Wrap Me in Gold ; Reader X Midas (Fortnite)

Chapter 9 | Not So Proper

The clock ticks as your eyes skim through the paper in front of you, reading the agents names and their part of the mission. You didn't read too much into it but you summed up what they had to do and it was quite interesting. You matched the names with faces to remember who was who. Their names started to click a bit in your head as you remember reading it at home when you played the game. You finally finished putting the papers in the correct files, or so you hope you did. "I think I did that right.." You whispered under your breath as you put your elbows on table, cracking your knuckles looking at the stack of files in front of you. You let out a sigh and pushed yourself away from the desk in the mini white wheeled chair. Standing up you patted down your skirt so it wouldn't be folding from sitting for so long. Pushing your seat under the desk you grabbed the blue files and made your way out the door, leaving it slightly open behind you.

Walking out, you realized you didn't check what time it was. This made you look for the nearest clock on the wall. You saw the small hand on the 10 and the big hand on the fourth line after 4. '10:24'. He should be in his morning meeting with the agents. You changed your direction from his office to the stairs that lead to the first level. Skipping down the many stairs, you took notice of the first level room, Bracer still working at the front desk on who knows what, and the henchmen walking around minding their business but still staying on guard as they clutch onto their weapon of choice, very scary but you knew they were good and really friendly. They would never dare disrespect anyone in the building as they are frightened as to what could happen to them if they disrespected Midas in any way.

Taking a sharp right into the hallway where the meeting room was, you encountered a henchmen at the door like the first time. You assumed there would always be one on guard outside of the door, it only made sense in case something were to happen. You smiled as you approached him eyeing his suppressed SMG, you recognized it as one of the guns you'd use to shoot down any wood being built by an opponent. Walking up you awkwardly told him "I just needed to..." You pointed at the door with your left hand, as your right was holding your assignment. "Midas.." You finished. He already knew what you come for as he nodded and opened the door for you. "Thanks." You whispered quietly sneaking past him, closing the door shut behind you. Hugging the files with both arms now, you slowly walked over to Midas in his gold chair. You listened to him talking to his agents, not noticing your presence. "and with that, we'll make our way over to the shadow hideout at pleasant park and next to sweaty sands by tomorrow night, when they'll least expect it since we usually attack on early mornings, they won't even see it coming." He spoke. "We're doing both of them in the same night?" Skye questioned.

"Correct, I know it seems like a lot to handle all in one night because we rarely have to do more than one mission under 24 hours, but I know you agents are strong enough to handle a little more work than usual." Midas replied as his elbows propped up on the table, tapping his fingers together slowly, like a villain in the movies. By now you've made your way to stand next to him, he still hadn't acknowledge you but you didn't take to offense knowing that he was too busy to talk. You scanned the faces of everyone as Midas made that announcement. "What if it's too much to handle boss? Yeah we're strong and all, but after one mission, we're usually almost beat and ready to go to bed." Tina argued. "You guys will be fine, but in case of emergency, we'll have backup hiding around Skye's campgrounds that's around the island if we need to call them for help. I also expect you guys to get plenty of rest tonight, be in your beds by 9pm." He ordered looking at each agent sitting in front of him as they nodded back. "You heard the man Peely, turn off that crap you call music at night so I can get proper rest." Tina turned her head at the banana that now has a shocked and offended facial expression. "What the hell dude? My music is not crap and you could've asked me nicer than call me out in front of everyone!" He barked back. Tina shrugged with a grin followed by a few giggles from the other agents.
