Episode 2
*the next day Drix went to meet the guys to pass up his resume n be led to Elektra's campaign*
8the cells greeted him and led him to their 'base of operation'8
*as Drix entered the campaign office, which was situated in the liver area, he saw tht it was rather busy, just like a real re-election campaign going on*
8the cells lead him to the main room where a mature but young she-cell was lookung throgh some files8
Elektra: *looks up frm her files to see Greg and Unther leading Drix* Cousin Unther. Cousin Greg. Wht are u doing here? *points at Drix* Who is that?
Unther: Elektra this is Mr. Drixonal, he wishes to work for you.
Drix: G-Good morning, Miss Mitosis. I've heard much abt ur work and I...
Elektra: You're a cold pill, aren't you?
Drix: Yes, of course
Elektra: Which division? Where did u graduate?
Greg; 8nudged Drix forward8
Drix: I graduated frm the University of Chicago and I... *tells her everything of his credentials*
Greg; 8scratched his chin8
Elektra: Hmm...You have good credentials, and you were frm the same university my father was. A person I could trust
Drix: Thank you, Miss Mitosis
Elektra: Ur resume?
Unther; 8listened8
Drix: Ah *took it frm Greg* Here you go
Elektra: *takes it and reads it*
Greg; How does it look/
Elektra: Looks good so far. I guess a reference is not reli necessary, given the circumstances of ur arrival here. What would u like to do?
Drix: Any position is nice, as long as I can help create a better Hector
Greg; It's what we all want to do here.
Elektra: Very well. You'll work alongside with my most trusted advisor n campaign promoter Maximus. *presses intercom* Send Maximus in pls
Maximus; 8swayed into the room8 Yes Ms. Mitosis/
Drix: *had his first glimpse of seeing Maximus and could see why Hecro liked him so much* ~Hmm, he definitely has some nice qualities. Rather handsome in a way. I can see why Hecro drools ovr him~
Elektra: Maximus, meet Drixenol. He saw our cause and decided to join the campaign. He'll be working alongside u to promote the campaign
Maximus; Please to me you. 8held out his hand8
Drix: *took his hand and shook it* Pleased to meet u too. I look forward to work together with u
Maximus; 8nodded8
Elektra: OK. You may start immediately.
Drix: *nods n followed after Maximus*
Maximus; It's good to have your help.
Drix: Yeah. I'll try my best to help out
Maximus; 8smiled at him8
Drix: So, you look more like u came frm a female city. Are u reli?
Maximus; 8went red in the face8
Drix: Ah, so u are frm a female city. How did u end up getting here?
Maximus; Mouth to mouth.
Drix: Huh? *surprised*
Maximus; Hector nearly drowned one time and Christine gave him mouth to mouth.
Drix: Ah, the famous Christine. So u actually came frm the city of Hector's crush?
Maximus; 8nodded8
Drix: Tht is interesting. But...u don't seem to have any intention of leaving this city?
Maximus; Do you honestly think I'd go back there/
Drix: *surprised* Wh...What? Why? W...What's wrong with tht city?
Maximus; There are very few male cells in that city abd in time they slowly change to female.
Drix: Oh yeah, the hormonal theory in which a cell has to assimilate with the city they're living in. Come to think of it... *thinks bk a little* Hmm, there was a lot of male cells in Frank n the female cells here in Hector are rather masculine, like tht Maria...
Maximus; Yes but as the years go on.
Drix: Well, this is something I am curious. If they eventually turn, how will they procreate?
Maximus; Subdived but it's more cloning.
Drix: Ah, I see. You...don't want to end tht way, do u? Tht's why u stayed here?
Maximus; 8nodded8
Drix: So, what shall we do today?
Maximus; Well there's that new speech Ellie will give in a couple of days.
Drix: Like me to help u plan out the speech? Or should I make the arrangements for the venue or announcements?
Maximus; Ellie has the speech written it's planning we need to do.
Drix: Alright then. Show me the ropes, partner
Maximus; 8smiled and led him away8
*meanwhile, Ozzie n Leah r inspecting the trailer to see wat needs to be renovated to make a trailer restaurant*
Leah: Fixin' up zis cooker would be one.
Ozzie: Yup, n we need to modify this window here to make the counter to serve the food
*the babies watched frm the bunk bed at watever the adults r doing*
Leah; I could make some benches, chairs and tables.
Ozzie: Nice. I could make the menus, n get some good utensils for eating *hears the twins whining for milk n stopped to feed them* U knw wat, Leah girl?
Leah: Hmm/
Ozzie: I'm glad we broke up and decided to remain friends. I mean, I could finally just TALK to u like an individual n not always having to come up with those lame quirks just to impress u, u knw. Like reli talk to u as an equal. No offence, tht is
Leah: Not takin'
Ozzie: Are u...happy with Drix?
Leah; *smiled and nodded8
Ozzie: Tht's nice. I knw u've been rather dwn in the dumps, bt u must remember Drix loves u very much n would do anything for u, n he supports u all the way. He's a serious, dwn-to-earth man, maybe a little too dwn-to-earth, bt he means well
Leah; 8nodded8
Ozzie: So, planning to have any kids as soon as u tie the knot?
Leah; Not vet maybe in a vear or two.
Ozzie: Come to think of it, how ARE u guys gonna have kids? I mean, no offence, bt...well, Drix is kinda lacking a little in... "that area"
Leah; Ve'll find a way.
Ozzie: I wish u luck then *done feeding n burps the twins, putting them dwn on the bunker bed* Now wat shall we make for the ppl? Wat should be on the menu?
Leah;Vell a variaty of foods, different tastes, diets, allergies vat sort.
Ozzie: Could work. Let's write up a list
Leah; 8nods, getting out a pen and notebook8
Ozzie: *makes suggestions on the food they should make, asking for Leah's approval*
Leah; 8jot down all meals and suggestions8
Ozzie: *chks the list* I think tht should do it. Now all we need is to get rid of things tht shouldn't be in this trailer n we'll be in business
Leah; 8nodded and started moving things8
Ozzie: * took the babies out of the trailers, put them in a playpen outside the yard within his range n helped with the moving*
Leah; 8hauled out what they didn't need8
Ozzie: *took off the bunker beds* This we definitely don't need *arranges the things into the garage*
Leah; Ja. 8lifted them up and carried them in8
Ozzie: Thank Hector these things are detachable. Good ol' Hecro. He got a good bargain out of this trailer
Leah; 8nods8
*moments later, the trailer was clear save the necessities required*
Leah; Ve've done well.
Ozzie: Ho yeah. We make a great team, Leah girl
Leah; 8smiled8
Ozzie: So, wat shall we name our business for the timebeing? Any ideas?
Leah; Hmm. .
*the kids looked up at them*
Ozzie: *rubbed his chin, thinking as well*
Leah; Hard one.
Ozzie: How abt "Frank's Diner"? In honour of Frank?
Leah; 8looked up the name on the laptop8
Ozzie: Well? Is it taken?
Leah; 8looks8
*the kids peered ovr as well*
Leah: Doesn't look like it.
Ozzie: Good, then Frank's Diner it is, then
Leah; 8chuckles8
*finally the day ended n Hecro came home with a cheerful look on his face*
Thrax; You look happy.
Hecro: Yup. Got one of ur problems all solved. Well, both u n Drix's problem to be exact
Thrax; Oh/
Hecro: Heads up, everyone coz the marriage problem is solved. I got it all covered
Ozzie: What do u mean?
Thrax; What/
Hecro: I managed to convince Spryman to get u a nice spot for ur wedding, all expenses paid
Jared: With my persuasion, of course
Leah; 8sweatdropped8
Jared: Spryman threw a fit as usual, bt I said "If u wanna keep ur superheroes, ur gonna have to keep em happy as well". Nothing like a good blackmail *grins*
Ozzie: Wen can we have the wedding?
Hecro: As soon as ur ready. I just need to pop the word n Spryman will have The Mole find a good location
Jared: There's nothing The Mole doesn't knw abt in the city of Hector. We might need him
Thrax; 8nods8 We've waited too long.
Jared: So wen's the wedding? Can I be the best man?
Hecro: Hey, I wanted to be the best man
Ozzie: *chuckles* U can help carry our rings, Jared
Thrax; 8chuckles8
Hecro: So wen should u have the wedding?
Thrax; Ozzy/
Ozzie: Let's have it on the triplet's 1st birthday. Make it like a lump sum celebration. 'Sides, it'll be easier to remember for an anniversary
Drix: Tht's 3 weeks frm now, isn't it? Tht'll give us time to pick our wedding clothes. Wat do u think, darling?
Leah; Sounds good but can we be ready in time/
Jared: No worries. Chk this out *tosses Thrax a card*
Thrax; 8caught it and looked8
*it was a platinum privelege card only for the mayor n his staff's use*
Jared: Spryman made it for me the day before yesterday. Said it worth so much tht u could buy a tank with it. Just flash this to any store n they will get u anything in a jiffy, no questions asked
Thrax; Too much if you ask me.
Hecro: Sounds like Spryman got the hicks for u to let u have all this stuff
Jared: No way! I don't like him one bit! He's childish n a spoiled brat. 'Sides, he's doing it coz I'm the son of his fav superheroes
Thrax; 8groaned8
Ozzie: Anyway, at least it's covered. And we don't reli have to spend for it. Might as well enjoy it while it last. Finally, we can have a double wedding. Isn't it great, Leah girl?
Leah; *laughed heartily and nodded8
Drix: *smiled, glad tht his sweetheart is finally lightening up*
Hecro: This calls for a celebration! How's abt karaoke night?
Thrax; 8gulped8
Ozzie: What's wrong, love? Don't u like karaoke?
Thrax; Never was good at it.
Hecro: Oh u don't reli have to sing. Just enjoy the celebrationg with us. C'mon, let's go
Jared: Can I come?
Ozzie: Sorry, sonny, bt ur staying home to look after ur cousin n ur siblings. It's adults' tonight
Jared: Aww, Mommy~!
Leah; Just be careful kid.
Jared: Daddy, can I go, pls~?!
Thrax; No Jared not tonight.
Jared: *pouts*
Ozzie: Don't be such a sourpuss. U'll have ur chance, 10 yrs later
Jared: 10 yrs?! Aww, Mommy~! *topples ovr in an exaggerated manner tht looked funny*
Thrax; 8rolled his eyes8
Leah; Maybe ve zhould vind an mixed bar.
Ozzie: Mixed bar?
Leah; Viruses and cells.
Hecro: Would there be any, since this body is still rather young
Drix: I think I might knw a plc. Maximus told me abt it today.
Hecro: M-M-M-Maxim-m-m-mus?? *starts blushing n stuttering*
Ozzie: *rolls his eyes* Here we go
Drix: Yes, he told me there is a plc where germs, cells n anyone goes there without discrimination, all in for a good time, n has private karaoke rooms too. I think it's somewhere at The Shot
Thrax; Sounds good. 8he looked at Hecro then smacked him upside the head8
Hecro: Oow! Hey, watch it! D-Did he say anything abt me?
Drix: I dunno, I haven't asked. Let's not talk abt work right now, alright? We're supposed to celebrate *walks out to haul a cab*
Hecro: B-B-But Drix, u promised to ask... *his voice trailed off as he followed behind him*
Ozzie: Dang, I've nvr seen Hecro so out of character
Thrax; He better shape up.
Ozzie: I knw. Wouldn't want him to act like a stuttering fool n make an idiot of himself in front of tht Maximus of his
