Chapter 9: The Blurred Line 2
You know when you have that feeling in the pit of your stomach when you know you did something wrong, well I didn't have that. Which is the scary part. After our love making (using the term very lightly), I remembered I still had a job to do. I looked over at Laxus who looked way more exhausted than I did. He started to lift himself off the floor. He saw that I was looking for the remains of what once used to be my clothing and decided to help in his own annoying way.
"I believe I flinged your panties over there," he pointed behind the table. I just rolled my eyes at him as I walked my way over to the table. I found them and tried to put them on as quick as possible. I found my shirt and my pants soon after . I don't know how my pants wound up on top of the fridge and my pants on the bed, but it happened. I quickly got dressed, but before I left out I looked back at Laxus. I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for, but he finally said, "Oh, don't worry about me, I'll be here when you get back," he said with a smirk. I just nodded and left for the next room over.
I opened the door to see Mr. Al fully awake and aware. It then hit me, 'He looks like he's been awake for a while, he probably heard everything.' I thought to myself. I pulled out the truth serum out of my bag and went to his bedside. I could see he was mentally freaking out. He started yelling curses at me and trying to reason with me. After giving him the shot I decided to give him the run down.
"Mr Al Katrast, this procedure is going to go rather quickly. I'm administering you this truth serum, you will answer all my questions and then I am taking you into custody. If this all goes smoothly you will be treated fairly kind and I'll make sure you get your own cell in prison. If you fell to comply, I will inflict massive pain on you, you will get sent into custody and put in the cells of your enemies who wish you dead, are we clear?" This idiot actually thought about it a few times before answering yes. "Good," I stated I took out a tape recorder and started to get on with the interrogation.
"Ok then, state your name and where you're from for the record," I started
"Al Katrast from Nimbus,"
"Who do you work for?" He started to fidget a little. "Answer the question, or I'll make you." This caused him to sweat a little more, but finally he answered.
"The dark guild, Black Mumba"
"Is this where you get your weapons or are they manufactured somewhere else?"
"No, they're made there so there's no middleman."
"I see who are the mages that create these weapons?"
"Two of the guildsmen in Black Mumba. They're twin artillery scientist, who have built and designed thousands of weapons of mass destruction"
"I'm going to need their names." He hesitated at this so I decided to remind him with my fist.
"Ok, ok, their names are Pax and Rum Lindenhoffen."
"I need the names of your clients and how long you've been selling these weapons as well as a list of these weapons."
"Look lady, I'm not a computer I don't know off the top of my head who I'm selling to or what's being sold off the top of my head. I'm just the guy who sets up the meetings and the deals and I'm the one who takes their money and delivers the weapon prints."
"So the weapons themselves are not physically traded, but their blueprints are?"
"No and yes, If it's something like guns or things that are relatively small, then they get sold physically. If its something huge, then the client gets the blueprints and the step by step instructions on how to put it together."
"Tell me more about Black Mumba, I've never heard of this black guild."
"Black Mumba is not a guild that focuses on the strength of a mage, but the intellect of the mage. The guild consists of a large group od scientist mages and scholarly mages that uses their brains instead of bronze to try and conquer the world. We focus on selling to get money instead of going on jobs. The only way to join is to become recruited. I was the top salesman where I came from. The fact that I could use magic was just a bonus. I was recruited 3 years ago. Judging by our tattoo, your from fairy tail am I right?" I didn't say anything and allowed him to talk. "They wanted to recruit 2 little girls from your guild, but it seems fairy tail got to them first.
"Who?" I asked.
"The one they call Titania and the scholar from East Hillstown Levi." 'I can understand why they'd want Levi, because she's really smart, but Erza's not that great,' I thought to myself.
"They have given up on my fellow guildsmen correct?" I asked.
"Who knows? Maybe," he said with an annoying smirk.
"Ok, last 2 questions. Where is Black Mumba located and who were you suppose to meet with today?"
"Black Mumba has 2 locations. One of them's a giant lab and the other is the guild's headquarters. The lab is on a deserted island hidden by a fog. Coordinates 89"105' The actual headquarters is in Grandonia coordinated 95"71'. I was suppose to meet with some representative from a wealthy family. They did not disclose the name of the family so that's all I can really tell you. Since I cooperated can you please let me have a cell to myself, I'll have a lot of enemies once the guild finds out that I talked."
"Fine I'll talk to the council for you, but if you try anything funny on our trip back, all that flies out the window." He just nodded. Get some rest we leave in 6 hours. I unchained him, but kept the magic cuffs on him. I also made the room inescapable, just in case. I didn't want any suprises. I than proceeded to leave his room. It interrogated one man and now I had to do the same with the other. 'My life has been turned upside down because of 2 men. One's got me involved in some high ranked weapons scandal and the other got me mentally drained,' I thought to myself bitterly.
Speaking of mentally strained, the blonde idiot's been in the same exact area where I left him except he put on his boxers. He didn't even drag his lazy ass on the bed. I just rolled my eyes. It looked like he had been resting while I was gone. Lucky him, I haven't been asleep yet and I have to drag that fool to another country tomorrow. I guess my footsteps woke him up.
"Mira come here and bring a blanket and pillow with you." Now I know we had a one night stand, but when did he get the power to order me around?
"If your cold get up and get your blanket yourself."
"Seriously your going to be like that after-" I decided to cut him off there.
"I don't even know what that was or what it means, so don't start using it as a way to get to me." I huffed at him and folded my arms like a little kid. I know I was being childish, but his aloofness was not helping the fact at all. He finally got up from his position and walked over to me. I felt his strong hand grab one of my arms and yanked me forward. He was dragging me toward the bed. Next thing I knew he threw me on top of the bed and got on top of me.
"Why do you have to be so god damn annoying?" He asked in a mocking tone. Before I could tell him to get off, I felt his mouth on mine. I forgot everything at that moment. I couldn't remember why I was mad or anything. The only thing I could think of was how skilled he is with his tongue. Right when I just started to respond he ended the kiss. I started to pout out of annoyance. Who told him he could stop?
"Now stop bitching for once and get some rest you have to finish the job tomorrow and it's a long ways back to Fiore," He stated. "So how did the interrogation go?" he asked.
"Fine he told me everything he knows." I felt him glift me up so he can get the blankets from underneath me I then felt him get in the bed next to me and pull the blankets over both of us. What really shocked me was when he pulled me into a spooning position with him. Not going to lie I was pretty comfortable. I liked the fact of having his strong muscular arm around me as I started drifting off to sleep.
"That;s good."
"Laxus."
"What?"
"What is this between us?"
"How the hell should I Know, don't over analyze it too much just go with it," I heard him say before I completely dozed off into a warm slumber. I didn't know either, but I was perfectly content on how we were at this exact moment.
