BUSTED?
SWT CHINA: Ebony is already staying at Hilton, and Ivory is currently studying the map. Ivory and Cyborg are close to becoming an item. Do you think this is part of her plan?
-------------
CHAPTER 9. BUSTED?
Scene_ The dinner table, blueprints are spread out, Ivory is furiously scribbling away on a piece of paper. Robin and Starfire get suspicious.
Time_ December 10th, Afternoon
STARFIRE: I haven't seen Ebony for a while, may I ask where she is?
IVORY: She is away at summer camp.
ROBIN: Sounds fun. What kind of camp is she attending?
IVORY: Wrestling; a camp for intermediate wrestlers wishing to go pro.
(STARFIRE and ROBIN exchange glances)
IVORY: She wants to be a wrestler when she grows up. She's pretty good if you challenge her.
STARFIRE: It's the perfect dream to pursue, I think.
ROBIN: Say, Ivory, and what are you studying there? Looks like a blueprint.
IVORY: Hilton.
ROBIN: The one of Shennata Row?
IVORY: Yep.
STARFIRE: Very interesting. What's that you are taking note of?
IVORY: The exits and entrances.
STARFIRE: (Takes a closer look at the map) You are quite the studios one. (Studies IVORY's face) What's this on your face?
IVORY: (Looks up) Oh. That's a battle scar I had no idea it was still there. I got it when I was challenging my sister, the Tai Chi Maiden against the Wrestling Queen. Tai Chi always wins. (Grins sheepishly)
ROBIN: Tai Chi? I think I see people do slow motion martial arts in the park sometimes, is that it?
IVORY: Correct. Mostly the elderly practice it, well for the body. I study it to become physically fit, and use it in defense. Although I'm not flexible like my sister, but I'm pretty coordinated in Chinese acrobatics.
STARFIRE: Chinese acrobatics and Tai Chi? That's a lot of training.
ROBIN: Yea, how did you receive your education?
IVORY: My parents.
STARFIRE: This is the first time you've mentioned your parents ever since you started to stay here.
IVORY: I don't like to talk about them. Anyway, it's 9:30; I don't want to feel guilty keeping you two up all night rambling on about my life.
STARFIRE: If you say so.
(Once ROBIN and STARFIRE exit the room, Ivory puts her maps away and goes outside to her car. She rummages through the pockets until she finds her cell phone she flips it open and pounds in some numbers, an adolescent voice answer)
EBONY: Hello?
IVORY: This is Ivory. Have anything on Hilton?
EBONY: Yes, want me to tell you now?
IVORY: No. Someone might have bugged this phone. We have to talk face to face. Has anyone questioned you on your staying?
EBONY: Nope, I paid this bum $50 to check me in. He told them that 'we' would pay weekly.
IVORY: How do you pay?
EBONY: I put some money in an envelope and slip it into a box every week.
IVORY: Hm, all right. Let's meet at Starbucks soon.
EBONY: Now?
IVORY: Yes, do you have a problem?
EBONY: I'm expecting my dinner to come soon.
IVORY: You order dinner from Hilton? That stuff is expensive!
EBONY: So?
IVORY: Ah, this will only last for several minutes. Bye.
(IVORY enters the Teen Tower, leaving a note with the words, 'Apartment Hunting. Be Back Later.')
