What's In A Dream?
Part 5 Zed, Lyndon, and the Whole Darn MIB
Elle and X sulked miserably down the hallway towards Zed's office, they knew all heck was gonna break loose, but they'd might as well get it over with. They just hoped he didn't fire them instead of bothering to get them out of this mess.
"He's not gonna be happy you know," X pointed out to Elle as they reached his door.
"I know that X!" Elle snapped, "He's probably gonna KILL us!"
She reached up to knock on his office door when his voice came from inside, "Come in Agent X, Agent Elle."
Elle and X exchanged looks of fear before proceeding into the occupied office, occupied? X's mother and Lyndon were there! Seated in front of Zed's desk which he was leaning against with an extremely annoyed expression on his face.
"Oh it's just so good to see how well you two have adjusted to each other!" Lyndon exclaimed happily as he motioned for the 'happy couple' to join them.
"Looks like my mother beat us to the punch," X muttered.
"Greeeaattt." Elle groaned.
"Just think, in three short days you two will be happily married and on your honeymoon!" Zoey stated cheerfully, with an ear to ear grin.
Elle's eyes doubled, no TRIPLED in size, "H-h-honeymoon!"
"Yes Agent Elle," Zed snickered, "it appears that it's also a JeeDangian tradition for the newlyweds to go off on a honeymoon. So what planet did you two plan on spending yours on?"
X slapped a hand to his forehead and Elle gave out a meager little squeak, "This isn't happening."
"Oh but is Agent Elle," Zed was enjoying himself, serves those two agents right for being such a headache to him and acting like children, maybe this whole arrangement would force them to grow up and deal with each other!
Lyndon was discussing the arrangements that needed to be made with Zoey while Zed relished in the two agents agony.
"And I'm sure that costumes will be able to make Agent Elle a very nice wedding gown and fit my big green boy with a darling tuxedo."
"Oh it'll be no problem," Zed assured her, "and we'll have everything ready in just three days."
"The minister will need lodging for the night." Lyndon observed.
"Taken care of."
"And booking for the honeymoon, perhaps a nice hotel uptown?" Zoey suggested.
"Consider it done."
Elle and X watched hopelessly as their whole lives were planned out before them. This was so unfair. They just wanted this nightmare over with!
"Can we go now?" X moaned.
"Of course," Zed nodded, "you two are going to need to rest up, you're going to be busy soon, planning your 'big day'!"
With a loud groan both Elle and X headed out the door and down the hall to their quarters. This was a disaster! What had they done to deserve this? Elle glanced at the calendar on her wall as she past. After a little deliberation, she stopped and scribbled 'Dooms Day' on the third day from the present date.
