Spells and Louds
Chapter 194: Tec, Check and Shop.
(FutureTech HQ)
Martin is testing out something that Boomer has requested.
"So, is it done?" asked Boomer.
"No" replied Martin.
"You sure?" asked Boomer.
"Yes" replied Martin.
"This isn't gonna take a while is it?" asked Boomer.
Martin turns his chair and looks at the dumbfound face of Boomer. "Are you ever gonna leave me alone?"
"I just wanna know if my old suit can still be usable" said Boomer.
Martin returns back to his work. "This tech of yours is based off from the Uprising war that was after the war of the three powers, I haven't worked on this tech in my life, also where the heck is Victor? He should be the one doing this crap!"
Boomer then remembers. "Oh yeah, he said that he was dragged to the mall by Carol."
Martin stops. "What? When did he say that?"
"When I came into the building I passed by them, then they left" replied Boomer.
Martin stops again and looks at him. "And you didn't bother to ask him instead?"
"He seemed busy" replied Boomer.
Martin sighs and goes back to the work. "Unbelievable."
A few minutes later. "So, is it done?" asked Boomer.
Martin sighs and thinks to himself. 'This is gonna be one long day!'
"By the way, where's your cafeteria?" asked Boomer.
Meanwhile in another room.
Lincoln and Linka are doing some diagnostics on their weapons. Lincoln's shredder blaster and Linka's calibrate sniper rifle.
"So, you two are changing the names of your weapons?" asked Tadashi.
"We are, we just thought since it is a new year and we're both commanders. We could use some change to our weapons names" said Lincoln.
"It suits them" replied Linka.
Penny comes in with a tablet. "Okay, looks like both weapons are fully functioning and no damages of any sorts, I'm surprised your weapons have lasted this long."
"Alright you two, let's see if they can still pack some firepower" said Jack Cyber.
Lincoln sends out an ice blast towards the test dummy, he then switches to shoot a fire ball that destroys it.
He then splits his gun into two and sends a barrage onto multiple test dummies and finishing it off with a dual ice and fire ball blast creating a mist that he comes out of, slowly.
"Nice one kid" said Tadashi.
"Now that's what I call keeping it cool and turning up the heat!" said Jack Cyber.
Tadashi looks at him confused. "Really?"
"Nice moves there bro" said Linka.
"Thanks sis" replied Lincoln.
"Alright, let's see what your sniper rifle can still do Linka" said Penny.
Linka grabs her sniper rifle. "This is gonna be good!"
She snipes ten targets with ease and speed.
She then reconfigures it into a crossbow that sends out four shots in a cone, then she points it backwards and blasts it making her lungs forward.
She then reconfigures it into a sniper rifle in midair and turns it into a spear, impaling the target, reconfiguring it again into a crossbow, splitting the dummy in two.
She then points to another target and shoots out a net and then she tosses a grenade behind her and walks away, the grenade blows up destroying all remaining dummies as she walks away slowly.
"Wow! Two minds think alike" said Tadashi.
"Now that was explosive" said Jack Cyber.
Tadashi looks at him confused. "Are you gonna keep coming up with puns for the rest of the day?"
"Now that was cool sis" said Lincoln as he high fives Linka.
"Thanks, this is turning out well for the both of us" said Linka.
"Now that we have those weapons of yours covered, what's say we go and visit Lynx Superia?" said Jack Cyber.
"Heck yeah!" replied the twins.
They all head out of the room and onto the lift that heads down.
Boomer passes by them with a lot of burgers. "I can't believe they have this here."
Meanwhile Lincoln, Linka, Penny, Jack Cyber and Tadashi make it to the Jaeger hangar.
They can see all of the staff working on some repairs and checking for any damages, also they're making sure she still runs.
"Yup, she's still is great as she was when we first saw her" said Lincoln.
"Every time we come here, she always looks as good as new" said Linka.
Tadashi then checks on the Jaegers systems. "Well, we do our best to make sure she's ready for any incoming threat."
"Does the rest of the Immortal Council know about this?" asked Linka.
"They do, the Guardian told them about the Kaiju attack, they already made a decision that you two will love" said Jack Cyber.
"And what's that?" asked Lincoln.
Tadashi smiles. "Tell them Penny."
Penny smiles. "Okay, the immortal council said that they will have Kaiju detection systems all over each dimension. Once the alarms go off, it means that a Kaiju is attacking a world and that means you guys get to pilot Lynx Superia and kick some monster butt!"
Lincoln and Linka are both shocked. "Whoa! Really?"
Tadashi nods. "Yup, you two are not just commanders of the Aegis Battlecruiser, but now you two are now Jaeger pilots, but we're also trying to see if there are any other people who are compatible with this."
"Why?" asked Linka.
"In case you two are occupied in something else, we'll need some others who will do the job" replied Jack Cyber.
"That makes sense" said Lincoln. Then he gets an idea. "What about Luna?"
They look towards him. "What?" asked Penny.
"She might be compatible to this, but the only person she could probably link with is me. We have a special sibling bond and it is still running strong" replied Lincoln.
"He has a point, just in case I'm not around to join in" said Linka.
"That's risky, but we can do that next time. Anyone else you guys have in mind?" asked Jack Cyber.
The twins then think of the many people and friends they know who have a compatible bond.
"Dad and Mom, Leon and Dana, Sergei and Loona, Luna and Sam and probably Jordan" said Lincoln and Linka.
"Jordan can be compatible to Lincoln, they both have a romantic bond" said Linka.
"That is true" replied Lincoln.
Penny types it down.
"You got all of that?" asked Jack Cyber.
"Yup! All of it, but we could still use some more candidates just in case" replied Penny.
"We'll get to all of that next time, right now. Let's show you guys the different weapons she has" said Tadashi.
"Awesome!" replied Lincoln and Linka.
They head to the control room, there Jack Cyber puts up a list of all the weapons.
Lincoln and Linka are amazed by this.
Energy Chainsaw, Plasma Cannon, Ion Blaster, Photon shotgun, sword, deflector shield, Fusion grenade launcher, Tomahawk missile launchers, Phase bomb cannon, Wave force tri-guns, Super-heated gauntlets, cryo beam, inferno flamethrower, tesla coils, magnetic whip, Dual Drakuv heavy machine gun, war axe, cleaving war glaives, energy mace, heavy sniper rifle and giga shock hammer.
"Those are a lot of weapons for one bot" said Linka.
"Talk about overkill!" said Lincoln. "How did you guys manage to fit all of this into the Jaeger?"
"Let's say we got some Guardian help to maneuver every weapon into the robot" replied Tadashi.
"Turns out, Gyro helped with the Jaeger program. Since he did get the schematics for it" replied Penny.
They all look towards Lynx Superia, standing in all her glory and looking damn awesome.
"Soon sis, we will use her again" said Lincoln.
"We just have to be patient and we will get to pound any threat coming to the realms" said Linka.
"You two are already sounding like soldiers of war" chuckled Jack Cyber.
"We're just trying to sound cool" teased Lincoln.
They all laugh at the joke.
"By the way, where the heck is Victor? We saw him drive off earlier" said Linka.
"Oh, he said he was gonna help Carol at the mall" replied Penny.
They all look at her. "What?"
They know that Victor is not the kind of guy to do this kind of stuff, they don't know how it will go for the Russian scientist of Tesla matter.
(Royal Woods Mall)
Carol and Victor are walking out from one of the clothes store, but not just an ordinary clothing store.
"You know we could've gone to Reiningers instead" said Carol. She's carrying her bags.
"I know, but I wanted to bring you to the clothing store that I go to, Martin and the others know about this place" said Victor.
"But Victor, this looks like a store for people who are in a form of rich level, my parents may be in a way fancy, but they aren't that rich" said Carol.
Victor smiles and kisses her cheek, making her blush. "Well, to me you're a diamond in the rough and that ain't no lie."
Carol blushes. "Oh you!"
"Hey Carol!" They both stop and turn around to see Lori, Jackie, Mandee, Teri, Whitney, Dana and Becky.
"Oh boy" replied Carol. "Hey guys!"
They then see Victor. "Looks like you're here with your man I see" teased Teri.
Victor chuckles. "Well, it is true I am a man and not a teenage boy, Leon and Martin are in the same level as me."
They all chuckle. "So, you two clothes shopping?" asked Lori.
"Is it got another date?" asked Whitney.
"Oooooooh!" they all reply. Carol giggles. "Not really, we're just picking out some outfits to wear, for next time."
They do notice the logo on the bags, it was a lion with eagle wings and is standing on a pedestal.
They all gasped. "Did you two go to Gryphon's shopping?!" asked Jackie.
"That place is expensive!" said Mandee.
"That's where I shop all of my clothes" replied Victor.
"What?!" yelled Dana.
"No freaking way!" said Becky.
"Literally shocked right now" said Lori.
"And you brought Carol there too?!" asked Teri.
"He did, I didn't wanna go at first. But he was very persistent about it and he wanted to help me pick out some nice, or should I say beautiful new styles" replied Carol. She then leans her head onto Victor's shoulder.
Victor chuckles. "Just something to make our relationship a bit more, stylish or complex."
"Well, since we're all shocked out of our minds, I think we all need lunch" said Dana.
"Food court?" asked Whitney. All the girls look at each other. "Food court."
"I'm paying" replied Victor as they head there.
Carol is shocked. "Victor, you already paid for the clothes, you don't have to do this."
"I know, but it feels right to do so. That and I have tons of cash to burn, it suck to work for FutureTech" replied Victor.
They all make it to the food court and already discuss on what to eat. Carol heads to the nearest restroom and Victor heads to the food stands, thankfully he's smart so he remembers what they all want.
Lori looks at the bags. Curiosity kicks in and she looks.
"Lori, what are you doing?" asked Dana.
"Sorry, it's just I have never seen any of the clothes there before. I just wanna know what they got" replied Lori.
At first they were all upset at what Lori was trying to do, but then they were also feeling curious.
"You know what, let's do it" replied Becky.
"Finally get to see what they sell there" said Jackie.
"Only rich or fancy people go there" said Mandee.
"I did see Ms. Dimartino and Hugh go in there once" replied Teri.
They peek inside and see that they bought some fancy and stylish suits and pants, shoes, shirts, socks that was Victor's bag.
"Wrong bag" said Lori.
Jackie grabs the other two. "I think it's these ones."
When they look inside they are shocked.
Velvet short-sleeved shirt with lavender and violet flower patterns on the waist line.
Pink knee high skirt with some Japanese symbols to the side.
Purple heels with some rose patterns.
Long sleeve purple uniform with a lilac collar and glittering buttons.
Lilac colored knee high socks with purple wave patterns and blue polka dots.
A Lavender dress, similar to what she wore on her second date, only this one is strapless, can show some cleavage, two v-cuts on the sides to show some legging and velvet wave patterns on the waist.
"Those look so cool!" said Jackie.
"I am so jealous right now!" said Mandee.
"How in the world!" said Teri.
"She is so dang lucky!" said Whitney.
"I can't even begin to express what is happening right now" said Dana.
"This stuff has to be totally off the price tag chart!" said Becky.
Lori chuckles. "Carol really knows how to get the right things."
But then Lori notices a box at the bottom, she looks to the name and blushes. She then looks away.
The others notice this. "Lori?" asked Becky.
Lori just stays silent. They were all confused by this. "Lori, you okay?" asked Teri.
Lori sighs. "No …. No I am not."
They knew whatever is wrong with her, came from Carol's bag.
They all look back in and then they see the box at the bottom, they see the name and all blush.
They all look away and are full red.
"What? What? What?!" said Mandee.
"She did not!" said Jackie.
"Looks like she did" said Dana.
"Carol you cheeky girl!" said Becky.
"Please don't say cheeky right now" said Teri.
"So, what is she planning with that?" asked Whitney.
They all knew, that Carol was the one who could answer that question.
Soon Carol returns from the restrooms. "That was one heck of a line back there."
She then sees her friends looking at her. "What? What's with you guys?" She turns to see Victor still waiting in line.
Carol takes her seat. "Something wrong?"
They were all too nervous to ask. So Lori went for it. "We looked in your bags."
Carol blinks and looks calm. "Oh, okay. Stunned to see the outfits, maybe I can show you guys how they look."
They all get nervous. "Carol, we saw ….. All your purchases" said Mandee.
Carol was confused at first, then she realized what she meant and she turns bright red. "W-What?!"
They all turn bright red.
"S-So … You saw …. T-The box?" asked Carol shyly.
They all nodded. "Oh boy" replied carol as she puts her hadn to her forehead.
"So, did Victor pick that out for you?" asked Dana.
Carol regains her posture. "No, when we were looking around, I saw it and thought it would look nice and I wanted to know how Victor would feel."
"And?" asked Teri.
"When he waited for me to come out I showed ….. Him what I also got" replied Carol.
"What was his response?" asked Dana.
Carol sighs. "He actually took it well, he wasn't nervous or blushing wildly, he just said that I looked sxy in it."
They all gasped and they're mouths agape.
They were confused at to why Victor would be okay with it so fast.
Then it hit Lori and Dana. They looked to Carol saw just how different her skin tone was.
"Carol ….. You're glowing" said Lori.
"What?" asked Carol. "What do you mean?"
"She means, your skin tone" replied Dana.
Carol turns red and looks away. "I-It thought no one would notice, my parents don't even know."
The others were confused by all of this.
"Okay guys, literally lost me here" said Whitney.
"What are you guys talking about?" asked Becky.
"And what does this have to do with her skin tone?" asked Jackie.
Lori looks to them sternly. "Science class, human anatomy."
They look to Carol and are trying to think. Carol is also waiting for them to figure it out.
Two minutes later and it hit them, with a massive blush and slight giggling.
"Wow!" said Teri.
"No way. No freaking way!" said Becky.
"So, you and Victor?" asked Jackie. "Had a thing?"
Carol turns red. "Y-Yeah, w-we did." She then reminisce of the day it happened. "And he was amazing!"
They all giggled and blushed.
"Oh my god, Carol you are literally going up on Main Street aren't you?" asked Lori.
"I guess you can day, that night it happened. After the restaurant date, we were both on cloud nine" replied Carol with a blush.
"That's because we were both in sync" they all turn around to see Victor with their food. "I got the food and I knew this would happen."
They all enjoyed the rest of their moment enjoying their lunch and then having a conversation about what happened with Victor and Carol.
To be continued …..
I just came up with this randomly, plus I got one hell of a surprise once I hit Chapters 196 to 200! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
