- Chapter 1: Ky's First Day -

Director: So, child. You would like to become a freelancer. How interesting. Last year when we approached you and asked you if you did, you said, " Hell no, old man". Care to explain this sudden change of heart?

Ky: Well, I want to now. That's all that matters. So what about it, Dr Church?

Director: Well, since you asked so nicely. But I will assign you a guide to help on your first day. Carolina! Please come here!

Carolina runs to the Director's office.

Carolina: Yes sir?

Director: We have a new agent today, and I entrust you to be his guide.

Carolina: I would be honored to escort our new agent, sir.

Director: Good. Dismissed, agents.

They leave the room and head to the quarters. She shows him his room.

Carolina: This is your room. You will share a bunk with Agent Idaho.

Ky: So... Carolina,huh? Good states. May I ask if you're North or South Carolina?

Carolina: I'm technically both, I guess.

Ky: Cool. Well, want to hang out? Well, by that I mean, like, get to know each other better or some stupid shit like that?

Carolina: I guess. So, what do you do in your spare time?

Ky: Usually either read or play video games. But sometimes I train.

Carolina: That's good. I usually just hang out with York and Wash, who you'll meet later.

Ky: OK. My question is... are you single?

Carolina: Are you hitting on me?

Ky: No, just wondering. Are you?

Carolina: Yes. Now, do you want to meet everyone?

Ky: Yeah but will it be in the lunchroom? I'm starving.

Carolina: Sure Kentucky. Just... be nice to everyone, please. Even if they start shit. Or at least try.

Ky: Got it. Are we friends?

Carolina: I'd say so.

Ky: Thanks. I now have a friend, someone to talk to.

Carolina: No problem Ky.

Ky: I think this is the start of something beautiful.

Carolina: Okay, well get some rest. We've got a big day ahead of us.

Ky: Well, see you later, Carolina.

Carolina: Have a good nap.

Ky: You too.

(4 hours later)

Kentucky knocked on Carolina's door to get her awake, so they could go eat lunch.

Carolina: Be there in a sec!

She comes to the door.

Ky: Hey Carolina. How are you?

Carolina: I slept good. You ready for lunch?

Ky: Always. I'm also excited to meet your friends.

Carolina: Well, Wash is my roommate. Here he is.

Wash walks to the door.

Ky: Hello Wash. I'm Kentucky. Pleased to meet you.

Wash: Formal.

Wash yawns and shakes Ky's hand.

Wash: So, you'll be eating lunch with us?

Ky: And hanging out, yes.

Wash: Ok. Carolina, is he funny?

Carolina: Pretty funny.

Ky: No, you're pretty. I'm funny.

Carolina: Not a good example.

Ky: Not an example. Just the truth.

Carolina: Are you flirting with me?

Ky: Not yet.

Ky winks at her.

Wash: Not another York...

York: You called?

Wash: Hey York. This is Kentucky.

York: Hey dude. Give me knuckles.

Holds out his fist.

Ky: Hell yeah.

Ky gives him a fistbump.

York: Sweet, he's got a good sense of humor.

Carolina: Ready for lunch guys?

Wash: Yeah
