Athena: "Hi there sleepyheads! Did yall sleep well?"
Ken: "Athena please... And yes i slept good."
Traveler: "Pretty well actually. Thanks for asking."
Athena: "So Traveler... Are you ready to find a job now?"
Ken: "Him? A job? Interesting, i am all ears on this one."
Traveler: "Yes i also thought of your idea so ill join you."
*Athena was happy to hear that the traveler accepted her request.*
Athena: "Great! Then i will call Mika and tell her about this. In the meantime- *she hands him her entry card.* take this. This is my entry card at Duran's military base. If they dont let you in you can leave me a text and ill be there alright? Go and meet with the general. Understood? Dont dissapoint me cutie :).
Traveler: "Yes Ma'am!"
Athena: "I am 19 Traveler... Dont call me like that... Athena is just fine."
*Without saying any word the Traveler departs.*
Ken: "You never fail to dissapoint do you sis?"
Athena: "Oh come on brother its not like i want to dominate over him... Just so he pays more attention to what he should do. I dont want him to lose focus."
Ken: "Yeah.. yeah.. i get your point..."
Athena: "Why you!-"
*Near Duran's military base.*
Traveler: "Lets see this should be the place." *approaches the guards* "Hello there, i am looking to apply for a job here."
Guard 1: "Do you have a entry card?"
Traveler: "Yes here well its not really mine but i am awaiting this person."
Guard 2: *takes it* "Lets see... Athena.. oh its Miss Athena the Psychic girl we know as."
Guard 1: "So i guess you are awaiting miss Athena then? Well we still cannot let you in without her here."
Traveler: "Oh i understand completely. Then i will wait. Thanks for telling me."
*Sends a text to Athena. "Hello there Athena i got to the Military base. The guards told me that they are okay with it but i still need to wait for you before i can enter inside. I guess you have talked to Mika?" **Sent**
*Athena types:* *"Yes i did talk to Mika about it and we will come together. We should be arriving soon. We are by the corner. Just wait for us."*
*Traveler types:* *"Alright i will be awaiting you."*
*5 minutes pass*
Athena: "Hey we're here!"
Mika: "Hi Traveler. *She smiled* Shall we head inside?"
Traveler: "Fine by me unless Athena has something else to do."
Athena: "Huh? *She looked up from her phone* uh no no! We can head inside. Dont worry about that."
*Back at the gates*
Guard 1: "Welcome girls. You can go."
*Yall go inside.*
Mika: "Alright we also assigned a meeting with the general. Since he recovered yesterday he could go back to his usual business."
*Athena knocks*
?: *from inside* "Yes? Come in."
*Athena opens the door and the three head inside.*
?: *looks up from his paperwork* "Oh its you two and...?"
Mika: "Hello general. This is our friend. You can call him the traveler for the time being. He is here to apply for a job."
?: "Hmm i understand. Let me introduce myself first for your friend. Hello there. I am General Neon. I have been guarding Duran city since last 15 years. Now that is out of the way tell me more about yourself."
Traveler: "Hello there. Sadly i do not remember my name... Thats why the girls told you to call me Traveler... I am pretty decent at fighting. I am training with them."
Neon: "Good. Are you good at anything that can prove useful?"
Traveler: "I can cook new dishes real fast. Run for a very long while. And can Carry real heavy stuff."
Neon: "Hmm good.. good.. *he writes down* anything else?"
Traveler: "I can learn stuff real fast. As well as adapt."
Neon: "You seem like a good troup. But before i can let you in I need to test you. Make sure you aren't lying."
Traveler: "Yes sir! I am ready at any time."
Neon: "Before we go i want to ask you this. It will prove useful for future matters. Do you prefer working alone or with somebody?"
Traveler: "I will work with Athena and Mika together."
Neon: "Great thank you for telling me. So i want you to come back here at 13:00 tomorrow. And to make sure you can get inside. *The general gave him his own entry card* give this to the guards in case they ask you for a entry card tomorrow. Alright?"
Traveler: "Yes general thank you very much."
Neon: "You two. Make sure that he comes here at the hour i said alright?"
Athena and Mika in unison: "Yes General!"
Neon: "Good you can go now."
Athena: "Thank you general. See you tomorrow."
Neon: "Goodbye. Have a good day and night."
