"I've called this meeting to discuss this important matter." Riza brushed hair out of her face. This was the first time the other lieutenants saw Riza Hawkeye flustered and uncertain – about anything ever.

"Someone has got to do something about the Colonel." Kain complained. Everyone looked down the table at him. "Not me! Just someone. Else." He mumbled sinking into his seat.

"Yeah he's acting like a prick. He took my Brittney away!" Jean said. Milk-like tears streamed down his face thinking about his lost love. Heymans inched away from him.

"I agree. But who's going to snap him out of it?" Farman asked. There was silence around the table. The three men not including Havoc, who had his face down on the desk surface, looked from each other back to the first lieutenant.

"What me? No! No not me. Just not me. He'll listen to one of you. The Colonel will thing I'm just nagging him. M.S.G. you do it." Riza passed the stares to Kain.

"I'm afraid he'll fire me if I question him." Fury shook his head breaking into a nervous sweat. The other men raised their hands in agreement, that their superior officer would have them out of central if they questioned his ways.

Just as Riza opened her mouth the door was thrown open.

"What's good ya'll?" Roy asked sauntering into the office. Not really sauntering but what he called his 'pimp walk'. Twomen,much bigger than Roy himself, followed him in the office.The man wearing a skii hat glared at Kain, making him sink farther into his chair.Roy turned to address the men. "Ice, Chuckles take five. There's some iced coffee up in the break room, knock yourself out."

Once the men were gone he spoke to his team. "It's my bad that I'm late. This pretty hoe wanted to see me, you know?"

Havoc clung to the tail of Roy's purple blazer. "Brittney?"

"Yeah man. I hit that shit. And watch my sneakers. Like 'em? Newestpurple and white Jordans." Roy said flattening the part of his flamboyant outfit that Jean wrinkled. It seemed that the second lieutenant melted into his seat.

Roy 'pimped' his way to the head of the table. "Aiight I got some announcements. S'cuse me shorty." Roy said to Riza who rolled her eyes and stepped to the side.

"Aiight so this is what's goin' down. My boy was tellin' me about this party right? I'm gonna have to go. See though I'd have to leave a little early so – "

"Sir you have to finish your work. You have a thousand things to do here." Riza butt in.

"Chill boo," Roy said. It was obvious Riza didn't like being called 'boo'. "You all can come too."

"Will Brittney be there?" Havoc asked hopefully.

Roy thought for a moment and shook his head "Nah man but the pretty things there got some nice junk in them trunks."

Everyone blinked at Roy for a while.

"Sir," Kain asked being careful with his words. "What in the world does 'junk in the trunk' mean?"
