A Time of Change for Inker Belle

[WildfireMicro 421]

"so what you're telling me is" Davy begins to say to his sister Inker Belle "is that we are not going to Europe?"

 

 "Nope" Inker Belle answers "the VHLE is going down, at least for now. Not enough resources to sustain it or something like that. A shame really, I was hoping to explore more of the human world so I was kind of looking forward to it. But hey, now we can spend more time in Vegas I think"

 

 "Well that's good at least" Davy shrugged "I mean I do owe some people here in Vegas some- I'm kidding, relax sis!" He quickly stopped joking as soon as he saw that Inker was in no way amused by that.

 

 "Hmph, don't give me a scare like that" Inker poutsat her brother before lowering the fist she was about to pound into him "I am supposed to be looking out for you remember? You better not be doing really stupid things like that, you know I really hate gambling!"

 

 "Yeah yeah I know sis" at that point, Inker Belle's phone rang with the caller ID of the Las Vegas GM. 

 

 "Hello, this is Inker Belle" she answers

 

 "Hey, this is your new GM, my name is Sadie" the voice says at the other end.

 

 "Wait what? Did the other GM step down? Davy look up the Las Vegas GM situation" Inker instructs her brother.

 

 "Let's see... Yeah looks like there is a new GM in Vegas" Davy replies

 

 "What?!" Inker says, slightly annoyed and pouting "why did no one tell me beforehand?"

 

 "Well with the E going away for now, things have been pretty crazy so I have not had time to really contact you until now" Sadie replies "but anyways, I'm glad to finally be able to talk to you. You were a key piece of the team last season ever since you were traded here, so I'm hoping we can get along and work towards another cup run"

 

 "Oh of course" Inker smiles "I'm still reeling from all the change, so I'm sorry if I sound tired"

 

 "Oh it's no problem" Sadie says "now I would want to meet in person at some point, so do you have a time we can meet?"

 

 "Yeah we can do it tomorrow or on Wednesday" Inker replies "I'm free on both days, as I don't have to pack and prepare to move to Europe for a season anymore"

 

 "Nice, I'll schedule it for Wednesday at 1 PM on my calendar if that works for you"

 

 "Sounds good to me!"

 

 "Alright looking forward to talking to you Inker. See you then!" Sadie says before she hangs up. At that, Inker sighs slightly before she goes to look in the mirror. Her previously long orange tentacles has been cut to her shoulders, and freckles had appeared once again on her face. Her cheek now had a barely visible small scar on it, but luckily she had all her teeth as they are stronger than human teeth.

 

 "Scars of war huh?" Davy joked lightly.

 

 "Yeah but it could be worse" Inker shrugs "now I'm hungry as heck, so let's go down to the Sea Shack!"

 

 "Sounds good to me!"
