The Machine [Open/Accepting]

"Working for the guy who stuck me in a tank for a year for free... I think I may be going mad." She replied. "Aren't you even going to bother bribing me?"  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Alright. Alright. You don't have to. It was just a suggestion" Damien replied with a chuckle.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Cheep!" She replied before chuckling as well. "Then again, there isn't really much you could offer me, is there." She told him. "I mean, other then cold hard cash. And that would require us being face to face in a situation where you won't have an army waiting to ambush me. Oh, the life of a humble information salesman." She sighed dramatically for comical effect.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Uh huh...." Damien said unenthusiastically. "Well, anyway. I should get going to start making arrangements. It was nice to talk to you."  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Boooooooo!" She said over the phone. "I'm going to make you eat that attitude!" She said playfully. "Bye Damien."  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Goodbye" Damien said, then hung up. He turned to Jian. "I guess we have some guests to pick up" he said.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Really?" He asked. "Who? Is it Monica?" He asked with hope.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"No, it was the Grand Priestess. Then I spoke to Shadow. I've been informed that Monica and a few other soldiers have made it to Mt. Angelo and are awaiting to be picked up and brought back home" Damien said. "This certainly is a load off of our backs."  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Thank goodness." Jian said with relief, putting a hand on his chest. "I agree. That saves us quite a bit of trouble."  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

Damien nodded. "I'll arrange the transportation. Then we can decide the fate of the treacherous slime we have locked up" he said.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Yes, Sir." Jian replied. "Are you going on the trip over there, or will you hold down the fort?" He asked.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"It doesn't matter to me. Whichever you want to do. I know one of us needs to stay here just in case anyone else tries anything funny. Which are you up to?" Damien asked.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"I'm not picky. I'd like to meet up with Monica, though I'd rather not meet with Shadow if I didn't have to." He admitted.  

[Eternal_PrinceOfFire]

"Ah, I see. We'll I'll go then, if you'll hold down the fort here. Make sure none of our prisoners try to escape and if you suspect anyone else, have them immediately arrested. If it turns out they weren't in on it, we can release them later. We can't take any chances" Damien said, then began to head off. He turned around for a moment. "I'll let you know when Monica is here so you can come give her a big hug" he said in a teasing manner, then gave Jian a wink. The Absolute Leader then went off to organise transportation.  

[lil_lollypop1]

"Thank you. I greatly appreciate it." Jian giving him a nod, blushing slightly from the hug comment. He then went to go work on the paperwork.
