Danger Girls

"Expect the Expected!"
Chapter Five
"Are you out of your mind, Lynxius? What could this sweet thing be possibly doing here if she's Caraway's little girl?"
"I am positive, Diego. I lived just next door to that sanctimonious berk. I don't see her that often since she probably doesn't stay there at all. But come on, amigos! Who could possibly forget a face like that?"
Oh dear oh my oh darn oh drats! We are soooo DEAD!
"You mean to say that we're about to get our hands on a war hero's little bitch?"
"Hah! I saw her first, Locke. I get to be the one to offer her my grace. Yesireee I'm the one!"
"Whoa! Not so fast! If she is indeed Caraway's daughter, we have to know first what she's doing here."
"Hmm You're right, Diego. Lynxius, will you do the honors?"
Gotta think! Gotta think fast!!!
"Uhh Mina, right? Are you really the daughter of Galbadia's acting president?"
Only one way
"Well? Answer me, girl."
"Y Yes"
Girls, do something! Pick up! Pick up or we're all fish food!
"MINA?!? You're a general's daughter? Why didn't you tell us about this before?!?
"Yeah, Mina! Why didn't you?"
Attagirls!
Now I have to make my part good or we're still fish food.
"Are you kidding me, girlies? What if you rat me out to one of your customers? And what if the word gets to my dad? He'd definitely kill me for this!"
"Excuse me but I don't mean to sound disinterested or anything like that. But why are you doing this?"
Here's my chance. I hope the dossier we have on Corneo holds. If it does, that means he'd be too horny to see through our operation.
"Because because my dad's too strict."
"What?"
"He's too friggin' strict he suffocates me! He never allows me to go out with my friends at night, he always locks me in my bedroom during homework time, he assigns bodyguards to me when I go to school and tells them to stick with me like glue. And those bodyguards are females so they can follow me even inside the ladies room."
Looks like it's working. Got to keep at this. Try to hide that smirk, Sefie!
"And worst of all, he never, ever lets me talk to boys."
"What do you mean?"
"I never get any chance to talk to boys! I've never had a boyfriend in my entire life! I'm already 18 years old but I'm still a"
"A? A what?"
Geez, he's so dense!
"A VIRGIN!!!"
I'm lying, of course. But I can see now that my little stunt's definitely working. Diego Corneo and his twisted gang now need to hold their heads over a bucket. They're ruining the carpet with all that drooling.
"Whooo! WHOO-HOOOO!!!"
"YEAH!!! WE GOT THE JACKPOT BAY-BEEEEEE!!!!"
"OONGGAWA-OONGGAWA-OONGGAWAAAAA!!!"
What a bunch of LOSERS!!!
"AHH! I can't wait any longer! You guys party if you want, I'm going upstairs now with my little general star!"
Oh no I expedited too much! At least our cover's safe but
"I'm right behind you, Lynxius. I'm the tallest among us so I'm taking this tall blonde over here."
"I guess you're with me, my little April song."
Okay, Sefie got Corneo. This couldn't be more perfect than we'd planned. Since among us three, she's the one who does best at interrogating. Guess it's now crunch time.
A lot of things were running in my mind while we were making our way up the stairs. But my thoughts weren't clouded enough to miss seeing that guy looking at us again. You know, that muscle-bound Mr. Universe. He's a lot closer now, and he even seemed to smile at us. But as I stared at him, I noticed his eyes are fixed on
Quistis.
And now that I noticed, Quisty's also looking at him as if she knows him. And her face is pasty-white, like she's terrified of him or something. Something is definitely going on here. I hope these three mooks are still too occupied with their fantasies to notice me pulling Quistis aside.
"Quisty, what's wrong? Do you know that guy?"
"It it's"
"What?"
" It's him"
" Him who?"
She just looked at me and all of the sudden, I perceived what she was trying to say.
"The that terrorist leader you told us about this morning?"
"Yeah... but he... he looks so young! He doesn't look that way when I first ran into him. I could probably be mistaken but... It HAS to be him!"
Now I see why she looks so scared. And she has a point, what could that terrorist, who sometime ago was able to coerce the most honorable SeeD to dishonor herself before him, be doing here of all places? Could it only be a coincidence that he's here at the same time that we are? But that's too bizarre!
Could it be that all this time, he's been keeping an eye on her? That's the more logical conclusion to assume given the present situation.
And that's also the most frightening. What could he possibly want from her that he hasn't taken yet? Suddenly, the term fatal attraction' came to mind. It would've been tolerable under normal circumstances. But this isn't 'normal circumstances'. The last thing we need in covert ops is to have someone stalking us like this.
Someone who knows who we are.
What if he blows our cover?
Gotta forget about this for now. Worry about it later. Cross the bridge when we get there.

"WHOO-HOOO!!! Come here my little sweetheart! Come wiz mee to ze Casbah and ve shall mek beauuuutifool muzic togethah!"
Oh puh-leeeaseee! Get this salivating dog away from me!
"I am zer, my pritheeeeee!!!"
"EEEK!!!"
Ohmigosh, what have I gotten myself into? Does he have to pounce at me like that? Hasn't he ever heard of slow and steady? Be gentle, it's my first time'?
"My darling, you're playing coy! I like zat in a voman!"
Can somebody please tell this cartoon network skunk to stop talking like Dr. Odine?!? He's giving me the creeps!
"Whoa, waitaminit! Uhh, sir"
"Call me Lynx. Girls just looove calling me Lynx' because they say it makes them feel sexy."
Yuuuccckkkkkkk!!!!
"Okay, Mr. Lynx, sir can we like, take this nice and slow. You do know that this is my first time"
"But that's what makes this so exciting, baby! The roughness! The brutality! The raw thrill of unleashing my explosive manhood! The"
"SHE'S MINE."
"Huh?"
Huh?
"You may pick up your clothes and take your leave, Lynxius Malady. This woman is mine."
Ohmigosh it's HIM! The terrorist! What is he doing here?
"Says who?"
"I said so."
This thing has just taken a turn for the worse. I fully expected that if ever he would take a part in this, he'd be going after Quistis. But not me. What could this terrorist possibly want from me?
"And just who do you think you are, barging in my chamber like this and intruding into my own party?"
"Who am I? Good question. A lot of people have inquired that of me, and I always give them the same answer."
"And what might that be?"
" I could tell you but then I'd have to kill you."
Yeah like, he can snap Malady's body like a twig.
"You you cannot threaten me like this. Don't you realize who you're dealing wi"
I really wish I had taken the kind of training my friends had. As it is, I'm still too squeamish for something like this Like when this man covered Malady's mouth to keep him from screaming while his right elbow is being reversed. I had no recourse but to look away
And I almost regretted that I did, because I didn't see what he did to Lynxius Malady. When I turned back, there were only the two of us inside the room.
W What does he plan to do to me?
