Story Start
If people looked at the abandoned buildings, they would have found a strange scene. Four people and dogs are walkin about in that area. The undersiders finally arrived back in their base after taking multiple detours around the city. They got off of the dogs and started to sit down on the couch, wincing in pain. Brian took a deep breath and softly let it out, trying to not aggrivate his injured ribs. ''I told you we should have waited a few more days, Lisa. We could of died back there.'' He winces in pain and grabbed his sides when he tried to move his body.
''How many times do I have to say that I'm sorry? I didn't expect that the empire would smuggle the money today. I thought we had more time.'' Lisa apologized, grabbin a few pain killers from the bathroom. She gave them to everyone and she sat down on a chair.
''Well I don't know about you guys, but I want to check how much money we got from them. Let's see.'' Alec placed the bag with the money inside on the table and opened it. He started to count slowly, ''One hundred, two hundred, three hundred...uh... I forgot the number. Let me start again. One hundred, two hundred, three hundred...''
Rachel just started to groom her dogs after getting the shells off of them. As for the dogs, Angelica started to drink water, Brutus is laying on the floor watching everyone and Judas stayed still as Rachel started to take the stuff off.
Lisa rubbed her eyes feeling tired, hungry and slightly guilty for the situation, started to get a headache each time Alec recounted the money. She finally snapped when he 'miscounted' for the fourth time. ''Damn it Alec! It's forty thousand and two hundred and twenty six dollars. Our boss will give us double that amount in a few days. So don't spend it just yet.''
''So how much is that, exactly?'' He asked, tilting his head to the side. Rachel just grunts not paying much attention to the topic.
Lisa sighed and said, ''It's $80,452 and divide that by the four of us, it will be 20k each.'' Alec whistles impressed and Brian jumped back up at that amount. He hissed for a moment, before he went back down. ''That is a lot of money. How would I explain that to my case worker or my sister for that matter?''
''Nice, I could by that game console I wanted. This one is already a few months old.'' Alec fist pumped and flinched when he did it to hard.
''Don't worry about that. Our boss would handle all the paperwork for it. We'll keep our heads down for a couple of weeks and hopefully it'll blow over soon. Just get som...'' Lisa trailed off when she finally noticed that Rachel and her dogs are tensed up and looking at something. She started to move her head where they are lookin at and found a dark shadowy being looking in at them from the doorway. She spran into action by pulling out her gun and pointed it at the intruder surprising Brian and Alec, ''Come out from the shadows or I'll shoot.''
It was quiet as Brian started to make smoke from his hands after rushing to put his helmet back on and Alec to get his septor. They all tense up, waiting for the person to show themselves. Alec started to relaxe when nothing was happening and he was about to tease Lisa when he felt a hand tap his back twice. He slowly gulps and hesitantly spoke up, ''That's not you tapping my shoulder, is it Brian?''
''No, why?'' He turned to look at Alec and froze. Lisa rapidly moved her gun pointing at the person behind Alec, which he slowly turned his head and whistled. What surprised them the most is that the person standing behind Alec just let out a delighted laugh behind her hand.
Leadrieth spoke up after she finished laughing said, ''There is no need to be jumpy. I don't bite, much.'' She finished by showing her teeth in a smile. When they didn't react to her pun, she pouted, ''Boo, you guys should relax. I'm not going to hurt you, much. You left me all alone to fight those, ah, what do you call them?''
They tensed up in fear and Alec being a smart ass, who didn't know when to stay silent spoke up, ''A cape?"
''Yes capes. They weren't much fun, though. I think I should get something for helping you get away. So how about I'll take everything and I'll be on my marry way.''
Rachel finally spoke, ''No, my money. Rudas get her.'' She whistled and he growled before he rushed at her. Leadrieth rolled her eyes and glared at the dog, making it wimper and started to pee itself. He slowly moved backwards and hid behind Rachel's legs in fear. The other two dogs followed Rudas example and hid behind her legs.
Alec moved to the right while Leadrieth was focusing on the dog, Brian covered her in his power and Lisa pulled the trigger. Leadrieth disappeared as she ran passed her and grabbed gun before going back to where she was, but a few feet the the left. She showed everyone the bullet and the gun in her hands. She slowly crushed it, causin the group to flinch at the strength she showed and the sound of the metal breaking apart
Lisa started to use her power. It's a woman in her mid twenties. Her costume is very well made. Most likely got it customized by someone famous. Really rich.
'No not that.' She shook her head, starting to feel the headache getting a little worse. Very beautiful and graceful. Not a human or a case 53. Very dangerous to you. Would kill everyone in seconds with her strength. Doesn't care about you much, just wants the money and henchmen. Dont antagonize her, will do naughty things to you for fun. Do it and enjoy it. Her breasts are all natural.
Lisa gulped and grew nervous. Leadrieth smiled grew and she knew she would regret it, but she needed more information. Everyone stayed queit at the stare off between Lisa and the intruder. '.Has experience using force to get what she wants before. Possibly a queen, she has a presence and stature of royalty. Is she a vanpire? Confused need more info. She is starting to get annoyed and @#$%*.
A massive headache appeared and she groaned in pain, rubbing her head. ''What was that?!'' Lisa suddenly glared at her before she closed her eyes and sat down.
Leadrieth spoke condensendingly, ''Tsk tsk little girl, you should know better than to use your power on me. I wonder though, what did you get?''
Lisa gritted her teeth at the little girl comment, but she ignored it and told everyone, ''Guys relax, if she wanted us dead, we would be.'' She sighed and everone sat back down, but they were tensed still, well except for Alec, who decided to flirt with the dangerous cape.
''Hey lady, you remind me of the 20 letters of the alphabet.'' Alec said, trying to sound smooth.
''Dumbass there is 26 letters.'' Lisa deadpanned, not believin the balls he has.
''Oh right, how can I forget. U R A Q T,'' He said with a winked, causing everyone to just sigh at him. Lisa groaned and knew she should have said nothing. Leadrieth gave a small laugh, which caused her breasts to move up and down. Everyone focused on them and gave different reactions. Brian looked away, feeling his face gettin warm, Lisa felt insecure, Rachel just shrugged and Alec's grin grew.
''You forgot one letter.'' Brian informed him. Lisa just groaned and went to drown her incoming migraine with a bottle of pain pills. It wouldn't help but at least she would miss the incoming carnage.
''Oh yeah, you can get that D later, sweetheart.'' He said before he winced in pain, ''I need to heal up from my bruised ribs, because someone couldn't tell us when the empire capes were coming.''
Leadrieth laughed and shook her head no, ''I don't do little boys.'' Alec just shrugged and went to bed.
Lisa yelled out, ''It wasn't my fault! Go fuck yourself Alec.''
''I would if I could, but I can't. Goodnight mysterious lady, hopefully you don't kill us all.''
Brian tensed back up and Rachel slowly moved out of the living room and went to her room, never taking her eyes away from Leadrieth. Lisa came back and thought of an idea. 'Maybe I can convinse her to get rid of coil for me. She'll be better her than him.' Lisa spoke up, ''I agree to be your henchwoman, but I need your help to get rid of someone.'' She waited for her.
Leadrieth spoke, ''No problem. It'll be easy, just tell me who you want dead and I'll make it happen.''
''I'll tell you later. Is that fine?" She said giving a side glance towards Brian. Leadrieth nodded, ''I'll find you again later. I have to go.'' and disappeared. Lisa and brian looked arounf the room for her, but they didn't see it. They waited a few minutes and Brian spoke up, ''Wait, wait. You can't just do that, Lisa. How can we trust her? For all we know she could be a spy or something.''
Lisa just sihed and shook her head, ''If I didn't agree, we would have been killed by her. I don't know about you, but I would like to live. What about your sister then? Who would take care of her, if you are dead?''
He stayed silent and just walked away. Unbenounced to them, she came back and took 12k from the pile and left.
The next Day
I woke up grogerly, feeling something warm holding me. I tried moving my hands and body but they were stuck under something heavy. I snuggled closer to the warmth and went back to sleep. I heard a girl's voice murmur and they started to move around. Wait a minute... I opened my eyes and saw in bed with me, ''Uhh, Cathetel, why are you in my bed?'' When she stayed asleep, he started to gently shake her, ''Wake up sleepy head.''
She murmured and breary looked at me. She just stared, not processing anything so early in the morning. ''Let me sleep for a few more minutes.'' After saying that she closed her eyes and put her head back down.
I blinked not sure how to respond to that. Should I push her off of me or should I wake her up again? She looks so cute sleeping like that, I don't want her to wake up. Though I didn't have to do anything because she woke up and gasped, hugging me, ''Master?! Your awake! Thank goodness, we thought the worst when you suddenly fell down.''
She started shaking and I could hear her hiccuping softly as she cried. I just lightly patted her head and murmured soft words. I feel bad for making them worried, but I needed to make the anti-thinker device. We stayed like that for a while, until my body started to need to go to the bathroom.
''Cathetel, I need to go to the bathroom.'' I told her and she gave me a confused look. I tried to get out from her grip, but she tightened her hug. ''Uh Cathetel, can you let go?''
She pouted in anger, ''No! I don't want to leave you alone. Something might happen to you.''
I sighed and said something I would know that I would regret it, ''Why don't you follow me and you can hold my hand while I'm in the bathroom. Would that make you feel better?''
She gave me a bright smile and nodded. She moved to the side allowing me to get up and I just realized something when I felt the cold air on my body. I looked down and asked, ''Why am I naked?''
''Hmm, oh that? When Leadrieth came back, she said that you don't like to sleep with your clothes on and we took them off. For some reason, she paid extra attention to your bottom parts. What's wrong?" She asked after noticing my eyebrow twitching.
''Nothing at all. Where is Leadrieth anyway?'' I asked and starting to plan my revenge as I put on my underwear. Could she become a fallen angel if she sinned? I don't want to find out if she would turn evil. For some reason, I want to keep her all nice and happy.
''She said that she would make food for you.'' She said as we walked to the bathroom. I went in and realized a problem. I couldn't reach the toliet without her having to o in with me. I turned to look at her and she gave me a beaming smile. Maybe if I angled it correctly, I could make it, but before I could start my plan, someone decided that was a perfect time to show herself.
Leadrieth walked in and literally said gasp, ''Gasp, how could you. I thought we had something special, but now I see you just...Hahahaha'' She couldn't finish it and started to laugh.
I ingored her and tried to get Cathetel to let go by pulling my hand, but she wouldn't bulge. She gave me a small glare and Leadrieth used that to tease me, ''Do you need someone to hold your hand to go to the bathroom? Well I could your other hand and help you go.''
It's too early for this shit, right now. I brought Cathetel in with me and left Leadrieth outside. After a couple of uncomfortable minutes we left the bathroom.
"What were you doing in the kitchen? I didn't know you could cook."
Leadrieth responded, "I don't, but if you could cook, how hard it could be. I made your food extra crispy for you. You better eat it.'' She finished with a glare.
I nodded scared and went to the dining room/kitchen. I could smell a faint burnt smell and saw my food. It was a somewhat burnt bacon, eggs and toast. I ate it and tried to not gag.
After breakfast we went back into my room and sat down. I asked the question that's been on my mind, ''What happened after I passed out?''
Leadrieth replied, '' made sure that you were ok and they stayed behind with you. and I went to scout for a secret base and after a few hours we found one. made some runes to hide it from everyone. After that well... let's just say, I met some of the capes in this city.''
''What did you do? Did you kill anyone?''
Leadrieth looked hurt at the accusation, ''Why, I never even laid a finger on anyone. You should trust me more you know.'' On the inside, she was happily reminiscing all the chaos she caused and the bones she broke.
''Your right, I'm sorry for doubting you. How can I make it up to you?'' I rolled my eyes and scarcastically apologized. I knew her and unless I have proof she didn't do anything bad, I wouldn't believe her. She ignored my sarcasm and nodded happily, ''I want some more of your delicious blood again.''
''M-m-ma-maybe later. I am still tired and we need to get on with our day.'' I stuttered, my face warm still remembering the first time she did that and how my body reacted. I saw that smug smile and knew that she knew the real reason I didn't want to do it right now. ''Where is everyone else?''
''They are exploring the area and would be back shortly.'' Cathetel spoke up.
I nodded and thanked her for the info. 'What to do now? I need to go to the library and login to my PHO account and check if anything interesting happened while I was in the coma.' I looked at Leadrieth and asked, ''Do you want to go to the library with me? I need to look up some stuff.''
''No thanks. I don't like the dusty book smell. I'll just go around the boardwalk and see if I could find something I like there.'' She said scrunching up her nose as if smelling something foul.
''Ok that's fine, but before that we need to buy a phone for you.'' I said, ignoring on how she would pay for anything. Some secrets are best left buried.
''That's sound good. Do you know what colors they have? Can I get mine blood red or black?'' She asked exitedly.
''I don't know, but we'll find out when we get there.'' I said getting up and walked outside the house. I locked it and we left.
