Mother of Invention, Bridge ,Carolina POV

"I hope you have a decent explanation for your actions agent Carolina, because of you the leader got away." The Director said clearly angry, "And holding a fellow agent at gunpoint, your lucky I'm not kicking you off the team Carolina." The Director finished.

"I don't have to explain any of my actions to you, Director. Carolina responded looking away from him.

"What did you just say to me." The Director said through gritted teeth.

"You heard me I don't need to explain my actions and you have no right to discuss them." Carolina said turning to look at him.

"How do I have no right to discuss the actions of one of MY agents Carolina!" He said yelling at her.

"Really you need to be told why, when York lost his eye you did nothing, when we were on the sarcophagus raid you send that BITCH without telling us, and you failed to see C.T's betrayal leaving her to give information on OUR operations so unless you can fix YOUR fuck ups shut your mouth GOODBYE!" Carolina screamed as she left the bridge leaving the Director flabbergasted.


Mess hall, Carolina POV

The heads of Washington, North, South, York and Wyoming turned to Carolina as she walked into the Mess still pissed about her discussion with the Director. "If you don't want to lose a finger I suggest you look away before I get really mad." She said as she got a tray and sat down at a different table and started eating.

"Did you hear about Maine, Carolina?" North asked looking her way while everyone else kept eating.

"No, what about him?" She asked curiously.

"His implantation just finished he wants to test out his A.I's Eta and Iota, so he's going up against Texas the Director won't know about it want to watch with us?" South asked grinning at the idea.

Sounds like a good way to piss off the Director. Carolina thought and decided to join, "All right when's the match?" she asked.

"It's at three o' clock, it'll be interesting to see if two A.I.'s make a difference." York said interested in the idea.

"Logically speaking the possibility of an additional A.I. helping an agents performance are very slim." Delta spoke up at the idea.

"Personally I don't care whether it makes a difference I just want to see how Maine does against Tex." South said.

"Well guys, shouldn't we at least let the Director know about this." Wash said trying to caution the others.

"And what, let the Director shut down the match before it even begins? Fuck no, if you don't want to get in trouble don't join us alright Wash." South responded shutting him up before he could continue further.

"No I'll be there I'm just worried that's all." Wash said reassuring her.

"Good we would be disappointed if you didn't show up." South said smiling

"So anyway, three o' clock right?" Carolina asked double checking

"That's right, so see you there." York said as Carolina finished eating.

"yeah I'll be there." She said as she got up and walked out of the mess.


Training room, Carolina POV

"So who do you think will win the match?" South asked as the other freelancers were gathering around the observation deck.

"My money's on Maine he's bigger than Tex." Wash said as he walked over to the window.

"Just because someone is bigger it doesn't mean they are more likely to win Wash." North said looking at Wash annoyed.

"I don't really care who wins." Carolina said looking out to the training floor focusing on Maine and York who were standing on thee opposite of Tex.

"Then why are you here Carolina?" South asked confused.

"I'm... observing." Carolina said vaguely.

"What's that supposed to mean?" North asked also confused her answer.

"My reason's are my own you two, back off." Carolina said snapping at them.

"Okay no need to snap Carolina." South said stepping back as York walked in finished with his conversation with Maine.

"How's everything going guy's?" He asked as he walked in.

"Not much, the match about to begin?" North asked moving the conversation forward.

"Yeah just about, come on." York said walking over to the window as Maine and Texas started sprinting toward each other.

"What is going on I didn't authorize a match." The Director said walking into the observation deck, "Oh no Allison!" He suddenly said as he ran towards the glass slamming his hands against it.


Wash POV

"Oh no Allison" was what Wash heard as he turned and saw the Director slamming his hand against the glass.

"ARGGH!" was what Wash heard who turned and saw North, York and Wyoming gripping their heads in pain and kneeling on the floor.

"NORTH!" South yelled and got down next to him trying to get him to calm down

"What the fuck is going on here?" Wash heard Tex yell who turned to look out the window and saw Maine also on the ground gripping his had in pain

"Jesus what is going on here?" He said as he turned and saw Carolina Smashing her hands against the glass in some kind of berserk rage.

"Carolina!" York who had recovered yelled in fear as he got down next to Carolina who had passed out from the pain. "Come on Carolina wake up!" York yelled panicking.

"Agents Wash and South, Make sure those affected get to the med bay for treatment". The Director who had regained his composure said as he left the room leaving the unaffected agents speechless.

"Come on Wash let's get Maine and Carolina to the med bay." South said who turned to the window and saw that Tex had knocked out Maine.

"yeah, got it." Wash responded who turned to the com system to begin coordinating the medical teams to get Maine and Carolina.
