Note:Alright, looks like I chose Peely and Maya reporting back! Hopefully this goes well! Anyways, onwards with the story!!

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

"Alright, you ready Peely?" Said Maya, looking towards Peely with her hand on the door knob.

"Ready as ever!" Peely said confidently with a smile on his face.

Maya then opened the door, greeted by the sight of Midas at his desk in his office, looking up from his computer and papers at the two.

Midas was the first to speak. "I see you are back from your mission. Give me your report, and were you able to successfully get the intel from Shadow?"

Maya quickly responded. "Yes! In fact, not only did we get the intel from Shadow, but Peely also finally did it!"

Midas looked at Maya with curiosity in his expression. "Did what exactly?"

Peely cut in before Maya could respond. "I finally was able to fight on my own! I helped defend Maya while she was using the little hard drive device thingy to get the intel from one of the computers at the Shadow base!"

Peely said with a proud look on his face.

Midas smiled a little. "Well, that is great, Agent Peely, I am glad that you were able to find a way to do so. Your missions may become more dangerous and risky over time, so it is best that you have learned this skill by now.

Now. May I have the hard drive, Maya?"

"Of course, boss!" Maya said, taking out the hard drive from her pocket and handing it over to Midas' golden hand.

"Thank you. You two are dismissed, you may rest, or do whatever you see fit for today."

"Alright, see ya boss!" Maya and Peely said, quickly exiting the room, and closing the door.

"I just still can't believe I did it, my first mission I was able to hold my own in!" Peely said to himself with excitement.

Maya looked around The Agency, and noticed that none of the other agents except Ghost Henchmen, and others who stay at the place, such as Tek, in The Agency.

"Speaking of, where are the other agents?" Maya asked Peely

"Probably out still on their missions they were assigned, may be taking longer to complete than ours." Peely answered

"True, I just hope they are okay." Maya said with a worried tone and expression in her voice.

"I'm not as worried about the others as I am Brutus. Brutus has been missing for a while now, actually, about a few days or a week so far. I don't know what may have happened to him..he just...disappeared one day after he went to The Grotto." Maya continued.

"He won't even contact us or anything, no matter how much he tried. I just hope that he wasn't...killed or anything.." Maya finished, worried.

"Well, although I am also pretty worried myself, I think he may still be alive. If he died, I would think that someone, whether an agent or just a citizen, would have probably found his body somewhere, besides, Brutus is pretty strong, especially with his minigun, it'd be preeettttyyy hard to kill him." Peely responded, in attempt to make Maya feel a bit better.

"You are right, Peely. Its just that...well...if he is still at The Grotto, I hope he is okay."

"I understand, Maya, I hope so too. But I bet he is...we just have to hope."

Maya and Peely heard three people walking to them in the hall they were in, and they both turned to them.

"Oh hey, speaking of the agents, besides Brutus it seems they came back now!" Said Peely with some cheer in his voice.

------------Meanwhile, in The Grotto----------

Brutus, as a part of Shadow, was talking to Chaos Agent, after looking through the security cameras, and the footage.

Chaos agent spoke to Brutus, being straightforward, too.

"We don't have time for small talk, what did you find, Brutus?"

"Straightforward, I like it. You see, Chaos agent, boss, after someone, 2 agents, invaded this place, and escaped, I decided to check the security cameras, to see what I could find." Brutus started.

"At some points, some cameras were destroyed, but from what I say, it seems our supposed "Agent" or Peely, was wearing an outfit for Ghost, and was helping out an Agent who helps work for Ghost, Maya, on some sort of mission. I couldn't exactly figure out what it was, BUT, what I could figure put was that Peely is a traitor." Brutus continued.

"Which explains why he didn't really seem to be helping, let alone keeping up with much of anything in Shadow. I bet that he doesn't even know I joined, stuipid banana. I don't even know what you or Midas see in that guy, anyways." Brutus finally finished.

"Hmm, well, I did find him joining a bit suspicious. He didn't really seem like the type of guy who would want to work for our cause. Well, I thank you for this information Brutus. I will soon upgrade the security here. We cannot afford to lose The Grotto, it is one of the most valuable Shadow bases we have so far. Make sure to train your henchmen a bit too." Chaos agent told Brutus.

"I will, boss. Thank you." Brutus said with a small bit of gratitude in his voice.

Chaos Agent then left to continue doing this own work. Work that Brutus didn't know about, but probably couldn't care too much for.

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

And thats the end of this part! Probably wasn't that good but ye! The next part **should** be back with Agent Peely and Maya again, and will also have a few other characters as well! Hopefully you liked this part, as always, feel free to give me feedback if you'd like, and have a great day guys! 💙
