46 Conquered

That you will win the bet." Ally said as she shrugged her shoulders and stuck her tongue out to make a teasing expression.

For a second Austin had completely forgotten about the bet that he himself offered yesterday. But seeing Ally's confidence and her teasing expression he was pretty much speechless and expressionless.

But Austin was in no mood to say anything back so he just walk passed across Ally and went downstairs. As soon as he reached he took his car keys and stormed out of the base house.

Seeing this Mike & Sam were confused. Because Austin's face looked as if he is angry.

"What happened?" Mike asked as he saw Ally coming downstairs.

Just like Mike & Sam, Ally also didn't know why Austin stormed out.

***********************

As the days passed the individual training of the girls kept going on. For now, Austin only used that machine to make Ally prepared for the battle that she was about to fight. On some days Ally was quite fine but as the graphics reached at higher levels, Ally started to face difficulty. But somehow got over those difficulties as well. This all took 4 weeks.

"Hmm. I guess you are ready now." Austin said as Ally came out of that tube kinda thing.

"Ready for what?" Ally asked.

Austin was one of those people who liked to keep suspense. So, he did not tell Ally about what he thought she was ready for but only said one thing

"Tomorrow, there will be no training. But I will take you somewhere."

Goodwill Company

CEO'S Office.

"The whole building?" Leonard asked.

"Yes sir." Austin said.

"Well...ok then. For tomorrow, the whole building is yours." Leonard said.

The next day.

Ally had no idea where Austin might be thinking of taking her. But still she was waiting for him as he said that he will pick her up.

"Get in the car." Austin said.

After 15-20 mins of driving, Austin & Ally reached The Glass Palace. The Glass Palace was a tourism spot of Country I.The Glass Palace was constructed by a famous architect company which was in collaboration with the Goodwill Company but the designer who designed this company died before its construction. After that, the architect company closed down so now Goodwill Company owned this building. As the name goes the building was indeed made of glass and looked stunning.

"The glass palace...?" Ally was a little terrified.

Glass Palace was the exact place where she had gotten this fear of height and now Austin brought her here.

"Ok..no I am not going there..." Ally said as she sat back in the car.

"Ok. You can either choose to be afraid and live the life where every person who know this weak point of yours will use this against you or you can be free and give a slap on the face of this acrophobia. And do you know you actually got used to that Tube kinda thing faster than me?" Austin said.

Ally thought that Austin was assigned for this training by Mr. Harry and that's why he can't refuse but hearing what Austin said Ally couldn't stop herself but ask "You had.."

"Yeah. I had it. But Agency helped me." Austin said before Ally could complete her sentence.

After thinking for a while Ally got out of the car. Before entering the building she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

The building had 13 floors.

Step by step Austin & Ally reached at the highest floor. The scenery from there looked beautiful.

"Are you ok?" Austin asked.

"Yeah. I..am not feeling afraid to be honest." Ally said as she saw herself standing on the highest bulding.

As it was a glass building you could just feel as if you are in sky by standing at any floor. But yes, the feeling of standing at the highest floor was amazing and that too without any fear...the feeling and the comfort that Ally was having right now was incomparable to any joy that she might have had in her life.

"By the way, this building is usually crowded. Why not today?" Ally asked.

"I asked Leonard sir to ask the staff if they could keep this building close for today." Austin said.

Austin & Ally both admired the beauty of the city from the glass palace for a while. Even after walking on 12 floors of glass Ally was not used to walking on the glass...so when Austin said that they should be going now, in a little bit of over excitement of conquering her acrophobia Ally forgot to walk carefully and slipped

Seeing this Austin ran to Ally and asked "Are you ok?"

"I guess..." Ally said as she tried to get up but...

"AAAH!"

As Ally had got a sprain on her leg Austin picked her up and then went down.

****************************

"Where's your room?" Austin asked.

"I can go in my room." Ally said.

Austin definetely knew that Ally won't be able to take even one step...but as a revenge Austin literally threw Ally on her sofa.

"Go on." he said.

As soon as Ally kept her leg which was sprained on the floor her expressions changed...

"You could've simply told me where your room was in the first place." Austin said as he put Ally down on her bed.
