Lights, sounds, smells and tastes.
"Oh my goodness! Tails my dear you look very handsome" purred the vixen, Tails beamed, eyes glimmering there sapphire blue… On the ride down the elevator Tails decided to ask His new friend about his female companion, Eli let out a bark of laughter. And explained quite simply that he was her older brother, and they just had a special relationship. But the one piece of news the older fox said that made Tails heart skip a beat, "and the lass seems to like you, little hero"
Now the nerves were chewing Tails from the inside out. He tried to remember any and all the lines his closest friend, and ladies man, Sonic ever said. His heart sank… they all sounded super cheesy! The orange fox tugged the reddish foxes jacket sleeve, Eli looked down, eyebrows held high, "Hmm?" "S-so your sure? What do I say? What does your sister like?" Tails twisted his hands together, biting his lower lip, this was all so new to the young fox. Eli lowered his snout, gazing at Tails over his shades. Husky eyes seeming to laugh, "Kid, you're a Hero of Mobius. You hardly have to say anything."
As amused as his eyes might have seemed, the older fox showed no emotion in his voice. Tails thought it odd but the door *pinged* opened, and he walked out, arms crossed. Shrugging it off for simply not knowing his new friends all that well, Tails stepped out of the elevator, giving another pose. He smiled on the inside; the vixen looked surprised, almost relived to see him. His worries of earlier ebbed away, she must have just needed to relive herself pretty bad. Her demeanor showed none of the agitation Tails had seen 10 minutes ago.
The three of them walked to the entrance of the luxurious hotel. Tails noticed a cozy little Human gathering place near the lobby. With a sign he had hoped to see long before now. 'Portal access phone', "Sonic, I forgot to call him!" Tails exclaimed. "Can you guys wait here? I have to make a call!" Tails chirped happily has he trotted toward the hotels Human lounge Bar.
The two older fox's followed Tails, stopping at the bar; Eli waved his paw at the female Human waiter. "So.." he said, looking at his sister with a cocked eyebrow "what did grumpy-guss say?" He turned to the Human, ordering himself a drink. "We have a slight problem, love" the vixen purred, Eli took the small glass from the waiter, passing her some human currency he raised the pungent, amber liquid to his lips, ice clinking in the glass. Eli loved the feeling of the drink, it burned. Humans had a million inventions, and this was the older fox's favorite by far.
After he took another a long, deep drag out of the sparkling glass, His sister reached out, took the glass and downed the remains of Elis drink, giving a shudder when the amber liquid warmed her all the way to her belly. Her bothers eyes alight with irritation, she purred. She liked acting like the dominate sibling. "Dutch said to keep an eye on you. He also said that the skunk and his cronies know we swiped Tails from the Portal station. They were watching him the second he arrived." Elis jaw tightened at the sound of the Acorn secret service leader, fists flexing.
That meant they knew they were in this hotel. They could be right outside the bar, Panic griped the older fox, and he spun around. Looking to see if there guest had vanished. Half expecting to see a phaser pointed up in his snout. But all Eli saw were Humans in lavish clothes sitting in plush chairs, sipping there drinks, and an orange teenage fox chatting happily on the Portal accessible phone. Bonnie's hand gently touched his jaw; turning his head towards hers, emerald eyes piercing his.
"It's ok, were still on track. But we should leave, and now. I have a youngster to seduce. Dutch said to continue as planned-" Eli's quick hand reached up, grabbing his sister paw in his strong fingers. Squeezing hard, causing his sibling to squirm.
A playful smile playing on the females lips, the pain evident on her sparkling eyes. The two siblings were always competing to be the dominant one. Eli stood abruptly, bending Bonnie's hand further as he got up. Her head dropped low, smile fading, face grimacing in discomfort. He put his free hand behind her skull, pulling her face into his chest.
He lowered his head, snout a few millimeters from her furry ears. The unpredictable fox inhaled deep, taking in his sisters sent, "Just remember were your really belong too" he sneered. Holding her face pressed against him for a moment then letting go. Bonnie lifted her face to the intimidating red fox, and smacked his face with her unrestrained hand, eyes burning with an odd, crazed respect for her older brother. She had on a wild grin, her neat, clean teeth glinting. She loved this game.
Ever since the two were young, robbing candy stores and setting fireworks off under teacher's chair, the power struggle between the two had been fierce. Even deadly at times. Long before Eggmans armada arrived on the pristine planet and ravaged it with robot hoards, the two had been trouble from the very moment the siblings could walk. In high school one of their favorite games was for bonnie to flirt with fellow students, only to trick them, unleashing her violent and unpredictable brother. It would result in the poor soul rendered broken and bloody, begging to know why the curvy vixen would dupe and trick them and do that to them. Needless to say two were kicked out of more schools then there were available in Mobotropilis.
Later it became bank robbing, then random hostage taking. Eventually the two were caught. They were sentenced to 7 years each. Eli ended up incarcerated for 10 years. The reason why, was the violent fox would play a dangerous game with the Mobius prison guards; he would save the grease from his meals in a plastic bag he had found. And when the clever fox had gathered enough, he would take a fellow prisoner hostage. Locking himself and the victim in a room, He would then threaten to murder the other inmate, ranting and raving. Until the prison staff had no other choice but to bust in the door of wherever the crazed fox had barricaded himself and his guest in.
But before they did, the fox would take the grease filled bag in hand, smearing it all over his body, working into his fur, making it almost impossible for the prison guards to get a hold of the crazed inmate. The damage the fox caused on the prisons staff was tremendous. Eli would do this often in his first 5 years of incarceration.
The reddish fox made it a game. After a while they just left him in solitary confinement for the rest of his sentence, with an extra 3 years. Totaling ten, He left prison seemingly unaffected. Too Bonnie it seemed like her brother came back from a 10 year vacation, they went right back to the theft, murder, and chaos they had loved.
Bonnie knew that Acorn Prison was a miserable place, to have her only brother and friend come back the same as he left, only served to reinforce himself as the dominate sibling. Still the young vixen got a kick out of egging her brother on, loving his commanding, and eerie vibe.
"Are you two ok?" Human still unsure of the strange new creatures, the human waiter looked worried. Having watched the conversation as it heated up. Sighing Bonnie turned her head towards the nosy Human, impatiently saying "yes dear, were fin-"Eli cut her off, "another drink" he said flatly.
The Human nodded with smile. As far as she was concerned, the- and the human still could not believe it, even after 5 years-the two walking, talking fox's were paying customers, the young female human would rather stay out of it, even if her better judgment told her that the male fox seemed… unstable. Bonnie shooting her brother a sharp look when the humans back was turned, "Dutch wants you sober." She hissed while the human poured the golden amber liquid onto fresh cubes of ice.
"Fuck Dutch" her sibling hissed back, releasing his hold on the vixen's hand. If this had been a regular job, she wouldn't have cared so. But this was important.
The machine spat out the receipt, Tails took it and crumpled it up. Tossing the paper into the wastebasket beside the expensive, planet to planet phone, Sonic wasn't home. The fox had spent 10 minutes of his standing and listing to that pink ball of spikes' go on and on about nothing important. At least he knew Sonic was keeping busy, according to Amy Rose the Court of Acorn and Geoffery St John had called him away on "urgent matters" when the fox felt a slender hand touch his shoulder.
"Hey hero, let's get going, we have a lot to show you!" Tails felt a warm glow in his chest, and turned around giving Bonnie a thumbs up "I'm ready to 'Rock and Roll' as they say!"
It didn't take long for the older reddish fox to flag down another yellow human car, the three of them piled into the back again, "To Zanzibar please" Eli spoke giving Tails a poke in the ribs with his elbow, laughing, making the young fox giggle, Tails was really warming up too these two. "were going to rock your world big boy" Bonnie teased, as she got in closing the metal door of the cab behind her, grabbing the shy orange fox's hand, reddish and orange fur, fingers entwined, together. Tails was almost to the point of jumping out of his skin with excitement, he had heard of human night life, longed to see it for himself. And now he had two, friendly Mobian's with him, both being fox type. The female even was interested in him, oh how he wished Sonic was home to hear what Tails was about to experience.
The establishment they arrived at was crowded; the music was pumping, shaking the bones of the young Mobian. A torrent of lights, 'Zanzibar' was popping. It was surprising how many other Mobian's were there, all of them seemed in a trance, moving there bodies in time with the thumping Human beats.
The different colored lights were pulsing, fog making the laser lights pop, strobe lights flashing. Bonnie was speaking to the young fox but for all he knew she could have been confessing her love for the freedom fighter, the music was so loud all he saw was the breath-taking fox moving her slender lips.
She grabbed his hand, pulling the young vulpine to the counter in the middle of the thumping circus of grinding body's, the smell of Humans and Mobian's wild hormones filled the snout of the orange fox. His bright blue eyes taking in the exotic scene playing out in front of him, there were Squirrel, Wolf, Hedgehog and all kinds of other Mobian types dancing and partying with Humans, Humans grinding against Mobian and vice-a-versa. Lights and pheromones flooded the vulpine senses; it was everything he imagined and more.
His hand was grabbed and a glass was thrust into it, Eli grinning like a mad man, head bobbing to the music, "TRY IT!" he yelled to be heard above the booming music, for once the older fox didn't have the odd dark glasses on his face. Husky blue eyes bore into the young fox's. Tails tipped the glass up his lips; the taste was fruity and crisp. With a bitter bite for an after taste, it was wonderful! He beamed at Eli, Eli beaming right back, pointing behind Tails, the young fox tuned, body involuntarily moving with the deep pounding bass. Bonnie was swaying her hips, her body inches from his. Emerald eyes sparkling in the torrent of colored lights, arms held above her head. Getting closer, suddenly Eli was whispering in his ear. The encouragement from his new friend helped, but this was all still so strange and alien to Tails.
Eli spun the young fox around back around, making their eyes meet. His hand went up, touching the bottom of the glass Tails had, lifting the beverage up to the younger fox's lips, tilting the liquid toward the vulpines mouth.
Tails didn't fight it, he let the sweet nectar flow down his throat. It burned slightly, the fruity over tones masking the harsh taste of the clear liquor humans called vodka. It hit his belly with a refreshing splash, Tails made a face for a moment, letting himself adjust to the sudden breathlessness he had. Eli spun Tails back around, giving him a little push towards his sister, sneaking a maniacal grin to his curvy sibling. Then turned his attention on a young grey, Mobian Dog type, with short bouncy locks of black hair, her busty hips swaying and dipping, Hazel eyes pleading, coaxing the older fox over. After a solid 15 minutes of dancing with his perky new friend, the thirsty Tails put his glass back on the counter, "WANT ANOTHER!?" the male human behind the counter half asking half yelling over the thumping music.
Tails nodded vigorously, the human reached under his counter, pulling out a clear bottle of liquid. "WHAT WERE YOU DRINKING?!" the human yelled again, Tails shrugged. The Human must have been used to inexperienced Mobian's, for he smiled and then tipped the bottle over, letting a fair amount of clear fluid into his glass, then grabbing a plastic nozzle from a set of different kinds of taps, sprayed a red syrup into the glass. Giving it a stir and passing the drink back to the young Mobian.
It tasted exactly the same as the last drink Eli had helped Tails chug, like the fried chicken the young fox had earlier in the day, he rolled his eyes at the tart, refreshing beverage. The music suddenly got quite.
Some Humans gathered on a stage, the lights going dim. Bonnie shook tails, excited. "OH! I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE HERE!" she yelled over the course of cheers, and was pointing at the stage in the corner. Three of the humans had trumpets, one was behind a complicated set of drums, three more humans stalked the stage, readying them self's. The lights went out. Then Tails heard a *CLICK CLICK CLICK-TING* and over the speaker a artificial female human said in a sing song voice "ITS TIME TO WIN!" and the band was off, a strong and defiant beat, the singers reveling in the crowd, who was in return reveling in them.
Tails found himself jumping with the mixed ocean of tightly packed humans and Mobian's, it was hot, his makeshift vest not helping the heat of the swaying crowd. Tails needed water, the band had been pumping out song after song, each as powerful as the last, and it had drained Tails. He was on his 5th drink, the Human liquor filling him with a confidence he had never felt before. There was a song or two during the bands performance wear Tails and Bonnie were pelvis to pelvis, grinding and swaying with the music, she had even kissed the young fox a few times. If only the orange vulpine could see the looks the two siblings were exchanging. There plan, although not complicated, was working. There guest was getting sloppy, a few times Tails found himself holding his eyes with his fore finger and thumb, trying to stop the spinning. Now Tails found himself leaning on the bar counter, desperately in need of water, oh if only the bartender wasn't busy.
Bonnie slunk away while Tails went to rehydrate. The vixen walked defiantly up to Eli and his curvy Mobian dancing partner, giving the intruder a shove, Bonnie flashed her fangs at the grey hound, who gave a ticked off look of disapproval, and took off into the crowd. Now she had her brother to herself, Eli hadn't even batted an eye at the action his sister took. He instead grabbed her roughly by the hips, spinning Bonnie around he started to grind on her cushiony behind in time with the pounding music, nipping her neck, growling his disapproval in his sister's ear. He warned her not to do anything like that again. Bonnie, back pressed tightly up against her brother's chest fur, simply rolled her eyes. 'poor silly beast' she mused, This was her game, not his.
The two siblings were still dancing and drinking when Bonnie saw tails wasn't at the bar anymore, another thing was bothering her, Dutch hadn't shown up yet. He was the one who switched meeting places. Was there another bar in 'Upper level main street' called the 'Zanzibar?, no something felt wrong. And to top it off, her sibling had been into the Humans drink again. He had crossed that threshold between comfortably intoxicated, to belligerent. Just enough alcohole to make the wrong decisions… then relief flooded the vixen. There he was, Tall and intimidating. Not quite as tall as a standard human, but one of the biggest Mobian's Bonnie had seen in years. Shiny short black fur covered the muscle bound Doberman. 'Dutch!' Bonnie broke contact with her brother, leaving the dance floor making her way towards there comrade. "Here" he said without any inflexion, she took two heavy items, both wrapped in black cloth, "has he been drinking?" he asked flatly. Bonnie cast her eyes down, she couldn't really pin it all on Eli, she had more then her share of the Human drink herself. But were Eli was rash and unpredictable she was mostly in control she figured.
"we both had a drink or two with the kid, so what?" she said defensively "Then return what I gave you. Go home." The vixen hissed at the hulking black dog. His hazle eyes boring into hers, "No were just as infested in this as you!" she said low and harshly. The Doberman nodded, and then looked around. Then back at too the vixen, "were is Miles?" Bonnie honestly didn't know, but had a good idea. She motioned to her brother and pointed to a blue neon sign of a human stick figure. Her sibling nodded, and headed in the direction he was shown. To Bonnies relief he didn't sway or trip foolishly while moving. Dutch didn't say anything, which after knowing the old war dog for a long time, she knew was a good sign.
Tails had to rush as fast as he could to the bathroom, hand pressed firmly up to his mouth. He would have spun up his tails and flew above the pulsing crowd, but with the booze coursing through his veins, he might not have even have gotten 3 feet off the ground before falling face first. He burst open the door to the stall, and everything seemed to want to leave his stomach at once. The toilet water turning a mix of different colors, Tails shuddered with every heave. When he heard the door opened and a strange voice called out "Master Prower?" Tails couldn't reply if he wanted to, the fluid kept bubbling up out of his tummy, filling his mouth. "Master Prower your in danger, is that you?"
