I know this isn't the best chapter, but I've had a lot on my mind and an insensitive little brother. I hope you enjoy this chapter.
In the Meadow
Chase sat trying to balance one of his cores on his nose. The core fell off and Chase caught it in his hand. "Beyal are you sure this will this really help me strengthen my bound with my Monsunos?"
Beyal looked at Chase with his innocent, gray eyes and gave a response. "Yes, Sky told me that the Strike Squad would do this to strengthen their bounds, and I do not believe that Sky would lie to me".
"Perhaps you shouldn't listen to everything people tell you". Chase rubbed his right hand on the back of his neck, remembering the one time he had listened to Sky and long story, short he ended up in a library with nightmares for weeks.
Beyal gave a tilted his head to the sided, but before he could say a word, a piece of paper hit him in the face. As he pulled it away from his face and looked at it in awe. Chase stood up walked over to look at the paper that now held Beyal's attention.
Both read and reread the letter before Chase exclaimed "It's a love letter from Jinja, but who is it meant for?"
"I'm not sure, but we should return it to her". In the distance both controllers heard Dax yelling Sky's nickname.
Chase took the letter and neatly folded it, placing it in his pocket. "Yeah, but I think we should help Sky," he sighed "again".
A few minutes later
After Dax got his beanie back, Team core tech gathered around Sky to hear what she had to say.
"STORM having a ball!" The team shouted simultaneously.
"Yes, the invitation says that I'm allowed to bring guest" Sky pointed to the invitation where it that.
Jinja paused for a second then looked at all four guys and Sky, "Uhm, guys do you even own formal clothes?"
"No" everyone responded.
Jinja turned to Sky before saying, "Hey, Sky you thinking what I'm thinking?"
A large smile appeared on Sky's face before both of them shouted "Mall trip!"
The guy only stood there, silent, trying to think of an excuse to avoid going to the mall. Just the thought of the last time they went to the mall with Jinja and Sky, shot shivers up their spins.
Chase finally spoke. "Hold on! There's no way we can find formal in enough time".
"Non-sense the ball is two days away from today. Plus, Jinja and I are amazing shoppers." Sky said.
"Then it's settled! We're going to the mall tomorrow!" Jinja excitedly exclaims.
Later with the Strike Squad (after they battled Team core tech)
"That was a great battle" Chase exclaimed as Lock returned to it's core.
"Yeah, you've gotten a lot stronger" Alpha replied as he watched Jinja win her battle against Tango. He sighed. He would not win her heart today, so he would wait until the ball to win her over.
Bren and X-ray were still battling. Sky, during this time, gazed at the sunset as it set behind the trees. Bren's focus fell on how beautiful Sky looked as the shining light fell upon her. X-ray took the chance to knock out Neo Quickforce.
"Krag!" Bren mumbled lowering his head in disappointment.
"Better luck next" said X-ray as his monsuno returned itself. He then looked at Sky, then at his empty hands that once held a beautiful crimson bouquet that he had planned to give to Sky at sunset. If only he hadn't lost the roses, when a group of bees started to swarm the flowers. X-ray, despite beating Bren, felt far too ashamed to asked Sky to be his date to the ball.
As soon as the sunset, Sky stretched her arms over her head, "Well, it's been fun, but I think we should go to bed now, tomorrow will be a long day of shopping".
Jinja nodded. "Yeah, she's right. Night guys". She waved as she walked to her room. The other soon followed and the Strike Squad left.
I'm sorry if I don't update for a while, I'm really worried about my Grandma who is now in the care of my Aunt (who smokes a lot) and her boyfriend (who smokes and drinks). The worst part is that neither of them knows how to hook up her oxygen or how to actually keep an eye on her.
Sorry about that. I still hope everyone enjoyed this chapter.
