Chapter 65 - Lola (2/2)

”…”

Danny shrugged uncomfortable, bouncing off Luke's hand: ”Big guy, can you just not mention that?”

Hearing the conversation between the two, Matt sighed and then patted Danny shoulder as well: ”Danny, what happened today is my fault. I'll do my best to give you the money back!”

”Don't overexert yourself. His last name is Rand! Why would he even care about so little money?” Jessica stretched her waist and yawned, saying: ”What a day! It's finally over!”

”Wait, Jones! You have to be at court tomorrow still, and we have to prepare for the trial together!”

”Well… shit!”

...

Half an hour later, before Colleen's building, Phil Coulson was leaning against a red convertible. Looking at Saint's black hair and eyes, he was slightly surprised. All of a sudden, he started wondering if this was the actual disguise, and if what he had seen back in the alley was Saint's true face!

”Her name is Lola.” Coulson patted the car behind him, and then opened the door and said while getting to the driver seat: ”Trust me, Saint, 'she' will surprise you!”

”You also gave the car a woman's name…” Saint rolled his eyes, and walked to the other side to get in the car as he continued: ”Why am I not surprised at all?”

Coulson ignored him and turned the key to start Lola, confidently saying: ”Sit still, we are about to set off!”

Saint smirked: ”Sit Still? Are you afraid it would be so slow that I would want to jump off the seat?”

Coulson smirked as well, and did not answer with words. Instead, he slowly drove to a road with no people, holding the steering wheel in one hand, and then uncovered a switch on the dashboard, flicking it.

The next second, the rims of the four tires started emtting a light blue flame. As they slowly turned under the car, they became flame emitting rings that face the ground. Just like that, the antique car turned into something that belongs in the future!

”Lola” first floated in mid air, and then, as if flying a plane, Coulson pulled the steering wheel backwards, and ”she” rose up further, before taking off.

”Interesting…”

Instead of scaring Saint like Coulson expected, ”Lola the Flying Car” awakened the geek in him. After a brief silence, he said: ”Is this… the semi-finished concept car that Howard Stark put on display in the 1943 Stark Expo? It was on that day that he first met Captain America.”
