" You want to what?!!"
Raven and Moonbay were sitting in their new hotel room. He had been looking out the window watching all the bright lights and stars and people with Shadow. The city was still amazing to him. So much to look at.
But now he was looking at Moonbay in shock.
" Go out on the town. We have plenty of money. And this is so secluded a town, they don't know who you are or what you look like. What say we hit the casinos hard?" She asked.
" We're not even legal yet!" He said.
" Like one year or so makes a difference. We're going to use fake I.D.'s." She said handing him one.
" He's ugly!" He said handing it back.
" He's 21!" She said pushing it back.
Raven groaned and put the I.D. in his back pocket. Moonbay stood up from the bed and walked around Raven looking him up and down.
" What?" He asked.
" You're going shopping. Take this card and spend to your hearts content. Buy yourself some new clothes and whatever else you like." She said handing him a credit card.
" What?! That's crazy!" He said.
" No, THAT'S not mine. I sorta stole it when that guy bumped into me. You know the guy who's nose you broke?" She said.
" He was a jerk. I should'of broken more than that." He said.
" Raven.! I'm going to buy somethings myself. Come down when you're ready." She said.
With that she left.
" So he's paying for our night on the town huh? Well, maybe I'll buy a few things. What do you say Shadow?" He said.
The organoid roared in agreement.
*************
After about 2 hours worth of shopping, Raven had spent at least $1000. He got himself some designer clothes and expensive sneakers. That had come to about $500. Then he went to the jewelry store and bought himself a diamond stud earring. It was in his left ear and it shined bright enough you could see it from a mile away in the sun.
Then he bought Moonbay an 'I-was-thinking-about-you' present. It was a gold bracelet, necklace and earrings with diamonds and rubies in them. The set cost quite a lot. The management didn't think he could pay for it. He was some old guy that had a bad toupee on and he thought it hid his baldness.
" We can't put this out for show kid." He said.
" I don't want to look at it. I want to buy it Headdie Murphy." He snapped.
" Why don't you go and get your parents and I'll talk to them you little punk." He said.
" Just gimme the shimatta jewelry Domer Simpson!" He said putting money on the counter.
The man changed quick and catered to Raven's wishes. Before he left, he wanted to get a little retribution.
" Oh my god is that a wig? YOU'RE WEARING A WIG!!!!" He yelled so loud everyone looked.
The man turned bright red. Raven walked away snickering to himself.
***************
When he returned to their room, Moonbay was already dressed. She was standing in front of the mirror in a red dress. It had one strap and it went down to her ankles and a split that showed some thigh. A black dragon that curled around her body and it's scales were lined in gold.
Her hair was done up in a bun with two eartails on her either side of her face. He could tell she had just had it done because she smelled like Sprits. Her nails were painted red to match her dress. Her shoes were heels that had straps that tied at her ankles.
On her face was red and black eye shadow that made her look very mysterious. On her lips was cherry red lipstick. It gave her mouth this sexy, pouty look.
Raven's jaw almost went through the floor. He closed the door and looked at the number on it. It was the right room. When he came back in, Moonbay was sitting on her bed.
" You have no idea how much money I spent." She said.
" What runway did you walk off of and where is the transporter I left here?" He asked.
Moonbay laughed.
" It's me. I just got really dressed up. If I'm going to past for 23, I have to look 23." She said.
" Yeah, I guess." He said walking in.
Shadow was lying asleep on his bed. His head rose when Raven sat down. His bag fell over after he got his clothes.
" I'm going to go change." He said.
" I'm going to go in the lobby! Be right back!" She said grabbing her purse.
Raven waited until he heard the door close. Then he went to take a shower. He disrobed and stepped in. The warm water washing over his body relaxed his muscles. He still didn't understand the transporter girl. He didn't even know why he saved her. He did it twice. He winced as soap got into his wound; reminding him of the battle with Specular.
He wasn't sure exactly what it was that made him so mad about the blue organoid attacking Moonbay, but he got very angry and didn't like it.
He chuckled to himself. He was starting to care about her. He didn't remember the last person he cared enough about to save. Of course, she saved him first. But he had more than paid her back, so he couldn't put it on that.
" Just stop thinking about it and kill her." Reese's voice echoed in his mind.
" Go away Reese." He said.
" But she's the enemy's friend. You have to kill her." She said.
" I don't have to kill anybody." He said.
" You have to kill her!!" She nearly shouted.
" Green is not your color Reese. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to get going." He said.
" But-"
" Bye Reese." He said.
After he was done in the shower, he got dressed in a sandy brown suit. He wore a white dress shirt under it and black, military style dress shoes. He didn't bother to do anything with his hair. He liked it that way.
Moonbay catcalled from her seat on her bed. Raven blushed a little and tried to hide the redness.
" You look great." She said.
" You look better." He said.
While they were talking, Shadow was digging through Raven's bag. He found the jewelry and was trying to eat it.
" Shadow! Gimme that you stupid organoid!!" He yelled.
Shadow shrank back and gave the set back. He didn't intend to give it to her yet, but now was as good as time as any.
" What's that?" Moonbay asked.
" I saw this and thought you'd like it." He said handing her to set.
" Oh wow! Raven it's gorgeous!!" She cried standing up.
" It's nothing really." He said.
" Nonsense! I love it! Thank you so much!!" She said throwing her arms around his neck.
Raven was a bit surprised, not to mention beet red. No one had ever hugged him before. He wasn't too sure what he should do, so he just patted her back.
Moonbay let go and went to put them on. She came out a few minutes later with the necklace in hand. She turned around and handed I to Raven.
" Will you help me?" She asked.
" Uh.Okay." He said.
He hooked the latch on the necklace and lifted her hair from under it. It was softer than it looked. He wanted so much to run his fingers through it, but he suppressed the urge and told her he was finished.
" Good. Well then, as they say in TexMex City, vayamos viva la vida loca!!" She said.
" Si!!" He said.
They walked out the door; Moonbay on Raven's arm. Jubilation City had no idea what was coming their way.
A/N: In case you're wondering, Moonbay said: Let's go live the crazy life. This whole chapter just flowed from my fingers I swear. It took me 4 hours to get it all down! But you appreciate it right?! That's what I thought. Now then, I shall get to work on the next chapter-right after I find me some Cheetos.
