Klinklang's Adventure

Hello. I'm Chase Klinklang, the Torch City clock worker and manager. And before you ask, no, I do not live where I work. I live near The Evee Sisters Cafe. I live a normal, happy life. But one day I'd get myself into biggest pickle I'd ever be in.

It all started on May 6, a Tuesday. I was in my office at Big Clockworks, ready to fire slackers and repair clocks. All of a sudden I heard a knock on my door. It was Kayla Klang.

"How is it Chase?" she asked.

"Nothing much." I said.

"Anyways, there's something I need to tell you." she said nervously. I could tell she wanted a raise because she asks me every day.

"What is it this time?" I said scoldingly. I've had enough of her excuses over the last 5 years. If heard one more excuse I was going to fire her (she's my best worker too).

Before she could say anything the phone rang. I dismissed her back to work and answered the phone. It was Lt. James Gallade. He normally calls to say hello or because his clock broke. But this time it was something different.

"Hello." I said.

"Hey Chase," James said, "how's it going?"

"Nothing much," I said, "did your clock break again?"

"No. I called you because I need to ask you a few questions in private." he said. I didn't know what was going on. But I didn't mind.

"Sure, you can ask a few," I said "but where we meet?"

"Meet me at my apartment at 8:00pm. And don't be late." he said. And when he said that, I knew something was wrong. I went to the cafe to eat dinner. My favorite, nuts, screws, and bolts. Afterwards, I went to James' apartment. I didn't know it right then, but just by being there, I had gotten myself into the biggest pickle I'd ever be in.
