YM778.TV Chapter 49
“Holy shit kid! Are you starting a harem?!” Oscar exclaimed.
We immediately dispersed and we sat down laughing at his remark.
“What’s up old man? Just told them the story.” I said.
“Oh, why aren’t the three of you mounting him yet?” he joked.
Kaley and Rin turned beet red while Olivia is oblivious to the joke. I threw a biscuit at him which actually hit him in the face.
“The f.u.c.k?! I was just trying to lighten the mood. When he told me that, I had to bring him to a club! He’s a slobbering mess but did he give you the look?” Oscar said.
The three became silent as he said that.
“Hah! 40 years in the military, 40 years! It’s like facing someone with a tank while you’re holding a .22! I almost crapped my pants when I saw him.” he exclaimed.
I gave a faint smile and I wiped the tears on Kaley’s face.
“Anyway, kid! The president wants to talk to you.” He said.
“WHAT?!” Everyone in the room shouted.
I fell off the bed from what he said. He handed me the satellite phone and I answered when it rang.
“Hello? This is Sky Ishiyama, to whom am I speaking to?” I said politely.
“Yo! This is Rod! The President!” I heard from the other line.
“Rod? What the f.u.c.k?! Why’s he so casual?!” I said to myself.
The rest are hearing a bit from the speakers and they are flabbergasted as well except for Oscar. Well, he’s been speaking to him for a while.
“Hello~? You still on the line kid? Call me Rod too, Oscar there told me about your situation there and I’m pretty impressed. I’d give you an honorary rank If I could, but I’m too far from you. Good job on starting small, anyway, I’ve sent someone on your location. She’ll arrive there tomorrow; you can tell her whatever you want and she’ll do it without question. Be ready though.” He said.
“Umm, I-”
“Anyway, that’s it for now, bye!” he said abruptly.
*click*
“What?!” we four exclaimed.
“Is that really the president?” I looked at Oscar.
“Weird huh? He surprised me too, I thought I was talking to a surfer dude. What he didn’t mention on the broadcast is that a few more countries like the UK, China, Russia and Germany managed to send a few of their people around the globe. They’ve sent a unit to them and they are tasked with monitoring the situation on the front lines.” He said.
“So, something like a special unit? How did you even convince the president to send us a person like that?” I asked.
“Forgetting my old rank kid? I still have some connections in the army so I told him about it. I also learned from your silver tongue and must’ve fibbed a bit to make us look good. What’s coming is the real deal though.” He said.
I nodded. “That would be a great addition to our fighters. Aside from me, you, Jared, Kaley and Jenny, we’re the only ones who could hold a gun properly. I’ve started on training some of them though they’re still at the beginner’s level. What’s her nationality though?” I said.
“He didn’t say though, what do you guess?” he said.
“No idea, what’s important is that she’s here to help even if she has a hidden agenda. We’ll use her as she uses us.” I said frankly.
“Think she would be a spy kid?” he said.
“Maybe, we just need to be wary.” I said.
“Won’t she be dangerous then?” Kaley asked.
“What do you mean? I’m here though?” I said confidently.
“Wow.” She mouthed. However, she smiled cheekily.
“On a serious note, we just need to keep our outmost attention on her but we still need to treat her as our own. We have a common enemy here. If she has something bad planned for our country, she would’ve just killed the president and it’s done, this country just crumbles.” I said with a pensive look.
Oscar nodded and he said, “No use mulling over it tonight kid, we’ll find out tomorrow. Here!” he throws me a pair of keys and he drags a huge case at my door.
I gave a confused look but he said, “That’s the key to the M134, you think I wouldn’t notice you lovebirds?”
“You’re really giving that? I never agreed to the wager though and I think you’ll just make some BS reason to keep it.” I replied.
“Hah! I would, but I swore on my wife kid!” he said.
“What’s going on?” Olivia asked.
“Well, I’ve been working tirelessly for this guy here to be with someone permanently but he seemed to be waiting for someone! I’ve only managed to get him with somebody when he’s piss drunk or when I knock him out.” He said with his hands up like he has no choice.
“Wait, you’ve knocked me out before?! When did that happen?!” I was surprised.
“You know… pills, blunt-force trauma, Chloroform. Semantics. Anyways he told me the story of you two when I saw you at the airport and I said that I’ll give him the minigun if you guys became together. I did saw you guys locking arms at Andrew’s place.” He explained to Kaley.
She blushes but then she glared at me. “Did you just use me to get a gun?!” she said.
“No! We’re already…you know, when he told me, he didn’t know at that time. Anyway, just keep it! I just like how it looks but I call it a waste of ammo…” I trailed as I threw the key back at him.
He suddenly exploded.
“Kid?! What the fu-! AHHH!!!” he shouted more unintelligible terms until he calmed down.
“Hahaha! It’s too much man, I’m not the Terminator! But you know what I think? We could ask Raphael to mount it on top of your SUV!” I suggested.
“Too much?! It’s a f.u.c.k.i.n.g weapon of destruction! …wait. That sounds like a great idea! We’ll make it detachable and it could be turned by a guy manning it! Betty is bulletproof and it’s gonna be a mobile fortress! Hahaha! Your words kid! It’s mounted on my car so the gun is still mine!” he shouted while he started to drag the gun back down.
“This old man is so noisy sometimes; I wish I could place a suppressor on him.” I said.
They laughed and Kaley asked, “Does he really have a minigun?”
“Yeah, he checks it every day before he sleeps. Kind of like his sleeping ritual.” I said.
“Are we gonna sleep now? There’s too much that happened this night… I’m exhausted yet I still have energy…” Olivia said weakly. The two also nodded at that thought.
“Wait a minute, I have an idea…” I grabbed a chair and then I tried to grab a box from the top of one of my cabinets. I grabbed a small device and I hooked it on the TV and I turned on the laptop, the three saw what I brought out from the box and their eyes lit up.
I waved the remote and I passed a book towards them. “So, who’s going first?” I said.
The three looked at each other and they pointed at me. “You sing first Sky!” Olivia shouted.
I gave a sigh of helplessness and then I flipped through the pages of the song book as I lay down the microphone. As I began to browse to the pages Kaley tapped me. “Umm Sky, I forgot to ask, is this room also umm, soundproof? Because you know… it might disturb people when you know… we sing.” she said as her face gives me a look and I understood what she’s implying.
“Yes, of course. Not only would it attract zombies, it could also disturb the others sleeping if this room is not soundproof. I had this room modified so it could be turned off or on at will, If I recall correctly, the tech is elastic tubes that retracts and detracts with a push of a button It does all the work needed. It’s a pretty cool thing its…” I explained as I assured her then she nodded silently after she blushes.
