MC solo, the warehouse
~~ — — — — — — — — — — ~~
'I know I should just bring Mia and Letty here in the Hauler…but I want to clean it up a bit first…lessen the blow of everything a bit. Honestly how they aren't mad at me after they've lost their homes because of me…I don't understand.' Thoughts run through my mind as Supra makes a pitiful sound at having to drive on the rough road.
"Sorry girl, we'll try and fix the road at some point if we're going to be here for a long time…" I apologize to Supra and she shifts herself into neutral and revs up her engine, and puts herself back into gear.
Just as I pull up to the large steel doors of the warehouse a countdown pop-up blares red in the center of my vision.
[Sign-in for rewards expires in O0:00:58 Seconds Remaining, Sign-in for next Sign-In Reward.]
"Wow…it's that time again already." I mutter in surprise.
[Sign-in, Yes/No]
Mentally selecting yes, [Sign-in complete; dispensing reward: 10x doses of perfected Mirakuru serum, this perfected serum doesn't cause psychosis and carries no risk of death to whoever it is injected into; serum gives the following, enhanced strength, superhuman durability, accelerated healing, longevity, enhanced sense, peak human speed and agility, being that this Mirakuru is the perfected version you will not suffer disadvantages from your enhanced physiology because the strength/speed and senses will be an on demand thing, your body will still act like it has a normal level of strength until you need more or you're emotionally charged. (Note: Mirakuru in any form lowers fertility it is still completely possible to conceive children though.)]
"No fucking way!" I shout as my heart hammers in my chest, 'Mirakuru…this is perfect I'll be able to outlast the girls…' I do a little cheer in my seat and remove one vial of Mirakuru from my inventory, my eyes passing over the carrying case of my drones.
What appears in my hand is a high tech looking injection gun with an extended fluid reservoir, a pistol grip and a little digital screen on it that reads one dose.
"Fuck it." I grunt as I press the injector to my bicep and pull the trigger, it feels like any other shot at first and then it's like a fire an inferno spreads throughout my body.
A blissful blackness takes me moments later, an annoying panicked honking wakes me up sometime later and I feel…the same, while also feeling a hundred times better than I ever have.
I can see a bumblebee flying around the Supra and track it's wings flapping, "Okay that's fucking trippy…but it seems to go by concentration if I'm not concentrating on it, my enhanced sense don't really show themselves." I murmur softly, as Supra revs her engine in concern for me.
"I'm okay girl, thanks for worrying about now let's go and do as much cleaning up as we can." I say to Supra and gently stroke her gear shifter and she practically purrs like a cat.
I can't help but laugh at that adorable reaction, as I get out of Supra's cabin, walk over to the small person sized door, open it and head inside.
Walking over to the large steel doors sliding the bolts back unlocking the massive hunks of metal I swing them open just barely missing Supra's front fender.
Locking the doors in the open position, I wave for Supra to follow me inside, there's a decent layer of dust over everything with one track through it that leads to different areas of the warehouse.
Probably from whoever maintains the place for Tej or Tej himself.
Going through out the warehouse I store away old half rotten wooden and metal crates, old office furniture and miscellaneous stuff the building is in remarkable shape.
Pulling out my Night-Night gun as I go shooting and storing away any and all rats, snakes and birds that have made this place home over the years, getting into every nook and cranny I humanly can and dispatching my drones in hunt/kill/retrieve missions storing away the kills they bring back to me.
By the time I'm finished I'm covered in a layer of thick itch dust, but a smile is on my face because this is actually pretty fun.
'I wonder how the girls would feel about using this place for a sort of combat training, urban insertions and stuff while also serving as our home…I can see Letty getting into it, Mia definitely needs practice with guns.' I think as I find the hookups needed for the Hauler's clean and dirty water and electricity since the solar panels won't do much good parked inside this warehouse.
"Alright better get back to the girls, and should get us some burners even though cellphones aren't all that big right now." I hum as I walk over to Supra who backs away from me when I go to open her door.
"Hey what are you doing?" I shout at Supra more out of surprise than anything and she honks at me and backs up some more.
"Supre you're being a naughty girl, I don't want to have to threaten you with bargain brand oil again." I say to her in disappointment while crossing my arms over my chest.
Surpa makes a desperate, devastated sounding honk of offense and turns so that the driver's side mirror is pointed at me so I can get a good look at myself covered in cobwebs, thick sticky dust, and dirt.
"Ahh, okay I'm sorry for threatening you, with bargain brand oil I'll go wash off what I can…you'll just have to deal with me being damp on the way home." I say to her and Supra makes a sound of relief.
Heading both into the back of the warehouse and to a second floor I enter the large shower, something that you would find in a high school locker room and turn on the water to a nice middle ground between hot and cold.
Thick dark cloudy water flows into the drainage system, 'Yikes…I'll have to do something nice for Supra as an apology…it's weird at first I was gonna terminate her but her cat/dog like antics really grew on me and even the girls adore her. I-it's still hard to believe how cool they are about everything that goes on around me.' I think as I turn off the water and head back to Supra a soggy mess.
"Better?" I ask the car with an attitude and the way she dips her front end feels like a shrug to me but she doesn't drive away from me when I attempt to open her door, so I consider that a win.

Passing by a Pizzeria smelling food so delicious that I pull a U-turn/drift slide into a parking spot, out front of the place.
Heading inside I get some strange looks but the pretty cashier bats her eyes at me and takes my order, knowing that both Letty and Mia can eat I get two large pizzas one plane cheese the other meat lovers, and a 100 wings split up three ways between medium, Garlic Parm and extra hot and spicy for my spicy Latina.
It's about a forty minute wait where at least a dozen pretty but mostly uninteresting girls try to flirt with me, and it's a relief to finally leave with my order.
Then I stop at a large pharmacy/mini Mart and pick up everything that the girls requested, getting more strange looks especially from the guys…most of them jealous as a lot of the women were swooning over a guy who has no problem buying tampons and pads.
Grabbing some extra cleaning supplies as well all together not everything can fit inside Supra hell most of her free room is taken up by pizza and wings.
'Probably should have put the pizza and wings in the inventory because of that stasis thing.' I think but shrug it off as I cash out and wheel the carts carrying my purchases towards Supra.
I make like I'm putting my purchases away inside of her, but am actually putting them into the inventory, done with all that I put the carts in the outside collector and drive home to my girls.

Thanks for the input guys I did end up going with something else this time though which you all can see, let's not forget with Mechanical Mastery he could pretty much build Arc Reactors and Iron-Man Armored as it stands now, he'd just need the resources.
