Note:Before we start, I want to say I appreciate you reading this far! I really do! Anyways, this part should introduce some new characters! Anyways, lets begin!

--------------------------------------------------------------

TNTina's face lit up as she approached Maya

"Hey there Maya! Haven't really seem ya around here much in a while!" Lifting up her hand, in a closed fist as a gesture for a fist bump.

Maya understood the gesture, and fist bumped TNTina's gloved hand

"Yeah, I've been on some missions with Peely-"

"Let me guess, barely keeping him alive on missions?" TNTina interrupted, laughing a little.

"Well, I'd think that Peely would have something to say about that." Maya said, looking at Peely soon afterwards, with the other agents beginning to take more interest in the conversation, knowing how Peely.....performed in missions in the past, if you could even refer to it as performing.

"Oh right! Well, on my mission with Maya today, I was actually able to protect her, and help us escape!" Peely said with pride.

"Wait really? Thats great! I am so glad that you are finally improving Peely!" Skye said happily, high fiving Peely.

"Me too, but be careful once you start going on the more...dangerous missions, alright Peely?" TNTina warned

"I will, don't you worry about it Tina!" Peely responded.

While the agents continued talking they were bound to, and did eventually notice one particular agent that wasn't. Meowscles. Instead, he was looking around The Agency, with a worried look, as if he was looking for something important that he lost.

Skye and Peely were the first ones to notice.

"Hm...." Peely said observing Meowscles' behavior.

Skye walked up to Meowscles

"Hey Meowscles, whats wrong? You look like you're looking for something, and like you are worried about it."

"Well...its just that....I'm worried about Brutus. We haven't seem him for almost, or about a week by now. I think something happened to him..." Meowscles said, looking outside The Agency, seemingly worried.

"To be honest...I think you may be right. I have been worried as well. Maybe we should tell Midas maybe he could figure something out, or send one or more of us on a mission to The Grotto!" Peely responded to Meowscles.

"You're right, Skye and I will go talk about it with Midas."

And with after Meowscles said they, Meowscles and Skye left, going inside of Midas' office, and closing the door behind them.

Midas looked up at Skye and Meowscles.

"I see that you two are back from the mission I assigned, how did it go?" Midas immediately asked his two agents

"It went well, we did get caught by a couple henchmen, but Skye and I quickly took care of them, and quietly enough so that no one heard. We found out that they plan on attacking The Shark soon, by next week." Meowscles told Midas, looking around his office a bit.

"Good, I will alert the henchmen at The Shark about this, and provide some resources to help you fight, Agent Skye. Good job on your mission today, you two may leave now, and relax for the day."

"Wait, boss, we have something to tell you, something that may be of concern to you, and us." Skye said quickly

"Hm? And what would that be?" Midas asked, with genuine curiosity.

"Brutus. We may have an idea of what happened to him. I bet you may have noticed that you haven't seen him at all, and Meowscles and I think that something might have happened to him. We don't know what, but we have a bad feeling about it..." Skye said, gaining a worried expression just simply at the thought of what could have happened.

With a bit of a pause, Skye continued. "Could we, or any of the agents, at least, perhaps go on a mission to The Grotto to check it out? Brutus may be there, and we will be able to check up on it on top of that."

Midas thought about Skye's idea, and made a decision.

"What you say is true, this could prove to be useful. Alright, tomorrow I will send you, Meowscles, and TNTina on a mission to The Grotto. If necessary, I will send a team to escort you out of their with a Choppa, however, you will need to alert me about this ahead of time, understood?" Midas explained

"Understood, boss." Skye and Meowscles said at the same time.

"Good, now you two should enjoy the rest of your day, and be prepared for your next mission tomorrow." Midas said, the two leaving his office afterwards.

Meowscles and Skye told TNTina about the mission they have with her tomorrow.

"Hey, TNTina, we have a mission tomorrow, with Meowscles as well. We will be heading to the Grotto to investigate it, and to hopefully find Brutus."

TNTina seemed a little surprised when told, but not for long.

"Wait really? Alright, I'll bring my boom bow, as always to be safe, and some extra grenades. I honestly have a bad feeling about what may have happened to Brutus himself, and there is probably a good chance The Grotto is involved if that is the case. Well, I'm gonna go to my room now, see you two tomorrow!" TNTina said, waving to the two and heading to and inside her room.

Skye and Meowscles were hanging out with each other for a bit before they went to their respective rooms.

Before they left, Meowscles asked a strange, and concering question.

"Hey Skye? I have a question for you.."

"Huh? What is it Meowscles?" Skye responded

"You know...do you think that...this whole Brutus thing could be related to...Shadow?" Meowscles said, appearing a bit scared and worried

"Wait...you really think it could? Actually...that...that could make sense. I guess we'll have to wait to see when we head their ourselves." Skye said, a little sad, and worried at the thought of that.

"Lets just hope otherwise until then, alright? If that is the case, we'll figure out something to do. He can defend himself, and pretty well at that, so I am sure that Shadow hasn't killed him, or at least harmed him too badly. Just...try not to get too worried Meowscles, alright?" Skye added on, trying to comfort Meowscles a little, without being too unrealistic.

"I won't. See you tomorrow for the mission, Skye." Meowscles said, still sounding a bit worried, heading to his room to, well, probably work out or something.

"See you then, Meowscles." Skye said, heading inside of her room afterwards.

-------Later, at night, in Skye's room---------

Skye was lying down in bed, with Ollie next to her, no longer as a hat on her head, well, for now at least.

"Ollie..." Ollie said worried.

Skye was somehow able to understand her best friend. "I know, I'm worried too, but we don't really know anything right now. We'll just have to see tomorrow, and besides, if we get into too much trouble, or anything, as Midas said, a team will come with a Choppa to help us escape, alright?"

"Ollie!" Ollie said

"Alright good, lets sleep now."

And with that, Skye and Ollie went to sleep for the night.

--------------------------------------------------------------

And thats the end of this part! Sorry that it probably wasn't the best, to be honest. I tried my best with it, but I don't think that I did very well to be honest. Well, either way, I hope you enjoyed it, or at least got some enjoyment out of it. Also, I may decide to make some parts outside of the story, and just little out of story/random things or even updates like this. One thing I should clarify, though, is that the base Maya and Peely were sent to was not the Grotto, but a different Shadow base. After their mission, which was mostly considered an attack, Brutus was sent there to help out, except it was over by the time he got there, however, he found the security footage, saved it, then took it to The Grotto. After that. He met with the Chaos Agent, and you should know the rest. I may want to correct or adjust a few things as this may be unclear, or may have been implied/seem as if it is The Grotto. Oh yeah, and I also hope that you had a great Christmas, and new year, or that something good happened at least! I'm pretty sure for you guys, or at least, most of you guys, you had some sort of either winter break, or at least a sort of break for the holidays, and I personally hope that you were able to enjoy the time off or do something fun at least. As always, I really do appreciate you reading this, I really do mean it, and have a good rest of your day.
