Ping!
The elevator slowly opened its doors to reveal yet another filthy corridor, with some more doors. The one on the left seemed to have a lot of people in it, from what Cal could hear. Walking briskly towards it, he could see; so this was the cafeteria the female slig had mentioned. As soon as he walked through the open doors, though, he could see a large crowd on the other side of the room. And in the middle, with a lot of guns being pointed at his head, was Ricky!
Cal wondered how the hell Ricky had gotten into such trouble; he was supposed to be tailing Cal secretly untill Cal found where Arnie was, so that they could talk about the... large amount of moolah he owed them. But from the looks of things, the plan wasn't going very well.
Deciding he'd better help the stupid fool out of the mess, he discreetly walked around the walls of the room to the disgruntled group.
'Hello my good gentlegluk, gentlesligs and... thing.' he spat, throwing a clearly distasteful look at the machine who was interrogating Ricky. 'I was just, err.. passing by when, uh, I noticed my friend here having a lot of guns pointed at his head. Now i'm not sure how things go around here, but I don't think that's a very polite way of greeting a newcomer.' he said, wearing a rather arrogant smirk on his face (well, as much as an Intern can smirk, anyway).
Ricky resisted the urge to groan. Cal obviously wasn't aware that he'd just fallen unexpectedly from the wall...
"Never here when I need you, yet always here when I don't." Ricky thought. 'Listen, Cal, I got this under control. Now please kindly leave and scan the place or somethin'.' Ricky hissed, trying to keep his voice low so the others wouldn't hear him.
'"Under conrol?"' Cal whispered back. 'Last time I checked, you had a group of people want'n to kill yo-'
'And you're just making it worse!'
'You should be @#$%ing thankful that I came to save your sorry ass!'
As they continued to bicker, their voices gradually got louder and louder untill-
'Don't you go cryin' to your Momma when you get kicked out of the job because you were too stupid to leave a situation alone!'
'At least my Momma don't eat her own Odd damn kids for breakfast!'
