Vegetable stretched as he stood up, sighing in boredom as he started to step out into the hallway. As Okra prepared to go to his dorm room, somebody tapped him on the shoulder.
"Vegetable Guru, is it?" whoever it was, was obviously stifling a snicker as he said that.
Okra resisted the urge to hit whoever was behind him, "Yea, but call me Okra," Vegetable turned around.
Okra raised an eyebrow at the person who was behind him. The man was at least a good few inches taller and a good ten to twenty years older. He was wearing a dark blue cloak, a black vest with long sleeves, grey pants, and dark grey gloves. It was obvious the man was wearing some kind of armour underneath, and he also had a sword sheathed on one side
"Here's the key to the janitor's closet. It's just down the hall over there. You're to clean the bathrooms today," the man stated.
"Who're you?" Okra took the key.
"Sergeant Stulfut, YUME security," the man said, giving a small mock salute, "Anyway, I have to be going now. Lots of work to do."
The sergeant suddenly disappeared. It wasn't like Vegetable's speedy exit, as there were no wind signalling such an action. It was more like him suddenly fading into the shadows. Except there were no shadows.
"..." Vegetable sighed again as he headed toward the janitor closet. |
