Slight Hermann/O'Connell , Moonbay/Irvine, Reese/Raven, Fiona/Van


5. Girls Day Off

It was a dark night, and Fiona was walking around the Republican Base. She walked into the hanger, which housed the Gustav and Lightning Saix. She walked over to the Gustav and looked around. She found nobody in the cockpit. She then proceeded to the back.

"She ain't here." Said a voice from behind Fiona.

"Oh! Irvine. I assumed you were either getting your dinner or you were asleep on the couch!" said Fiona, who turned around to see her eye patched friend. "What do you mean by she isn't here?"

"I assume you're looking for Moonbay, correct?"

Fiona nodded.

"Then, like I said, she ain't here. She left because Major Hermann needed to speak with her." Finished Irvine.

"Ah… thank you Irvine."

Fiona started to leave when they heard a crash and saw Moonbay, with Reese, on the back of Specula. They were trying to get away from something. Something that must've upset them. They quickly stopped when they got near Fiona.

"What are you running from?" asked Fiona, confused.

"Ohmifreakingod!" screeched Moonbay, "Hermann proposed to me! What the crap! I don't know him that well! I would at least like to go on a date then he propose!"

"No way!" said Irvine, smiling. "Moonbay turned down the President's son? But you know what that means right? You have no hope in gaining any true money now."

"Gah! Shuddup Irvine!" yelled Moonbay.

"Hey, Moonbay. Why is Reese with you?" asked Fiona.

"I'm here because me and Raven were asked to come. Since we arrived early, I decided to walk around. I came across Moonbay trying to get away from Major Hermann, so I decided to help." Said Reese.

"And I am forever grateful toward you!" said Moonbay.

"Well Moonbay, I wanted to see if you would come into town with me. As a girls day out. You can come too Reese." Said Fiona.

Both Moonbay and Reese looked at each other and said, "Sure!"

They all got into the Gustav. As Reese and Fiona were buckling in they heard Moonbay yelling at Irvine not to tell Hermann anything. Truth or not.

When they finally arrived in the town they had already decided where they were heading. To Rafiel's Bar.

They went inside and took a seat at one of the empty tables. It was unusually empty for a Monday night. The only other people in there were these big scary looking men in the corner of the bar.

The male barmaid came over and delivered their drinks.

"Prepare yourself! I hope you enjoy it." He said.

They started drinking and laughing and having a good time. And one by one questions came out of the others mouths.

"Hey Moonbay, rather kiss Karl or Irvine?" asked the drunken Fiona.

"Irvine" replied Moonbay.

"What about Thomas or Van?" asked Reese.

"Irvine." Was Moonbay's response.

"But he wasn't even a choice then!" shouted Fiona.

"I know. But I'd rather kiss Irvine than any man that you could find!"

"Oh! I would rather kiss Raven that any man ya'll could muster!" said Reese.

" And I would choose Van!" said Fiona.

The men in the corner suddenly got up. They went over to the corner and paid the male barmaid. They then went over to where the three girls were sitting.

"We couldn't help but notice you." Said the biggest and scariest of them all.

"Yeah," said the skinniest, "Wanna come by our place?" He went over to Fiona caressed her cheek.

"In your dreams, meatheads." Said Moonbay, "Ain't no way we a gonna go with you."

"What did you say?" asked one of the other men.

"I said get lost if you don't want a butt whopping." Said Moonbay.

Three young men entered the bar. The biggest of the scary men yelled, "GET YER BUTTS OUTTA HERE NOOBS! WE OWN THIS HERE PLACE!"

The tallest man laughed. "That's funny. I thought the name was RAFIEL's Bar…not Ruben's Bar."

The leader stepped back. "How da yer know meh name?"

The young man stared at Ruben with one eye.

"Yer that mercenary ain't ya?" said Ruben

The mercenary then engaged in a bar fight. He was not alone though. He had Moonbay at his side; also his two friends. When the fight was over, the good reigned over evil.

"I coulda handled it my self Irvine." Said Moonbay.

"Sure you could've. Well…Me, Van, and Raven got worried since you never came back for the rest of the night."

"We stayed out all night??"

"Yeah."

Moonbay gave a big yawn then she fell over on Irvine and fell fast asleep. Fiona fell into the arms of Van. Reese started to fall towards Raven but he stepped out of the way so she fell into the arms of her organoid Specula. They all went back to the Republican Base. Hermann apologized for proposing to Moonbay, he was half asleep and thought she was someone else. Everyone looked at O'Connell when he said this but shrugged it off because O'Connell looked nothing like Moonbay.
