SWNOVELXO Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Make Over
"It has been three months since Tony Stark was kidnapped. The military continues on with their search and is yet to give up on his eventual return. Stark Industries' stock is showing signs of fluctuations as Tony Stark continues to remain miss... " Ajentt thought for a moment and asked, "How long was Stark kept imprisoned in the movie?"
"After he was rescued, he said that he was locked up for three months." Cortana answered according to the information sorted from his old world.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Let's wait till he returns, the stock price of Stark Industries should fall by then." Ajentt giggled at the thought of owning a share of Stark Industries at a very low price as he stares at the data of Stark Industries stock market.
If things go as they did in the movie, then his return should be soon, possibly just in time before he finishes his work and all his money disappears.
"I guess it's time to go shopping, I can't be the same as I was yesterday when confronting the Fraternity, I should show them my change and resolve by changing how I look." I logged off the computer and left, calling for a taxi. He headed towards a mall known for its luxury stores for some shopping spree.
Wearing a cheap suit and no tie that he uses when going to work, he made his way into the mall in search of stores for his makeover.
Walking along the lobby, he notices a high end barber shop, reaching into his hair, he feels them long and unkept, his facial hair grown and in a mess too. He proceeds towards the barber shop since facial appearance comes first when people look at him.
"Welcome sir, how may I be of service?" As soon as he entered, he was greeted by a staff member. Looking at her, he smiled, took a $1000 bill and handed it to her. With the prices that he saw in front of the store, the extra tip should also get them to provide the best services. "This is my payment, bring me your best barber and the rest is your tip."
"Thank you sir, right this way." The lady brought him to a chair as he called for his barber.
A barber came walking by with a smile as Ajentt gets himself comfortable on the chair. "How would you like me to cut your hair sir patreon? I could give you any style you want, I will make sure you look dashing like a million dollars."
"As you can see, I look like a mess, I need to look confident and have killer looks, one that will intimidate and show that I mean business and professionalism." Ajentt just comments on what he needs to the barber.
"As you wish, I'll turn you into someone that everyone would take seriously." The barber comments as he begins his work.
Nearly an hour later, Ajentt could be seen with shaved facial hair, and a crew cut look, the same hairstyle people see when watching movies of lawyers, spies, or con artists alike. With hair products that make his hair shine and beautiful. "Dashing, thanks for the cut, I'll be on my way then."
"Your welcome, come back anytime sir, I will always be available when you need me." The barber simply says as he bids him goodbye.
Walking out the barbershop with his new look, it was time for a change of clothes. Walking around the mall, he saw a store called Kingsman Collection. "There is just no way, no way they are real too"
He took a step forward towards the store, 'Well if I'm going to be an assassin, might as well look like an agent, both are nearly the same anyway, and the kingsman are pretty dashing and their suits should be able to take on high combat situations.'
Entering the store, he was greeted by a gentleman in suit, "Welcome sir, How may I help you this fine Evening?"
"I would like a full suit, that is resistant to wear and tear, a black one would be nice as it would allow me to blend in and unnoticeable while still looking good and professional."
"You have quite a… fine taste sir, what would be your budget for your suit sir."
'Even though I changed my look, I am still wearing cheap clothes, so I guess it's not out of the ordinary for him to ask me for my price.'
"Whatever price is necessary for my requirement, and I need it today, for I have an appointment I need to get to."
"Very well sir, I have a few sets of clothes that suit your needs, though it might need a few adjustments. Please step this way so I could measure you for the necessary adjustments." I complied with him and made my way to get measured, from my shoulders to my foot, as I also needed formal shoes that would go with my suit.
I was told to come back as I told him how many suits I would need and to pay for said suits and shoes before leaving while he proceeds with my order. It Cost me a pretty penny of several thousands for the suits. It is pretty expensive to look good, especially when you're soon to be a top notch assassin in the future, maybe like Agent 47 from Hitman.
While walking around the mall waiting for my suit, I remember the training I would go through, and being on a suit, no matter how high performance it would be won't be a good idea, so I made my way towards a department store and grab myself a track suit and jogging pants for ease of mobility and no problems of getting down and dirty as well as running shoes.
Walking further, I come across a Luxury Watch shop. I came in and asked for a watch I could use for adventuring, scratch resistant and impact resistant, water resistant and possibly I could see at night.
The service attendant showed me a variety of watches, but I went with a TAG HEUER AQUARACER that is known for its scratch resistance and able to submerge underwater. What's cooler is that I could see it in the dark with its light function when needed. The watch cost me about $4000+.
As the suit should not be ready yet, I went for a simple High calorie meal in some restaurant, till it's time.
With the suits in hand, and ready to meet with the Fraternity, I went on my way outside the mall.
Suddenly stopping in realization, 'I don't have a car to get there.'
Knowing the current problem I have, I began making my way to a car dealership. Going inside, the dealer showed me several sets of cars they have. I asked about high performance cars, possibly an American muscle. I continued to browse till I came across a very special car that reminded me of something.
"I would like to buy this in all black." pointing with my finger, I showed the dealer of a Chevrolet Camaro SS, in yellow with two black stripes in the middle, though I would like to have this color scheme, I am soon to be an assassin after all, gotta be stealth.
The dealer was a little skeptical if I could even afford the car, but I said I would pay in full, even when he showed me the price of it being $26000. The dealer was happy to have closed the deal and immediately went and grabbed the keys for me to drive it out and take it away.
Ajentt had a driver's license. An American driver's license was used as an ID, so basically everyone had one.
I asked Cortana about the possibility that this was a transformer. "Cortana, is it possible that there are transformers in this world?"
"Sorry master but I have no such information, you have only connected me for a short time on the internet, and I have not seen any news of them existing." Ajentt, though about what she said and it would be best not to know, the less he knows, the less problems he will have.
Making his way inside, he placed all his grocery shoppings at the back, hopped in and drove away.
