"Hey. I'm here to see Fields..." - Said Lucas.
"Oh, you're the angel girl she was talking about." - Said a faerie who, oddly, worked in the security detail - "Here's the deal, she had to leave to New York all of a sudden, but she'll be talking to you by phone on speaker in her office. third floor, the big room once you leave the elevator..."
"Right. Say, I hope I do not offend..." - Said Cass, gently.
"I'm hard as hell to hit and I can actually use faerie telekinesis with the same range and force my arms and legs had before." - Said the faerie, smirking - "Next question."
"Point taken. So, can we go in?" - Said Lucas, smirking.
"I'll message her, then she'll call her own office. Just press the speaker phone button and you two will be able to talk to her."
Lucas and Cass nodded and went in.
"Hello. Er, Director Fields?" - Said Lucas, rather formally for her.
"Lucas, I presume. It is good to finally be able to talk to you, if on the phone like this. I apologize."
"It's Lucas, yes, and it's fine. Cass is with me, yes. Uhm, not to put too fine a point on it, but is this line safe?"
"Cecilia herself saw to it. After Hawkins told me of your first contact with him, I believed you might have some... potential." - Said Fields - "I must say I was correct..."
"So, Hawkins mentioned us to you before?" - Said Cass.
"Well, you must admit that two people trying to change international politics like you did would be something he'd have to report about, no?" - Said Fields.
"Well, point, and he does trust you." - Said Lucas - "So, er, how may I help you?"
"You alerted two agents of mine about an enormous threat and, together, you three saved the world" - Said Fields - "I called you here to thank you, and to offer you a reasonable reward."
"Uhm, I'm not about to say 'Doing good is its own reward', but the fact is I have or can create the vast majority of the stuff I want, money included. And so can Cass. Moon thing, y'know." - Said Lucas - "Plus, well, I got lots of neat stuff. The Youtube thing Cecilia helped with, for instance. I guess you could owe me a favor or something?"
"Fair enough..." - Fields chuckled - "On another matter, I believe I have a proposition for you. Would you be willing to help us in other fights you agree with? And, well, even other things?"
"Uhm, fights I agree with, sure. But, er, what kind of other things are you talking about? I mean, I'm no good at undercover stuff, and I still have a family, so I don't want any terrorists to..."
"Lucas! LUCAS!" - Said a laughing Director Fields - "Hawkins told me you were a translator, right? English-Portuguese, correct?"
Cass sweatdropped.
"Oh! That!" - Said Lucas - "How's twenty-five cents a word sound?"
