"The plan." Alec said, "is simple. A series of controlled experiments
should disprove Logan's theory that the beeper is indestructible. Now I
have a few preliminary ideas such as immersing it in boiling oil, letting a
train run over it, and attaching it to an explosive device etc. We have a
tight schedule but I think that we can get the whole list done in 24 hours.
That way Logan can use the warranty." Max raised her head from his chest to
look at him.
" Alec…I don't know about this. I mean Logan gave it to me. I can't just destroy it."
The beeper beside them beeped. They jumped.
"I thought you turned it off." Alec said.
"I did…That's funny I don't remember turning it back on."
The beeper beeped again.
"What's Logan doing paging you at 4:30 in the morning anyways? It's like he's asking for you to try and kill it."
The beeps were constant and unending now.
"I don't know." Max replied "It must be urgent." She picked up Scarlet and dialled.
Logan had been paging Max for 5 minutes. His only goal was to get Max's head off Alec's chest. When she finally did he pumped the air with his fist. Then Max reached for a phone. A cell phone. A cell phone that Logan had never seen before. The phone rang.
"Hi Max," He said cheerily into the phone.
"Logan it's 4:30 in the morning why are you paging me?" Came the grumpy voice from the other end of the line. It was then that Logan realised he didn't have an answer to that. Not one that she would accept anyways.
"It's Normal." He replied. " I… My sources say that he maybe connected to the familiars in some way." *good one* Logan thought mentally patting himself on the back. "Normal? You've got to be kidding me."
"I'm serious Max. I need you to go search his place see what you can find."
"Tonight?"
"Now Max! Something big is up I can feel it."
"Fine I'll call you when I'm done."
"Be careful Max."
Logan hung up the phone. * Did Max get a cell phone and not tell him? * He wondered.
"We have to go search Normal's place"
"Now?" Alec asked.
"Apparently. Wait here while I get my cat burgling stuff on."
" Max I can't burgle in these pants." Alec pulled the covers aside to reveal red track pants. "I make enough noise in these for a normal human to hear."
"No one said you had to."
" You mean you're actually going to let me get out of this?" Alec asked hopefully.
"Not a chance in hell." Max replied ruffling through her closet. She found what she was looking for and threw it on the bed. "Put this on."
Alec looked down to find a gladiator outfit sprawled on the bed.
"NO WAY!!!! No! Not happening." He yelled.
"Alec I need you to…distract Normal."
"You are sick! Do you know that? And who in their right mind has a gladiator costume in their closet anyways?"
"Two words. Heat and Halloween. Now where did I put that rubbing oil…?"
"You can't be serious."
"Alec if you do this I will rub you in oil myself."
Alec's eyebrow raised. "Keep talking" he prompted.
"In my underwear" Max continued. Alec was such a pain in the ass she thought. Alec made a keep going gesture with his hand.
"And I'll help you destroy my beeper." Max said wearily. Alec paused. When he saw that that was the best deal forthcoming he picked up the gladiator suit and put it on.
" I need a sword Max" Alec complained as they sped down the street on the Ninja. "There is no way that Normal will buy it if I don't have a sword."
"Alec shut up! Or I might just have to give you some wounds for Normal to tend."
Max slowed the bike in front of Normal's house. The house was immaculate from the outside. They pried open a window and were instantly inside. They looked around them and stared.
Logan tapped his fingers impatiently on the table. Max had left her pager on her bedside table leaving Logan with a view of her empty bed. The cell phone thing was bugging him. Maybe he should call Alec and ask if he got a new cell phone. Good idea Logan thought and reached for the phone.
Max and Alec gawked at the room that confronted them. Every inch of wall space was covered in pictures of Alec. Most were taken from Jam Pony surveillance tapes but there were others. Alec drinking at crash. Alec delivering packages. Alec fighting in a ring.
"Ok. I am officially very creeped out." Alec whispered.
They heard stirring in the other room.
"Go get em tiger." Max whispered and pushed him in the direction of the doorway.
Normal was lying peacefully in his bed. Alec sat down in a chair next to life-sized cardboard cut out of himself. Alec relaxed Normal was snoring like a pig nothing was going to wake him. He readjusted his position in the chair and heard the crinkle of paper. Between the cushion and the chair Alec discovered a blue folder it was marked with the sign of the familiars. * Shit * Alec thought to himself and opened the folder. His designation stared back at him. Then Alec's cell phone rang. He stood up abruptly the folder in his hand. He was pretty sure this is what they had come for. He fumbled with his cell phone but it was too late. Normal stirred, sat up and rubbed his eyes. Alec hastily shoved the folder back under the chair and smiled at Normal.
"Come here let me rub your aching muscles." Normal purred. Alec shuddered and took a step forward. Normal's oily hands caressed his skin and Alec focused on his hatred of the beeper to keep the contents of his stomach down. * His price had just gone up * Alec decided. * Max was going to help him give him that oil rub naked and she was going to help him torture Logan*
Max had searched the house and found nothing. Now it was time to save Alec. She could hear his barely perceptible whimpering through the door and opened it to see Normal naked except for his Monty Cora boxing shorts with his slick hands caressing Alec's chest. Fingers pinched his nipple and Alec yelped.
"Where's your sword Alec?" Normal asked.
Alec looked imploringly at Max who snapped a picture with her cell phone and then quick as lightening put Normal back to sleep with a blow to the back of the head.
"Now why couldn't we have done that in the first place?" Alec said annoyed.
"And miss an opportunity to see you in a gladiator outfit?"
"This better be the awesomest oil rub in the history of oil rubs." Alec grumbled as he grabbed the file and stuck it down the back of the leather skirt.
Back at Max's. Max pushed Alec down onto her bed. Teasingly she unzipped her catsuit inch by inch. Revealing a lacy black bra and panties. Slowly deliberately she poured oil into her hands and slid them smoothly along Alec's chest. Alec moaned as she kneaded his firm muscles. She climbed on top of him and slid her scantily clad body along his. Her hands glided along Alec's arms and their finger intertwined. The file fell to the floor unnoticed. Alec ran his hands up Max's back as she ran her fingers through his hair. * This was definitely worth it. * Alec thought.
Logan watched the scene in a haze of red. It was time to up the ante.
A/n Sorry if I take long times between updates but school is really busy right now.
A/n2 any suggestions people have for murdering the beeper please submit and I will incorporate as many good ones as I can into the story.
A/n3 Thankyou for everyone who has reviewed you guys have been awesome. I was kind of worried that no one would review when I started because this is my first many chaptered fic!
