2066 Words
The scene goes back to the two kinetic energies fighting underground. "We don't have time for this. The plague is coming." Says the black energy. "I don't care about the plagues right now. You got us killed and you do it everytime. Every 300 years. How do you manage to screw up every 300 years?" The purple energy argues back. "This is a team effort. It's no way im screwing this up by myself. We have to come back wiser. Stronger. It takes a village." Standing its ground, the black energy is now starting to expand his words on a deeper level. The purple energy was still going strong though. "Then make the village stronger then. You're the one thats supposed to be in charge here. If that was the case. I can do this myself." "Oh, dont be so naive, Purp. You couldn't do this by yourself if you wanted to. I'm the most powerful dragon. You only have them little psychic abilities." Black energy says out of irritation of the whiny girl. "If you're the most powerful dragon, then why couldn't you free your spirit from that rock, Baker? Riddle me that. Face it, we need eachother." She says as finally admits the obvious. Cargo voice grows with irritation. "Thats been my point the whole time. We do this every 300 years and you still dont get any smarter. We need Rosay to complete our trifecta. Then our team with be complete. Now, a more compliant Camilia starts to speak. "Thats the first smart thing you said since we been in this little dirt world. I sense that he's somewhere in the volcanoes. that would make sense, right? Fire? Volcanoes." They start to put their energies together to think "It actually makes perfect sense. I'm glad to have you back on board. ready to travel. We don't have long and the sun is fading fast." He finishes up as they both takes off, magically swimming their energies through the dirt to find the third missing piece to their evil trio. Back on top of land, where they two partners in crimes went racing through, Granger is now found at the scene along with Trevor, Candice, Adonis, Mario, and Stealth. They were working on a house that they had been building for two weeks now. They were overachieving, fast workers. Ganger Greenite and Stealth was finishing up with the door while Candice and Adonis was during the windows. Trevor and Mario were already closing up shop and loading everything back into the van. "OK Granger. Once you and Stealth paint, then Candice and Adonis finish securing the windows, we'll all be done." Trevor said in a tired voice. You can tell he was exhausted. Granger didn't really care for real. He wasn't trying to hear none of that. He gives them a brush off smirk. "Man, f**k that. Yall motherfuckers need to do something else besides being the clean up crew." Now Mario is very amused by this. He laughed a loud and disrespectful laugh back at Granger. "I Don't want to hear that s**t, man. We laid this motherfucker brick by brick. Don't try act like you did all the work just because you installed that pissy ass door handle." These six coworkers had mouths like sailors. They didnt hold nothing in, nothing back, and certainly didnt care who they hurt. They were brutally honest and Granger was the main culprit. "Pissy ass door handle? The f**k you mean? That is not all installed. I actually installed alot more than that. Me and my boy Stealth done put insulation in here, designed the room, painted the walls, and you want to act like you did so much. You aint done a b***h ass thing. They all start laughing as Candice shake her head. "I see i done got hired with the wrong group of people. Yall don't give a f**k for real. Do yall smoke on the job too?" She asks in a curious tone. At this point it seemed like a sweet job. You really could do whatever you wanted too for real. "What kind of question is that? Of course we smoke on this damn job. Weed is legal here. You can literally do whatever you want to. As long as you get your work done." Adonis made sure that he pointed that part out. He wanted her to understand that they still took their job seriously, eventhough they did fool around alot. "I'm the boss, motherfucker. I believed she asked me. Not yo incompetent ass." Granger joked as he continued to work. "Yeah, you see who our boss is. This unprofessional motherfucker. We call him Greenite. Like the rock, but we also look at him as a Green Knight. Mainly because he doesn't mind helping others. He'll hire you regardless of your background or criminal history." Stealth followed up. Still keeping the serious conversation light on its feet. "Oh, so he's a saint, huh? I can see that. Anybody that doesn't mind actually being on the jobsite and working with us is good in my book. We can all use more employers like you to be honest." Candice said with a great sense appreciation and admiration as well. Granger just laughs though, eventhough he was thankful to hear her words. "Aite, f**k all that lovey dovey s**t. We're here to work and s**t talk. Not to pay compliments. Although I do appreciate it for real." The finish up on the job and then proceeds to help load up the tools. "Alright, i think we're all done for today." As he talks, Patricia pulls up to the jobsite. Getting out of the car, She walks to open the backdoor, taking out a bag fast-food and drinks that she brought to the site for all of the workers. She walks over cheerfully and sits the fast-food order in the back of the truck. "Here you all. I brought food and drinks for the gang. Burgers, chicken sandwiches, nuggets and fries. I made sure that yall had a variety. Got each one of yall a powerade as well to keep you hydrated. I hope yall enjoy it. I even brought you something too Candice. I'm not one of them insecure girlfriends." She says with a bright and bubbly smile. Also talking in a semi flirtatious voice. One would say that it mightve just been the way that she talks. Her personality was so bubbly that it clearly amused Granger. The other guys though, they couldn't help but drool over her. "Well thank you, Patricia. Greenite told me so much about you. Nothing, but good things. I promise." Candice waits for Greenite to get his food, then she take out the portion that she want. " He also told me you were nice like this. You cater to him 24/7 for real. More like 25/8, but I like that and he's kind of cute too. Seems like a keeper. Oh and you're definitely very pretty as well." Candice has now started making conversation, talking more now than she did in the past two days. "You're Welcome, Candice and yes. I do cater to him. Don't be trying to steal my man, now." She let out a soft chuckle. "Thank you for the compliment as well. I know that my man can be a little friendly at times. He's a very frisky thing" They both chuckle, but Candice hides her laugh that was really in amusement to keep the rest of the conversation nice and short, since she's was actually attracted to Granger. Thank God Granger chimed in when he did. almost like it was perfectly orchestrated. "Yeah. Real friendly." He says as he looks at Candice, giving her a slight smile. "What are you doing here anyway, Patricia Elecksa? I thought you were at the daycare?" She gives him an innocent look before responding, still with a slightly chipper voice. "I was, but we sent the kids home early today. I felt like it was for the best. I don't know why, but I guess it was placed on my heart to do." Studying his facial expressions as she speaks and looking at Candice. Something seems a little suspicious, but she couldn't really tell yet. So she just brushed it off. Although she did want to know why he wondered about her being at her job and he wasn't as happy to see her. "It's ok, Patricia. If Granger aint happy to see you, I know i am." Mario gives her a slight wink as he bite his lips. Patricia lets out a small blush that she desperately tried to hide, but she can't. "Well, thank you, Mario. At least somebody is happy to see me." She says while giving Granger a sarcastic, nonchalant, teasingly smile out of spite. "Well s**t, I'm happy to see you too if he aint, but I f**k with Greenite. I wouldn't even do him like that." Trevor speaks as he is side eyeing Candice and Granger lowkey. All of these compliments and side eyeing is what makes Granger finally speak up. He lets out a snicker as he speaks. "It's ok, yall. If yall want to talk to her, its fine. We're in an open relationship. Me and her both decided that we can literally do what we want. So, Candice? How about a drink tonight? You know any good clubs?" The moment that he asks, Candice is completely taken back. She didnt expect for him to be so honest and straightforward. She kinda liked his style more than she probably should have. Looking at him through an obvious blush, She replied. It was insanely embarrassing at how desperately she tried to hide it. "Yes, we could have a drink together or two." She smirks at him. "I know this great club on Cocktail Rd. I wanted to check out for the longest. I think its called Club Dragon? Wouldn't be surprised. Everything is so Dragon related in this city." Patricia is amused though. Almost like she didn't have a care in the world as she's still checking out Mario with an intense stare. Looking at him through passionate eyes. "Well, how about you, Prince Charming? Pick me up at 8 for our date? I'll be sure to wear something very sexy for you." Mario is very shocked when she asks the question. From how cozy Granger and Candice seemed to be, he could tell that it wasn't no game. He thought for a minute then looked over at his boy. "I'm sorry, Dawg, but she fine as f**k. I'll be out there waiting for you at 7:30 sharp. Definitely wear something sexy for me and short." Mario had now unapologetically started checking her out. He couldn't help it. You can tell that the man wanted to say no, but the temptation was too strong. Almost like she had a hold on him. Whatever it was, wasn't helping neither of them. She gives him a flirty smirk as she kisses at Candice. "Goodbye, Babygirl. I look forward to seeing you tonight. I just know that you gone be the baddest b***h there." Candice looks back at her in awe, but very accepting of the arrangement that two of them seem to have had. A very wide smile crept up among her face. "Thank you, Tricia girl. i'm sure you clean up nice as well. i definitely can't wait to see you in that short outfit of yours." Candice winks back and hugs her. Patricia is eating this up completely as she get a call to her phone. "Give me one second, I'll be right back." She admits while walking off and distancing herself now away from the hug. Walking off to seclude herself somewhere more private so she can talk. "Hey? What's up, Dan-Yella girl? You got a job? Thats wonderful. I can't believe it. Congratulations so much. I'm very proud of you. You trying to go out for drinks? Thats fine. Me and Granger Greenite just agreed to a night at Club Dragon. Yes, girl. We got two separate dates." She starts to chuckle. "It's ok. Trust me. Swingers?" Patricia is laughing harder and harder. "It was a mutual thing honestly. Just be ready, throw on a beautiful dress, and we'll be outside of your apartment by 7:30. Alright, girl. I'll see you there. Love you too. Bye.
