Annime: Hello everyone!
Chiro: Annime does not own SRMTHFG or anything belonging to someone else.
Chapter 7
Chiro pulled on his hoodie and looked into the mirror.
He was going with the team to meet with the mayor.
He smiled as he walked to his tube and went down to the control room. As he met everyone there they looked at him strangely.
"You are not REALLY going to wear that there, are you?" Nova questioned.
Chiro crossed his arms.
"I don't see anything wrong with my outfit, Nova, so what is the problem?"
Nova shook her head, crossing her own arms.
"Well, for one it's doesn't scream, 'This is important, listen to me!'"
Chiro smirked. "Relax; I know it's all going to be fine. These cloths are casual, which is the style the mayor herself wears."
Everyone nodded, although it was a nervous nod.
"Ok," Chiro announced. "Let's go."
They traveled through the alley ways in the darkest part towards the city hall. This was a pattern until Chiro was grabbed by the collar and dragged into the light.
"Chiro, where have you been?" Hunter's voice cried in fake worry. "We were worried about you! You need to at least leave a note when you pack your bags and leave your apartment."
Chiro smacked his hand away and glared, clearly annoyed at him.
"Well, I don't remember giving you the role as my mother," Chiro countered.
Hunter huffed. "But you could have at least called or SOMETHING!"
Chiro was then being tugged back into the alley way by Sprx.
"Ok, I'm sorry, Hunter, but I have to go now."
Hunter blinked as Chiro swiftly disappeared into the alley way again.
"Now where did he go?" Hunter mumbled as he peered into the darkness. He shrugged his shoulders and walked away, letting the subject settle for another day.
Chiro walked, once again, with the monkeys towards City Hall.
"Well, that was a close one," Sprx complained. "Who knew that red head could see Chiro like that?"
"Hunter has always been able to see clearer and faster in the dark than the rest of us," Chiro informed him.
Antauri closed his eyes and crossed his arms, appearing to be in thought.
"Well," the black simian spoke, "let us be more careful along our way, understood?"
Chiro nodded. "Ok, I'll try to stay deeper into the shadows."
They continued their way through the alleys until they finally reached the huge building that stood in the center of the giant city.
"Let's go," Chiro commanded when there were very few people to notice them.
They quickly leapt from the bushes hey had hidden themselves in after leaving the alley and raced up the very large flight of stairs.
"Hey who are they?" a little boy cried as the team finally made it up to the top.
Chiro stayed behind for a few moments to wink at and shush the boy. The boy giggled at the fact that this was all a secret and played along. The five year old placed a finger to his lips, showing Chiro he knew he needed to be silent. Then, Chiro raced after the monkey team.
"What did you see, Peter?" a woman asked the five year old after handing him his ice cream.
The boy giggled and put a figure to his lips.
"Shh," he whispered. "It's a secret, mommy!"
His mother looked at him curiously before just smiling and shrugging it off.
"Ok, but remember, we have to hurry so we can meet daddy at the train station."
Peter laughed with joy as he and his mother left for their destination.
Chiro and the monkey team went a different way to the mayor's office, so they weren't spotted at the front desk.
"Are you sure we should be going this way?" Gibson asked.
Chiro nodded.
"Yea, the mayor usually isn't having meeting or anything at this time, so coming to see her now shouldn't be a problem."
They all nodded and continued to walk down the deserted hall.
"Now, Carly, I didn't say that we needed flower pies for the festival, I said we needed flower CAKES and BALOONS," the female mayor argued over the phone. "I mean, HOW you could even get this confused is beyond me!"
Apparently planning this year's spring festival was harder than it looked.
A knock was heard at her door.
"Carly, I will have to call you back," the mayor said. She hung up the phone and called, "Ok, please come in."
Chiro poked his head into the room and smiled.
"Oh, hello Chiro," the mayor welcomed the teen. "How are you today?"
Chiro chuckled nervously.
"He, he; I have not been better."
"Well, I'm so glad you are here, because I would love to have an indecent conversation for the first time this week."
Chiro stepped into the room, but still hid the five robotic monkeys behind the door.
"Sorry to ruin this moment for you, but I didn't come here for an indecent conversation…this is actually more important than the festival."
The mayor raised an eyebrow at Chiro.
"Ok," she spoke, holding out the word. "What is it?"
Chiro then opened the door wide to reveal Antauri, Sprx, Gibson, Nova, and Otto.
"These guys," Chiro told her, "Live outside of the city…and they have some bad news more us all."
The mayor stood stunned as she looked at the five simians.
"W-what are they doing outside of the city instead of in the zoo?"
Chiro slapped his forehead.
"Ms. Mayor, these are not just some REGULAR monkeys; they are monkeys that have urgent news for you and we need you to listen."
"Yea," Otto shouted, but it only sounded like monkey language to the mayor.
The mayor looked up at Chiro and smiled.
"Chiro, I always knew you were a kidder, but isn't this a little bit unnecessary. You usually don't go this far," the mayor questioned.
Chiro sighed.
"Ms. Mayor this is no joke. They clearly told me something that will affect the whole world."
The mayor just kept smiling.
"Oh, Chiro, they don't speak anything but monkey talk."
Chiro kept his serious gaze on the young woman.
"They have news that the world will soon be under attack."
Annime: Ok, yes, it did start out rocky, but hopefully it's not my worst…ok maybe I hope I do.
Chiro: Why?
Annime: Because if this isn't my worst, then I have had WROSE.
Chiro: Oh…well, please review!
