CHAPTER THREE
The Holding Cell:
"You're not going to get away with this," Nicole demanded as she sat tied down to a chair. As Evil Nedley made his way into the room.
"If I were you, I'd calm down and conserve energy." He replied.
"Nedley, this isn't you."
"You're right." Suddenly Nedley morphed into an Evil Wynonna. "Ah yes, this is so much better."
"So your some kind of shapeshifter...well it's good to know when they come for me."
"Oh, you didn't think I'd leave that door open and have you missing. So that they'd come and look for you. " she grinned. "No, it was your willingness to help, that helped me. It was you who looked into that creek." Evil Wynonna replied. "And it's your reflection that has switched with you. And no one will know the wiser, that is until I need them to." Evil Wynonna said leaving out.
The Mayor Office:
Waverly Haught had one thing on her mind. As each official continued to talk about what they needed for Purgatory, Waverly's mind remained elsewhere. She and Nicole had been intimate many times but last night was different. Her mind flooded back to the way Nicole's lips pressed against hers.
"I think it would be beneficial to go forward with the new restaurant on Belnors Street." One of the officials announced. As Waverly nodded, she couldn't help thinking about Nicole. How last night, Nicole had just given Waverly complete control. Not that it hadn't happened in the past but this made her feel. powerful and sexy. With one breath, Waverly also felt hot and bothered. Her eyes then drifted to outside her window at Nicole talking to Wynonna in the hallway. Nicole's every gesture was alluring, her dimples, her stance, her smile...her ...
The Hallway:
"I think he knows about the BBD proposal? He keeps making comments as if he wants to know if I made a decision. Which I did, I'm a Mom now and a wife, I'm trying not to mess up those things. Right now it comes first on my mind. Not BBD or the big bad of Purgatory."
"Didn't you ask me if I had an cases that you could help out with last week."
"Nicole, that was last week this week is different."
"Actually it's not, and I don't know maybe Wynonna, you still have a want to in your spirit to do BBD."
"Not BBD, just be a great member of my community and support."
Mayor Office:
"Well, Madame Mayor, what do you think?" A voice added breaking Waverly's focus.
"Umm..." she shook her head. "I say let's adjourn for lunch and will meet back at two for further discussion."
"Ok." One of the demons said as everyone began to leave out. Waverly grabbed her stuff and made her way over to Wynonna and Nicole.
"So anything new on the Purgatory front?" Waverly asked.
"Just your normal fare. Speaking of, Wynonna, want to come to check out Piney Thomas's barn with me? Something or someone has been stealing his sheep and I'd like to check it out or get a statement."
"Oh yes, please Haughty..."Wynonna begged. "the force is boring with this one." Pointing at Waverly, who shook her head annoyed.
"Um, Nicole, I thought we could have lunch together," Waverly said embracing Nicole's arm.
"Sure Waves, but."
"But Wynonna can handle this alone, or with Doc," Waverly added to increase pressure.
"Or just me," Wynonna added with a grin. "I mean I am BBD deputized and familiar with a squad car," Wynonna said. As Nicole looked at Waverly and then Wynonna.
"Okay, but light questioning, and if there is a perp escort them here, that's it," Nicole replied.
"Ok, cool. So Keys?" Wynonna asked.
Moments later...
"Really? A Parking Maid golf cart?"
"We all have to start somewhere, Wynonna," Nicole added.
"If you weren't my best friend, I'd say you're trash," Wynonna said grabbing the keys from Nicole's hand and walking towards the golf cart.
"I'm eighty percent sure, we will not get that back in 100 percent condition," Nicole said with a grin, as Wynonna took off as fast as she could. Suddenly, Waverly kissed Nicole passionately catching her off guard. As they pulled back, Nicole looked at her confused. "So I take it...that's what you want for lunch?" she added as Waverly excitedly nodded yes and pulled her back into the police garage.
BBD:
"So she turned it down."
"Yes, Doc. She wants to stay in Purgatory." Jeremy replied while typing on a computer.
"You know Jeremy, I see her on the homestead doing all these domestic things and I think part of me is happy she wants to be wife and Mom. But then there's a part of me that sees she needs this."
"Well, maybe Waverly will offer her a position under her, or Nicole."
"Jeremy we're talking Wynonna."
"You're right, well how are you going to get her to come back to BBD?"
"I don't know." Billy entered giving Jeremy a tablet.
"Dr. Tolbert said to give this a look immediately." He announced as Jeremy took it and read it, he paused concerned.
"Doc, I think we may have something," Jeremy commented, he then showed Doc.
"We need to find everybody," he added.
Police Garage:
"Well, that was...some kind of lunch," Nicole said kissing Waverly's bare shoulder as they laid together under a blanket in the backseat of an old police cruiser. "I never knew you could..."
"Me either." She said flirtatiously tipping Nicole's Stetson that now sat on her head.
"I wish we could do this forever," Nicole added as Waverly looked at her concerned.
"We can?" Waverly questioned. Nicole shook her head.
"Of course..." she quickly replied. "I just thought about the fact that we can't keep skipping lunch." She replied awkwardly, as Waverly smiled.
"Oh...I just thought, you know, how you feel about us being private and all."
"Why would I care? I mean I've never felt this way before and suddenly it's all the time, why hide it?" Nicole added as Waverly conceded. "I mean, I LOVE LUNCHING WITH MY WIFE!" Nicole belted out as Waverly hushed her.
"Nicole." She said with a grin, as Nicole held their intertwined hands up to her lips and kissed Waverly's hand.
"You know there is just one problem," Nicole said as Waverly lifted looking at her.
"What's that?" Waverly asked.
"I could go for more lunch." She said kissing Waverly's neck.
"Oh, you do? Well, I think I can help with that" Waverly replied meeting Nicole's face and kissing her as the Stetson fell off.
Piney Thomas Ranch:
"New wheels, B**tch?" A familiar voice announced.
"Mercedes, what are doing out here?"
"Business, but why is the town hero in a golf cart?"
"Not hero and Piney trying to find the ones who have been going after his sheep."
"Oh that's not anybody, that's me." Mercedes took out a piece of paper and gave it to Wynonna to read. "Jed has a legally binding contract with Gardner LLC for the sheep's blood. We use it to manufacture our Skinny Red drinks for any demons that may procure the need for it through the purchase at Mercedes formerly known as the Glory Hole."
"So his son is killing the sheep."
"I mean supply and demand."
"So I rode out here in a dumb golf cart because of miscommunication? And deep family issues?"
"My guess is yes, but let's look on the bright side. You look fabulous doing so." Mercedes added.
"I do." Wynonna added.
"But you miss your bad assery days?"
"No..."
"Girl, it's me."
"Yes, sometimes as of late, it's been on my mind. But I'm a Mom now and"
"That doesn't stop you from being Whiskey soaked just not reckless. It just means you become super Mom and show your daughter the things that have made and still make you awesome." Wynonna's ringtone went off, she quickly answered.
"Yes...slow down Doc. What? Ok, I'm on the way,"
"Is all well?"
"We're about to see, do you mind giving me a lift to town?"
"Of course."
Sheriffs Office- BBD Headquarters:
Jeremy came into the BBD room with a tablet, typing as Wynonna, Waverly, Nicole, Mercedes, Rachel, Billy, and Nedley all sat around.
"So, about a month ago, we detected some slight paranormal activity in Monument. We didn't think anything of it, just that it probably was left from BBDs incredibly idiotic portal plan." As Jeremy's eyes fell on Rachel." And my sincerest apologies Rachel."
"Your Mom was a hero," Wynonna added as Rachel nodded yes.
"So we placed some trackers and monitors, just in case. The monitors concluded fog."
"What, but that went away when I" Waverly added.
"That's just it, it wasn't mind-altering and it doesn't give any significant effects. It came and it went."
"Doesn't sound too strange for this gathering of minds," Wynonna added.
"It does, when today, we got this." Jeremy pushed a button and on the big screen, revealed a doorway from the Garden. "Familiar?"
"No," Nicole added.
"That's because it's from the Garden?" Waverly added.
"The garden?" Rachel asked.
"Yes."
"There were these doors, in the garden, and thanks to Nicole, Mam revealed the right door for us to get back," Waverly added looking over at Billy who looked down.
"This can only mean, she's here."
"Who's here?" Billy asked.
"That slithering trickster, Eve," Doc announced.
"Like as in Adam and Eve," Nedley added.
"The one and only," Waverly replied.
"Well, we must prepare to..." Doc added.
"To what?" Wynonna stood and walked over to the screen, looking at it. "Fight? How? She can be anyone...even any of us." She then turned back around facing everyone.
Sheriff Office- Holding Cell:
Suddenly Nicole held steady as the floor of the cell rumbled, Evil Wynonna made her entrance again.
"Well, that would be step one." she happily announced.
"In your demise, because Waverly and Wynonna will come for me and they will take you out."
"Waverly and whom?"
"Waverly and Wy..."Nicole paused, she looked at Evil Wynonna. "I don't remember."
"Yeah, I know. Isn't it wonderful? The longer you're here, the longer they fade away." She added hysterically laughing.
