The halls of the Aqua base were swarming with activity, the likes of which Vincent had not seen in quite a while. Had they been recruiting? Whatever the case, it made him feel uneasy; as detached as he was to this organization and its causes, he couldn’t help but feel responsible for this new wave of recruits. Vincent was just outside the office of his new boss, the first name of whom he’d still yet to learn. Lanette stood next to him, smiling despite herself; both of them were. A few nights prior had been special for them. They had basically celebrated their early honeymoon; screw the consequences.
“Ready?” Vincent said to his fiancé. “Run me through the plan one more time,” Lanette replied. “Alright, we go in, ask for some time off for a wedding, and never come back. We’ll never hear from Aqua ever again.” “And I’m here to…” “Say you’re pregnant,” Vincent suggested. “He would buy it if you said it, but not if I did.” “I think I’m ready, then.” Hand in hand, the couple walked into the office. The new head of development was facing his window, back to the couple, talking on the phone. When his door opened, he apologized to whoever was on the line and hung up abruptly, turning to face them. “Lance, Saital. I have a mission for you two.” “Actually, sir,” Vincent began, but was cut off. “You both remember the fossil resurrection facility we lost a few days ago, correct?” “Sure, but-” “I need you both to go to the quarry about half a mile north of it. Bring a truck and some extra men, if you need to. But there are many….priceless….artifacts in that hole. High Commander Lucy deems it necessary to recover them.” “SIR!” Vincent asserted. Silence, then he continued. “Lanette and I need some time off.” “What?” Lanette spoke for the first time. “I’m pregnant, sir. I’d like to have some maternity leave.” The admin looked the two over a few times, then nodded. “I can arrange that. Three months from now.” “WHAT?!” the couple responded in unison. “She’s not pregnant enough,” said the man. “Three months, then you may….quit, or whatever newfangled plan of escape you had.” Defeated, Vincent turned to Lanette and sighed. “I can see why he’s in charge.” Then, turning to the man at the desk, “When did you want us to leave?” “Now, if you can. There shouldn’t be too much to recover, but bring everything you can back.” Then the man swiveled his chair around to face the window and picked the phone back up again, hitting redial to continue his chat. Lanette and Vincent exited the room, the door shutting behind them, and continued on down the busy hall to their next mission, for which they had no heart to complete.
