Author's note: This is actually based off of an RP I did with a friend. However, I decided to make it into a Flaky/Flippy story because I feel there not enough HTF fics on Fanfiction, so I wanted to contribute.
A tall handsome man with green hair walked through the dark streets of the night in his army attire.
"Well, hello soldier!" Said a stripper with pink hair and a ribbon in her hair, standing outside of the strip club: Pudding 'n' Pie. "Want us to serve you like you serve our country?!" She winks. "Army discount."
Flippy couldn't help but smile and blush, pulling down his hat to cover his blush. "Thanks ma'am but I came here for a business meeting with your boss."
She pouts, she knew what kind of guy blushes the way he blushes: A virgin. "Poor thing, all this time fighting for our country, you never had women thrown themselves at you?" She touches his chest.
He immediately walks back, laughing nervously. "No ma'am. I fought for freedom, not for the spoils." He smiles.
"Good, honest, humble, and HOT. Guys likes you are the type girls love to bring home their daddy and he wouldn't mind you fucking her." She smirks, especially when the blush on his face became redder. "Well, Mr. Beelz, come right this way." She walks past the guards and to the strip club. Flippy hesitated but he followed as well.
Flippy tried to pull himself together. He was on a job and he couldn't let images of female lady parts cloud his thoughts, especially since he's in a place literally filled with tits and ass. He couldn't understand how people could work like this, how his mother once worked like this! It was kind of dark and the place smell like old men and semen. "Shifty better be close." He mumbles to himself, pulling down his hat to blocking his view of the girls.
Shifty was just slouching on the couch, watching his new employee, Petunia, dance in his back room."Come on, you twat! You think that's sexy!?" Shifty screams at Petunia. "No one's going to give you any money!" He throws pennies at the girl, making her writhe in pain.
"Leave her alone, Asshole." Flippy said coming in, smiling at Petunia who smiled back.
"FLIPPY!" Shifty laughs, hugging him. "How's dad's favorite bastard?!" He then glares at Petunia and throws more pennies. "GET YOUR SORRY ASS OUT OF HERE! THAT'S YOUR PAY FOR THE DAY!"
He threw a penny at her eye. She cries, falling to her knees, collecting as many pennies as possible.
Flippy glares at Shifty, Shifty rolls his eyes, "Oh, is someone going to throw a bitch fit? Don't tell me you haven't smacked a few whores around in the war?"
"Fuck you Shifty."
"Fuck you Shifty." Shifty mocks Flippy. "You're so corny, I love it. "
Flippy stares at the poor girl as she limps away the room, then back at Shifty. "You know I didn't come here for a family reunion." Flippy was not in the mood to stay here any longer, watching his half brother being a complete prick.
Sighing sadly, the petite girl fixed her long red hair into pigtails, staring wistfully at herself in the mirror. She hadn't wanted this life, and if anybody ever found out about her second 'job', she would lose everything.
"Hey Princess, hurry up, your on next!" one of her fellow strippers, Giggles, yelled from across the room. Giving one last sigh, Flaky stood up from her makeup stool, walking over to wardrobe. Grabbing her outfit for the night she wrinkled her nose, it wasn't as bad as some of the things she'd been forced to wear, but it was just too disgusting for the ruby eyed girl's taste. In front of her was a skimpy bunny suit. A small leotard that covered between her breast and her bottom, knee high white socks, six inch heels, a bow for her neck, and, of course, bunny ears.
"Princess! Get over here, you're on!" one of the managers, Lifty, yelled from the curtains. Nervously she approached him, carefully going out onto the main stage as the lights dimmed.
Shuddering slightly she tried not to think about the expressions the men she was 'entertaining' had. Blocking out the hooting and hollering men Flaky went to the pole and began to dance, just wanting to get it over with.
Once she was finally done she noticed Giggles calling her over.
"Yes Giggles? What is it?" she asked, curious as she reached the older girl. "Hurry up please, I really want to go home," she sighed, rubbing her temples.
"Sorry sweetie, boss man wants you in his office, he says it's real important," Giggles giggled, knowing this was not what Flaky had wanted to hear.
"Dammit," the redhead groaned, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Fine, thanks, I'm going," she grumbled, marching to the bosses office, wanting to simply get the meeting over with and head home.
Flaky was halfway to Shifty's office when she ran into the new trainee, Petunia. Any and all of the girl's could tell that she was doing bad in her… 'training' due to the money she was carrying. Every girl had to train with Shifty personally until he deemed her ready for the poles or the floor.
Shifty was an ass, a major ass. None of the girls wanted to work under him, he treated them all like shit, and if they did anything wrong either he or his twin Lifty would get physical with them. Sighing once again as she watched the crying girl run by, Flaky approached the door of her bosses office.
Knocking on the door she waited to hear Shifty's reply, knowing not to bother him if he was busy. Once she heard him say to speak she sighed in relief, maybe this would be done sooner than she thought.
"Boss, it's Princess, Giggles said you wished to speak to me," she said, beginning to wonder just why she was being called down.
"Come in!" she heard her bosses greasy voice practically purr from the other side of the door. Shivering in disgust for the second time that night, she pushed the door open and slowly stepped in. Upon entering she saw that Georgie had a guest, though she couldn't tell who it was since they had their back to her. 'Let's just get this over with,' she thought.
"Princess, I'd like you to meet my half-brother, Flippy."
This was worse than anything she could imagine. She hadn't wanted anyone else finding out about this because of her job, but him…. She didn't want Flippy to EVER find out about this, this tortuous 'job'. He was the one good thing tying her to her past, before everything went wrong.
Staring into her best friend's eyes, she saw him filling with emotions, getting ready to snap. Flinching when Flippy turned back to Shifty.
"What the fuck is this?!" Flippy yells at Shifty, stomping towards him.
"HOLD IT! HOLD IT! I've done nothing wrong! I just happened to inherit our old man's gold mine, and an old acquaintance came out begging for an easy well paid job. Didn't even know who she was until we found you some time ago." Shifty smirks. "Hey, I'm a nice guy. I COULD have ripped them off and paid them next to shit like other gentlemen's club do, but I give them a respectably high salary WEEKLY. Hell, I'm becoming like our old man now."
Flippy's punch flew Shifty into the wall, and then punched him in the stomach several times. Flippy grabs his brother and throws him into the glass table.
Shifty coughs up blood. "Jesus Christ, Flippy! It's been six bloody years! I need to time to remember what pisses ye off!"
"But you remember what you THINK you could use against me as leverage!" Flippy grabs Shifty by the neck. "That's what she is to you, right? Leverage!?" He tightens his grip. "You honestly think I'm DUMB ENOUGH to become your bitch?!" Flippy grabs a bottle and smashes it against Shifty's skull.
"F-Flippy!" Flaky squeaked in utter surprise. Whimpering nervously as her once sweet best friend began beating Shifty senseless. She ran up to him, wrapping her thin arms around Flippy's beefy bicep. "F-Flippy, please stop! H-he's not worth it!" she exclaimed.
Some how managing to pull her friend away from his brother, she held his cheeks in her hands, forcing him to look her in the eyes. "Flippy! You're not this type of guy! Please stop!" Flaky cried, desperately trying to calm the man down as tears began flooding her eyes. "P-please! I'm sorry! I'm sorry.." she sniffled, wrapping her petite arms around the much larger man in a hug.
Flippy's yellow eyes became green again. He starts breathing slowly as Flaky embraces him, trying her best to hold him back. "We'll talk later," He whispers.
Sighing in relief Flaky stiffened slightly when Flippy said they would talk, but at least that would be better than him beating her boss to death… Right? "Okay, we'll talk, I promise," she said, soothingly rubbing circles in his back.
"You don't know what the FUCK you're talking about, bitch." Shifty get up and spits out blood. "Flippy has always been this way since we met the fucker. You just never seen it before until now."
Flinching at Shifty sudden outburst looked everywhere except her boss' direction. Flaky didn't believe a word he said. Flippy had been the sweetest boy when they were growing up, this change was all because of that messed up boarding school and the war.
"She's quitting her job, right now." Said Flippy, coldly. "Come on, Flaky." Letting him end the hug, she felt his hand on her hip, trying to lead her out of the room.
"HEY! HEY! Where do you think you're going with my merchandise?!" Shifty yells at him.
"SHE. IS. NOT. YOUR. TOY!" Flippy eyes flashed yellow for a second.
"And what will she do for her brother on life support? My weekly checks are the only thing keeping him alive." Shifty hit a weak spot in Flippy's heart and he knew it.
"Any job she can get is better than selling her soul to the devil." Flippy glares at him. "If these girls truly knew how fucked up you really are, you'd out of business."
"YOU'RE one of us." Shifty reminded him. "How about we let the lady decide what she wants to do. So, Princess, you want to keep being my bitch or you want your brother to die?"
"Flaky, don't listen to him. Monsters like him will lie and manipulate you. He gives you nice things so you can let your guard down and take advantage of you." Flippy explains. "Trust me, whatever Shifty shows you on the surface, he's four times more disgusting deep down."
"Flippy… I don't know if I can quit. If I do, Cuddles won't get any medical care. I've already sold everything I could to help him, including the house," she whimpered, not looking her friend in the eye. "I-I don't have any money saved up, my old job can barely pay for my crappy apartment… B-but Shifty pays enough for food and Cuddle's care… I-I don't know what to do Flippy," she groaned in aggravation, hiding her face in her hands.
"I expect you here tommorow." Shifty says to Flaky. "Now, both of you get your sorry asses out of here." He coughs up blood again. "Fucking Flippy."
Flaky sighs, nodding at Shifty's order, knowing she couldn't argue with him. "Yes sir," she mumbled, grabbing Flippy's hand.
"Come on." Flippy says, gently pulling Flaky out the room. He nods at the strippers smiling at them. He knew they were staring at the blood on his fists.
Keeping silent, Flaky followed him out of the room, refusing to look at him or the other girls as they passed by. Making her way backstage real quick she changed into her regular skirt and top before returning to Flippy's side. Gripping his arm again she tried to hide a smile as all the girls began gossiping about Shifty's messed up face.
Walking out the door, she released a breath she hadn't known she was holding. She had been worried Shifty would send his men after Flippy.
