Hey all my fans out there! Here is the first chapter of Chrome: Training Facility. So please read and review!
Holley was so excited. This was her third year of training at Chrome and she was loving it.
Driving her purple jaguar up to the main gate of the facility, she flashed her trainee pass, and the guards opened the barrier and let her pass. Driving down the wooded lane, Holley came to the huge complex where the training facility was located.
Pulling up to the main office, Holley parked her car and headed inside. The lady at the desk smiled the returning agent and handed her the key to her room. Thanking her, Holley read the tag attached to the key and headed for her dorm. When she arrived, Holley pulled her bags out of the trunk. Dragging them up the steps of the dorm she set them down and was about to pull open the door when a shout made her turn.
"Holley!" Siddley cried, running up the stairs, "When did you get here!" he flashed her his famous toothy grin.
"I got here twenty seconds ago. And you didn't have to worry, I was going to say hello!" she smiled back. Bending down, Holley was about to pick up her bags when Sid said, "Please, let me." Siddley took the bags from her and carried them inside. Stepping inside the elevator, Holley pressed the button for the third floor as the doors slid shut behind them.
When the doors opened again, Holley led the way to her room and unlocked the door. After telling Siddley where to dump the bags, Holley began to unpack as Sid threw himself on the bed.
"So how was your summer break?" he asked.
"It was good, I'm glad to be back here so we can continue our training, but I miss being home with my family."
"I feel ya, this summer my family went camping and let me tell you, it was interesting. My little brother accidently caught my tent on fire while we were roasting marshmallows, so I had to sleep with him in his tent. I never knew an eight year old could snore so bad!" He laughed.
Holley shoved the last of her clothes into a drawer before turning to Sid. "Did you get our books yet?" Holley asked turning to Siddley.
"Not yet. I was on my way over to get them when I saw you pull up."
"Well then come on, let's go get them!" Holley said pulling Siddley of the bed.
In a few minutes, they were pushing the door open to the main office.
"Oh your back!" The lady said with a smile.
"Yeah, Sid here forgot to pick up our books so we came to get them."
"I see, Jut give me one moment, I'll go and get them for you.," She said getting up from her char.
"I'll help you!" Sid called as he followed her into the back room.
As Holley waited, the office door was pulled open once again, and a young man walked in, carrying a duffle bag and looking quite lost. He had dark black hair and piercing, pale blue eyes.
"Is this the office?" He asked, approaching Holley.
"Yeah." Holley said giving him her most friendly smile. "I'm Holley. Is this your first year in training?"
"At this facility, yes, but I've trained with CHROME for about four years."
"Really? Where are you from?"
"I just transferred from the CHROME facility in Wales. They said I should come here for more extensive training," He gave her a friendly smile.
Just then there was a loud crash. The two whirled to find Siddley sprawled on the floor, both stacks of books scattered around him.
"And this," Holley said, pointing to her friend, "Is Siddley, Sid for short."
"Nice to meet you" The man said, as he and Holley began to sort the books into piles again.
"Thanks. But I'm afraid I missed your name," Sid said, flashing his famous smile.
"Oh, sorry, I'm Finn. Finn McMissle. And it's a pleasure to meet you, both of you!"
Just then, the lady returned and sat down again at her desk. Finn approached her and asked for his books and room key. When she gave them to him, he thanked her and read the tag attached to his key. "Could you guys, show me where the dorms are?" he asked.
"Sure!" Holley and Sid said together, "What floor are you on?"
"Third," was the answer.
Holley picked up her stack of books as Sid got his and the three set off for the dorms.
When they arrived, they took the elevator to the third floor. At their destination, Holley and Sid took their books to their rooms before meeting up in Finn's room.
As Finn unpacked, Holley picked up a piece of paper and a pen and drew a rough map of the campus, telling the newcomer about the daily schedule at CHROME.
"Breakfast is a seven-thirty sharp, and it's always a good idea to keep a stash of granola bars on hand, in case if you miss it. Sid here found that one out the hard way."
As Sid made a face at Holley's back, Finn laughed. Without turning around, Holley picked up a pillow and smacked him in the face, causing him to fall off his chair. "The Cafeteria is located in the west wing, right next to the library and the storage room." Holley continued as Sid picked himself off the floor. "And the classrooms, gyms and the pool are located in the east wing. The south and north wings house a combination of labs, lockers, and a few classrooms."
"Got it!" Finn said as he sat down beside her.
Just then Holley's watch beeped.
Looking down at it, she declared that it was lunchtime and the three hurried out of Finn's room to the cafeteria.
"Lunch time!" Sid yelled as he ran down the hall. Skipping the elevator, Sid ran over to the stairs and sat down on the railing and, with a push, slid down, yelling the whole way.
"Is he like that all time?" Finn asked, as he and Holley walked down the stairs at a more sedate pace.
"You learn to get used to it," she replied.
When they reached the bottom, Sid was waiting for them. Opening the door, the three agents headed for the lunchroom.
So there's chapter one… Hope you liked it! So again, please read and review!
