"This place is sure more silent than a library!" Grina lies her hand inside a left pocket on her short pants.
"Man… I'm like, allergic to libraries…" He scratches on his right cheek, slightly covered by traces of beard.
Behind the two Inklings, there is the main door. In front of them, the elevator door closed and two paths on its sides. On their right, a counter with a smiling female horseshoe crab, wearing a pink pill box party hat with a golden logo depicting "I.S.T. - Inkopolis Security Team". Her eyes are a bit small.
"You are pretty much allergic to anything who has yellowish, rusty pages on!" She grins, as her eyes were pointing at her smartphone.
"Yeah! Totally!" He chuckles. "Man, are we going to spend the nights inside this place…?"
"Affermative, young Ranger!" The female horseshoe crab jumped with her eyes closed, as she kept her smile in.
"Huh? Really? Like, my stuff is in another apartment, girl!" He opens his arms, as he turned towards the woman.
"Are you sure?" She slightly opens her eyelids. "Since when you put foot in your apartment…?"
"Ehm… this morning?" He scratches the back of his head, as he looks up.
Grina was walking in circle, while talking with her smartphone holded near her right ear. The young woman giggles.
"Oh, silly!" She giggles, moving her right hand down. "Did they forgot to mention about your quick transfer? A team picked all your items and brought them in a specific room."
"THEY DID WHAT?!" He leans forward, as he frowns a lot. "THAT'S NASTY, GIRL!"
"Why? It's all written down on the contract." Her arms rests on the counter.
"Contract…? Wha…?" He left his mouth open.
"Tee hee hee! It passed a lot of time, since I saw such surprised face…!" She lowers her eyelids. "Yes, you can't be a Ranger without signing in th contract! If you haven't yet, the superior agents send it through your mail box."
"Whoa, whoa!" He moves both his hands back and forth. "Hold your horses, girl!"
The young woman laughs loudly. Bars smiled, chuckling a bit.
"Anyway… yeah, a mail box? You mean, the mail box I have in the other apartment?"
"Nope! Agents and Rangers have their own mail box!" The female horseshoe crab points on the rightmost path. "Go there, last room on the left. Find your name and… you got mail!"
"Ah… I see…" He looks down the path, catching the long red carpet. "Well, that means a visit is a must! Like… we could do it, right now."
"Wise decision!" She nods. "The sooner you are done with the homework, the more you can play!"
"Ugh… on second thought, I have a brainache right now…" He lies his hands on his forehead.
"Hey, hey! What did I miss?" Grina let the smartphone go, as it enters inside her left pocket.
"Nothing too rad… a team of dudes and girls raid inside my house and took everything." He turns over Grina.
She gasped, expanding her eyes.
"WHAT RANDOMNESS IS THAT?!" She holds her cheeks. "DID A TRAVELING FORTUNE TELLER TOLD YOU THIS?!"
"Nope. That girl over there did." He points at the young woman.
Grina turns over, seeing the smiling female horseshoe crab.
"Pal, what's going on?!" She opens her arms, frowning a bit.
"He just told you that." The young woman nods. "A team took his items and brought them in his new room."
The girl left her mouth open.
"… aaaaah, now the story has sense!" She turns over Bars. "You forgot to mention that last part, big boy!"
"Does that even matter? I don't even know how they put in my stuff! Like, they could simply threw in a pile and leave it like that!" He shakes his head.
"Ah… that sounds awfully probable…" A big sweat drop appears near her forehead. "But at least they couldn't touch my apartment!" She grins, pointing on her chest with her right thumb.
"I'm sure they reported doing the same thing with your house too!"
"WWHHHAAAAAAAAAAAATTTT?!" Grina twists around.
Rapidly, she reaches the counter, slamming her hands on it.
"THE ROOM, PAL!"
"Well…" The young woman slightly squeeze her eyes. "Grina Inkol, Junior Ranger Status… you have…"
She closed her mouth. Silence followed for some seconds.
"WELL?!" Grina clenches her right fist.
"You have… the… uhm…" The young woman looks up.
"Excuse me a moment, but… how about looking through your computer?!" She points down-right, on a semi-hidden medium sized monitor.
"No!" The young woman frowns a little. "If I do, I'll lose bonus points which are needed for the monthly Employee Competition!"
"And what if you don't know the room?! You are stumbling in an infinite thinking loop!" She thrusts her palms forward.
"Very wrong, Ranger! Your room is the number 143, located on the 5th floor, left side of the building, the last 3rd door you see on your right!"
"Good!" Grina smiles, sprinting towards the elevator door.
"Wait!" The young woman leans her right arm. "Transfer plans make sure your items are all in order!"
"I don't trust anyone I just met 2 minutes ago!" Grina turns her shoulder over the woman, as her left thumb press a button.
"Girl… aren't you trusting her for the transfer story?" He was walking towards the girl.
"Details!" She kept pushing the button, in a rapid movement. "Come on, come on…"
The boy sighs, shrugging a bit. The elevator door opens: behind, there are Mirii with Hun on her right and Fara on his right.
"Comin' through!" Grina enters inside, pushing the 5 button.
"Grina?! What are you doing?!" Mirii turns over her, frowning, as the elevator door closes.
The machine starts moving up.
"Paying a visit to room number 143." She folds her arms, tapping with her right foot.
"And why you would visit such room?" She slightly raises her head.
"Because it's mine! They touched my stuff, bringing it there!" Grina snorted.
Mirii expands her eyes.
"Wh-what?!"
"I bet they did the same with yours too!" Grina turns her head over Mirii.
"WHAT?!" Mirii's irises shrunk.
"Though, you have to talk with Miss Elephant Memory, if you want to know your room number."
DING!
The elevator door slid on the left side, as Grina sprints out of it followed by a ricochet sound. Mirii walks near the buttons around a vertical, rectangular silver border. She pushes the 0 button. The elevator door slid on the right side, as the machine moves down.
"Ehm… what happened before…?" A sweat drop appears on the left side of Hun's forehead, as the boy closes his eyes.
"Just Grina's crazy antics." Mirii sighs loudly. "Although, I have a few questions for the reception."
"What's a reception?" He looks down on Fara.
The small girl shrugs.
"It's located on the main floor, with the purpose of greeting guests and giving them cards for their rooms. In this case, they are helping Agents and Rangers." Mirii closes her eyes.
"Oh… like I said before, you sure know many things!" He smiles, looking at the girl.
She opens her eyes, smiling in front of him.
"Thank you, Hunley." She nods. "Your kindness shall be used as an example for all the living beings."
"Ehm… you think?" His arms are bended, his neck lowered a bit.
"Yes. This world really needs to be more humble and gentle, as arrogance and egoism are leading it through a collection of unfortunate events." She caresses her right tentacle.
"Ya know… with those big talkins, ya kinda appear a little arrogant… and a bit egoistic too…" Fara smiles widely, looking at Mirii.
"Fara!" Hun looks at his sister, frowning a lot and pointing at Mirii. "Say sorry to Mirii!"
"Wha? I was just jokin', big bro!" She opens her arms, then she looks at Mirii again. "Ya aren't mad to a little, inncent girl… righ'?" She grins a little.
Hun turns his head over Mirii: she was trembling a little, as a vein popped on her forehead.
"Wh-what nonsense! I-I have th-the perfect temperament…" She has her eyes closed and her face slightly lowered.
DING!
The elevato door slid to the left side, as the trio walks out of it. Bars was looking at the main door: he turns behind, seeing the others.
"Hey there. Grina is like behind her door?"
"I don't know." The veins on Mirii's forehead disappear. "She could even be on her way, through the stairs."
Multiple steps are heard, coming from the left path. Grina shows up, stopping near Bars' left side: her hands stands on her bended knees, as she was breathing loudly.
"Whoa, girl! Right on the bullseye!" He expands his eyes, while looking at Grina.
"Anf… anf… you… why are you watching me…?" Grina raises her back. "Walk in place, march for the cinemas! Epic adventures are waiting for us!" She grins, clenching her right fist.
"Hun has to stay here."
Everyone turns behind: Tonna walks in front of them.
"Ah… hi Miss… Idon'trememberyourname?" Grina looks up.
"Tonna." She folds her arms. "Mr. Tarfo said clearly how Hun has to be inside the Headquarters."
"The reason?" Mirii steps forward.
"It's because of his previous transformation." Tonna looks at her. "Don't try to talk about this. You can't absolutely complain on orders explicitly sent from our president."
"Ooooh… so we have a little obedient girl, in front of us!" Grina chuckles, doing one step forward.
Mirii turns over Grina, frowning a lot and expanding her eyes.
"Excuse me…?" Tonna lowers her eyelids.
"Now… do you really think Mr. Shark knows clearly the best safe strategies for this city?" She opens her arms, shaking her head.
"His name is Tarfo!" Tonna frowns. "How dare you forgot his name?! Do you know you could lose tons of points, if you don't call him properly?!"
"Raising voices… clear sign of weak-minded people!" Grina lowers her eyebrows, still smiling. "You really aren't able to see beyond official orders. Do you know you are in a mental prison?"
From Tonna's ears, smoke was coming out.
"GRINA! WOULD YOU STOP WITH YOUR MADNESS?!" Mirii picks Grina's shirt. "DO YOU WANT TO BE KICKED OUT FROM HERE?!"
Mirii pushes Grina, still frowning a lot, as multiple veins popped on her head.
"Heh… are you saying that Hunry is not allowed to see a cinema with his own eyes…?" She pats on her shirt. "How sad… eh eh…"
Grina pulls out a small bluish ball. Mirii gasped, as the other girl threw it on the floor.
POOF!
Blue smoke surrounded everyone! Quickly, Grina runs away as her left hand grips on Hun's right, pulling him around.
"HEY! STOP RIGHT THERE!" Tonna coughs, with her eyes watery, seeing Grina near the main door.
"I'm sorry, Miss RulesOnly! Hunry doesn't deserve to be treated like a mouse in a cage: let him swim freely through the city!" She pushes the main door.
"YOU IDIOT! COME BACK HERE!" Mirii sprints towards Grina.
She was followed by the other Inklings, as Grina kept running outside while pulling Hun.
