Just one touch
Chapter Two
"Hey Anita!"
Anita Knight looked up. She was at the Storage Room of the U.Z.Z. base, standing next to her sky-bike. "Hey Victor." she said with a smile when Victor Volt landed his sky-bike next to Anita. It was a new day, meaning a new mission or a training day.
"I heard we have a new agent walking here, a female one." Victor said as they walked to the Briefing Room.
Anita looked to Victor. "You're acting like it's rare that they recruit female agents."
"I didn't mean it like that, but most of the time we get male agents."
Anita sighed when Eliza Fox walked next to them. "You men are all the same." she said. "Every man is looking forward to meet the new agent."
"Well, it's just…" Victor started, but Eliza interrupted him.
"That you men are thinking about one thing." she said.
Victor stood still and looked to her with a strange look. "Thinking about what?" he said, but Eliza didn't answer.
"See you guys later! Bye!" she said as she walked into the Control Room.
"What am I thinking about?" Victor asked as he and Anita continued their way to the Briefing Room.
Anita knew exactly what Eliza meant, but she just shrugged. "I don't know."
"Ah, Victor and Anita. I'm glad to see the two of you again." Changed Daily said when Victor and Anita sat down in their chairs. "Before the new agent will be introduced, I will tell you my new name of today. Which is changed daily because of security reasons. Today, you may call me…" Changed Daily grabbed his communicator and looked to it. "Oh, Caramel Shortcake." Professor Professor, Victor and Anita started to snicker. "Yes," Caramel Shortcake said slowly. "anyway…Ray, bring in the new agent!"
Special Agent Ray walked into the Briefing Room with a tanned woman. Her hair was dark-brown and her dark eyes were shining. She gave her new co-workers a little smile. "Guys, this is agent Delilah Smith, the new agent." Ray said. "Delilah, these are Professor Professor, Victor Volt and Anita Knight. They'll show you the base and teach you the basics." Ray walked away again, leaving the new agent alone with her new colleague's.
"You heard it, Victor, Anita." Caramel Shortcake said. "First you'll show her the base and today or tomorrow the two of you start with the training."
Victor and Anita stood up. "Yes, sir." they both said and they took Delilah out side the Briefing Room.
"So, Delilah," Victor said and he looked to the new girl. "How did you end up here?"
Delilah smiled. "I was at the game convention when Special Agent Ray saw me. He asked me what I thought about comics and after I said I love to read them, he asked me if I wanted to become an U.Z.Z. agent. And look at me now."
"So you love comics and games too?" Victor asked.
"Yep, you too?" Delilah asked and Victor nodded. "How about you, Anita?" she asked to Anita. "What do you think of games and comics?"
"I'd rather love to read books about secret agency than to read comics about that." Anita looked from Delilah to Victor.
"What? Did I do something wrong already?" Victor asked when Anita looked to him.
"No, nothing." she said and they started with the tour through the U.Z.Z. base.

"So, what do you think about the U.Z.Z. base so far?" Victor looked to the young agent. It was lunchtime and Victor, Anita and Delilah were sitting at one of the many lunch tables at the canteen.
"It's…" Delilah thought for a few seconds. "Huge." she finally said.
"Yeah, I know." Victor said. "After lunch, we'll go to the Training Room."
Anita looked to Delilah. "Do you want to train now or do you want to wait till tomorrow?" she asked.
"I don't know." Delilah answered. "I mean, maybe we should finish the tour first and then we'll see if I have some energy left for some training."
"Alright." Anita said and she stood up. "Shall we go then?"
"Sure." both Victor and Delilah said and the stood up.

Kent walked through the hallways of the U.Z.Z. base. Doctor Doctor sent him to see if Professor Professor invented something new. Although it was his boss, he rather wanted to stay away from the lab as far as he could. Professor Professor was most of the time in a crazy mood and Kent was always the one who needed to be his 'labrat'. Kent sighed. He heard about the new agent and he wanted to meet her, just because he was curious about her. Some of his fellow agents told him that she was really hot; a 'black beauty'.
Kent looked up when he heard Victor and Anita talking. They were arguing about something, something small probably.
Then he saw her, the new agent. That can't be, Kent thought. Suddenly, he sprinted to the new agent and he pushed her into a closet.
"What…Let me go!" Delilah said and she wanted to give Kent a punch in his face, but he held her hand.
"It's me, Pink X." Kent said and Delilah looked to him for a few moments.
"It…It really is you!" Delilah said with a smile and she gave Kent a hug. "And I wanted to…But how…?"
"Orders from Doctor Doctor." Kent said and he looked to Delilah. "And you?"
"Orders from Doctor Doctor." she said. "I thought you quit T.H.E.M."
"Not exactly." Kent said. "Do you think we can catch up some time, maybe this afternoon?"
Just when Delilah wanted to say something, when she heard Victor and Anita calling her name. Delilah grabbed a pen and she wrote something down on Kent's arm before she left. Kent looked how she walked away again with Victor and Anita and he looked to his arm. Delilah wrote a number on his arm, her phone number, maybe. Kent smiled a little bit. He would call her today. It's been a long time ago since her saw her for the last time and now it was time to get back into her life again.
Woohoo, I'm quick! =D It will be only for today, because I have a lot to do tomorrow, so I don't think I'll update then. Maybe the day after tomorrow, but I'm not sure. vertiline, thanx for your review, I really appreciate it.
