Hey guys, whats up?
I think this is the second to last chapter of this story. The journey was fun and I´m glad you were sticking with it this long, but I also think it´s high time to bring it to a conclusion and move on.
I´m still curious what you guys think and gladly listen to your feedback!
Big thanks to RedLiteAlexi for his little contribution to this chapter!
Beastars – Into the spotlight 2.0
Chapter 14 – What happens in Tokyo
POV Louis
I had just booted up my laptop when Cosmo came tapping into my office slowly. She still looked rather sleepy, so it seemed to be important as it made her leave her bed at this hour.
"I just got a call from a friend. It´s Whiskey, she said she took in two kids from the street who got lost. A fox and a brown Labrador girl. She asked if you could help them."
"Oh?" I asked. That indeed was interesting. That probably solved my entire case all at once even.
"Their Names Julian and Bailey by any chance?"
She nodded. "She also said they got mugged on the street by a gang of foxes. She wanted to know if you´ve heard of them before."
This just kept getting more interesting, she apparently had even more info for me.
"They got their phones and their wallets stolen. They´re tourists in Tokyo, so they don't know where to go and they can´t find the location of their friend´s home on their own."
"Can you get her back on the phone for me, please?" I asked her with a content little smirk, "I need to talk to her myself."
"Sure" she said, already searching her contacts.
Cosmo handed me her phone and put it on speaker. I waited for her friend to pick up, and when she did we communicated just what the okapi had told me already. I instructed her what to tell the kids quickly and thanked her for calling earlier, then I handed the phone back to its owner.
"Thanks for getting out of bed for this" I told her with a genuinely happy smirk, "Can I pay you back with a nice dinner sometime maybe?"
"Once again I´m doing your whole job for you, aren't I?" she asked with an ironic little grin.
"This indeed saved me a lot of time" I affirmed with a little smile.
"Keep me updated" she said with a little yawn, turning around and heading out of the room again. She teasingly stroked the side of my face with her tail as she went, a moment later she was out of eyesight already and I could only hear her closing the door to the other room.
„Interesting development" I told Legoshi on the phone, "I know where they are. But there is a new problem: They got mugged by a gang of foxes and neither have their wallets, nor their phones anymore. That´s probably the reason they´re not answering any of your messages."
There was a short moment of silence on the line. I believed I heard a sigh of relief but also one of slight displeasure about the bad news.
"Okay. Where are they now?"
"You familiar with an actress named Whiskey Golden?" I asked with a slight chuckle.
"No…" he said in slight confusion, "Doesn´t ring a bell. Almost sounds like a porn actress."
"That´s because she is a porn actress" I chuckled, "Anyway, I´ll send you her address, please go pick them up yourselves. I´ll try to find out more about that gang who mugged them. I know someone who might be able to help us."
"Alright, thanks Louis!" he told me, "Good work!"
"We´ll talk later" I told him for now, "Take care."
I put my phone on the table next to me, then I got off my office chair and went towards my equipment and special clothing drawer. I had an idea on how to get to that gang that mugged them, but I probably had to get a little inventive.
POV Bailey
"So my friend just called, I have some good news for you…" Whiskey began upon coming back into her kitchen, "…your friends Lucy and O…o…"
"Ookami?"
"Yes, that´s it!" she affirmed with a nod, "…they´re on their way here to pick you up right now."
"Really?"
"Yeah. The PI I told you about, he knows a lot of people here in the city. He told me he talked to someone called Legoshi already, says he knows who you are."
We both just nodded to that in great relief. It made me smile a little bit that she actually didn´t know who Legoshi was. Maybe she did know but didn´t believe that it could really be that Legoshi.
"You guys are really lucky he was still awake. He made a few more calls, he told me to instruct you to wait here. He also told me he´s looking into who that gang of foxes are."
She now took a really deep look at Julian. "He also said to stay put and don't try anything stupid on your own."
He just nodded understandingly, it appeared he had enough trouble for tonight as well.
"How long will it take for them to get here?" Julian now wanted to know.
She just shrugged her shoulders about that question, I guessed it would at least be another half hour or something like that.
"I really don't want to be a burden" he now said, "But do you think I could take a quick shower while we wait? The fur on my back feels really sticky and itchy."
"I´ll get you a towel" she said with a little nod.
She went on her way and I was alone with Julian for another moment.
"You think Legoshi is gonna be mad about this?" he asked me lowly.
"I…I don't know about Legoshi…" she said, "But we should apologize to Lucy and her dad in any case. It was really stupid what we did."
He just nodded slowly, but then he also smiled at me a little bit. "I´m still rather here with you in this mess than at home alone."
I found that statement of him was very cute and I could even force a little smile right now. We heard Whiskey coming back into the hallway now, it appeared she had found a fresh towel for him.
He gave me a quick kiss on the cheek, then he got off his seat when she joined us in the kitchen once again.
"Thanks" he told her as she handed the towel over, "Thanks for being so kind to us."
"Believe it or not, I once was young as well" she said with a chuckle, "By the way you have to wait a little while before the water gets warm."
"Okay" he said as he left the kitchen, "Thanks!"
We watched him walk out of the kitchen on his way to the bathroom, then Whiskey took a seat at the table besides me.
She took another quick sip out of the cup of coffee she had made herself earlier, then she smiled at me again.
"You alright girly?" she chuckled.
"Y-yeah…" I said, "I mean…I´m still really scared, but…"
"You just got mugged in a Tokyo alleyway" she said, "I think it´s perfectly normal to be scared."
"I´m very sorry to be such a burden right now. …we, we´ve really done a few really stupid things tonight."
"Stupid things happen."
"Yeah, but we should have realized it by far sooner. We´re only in Tokyo because my parents are getting divorced and I couldn't stand being at home right now. Julian followed me just out of kindness, it still feels like I dragged him into something he doesn't want."
This just made her smile a little bit. "I wouldn´t believe that for a moment. From how I see it he really enjoys spending time with you, even here in this situation."
I looked at the table for another moment, then I raised my head a little and gave her a little smile for her kind words. She probably had a point here.
"I´m very sorry we ruined your night like that" I told her once again.
She had decided to postpone her film-shoot to another day, so she had sent the film-crew and whoever else was engaged in this home after she took us in.
"Honestly" she said with a warm little smile, "I wasn´t really in the mood tonight anyway."
"C-can I ask?" I said lowly, "How does it feel to be famous for…you know…that?"
She now smiled in amusement again, it seemed like she had been expecting that question for a little while already.
"It´s a job like anything else. It´s not like I´m just lying there and moan a little bit. But it´s also not like I totally hate what I´m doing either."
"But…like…" I stuttered, still in slight puzzlement, "How do you even get into this kind of business?"
"You gotta know the right people, you gotta have confidence, you gotta have the body and you gotta have to own it" she listed, still being rather amused by my curiosity, "But girly, you´re far too cute and pure to end up doing something like me. You need to do something greater with your life!"
"N-no!" I said, shaking my head, "I didn´t ask because I-"
"I know" she said with a big warm smile, "I know Bailey. I´m just messing with you. Don't actually listen to me for life-advice, okay?"
She had a genuine smile on her face now, I could tell that there was nothing malicious about what she said.
Whiskey was just another individual like me or Julian, she wasn't anything better or worse than us, and she also didn't expect me to understand why she lived her life that way. Live and let live, it was really nothing more than that.
The golden furred Labrador lady was genuinely nice to us ever since she took us in, she helped us to the best of her abilities and cancelled her entire night for us.
I looked into her eyes once again, not being able to hide a little smile of my own.
"So?" she asked with a little chuckle, "That stud of yours…"
"W-what about him?"
"Is he nice to you?"
"He´s very sweet" I told her, "He´s never treated me badly, he´s always been there for me."
"I guess you know how much that´s worth on its own?"
"I love him very much" I said lowly, "I just hope he gets a little more careful. He´s always getting himself into fights to protect me, but it almost feels like he´s doing it on purpose sometimes. He was threatened with a knife earlier!"
"Men just want to be heroes sometimes" she said with a shrug of her shoulders, "He´ll grow up as well eventually."
I just shook my shoulders and nodded a little. I still was in somewhat of a cheerful mood right now, even though that topic about Julian still worried me. But I guess I was just really glad Lucy and Ookami were coming to get us and that we at least would be safe and sound for tonight, no matter if we would ever see our phones and wallets again or not.
He still had the water running as it seemed, so I tried to stay relaxed and took another sip of lemonade from the glass Whiskey had given me.
"So…did you really send that film-crew home because of us?" I asked again carefully, "We´re you actually about to…"
"Just like I said honey" she chuckled, "It´s just a job like anyone else."
"But…do you really…like…with different men…"
"Yes" she affirmed in amusement, "It´s just how you imagine it. But those guys are just actors like me, we´re doing this professionally, not only because we like having sex."
I still couldn't quite believe how casually she just talked about this, but I also was kinda fascinated by it.
"So you do actually have fun doing this?" I kept on asking, somehow not being able to stop myself.
"I do knowing the paychecks I receive later" she chuckled ironically, "But yeah, I also mostly really enjoy the physical act."
I nodded slowly, still trying to think of anything more interesting to start a conversation while we waited.
"So…" I began, clutching my own hands a little bit in slight nervousness, "…what do the people enjoy most about your…work?"
"Haha you sure you´re comfortable with that talk, girly?" she asked with a giggle.
I already had thought about this earlier, but somehow, I wasn´t even that scared of it right now. At least I was talking about this with someone who really had experience.
"Y-yeah…" I said with a little nod, "I kinda wanna try some different stuff with him as well…but, I´m also kinda scared."
She now nodded with an understanding, almost motherly little smile. I thought this was kind of a cool opportunity, so I was actually glad she was down to talk.
"So first of all" she began with a grin, "It´s way more than just lube and patience…"
POV Louis
"This is stupid" I muttered to myself, taking another cautious look at my surroundings, "These kids lost their phones and their wallets, that´s nothing that can´t be replaced."
I was standing around just a few hundred yards from the location Julian and Bailey had been mugged at just about two hours ago, fantasizing about being in my bed right now, snuggling my head into some nice and soft okapi boobs. But I was confident this was the only way to get the results I wanted.
I wanted Legoshi to know that he could count on me, I wanted to be able to say I had tried everything possible.
I had put myself into one of my better suits, wore some fake glasses and adjusted my posture so people would think I was some sort of drunk middle-class businessman who has gotten lost on his way home.
I´ve had heard about rumors of people getting mugged in these streets before. Gangs of three to five people are strolling around here, searching for anyone who looks like an easy target. Most people don't ever see their wallets again usually.
Most of them don't even want them back primarily because of the cash, its more about their legal documents and credit cards than anything else. I guessed those thugs are burning the things whole after taking out the money, not leaving behind any trace.
I had tried calling their phone numbers and tracking them as well, but there was no response from any of the devices. The thieves were smart enough to turn them off after all, so there was just one tactic left for me that might work.
I was a little surprised, but I didn´t actually have to wait that long until something happened. I was near a sparsely lit alleyway when I suddenly noticed the arrival of a group of people who came walking towards me, at first rather casually but then with a clear purpose in their step indeed. It was a group of four foxes, just like those kids had been describing it.
"Good evening sir" one of them greeted me, already sounding rather greedy than friendly, "You seem a little lost if I´m allowed to say."
"Yes!" I began with my acting, making sure it actually sounded like a drunk person, "Might one of you gentlemen be so kind and…point out for me the way to the next train station please?"
In that moment I already heard the sound of a spring knife being opened.
"We´re going to show you the way straight to hell you rich asshole!"
"W-what?" I asked, trying to sound fearful while actually being a little frightened of that blade, "…what do you want of me?!"
They had completely surrounded me in the meanwhile, the knife I heard being held very close to my throat right now.
"Give us your phone and your wallet and your drunk ass will get home safe tonight" the fox with the dagger growled lowly, "I´m not asking again."
"Y-yes! D-don't hurt me, okay? Here!"
I reached out for the wallet in my left pocket and handed it to them.
"Your phone too!" one of them barked at me, "It´s not like you can´t afford a new one."
I pulled out the phone in my right pocket slowly. "Can I at least keep my SIM-card?" I asked, trying to make it as believable as possible "I have a lot of important contacts on there and-"
"I don't care about your dumb rich business assholes" one of them told me with a dirty cackle, shoving me in the stomach with his elbow slightly.
With shaking hands I handed them the phone as well, the moment it left my grip the knife was removed from my throat and they quickly stepped back from my person.
"Wasn´t so hard now, was it?" the one with the knife asked me while flipping it shut with one single motion.
I just nodded slowly, still acting very fearful even though they´ve walked right into my trap.
A moment later the whole thing was over already. They moved off into the direction they were going earlier, I remained where I was standing.
Having made sure they were out of earshot and out of sight as well, I pulled my real phone from the pocket on the inside of my vest and opened my contacts.
First I called my joker for when it came to anything that involved violence. I had texted her earlier already, she told me she would be awake for another few hours anyway.
"Hey" she greeted me firmly but also with that sympathetic chuckle in her voice.
"They bought the bait" I told her, "I´ll send you the link for the GPS tracker. Also: I´m gonna tell Legoshi and his people, but I´ll tell them to wait until you give me green light."
"How many were there did you say again?" she wondered.
"I was mugged by four right now. The kid had been in a fist fight with them earlier before one of them pulled a knife on him, one of them is limping a little bit I just noticed."
"You think there might be more?"
"Couldn't tell you" I said, "But I guess you´ve dealt with worse situations?"
"You know I´m not as young as I used to be anymore?" she asked with a slight chuckle, "But I guess Legoshi still knows some moves as well. These kids will probably poop their pants anyway when they see John Wick walking up to them."
"Yeah, yeah" I sighed, "Let´s try not to get any more media attention to this than necessary. None if possible."
"I was just kidding" she chuckled, "Send me the location and I´ll be there as soon as I can."
"Thanks" I told her before hanging up, "See you there."
I went back to the chats and sent the link towards her and towards Legoshi as well, now they both could follow the exact locations of my fake wallet and probably find the other mugged items there as well.
Then I called Legoshi.
"Hey Louis" he greeted me, "Our train just arrived at the central station."
"Good" I said, "I have some news. I just tracked down the gang that mugged the kids, they have a GPS tracker on them right now, I just sent you the link that lets you track their location."
"Did you get the police involved?" he asked me, and I of course knew why he was asking about that.
"No. I guess you rather want this to be handled without any media attention?"
"I´d very much prefer that" he affirmed my exact suspicions.
"I thought so. Get yourself a rental car and come to the location on your phone. I´ll arrange a meetup there with the others."
"Thanks Louis!" he said contentedly, "Good work!"
"See you in a bit."
I ended that phone call as well, the street around me was still quiet. I took another quick look at the map, the tracker seemed to have arrived at a location just two blocks down the road. A quick look on zoogle earth revealed that it was some sort of abandoned workshop with a dirty, unorganized backyard. It could even be described as a junkyard from above, there were old shipping containers, wrecks of old cars and a whole lot of other scrap metals lying around. It looked like the perfect hideout for a gang of thugs like them.
"Oh you poor little bastards" I thought to myself with a little smirk, "You have no idea what´s coming your way."
POV Leon
"Wait?" I asked my dad while we were walking through the car park, "We have the address of the guys who mugged Bailey and Julian?"
"That's what Louis just told me" he affirmed, pushing the button on the keys to our rental car once again.
Finally, one of the vehicles flashed its indicator-lights a couple of times, we walked towards it as quick as our luggage allowed us to.
"But…aren't we gonna call the cops to get the stuff back?" I panted as he opened the trunk and tossed his suitcase into it, "These guys might be armed and dangerous!"
"I don't want all that media attention" he told me as I lifted my stuff into the trunk as well, "Also: It has it´s perks to be a famous celebrity sometimes."
"What, you think they´re gonna give you back the stuff because you´re famous?"
"No" he said while shaking his head, "They either do it because of respect or they´ll try to hold me hostage. If we can´t overpower them that is."
"You want to risk any of that?"
"We´re talking about a gang of four foxes" he said while raising an eyebrow, "Which almost failed to overpower Julian who was on his own. I think we´ll be alright."
"There might be more. How can you know?"
"Let´s just take a look at it first" he said while getting onto the driver´s seat, "We´ll meet the others there as well."
I took a short look at my phone after getting in the car, it was almost half to three in the morning in the meanwhile. I was feeling a little tired, but knowing I would see Lucy again soon kept me well awake.
"I just sent you the address as well" Legoshi told me before starting the engine, "Can you open maps and tell me where to go?"
"Sure" I affirmed, opening it on my phone, "It´s not too far actually, only about 15 minutes."
"Let´s go" he said with a confident smirk, "No time to waste!"
POV Ookami
A little rock had fallen off my shoulders when we rang at the address Legoshi had sent me. They opened the door for us and Bailey and Julian were still there.
The two of them running off on us again was the last thing I needed for tonight. Hadn´t it been for Lucy and all the other stuff that was going on, I would be properly fed up with them right now. But for now, I was just glad we found them.
I couldn´t quite hide a little smirk when I realized that I was actually standing in front of famous porn actress Whiskey Golden when she opened the door for us, but there wasn't too much of a conversation to begin with really. It was pretty late already and I just wanted us to get home as quickly and as safely as possible.
We all thanked her kindly for her help, she just waved it off with a friendly smile and soon later the four of us had made our way back down the staircase.
There was something unspoken between all of us of course, but as none of us really felt like working all that over right now, there really was just one topic to talk about:
"Come on" I waved them to follow me as I followed the blue arrow on zoogle maps, "Legoshi just sent me the location of the place where we might get your phones and wallets back."
"…what?" Julian asked in great confusion, "How did he…?"
"I´m just telling you what he told me" I explained with a shrug of my shoulders.
I really had a lot of questions about this as well right now, but as there was only one way to get answers anyway, I just went with it for now.
"Leon just told me that they arrived in Tokyo a few minutes ago" Lucy told them, "They just picked up their rental car."
Hearing that just left me shaking my head once again in slight disbelief. This night has been so long and stressful already and it still seemed like it would become even more of an adventure.
I just hoped all that effort from Legoshi would be worth it in the end. I could understand him well if he was mad about it, I would be too in his shoes.
This forenoon, when Lucy and I were cutting vegetables for our lunch we cooked, and she told me about her friends from school coming over, this was not what I had been expecting our day to look at. Not at all.
POV Julian
The address Ookami followed on his phone turned out to only be a few hundred yards away from Whiskey´s flat. It looked like some sort of abandoned scrapyard or former workshop from the outside, there was a fence around the whole area. It wasn't really locked though, and it wasn´t totally abandoned either. One part of the place was sparsely lit from the screen of a TV or something like that, there were also voices to be heard when I listened a little closer.
"This is the place" the maned wolf told us, taking a short look around, apparently feeling a little stomped about this as well.
"What, are we just supposed to walk in there and tell them to give us our stuff back?" I asked in great puzzlement.
"You, kid" and unknown voice suddenly told me, "Are not going to make this night any longer than it needs to be, alright?"
From the shadows behind us suddenly emerged a deer that apparently none of us had noticed there before.
We turned towards him, he took a few quiet steps towards us. "Legoshi will be here any minute now, you guys can really call yourself lucky you have him in your corner of support."
"…are you that PI he told us about?" Ookami asked in slight puzzlement.
The deer nodded slowly, then he pointed towards that scrapyard with his head.
"If they´re the same four foxes who mugged you, you´ll probably get your stuff back tonight."
"Really?" Bailey asked in great excitement, "That would be so cool!"
"How can you know its them?" I asked him, still in slight doubt in that statement.
"I waited for them to mug me as well" he said plainly, "Had a fake wallet and a cheap second phone on me, they carried the GPS chip right here to this scrapyard."
"Damn, okay" I said, being really impressed about that actually. I hadn´t even considered that to be a possibility. "…but how do we get them to give it back? Do we call the cops on them?"
"Legoshi doesn´t want this to gain any media attention" he said while shaking his head, "Also: He´s literally John Wick himself. Those little crooks probably shit their pants the moment they see him coming."
It fascinated me a little bit that I had really forgotten about that, but he was right. Legoshi was on his way here, and there was no doubt that he knew how to fight. If I could rough them up like that already, he would just make minced meat out of them.
A motorcycle came driving down the street now, slowing down as it approached our location and stopping by the side of the road next to us. On it was a vixen with completely white fur. She got off of her ride and put her helmet onto the seat casually. She didn´t wear any other motorcycle gear though, just some matt black leather pants and a dark blue shirt. I guessed she was something around forty years old, but she looked physically quite well in shape for her age.
"Good evening, everybody" she said with a little yawn when she arrived us, I immediately found her quite charming and sympathetic. She had something energetic and powerful about her.
"Glad you could make it" the deer guy told her now, taking a step into her direction.
"Oh you know my sleep rhythm" she chuckled, "Not a problem!"
"So…" the PI said, pointing at me and Bailey now, "These two got their stuff stolen. One of them pulled a knife is what I´ve heard."
I nodded slowly. The newly arrived vixen nodded as well, turning towards me with a little smirk.
"Louis told me one of them was limping when he met them."
"Louis?"
Her head just pointed at the deer with a smile.
"Oh, yeah" I affirmed, "I tried to defend us, I knocked two of them down even."
I looked at the ground in slight shame, "But then they overpowered me and one held a knife to my throat."
"It was really scary!" Bailey said lowly, "I´m glad he didn´t get hurt!"
The vixen nodded again with a little smile, then she put one of her hands on my shoulder, "Them pulling a knife just shows how scared they were of you."
She gave me an encouraging smirk. "Four against one is not a fair fight, but it barely ever is a fair fight no matter what you get into."
I didn´t quite understand why she was telling me all that right now, but somehow it felt like she was talking from experience.
"Yeah…" I said, "It just sucks that I barely ever get into a fair fight."
"We´re gonna change that now" she said with an encouraging smirk.
"Why do you always get into fights in the first place?" Bailey now asked me lowly.
"They were gonna steal our things" I told her, trying to keep my calm, "And they have!"
"Yeah…but…but…that´s no reason to risk your life!"
"I was not risking my life" I tried to calm her down as well, "It´s not like they were pointing a gun at me or something…"
"Yeah, but they had a knife and-"
We all turned our heads now as another vehicle suddenly came driving down this dark and otherwise empty road. It pulled up right next to us as well, the engine was being shut down and when the doors opened, some more familiar faces revealed themselves to us.
"So there is a party we really didn´t want to miss, isn´t there?" Legoshi said with a tired chuckle while coming towards us.
Leon straight up ignored everyone else for a moment and went towards Lucy, hugging and kissing her like he hasn´t seen her in over a year.
It made us chuckle for a short moment, but then all the attention was on Legoshi once again.
"I-I" I stuttered, not being able to stop myself, "I´m really sorry about all this! I didn't want you having to come to Tokyo for-"
He just waved it off with a little shake of his head, it seemed like he didn´t want to discuss that right here and now.
"You boys ready to go or what?" the white furred vixen now asked us with a sympathetic and encouraging little chuckle, apparently not wanting to waste a single further minute.
Legoshi froze up for a short moment when she said that, then he suddenly had a little bit of a smile on his face. It appeared he was really happy to see her, his tail had started shaking a little bit.
"Are we fighting a whole army now?" he then asked her ironically, "Bringing you is not fair for any bad guy. Especially not some petty thieves."
"Louis called me and told me about the situation" she said with a smile and a shrug of her shoulders, "Thought it could be fun."
"…fun?" Lucy asked in slight puzzlement, "Didn't you say those guys are armed and dangerous?"
"They won´t even see us coming" Legoshi waved it off with little concern, the white vixen didn´t seem too scared of it either. She too was about to walk towards that gate already, Legoshi waved me to follow them. It almost looked like they were excited for this.
"You´ll like this" he told me with a little wink, "Come on, follow us!"
Still not quite understanding what made them so confident, I hesitantly followed them towards the gate.
"Leon" his dad told him, "You might be interested in this as well…come on!"
He just shrugged his shoulders a little bit to that request, it looked like he really rather wanted to stay with Lucy right now. But Legoshi was just as stubborn about this as he had been yesterday already.
I already had a good feeling about this. This must be good when Legoshi was this excited about it.
Leon now finally joined us by the gate as well, the white furred vixen had already opened one of the sections a little bit, doing it as quietly as possible in order not to raise any suspicions.
"We´ll make sure no one sneaks up from behind you" Louis told Legoshi swiftly while joining us by the gate for a moment, the wolf just nodded contentedly.
We were walking a few steps behind her as she casually wandered around the pile of old cars that separated us from the gang and the source of lights that lit the space behind it. There was some sort of abandoned hut on the other side of the yard and behind the cars it appeared to be two shipping containers stacked on top of one another.
"You guys remember the vixen I told you about yesterday?" Legoshi asked us under his breath and with a short wink.
I wasn't sure if she heard it or not, but she just kept on walking closer and closer towards them, not even slowing down in her step one little bit.
"Wait…" I said slowly, "She´s Skye?"
He just nodded with a little smile, just as she was noticed by the guys who mugged me earlier. I immediately recognized them, it felt so unreal that we were actually walking up to their hideout right now.
"Hey boys!" Skye greeted them loudly, still sounding rather sympathetic than aggressive, "Mind if I interrupt the party for a moment?"
They all immediately turned towards her now, giving no more attention to the movie they were watching.
"Who are you?!" one of them asked in great surprise as they all looked at her, at first he didn´t even seem too displeased about seeing a pretty vixen, but then the suspicions seemed to kick in pretty quickly.
They hadn´t noticed us yet I believed, but now they were coming closer towards her nevertheless. One of the others put his beer down onto the plastic table he was sitting at, the others went into some sort of ready to defend themselves pose as well.
"Who I am is not all that important" she told them, now rather plainly, "Two friends of mine got their wallets and phones stolen from you earlier, and I´m here to nicely ask you to give them back."
"Do you have any evidence it was us, missy?" he asked back harshly, now approaching her more purposefully. It almost looked like he was about to push her away or tried to scare her, but she just raised one of her eyebrows slightly.
"The deer you robbed later tonight is actually a PI, and he put a GPS tracker into his fake wallet. So yeah, I do have evidence you have them" she told him dryly as he approached her.
"What the fuck?" he now asked in slight fear and anger.
She just chuckled with a warm, almost motherly smirk on her face, it really seemed to freak him out right now.
"I like how your gangster-attitude suddenly disappeared" she told him casually, still not showing any remote sign of fear after provoking him like that.
"Go back to where you came from grandma!" he growled aggressively, "Or we´re going to-"
In that moment she already hit him in the face with her fist like she had fired a shotgun at him. It came so fast and hard he had no time to react or do anything to even soften the blow.
He stumbled backwards a few steps, barely being able to stand anymore. She now did a really high leap into the air, executed a front flip and hit his head from above with one of her feet on her way back down.
The guy collapsed like a bag of wet cement and held his head in great pain and confusion.
"Whoa" I gasped in excitement, not being able to hide a dumb little grin at what I saw. This was just awesome.
"Come on now!" Skye now complained with an ironic chuckle, "I know I´m not twenty-five anymore…but I don´t look that old yet, do I?"
"Ahh fuck!" the fox guy groaned, "What the hell?"
"I have been asking nicely" Skye told them, still as calm as one can be, "The police is not involved yet, they don't have to be either."
"F-fuck you!" he groaned in great pain.
His mates now came closer towards her as well, I was scanning their hands for any weapons they had in them. One of them was holding his empty beer bottle like he wanted to use it as a weapon, the other ones only seemed to rely on their bare hands.
What I noticed though was that they were by far more than four right now. Counting the one Skye just had introduced to the floor with her awesome move, I counted at least seven people.
"Oh so you´re the tough guys, huh?" Skye asked them, still rather unimpressed, "Seven strong men against one grandma?"
"Fuck off alright?" one of them asked her, "I don't enjoy hitting a woman, but I´ll do it if you don't-"
"Guys, you hear this?" Skye asked them loudly, "This guy respects women!"
Just as he was about to approach her, she suddenly charged forwards once again with unbelievable speed. He tried to protect himself in time by just sending a punch in her direction, but she was flying high over his head while his punch hit nothing but air. She grabbed his head on her way down, executed another flip in mid-air, pulled him with her for half a turn and when her feet touched the ground again, she catapulted him away with such force he was sent flying right into the next fox behind him, swiping him off his feet as well. It was utter annihilation, they just kept lying there on the floor in great pain and confusion.
I was so utterly amazed by this woman, I just kept staring in pure speechlessness.
"In case you´ve ever wondered who John Wick is scared off…" Legoshi now chuckled in slight amusement.
We all now stopped and stared at him for a moment, including the guys from the criminal gang, and then it was actually Skye who interrupted that short moment of silence.
"What´s up, boys?" she now asked towards us with a little smirk, "You just gonna stand there and stare?"
The other gang members now started surrounding her from all sides, she now for the first time looked like she was actually preparing for a tough fight.
I was so excited about this, I already flexed my own muscles a little bit as well. I could feel the wounds on my back a little bit, but the adrenaline made me almost completely forget about it.
As they all were fixated on her right now anyway, I already took a few light-footed steps towards them, readying myself to take proper revenge for what they did to us earlier.
I didn´t care if Leon or Legoshi would join the fight as well, but I just wanted to be part of this. I needed to learn every move this woman could teach me.
I watched as Skye suddenly jumped upwards when she was approached by three guys from different directions, used one of their shoulders to propel herself away from them, executed a backflip in mid-air and then smoothly landed behind them.
I thought this was the perfect opportunity to attack them as well, so I just went for it without any more hesitation.
"Hey!" I yelled, quickly gaining their attention now.
I was already lunging towards him when he turned his head towards me, a moment later my fist hit his jaw with a very brutal impact.
The douchebag ended up crashing face first onto the floor just like the other two Skye had already taken down, their whole group looked really scared and confused about it in the meanwhile.
I didn't even waste any more time and went straight for the next guy I had in front of me. He took a swing, I dodged it and rammed my knee into his stomach a moment later, followed by a really hard punch to the face.
I was not to be stopped anymore. I didn't feel the wounds on my back, I didn´t feel tired, I just craved for revenge.
"Watch your back kiddo" I suddenly heard Skye´s voice behind me. I turned around and noticed that she had blocked off the other fox who had been trying to attack me from behind.
Two more came running towards us already, one of them had a broken bottle in his hand. I had just enough time to jump to the side so the guy with the bottle wouldn't hit me with his throw, but then I was down on the floor and had to get back up again first of all.
But it was alright in the end, that absolute ninja of a vixen had dodged their attacks with great ease as well and diverted their attention away from me with that once again.
POV Leon
At first it looked like Skye and Julian wouldn't even need our help getting all of them down, but then I noticed how some of them slowly but surely were getting back up from the floor again.
"Help them" Legoshi told me dryly, "Daddy won´t always be around."
I had hesitated for another moment, but then I noticed that one of them had pulled a knife once again. Neither Julian nor Skye had noticed him yet, pretty obviously being busy with the other guys right now.
I now took all my courage together and take a few quick steps towards him.
"Hey, look out!" I warned Julian, just as he was getting up and the other fox tried to attack him with his knife. They both looked towards me in that moment, I went for a powerful punch into the guy´s face and he dropped his knife in great shock and pain. So far so good.
Julian quickly reacted and punched the guy he´d already been fighting, not giving him a single chance to recover from it anymore. He didn´t stop lunging at him until he was down on the floor and not getting back up anymore. There was just one more left after that one anyway, and it pretty much looked like Skye had that covered anyway.
"Thanks" he told me with a nod, I felt really good to have acted in time and not just when it was too late already this time.
I nodded as well, then we both watched in great fascination what Skye did to that last remaining fox who wasn´t lying on the floor in defeat yet.
He obviously didn´t stand a chance against her, although he was quite a little bit taller than her.
None of his attacks, no matter what he tried, achieved anything against her. She dodged it with such ease it was really funny to watch. It was a combination of timing, precision and just pure force that made her look just so superior.
Eventually she became bored playing around with him, so she decided to start attacking him as well. She dodged his next swing as well, turned around her own axis and then used one of her legs to just swipe him off his feet and make him crash on the floor quite brutally.
She didn´t even need a second attack after that, just her looking down on him from above was enough to make him beg for mercy.
"Stop!" he yelled now, raising both hands in defeat, "I give up! Don't hurt me please!"
It almost sounded like he was crying right now, being utterly humiliated and devastated by a woman he would have laughed at earlier.
My dad was right about everything he told us yesterday. He hadn't made it up, if there was someone smaller than him who could push him into the pool, it would be her. There was no doubt about it.
Witnessing this explained a whole lot I didn´t understand earlier.
POV Julian
I came a step closer, then I realized it had been the guy who had threatened me with his knife earlier.
Skye noticed that I had something to say to him, so she took a step back and let me go ahead with a little wink.
"I came here to get my stuff back" I now told him dryly, "Don't feel so strong now, do you?"
He just growled at me a little bit, but there wasn´t really a clever answer he could give me to that in his situation.
"Where is it?" I wanted to know.
He took a look around him first of all, but all his mates were either lying on the floor in great fear or they weren't even conscious anymore.
"You don't really believe I tell you where we keep our stash, do you? Julian?"
I wasn't really all that impressed that he knew my name from reading it on my cards in my wallet earlier, I actually kinda liked that he would remember it.
Skye now casually leaned herself against one of the old cars that stood besides us and crossed her arms with a content smirk. The crook noticed that as well of course, but that didn't exactly boost his confidence either.
"I think you´re gonna tell us where it is" I told him with an amused chuckle about his gangster attitude, "Look behind you."
He actually did turn around for a second, and then there was an audible gulp of fear when he noticed that John Wick himself was standing behind him.
"What the fuck?" he now whispered lowly, obviously really frightened by the sight of a large wolf behind him.
"It´s past three in the morning" Legoshi yawned with a little chuckle, "I think we can wrap this up now, no?"
"The guy called me a grandma" Skye ironically brought it up once again, "I think I want to call the cops just for that!"
"I…I´m sorry! Okay?" he now told her, apparently having abandoned every last need to act tough in front of us.
"Tell us where it is and we´ll leave you alone to your sad lives" I told him plainly, "Otherwise we will call the cops."
"Oh wow" Skye chuckled in amusement, "You gonna be this harsh on the poor guy?"
"He threatened me with a knife earlier" I said, not feeling the least bit of remorse, "He threatened he would do something to my girlfriend."
I was pretty sure he was hoping I would have forgotten about that by now, but I hadn´t and I didn´t let him get away with it either. I just kept staring at him with a cold expression, raising one of my eyebrows slowly as he was getting more and more nervous.
"…there is a safe in the hut over there" he now sighed in defeat, "The key is in the ice compartment of the fridge."
I took another close look at him, it didn´t seem like he was lying about that. It seemed like he had finally understood where his place was.
"Can you make sure he doesn´t do anything stupid?" I asked the others.
They all nodded affirmingly, I went on my way to the place he pointed out. I was pretty sure there was nothing that could go wrong anymore now. We had won this fight and they wouldn't try to do anything stupid anymore.
POV Leon
We all watched as Julian approached the little hut in between this pile of old scrap and cars, but even though we´ve beaten all of them down and had them under our control, something somehow didn´t feel right to me.
Getting the location of their loot out of that last guy had been far too easy for my taste. I took another look at the last fox we had defeated, he had a somewhat content look on his face for some reason. Almost like he knew about something he wouldn´t tell us.
"Julian!" I told him, but just in that moment it was too late already.
There was a mechanic rattle and clicking as something ahead of him moved all over sudden, the blink of an eye later Julian had completely stopped moving as a gun was pointed at his head.
There was one more gang member as it seemed, and he had been hiding in there all this time just to now cowardly pull a gun on him.
A deep rage suddenly boiled up inside me. Nobody moved a muscle right now, neither Skye nor Legoshi nor anyone else. I could tell Julian was feeling that same rage right now. He was facing an unfair situation yet once again, it seemed like nothing was ever working out for him.
"How about all you dicks fuck off now and this little prick gets to live?" the fox with the gun asked loudly.
I now started growling angrily a little bit, I just couldn't help myself.
"Leon" my dad told me lowly under his breath, "Wallets and phones are replaceable. Julian´s life isn´t."
I didn´t want to listen to that right now. I´ve been in this situation before, and this time I didn´t want it to end like last time. I didn´t want to be accountable for not having done anything anymore.
I took another short look around me, I noticed that the guy who told us where the stuff was hidden was still right besides me. That was all I needed basically.
"Leon!" my dad now said again, afraid of me doing something really stupid right now.
"I´m gonna John Wick this bitch" I growled lowly, and before anyone could stop me I already had moved over towards the fox besides me and grabbed him by his neck.
"Ahh" he squealed as I grabbed him really tightly and lifted him into the air. He was trying to free himself, but I just gripped his neck even harder.
"Hey!" the guy with the gun yelled at me, "Wolf! Don't move muscle!"
I put my second hand against the foxes head like I was about to twist it, I could tell how frightened he became in that moment.
"I flick my hands to the left half a foot and I´ll snap his neck" I spoke back in a dark and intimidating way. I had no idea if it was actually true, but it appeared to be convincing enough to make him hesitate.
I was just waiting for him to lose focus on Julian for a moment. From his stance I could tell my dorm-mate was ready to attack as soon as he was out of the line of fire. Hopefully, my similarities to Legoshi and my scariness were enough for that to work.
"Is it really worth it for some stupid phones and wallets?" he asked me, trying to sound calm but actually being really nervous as well. His voice was higher pitched now and his hand holding the gun started shaking slightly.
I slowly stepped a few steps closer towards him, lifting his friend even higher into the air. My muscles felt stirred up and ready. The fox I was holding became kinda heavy in the meanwhile, but I would be able to keep it up just a little longer.
"I don't know" I asked back coldly, "Is it?"
"Don't take one more step you prick" he now yelled at me, switching his aim to me instead of Julian now.
"Hey!" Julian yelled at him suddenly, and the same moment he looked back at him he already received a punch to the face.
I quickly tossed the other guy aside and stormed towards Julian and the fox with the gun. He still had it in his paws, but he couldn't re-gain focus quickly enough after Julian´s first initial attack.
I went for a powerful punch as well now, hitting him right on the nose with quite a substantial impact, swiping him completely off his feet now.
He still held onto his gun tightly I noticed a moment later, but Julian kicked it right out of his hand with his feet now, not giving him a single chance of pulling anything stupid on us yet once again.
"Fuck you!" Julian spat at his face now, his voice and body-language inflicted with a complicated mix of emotions, "Sit your ass down you fucking low life!"
The guy with the gun was lying on the floor already, barely able to move anymore, but Julian gave him yet another strike to the face.
I now noticed that Skye had moved towards us as well in the meanwhile, picking up the gun from the floor, probably to prevent something like this from happening again. She quickly scanned the insides of the little hut now, pointing the gun in every direction quickly, but it finally seemed to be over now.
"You..." Julian now turned towards me, still panting heavily but with more clarity now, "You just saved my life!"
"I…guess I did…" I chuckled in great relieve, being really glad all this was over now, "Figured I still owe you that much."
Not knowing what else to do right now, he offered me a cheeky fist-bump. I was glad our teamwork had paid off just now, I gladly returned that little gesture.
"Damn that was so awesome!" he yelled enthusiastically. His hyped-up mood actually felt quite contagious.
"Hell yeah it was!" I agreed with him. Skye just smiled at us a little.
From the corner of my eye, I now noticed how the fox who told us where the loot was trying to get up from the floor and run away, but just before he could get anywhere, my dad grabbed him with one of his arms tightly and just lifted him off the ground by his neck like I did earlier.
It seemed like he´s had enough of the games as well in the meanwhile.
"You little prick ain´t going anywhere" he told him coldly, apparently not being in the best of moods right now, "I wasn´t gonna get the police involved, but you´re not pulling a gun on a teenager and getting away with it."
"You´re on our turf here man" the fox told him, "Your bad if you get kids involved."
"This is not your turf any longer. You´re going to prison."
"Who the fuck do you think you are, wolf?" he asked him now, it appeared he hadn´t even fully realized it earlier, "How do you think you can prove anything to the cops? It´s your word against ours."
Legoshi now turned him around and looked him right in the eyes.
"I´m John fucking Wick" he now told him lowly and very intimidating, "And I could just buy this whole dump and build a freaking charity foundation right here."
"Holy shit" the fox whispered lowly, finally realizing it was actually true.
"I´m actually impressed he hasn´t shit himself yet" I commented with a little chuckle. Skye and Julian chuckled about that comment a little bit, Legoshi still didn´t find it too funny.
"That was pretty reckless" he told us dryly, "Your lives are worth more than some phones and wallets."
"It´s not a real gun" the fox in his grip lowly told us now.
Skye now let the magazine release from the gun into her hands and examined it shortly.
"It is" she then dryly stated, "But nice try."
"I didn´t know it's a real one" the guy claimed now, it seemed pretty fishy yet once again.
"You shut up now" my dad told him coldly, carrying him over towards the little hut.
"You´ll return the loot right now. I won´t say it again. Or I´m gonna make you shit yourself."
POV Lucy
Their fight had taken quite a bit longer than I had anticipated. Bailey and I were too scared to go into that old scrapyard, and since Legoshi told us this wouldn´t be too big of a deal anyway, Ookami and that private investigator weren´t too bothered joining the action either. I wasn´t even sure they really were talking about wanting to start an actual fight earlier.
It took a couple of minutes and we heard some of their voices in the distance, but it was too far away to tell what was really going on.
Leon and Julian were the first ones to come back. Julian had Bailey´s phone and wallet with him and handed it over to her with a big proud grin on his face.
"Where have you left the others?" she wanted to know, still seemingly a little concerned.
"They´re tying them up for when the police arrives" Leon explained, "They´ve stolen by far more wallets and phones, my dad said it would only be fair if they found their ways back to the original owners."
"Tying them up with what?" the PI wanted to know from him, "And have they called the police already?"
"Skye found a drum of some old cable material" Leon said with a shrug, "And I think Legoshi is on the phone with them right now."
The deer now wordlessly went through the opening in the fence and went towards them. As I was a little bit curious as well now, I followed him and took a look at the scene myself. I couldn't believe they really started a fight with a bunch of street-criminals.
But Leon wasn´t lying. They had tied them up with their hands behind their backs and against the most-sturdy objects they could find in the yard. There also was a quite substantial mountain of wallets and phones lying on the floor before them, I guessed they wanted to make it as easy for the police as possible.
"That was fun" Skye commented with a little chuckle, looking towards Legoshi as he just hang up from his phone call.
"Well" he sighed, "Guess I would have tried something equally reckless back in my day."
"Reckless?" I asked in slight puzzlement.
Legoshi seemed to feel a little bit caught when I asked that, apparently not having noticed me coming towards them. But he just waved it off nevertheless, not wanting to get into detail here as it seemed.
"Well…" the deer now took, "So much for staying quiet."
"It´s the right thing to do" Legoshi sighed, "But this should be over soon. They said they´ll be here as soon as they can. Could be half an hour or more though."
The deer nodded with a little yawn while rubbing his eyes.
"Thanks for your help, Louis" Legoshi told him, "Seriously, that was quick and effective!"
"More lucky chances than anything" he waved it off, now taking a look at his watch.
I checked the time on my phone as well, it was half to four in the morning in the meanwhile. I took another look at the foxes that were tied to the old rusty cars and devices that stood around everywhere, then I decided that I probably didn´t even want to get to know them any closer.
The only thing I wanted at this point is being with Leon and sleep. I had so much to tell him.
"It´s about time we all get some sleep" Legoshi now thought out exactly what I had just been thinking as well, yawning into the back of his hand.
"Don't worry about these clowns" the PI now told him, "I´m gonna wait for the cops and tell them what happened. They know me quite well."
Legoshi nodded thankfully. "Can you tell them you did this on your own? I don't need all that attention if anything gets leaked somehow."
He just nodded understandingly about that.
The white furred vixen now handed him a pistol, the deer took out the magazine for a second and checked it quickly.
"There was a gun?!" I asked in slight fear and puzzlement.
"It´s a fake gun" Legoshi waved it off with a tired little smile, "Don't worry about it."
The white vixen and the deer exchanged a quick look with each other, but they nodded to what Legoshi said.
"So they´ve tried to scare you?" I asked in slight puzzlement.
"It´s been a long night for all of you I´m sure" Legoshi told me, "And for me as well."
I nodded with a little smirk, following him as he now took the lead back towards the others.
"Leon found a hotel right next to Ookami´s home" he told me on the way, "We reserved rooms for all of you."
"Yeah we did!" Leon told me with a big smirk, having waited for me at the hole in the fence already, "I already checked us in, we just have to get there!"
"Sounds good" I told him with a tired smile and a little yawn.
"Everything alright?" my dad now asked us curiously as we all met up by the street again.
"I´m beat" I told him with a little nod.
"Yeah, me too" Bailey agreed.
"Call yourselves a cab" Legoshi suggested, "The rental car won´t fit all of us."
"On it" Leon said, already having his phone in his hands, "I got this."
POV Julian
While waiting for the Taxi Leon had called for us, Bailey and Lucy left the two of us to the side for a moment, wanting to have a four-eyes conversation as it looked.
Legoshi talked to Skye and the deer who helped setting all this up, Ookami just looked at his phone tiredly. The energy amongst them seemed pretty low at this point, but considering that it was almost four in the morning and slowly but surely becoming brighter once again, that was really understandable to me.
Although I was feeling kinda tired as well, I still couldn´t even think about sleep right now. I still was so hyped up by the fight we just had.
"That felt so fucking badass, didn't it?" I asked Leon lowly, giving him a little nudge.
He took a short look around, it seemed like no one else had heard it.
"Yeah" he smiled with a nod, "I think I´m just beginning to fully realize what happened."
"They pulled a gun on me!" I said, trying not to say that too loudly, "A real fucking gun!"
I didn´t quite know why I still was rather excited than terrified by that, but I just felt invincible and undefeatable right now.
Leon just nodded with a little grin, it seemed like he still couldn´t quite believe it either.
"Man…" I said, taking a short look around, "I´m so fuckin activated right now!"
His grin even went a little bit wider right now, it actually seemed kinda relatable to him I believed.
He now just offered me a sneaky fist bump, it was pretty clear he knew exactly what I was talking about.
"Man…" I said, now lower, "I´m gonna fuck her really good tonight!"
"Pfff…" he laughed in amusement.
"Oh you think Lucy will let you off easy after not having seen you in over half a week?" I grinned at him, giving him another nudge.
"Probably not" he chuckled, taking a short look over to our girlfriends.
"Come on now" I grinned at him, playfully boxing his shoulders a little, "You probably saved my life tonight! Not so humble now, Romeo!"
"Okay, yeah" he now confessed with a little grin himself, fighting back a little bit, "I´m really fucking horny too! Where is that stupid Taxi?"
POV Lucy (by RedLiteAlexi)
I looked up at the night sky, the deep hazy black was beginning to show the first signs of a rising sun that would be arriving in a few short hours.
"Damn it's so late, I'm so tired." I whined just loud enough for Bailey to hear. She softly smiled and her tail wagged beside mine. I was never the best at apologizing but I knew that I had to make things right before I went to bed.
"Bailey…I…"
The lab quickly raised a finger. "Before you start what I'm sure is a very nice apology, let me say mine first!" she said, a nervous confidence in her voice. I was taken aback but I was attentive.
"First off, I'm sorry that we imposed on your family. I have my own family strife and I had the right to give you any. Your dad has been nothing but kind to us." She said.
"Oh well thank you, and don't worry, he can use a little strife every now and then. But I'm sorry that I was really…bitchy to you. Just cause our problems are different doesn't mean I can minimize yours. You're my best friend at school and I wanna make sure we can talk about our problems. "
The chocolate brown Labrador girl was actually tearing up a little bit now. "I'm so sorry, I can't believe the way I treated you. I'm really happy you found your dad and I'm excited for you to rediscover your family. I'm just so sorry." She said lowly, bowing her head.
I giggled. "Alright, alright, no more saying sorry!" I pulled the canine close and held her against me. She squeaked as I moved her and I felt her teary eyes on my shoulder. I teared up a little as well, our tails wagging harder by the second.
"I found my mom as well by the way" I now told her to change the topic to something even more cheerful now.
"Really?!" she asked in great excitement for me.
"Yeah" I affirmed, "She was very sweet but also really nervous."
"Oh that´s so awesome!"
"Thanks! I´m gonna visit her tomorrow again, I hope I can get to know her a little better as well."
"I´m sure it´ll be great" she said, trying hard to hide a little yawn of tiredness. "Sorry, I really need to get some sleep."
"Oh it´s not just you" I told her with a chummy nudge, "It´s already getting brighter again look!"
POV Leon
The girls had joined us again while we kept waiting for the cab to arrive. The conversations had stopped for a moment and I suddenly remembered what my dad had suggested to me on our train-ride earlier.
He asked me if I wanted to do a birthday-party at our house this year. He suggested to invite all my friends from my dorm, from my drama club and everyone else I wanted to be there.
I hadn´t been quite so sure about that suggestion earlier, I never was a big fan of parties and of my own ones especially, but now, with Lucy´s head lying on my shoulders, Julian and I finally being cool with each other, and everything else awesome that has happened tonight, I saw that with slightly different eyes. It felt like a cool thing to do right now, and not even the fact that my parents would be there seemed so much of a bad thing anymore.
I decided to just plainly ask them right now what they thought of that idea, and they all supported it with great excitement. It really seemed like the right thing to do and I was happy about that.
Our Cab arrived eventually. Once we got in, Legoshi took Ookami and Skye in the rental car with him and followed us. We were all heading into the same direction anyway, and our Hotel really was just across the street from Ookami´s place.
I just quickly grabbed my suitcase from the trunk and said good night to everyone, then I followed Lucy into the building.
We actually caught up with Julian and Bailey before the elevator arrived, so we took that ride together once more, but when they exited the car a few stories lower than us, we waved them goodbye for tonight and it finally was just the two of us again.
"You know" she chuckled, nudging my side a little, "I´ve been waiting for this all day and all night long."
"What have you been waiting for?" I asked her teasingly.
"For you to come to Tokyo of course" she giggled.
We exited the car and took a look down the giant hallway we found ourselves in. The electric key-card said room 621, so we were correct on the 6th level already.
"Oh I know exactly what you want" I grinned at her with a little chuckle as we went down then hall searching for our door. She suddenly stopped in her tracks now, apparently remembering something.
"I haven't even looked at your snap yet!" she then announced in great amusement, pulling out her phone from her pocket.
I immediately released my suitcase for a moment and took my chance. She hadn´t seen that embarrassing response I´ve sent her yet, so this was the opportunity to stop her. I snatched her phone from her hands before she could even unlock it and successfully put it in my pockets before she could catch me.
I quickly grabbed my suitcase again and walked further down the hallway in search of our door.
"Hey!" she complained with a giggle, chasing after me, "That´s not fair!"
"Look!" I said while walking, trying to distract her, "Here is our room!"
"Give me my phone!"
We continued giggling and laughing while I tried to open the door with the key-card and getting all my stuff into the room and without her getting her phone back out of my pocket, I really hoped we didn´t wake anyone up at this time of night.
She managed to tackle me onto my bed at some point, and then she teasingly climbed on top of me, pinning my shoulders down with both her hands and her entire body weight.
"You know what?" she asked with a big grin now, "Since you won´t show me your snap, I think I have to find another way to satisfy myself."
She now used one of her legs and gently rubbed her knee over my crotch, looking pretty satisfied with my reaction already.
"So…" I chuckled, trying hard to keep a straight face but failing quite badly, "…you haven't even watched it yet?"
"Julian and Bailey were already there when you sent it" she explained with a nod, "And with everything that was going on I pretty much forgot about it."
"Phew" I said, acting as if I was swiping sweat off my forehead.
"What are you so embarrassed about anyway?" she asked with a giggle.
"Your video was so hot" I told her with a smirk and a tinge of embarrassment in my voice, "It had me aroused all morning."
She just gave me a big smile for that compliment.
"…I was in the bathroom way longer than I wanted to, and I never really was content with the crappy video I made. It always looked so bad compared to yours. Such a shame I could only watch it once."
"Come on, Romeo" she chuckled, giving me a loving kiss, "Don't be so hard on yourself."
I smiled and kissed her back.
"I´m proud of you for asking Julian and Bailey to come to your birthday party by the way" she now told me, "I´m glad you two understand each other better now."
"He´s quite alright" I confessed with a smile, "…but I´m so gonna throw him in the pool!"
She now just grinned at me from above very widely. I now playfully rolled her over to the side and quickly climbed back on top of her again.
I took another look at the maned wolf below me, I truly never felt happier than right now.
She giggled joyfully as I kissed her again, then she grabbed my T-Shirt and pulled it over my head.
"It´s half to five in the morning and you´re still horny?" I asked her with a smile.
"Alright mister" she grinned ironically, "As if you just wanted to go to sleep right now."
I was just left grinning back at her, she knew I couldn't talk myself out of that one anyway.
She now began opening up the zipper of my pants with her hand, I now suddenly remembered something rather important.
"Uhm…" I grinned, "I know you´re really desperate right now…but…shouldn't we close the door to the hallway first?"
Tell me what you think, I´d be glad for your feedback!
Might do another smut chapter, can´t promise anything though.
See you later, have a nice Christmas!
