Notes:
Hey guys, sorry for the super late update, but here's chapter 6 :)
I've got the entire story planned out with a perfect ending, but haven't written the whole thing down yet, but I'll get there.
Truth be told, at one point I've lost interest in continuing this story, but thanks to my readers encouraging reviews (I re-read them, over and over), I decided to continue. I'm sorry if I have let you down because of this late update.
But hey, here I am, finished with 6 and I hope I'm not disappointing you with it.
Enjoy reading!
Chapter 6.
It was thirty seconds before the bomb reached it's timer's end and exploded, that Matt and Mimi managed to excaped from the lab safely and ran straight into the car, where Taichi and Sora were waiting for them.
Without the need for Matt to urge his gang leutenant to drive away the moment he and his -pretend- hostage settled themselves on the back seat, Taichi sped away from their parking spot in an accelerating speed in the attempt to avoid being engulfed by the explosion together with the lab.
The moment Taichi conjectured that he'd drove out of the explosion range, he slowly decelerated the car speed.
"I win. Now, pay up!" Taichi demanded as he grinned with triumph, stretching his left palm open in front of Sora while his other hand was handling the steering wheel.
"Well, I will not." Sora refused, enunciating each word for full effect. "Because I don't remember agreeing to the bet."
"That's not fair!"
"You two were betting on us?" Matt asked, quirking a brow.
"Yeah, on whether you could or couldn't make it out in time with that drag queen in tow." Tai replied, pointing his index finger over his shoulder at Mimi, who sat behind him.
"Hey! I'm not a drag queen." Mimi complained.
"Dude, you've known me for years. I've always made it out. What's the point with all those bets?"
Tai responded with a shrug. "You know us, the usual."
"Er, you mean you." Sora pointed out, narrowing her eyes in process. "I'll never involve myself in any of your stupid bet..." she trailed off and paused momentarily, "...after the first time. You are practically making obvious bets just to see me lose. I may be fooled once, but not twice!"
"Oh babe, you are afraid of losing. Again." Tai laughed an evil laugh, which was one of his weird hobby that Sora particularly hated the most.
"I am not!"
"Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, didn't you two had a fight earlier on today?" without the need to turn their heads around, the two said pair knew Matt was smirking at the back seat.
Silence.
"But isn't it great?" Mimi suddenly spoke up, breaking the ice. "You two are friends again!"
"No one ask you opinion princess." Tai retorted sternly.
"That's not very nice Tai." Sora glared at the man sitting next to her before Mimi started forcefully jerking his messy brown hair, making him yelped in pain on his seat.
The moment Mimi finally let go of Tai's hair, he let out a low groan. "Bitch!" he screeched at the girl as he rubbed his stinging head.
"Tai, look out!" Sora shrieked, pointing at the road.
Suddenly aware of the incoming -furiously honking- oil truck that was heading right towards them, Tai's eyes widened in shock as he realized he had accidentally and unconciously diverted their car to another lane, but with quick reflex, he promptly averted their car back to its supposed lane."Fuck!" he cursed, shooking his head furiously before focusing himself back on driving. "Just you wait Tachikawa! Just you wait." he declared with rage.
"You deserved that." Matt quipped while Sora giggled and Mimi murmured "Serve you right." crossing her arms in front of her chest, a deep frown on her face.
"We could have died!" the car driver snapped at his overly relaxed passengers after almost being hit by a truck.
"So boss, what's next?" Sora asked, ignoring Tai's more soon-to-come bitching. "Fyi, we got two of our boys following the truck."
(FYI = for your information. slang)
"Do you even need to ask?"
Sora groaned as she rolled her eyes. "Let me guess..." she retorted. "You are going to blow the chemicals together with the truck?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." uttered Tai followed by a snort, shooking his head in a sarcastic manner, "Sora, Sora, Sora... How dense."
"Excuse me?!" the ginger haired girl responded furiously.
"Sorry, but I have to agree with Tai on this." Matt said with a slight nod. "We can't blow them up, we have to bury them somewhere deep, untouchable, that is... if, we don't want to have anything to do with it..."
"Jesus Matt! You-"
"Woohoo!" Taichi cutted Sora off before she could complain any further. His expression was suddenly overwhelmed with enthusiasm."This is why you are the bestest friend I've ever had. That's brilliant! Instead of destroying it, we could make use of it instead. And the best part is, you have planned it all along didn't you? You sly fox!"
"Well said my friend, well said."
"You guys are insane!"
"But Matt, isn't that dangerous?" Mimi questioned the gorgeous blonde sitting next to her, her expression filled with concern. "It could affect us too, couldn't it? I don't want to become a mindless abomination, and most importantly you. I don't want you to-"
Matt chastely took Mimi's chin with his right hands, pulling her face closer to his. "Don't worry, babe. I have it all planned out." he said coolly with his deep voice and a smirk that instantly made Mimi's bone turned jelly before she let out a soft breathless sigh.
"Ew, please. I beg you, don't start smooching back there." Taichi wrinkled his face at the sudden -awkward- romantic scene created at the back seat. He could see them through the rear-view mirror for fuck's sake, and even though he could just ignore it, he couldn't. He needed the help from the freakin' mirror to drive!
Actually, he wouldn't mind if they'd just skip the romantic stuff -since the said cheesy scene was dreading his stomach- and move on to the erotic part instead. Like what he almost perceived yesterday in the helicopter. Image, if only Sora didn't stop them the other day. Matt would have had savored that girl right there and Tai was a hundred percent sure that, that scenario would happened! And to top it all, since that time he wasn't even the one driving and... with Sora sitting next to him, he could easily use that excuse to have a go at it with her. Again.
Unless... Sora decided to slap him instead.
Oh, just what's the point of fantasizing about that now. It's never going to happen no matter what/which outcome he get.
Oh how I miss Eri, Kaede and Momo he thought inwardly, reminacing Sora's female parts as his eyes were lingering up and down every tempting corner of Sora's figure.
(Names Tai given for Sora's female parts: Eri= blessed prize , Kaede = maple, Momo = peach. nb: an idea I got from How I Met Your Mother, season 8 episode 2 (if I'm not mistaken). lol. For anyone who watched that show, you might know. But for those who's never watch it, I highly recommend it!)
"Yea, lover boy." Sora quipped at Matt, unaware of Tai's attention on her. "How do you propose we control an entire horde of zombies? They are mindless creatures, genius."
"Step one, We capture some useless people or we could just go for dead ones if you want to be boring. Step two, put them together in a special room. Step three, poison them with the chemical. Step four, when we need them, we let them out so they could start eating brains and if they fuck with us, I'll just blow them up." Matt explained proudly. "Simple as that."
"That's the craziest idea I've ever heard from you! Did Kouhirou knew about this?"
"Sort of." the blonde answered with a shrug. " He didn't at first. Only after I offered him a fully equiped two story high tech laboratory just for himself, he agreed almost instantly."
Sora slapped her face as she groaned with despair. I'm surrounded by idiots! she thought.
"You know, he's pretty awesome for a lab geek." Matt added.
"I assume you are planning on stealing the truck from them, yes?" Taichi asked, "I think I should call the boys and ask them their current location. We could go there now, before it's too late." he added as he took out his phone and started dialing.
"Yes leutenant, I think you should too." Matt punned.
"But hey, did you actually get the formula or not?" Sora inquired, looking over her chair back to her boss, who merely shooking his head innocently, which clearly indicated a no. "Dude! Then what were you doing down there? Having sex with Mimi on one of the lab tables and left your bodily fluids on them to mark your teritory?" she responded furiously. Her voice was so loud that Tai have to hushed her, so he could listen to the speaker on the other line of his phone.
"Sora!" Mimi exclaimed in embarassment, her face flushing red. "We were not! Oh my God..." she started blabbering sheepishly while Matt wondered, "Why are you so upset?" with a slight frown appealed for Sora,
"Because you are being a blockhead, coming up with foolish ideas that will eventually bite us all in the ass, that's why!"
"Watch your mouth woman! I'm the boss here, not you."
"Guys!" Taichi snapped at the two, slipping his phone back into his jeans pocket. "There's no point in arguing about this now! We have bigger problems and that..." he paused momentarily, hesitating on whether he should or should not continue,
"That what?!" Matt urged him angrily.
"...may or may not include catching a plane." Tai finished hastily before clearing his throat.
"Say what?!" Sora and Matt exclaimed in unison.
Taichi let out a small sigh, "The containers are boarding the plane as we speak. We don't know where they are heading."
"Fuck!" Matt groaned furiously. "Why weren't we informed of this sooner?!"
"Chill, chill! Don't blame the boys! They were having trouble sneaking into the airport, some fucking security asked too much questions it seems. They have to shot them down and hide their bodies before they could investigate further."
"Then hurry to the airport!" Matt urged.
"I am! Relax will you. I have things on the airport under control." Taichi told him calmly, "I have the boys doing something to the plane to delay the flight."
Buzz. Buzz. Buzz (phone vibrates)
Hastily, Matt pulled out his cell phone from his pocket and answered the call.
"Boss! We were tricked by those bastards!"
"What do you mean you were tricked?!"
"Turns out, they knew they were being followed and the plane we were hijacking is a trap! The chemicals are not here." the person on the other line explained in a rush, almost stuttering and was most definitely scared.
"Then where the fuck are they?" Matt growled, rubbing between his eyebrows.
"We questioned one of the security and he told us they were boarded on another plane, on the west side of the airport and they departed five minutes ago!"
"Shit!" Matt murmured, "You guys stay put, I'll be there soon."
"Yes boss!"
"Hurry Tai! The west side of the airport, now!" Matt urged as he secured his phone back into his pocket.
"What happened?"
"The plane fucking departed five minutes ago and my entire plan is officially ruined."
"What? Then what are you planning to do now?"
"What do you think?" Matt responded with a stern face. "You and I are going to steal a plane and catch up with them."
"Me? You want me to drive a fucking plane while you jumped yourself off to the other one?"
"Are you serious?" Sora screeched, her eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. "Matt! I know sky diving is your speciality, but jumping from one plane to the other on air is not a good idea! You could die."
"Matt, please don't do this..." Mimi spoke up, concern written all over her flawless features.
"Well, I most certainly don't appreaciate this kind of negativity from any of you." he responded rather crossly. "Have a little faith. I'm doing it no matter what."
"But what if you-"
"Trust me. I've been through tougher challenges." Matt told Mimi after a few cocky chuckles. Confidence, flashing through his pair of -soul sucking- sharp eyes and that courageous smirk of his. "I'll make it out alive." he winked at her.
Mimi knew that look very well.
Boy, she had always loved that look.
He always had that look on him in every reality show he had ever been in and she, as his number one fan -Miyako came second-, had always believed in him. No matter how though or challenging those games were, he'd always prove herself right by making it through every single challenges he'd accepted.
But even though those reality shows looked dangerous, they had protection; fake guns and bullets, those realistic granades and fire traps, well...except for the beasts.
Regardless, he was now about to do something so hazardous. He could die and she couldn't even bare the thought of it. But what choice does she had but to believe in him? Nothing is going to change his mind anyway, from what she observed through television and after a day of spending time with him in person, Ishida Yamato, aka Matt, was a very stubborn man.
"Um, Okay..." Mimi said, her facial expression soften.
"Hm?" Matt quirked a brow in confusion by Mimi's sudden change of mind.
"I know you will make it through that crazy jump you are planning to do, because, I believe in you. I've always have and in fact I'll always will." she chirped enthusiastically, her face brightened up as she spoke and her eyes were gleaming with reassurance. "Just promise me, you will come back safely." she finished in a gentle voice as her hands move up to his black leather jacket, unconciously playing with its collar.
"Wait, you of all people, are on board with his suicidal idea?!" Sora questioned Mimi in a rather rigorous tone.
Ignoring Sora's remark, Matt flashed his customary wolfish grin as he focused his ocean blue eyes on Mimi's whisky coloured ones, "I have to say, Miss Tachikawa, that you have impressed me in many ways I couldn't have imagined in just one day."
"Oh yea, she did." Tai added with sarcasm. "In many ways she... couldn't imagine, to be precise."
"What do you mean?" Mimi asked innocently.
"I mean..."
'Don't Tai..." Matt cutted him off, "...just don't."
"Hey, I got an idea!" Mimi suddenly chimed in, "You guys could catch up with them with my jet. I know you guys probably have one already, but mine is really fast! It's the latest model, limited edi-"
"You own a jet?" Taichi asked, blinking his eyes, couldn't believe what he had just heard.
"Yes. Is that so weird?"
"Well, usually, a young girl like you don't just own a jet."
"I can't believe you are even surprised." Sora pointed out,"Her father is loaded. She even own a private mansion bigger than a cruise ship. Owning a jet is like owning a bike as commoners. It's customary for rich people. Correct me if I'm mistaken."
"It is true..." Mimi nodded.
"But where's your jet? I bet it's protected by a group of your troublesome guards." Matt assumed.
"They are at the airport."
"They? Are they your jets or your guards?"
"Girl, just how many jets-" Tai retorted.
"I've got only three jets and one -sadly rarely used- airplane."
"Only?!"
"Daddy and I each has our own private garage." Mimi explained, ignoring Tai's remark. "There are usually only two guards stationed outside of each garage and you will need my handprint to get inside."
"Alright, things have just become a whole lot easier." Matt responded, resting his left arm on the door sill. "Thank you Mimi." he gave Mimi a grateful smile.
"You are welcome." the girl responded sheepishly, blush creeping on her face.
"Well, I say you better point us the way to your garage, because we are here." Tai informed them as he raced through the netty steel gate, running over a security guard who was trying to stop them.
"That is a limited edition?"Tai commented out loud, "It is so not pimped out, if anything, its pimped in. It looks like it's made for the powerpuff girls!"
He was right.
But Matt wasn't even surprised. This is Mimi's jet they are looking at, of course the excessive flower decorations and the -weird looking- baby panda bear are...well, expected.
Sora gasped in amusement. "Is that, Mr. Murakami's-"
"Yes it is!" Mimi affirmed proudly,"Those stickers were specially designed by him."
"Wha- Who?" the boys asked in confusion.
"Ah, you wouldn't get it anyway." Sora rolled her eyes. "Let's just board the jet already."
"Err, girls..." Matt trailed off. "You two are not going on board with us."
"Why-the-fuck-not? You can't just leave us here!"
"Go back to the crib, go shopping or whatever." Tai suggested.
"Give me one good reason why we should be listening to you?"
"Because I'm your boss?" Matt said, proving his point.
"And Mimi is our hostage?" Tai added.
Silenced by the facts, Sora couldn't help but scowled.
"Alright, fine!" she let out a sigh of defeat, "I'll go back to the crib with Mimi and, or do something exciting together."
"We could visit the spa few floors down the penthouse." Mimi suggested.
"There's a spa? How do you kno-"
"My dad used to own that place, remember?" the long haired girl reminded them.
"Then it's settled..." Sora informed, "But be safe you two, I'll hate you forever if you return to us in urns." she added hesitantly.
"That's our girl! High five." Taichi raised the palm of his right hand, waiting for Sora to slap it back, only to be shunned down.
"Put your five big fat sausages away from me, before I cut them off." Sora retorted with a stern face, crossing her arms in front of her chest, hastily spun her face away from the soccer star.
"Why so cross?"
"Nevermind her Tai, she's just worried about you." Matt quipped before he glanced back at Mimi and winked at her.
"In his dreams!" the short haired girl snapped at the two before striding away towards the car. "Come on Mimi, let's just leave those two idiots to their doom!"
Turning her head around to catch Sora's figure from over her shoulder."Wait for me Sora!" Mimi exclaimed before looking back at Matt and Tai, "I know you two will come back alive and unharm, but be carefull okay." she grinned widely at them, her cheeks raised to her sparkling eyes and for a moment, the two man standing before her were left speechless. Not even Tai could resist her charm.
"Mimi!" Sora called out to her the second time, before she gets into the car; slammed the door and sat on the driver's seat.
"One moment!"
"You better get going." Matt told her, forcing a natural tone.
"Yeah, but before that-" she giggled and all of the sudden, she gave him a quick peck on his lips. "Bye Matt!" she winked at him, running off towards the car before the boys could catch the obvious color that started creeping into her cheeks.
"Wow, dude..." Tai blurted out, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. "I bet that feels awesome."
The stunned expression on Matt's face soon perished, replaced by sudden rush of blood to his face that caused by embarassment. "And soft..." he unconciously added almost too sheepishly.
Damn it! Matt thought to himself, shooking his head, feeling like a fool. Since when did I became this soft. Focus Matt! Focus!
Gaining his conciousness to their current situation, Matt hastily made his way into the jet."Let's go Tai!" he urged his gang lieutenant, who was already tailing him without question.
to be continued.
So? How do you like it? I'll get to the action on the next chapter. It'll be awesome.
Also, the part where I had Tai naming Sora's lady parts, that's an idea I got from How I Met Your Mother, season 8 episode 2 (if I'm not mistaken). lol. For anyone who watched that show, you might know. But for those who's never watch it, I highly recommend it!
Anyway, please rate and review, I love it when I know that there are people out there who love my story. x
