The sky above the industrial lands of Lastation was filled with usual smog and an even darker sky from the mass amounts of despite the sun doing it's best to beat down on the city.
Yet through the smog something tears the clouds apart to rush past faster than you can blink, here-there-and-gone.All it leaves behind is the roaring sound of thousands of pounds of metal screaming past the massive city, nearly outrunning it's own sound as it flies.
Massive grey beast with four wings, two tails, and a slender head.
Golden Eagles.
Behind and below rides a few helicopters going through the freshly opened sky towards the center of the city through the opening the Eagles created.The people look up to watch as they pass-by, enthralled by the spectacle.
"So," Dekota said "You do know what to talk about, right?"
"Yes Dekota," Jackie said fixing her headset, "It's been like 20 minutes."
"Just making sure."
It wasn't long before they hovered over the open plaza in front of the Basilicom and out the two came from their helicopter with the guards following after.
When they cleared the area the helicopters took back off and away followed by a final pass by from the Eagle before taking off into the distance.The commotion caused the goddess to come out looking less than pleased to say the least.
A woman with eyes of cyan and hair as pure white as the clouds with her fringe standing above her eyes and bangs caressing her face. Her suit was black and white in color and with a mechanical appearance. Her sleeves were pure black, with silver patches in the bicep and triceps area, her gauntlets were black with silver protrusions on the knuckle."What the hell are you doing making all this noise!?" She howled
"Making an entrance!" The cat responded with. "We need to talk a bit, needed to make sure you were awake!"
"Well I am. Just as annoying as Alex.""Ether way, we need to talk so let's get to it."
"Fine."
The goddess floated back into the Basilicom followed by the pair and their guards.
The inside was much like the exterior. Dark and industrial. More like a factory with all the drab and pipes running through the building than anywhere you'd find a god.
Soon they walked into a room with a long table in which the goddess sat at one end leading the cat to sit at the other end.
"So," Black Heart said, "what has you suddenly coming into my nation and making enough noise to wake the deepest resting ancient dragon?"
"Oh don't worry, just got an issue that might impact both of our lands."
"Then tell me." She said aggressively
"Near our border down by the Green Channel a flight of Eagles spotted a lab that appeared seemingly over the week. When it flew back over to record it's location it started getting pinged meaning that lab is trying to protect itself. Now unless you suddenly got an interest in the forest I'm gonna guess you didn't order it to be built."
"I did not. But then what exactly does this have to do with me?"
"Well," Dekota chimed in, "as far as we are aware this could be a lab to create some sort of biological or neurological weapon that they would release on Gamindustri."
"Or it's just a sudden candy factory and the trees around it are magical and can make the candy taste like actual clouds."
"Could you take this seriously!?" Black barked out
"I am, just having a bit of humor."
"I don't think this is something you're suppose to joke about Jackie."
"Don't worry Black, we're already planning a raid. We'll tear the place down before it even gets a chance to even make penicillin."
Black heart just sighed.
"Fine." She growled "But don't make a ruckus on our border."
"Relax. The entire reason I came here was so you didn't think I was trying something."
"Then is that all?"
"Yeah yeah. We'll be getting out of your hairs."
"Good. I have enough to deal with today."
The cat got up and out of the room followed by the goddess.
She walked out of the building and watched someone drive off as they walked into the plaza.
"She seemed especially irritable today. Did you notice that?" Jackie asked
"She normally is with you."
"I know, so mean to her neighbors."
The two reboarded their flight and when off back home.
