"You didn't invite me." Nikki pointed out irritably. And yes, she had gotten that email by some fluke. It happened to be her day off, and so she decided to come down. She was dressed in casual attire as well.
"Only if I get to ride shotgun."
And with that, the blonde agent parked herself in the front passenger's seat.

Jen breathed a sigh of relief when Nikki ignored her; how and who had sent her that email was to be pondered later. For now, she best claim an open spot before everyone else piled inside.
Re-calling Yamir, the Grunt jumped in and slid into the seat next to Nyx; already it was hot and stuffy in the van with only a few of them...
She couldnt wait to see how bad it would be with everyone...
With an eyeroll, Jen cast a glance at Nyx. "We should be there soon. Hopefully. I heard it wasnt a very long ride."

"That won't be necessary," a female voice rebounded off the concrete pillars in response to the suggestion of a second van.
A fiery-haired woman strode into the garage, sandals clicking against the hard floor. Unlike the grunts, she looked fully prepared for a day at the beach, or lounging by the pool - the neckline of a sleek black swimsuit could be glimpsed under a light cover-up tied at the waist. A broad-brimmed hat peeked out of a tote slung over her shoulder, and she dangled a pair of keys from her fingers.
Nadja glanced at her companion and curved her lips in a witting smile. "Care to drive?"

"I'll need the keys." Nadja's companion said in a flat tone.
A tall brunette with blue eyes that glared at a passing grunt, stood next to the red haired lady. His hand reaching out for the keys that dangled from her fingers.
He wore a dark blue, short sleeved button up shirt and a pair of black swimming trunks.

Turning at the new voice in the room, Faleen's lips parted slightly, The women, she had never seen before... but she gave off this air that was unmistakable, let alone the style she was dressed.
Seth was standing with her, both looking like they were going to the beach.
She must be an Elite... would be Faleen's guess.
On a brighter note, a second van. meaning no one would have to squeeze in. that was good.
Standing up straighter at there presence, looking to the women with polite curiosity, careful not to make it to obvious.

Emilie looked back and forth at the two sets of agents, trying to decide which car was "safest". Picking up Leo, she made her way to the first, where the woman with the drifloon and the event's initiator were seated. From the little gossip she'd collected about the temperaments of the high ranking rockets, she decided she could put off being stuck in a small moving box with Seth for a little longer, no matter how casual he currently appeared.
"Mind if I join you guys?"
Leo squirmed in her grip; she hoped he would behave until they got to the beach.

Nyx grinned. "No problem here. Still some free seats." She hadn't buckled her seat-belt up, and there was something interesting outside the car now, so she grabbed on to the back of the front seat and lifted herself up to see.
Some red head and guy, both of them not wearing uniforms. What did some people think incognito meant?!

He looked up at the new arrivals, and spotted Seth in casual cloths. For a moment, he thought they were going to get shut down and all sent up to clean the bathrooms or something, until an extra set of keys were pulled out. On the good side, they were still going. On the bad... well at least Seth was driving.
Picking up his charmander, he realized the first van was already full. Deciding it was safest to be in the back, he went to the second van and climbed to the farthest possible seat from the driver's seat. Riding in the same car he could survive, as long as he keep his head low for now. He settled with the charmander in his lap and his backpack shoved under his seat.

"I didn't invite anyone," Hayes grinned somewhat sheepishly as he slid into the driver's seat, dislodging Switch in the process. "Someone asked if they could come, bring a few friends, and.. uh, well."
"Pi." The Pikachu flicked an ear at him and promptly took over his lap, paws resting lightly on the steering wheel.
"All yours." The agent gestured at the seat with a grin as Nikki planted herself there and glanced in the side mirror at the sound of an authoritative voice. "Oh geez." It was half-laughed, maybe at the sight of his immediate supervisor in swim trunks.
The keys slipped off Nadja's fingertips with a light jingle. The elite curled her fingers back into her palm and let her arm drop to her side.
"Plenty of room," she smiled at Faleen - a professional smile, polite and cordial - and strode toward the second van.

At the sight of the first Elite, Liam ducked into the already over-filled trunk of the first van and pulled Artie in after him.
He was breaking a rule. BREAKING A RULE. If either of these two saw him he would be demoted... which was impossible, for all he knew. No, it was the brig for him if he was found out...
Of course, he completely ignored the fact that the Elites seemed prepared for a day at the beach too; he just knew he had to get away from them and their wrath.

Jen poked Nyx in the side.
"Look, no doubt whoever did a base-wide forwarding of the email I sent you earlier clearly sent it to one too many addresses. So I guess incognito is out of the question."
Pulling off her hair to reveal a pair of large sunglasses hidden underneath, the Grunt grinned at her friend and the one who had joined them. They looked like an expensive brand but the lack of guady decoratings marked them as a dime store buy.
However, as she started taking off her top to reveal the top half of a blue two-piece, Jen stopped to ponder and shrugged. "But, I think this means we can finally ditch our uniforms." She smiled. "And to answer your earlier question, yes. We have plenty of stuff packed as far as food. Someone even brought a portable grill."

"Hey, Hayes, Who are they?" Nyx was still propped with the front seats and gestured at Seth and Nadja. "Why aren't they incognito? Did you see the guy in the green speedo earlier?!"
Nyx was excited. She'd been cooped up in the labs for a good long time.

Leo had been still for some time. Emilie probably should have realized something was up, but instead the pikachu took advantage of her momentarily relaxed grip and jumped to the floor. Another hop, the sound of claws scrambling for a hold, and then he was on the headrest of Hayes' seat. Emilie froze in horror as the pikachu put a paw on the agent's shoulder in an attempt to get a better look at his fellow pikachu. She didn't have the time to pull Leo back as the other trainee in the group suddenly flew through the door, pokemon in tow.
"What's the hurry?" she asked him.

Sealing her lips closed again, the corners softening in response to the professional smile the women gave her.
Responding with a gentle bow of her head,
looking back up to see the women heading over to the van once Seth took the keys. She tilted her head; glancing over at the commanded… she had never seen him out of his uniform before.
“Sir”bowing her head to him as well before striding briskly to the van as well, not wanting to be the one that held anyone up.
As she opened the door and got in herself, she noticed that there was someone already in the very back seat.
Recognizing Panther
“Panther” she greeted quietly, though took her seat toward the front, behind passenger so she could sit by the window.
One glance at the other van caused her to smile in amusement, seeing how full it was in comparison to this one.

As Zach walked in, he noticed a few faces that he knew, from the e-mail he got there were a few he certainly wasn't expecting. Namely Seth. Oh well, it looked like he was driving so it must not be a problem. He went up to the vehicles, saw Hayes, and said "Hey, Hayes! This is quite the crowd here. I guess I'm not the only one who got that e-mail then?"
