Hey all,
I do not own Holly Short. Or any other character I may use. They are Eion Cofier's and I respect that.
I was surprised to get so many reviews but I'll answer them! I didn't know this story would be liked so I'm sorry it hasn't been updated sooner.
lyle Mcfarland : Stop using the review button to tell me to phone you. They invented something called e-mail. Electronic mail. One day I may let you watch me use it.
(With all due respects to lyle. He knows how to ruin a review)
DaydreamQueenMisha : Thanks. I went with a skirt because I didn't want to over do it and put in a dress. Besides there already is a dress. (evil grin)
some-random-person-who-read-this-and liked-it : Thanks alot!
lilykt : Thanks for the review!
Maiden Gensis : All right . There's no snow here and its too northern for snakes but I'll believe you.
Princess of Paradox : She's at the LEP ball. Or are you talking about the dress?
Holly Rox : You'd better update yours!
Beastfire : Holly may be wearing a skirt but in some stories she's wearing a dress. If a skirt is crazy, what's a dress?
Nae'blis : Yes. Maybe later. But she can't lose her job. That would ruin the fun!
(BTW : NOT against Holly wearing dresses, just saying)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Holly didn't have to wait long. Soon a crowd of LEP officers showed up.
Trouble walked over to Holly, hiding a grin.
"Nice skirt Holly."
"Ya, sure what ever Trouble. Do me a favor and....."
Holly didn't have time to finish her sentence.
"Hey Trouble. Who's the pretty girl beside you? Surely not your date?"
"She's a cute one, Trouble. Where did you meet her?"
"Probably on one of his shifts being the hero Retrieval officer at the crime scene."
"You're a lucky guy Trouble."
"Wait. Isn't that Holly?"
"How did you get her as a date? Arrest her?"
A mountain of laughter exploded up from the officers. Even their dates were snickering.
Holly scowled. "Thanks Trouble."
Trouble was hiding a smirk. Holly sighed. "Oh great. so you planned this. Excellent. Nice juvenile prank."
Root had seen the laughter and came over. "All right. Enough of this what's so funny?"
"Trouble's date, sir!" A voice came from the crowd.
Root looked over to Holly. She looked expectantly at him, hoping for once he would stop the situation.
"Very nice to meet you. I'm Commander Root of Recon and you are?"
Holly wanted to punch him. She spat out her words. "Captain Holly Short of Recon, sir."
Root's look of surprise was a facial look she had never seen before. The crowd laughed again and a few took photos.
"Thank you sir. May I go now sir?"
Root had no answer. Holly took it as a yes.
She left the group and wandered over to Foaly.
"Well Holly, you're certainly well known now."
"Great. Just great."
Foaly had a plan forming in his mind now.
"Tomorrow on your lunch break, meet me in the Ops booth."
"Fine."
Holly ended up being one of the last ones to leave the ball. She refused to leave and be laughed at again.
As she opened her apartment door, she sighed. Tomorrow would not be a pleasant day at work. Then she smiled. When was work pleasant?
------------------------------------------------
Holly made her way to the Ops booth. She pushed through the doors.
"Hey Foaly. So what do you want to show me?"
"No food or drinks in the Ops booth, Holly."
"Come on. Its my lunch." Holly said holding up the nettle smoothie.
"Nope. Finish it outside."
"Oh and what about your coffee?" Holy asked pointing to a coffee cup resting on one of the monitors.
"Not mine. Root's."
"What? Your technology isn't spill proof. Shame. What if I accidentally spilled this how much work would it ruin?"
"There better be no spills, Holly."
Holy ignored him and began slurping the smoothie.
"Fine. You can have that in here, if you don't spill it and stop making that noise."
Holly stopped and smiled. She collapsed into a chair.
"So why did you want me here?"
"Shhh."
Foaly blacked out the Ops booth and closed the doors locking them in.
"Watch the monitors."

Okay. Not much of a suspense thingy but it is another chapter.
Hoping for more reviews!
Till I find the cause of evil.... I think its learning, no some color. Any ways till I find it,
