Monday
Luna was sleeping peacefully, when her phone suddenly rang, waking her up. she groaned and buried her face deeper in between her pillows. She reached out to her bedside table to grab her phone. When she did, she immediately answered the call without looking at the caller's ID. "hello?" She said, her voice was still croaky. "Did I wake you up?" the person on the other line said. When Luna recognizes the voice, she sat up and looked at her wall clock. "God, I thought you called me because I was late again. Anyway, what's up Ace? Why are you calling me this early?" Luna asked, fully awake "Your training will start around 6 pm. you have the whole day to find yourself and Kelly a gown for tomorrow, refill your guns, sharpen your knives and blades, ready your masks and eye contacts, and other things that you need for tomorrow night. Understood?" Ace explained. "Alright. What about Adrien" Luna wondered, hoping that Adrien can come with them. "Luna, although he's your boyfriend, he's still a guy. He needs to find his own stuff alone. I hope you understand" Ace said, secretly smiling, knowing that Luna has been less intimidating ever since Adrien and she started dating. Luna blushed at his words, surprised that Ace knows that they're already dating. "O-Okay. I'll get ready. Bye," she quickly said and hung up. "What's happening to me! this is so unlike me" she yelled into her pillow. Her phone rang again. She sat up one more time and looked at the caller's ID. She smiled before answering. "Hey," she said with a sweet voice. "Good morning cupcake. Have fun today" Adrien said with a smile plastered on his face. Luna blushed intensely when she heard the nickname that he called her. "Where the hell did that nickname come from," she thought. "You to sweetie. Try to impress me with your outfit" she said, challenging him. "Is that a challenge I hear? Well then, we'll see which one of us will become speechless tomorrow night" he responded, now ready to find the perfect outfit to show Luna. "We'll see then" Luna responded back. "I'm going to take a shower. I'll see you later. I love you" Adrien said, making Luna blush even more. "I love you too" she answered before hanging up. she just sat there, staring at her phone with bright red cheeks. She was so flustered, she didn't hear Kelly coming in. "looks like you already have a blush on" Kelly mentions, snapping Luna out of her thoughts. "shut up. Let's eat breakfast, I'm hungry" Luna said before walking past Kelly to go out of her room Kelly chuckled and followed behind.
"so, what are we going to look for first? The things that we need to get are; make-up, gowns, shoes, our personalized purse in a store near the headquarters, different colored contact lenses, and let's buy some fake nails, just for the heck of it" Kelly explains as they drink their coffee in the living room. "let's get our gowns last. How about we look for make-up first?" Luna suggested before taking a sip of her coffee. "Good for me" Kelly agrees.
After their light breakfast, they both got ready and headed to the mall. Kelly wore some casual clothes and wore her colored contacts, and Luna wore some casual clothes as well and didn't tie her hair. She didn't put on her contacts nor make-up, just in case someone recognizes her that's from her day job. They both have blades that can't be detected when they go through a security check and are placed under their shoes.
Once they arrived at the mall, they went into a Mac store and looked for some make-up to use tomorrow night. "Lu. Look at this" Kelly calls out for Luna when she found an eyeshadow palette that caught her attention. Luna walked towards her and looked at the colors of the eyeshadow palette Kelly was holding. "It's stunning" Luna commented. "I freaking know right," Kelly said in agreement. "this will totally suit you" Kelly added. "you think so?" Luna asked, taking the palette from Kelly's hand. "definitely" Kelly assures. "I'll buy it then. I just need to find a few more things then we can head on buying out contacts" Luna said as she looked around the store. Kelly picked up some stuff that she needs as well and they both paid for it before walking out of the Mac store.
They continued with their shopping and got their gowns as well. They then went to the store near the headquarters where they will get their personalized purses. "Hey, Luke. Are the handbags ready?" Kelly asked as they walked into the little store. "Good day Kelly. Luna as well" the man greeted and bowed. It was safe to mention their real names in the store since the people in it are trustworthy. "Luke" Luna greeted back as she nodded at him. "Your handbags are ready. It's in our stock room, please follow me" Luke said and walked ahead. Luna and Kelly followed behind. Luke pulled out two purses from a black metal box once they arrived in the stock room. "A black and gold handbag that is made to hold in your favorite gun and some of your blades. But it can't be detected by a metal detector as long as it is in the purse for Ms. Luna" Luke said as he gave Luna her personalized purse. "I love it. Thank you" Luna said and thanked Luke. He just nodded and proceeded with Kelly's bag. "For Ms. Kelly. As requested, I made you a pure velvet black handbag where you can put all your knives and blades. As well as with Luna's, your weapons cannot be detected by a metal detector as long as it's in the bag" Luke explains as he gave Kelly her bag. "This is going to be fun. Thank you so much, Luke!" Kelly exclaimed and was first to head out of the store. Luna was about to follow her when Luke suddenly called out for her. "Be careful sweetie. We don't want the boss' daughter to get hurt" Luke mentions, knowing that Ace treasures Luna so much. "Thank you, Luke. Have a relaxing night" Luna said with a smile before walking out of the store as well. "why is she less intimidating?" Luke's friend asked as he watched Luka and Luna talk. "She's finally in love and has accepted it" Luke explained with a big smile on his face. his friend hummed in response and went back to work.
They both headed to the headquarters and went to the training room. "took you long enough" Adrien greeted when he saw Luna and Kelly entering the training room. "it's a girls thing" Kelly teasingly said before walking into their locker room to change and to remove her contacts. "hey cupcake" Adrien said as he walked towards Luna. "Hey, sweetie" Luna responded. Adrien cupped her face and kissed the top of her head. "so, do you think you're going to beat me?" he asked as he looked into her amber eyes. "totally. Now, if you'll excuse me, I will be changing into something more comfortable" Luna excused herself and went to the locker room to change as well.
The three of them trained for hours. Each one of them made sure that they are well trained for tomorrow night. They were so focused on their own course in the training room that they didn't hear Ace coming in. "may I have your attention" Ace said. The three of them stopped what they're doing and walked up to him. "I have requested someone to make all of you some bulletproof clothes that you can use for tomorrow. It will be hidden in certain places in the event's place later. So, I decided to show you your new working clothes before we hide them in the place" Ace explained, making the three of them jump and scream in excitement. "follow me" he added and walked ahead. They followed him to another room on the same floor. Once they got in, their jaw dropped. There were three containers. The two contain black jumpsuits for Luna and Kelly. Each jumpsuit has a belt around the hip area where Kelly and Luna can put their guns, and a belt around the right thigh where they can put their knives. They also have black soundproof combat boots that have a hidden blade underneath. And as Ace mentioned, the whole outfit is bulletproof. The other container has Adrien's outfit. A black turtleneck that has long sleeves. A black combat pants that come with a belt that can hold his guns and has a lot of straps on it to hold his knives. He gets a pair of combat boots as well with the blade underneath. "on this side, are your wireless earpieces that are very hard to notice when you are wearing it, black masks and black gloves as well" Ace explains as he walks to the other side of the room. He opens the container that has the earpieces in it and gave it to the three. "it's better to wear these even before you enter the event's place" he mentioned. "shit. Why did I become nervous all of a sudden" Luna suddenly said while they were taking a closer look at their outfits. "I'm sure you'll do great. You are agent 001 after all" Ace said as he gave Luna a tight side-hug. "I think I'm afraid of seeing my actual parents there" she whispered, trying not to let Adrien and Kelly hear. "As long as you have your earpiece with you, you will be fine," Ace said with an assuring voice. Luna just nodded and heaved a sigh. "Okay, everyone. Go home and take as much sleep as you can get. You have a big event tomorrow" Ace said in a loud voice. The three cheered and went out of the room to get their stuff and go home.
