the car was reliable. Of course, Priestly was superstisious, if you had some kind of technology it should have some kind of name or it craps out. So Priestly named her Carolina.
Casey watched at Priestly left, in a Crown Victoria. He watched to a moment, before grabbing some audio and video bugs and going to Priestly's apartment. He quickly got some bugs in her house and left in time for her to pull up, she was on her cell phone this time.
Priestly's guardian had called her. Maybe he found a good job for her, or something. She picked it up and started to head back to the apartment. "Hey, Priestly here."
"Priestly, good news. We found a place hiring. Bad news, its a Buy More." He told her the news flat out. She pulled into the parking area of the complex she lived in and sighed, taking the keys out of the ignition.
"A job is a job." She said, getting out of the car and locking the door. Her guardian sighed.
"I'm sorry I can't help you more. The money coming in from the trial, the insurance, the state, and th government is enough to pay for everything while you are in witness protection." He told her. She watched as a man dressed in a black button up shirt and blue jeans walked to the apartment diagonal from hers.
"No it's fine. It will give me something to do. When do I go in?" She asked, eyeing the man as he walked into the apartment. She then unlocked hers and walked inside, locking it again.
"You go for an interview tomorrow. Morgan Grimes is the Manager. You'll be going in for a Nerd Herd job. Chuck Bartowski-" He told her.
"Wait let me write it down so I don't forget. Morgan Grimes, Nerd Herd, Chuck Bartoski. Why is he important?"
"He's your supervisor in the Nerd Herd."
"Oh, killer. I'll meet them tomorrow, any other news before I roll with the punches?" She asked, not happy with this at all. In fact, she hated the whole situation.
"Its at 9:30 in the morning." He said, before hanging up. Priestly sighed and ended the call also, sitting on the couch. She was frustrated, but knew he was trying to help her.
Casey had went inside to overhear what was going on at Priestly Leblanc's house. He came into the conversation in time to hear her talking about Morgan Grimes, Chuck, and the Nerd Herd. Casey sat up and started using the government database to find Leblanc. Finding absolutely no records of her until the past few days. He sighed, and then called in Sarah and Chuck. Looked like they needed a meeting.
A few minutes later they all stood in front of Casey's computer screen. "Looks like you guys will need to find out what she want's and who she really is." That was the General's last suggestion to them before the screen went blank.
"I was all through her apartment, she really does not have anything to hide in there." Casey told the others, then they sighed. It was time for them to check out the apartment, and get to know Priestly.
Priestly sat on the couch, picking up a book from the shelf to read. Another good thing was they had bought her new and used books to put on shelves, since she couldn't take much from her old place. She looked down at the book, smiling a little. She sat there reading for what seemed like only a few minutes before someone knocked on her door. She sighed, and stood up. She looked out the door, seeing a blond lady and a nerdy looking boy. Seemed like the Chuck and Sarah that Ellie and Devon talked about. "At least the neighbors are friendly." She unlocked the door and opened it, a small nervous smile on her lips.
"Hi! We're your neighbors, I'm Sarah and this is Chuck." The blond, Sarah, told her.
"I'm Priestly. It's nice to meet you two, actually I met Ellie and Devon earlier. They seemed nice too." She told them, the invited them inside to talk. They sat on the couch and talked.
"Oh! I'm really sorry, but where is your bathroom?" Sarah asked.
"Just down the hall and to the left." Priestly told her pointing and looking that direction. As Sarah walked off, Priestly could tell that Chuck looked nervous, maybe being around new people made him nervous too.
"So, Priestly, what do you do?" Chuck asked.
"I'm looking at getting a job right now. I just moved here from New Mexico, I kinda left my entire life behind. My family died in a car crash, my parents and younger brothers. I had to get out." Priestly looked down, trying to liven up the conversation she smiled. "I do have a job interview tomorrow. At the Burbank Buy More. I mean, I know it's not the ideal place to work, but it's enough to pay the bills around here." She told him.
"Oh? The Buy More. Actually, I am part of the Nerd Herd." Chuck told her, she looked at him sideways a little.
"Oh really? You're the supervisor for the Nerd Herd, arn't you?" She asked. Sarah walked back into the room and joined in the conversation. Soon it changed to what they did for fun, then just a while later Sarah and Chuck had to leave.
Once they left Priestly looked at the time, it was only 6PM. Honestly, how long could one day be. "I miss my home. I miss having to run like this. I hate what they turned me into." Priestly kicked her couch softly and sat down on it. She frowned and looked around, ranting about how her life has changed so much in the past few weeks.
After a few more minutes, she placed the book back in her hands and read the rest of the night, lightly munching on the brownies that Ellie gave her, noting that she would need the recipe for them at a later date.
The next day team Bartowski stood in Casey's living room. "This is weird, her house, and she, are completely clean." Sarah said, looking at the computer screen that the General was on. Casey shook his head slightly, shocked that they could find nothing.
"Morgan even said that it was a great interview, he was going to give her the job right then but decided he would wait." Chuck sighed. What was going on with this new girl?
