Chapter 12
Bo immediately stopped the recording and rushed downstairs. „Kenzi I warn you. If this is another... Oh shit" Her eyes fell on the lifeless body of Ivy and Kenzi kneeling infront of her crying.
„I... I don't know what happened...One second... one second we were playing and then.. then suddenly she started to sweat and... and her breathing... and... I ran to get her pills, but... she was spasming and now..." the goth girl was hysterically rambling. She'd never seen her adopted sister so distraught.
„Did you.. erm.. did you give her her medicine?" Bo started to panic. She didn't know what to do. Usually she just called Lauren whenever they had any medical problem but that was out of the question.
„She's not breathing Bo, how should she swallow that stuff?" Kenzi asked with tearful eyes.
„We... I..." the brunette was clueless. She frantically strolled around the room, hands pulling at strands of hair.
„Ambulance?" she tried again. She wouldn't let her loves sister die. Laurens babysister, her only family, dammit.
„Too far away..."
„Why the fuck is she living so far away from the hospital when she is so sick?"
„What about CPR?"
„I don't know how... you?"
„No... I wish Lauren was here... dammit..."
„Bo do something... Her heart isn't beating." sobbed Kenzi tightly holding the girls hand.
„I'm no fucking doctor, I only know how to heal by fucking people. I'm the one who is taking lives not the other way around. I'm draining people." the succubus hissed. She hated being helpless. There had to be anything she could do. What would Lauren do? Something highly complicated. She'd probably brew some stuff out of the usual kitchen stuff or the things she always kept in her bag...
Kenzi stopped weeping for a moment and looked at her. Her eyes brightened. „That's it"
The brunette just looked at her questioningly. „What? You want me to suck her dry?"
„Sometimes you are way more stupid then you look... Remember Dyson?"
It slowly dawned on her what Kenzi was talking about. „But... she is human and she is not wounded... I don't know Kenz..." She was scared. What if she did anything wrong? She couldn't live with THAT.
„BO!"
Her body shook slightly when she leaned down. Ivys face was covered with sweat, her skin sickingly pale. Carefully she brushed the loose strands of hair from the girls face.
„I hope this works..." she whispered when she hovered a few centimetres over the other womans lips. Bo took a moment to concentrate before she slowly started to breathe some of her chi into Ivy. She felt her lifeforce leaving her, but it wasn't critical. Fortunately it didn't take long when the girls eyes fluttered open. The brunette gasped while sitting up, almost knocking Bo over in the process.
„Thank god..." Bo whispered to herself.
„Pills..." Ivys voice was shaking like her whole body. Kenzi immediately grabbed the discarded pills from the floor and handed them the sick woman who gulped four down without water. Exhausted she slumped down again turning her head to Bo.
„I don't know what you did and I'm not sure that I want to know...but... thanks. I'm... feeling better. I'm sorry that I scared you..." She sounded weak.
„Don't be sorry... Everthings ok... well... will be ok. It's late. Get some sleep. Can you walk?" Bo asked concerned.
„I guess" Ivy put her feet on the ground, lifting herself from the couch. Her legs were shaky, Kenzi catched her when she was about to fall down.
Bo reached for the younger woman and lifted her in her arms. Ivy blushed.
„I... can do it on my own... besides I'm way to heavy..."
„Girl, Bo can take an ogre piggyback and she wouldn't break a sweat."
„You saying I'm as heavy as an oger?" Ivy said with mock hurt.
„Considering Bo's facial expression I'd say heavier..." Kenzi grinned.
Bo just shook her head. Near death experience and the two are bickering like nothing happened. Unbelievable, but she had to admit that it made her smile.
„Enough you two. It's the middle of the night, the day was a hard one. We all get some sleep now, comprende?"
„Yes mom" Both Ivy and Kenzi stuck out her tongue.
„Keep on going girls and I'll lock the xbox somewhere you will never find it"
„Nooooo not our games. You are a mean mean mommy" Kenzi pouted.
„Wow hotpants got some pretty tight shirts." Kenzi wolfwhistled holding up a very low cut top that didn't seem to cover much skin.
„Kenzi stop digging in her drawers, I warn you if..." Bo started scolding the younger woman who seemed pretty unimpressed by her speech.
„Let's take a look.. what do we have here..." She carefully pulled out what had piqued her interest. she couldn't see from this point what it was but she soon would.
„Come to mommy..." she grinned. It took her only a moment to recognize what she was holding and her smirk vanished instantly from her face.
„Eeew... that's... God I never thought the doc... And I touched... eeeew" Kenzi shrieked, throwing back the leather harness and it's surprisingly big appendage back in the drawer. Cursing under her breath she ran into the bathroom, frantically scrubbing her hands.
„I warned you Kenzi..." Bo said, a slight blush covering her face.
„I thought you were talking about her panties or... I don't know... But a fucking strap on? Really? You knew it was there? I still can't believe...eeew..."
„I didn't know it was there Kenzi, but I know HER and it doesn't really surprise me... You know she is pretty good with that thing. Better than most of the guys..." the succubus smirked, recalling very pleasant memories.
„TMI! That's just... thanks for the image Bobo. Now I'm going to have nightmares" grumbled the shocked girl.
„Stop sulking and come to bed"
„With that thing present? If you think that I'm going to test it with you..."
Bo stopped listening to Kenzis outraged monologue and replayed the scene of Lauren singing again and again and again. Small tears were unknowingly trickling down her cheeks while the lyrics and the sound of her lovers voice sank in.
„Hey Succubitch I#m talkin' to yah"
„What?"
„Whoa... Is that really hotpants singing? dude, she's awesome"
Bo immediately turned the TV off. The DVD was personal, no matter how much she loved and trusted Kenzi, she owed it to Lauren to keep it secret.
„Why are you acting like I caught you watching porn? Ow... oh god... there is bow chic a bow wow on that tape, isn't it?"
„No... different DVD..." Bo mumbled.
„You have a sextape? I have the feeling my whole world is turning upside down concerning the doc..."
Bo didn't know what time it was, but she was damn sure that it was way to early considering how tired she was. Reluctantly she reached for her ringing phone.
„Hmm... what is it Trick?" a sleepy Bo mumbled.
„Bo. It's Dyson. He's missing." Bo's stomach tightened. A cold feeling crept over her body.
„Missing? What do you mean by missing?"
„He said he had a trace...A clue where Lauren might be. He wanted to take a quick look, but that's hours ago now and his phone is turned off."
„Shit... I wake Kenzi up and get on the way"
„Bo... Hell is breaking loose, humans being hunted and executed. Kenzi isn't save and I'm not sure that you will be. It isn't the best time being unaligned."
„Kenzi is safer with me then somewhere alone and I can't just stay here. I will find Lauren and Dyson too and you won't stop me gramps"
„When I've learned something over the time it is that I can't stop you..." Trick sighed.
„Just please Bo...Don't do anything rash or stupid. We're at a point that can decide the future of the Fae. Don't jeopardize it by only listening to your feelings..."
Bo's voice hardened. „We will be there in about 7hours. Bye" she hung up without waiting for an answer. Trick and the greater good... How furious her own grandfather was able to make her...
„Kenzi. Wake up. We gotta go" the brunette nudged her sleeping companion.
„hmm.. just five more minutes babuschka..." the goth girl mumbled and curled into ball.
„Dyson's gone missing and we may have a clue where Lauren could be, so get your lazy ass out of bed. Pronto" she slapped Kenzis ass for emphasize.
„Goooood I smell like foul eggs... Seriously Bo?" Kenzi complained sniffing at her clothes.
„What was in that bottle? This is really, really disgusting..." Ivy said wrinkling her nose. They were on their way back home. The Camaro was almost falling into pieces when Bo brought it to it's limit.
„Skunkape..."
„That thing really exists? Where did you get that stuff from and why are we wearing this exclusive eau de toilet again?"
„It makes the Fae believe you are one of them and helps us to get you through the road blocks they erected along the way. Lauren used it to trick those Fae in hecuba and it worked fine..."
„I feel like I have to throw up..." Kenzi whined.
„Me too... Are you Fae usually smelling so... gross?" Ivy asked disgusted.
„No"
„Mommy I need to pee..." Kenzi whined.
„We were making a break just 10 minutes ago."
„But I have to pee now..."
„Bobo I want ice cream..." Ivy cried.
„You're fat enough big ass..." Kenzi nudged the other woman.
„Not true."
„Yes it is"
„No it isn't"
„Yes it is"
„Boooooo Kenzi is mean again."
Bo's knuckles were white when she was gripping the steering wheel full force. It had been amusing for the first few minutes the two were acting like some spoiled children, but the farther they got the more unnerving the situation was for the succubus.
„Stop!" Bo growled loudly. „Just stop for ONE second, ok? How can you act like some brats the whole time, laughing and joking while your sister" she looked at Ivy. „My girlfriend and your..." Bo looked a second at Kenzi considering what to say. „Hotpants... is in great danger and Dyson is missing."
After Bo's outburst there was a moment of silence until Kenzi spoke up.
„We know Bo... We really do... It's just... the way we cope with things..."
After a way to long car ride they finally reached their destination. The rest of the ride had been pretty quiet, the atmosphere was tense and Kenzi was pissed at Bo for yelling at her like that. She should have known her better than to assume she wouldn't care, the Bo was again the only one who felt the pain, the only one who cared and worried.
The Skunkape worked surprisingly well and they hadn't been discovered the whole way.
„Trick?!" Bo called into the empty Dal. It didn't take long for the barkeeper to appear at the door to his study. The trio strolled to the bar. Bo and Kenzi slumping down on her usual stools while Ivy seated herself on the stool next to Kenzi who already capped a bottle of vodka pouring herself a shot.
„Isn't it a little early for that?"
„You're not my mom" Kenzi snapped.
Trick arched an eyebrow at the unusual snappy behaviour towards Bo.
„Wow you smell like you bathed in a tub of foul eggs..." Trick exclaimed.
„Your breath doesn't smell like a field of flowers either Mr. Garlic." Kenzi was pissed...
Trick just let out a deep sigh, deciding to leave the young human alone for a bit until she had calmed down.
„Who is that girl?" Trick pointed at Ivy.
„Ivy Beattie. Lauren...erm.. Karens sister. I had a bad feeling about leaving her there..."
„Karen?"
„Long story I will tell you when we have time. You said Dyson was missing and that he had a clue where Lauren could be?"
„Yes, but he didn't tell me..."
„You gotta be kidding me... Where the hell did he go Trick? She could be in danger. What if they do something to her? Kill her?" Her eyes where on the brink of tears.
„Oh she won't be the one getting killed... It's rather her killing the others I'd be afraid of...They need her alive, but that doesn't mean that the won't break her..." A red headed woman appeared from the study. Clothes ripped and blood stained, her fiery red hair stained with crimson blood. Her piercing blue eyes were surprisingly warm.
„You should rest girl, please." Trick looked at the woman with concerned eyes.
„It's fine. I'm maybe a little tired. It's not everyday you get your head blown away by someone you trusted, but it's not so easy to kill a Akhilleús...Need to feed a little more and I will be as good as new..." she smiled a sad smile and then looked at Bo. Her face stern.
„You have to hurry succubus or your girl will only be hollow shell... Make those people suffer..."
Bo was confused. What was this woman talking about? „Who are you?"
„Name's Annaya but you can call me Anna"
A/N: Got a little bumpy on the way. Sorry ‚bout that. I'm not good with that dialog stuff... *coughs
