Chapter 2: Getting Adjusted

A few hours later, V picked up Jackie and the two were on their way to where the job was. Mako, however, didn't want him to go, wanting to cuddle with him more. The Corpo gave her a kiss on her cute little nose and promised her that he would be back.

Right now the two were sitting in V's Thornton Colby, which had a built in combat mode, a roof turret, and for stylistic choices: a Sea blue paint job that faded into black along the side and body lines to resemble a giant squid, green headlights and a hood ornament that looked like the angel in Captain Nemo's quarters in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Inside it had black and green interior and an official Maneater Bull Shark bobblehead on the dash.

"The chick we're looking for is in this building." Jackie said. "Probably crawling with the pendejos that took her. Eyes and ears open, alright?" He added.

"Got it." V nodded as he brought out his pistol. The two then started making their way through the complex to find their target. "T-Bug, what do we have on our target?" He asked over the comms.

The image of their netrunner T-Bug, a black woman with a shaved head appeared on his comm section optic. "Target's Name is Sandra Dorset. Her biomon went dark a few hours ago and there's suspicion that she may have already flatlined. Not sure you're in time." She stated.

"We won't know 'till we get there." Jackie said as they got in an elevator. "Ya know, Bug, you might be on comms, but you're still part of the squad." He told the netrunner.

"Squad, charming." The woman stated sarcastically.

"Little less attitude would be appreciated, Bug." The Corpo stated.

"If you want less attitude, call a damn hotline." The netrunner retorted. V gave Jackie a "what's her deal" look and got a shrug in response.

"Whatever, just try not to make me more irritated than I already am. Had to deal with some bullshit at Militech because I had to fire my secretary, again." The man stated, rubbing his face.

"What happened this time?" T-Bug asked.

"Meredith didn't like that she was trying to seduce me, so she had me fire her." He responded. "Good news is, I already have a new one that will start work tomorrow. She was hand picked by Meredith and is being trained by her as we speak." He added.

"That was fast." Jackie remarked with a blink.

"She'd had this planned a while ago. And I actually really like this new one." V shrugged.

"Seems like to me that the wife is the one who wears the pants in this relationship." T-Bug chuckled.

"No, I'm still on top here, I'm just following the old saying. "Happy wife, happy life". And it's worked so far." He shrugged.

"Smart move, mano. Smart move." Jackie said with a nod. It was at this point that the elevator reached their floor and the two started walking down a hallway.

Meanwhile in the apartment, Meredith had just gotten back with Mako from Viktor Vector's Ripperdoc clinic. A trusted physician and friend of theirs.

Mako had gotten all the standard implants for a person as well as a few extra that were made to Meredith's specifications. One of which included an image inducer that was implanted in the crown of the shadow armor mask on her face and a new eye.

Now the blonde had her sitting on the couch while dressed in only a black silk robe and had a few data shards in her hand.

"These will be your training chips so that you can learn the traits you are to have in this relationship. And you are to take them without complaint, understand?" The Militech woman questioned her new subordinate and shared wife.

"Yes, mistress." Mako replied obediently. She then slotted the first shard into her neuroport and began learning her new role as her husband and master's secretary. After that she moved onto a history shard that taught her all the history she needed and how to work in a Corp society. Third was a Militech business shard. And then fourth was how to be the perfect obedient wife, and finally a shard titled: "Training Grade: XXX. A Joytoy's guide to having sex and being the perfect sex toy."

Off to the side, Meredith could tell that the voluptuous shark woman was taking every lesson to heart. She was pleased by this, and would very soon have her own pet shark.

'Oh, today is a good day.' She thought with a happy sigh.

Meanwhile with V and Jackie. The Corpo had just taken out a guy and shoved him in a cooler, before he and Jackie took down two more and the former Arasaka agent short circuited the rest.

Now they were faced with the last guy, a big bruiser who looked like trouble. V then got up as he held his arm out and crosshairs appeared on his optics, as a missile came out of his arm.

"Hasta la vista, baby." He whispered as he pulled his index finger back and then the missile shot off until it made impact with the guy. The result was his body being blown to pieces.

"Damn. Guess your position in Militech has its perks, huh?" The bruiser remarked with a whistle.

"Yep." The man nodded as they kept looking, he then looked around and entered a bathroom, to find their target naked and in a tub of ice with a corpse. "Jesus fucking Christ." He gasped.

"What's going on?" T-Bug asked since she couldn't see what was going on.

"Sons of bitches left her in a tub of ice!" Jackie growled, clutching his pistol angrily.

"V, can you see if anything is blocking her biomon?" T-Bug asked.

"Hang on." He said as he got her out of the ice and jacked in. "Data shard is shoving a blocker into her system. Removing it now." He continued as he pulled the shard. Then her biomon started sending out a distress signal. "Okay, Trauma Team's on its way!" He reported.

"Good. This woman needs a lot of treatment." The Street Kid nodded. However it was at this moment that Sandra started flatlining.

"Shit! She's flatlining!" V snapped as he set her down. "Jackie, Airhypo!" He yelled.

"Catch Mano!" The man yelled as he tossed the device to him. Stabbing it into Sandra's chest, the medicine slowly started to stabilize her. "Phew, that was close!" He sighed as V picked her up and carried her outside.

It was at this time that Trauma arrived and got out a gurney. "Place the patient here." The first guy said.

"Better get moving, she almost flatlined back there." The Corpo states before handing them a card. "When you bring her in, ask for this doctor. He should be able to help her recover." He added as the man not tending to Sandra took and examined the card.

"Dr. Davies, Cybersubconcious rehabilitation PHD. Hmm, will do." The man nodded as their target was loaded into the AV. V sighed as he cracked his back.

"Fuck, that was rough." Jackie groaned.

"Yeah. Nearly losing a target like that can make you feel taxed." V sighed. He knew what he was talking about since he had dealt with plenty of those during his tenure in Arasaka.

"Come on. Let's go." Jackie beckoned as he made his way out.

"Well, since the life or death bullshit is over, I'll just log off." T-Bug said before hanging up and disconnecting from the net.

"Hey ese, mind if I borrow one of your wheels? I got this thing with Misty and I need a ride." The bruiser said.

"I won't leave you hangin'. Don't get used to it, though. Which one do you want me to loan you?" V replied before asking his own question.

"The Aerondight, if you're willing." Jackie replied as they got in the elevator.

"Trying to make Misty feel special? Alright. Sure." The ex-Arasaka man nodded with a smirk. As they got into the truck, they called Wakako Okada, their Jig Jig Street fixer as they drove along.

"Watson has been closed down. Best move fast." The woman told them.

"Thanks for the heads up." V nodded as they continued on their way. He then hung up and focused on the road before a van drove in front of them.

"The hell? What are these idiots pulling?" Jackie wondered.

"Jacking into the turret." The Corpo said as he activated his roof turret as bullet shields rose onto the truck. He then quickly took aim and started firing as soon as the scavs opened the back doors and started gunning them.

"You picked the wrong target, motherfuckers!" Jackie yelled at them as V shot them up. The van then pulled away to get a second wind before coming back, a side door opening this time where a ginger started firing at them. "V, take out the driver!" The bruiser called out.

Deciding to do something a little different, he flipped a switch on the dash. "I'll do you one better!" He exclaimed as a sheering mace popped out on the rim of the driver side front wheel and sliced the van's front right wheel to pieces. This caused the car to swerve out of control and slam into an abandoned store with an explosion.

"Now that's good shit!" Jackie laughed as V disconnected from the turret.

"Yeah it is!" The Corpo exclaimed with a grin on his face. The two then booked it into a low tunnel that only Corpos could access and dodged the police blockade.

"So, what's the plan for when you get home? Wanna grab something to eat before we both head home?" The bruiser asked.

"Got a place in mind?" V asked as they exited the tunnel.

"Yeah, actually. Heard that All Foods just came out with a fresh new fried chicken sandwich with some really high quality ingredients. Like some really good bread and butter pickles." He suggested.

"Sounds tasty. Let's swing by and pick up four of them." V smiled.

"One for your wife-to-be and the other for your new secretary?" Jackie asked with a knowing look.

"Yep." The Corpo man nodded. "I'll be sure to introduce you to her as soon as I can." He added.

"You do that." The bruiser nodded as they continued to drive.

(Elsewhere)

Meanwhile, with Meredith and Mako, the Shark woman finally finished the last data shard, and was now fully trained to her new Master and Mistress's specifications.

"Now Mako, what's the first thing you'll do when V comes back?" The Militech woman questioned.

"Be his loving pet and cater to his every need." The mutant woman replied with a look of desire on her face.

"Good girl." The blond Corpo smiled as she patted and rubbed her new pet shark wife on the head, causing her to lean into the affectionate touch like a puppy would while also purring like a cat at the same time. Her tail wagged as she felt nothing but love and bliss.

*Clink*

Meredith smiled as she attached a collar to Mako's neck, with a license tag that had her name on it and was embedded with a tracking chip and a light shock function for any needed 'discipline'.

"Now all we have to do is wait." She mused as she sat on the couch with Mako resting her head in her mistress' lap.

They didn't need to wait long since ten minutes later, V walked through the front door with food in his hands.

"I'm back, ladies! And I got dinner!" He called. The two were quick to run and hug him.

"Welcome back, darling." Meredith smiled as she kissed his cheek. She also noticed that he was dressed in the clothes he usually wore while out doing his mercenary work.

It was a pair of black baggy cargo pants, combat boots of a similar color, a gray T-shirt with a yellow moon with a face that had a rocket crashing into the eye, and a replica of Johnny Silverhand's Samurai jacket. On his waist was a holster with his Archangel revolver in it and a sheath that had his family heirloom knife: a cane/Bowie knife that had a curved wood handle and a pyramid with the image of a shark fin on it.

Mako, meanwhile, kissed her master on the lips, moaning as she slipped her tongue into his mouth and he did the same with his tongue. After a minute of French kissing each other, they separated for air and looked into each other's eyes.

"Mmmm… master…" Mako purred as she leaned into him. V smiled as he hugged his shark woman close to him.

"Out doing mercenary work again, dear?" Meredith questioned as her husband embraced and kissed the neck of their shark lover.

"Yeah. Had to rescue a whistleblower from Arasaka." The counterintelligence director nodded.

"Oh good. We've been meaning to stick it to those dirty bastards, haven't we?" The woman asked the corporate mercenary.

"Indeed we have." V nodded. "Now come on. Let's eat these sandwiches before they get cold." He beckoned as he walked over to the table.

As the food was passed around, V took notice of how prim and proper that Mako seemed after Meredith's training. She seemed just as docile, seductive, sweet and obedient as he figured she'd be. Maybe even more so. It made him want her even more.

After everyone finished eating, V looked at Mako. He wondered if now would be a good time to make her his, or if he should wait and not rush it. Either way, he wouldn't stop her from sleeping in the same bed as him and Meredith.

She deserved to be loved.

With this in mind, he surprised her by picking her up and carrying her to bed. Mako's face was completely purple as she looked at her master with wide eyes.

"So Mako, would you like your master to make love to you? Make you mine?" He questioned as he laid her on the bed. Meredith slowly started to strip herself of her clothes as well. Mako thought for a moment. After all she'd gone through… she wanted to finally experience love in its entirety.

But tonight… She was too tired. After having gone through training all day after getting her implants and then filling her belly with food, she just felt tired, and needed sleep.

"Not tonight Master. I'm tired." She yawned.

"That's fair." V nodded as he stripped himself and laid next to her with an equally nude Meredith. "You're still sleeping with us, though. You deserve this." He added, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"No argument here, honey." The blondie nodded as she kissed her husband and lover on the lips before hugging Mako into her chest while V hugged her other side. "There. Much better." She smiled.

Slowly, all three of them fell asleep with smiles on their faces.

ThermalsniperN7: Aw. What a nice ending to this chapter. Mako looks so loved right now.

Dragon Emperor0: Probably best that they didn't have sex just then. They probably would have passed out after the first round or two.

ThermalsniperN7: Yeah. Sex in this state won't really go well. Cuddling is still fine, though.

Dragon Emperor0: And since Mako starts her job as a secretary next chapter, V will probably have her first time be in his office.

ThermalsniperN7: Sounds about right. I can see her taking it on his desk with her tail over his shoulders. Thoughts?

Dragon Emperor0: Or while being bent over on his desk, on the floor doggy style, in his chair cowgirl style, or even giving him blow jobs or tit fucks under his desk while he's talking to other people in Militech.

ThermalsniperN7: So many options, all of them being hot… Anyway, see you guys next time!
