Taco Utopia

A run down sign barely still hanging up high above with a few letters holding on for dear life just about to fall off to the ground and land down on a passing bystander at any given moment. Hell if she knew any better she figured the whole sign would come crashing down with the littlest of gusts of wind let alone just a mere letter falling. She could only hope she wouldn't be the unlucky victim of such a scene taking place. If she is oh she is going to be so pissed. Hell the sign would be the least of this restaurant owner's problems. Especially when they would be personally introduced to the end of her guitar.

" Well this is promising."

Taking a moment to look away from the entrance door to shoot Ember a quick glare that just seems to have no effect on her letting out a small huff of annoyance throwing her head back with her chin held high trying to show clear defiance pushing open the entrance door without a second though causing what sounds to be like a very rusty bell to go off making her way inside just as her eyes turn to look towards the counter movement coming from down below out of the corner of her eye makes Kitty come to a pause. Movement that she looks down towards only for her eyes to go wide in horror when she sees a small brown creature quickly scurrying across the room away from her that makes her hands come up towards her mouth to stifle the scream that wants to escape her lips.

Hearing what sounded like a silent scream coming from in front of him turning his head away from a group of small wooden dining tables that look as though they are about to come crashing down with even the slightest of weightests being thrown on top of them without having a chance to react instantly Danny stumbles back when he feels Kitty literally jumping into his arms with her arms and legs wrapping tightly around him. This sudden motion that instantly draws Ember's attention making her glare furiously at the green haired ghost that just seems to be squeezing the daylights out of Danny as he tries desperately to stay upright.

" Kitty!? What the hell!?"

Sending an annoyed look her best friend's way only to receive a silent response in the form of Kitty raising up her left hand and pointing a shaky index finger behind her following her finger instantly a squeal escapes Ember's lips and she immediately copies Kitty's gesture and leaps up wrapping her arms around Danny wherever she can causing him to stumble back even more as he attempts to hold them both upwards until he can no longer take their combined weight and comes crashing down backwards with two bodies landing on top of him with identical thuds. But not a second later instantly he lifts his head upward when the sound of shrieks escape each of their lips before to his amazement he sees them disappear as though they were never there with this blazing speed. Such speed that it takes him a few moments to spot them finding them huddled close together on top of a table hugging each other's shaking bodies close to each other. A sight that he blinks at with utter confusion coming across his face before he sits upright rubbing the back of his head.

" Um ladies? You alright?"

Furiously shaking her head seeing her best friend's eyes looking around the room with nothing but suspecison and a bit of fear in her eyes unable to help herself from taking a quick glance around the inside of the restaurant looking for the smallest glimpses of that sick disgusting little brown fur ball. One of the biggest rats that she has ever seen. A disgusting creature the moment she had seen it made her wish that Cujo was here with them right now. He wouldn't let anything hurt his momma, especially some little rodent.

" Do you see it?"

" See what?"

" That rat! That frickin thing was huge!"

Taking a quick look around seeing no traces of any creature of any sort anywhere in sight looking back towards his blue haired wife seeing her eyes constantly looking around the room with suspicion Danny shrugs his shoulders.

" Nope nothing. Are you ladies sure you saw something?"

Unable to keep the look of disbelief from coming across her face the moment Ember turns her eyes back towards Danny suddenly the sound of a crunch is heard coming from down below. A crunch that makes Ember's eyes widen before she looks down just in time to hear the sound of one of the legs of the table snapping causing her to slide down the table with Kitty in tow causing the entire table to be flipped on its side. A loud commotion that echoes through the entire restaurant. So loud that mere moments later over their groans from the ground the sound of dishes slamming in the back is heard before the doors leading to the kitchen is thrown open revealing a rather large man. A man that to their amazement somehow finds a way to fit through the open doorway but just barely. To their amusement it takes him three tires before his belly makes it on through the doorway and wiggles uncontrollably like a wave. A baldheaded man wearing a shirt way too small for him as his large belly is seen expanding the fabrics of the shirt to their limit. This man that Ember and Kitty look towards with nothing but disgust across their faces that just keeps on deepening as the man looks around his restaurant before his eyes suddenly find their own. A man whose eyes suddenly darken with nothing but fury as he spots them sitting on the ground with their backs leaning up against one of his restaurant tables that has come to collapse.

" You!?"

Scowling instantly at the way he is looking their way with a chubby finger being pointed directly at Kitty before she has a chance to respond suddenly Ember watches the baldheaded man snap his attention away from them to turn his sights towards Danny redirecting his finger to point towards him as his chubby frame moves as fast as he can around the counter towards the front of the restaurant.

" You lot have got a lot of nerve coming back here after the stunt you pulled last night! I want you out! Go on! Get out of here! All of you!"

Without being able to get a word in edgewise as he feels himself being shoved roughly towards the restaurant's entrance doors making Ember snap up to her feet with this furious look across her face that only deepens from the way he sees her hair slowly starting to rise up right as he is a few feet from being pushed out of the restaurant suddenly Danny's eyes go wide as saucers as the unlikest of scenes transpires before his eyes. As with a blink of an eye with this a surge of speed Kitty leaps up onto the baldheaded man's back with her arms hanging loosely from his neck. These small arms that try their best to put her version of a sleeper hold on the man as he thrashes back and forth trying to get her off from his back, making her swing all around wildly like a ragdoll. This sight that Danny can only watch in silence with his mouth coming slowly open unable to believe what he is seeing.

Hmm? Maybe that's why it says sometimes Kitty

" Babypop!?"

Snapping out of his thoughts turning his attention over towards Ember finding nothing but an annoyed look across her face being directed his way sending her a confusing look hearing a sigh escaping her lips followed by her pointing her left index finger back over towards the scene of this baldheaded man spinning around the room doing everything in his power to grab a hold of Kitty and fling her off from his back receiving the message loud and clear releasing a sigh of his own with his head down slowly Danny approaches the man silently from behind. A man that is oblivious to his presence before it is unknown when his closed right fist lands clean into the man's stomach making his eyes bulge out from the impact the moment he turns to look his way. This large man that looks as though he is about to throw up at any moment from the way his face turns green making Danny retract his fist and leap back a few feet to get out of fire before he watches the man coming crashing down to his knees allowing Kitty's feet to hit the ground while she finds a better grip around the man's neck on the way down.

" Alright tubby listen up! Yes I'm talking about you wide load! And I only have one thing I want to ask you!"

Looking over his shoulder giving the young woman applying pressure to his throat his undivided attention nodding his head slightly indicating that he is listening the baldheaded man feels the pressure on his throat loosening.

" What were we doing here last night?

In almost perfect unison that is ignored instantly Danny and Ember facepalm themselves at the same exact time with matching looks of total disbelief across each of their faces. Disbelief that stays across their faces even after Ember glances back towards the restaurant owner finding his eyes pleading with her to do something. A look that is misunderstood when Kitty catches the look making her reapply her pressure on the man's neck.

" Yeah,yeah she knows who she is now answer my question or so help me. I'll roll your fat ass out of here to the nearest gym and handcuff you to a treadmill!"


Humming silently to herself feeling two pairs of eyes watching her every move glancing over her shoulder as she sees Ember and Danny looking at her with matching looks of annoyance and disbelief across their faces letting out a huff rolling her eyes Kitty turns her head back forward and starts to look up towards every single store and shop sign they pass on by.

" You know you two can stop at any time. I know you guys are married now but the matching looks is kinda creepy. Besides, didn't i just score us a free lunch?"

Making her point knowing by shaking the plastic bag in her right hand that is filled to the brim full of tacos hearing nothing but silence behind her letting out a sigh reaching into the bag to grab a hold of a taco slowly Kitty unwraps the taco as she comes slows down her pace so that she can walk stride in stride with them. A taco the moment she takes a bite instantly makes her eyes go wide as saucers before without any warning she spits up the mouthful of contents onto the sidewalk earning disgusted looks all around from everyone in sight.

" Oh god! That was awful! What the hell are those things made of!? Someone's old dirty sock!?"

Leaning forward to look past her husband at her best friend finding to her amusement the green haired ghost rubbing away at her tongue with the fingers of her free hand as though trying desperately to wipe the taste out of her mouth with her eyes twinkling Ember grins her way.

" Uhh Kitty? How would you know what a old sock tastes like?"

Snapping her head to glare at Ember seeing nothing but a teasing grin across the rock diva's face letting out a huff quickly Kitty turns her head away to look anywhere but in her direction.

" It was only one time and it was on a double dare."

Not truly believing what she is hearing, making sure to keep an eye on Kitty leaning over Ember whispers into Danny's ear.

" So that's how she ended up with Johnny."

Unable to help himself from snickering the moment he looks away from Ember and back towards Kitty finding a stern look being directed at him with nothing but the promise of pain in her eyes, instantly Danny goes deadly silent.

" If you must know that's not how I ended up with my snuggle bear. Well? Maybe? I can't remember. It was so long ago."

Seeing nothing but amusement coming across her best friend's face the moment she sees her opening her mouth with a retort Kitty beats her to the punch when she discards the plastic bag of tacos in favor of wrapping her arms around Danny's arm hugging it close to her chest causing the amusement to leave Ember's face and turn into an annoyed look.

" Besides that's not important now. We have a man to share now."

Rolling her eyes copying her actions by hugging Danny's other arm close to her chest causing nothing but a grin to come across Kitty's face turning her head back forward after a couple moments of walking in silence a confused look comes across Ember's face.

" Speaking of which, where is Johnny?"

Glancing at Danny feeling him shrug his shoulders indicating that he has no clue just like herself where the fourth member of their party is just when she turns to look at Kitty instantly Ember's eyes go wide when she sees a sinister smile across her face.

" Oh don't worry about him. Like I said last night. If he wanted to act like a disloyal mutt then i would treat him like one."

Staring at their companion in silence whose smile just seems to widen with nothing but mirth in her eyes feeling cold chills running up and down their spines sharing a quick look Danny and Ember scoot closer to each other. Oh she knew just where he was. Knew just where they could find him. She had warned him after all and now he had to pay the price. How it had gotten up to that point? That she can remember just like it was yesterday.


The Night Prior….

Unable to keep her giggles under control from the way Danny attempts to dance in front of a laughing Ember doing his best impression of a strip tease that just looks terrible taking a small sip from her glass glancing around all around the club looking for a glimpse of blonde hair finding none belonging to who she seeks frowning into her glass getting up from her seat the newly weds all but forgotten slowly Kitty starts walking around the club looking for Johnny. A boyfriend that she doesn't see anywhere. Not at the bar. Not at the front of the line where strippers could be seen shedding their clothes to the horn dogs standing at the end of their stage. Somewhere she thought she would find him for sure. He is a horn dog after all. She could remember the first time she and Johnny had gotten frisky like it was yesterday. He had been so cute back then. How shy he had been making sure they had enough privacy to do whatever they wanted.

And just like that she comes to a stop when it hits her. Privacy. The key word there. A word that just makes her eyes narrow dangerously and look around the club once again to see if anything is missing. To see if any of this hoes that have been walking around are missing. None that she could tell but she couldn't tell the difference. A hoe is a hoe in her book. And speaking of hoes as she watches one lead a very nervous and sweaty customer to the back holding his hand within her own moving from her spot silently Kitty follows after them. Follows after them stopping the door that they go on through before the door can close behind them. A door that she waits a couple of seconds before going through and going intangible almost instantly as she treks on through this long dark hallway being lit up by these dark purple lights. A hallway with numerous doors. Some in which she peeks her head through to look inside only to retract her head very quickly with a pale face that just speaks of nothing but horror across her face. But she continues on. Even after missing on the first couple sets of doors.

" So help me. If he's doing what i think he's doing then he'll be sorry. Oh he'll be so sorry."

A hallway that she nears the end of after a couple of minutes in silence leaving her with only two doors left. One on the left and one on the right. Two doors that she glances back and forth at before the moment she takes a step towards the one on the left suddenly a sound coming from the right door makes her come to a stop. Makes her blood boil and turn her head slowly to look towards it. The sound of a laugh. A familiar laugh. A laugh she knows from anywhere. This laugh that makes her turn and silently stalk over towards the closed door. A door that she leans towards with her ear nearly touching the door before she gritts her teeth when she hears his voice coming from inside. A voice followed by a girly giggle that just makes her lean back and crack the knuckles on her left hand.

" That disloyal mutt. If that's the way he wants to play it fine."


Confusion. A head splitting headache threatening to break at any moment. The common theme around a group of people gathered around. This group gathered around looking down at a scene that none knew what to make out of. Didn't know how to even report but one thing could be agreed on by everyone. This was truly a unique case. Something none of them have ever seen before. Well maybe that wasn't true. This could be seen as a costume for someone on Halloween. But that holiday is far away. This wasn't some sort of costume. No if they were to guess it is some kind of message.

What looks to be a young teenager passed out inside of one of the cages inside of the office used for one of the larger dogs that would be brought in here. A teenager whose face is hidden within his arms as he lays face down on the ground. Lays face down hiding his face to the world as what looks to be the paws from a dog costume glued to his hands if the white substance dried up around the outside is any indication. What looks to be the tail to the costume glued across the outside of his torn up jeans that lays across him as he mumbles. Such mumbles that draws everyone's attention making them look down to see this unknown man lifting his head up revealing their face. A face that has been recently drawn on what looks to be with a permanent marker. What looks to be black and white marker in the middle of his face expanding his nose making it looking like a dog's nose with two bold words written in the middle of his forehead.

Disloyal Mutt.

Such words that shock everyone in sight. Make looks of confusion go all around before they are left speechless when the first words escape the unknown man's lips as he silently sobs on the floor of the cage.

" Woof? Wooofff!
