Chapter 5
"Joey?"
"Yes ma'am?"
"Send Irvine to my office."
"Right away ma'am."
A few minutes later, Irvine walked in, real cool, calm, and collected.
"So, Irvine, may I ask you a few questions?"
"Sure, but you already did."
Krystal rolled her eyes. "Name?"
"Irvine"
"Age?"
"31"
"Gender?"
"Male"
"Family?"
"Prefer not to say."
"Team?"
"I'm a mercenary."
"Zoid?"
"Blue Command Wolf."
"Thank you. That is all. I will meet you on the first floor and I'll give you a tour. Oh ya, where might I contact you?"
"Whatever room you gave me to sleep in, I geuss. By the way, what were all those questions for?"
"If your trying to apply, you must first have an application. True, is it not?"
"Oops, busted aren't I?"
"Yup."
'Heh heh. oh boy.' Irvine thought. 'I've been caught. However, she doesn't seem mad. Yet she really doesn't let her emotions show much. I can't tell if she's happy, furious, exasperated, or what. Oh well. She's dang good looking though. Really nice too."
*top floor*
Irvine and Krystal where sitting on a very comfortable couch, sipping hot cocoa, and watching her servants take care of some of the flying Zoids that had just returned from scouting duty.
"So. how did you get so rich?"
"Rich? Hahahaha! You think I'm rich? These were all gifts. The base, my equipment, even the cocoa we're drinking right now! You see, I am a certified genius. The fall of the Backdraft group? It was my idea to lure them out, my plan, I worked out the angles, yet the big guy gets all the credit. It's not like I mind or anything, it's just that. never mind. They gave me this base, and most of the Zoids in it. However, in return, they send some of their top rank fighters here, to train under me. Plus I do all of their taxes every year. Talk about a frickin' nightmare! However, it's nothing compared to this base. I also custimize a lot of their Zoids. Take the Dragon Scye for instance, I created it, and their testing it right now to se if they want to use it. Or Drill Mole, a mole like Zoid that burrows underground with a giant titanium drill bit, and titanium claws. It stays under there until the enemy pursues it, but the Mole is prepared. It usually grinds the other Zoid to pieces. That's being tested too. So, what about you? Where did you come from?"
Irvine just sat there, in shock of all that he had just learned. 'The Backdraft group's fall was due to this beautiful woman? A genius? An inventor? How.. why..' then Irvine realized that Krystal was waiting his reply. She sat there staring at him with those really deep, blue eyes, waiting for a reply.
"Well, I have just been a wanderer. Going from team to team, not really wanting to join any, always looking." At this point, Irvine stopped, catching himself just in time.
Krystal looked down. She looked at her watch. "Crap! I got to go. I'll be right back. Can you stay here till I get back? Just call Joey if you need anything. The phone's right there. If it rings answer it, kay?"
"All right, see you soon!"
***In Krystal's Office***
Krystal looked at the applications one more time, making sure she was making the right decisions. She affirmed it, and reached down and picked up her antique gold phone which looked really good on her redwood desk. Krystal dialed a number in, and heard it ring.
"Hello?" Irvine's voice sounded a bit shaky, almost uncertain.
Krystal answered sweetly. "Is this Mister Irvine?"
"Yes.. why?"
"This is Krystal Scythar, you tried out for my team earlier today, remember?"
Irvine decided to play along. "Why, yes I do. Did I misspell something?"
"No sir, you have been accepted! Bring your stuff to the base right now, and choose which floor you would like! How many moving trucks do you need, and what's your address?"
"I don't need any moving trucks, so my address isn't needed. I'll be there as soon as possible! Thank you!" Irvine, still up on the launch bay overhead view area, began to dance. 'Now I have a chance with Krystal, and tons of prize money!' "YAHOO!!!!!!"
Krystal picked the phone back up, trying to stop blushing. She just couldn't help it! It was hard enough not to blush or smile when she was in the presence of him. 'Why not give yourself a break?' Krystal thought to herself. She put down the phone to collect her thoughts quickly. 'His muscles, his solemnity when needed, yet his cute way of relaxing when it's appropriate. Who could not fall in love with him? NO! Stop it! You aren't in love with him! You can't fall in love with him! Just pick up the phone, and finish calling your team.' She liked the sound of that. Her team. She picked the phone back up, and began to dial.
She had called all of her team, Irvine, Reigan, Alex, and Cyrus. 'they should be here soon.' She thought. The a knock came on the door. "Come in!"
Irvine walked in, real cool like. He had a duffle bag over his right shoulder, and keys to his Zoid in his left hand. "I'm here about the room?" he stated. They both just sat there for a second and then burst out into uncontrollable laughter.
"So, what floor do you want?"
"I get a whole freaking floor to myself?! But this is all the crap I got!"
"That's why, my friend, I'm taking you shopping. All of you. Not at once, but one by one. Me and you will go tomorrow, I'll go with Cyrus the next day, and so on and so forth. Get it?"
"Oh. Ok." Then the force of what Krystal had said finally sunk in. It hit him like a brick, "Wait, wow. Hold on a minute. You mean, your taking me shopping?"
"Yes sir. That's what I said. We'll get your floor painted what ever color you like, room by room too, while we're out shopping. We'll get you furniture, entertainment stuff, I'll buy you anything you handsome little heart desires, so long as it fits on your floor."
Irvine blushed at the 'handsome little heart' comment. He turned his head to hide his scarlet cheeks. "Thank you. I really don't know what to say."
"Just say what floor you want, and then we'll go down there, choose the colors, and have them get started on it right away. You can sleep on my floor tonight if you'd like. Wait. I take that back. I'm going to do this for the whole team, so. why not have a get-to-know-you sleepover in the living room? Yah! That's what I'll do! But, if you want to sleep next to me on the floor, you can, hunk."
Irvine went (if possible) even redder. 'Why does she flirt and tease me like that? And why do I care?' Irvine thought back to the tour. "I want the 14th floor, if possible."
"Well, the only reason that it wouldn't be possible, would be if somebody lived there. DOES ANYBODY LIVE THERE, IRVINE?!!!!!"
"no ma'am"
"SO IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO LIVE THERE?!!!!!!"
"yes ma'am"
"That's better. Come with me now, and we'll go unpack your stuff."
Dragon Scye: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wasn't that just the funniest chapter you've ever read?
Irvine: "yes ma'am"
Dragon Scye: *Staring daggers at Irvine, making him cower in fear.* That's what I thought. See you guys next time!
