Chapter 2:
"Ved hurry up. You have ten minutes. Slash," Jay called into his comlink.
"Yes Jay?" Slash said, a little irritated.
"Slash do me a favor, lose the attitude. Ram needs to see our newest Techno, and she needs an uniform. Just bring me a jacket for now. You can do a fitting tomarrow. We have..." he checked his watch, "eight minutes before she has to be seen."
"Ok Jay. Be right there."
"Jay, I don't see how Ram can expect me to get her a mask, comlink, and uniform in ten minutes." Ved complained while he rapidly worked on a comlink trying to get it to accecpt Maria as the user.
"Five minutes," said Tag on the comlink.
"It works," cried Ved. He hurried over to her and began attaching it to her mask.
"Three minutes." Just then Slash rushed in and gave the jacket to Jay. Maria put it on.
"Let's go," Jay said. They hurried down three corridors to Ram's office. Tag, also wearing her mask, was waiting outside the door.
"You made it. Good. Nice job Ved. I didn't think you were going to make it. Ved," she looked at him, "this is Siva's old mask."
"I know. Its the best I could do on such short notice."
"Ok lets hope Ram doesn't notice. Let's go." Tag led the way into the room. Ram and his other bodyguard, Lan, were playing chess. "Lan you're off duty." She walked up to Ram and gave him a kiss. "You know, if I didn't know you're related to Lan, I'd be jealous."
He smile at her. "You have nothing to worry about." He regained his compousure. "Is this our newest addition?"
"Yes it is. Maria?" Tag motioned for her to come foreward. "Ram Maria is going to work with Jay and Hardwire on the map of the city." At the mention of the map Jay shifted uncomfortably.
"I would like to speak with Maria." Ram gave a look to Jay and Ved which had them running to get back to work. "And you dearest, go get ahold your contact. Finish the file on the Mall Rats." Tag started protesting. "Dearest go. Look at Maria's muscles, she can protect me if needs be. Go." He pulled her in for another kiss.
Tag left the room, as she was passing a weapon's closet she heard heavy breathing. She banged on the door. "We can hear you out here. Wrap it up." She laughed when she heard the two protest.
The door opened and Ved peaked around. "You have impeccable timing as usual, Tag."
"Oh, just think of the trouble you would be in if it was Ram that caught you?" Slash stuck her brown head out of the door. "Should have known it was you Slash. You two have been all over each other for the last week." She rolled her eyes as the two got out of the closet and headed in the direction of the barracks. [i]I wonder if Genius has replyed yet,[/i] Tag thought. She hurried to her office to see if he replyed.
Genius obviously, is her contact in the city. It must be her lucky day, not only did he reply, he was also online. She read the last of the members of the tribes. They talked for about fifteen minutes then she had enough information to start the mission. She jumped up and ran towards Ram's office, she was so excited that, for once she didn't knock.
Maria was showing Ram what she can do the computer.
"Tag I hope you have a good reason for not knocking," Ram told Tag.
"I do we have enough information to start the mission. All we need is the map and we can go ahead."
Ram get excited and started the preparations for mission.
A week later...
The planes were fuled, the soldiers ready Ram gave a speech to energize the soldiers. After the lanes left the ground, Tag turned to the few more important Technos.
"Phase 1:underway."
