Azure

Man am I in Danger

Jean stood there silently, he had had no idea that the man in front of him was Shone Allen, he didn't look like how he had pictured him. He looked young, with nice smoothed black hair and dark blue eyes, he looked like a ladies man. He didn't look like a someone who ran a large corporation of creating, selling, and watching Azure. So Jean just looked at him for a moment not saying a word, just trying to understand what he was seeing. Shone just looked at him and waited as if it were a normal occurrence, then when he was tired of not getting a reaction he coughed slightly and shook Jean out of his phase. 

"So, Colonel, I recently heard that you were being recruited as caretaker?"

Jean nodded.

"Yes, sir, they just don't know which Azure that I should watch."

Shone nodded, and held his chin between his fingers in thought. He then turned to Jean and smiled.

"I know."

"Huh?"

"You should take care of Number 11."

Jean stared at him dumbfoundly.

"Excuse me?"

"Well Number 11 has always been a huge troublemaker, and it usually takes ten of our soldiers to track and keep her down, but you, Colonel, did it by yourself, so I think that you are the suitable man for the job."

Jean stared at him for awhile hoping that it all was just some hallucination that he would snap out of in a minute.

Shone, taking his lack of rebuttle as a yes, nodded and grabbed his arm to drag him off. Jean let himself be lead and Shone lead him to an infirmary, inside the infirmary sat Number 11 and Chase. Number 11 sat on a stool as the doctor cleaned he wound on her cheek, her arm was put in a sling and hung limply at her side. When the doctor finished she handed some medication to Chase who slid it into his blazer pocket. Chase then looked up to see Shone and Jean and saluted then walked over to them.

"Chase, how is Number 11?"

"Fine, sir, the doctor said that her arm would be completely healed in 9 weeks but able to remove the sling in a day."

(Authors note: I know that it actually takes 12 to 16 weeks and 3 days, but since Number 11 is an Azure, she heals faster so it takes less time.)

Shone nodded and turned to Jean.

"Make sure she takes her meds, cause I know that she won't."

Jean nodded.

"Sir?"

Shone turned to Chase.

"Colonel Jean will be taking care of Number 11 now."

Chase looked surprised and turned to Jean, he then slid his hand in his blazer and removed the prescription and handed it to Jean who repeated, and slid it into his blazer.

"Good. 11!"

Number 11 turned to him.

"Yes?" she said bitterly.

"Colonel Jean here is going to be your new caretaker."

She turned to look at Jean and gave him a once over, then turned to Shone.

"I told you i'll only go with a caretaker who Rob accepts, and when you repay me."

Shone grimaced.

"I know, but I don't care."

He smirked.

"Um...well, since you don't care and I do, then I will make this man here life a total disaster."

Shone glared at her and she glared right back.

"Number 11, are we seriously going to repeat last years scheme all over again?"

She nodded.

"Hell yes we are."

"Why?"

"Because I hate you."

"And why is that?"

"Because you owe me a lot and still haven't even tried to repay me."

"Who says that I have to?"

"Well me and whatever caretaker decides that they have had enough of my bullshit."

Jean watched as a vein appeared on his forehead.

"Very well Number 11... I will repay you."

She smirked.

"But."

"But?"

"Only if you manage to not get in trouble for a whole year."

"A Year?!"

"Yes, a year. For if you can do that, then I'll finally know that I can trust you enough to let you off scott free."

The girl grimaced, then seemed to weigh her options in her head.

"One year...?"

"Yes."

"Hmm... and with him?"

She looked at Jean, scrutinizing him.

"Yes."

"Hmm...."

Jean honestly thought that she was going to say no.

"Fine Fine I will I will, but you better start your watch for I'm not waiting a second more for you to complete your deal."

Shone nodded.

"So deal?"

Shone held out his hand. 11 looked at it and smirked.

"Deal."

She then shook his hand, and her fire red eyes shone with clear hatred and evil.
