What's their Deal
What's their Deal
Shego sat in her office, silently fuming over what she saw as the universes biggest joke. Not only did she arrive at a Convention Center over 80 miles away, her idiot Brother had somehow managed to become the single biggest Hero in the USA (Which was surely going to go to his head), but now Edna was demanding to see all the companies files on a "Miss Elizabeth Pena, her employer, and her tailor" while refusing to take no for an answer.Even if she wanted to share with Edna what they had on Doofenshmirtz mysterious secretary(?), the truth was there just wasn't anything worth keeping. The woman covered her tracks well, and even amongst the… odd menagerie of employees on the Mad Pharmacist payroll. Her spies never got to the Doctors Inner council, but her understanding was it wasn't likely to help much, the woman was just as much an enigma to her coworkers. All she did know was Miss Pena was once a member of the Kronos Corporation, she conducted her interview via cell phone, and she knew a far greater deal about espionage then most people would expect (This coming from Shego's own Testimonial).
The rest of DEI's important staff were even odder then this mystery woman. She could understand hiring a competitor's industrial espionage expert. She could not understand hiring a SFIT drop out whose biggest claim to fame was a series of annoying Edutainment videos on Buzztube. Or a teenager who spent more of her time pranking him then attending board meetings. Or that weird Toon who seemed to only care about finding an almost certainly dead star and making Sandwiches. A group of ninja's who, instead of hiding, lived in the main Lobby. And especially not 2 elementary schoolers who can only "work" for you during the summer.
The most irritating thing was, all these absurd hirelings and deals were working. The drop out just made the single biggest breakthrough in robotics history. The teen was regarded as a hero for her role in stopping last Christmas' Gargoyle attack. The Toon single handedly took down an entire resistance and invented an entire martial art. The elementary schoolers managed to do a massive, go green campaign that enabled them to fix their power issues without going to fusion. And the ninjas… well apparently Doof was very happy of their Arizona report and their leader would sometimes be heard shouting about how "The Power of Love" allowed him to "Make Ninja Magic Real" so they were probably competent enough.
Company Secretwise, many areas were off limits to even her most high ranking infiltrators. The place was loaded with traps, even in public, frequently traveled areas. Entire Labs, including L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N.S. old place (She shuddered at the thought of having an entire thinktank of Drakkens) were on a need to know basis. While she could get in some, such as their Dinosaur growth lab, many others she didn't even know what they could theoretically do since the Lunatic didn't label them beyond room number. Then there was the entire issue of Toffee. She didn't know what the Lizard did to this guy, but apparently after the Doctor rejected a deal you weren't even supposed to talk about him outside of special conference rooms and all information on him was handed to Doofenshmirtz himself. She was originally gonna assume it was another case of the Mad Pharmacist's incredible pettiness, not allowing a rival in the food industry to even be talked about; but then it was pointed out to her that Doof is never that quiet about his "Enemies". Something is amiss with the Doctor and Lizard…
The man was very much a person who should be taken as a complete joke, yet somehow, someway, was making national Headlines. One month he could be losing his city to super-powered cats, the next his hit musical manages to lead to True AI being created. His Inator's were similarly absurd; from making it rain meat to fundamentally altering probability for the entire solar system.
Shego was glad she, at the very least, didn't have to meet with Doofenshmirtz for the next couple months, or possibly ever again. During the last couple of check ins after he gave her brother to Olympia, Shego had been considering just ceasing all contact with the man. His eccentricies were seriously starting to grate on her, but Edna was right in one thing. DEI was hiding something, and she wanted to know what it was. Mode was going to get approval for this project, even if their reasonings for undertaking it were completely different.
So this is my first attempt at an Omake, or really creative writing in general, sorry if its bad. Also I really can't get Edna's voice down (Or Dialogue in general) right so I cut the final conversation
