Alright, if you are liking the story so far, please send in a review!
The car gradually slows down, stopping right in front of a metallic main door. The passenger's seat door opened, as Tonna put her left foot on the wet sidewalk. She stood still with her head turned over her right, seeing Mirii stepping out of the car: both the Inklings were wearing their Protective Suits.
"Have a good day, ladies!" Mr. Guile's voice escaped out of the car.
Tonna turned behind, as a smile grew on her face and her right hand waved over him.
"Thank you for your patience, Guile. See you around!"
Mirii's face grimaces, as her left hand pushed the door back. Tonna pushes the door too, as her eyes were following the car zooming through the road.
"Uhm..." Tonna's right hand fell over her somewhat-cracked mask's right side. "Can't believe such guy would know the Shrine so well."
The woman turned over the girl, which her arms were stretching down along her sides. She nodded once. Her head turned once more over the main door: she snorted loudly, as her back bended forward.
"Uuuuugh... more painful tasks coming for me..." Her eyes rolled. "I think they are going to leave you alone for the rest of the day."
The two Inklings walked towards the door.
"Good. I had the necessity to utilize my laptop." Her irises bounced left and right. "I found a very interesting documentary to analize and study."
Tonna took a plastic card, which she passed it through a small hole.
Click.
Her left arm pusher the door: she saw Grina's head turned to the left and Bars who had his arms folded and his head pointed towards the woman. His right forefinger tapped the girl's right shoulder, as a smile formed his face.
"Look, girl! Like, I told you to chill out for a bit!" Bars pointed over Tonna.
Grina turns quickly, with her mouth a bit open. Her eyes tracked even Mirii, which walked a bit farther than Tonna.
"There you are!" She smiled, as her legs began to move. "I thought you were doing a free tour around Inkopolis!"
"A traffic jam prevented us into returning to the Headquarters in a shorter time." Mirii's head rose a bit, as her eyelids lowered and her frown grew a little. "I notice you weren't conditioned by your dominant need of joking and laughing at the expanses of intelligent people."
"Actually, that was the strategy I had in my repertory…" Grina's left hand rests on her left hip, as her right forefinger pointed at her forehead's right side: the right hand lied then on her right hip. "But I can't pull out jokers, if the Agents pull us out instead." She shrugged.
Mirii's eyes opened, as her frown increased. She bends forward.
"What statement are you conceiving now?!"
"Yeah, no joke." Her right thumb pointed the stairs, which were behind her. "They called us to bust some missions wide open."
"Nice try!" Tonna stepped forward, smiling a bit. "I went to the Chief myself, talking about work-related discussions: he declared that Mirii stays in her room, once she's back into the Headquarters."
"Girl, like this dude came to us and" Bars opened his arms.
"Who's the Agent that talked with you?!" Tonna's wrists stood on her hips. "Name and role he has."
"Ehm…" His eyes went down-right. "He had that super suit…"
"A Hero Agent? A Hero Agent told you this?" She squeezed her eyes a bit.
"Tonna my friend." Grina grins, as her right hand patted her left shoulder. "Getting all suspicious kinda throws you into the pit, we are trying to avoid."
"The pit my butt, kid!" Frowning, Tonna took out her mask. "Who do you think you are, trying to outsmart a Pro Rank like me?!" Her right hand lowered the zip.
She scrolled down her Protective Suit: her left hand, which was holding the mask, took the Protective Suit as her right hand sunk in her pocket. The woman pulled out a smartphone, which she immediately touches the screen with her thumb.
The phone was brought close to her right ear: her right shoulder held the phone, as her hands were taking the Protective Suit, bending it over multiple times.
"Hello sir? Tonna here: I request a quick reminder about Grina, Bars and Mirii's situation." She smiled a bit.
Her bended suit were grabbed by her left hand and her mask was under her left armpit. Her right hand took the phone once again. A voice came out from her phone. Suddenly, the woman's eyes almost popped out! Grina snarled between her teeth.
"Sir?! W-why they have a mission?! Wh-which kind of mission?!" Her jaw dropped.
The voice kept talking.
"But that kind of mission is reserved for Agents! You can't"
The voice's volume increased through the phone.
"N-no, I-I didn't want to oppose sir… it's that Rangers rarely have missions like this." Her teeth bites her lips. "And besides, those three Rangers in particular have a special role inside the team. Are you sure they are allowed to take on such duty?"
The voice's volume decreased, while talking for a while.
"… Mr. Tarfo ordered this in person?" Her right eyebrow rose.
Mirii frowned a lot. Grina opened her mouth a bit, while Bars was folding his arms.
"… uh-huh…" She nodded, while the voice kept talking. "… uh-huh… yeah, Mirii just returned back to the Headquarters… … uh-huh… no, the Ranger is in a good shape. I'll send them right in your office, sir. Thank you for the information and goodbye."
She brought her phone in front of her face: her thumb pushed the red button. Her irises rose over Grina: she growled.
"… you are despicable…" Her eyes were on fire.
"Told ya!" Grina shakes her head, while shrugging. "Anyway, me and Bars will get to the boss: Mirii, take your time ok?" She smiled.
Mirii nodded.
"More time would be unnecessary for me." She slightly rose her head. "Make sure to not worsen the chief's mood."
The girl walked past her friends, as her hands took off her mask: her right hand pulled out her two tentacles, which were now swinging freely on each step. Mirii walked inside the room with the stairs, while passing to the right an Inkling woman wearing a white coat.
"Mr. Tarfo… this order emerged out of nowhere." She frowns a bit. "What this man has in mind? This mission might hide more information than expected…"
The sound of her steps were echoing throughout the room.
"… no matter. They could attempt to deploy the most conceived enigmas in my way, but they would never conquer perfection."
Her eyes saw a white wall, with a red carpet in front of it.
"Grina's pitiful searches for fun and Bars' moronic stupidity could easily frustrate my tactical response against this tentative of concealment…"
Mirii turned to the right, walking down the hallway.
"In that case, I can't point my finger on them… I'm the genius of the team, after all. My role is to guide unaware Squids, through dangerous situations."
The girl stops in front of a door.
"Hunley would have been vital for my counter plan… but I will demonstrate that perfection can dominate even under the pressure caused by thirds."
She knocked the door.
"Be patient, Mr. Tarfo… soon, I'll reveal to the entire world all about Project Neo."
The girl closed her eyes.
"Who's there?" Fara's voice came from behind the door.
"Good morning, Fara." Mirii smiled. "It's Mirii speaking."
The door went behind, after a click. The small girl smiled widely, as her eyes were right on the shoulder straps of Mirii's bag.
"Hi Technie!" She bended forward a bit. "Ya want to see Hun?"
"Yes." She nodded once.
"He's in the bathroom, bu' get in please!" Fara pulled even more the door.
"Thank you, Fara." She bowed down.
Mirii calmly entered inside the room: the little girl pushed the door back, closing it.
