Chapter 7

Gabrielle held her hair tightly. She let out a very deep sigh. Her hair is longer because it has an extension. It turned out to be wavy and pitch black. It looks far from the original. Did not comply with Chase's statement that he would cut her hair because Gida said that he knew something better for the make over of her hair. This is what followed. He lowered her eyebrows a little and put a mudpack on her face earlier. She also has light make up now. Even herself, she almost did not recognize earlier when she looked in the mirror. Chase easily trained her because she already knows about self-defence. It only added a few.

"We can restore your hair if you want." Chase said suddenly.

They are going to Men in Action and she is nervous because she will face the agents. She looked at Chase who was busy driving. Its sight is focused on the road.

"It's not like that... Isn't this what I want? Ahm... I'm just nervous when we go to Men in Action, because I will meet all the agents who are with you. Then, you said... Your commanding officer is rude."

A faint laugh escaped Chase.

"You don't have to be too nervous. Ervine, he is not that rude now. It disappeared when he got married. Besides, my tukmol(dumb ass) friends are kind even if they are crazy. Just don't carried away by their craziness."

Because of what Chase said, she lost the nervousness she was feeling and she smiled.

"Like Sky..?" she hesitated to ask.

"Yups. It's not that I'm ruining him but this is really the truth... Sky can easily attract a woman but he can also be turned off quickly."

She looked at Chase in amazement. It looks serious in what was said. She was slightly shaken.

"If you think Sky is bad... Well, you're wrong. There's something worse than him... Velvet."

"V-Velvet?" curious he language.

"Uhum, he just likes to flirt but he doesn't commit. When he doesn't want to, he just doesn't want to."

Gabrielle was a little taken aback. She could not imagine what kind of man that Velvet was. She looked at her companion.

"Eh you, Sir?"

The man frowned and glanced slightly at her.

"What am I?"

"Are you also a womanizer?" she exclaimed.

"Huh, don't accuse me like that Gabo. For us, I'm the kindest." Chase's arrogant language.

Gabrielle folded her arms. She raised an eyebrow at Chase and smirked as she looked at it.

"The truth?" she was not convinced by the language.

"True, I am the kindest."

"Promise?"

"Yups, even if one of my toenails dies."

She was even more unconvinced by what he was saying because a frugal smile appeared on his lips. That's all, because of that smile it looked cute and really kind in her eyes. She just turned her attention outside... But she was still bored so she tampered with its radio. She turned it on and the chorus of a song resounded around. 'I'm gonna love you, like I'm gonna loose you. I'm gonna hold you, like I'm saying goobye...' She could do nothing so she accompanied the song and she did not care if her voice was not good. She was bored and she did not know if they were close to where they were going because of the many twists and turns they went through. Confusing. She stopped singing when Chase accompanied her. She looked at it.

"Gabo, you are not the only one who has the right to sing." Chase's smiling language.

A faint laugh escaped her. He also knows how to get along on the trip. a few more songs were played and they all struggled to keep up until they reached their destination. Gabrielle was impressed when she saw the beautiful headquarters of Men in Action. Obviously the place is not casual. Chase parked their car and got out first. She followed it. He walked inside the building, she just kept following. She always played with her fingers because she was already nervous. She looked at her companion, he is just relaxed. They boarded the elevator.

"Everyone is in the board room. They are waiting for us. Come, hold my hand so you don't get too nervous."

He held out his right hand and looked at her intently. She hesitated as she reached for his outstretched hand and she was slightly startled by the fact that he kept her hand in his whole palm.

"Your hand is cold. Just relax, no one will eat you there. One more thing, I am with you."

She let out a deep sigh.

"Okay, I'll just relax."

"Good."

When the elevator opened, they exited and went straight to a large, spacious hallway. At the end there was a door. Chase entered first and she followed. She saw the agents sitting at a long table and facing a man standing next to a large screen. Everyone's attention was focused on them and she swallowed.

"Sorry, we took a while. We came from Gida, I even made our spy a make over... Guys, Gabrielle De Jesus, she'll be my spy partner."

Chase pulled Gabrielle and presented her to the comrades. Everyone looked at the girl and the men applauded. Gabrielle became more and more nervous but she chose to be calm.

"Welcome to Men in Action, Miss De Jesus. I'm Ervine Sandoval-one of the Commanding Officer. The one next to me is Siege Jonson who is also a C.O."

One by one the agents present introduced themselves to Gabrielle and she could only smile.

"Have a seat, Miss De Jesus. We will start our meeting." said Ervine.

After Ervine spoke, everyone offered a seat and because of that, the girl was confused. But in the end it was Chase who decided where she would sit. It put her next to Aeon. She sat down.

"Are you ready to listen?" Siege said to everyone.

Junior Agents are also there.

"YES SIR!" everyone answers.

"That's good."

Ervine tapped on the screen and a large picture of an Art Museum appeared.

"There will be an illegal transaction at this museum, according to the update I gathered, Advance Tech will sell a blue print of a bomb to a terrorist group. This blue print is not random because the formula is atomic bomb. When it falls into the hands of that terrorist group, many will die. A bomb that can destroy an entire city or a small country. All we have to do is sabotage this transaction. We are going to steal the blue print. According to my source update, the blue print is hidden in one of the paintings in the museum. Chase and Miss De Jesus will enter the museum to look for the blue-print in paintings. Once they find the blue print, we will do the task."

"Chase and Miss De Jesus will use x-ray contact lenses for the blue-print search. We will be scattered around the museum simply to watch. We can't be complacent because the opponents around are also watching." Siege was second.

Ervine looked at Gabrielle.

"Any question, Miss De Jesus?"

She hesitated to look at Ervine.

"S-Sir, after finding the blue print, what will I do?" she asked boldly.

Ervine answered her with a frugal smile.

"You'll be a look-out. Junior Agent Faust is your going to be your partner. As Chase's group steals the painting, you two will be sitting in the restaurant opposite the museum."

She looked at Junior Agent Faust. She smiled at it and it also smiled back at her. Velvet suddenly raised his hand.

"Yes?" Ervine asked.

"Can I just be the look-out with Gabrielle? Someone like me should be with her to ensure her safety."

Velvet looked at her and simply winked. But Sky also raised his hand.

"Objection, Velvet. It's supposed to be me. Gabrielle and I are already close. She is safer with me."

Ervine's eyebrows met.

"Miss De Jesus is safer with Faust. You two should stop there if you don't want me to knock you down. Your flirtations have reappeared in your body. That’s why, I didn't choose you two because I know you just flirt Miss De Jesus. You two are ashamed." Ervine's sermon.

"Excuse me... But those are no shame." Clide groaned.

"I agree." second Nexus next to it.

Followed by the laughing of men and the serious plans for their activities. Gabrielle looked around. She did not know if the agents with her were serious or what. After their meeting, she immediately joined the training. She was only taught the basics because she was easy to do.

The next day... Gabrielle swallowed steadily before she got out of the car. She was wearing a green dress above the knee. She has her hair in order and she has make up. She was wearing the ruby pair earrings, they used to be heard by his comrades. She approached Chase who was wearing a suit. His hair is neatly ponytailed.

"I know nothing about paintings. What if someone asks me?" her language was weak.

"I also do not know about such things. When someone asks you, just lie. Say, spectacular, awesome, amazing or beautiful... Just flatter. Also, Archie is there to help you. Just follow what he says and let's focus on finding a blue print. "

"Okay, I understand."

"Ready?"

"Ready..."

They must have acted sweet and that is what they are doing now. They will pretend to be newlyweds on the honeymoon stage and both love paintings.

"Looks like this is true ah?"

Gabrielle laughed softly at the voice she heard from Junior Agent Archie. With Guile and the other Junior Agents inside the van not far away. They entered the museum. Lots of people there and everyone looks sassy and rich. Gabrielle swallowed, the many paintings there and she did not know where they would start.

"Let's start with the most expensive paintings. Those of Leonardo Da Vinci, Monett, and Picasso."

"It's up to you. I really have no idea about these." she whispered.

She just stared at Chase and they went to where the paintings he was saying were. When they got there they simply pressed the earrings they were wearing on their ears to make the x-ray of the contact lenses they were wearing work. So far, they have not found anything so they are still searching... They stopped at a specific area where huge paintings hung. They looked at the paintings one by one. But they saw nothing. She touches Chase who is busy looking at the paintings.

"What is that, sweetie?"

"Just a suggestion... I think, too obvious if the blue print is hidden in large and expensive paintings. If I, will hide something, it should be there only in the ordinary so as not to be noticed and suspected." She said softly.

Chase stared at her face for a long time.

"What?" she whispered to the man.

"I love you too, sweetie. Your so sweet!"

He quickly touched her chin and gave her a quick kiss on the lips. Gabrielle was stunned but lost her temper immediately when she heard a laugh in the background of her ear.

"Score!"

She did not know which of the crazy Junior Agents spoke. She looked at Chase who was smiling foolishly at her.

"I got my revenge..." his language was weak.

Her face warmed up...
