Drowsily, you wake up in the car curled up in your seat. The door begins to open slowly beside you, and you decide to remain with your eyes closed, pretending to still be sleeping. Hearing familiar voices begin to talk, you decide to listen.
"Wow,, ¡Bonita! I hope she ends up to be my escort, haha."
"I don't know about the escort thing, but you should have a lookie here.. uh.. please don't mention to her that I still have this." You then hear paper begin to crinkle.
You begin to hear some indistinct chatter before, "Cute one! Woohoo! Suck it, amigo!"
"Shut up and wake her already! We'll be late."
You feel a nudge on your shoulder followed by your name being whispered softly in a Spanish accent. Deciding it was the right time to 'wake up', you opened your eyes to a pair of bright luminescent goggles in your face.
"Morning amiga!" He was leaned over you, his body movements looking like he was containing a bit of excitement. "You ready for your first day?" Hesitantly, you nodded, beginning to try and step out of the car while Octane moved out of the way. When on your feet, you stretched your arms into the air and yawned.
"Lets get my things I suppose,, thanks for letting me sleep guys." You admired Mirages 'thank you' grin but, simply stared blankly at Octane.(You can't really see his emotions) After already beginning to wander to the back of the moving van, you make some conversation to fill the silence. "S-so,, what will I be doing when we get in?"
Mirage proceeded to answer without any pause, you can tell he's done this before. "After arriving at the designated planet, we'll bring you to check-in, the cleric with give you your legend assignment, and you get to live with said legend in their apartment's spare room." He followed you to the back along with Octane, and they slid open the van's trunk.
"Live with them? Couldn't that be dangerous?" You grabbed a box and watched as mirage and Octane grabbed the other two.
"No, not anymore." Octane finally gave an input while shutting the door of the trunk. "Legends are threatened with the loss of their jobs if they hurt their escort in any way. All my escorts in the past have barely even spoken to me," He sighed painfully. "Gee, I hope its different this time around. I get lonely in my apartment."
Mirage turned and chuckled. "They're not for our company, but Octane is right, I've had one tell it's unprofessional to say bamboozle. Bam-freakin-boozle!" Mirage tilted his head towards a location, signaling to follow him. "Unbelievable." You watched as the Trickster then angrily muttered to himself.
Following behind, you approach a large building with a giant apex logo plastered on it. Before commenting on the massive structure you say, "I hope people don't begin to think of me that way, I wanna be a nice escort." You reached what seemed to be a staircase to a car-sized spacecraft in front of the building, after shaking your head, you felt it would be important to ask some questions. "So how does this rocket thingy work?"
"Hyper-space, amiga. We'll be there so fast you'll barely even notice we've left this planet. I love this thing to pieces." Octane and Mirage walked up the steps while you pursue behind. Watching as they placed down the boxes in the rocket, you mimicked them, putting your box in it as well.
When all three of you were safe inside the spacecraft, the stairs retracted into themselves and became a door, then closing securely. It was a tight fit, and you could see Mirage begin to sit in the tiny cock-pit to click the button to lift-off.
"Mirage, amigo, Wait!" Before Octane could officially stop Mirage, he pressed the button, sending both you and Octane flying backward. Shutting your eyes tight, the rocket sent itself into space, and in a few seconds, you could feel it land like it didn't even take off.
