Part two of the story XD
~THE O' SO GREAT RECEPTIONISTS~
“Wow, that’s the biggest building I’ve ever seen!” Mack said as she stared at the Shin-Ra building at awe. “Whew, I’m exhausted,” she said as she sat indian style in front of the gates surrounding the Shin-Ra building, “and hungry.” Her stomach growled and she put her hands on her stomach. “Knew I should have brought a back pack with some food. Man, walking from Hyrule’s Market-Place to Midgar can be a killer death march.” Her stomach growled again.
One of the Shin-Ra guards came up to her. “Hey! What are you going sitting here?” Asked the guard. Mack, startled, jumped to her feet. “Um… I’m here for an interview for the-“
“Yeah, yeah, whatever,” the guard interrupted. “Look, if you’re here to talk to President Rufus then do it already. Don’t just sit around starring at his building. He isn’t a telepath you know, so he can’t read your mind from here. You have to go up there and open your mouth.” The soldier turned around and walked off. Mack knew he was right. Rufus couldn’t read her mind, though she thought it would be creepy if the president could read her mind. She got up and walked over to the gate and opened it. Before she stepped inside the gate, the guard called her, “Hey!”
Mack turned around her head towards the guard, “yes?”
“Good luck on that interview, I heard it’s pretty harsh.” Mack smiled and nodded her head and then walked through the gate and into the Shin-Ra building.
“Wow,” Mack said looking around. “I hope they serve launch here.”
“HEY!” A voice called out to her making just about jump out of her skin. Mack kept looking around to try and spot whoever is calling her.
“Over here, stupid.”
Mack looked to her right and she finally spotted who was calling her. There at the receptionist desk, stood a giant purple octopus with oversized, pointy, teeth. “Are you blind or something? How could you have missed me? I was right in front of your puny little eyeshot range, “the octopus complained. “Umm…,” Mack stuttered, not knowing what in the world an overgrown purple octopus with overgrown teeth is doing inside the Shin-Ra building. “What? Haven’t you seen an octopus before? Oh yeah, I forgot, you’re blind,” the octopus said adding a bit of sarcasm at the end.
“You’re an octopus?”
“No, I’m a dog, woof….. woof…..” said the octopus making another sarcastic remark. Mack stared at the octopus for a moment, “umm….”
“OF COURSE I’M AN OCTOPUS,” bellowed the octopus, which made Mack jump. “Aside from being blind, you’re also deaf too,” continued the octopus, whom Mack thought was acting rather ill-mannered.
“I’m not deaf.”
“You sure do act like it.”
“Who are you?” asked Mack who was feeling quit insulted at the moment. “You dare ask who I am?” Mack nodded as she thought to herself, ‘Seems like you’re the deaf one around here.’
“WELL!” Said the octopus jumping in the air and landed in front of Mack. He put one tentacle on both of Mack’s shoulders. “Mwahahahaha, I am-“the octopus said as he took his tentacles off her shoulders and flexed his muscles and stars randomly appeared around him out of nowhere. “ULTRO, THE GREAT OCTOPUS! I’m the strongest, the bestest, the most awesome-“
“Stop that,” someone interrupted the O SO GREAT OCTOPUS, ULTROS! “You’re not Armstrong, dipstick,” continued the lady’s voice. The stars fell down and Ulrtos flopped his tentacles down and went mopping back to his desk. “Stop that, you’re not Armstrong,” mimicked Ultros in a low girly voice, though the woman heard him anyways and gave him a nasty look.
Ultros shrugged his tentacles, “What? I didn’t say anything. Must be hearing things,” he said in an innocent voice. The woman turned her head back to Mack. “My name is Scarlet, and let me guess, you’re here to see the President about becoming a Turk, right?”
“Yes ma’am,” replied Mack. “Follow me then and we’ll see if you have what it takes to be a Turk, though I hardly doubt you have what it takes.” Scarlet said in a very snobbish tone. Scarlet turned and started walking to Rufus’s office. Mack followed. Ultros stuck his tongue out at Scarlet. “Don’t think I didn’t see that,” Scarlet said to Ulros. Ultros slouched down in annoyance. When Scarlet and Mack were out of sight, Ultros whispered,” I swear that woman has eyes behind her head. Stupid 4-eyed freak.”
“I heard that,” screamed Scarlet. Ultros grumbles.
