Star Fox Kursed
I really do hope the first chapter went without a hitch. I did go back and read over it one last time. A few mistakes and grammar errors. Somethings I didn't like how it mentally sounded so I rewrote a couple of lines for Kursed. More characters are going to show up. After all, doesn't Fox meet Kursed on Kew anyway. (IMPORTANT) - Imagine Kew like MARS - That's what I'm going for here. Can't do that... THEN GO PLAY SOME DESTINY. Also, a major thing to note. Try to image the characters as real as possible, not in their video game style, a more natural appeal like the real world. Also, the flash backs are when Kursed first meets Ash. The Café blowing up is a later story. Kursed has known Ash for 4 years. No one reads theses Author notes anyway. It's really just a waste of my time and kilobytes. So, without further ado...
Chapter 2: Sage Eyes
Kew's spaceport was the only redeeming thing about the planet. Its streets had normal working citizens and gleaming glass paneled buildings. Lights were an array of color and life. A shimmering beacon in the middle of a baron wasteland. Trees and vegetation blossomed up in the city skyrises. Vines reaching to touch the ground. Small winged creatures gliding to one structure to the next. Kew's hospital was just as magnificent as the rest of the city. There, many things would wash up from the wasteland. Each telling a different story and adding to the pain and suffering. Those two things would follow a blue furred vixen no matter how far she runs...
Stirring in her sleep, her head leaning on her paw, Kursed opened her eyes. Awaking to the sight of rain plopping against the glass ceiling. Filling her lungs with air, she yawned. Glancing around the room. Nurses and Doctors coming in and out. Families sitting in lobby chairs and couches.
I hope that all the spirits heal him. I hope he isn't dead. Oh, please let him be okay. Ash my only friend. Thoughts of the nurses telling her he passed away in the night came to her mind. Using her mind to reach out she must know. Reading the minds of the doctors and nurses she found no hints of a death.
Getting up, she made her way to the front desk. Looking at a brown feline with curly hair. "Excuse me, I'm a friend of a young white furred male wolf. He's okay right?"
Without looking up she continued to type, "He's okay."
"Can I see him?"
"um... yes. You can, but the hospital as well as the police would like to know how he ended up like that. He is currently unresponsive, but I'm sure you wouldn't mind telling us the details yourself." Kursed felt like punching her in the face then ripping her throat open. Her last comment sounded like a threat.
"yeah yeah sure. But can I see him first." Kursed knowing full well this isn't going to end well for her, or Ash.
"of course, boyfriends come first. Go on ahead. His room number is 576. Fifth floor." she said while reading her computer. Rolling her eyes to the 'boyfriend' comment. Turning toward the elevator, she started her ascend. Looking in the window, her reflection took focus. Seeing tear marks running down her cheeks. Rubbing her face to wipe them away. Her reflection showing her anger starting to boil. Pacing back and forth along the LED lit floor panel. Gritting her teeth and cursing under her breath. Her emotions going out of control. Being in this stupid hospital. Citizens and creeps alike always staring at her. Feeling responsible for Ash's condition. Which it totally was. Her thoughts acting against her.
Why the hell was I crying last night?
You better not be going soft over some little waiter like Ash.
Oh, shut the fuck up. I'm not getting soft. It's just that he doesn't deserve this bullshit.
Well tuff luck, little fur ball was going to get hurt.
I caused it.
So, what? You gun slobs down without second thought. Like you really feel sympathy for him?
Yes
Fuck you
"No Fuck YOU!" she screamed at her reflection. Looking like a complete idiot. Several Kewians stared at her as the elevator had stopped.
"Mommy, is that lady okay?" A little fat chubby panda said to his mother.
Dragging him away, Kursed heard her whisper in his ear," no, that lady is crazy. We don't go around those types. Right?"
Gathering herself together she passed all the wiry eyed lookers. Heading down a hallway lite by sunshine beaming I, painting the white wall a mural of orange and gold. Scanning for the number 576. Telepathically reaching out to each room. Finding Ash just I bit down the hall. The tapping of her boots echoed in the hallways. It was dreamily lit by daylight at one end of the hall. Very quiet and soothing. Upon reaching room 576 the door was lightly opened. Pushing through, the sight of a bed in the corner came into view. Ash lay silently on it. To her relief, Ash seemed to be in one piece. Coming to his side she felt the overall joy that he was okay. To her, he was the only friend she had in the world. The only one who truly got to be in her personal sphere without being skewed into a red mess. The sunshine filled the room. His fur was cleaner than usual. Appearing more snow white than the walls of the room.
There were no machines wired to him. Kursed felt out of place in the room. A dark, purplish, dirty, fox in a room of so much innocents and pureness. Bringing her paw up to his bed side, she felt almost afraid to touch the him. But she couldn't help but start rubbing his left paw. She looked him over. His fur still as bright and vibrant white as ever before. The wound that he had gotten, she needed to see it. She moved her paw down to the blanket's edge. Pulling the covers back and flipping them over. He had a black t-shirt on, no underwear though. Trying to avoid being a pervert she rolled his shirt up to his chest. His exposed torso didn't look bad. The stitched wound looked great compared to what had been gushing out yesterday. The moment got awkward when she caught herself staring at his abs indentations through his fur.
What am I doing? This feels wrong, but right. It's not like I haven't touched him before. There isn't a place on his body that I don't know about come to think about it. But still He is very... attractive.
A memory of him and her came flooding back into her mind again. Three years ago, after that little shoot out at the dinner...
Flashback
Bodies. Bodies everywhere. All sorts of species littering the grounds around the café. Kuresd mercilessly gunning down everyone in sight. Her blaster raised and poised to bring a rain of plasma on any whom who would challenge her. She tore off the merchant robes. Reveling tight black shorts with a whit tank top tucked in. A belt field with various pouches, and one deadly holstered blaster on her thigh.
The dinner littered with burn marks and singed holes. Glass melting because of small fires erupting about the room. Her eyes glaring at the beauty of her art mark. She walked with such grace, an evil smirk across her muzzle. Stepping on lifeless mercenaries as she went. Outside she sensed a couple were still alive. Making her way to the door, she glanced at the dead. A few still breathing. She noticed something. A big, fat, and ugly toad lay on the ground. Smiling to herself she locked eyes on to his. Lightly skipping her way to him, twirling and harshly coming down and slicing open one of his lizard goons. Giggling with such hair-raising pitch. Raising her paw to her mouth, claws dripping with blood. She laughed and with a cockiness look, her finger waged him a playful no. Skipping to the side of the toad who she jumped on. Grasping his back of his head, sinking her claws into his skin. She laughed seductively, winking with acute flirtatious intent.
"Ya know... it's been awhile since I ripped someone open, and I've certainly forgot what frogs look like inside." Running her free claws down his stomach. Stabbing the blaster hole in his chest.
Gargling blood the toad tried to make words. "FUCK YOU!"
Bending close to his head, with in a finger of a distance of his mouth she grinned," No baby... Fuck You" growling she reared up. The toad struck with fear, binging his webbed hand to his face. She came down, slamming her claws into his chest she pulled down. Ripping his flesh for the world to see. Blood flowing from the gashes. She stumbled backwards. Crying out in pain the toad started to cream. She took a defensive stance. Rearing her claws, she lunged back at the toad. Swiping her claws across his head, ripping out his left eye. More screaming followed, but Kursed knew how to fix that. Overtop of him again, she plunged her claws into his neck. Grabbing she ferociously gouged him. Ripping out his main arteries and veins. Blood everywhere, all in the sand around them, Kursed's chest and legs drenched in blood. her blue fur turning a dark purple. Her snout covered in splashes of blood.
The blued vixen's back and shoulders expanding as she breathed over the toad. Her smiled widened. Giggles came from her lips, giggles turned int to an evil laughter. Calmness overcame her. The blood thirstiness rage subsided. Her ears snapped toward the sound of a clicking of a cocked pistol. Her right arm shot out. Her blaster rang out throughout the streets. A poor badger's brain had a gaping hole in it. Through it, a blue vixen was smiling.
Standing up she video recorded the area. But noticed the another was recording her. Her gaze then shifted to the café, noticing the waiter recording her. Most of the patron's dead. A wide-eyed waiter was staring at her. He was stunned, and was ruffed up looking from trying to defend her form the Lizard. They starred for a while. She took a slow step in his direction. Keeping eye contact she proceeded to come towards him. The wolf started to take steps backwards. Her legs jolted into a sprint. The wolf turned and ran to the back room of the café. Locking the metal door as he went. Kursed leaped into the café. Screeching to a halt on the floor. She felt the room, all its cracks and crevasses. She sensed the mind of the waiter in the back rom. His mind attempting to call for law enforcement.
"oh no you don't" as she slammed her fist through the glass in the door. Reaching down to twist the handle. The wolf gasped as glass pieces scattered everywhere. Pushing the door open, their eyes met. Fear pouring from the white furred male. He tightened up into a ball in the corner when she got too close. Closing his eyes and wincing at her arms drawing back.
But nothing happened. No pain, no claws driving themselves into him. He opened his eyes while cowering laying in the corner. Her blue eyes piercing his soul like the dagger they were. Her claws lingering near the side of his face. She was frozen, her form still. Kursed's mind came to a standstill when she realized that she was killing an innocent being. How could she kill this young waiter? He has done nothing to deserve a gruesome demise. Looking him up and down. His tattered clothes and apron. The trickles of blood running down his face. Gentle lowering her arms, withdrawing those talons of her. The young wolf began to stand up, using the wall as a guide for his back. He was height just barely making it above her own.
Reaching her paw out toward his chest she barked," Give. IT." Reading his mind, he didn't know what she wanted, "Give. Me. Your. Comlink. NOW" He flinched and give her his commlink. Almost tearing it off his wrist. Wasting no time, she opened up his network and began sifting through his data files. Finding her prize, she deleted it. Jutting out her arm again for him to claim it back. He took it back room her paw. She looked around the room.
"I'm sorry about the mess." she coldly stated.
The wolf's body language changed. Kursed still telepathically reading his mind as the situation got better.
He didn't know what to think,
' she's going to kill me, I'm going to die, my café is wrecked. You fucking blue bitch. I'd like to cut your head off. I'm am going to get fired because of all this shit if I don't act now. I got to contain her somehow.' -
'wow, I really messed up this café, I really don't care. This waiter though... he kinda cute. I should have killed him, I should kill him now because he knows my face.' kursed thought
"You gota name?" Her accent coming up.
He started to slide toward a kitchen utensil bench. Putting one foot over the other, "Ash. My name is Ash. Yours... Blue?"
She hated that nickname. Always reminding her of how different she was from everyone else. "Don't call me that White." She tried getting a jab at him.
Ash back up to the table and gentle felt for anything behind his back. On the table top behind his tail, he felt out what appeared to be a knife. "So, what's your game. You're not a merchant, then what are you?"
"Me, I'm nobody. You know I wouldn't do anything foolish right now if I were you." Her comment caught him off guard.
"What do you mean by that?" He fumbled the knife in his paw.
Kursed was sensing an incoming attack from the wolf. She started to tighten her mussels. Legs going steady and her arms ready for the slightest flinch of him. He started to step toward her.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you." She started to growl at him.
He growled bearing his teeth. Lounging with all his might toward her. In his right paw a butcher's knife coming down to her form. Kursed catching his incoming arm with both paws. Twisting him to the ground. His growled intensified. Grabbing her by the back of her hair. Flinging her across the kitchen. She skidded across a counter top, performing a backflip, and landing behind it. She whipped out her blaster. Bolts of red plasma raced towards him. Ash slammed himself to the floor and rolled behind the counter. Kursed leaped onto the counter and aimed it over the edge. No Ash.
'Oh shit' She thought. Suddenly a white paw came out from under the counter. Ash's own claw digging into her calf. She gritted her teeth and growled. He slammed her to the floor. Quickly crawling on top of her. They wrestled for the blaster. Ash chomped down on her forearm. Causing her to fill with rage. She brought her knees inwards. Using her strong legs to push him off. He stumbled back into a kitchen cabinet. The blaster slung into some part of the room. Kursed stood up and took a defensive stance. Brining her arms up to her face. Fists clenched and, in a fighting position. Ash rolled himself forward onto his feet. Performing a wolverine style battle stance, his arms brought to his sides. Cracking his paws, he reared his claws to face her.
"You know, for a waiter that was scared to death a minute ago, you quickly changed personalities!" She roared to him, frustration in her voice.
"well when your jobs on the line, kinda half to change attitudes." he shifted around. Ash slowly regaining his strength. Kursed bolted towards him. Slamming her fists into his face while catching his right hook. Ash stumbled to the ground. Swiftly she mounted him. Pinning his legs to the floor. And arms behind his head. Blood dripping from his mouth. He squirmed in her grasp. She starts to smirk at beating and Having dominating him. She felt so warm and soft to the touch. Her elegant frame reveling itself through heavy sweating. The white tank top of hers drenched, exposing her stiff nipples. She giggled while pinning his arms with one paw above his head, and in the other, taunting him with her sharp deadly black claws. She could feel the fear running its way back into his mind. Placing her claws on his chest she leaned in closer.
"Heeyyy... if you were watching the fight outside, then you should remember how I gutted that toad. I told him I'd forgotten what a frog looks like on the inside before I sliced him open. I'm starting to forget what a young male wolf looks like too..." grinning evilly she whispered in his ear," ya want to help me out. Hmmm Ash?"
Ash spoke up in a soft raspy voice," Do it. I want you to do it... you'll make my life so much better. There is nothing else you could do to me that hasn't already happened. I hate my life. Do it... what are you waiting for!" Tears came from his eyes. Dropping to the orange concrete floor below.
The sense of being Krystal came back to her like never before. Her breathing increased. She gritted her teeth and placed her claws on his upper chest. Sinking them into his flesh. The hesitant blue vixen was lost in thought and caught up in her morals. But she doesn't have morals, does she?
Ash looked at her, his life coming to a standstill and feeling the weight of death looming over him. Tired of waiting he barked at her," FINISH IT!"
Something clicked in her mind, sending herself into a spiraling downfall. Both paws grabbed his face. Ash was pulled upward into a forceful ruff kiss. For some reason she felt at awe that a person would want to die. Their life so horrible that they've lost the will to fight. He was fighting for his job, putting his life in danger to catch the criminal who was responsible for wrecking the cafe. The fact that his personality changed in the blink of an eye was astonishing to her. She felt so close to this ball of white fur. So similar in various ways. Kursed wanted to die herself. To end all the pain and emotions that haunted her every night. The kiss was all her lust and desire for someone who felt the same. It overpowered her to claim him for her own. The heat in the moment was too much for Ash to understand. Never would imagine such and elegant vixen would be smooching him after kicking his ass. But Ash himself fell in love with the blissful moment. Feeling that someone liked him, and that he didn't half to be nice to get it.
Kursed deepened the kiss pulling his head more against hers. Gentle pushing him back to the floor, her body keeping him at bay. Her nipples rubbed against his chest. Causing smalls moans to erupt from her mouth.
'this is so wonderful. I want him, I want him now...no...no...NOOO!, What the fuck am I doing?!'
She shoved him away from her. Panting she sat up. Starring down at the wolf. He was confused and happy all at the same time. Kursed stood up suddenly and whirled around to face the kitchen door. She huffed off in that direction. Walking outside to the firefight grounds. Ash confused and filled with questions he dashed after her.
"HEY!" He shouted but she had bolted into s sprint down the street. Ash stayed at the café while local Kew Global Security forces arrived.
End Long Flash Back
"Kursed... what are you doing?" Quickly drawing her paw down to her side, she looked up to see Ash awake.
"Ash! I was just... um... checking to see how bad your injury was. looks good." Kursed reverting back to her cold emotionless persona again.
"Why are you here anyway. Shouldn't you have hit the road about now?" He closed his eyes and pulled the covers up.
Taken back by this, Kursed struggled to find words that would answer his hatful statement. A little bit of anger reared itself in her. Fists clenched at her sides she felt like beating the shit out of him.
"Well I'm glad to see you too Ash. I stayed because my friend was hurt. If I didn't care about you than why would I bring you here?"
"Why would you care about me? Do you know how badly this hurts, do you want to know what I went through last night? I feel horrible Kursed." Ash touching his stomach.
"Well if it wasn't for me you'd be dead right about now." She interjected back.
"Oh, spare me. I wish you didn't. Why... why do you fuck up everything in my life?" He began to cry. Moving his paws up to hide his tears. But it didn't help. "You have broken my heart twice, you have cost me my job, you destroyed my café. Everyone one knows I'm your little pet so they never come near me. I can't be friendly without them looking around for you, and now, I'm fucked up here in this bed. The bill for this is going to be outrageous. I have not but 50 credits to my name kursed..."
"don't worry about credits, I'll pay for this. It's my fault anyway."
"My first experience flying involved me being tossed around the hanger bay, then to make matters worse. An ape, breaks into the ship through the air intake fan and tries to kill me. I end up stabbing that bastard so many fucking times. Just again and again. I slammed that blade into his arm, chest, thigh, any Fucking place. His blood covered my paws and my clothes. Then he gets me with his knife." Motioning to his wound, "I sank my teeth so deep into his neck I heard cracking noises. I ripped open his neck, blood was gushing everywhere." By now tears were rolling down his face looking at her with guilt. To Kursed he was being a baby. But the way he described how he destroyed an ape left an impression on her. She had new found respect for him. She would never kill as grizzle as that. "I made my way to the cargo hold because I knew there was emergence seats that I could strap myself into. Your flying was too much, I can't tell you how many times I was flung against the wall."
An awkwardness filled the room. Ash letting all his anger and frustration out. Every bit of it was directed toward Kursed. The blue vixen was motionless. So much pain had happened to her throughout her life. She never figured she could hurt someone emotionally as bad as she was. The white wolf was the only thing in this crazy universe who would call her a friend. Even going as far as 'lover'. In a lot of ways Ash reminds her of herself. The two had almost everything in common besides the split difference in personality. Both were alone in this world. He lost his parents and his home when he was 10. Left alone to wonder the galaxy forever. Bad relationships along the way, ruining his life every time. Both of them searching for answers for their parent's deaths.
Walking over to be at his side, she placed her paw at the bottom of his chin. Drawing his head up to look at her. Tears still came from his eyes. The white sheet littered from tear droplets.
Gazing into those water hues of green, she licked the tip of his nose. "I'm sorry Ash. I'm sorry for everything..." shifting feet back in forth of nervous habit. Her mind was in a tizzy. The feeling guilt finally took her heart by storm. All those years of killings and jobs. It felt as if the whole world was dropped on her shoulders. Ash has never hurt her or betrayed her throughout the 4 years of knowing him. Something neither Fox or Panther had was the innocents of being normal in a world that took so much. Fox may have lost his parents but still road on the fame his father left behind. Corneria viewed him just the same or greater than his father. Panther had no losses and was too flirtatious. Only desire in his life was women.
Soon the moment came too much to bear. Letting her emotions chart the course she finally broke the silence. "Look at me Ash..." His eyes stared in hatred, pouring out pain that has been locked up for too long. "I promise you this: I will never betray your trust or hurt you ever again." With that she shot her paw to the back of his head and pulled him into a tight kiss. Ash tried to push her off but her grip wasn't letting him. Eventually bringing her other paw up to his face to hold him. He tried pulling her arms off but Ash himself started to calm down. She felt his mind starting to cool off in this heated bliss of a moment between them. He was enjoying every second of it. The feeling of love again in this cold dark universe was overwhelming for the white wolf. Whining when she broke away to let them breath only to reignite the fire with his lips once *more.
Kursed too was overwhelmed by the sensation of love again. So long has it been since true love purely existed. She finally broke their bond by stepping back. Her legs feeling as if jello replaced them. Clutching her chest, she tried to comprehend what the hell just happened. Looking up to meet Ash's gaze.
"Are you going to run away again, like you always do?" He pitifully asked.
"No."
"Good."
Her eyes were filled with life. Something he has only seen once throughout all the years of knowing her. The vixen's eyes were so beautiful and elegant. But he knew deep down who she was, and no amount of beauty could change that. A lifeless killer and emotionless soul wondering the galaxy. Kursed was picking up on his change of thought from caring to disgust and hatred. Her head looked down at the floor and little tears splashed on her boots.
"It's my fault Ash." She sighed," everything is always my fault. From where you are now to my life in general. I know you think I'm a lifeless killer. That I don't care about anything, and... your right I don't. I spend my life not wanting to get attached to anything or anyone because they always end up hurting me."
He interrupted," I never said I thought of you as a lifeless killer."
"I can read your mind, your thoughts, even go into your memories and see your past. "
"I don't believe you"
Kursed push off from the wall and came to his side," think of something"
Ash took a moment and remembered no one in the entire universe could know. He remembered the night he was left in the world alone. His parents laying in a smoldering body pile. Strange ape like soldiers setting fire to everything, they had no tails, no fur, completely alien. They all were covered from head to toe in armor and possessed weapons like non-other. Then that long run, just running, sprinting away as fast as he could into the forest. The black plumes of smoke covering the sky on the horizon.
"I didn't know that happened to you. Your parents, your home, everything."
"Yes, I know, but how can read my mind. You've able to read my mind this whole time?" Ash started to blush.
"I'm a Cerian, I come from a planet in a nearby galaxy. Its home to foxes like me, who are blue. But there are other beautiful colors of my people. Cornerians would relate us to the Krazoa spirit worshipers on Sauria."
"what's Sauria?"
"A planet of Dinosaurs"
"What's a dinosaur?"
"You know what, don't worry about it."
He smiled at her for being really uneducated in the universe outside of Kew's golden sky.
"But my world is gone, it was destroyed. I lost everything, as far as I know I'm the only survivor. I don't want to talk about how I wasn't on the planet when it happened but once I knew. I began my search for why and who destroyed my world. Why my parent's spirits were taken from me. That's when my whole new life began on Sauria. I can telepathically sense distress calls from out in the universe. I went there and was trapped in a Krazoa crystal. I was going to be used to give life back into some evil ape doctor called 'Andross'. But it never happened. All I can remember was falling and grabbing my staff. When I looked up there was this orange fox with green eyes. He was the Leader of the Star Fox team. A mercenary group paid by the Cornarian Military to solve problems or act as security forces in among the stars. His name was Fox McCloud, best pilot in the galaxy. I joined him and his team. I even developed feelings for him." she started to trail off and stare off into space from the window.
"What happened to him?"
"Nothing, he took me off the team and grounded me on Corneria. He said the missions were getting too dangerous for me." sarcastically blurting out and shrugging her shoulders.
"Too dangerous for you? Really?" he started to laugh," it's very clear that you can handle yourself." She smiled and nodded to him.
"So, I stormed off and joined his rival's team, Star Wolf. I thought I could get back at him. That smug grin of his. If I meet him again... I don't know what I'll do."
"What did you say he looked like again?"
"He's my height, older than me by about five years, orange fur, emerald green eyes, and has a white patch of fur on his head, kinda like a Mohawk."
"odd"
"yeah, but I liked it."
"what about me? Am I any better looking?" he smirked.
Giving him a pretty smile," Your taller than him, and less... how do I say? Overbearingly protective? Ha ha let's call it that."
"Speaking of over protective, remember when I said 'everyone knows I'm your little pet' Is it true?"
"Don't ruin the moment Ash." Kursed's eyes reverted back to being an icy stare. Frowning at him she tapped her claws along the wall.
"I'm serious" he sat up to meet her gaze, causing the tone of the room to fall silent," Look, it's not like I didn't like our little affairs throughout the years. I just fill like I've always been your... don't take this wrong way...been your little whore you go and see whenever you feel urges. I mean yeah, I enjoyed the attention and the lustful desires but I have always felt like less of a male every time you visited me."
Shockingly the blue vixen didn't blow a gasket, she rolled her eyes, "Ash, you're not my little whore. At least I gave you some credits every time." She faces the window again realizing what she just said.
"My point exactly. Don't whores get paid too?"
"You were more than happy to do it."
"Yeah, you gave me a five hundred credits a night, that's way more than I make in a week at the café."
"You loved every bit of it, you sly wolf." Glancing back to him only to have her ears perk up at the sound of a door squeaking open. Both of them directed their attention to the figure coming in. It was the brown furred cat again.
"Hello! Nice to finally see you awake sir! Are you filling okay this morning?" she purred to much in the delight of her own voice.
"Um... yes, yes I'm feeling much better." Ash smiled. Kursed rolled her eyes.
"Well that's great hon, now do you mind if I look at your injury?"
"go right ahead" Ash pulled the covers to his waist and lifted up his shirt for her to see," now, um... how much is this going to cost?"
The fluffy brown cat inspected his stitched stomach. Kursed was about to grab the nurse and smash her though the window. The thoughts of the cat kept drifting back to thinking how good looking his frame was and other things Kursed didn't want to know.
"Honestly that depends on your story you tell the police." the cat replied. The blue female moved in on them.
Kursed interjecting herself into the conversation," We'll be more than happy to tell them what happened but I think Ash here need some rest. Rather than dwell on last night."
"Ash, Ash is your name? That's so cute! But yeah, I'm sure the authorities will understand... it's not like you can leave the hospital without paperwork being done."
Really holding her tongue from speaking her mind on how the nurse was looking and talking about Ash. She felt really silly though having the urge to defend him from other females, and letting them know that he was hers. Maybe Ash was right. Maybe he really was her little whore who she watched over and kept others away. No matter because she didn't care. It gave her a thrill knowing that Kew scum knew he was hers. If they still wanted their head, they keep away from him.
The Nurse turned to Kursed and handed her a clip board filled with forms. The blue fox's eyes widened at the empty boxes for information that she wouldn't dare put down. She simple smiled and thanked her. The nurse turned and gave a wink to Ash then preppily stepped out. Looking at Ash, Ash knew she was pissed.
"She was only being nice" rolling his eyes
Throwing arms in the air, "she wanted you, flirting with you while I'm standing right here."
"While maybe she thinks you're too old for me" he said looking away while taking a sip of water.
Kursed huffed at that. Too old, she was just six years older than him. How old did she look? Taking a seat next to him her fears of the coming hours began to play in her mind.
"Ash... we should really get out of here while the police are occupied elsewhere. These papers they want me to fill out, I don't give out my personal information. Look at me... if they were to find out who I was... we would be in jail."
"You would be in jail."
Kursed laughed," you really don't know how this game works. You're with me, they'll take you as well. Like my accomplice or however you want to look at it."
"So, you made me a criminal now. Great!" Bosting a bold thumbs up too her face.
"whatever, lets figure out a way to get the fuck out of here un noticed." she glanced out the door down the hallway.
"Come on..." Ash slowly crawled out of the bed," puts some pants on."
"they took my pants; can we take the bed too? I've never laid on anything comfier in my life."
An annoyed look was given towards Ash," you have no underwear or pants. Where are your clothes from yesterday?"
Hiding himself with a sheet," covered in my blood, considered hazardous material."
"wait here." Kursed stormed out of the room, Ash lost sight of her at a corner. Then a loud thud rang out, the cat nurse falls to the floor then is dragged away behind the wall. Soon Kursed appears with white pants in her hand. "put these on"
"are you serious!? Is the nurse oaky?" he gasped.
"Yeah, she's fine. Now hurry. Someone had to have heard that."
Ash slipped on the poor nurse's pants and followed the vixen to the emergency stair well, passing the nurse who was bleeding from the nose. A puddle forming around her head
"She is not fine"
Kursed turned and smiled at him, "Bitch deserved it." With that she skipped to the stairwell door. Down they went, floor after floor. Soon reaching the bottom. Peering through the view port, she could see the lobby and other patients. Taking Ash by the paw to lead him her way. Making it outside of the hospital. She was becoming very suspicious from it being too easy to go unnoticed. But this was Kew, not known for having a great police force. Going through a garden full of vibrant life to the parking lot. Her hover bike still in its same spot. One final look around to catch wiry eyes. She mounted the seat, patting her thigh for Ash to follow suit. He climbed on and wrapped his arms around her waist. She could tell he was nervous. Ash had never been 'awake' while riding on her hover bike. With couple flips of switches and a kick to the foot lever, off they went. Kursed tried to remember the way back the Spirits Ghost. Gliding over crowded market streets, full of sent and aromas of delight. The pair hadn't eaten in a while, and the smell of warm sizzling flesh made them hungry as hell.
"You hungry!" kursed shouted back to Ash over the sound of rushing wind.
"You should know mind reader!" he hurled back.
Smiling she throttled the thrusters. She knew a place that was good, and didn't ask to many questions. Flying downwards into the city, the building becoming more cramped and tighter spaced. The bottom of the building held small café and shops alike. The structures weren't resting out like where they had just come from yesterday. No, the building took on the color scheme of grey, copper, and light blue. The blue vixen halted her bike in a small area next to a garden. With the bike hovering silently, they walked together to the various diners and cafes lining the street.
Kursed bought Ash a hot meal from a local diner that served sandwiches and alcohol. Ash was amazed at how much she could scarf down. He didn't think it was possible to eat that much in one sitting.
"Do you always eat the much?"
Wiping her mouth, "when you do the job I do, you don't get to eat very often. The amount I take in, I burn every bit of it... Are you going to finish that?' she giggled. Ash pulled it to him more with a playful smile. Kursed grinned as she stood up, "Hey, I'll be right back." Going back to the bar leaving Ash's sight.
Ash finished his meal, but felt troubled minded. Staring at his reflection in a glass. He wondered what came over him. An urge to run away before she came back. He knew in his gut she would ruin his life even more, but he didn't understand. He glanced out the diner's window. A perfect path to a starship hanger bay. He felt running down there and begging any pilot or captain to take him with them. The urge was powerful and his mind seemed dead set on it. The knowing of not knowing also troubled him. Kew is all that he has known. He wouldn't know where to go or how to adapt to a culture or society elsewhere in the universe. But Ash was weighing that option against Kursed. She had taken so much out of his life, buts he didn't seem to be affected at all. He laid the possibility of running away on his mental table.
Leaning against a post, a blue vixen sobbed quietly. Clawing her face to wipe away tears. She had heard Ash's thoughts. The feeling of fear fell upon her mind again. Stabbing her mental being like a knife. She had just gotten Ash back. The thought of coming back to an empty table was making her even more upset. Clawing her forehead to cause pain, something to take her thoughts off of Ash. But it did nothing, just make her sink further into a hole that she keeps digging. She is bonding with Ash, and making him more than just a friend. But now he's on the verge of leaving. She thought only one thing, "I really am cursed."
End Chapter Two
I know your waiting for the rest of the actual characters to rear their heads. Don't worry, they're coming down the road into chapter three. I'll keep making the chapters longer. Also, to clarify the confusion... The flashbacks are when Krystal meets Ash four years ago. Her blowing up his café was a day prior to him showing up to her starship at the beginning of the story. It's completely destroyed, not like how it's damaged in the first flashback.
