A little while after the commotion, you found yourself able to talk to Neon and Gekko. Not to mention the three of you weren't out of breath from laughing and could form coherent sentences now. (go you!)

"Look Y/N, Wingman is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He really does wanna watch the world burn sometimes." Gekko says, awkwardly, shooting stern glares at Wingman, who was still creating finger-paint masterpieces and couldn't care less.

"Hm, well I think he's just got a very... creative view of the world," you reply, smiling awkwardly at Gekko.

"That's a littleeee bit generous Y/N," Neon giggles still finding humour in this situation. "You really won't believe the kinda things this little guy has done to me in the few months we've been acquainted."

Neon pulls her phone out of her pocket and shows you a short video of Wingman appearing to draw a giant cat on Neon's bedroom carpet with a bottle of ketchup.

"He didn't even use my Lola's banana ketchup..." She sighs miserably, Gekko awkwardly pats her on the head. (like a cat tryna push a cup off the counter) Not knowing how to respond, you try to hold in laughter seeing her frustration towards something as random as ketchup, but hold it in with all your willpower.

OH NO. Your mind had completely slipped... Neon's phone catches your eye for a moment... 8:20AM?! You feel your soul leave your body and ascend out of this place.

Hell no, you WILL NOT be late to your FIRST day. (come on reader u got this bro) You quickly inform Gekko and Neon about your training, they're surprised, both having different schedules compared to you.

In a quick decision, perhaps not the wisest, Neon decides she will give you a piggyback ride to "the range" where most agents had their training, no exception for you.

It was a funny sight for everyone watching, Viper had a hand over her mouth, trying to hold in a laugh, similarly, Sova sitting next to her chuckled lightly looking in the direction of you three. Neon was crouched over, Gekko helping you hang onto her back.

"Neon- are you so sure about this?" You said nervously, fearing for her posture and slightly for your life. (GUYS WE DO NOT CARE ABOUT WEIGHT HERE, NEON GONNA PICK U UP EITHER WAY, OKAY? X] )

"Please Y/N are you seriously doubting my training? I'm ripped, trust me." She continued to tell you about her time back in the Philippines where she'd have to carry many people at once to safe locations during the war.

You fell silent listening to this, you forget that those around you were also suffering, silently. And no amount of paint, smiles and glitter could clear it. In a way you feel as if it brought you closer to them, you all had a common goal for peace. Just a shame so much blood had to be spilled for it...

"Okay you should be good now Neon!" Gekko says, after boosting you up a bit. He smiles brightly and gives Neon a thumbs up, and with that gesture the both of you are off, they didn't lie, Neon was as fast as light!

"Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" The sound fell from your lips with no control, this piggyback ride was comparable to roller coasters, this fun was distracting you from the training you were barrelling toward.

Neon was sprinting down long stretches of hallways so quickly, twists and turns, you envied her in a way. It must be so great to be twice as quick as everyone else, then again so much power had its drawbacks, you realised- feeling the static electricity spiking along Neon's shoulders. You figured being a pikachu 24/7 could get a little tiring.

There was also no way you would be able to remember the way here on your own... Oh well you'd worry about that later, maybe you could give google maps a second go after training. (F in the chat)
