Hanna was currently regretting every choice in her life that led her to this moment. Eyes shut tight, her arms tightly wrapped around her cousin's waist, the texture of black leather under her fingers and the roar of the traffic in her ears. Bright streetlights and glowing signs mixed in to a blur. Her heart beat faster with every twist and turn.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkfWKF7BIz
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIcA94dwxf
Hanna thought Kayla drove like a maniac. She never should have gotten on to this motorcycle. Even though Kayla rode this bike everywhere, the practice somehow hadn't improved her driving skills.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaiwAEtI5F
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTlzmCnE9N
Hanna clutched on to her cousin tightly as they made a tight turn. She questioned for the umpteenth time why she decided to ride with Kayla in the first place. She could have driven her own car there and saved herself the queasy stomach. She tried to calm herself down as the vehicle came to a stop.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljgo1TnzgL
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp3mLzRCTc
"Here we are," Kayla announced, tapping her arm lightly. "You can open your eyes now."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrji635jggJ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67YjHehXuK
"My eyes were open the whole time," Hanna retorted, climbing off the bike and pulling her helmet off. "I needed to know if I'd have to jump off at a moment's notice," she muttered.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVtTWTiGRv
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHUeBZAwfY
Kayla pulled her helmet off and shook her hair up. Hanna saw she'd changed up her hairstyle. Kayla had straightened her hair and added in pink hair extensions, giving her hair bright pink streaks in stark contrast to her natural very dark brown.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PdVAXhIEc
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq8JEHKzYI
"Nice hairdo, you look like you'll fit right in," Hanna commented.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6iD5mGeKZ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0Gux1a0KF
"Thanks, a mission always starts right with the right outfit." Kayla winked at her jokingly.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt29HYbvKoo
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCXxWBBar9
Hanna half-agreed with that. She was wearing flats tonight for a reason. The first time she'd ended up fighting in heels, right in the middle she'd ended up slipped them off and using them as projectiles. They'd been far more useful when they hit her opponent in the face rather than on her feet.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ky8SO7TF6
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1ZTeCYMJE
Otherwise, she hadn't put in much thought into her outfit. She'd thrown on a loose low-cut red dress, short enough to blend in with the other party goers, plus her small black purse. She added gold eye-shadow and crimson lipstick at the last minute.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAxl7vz2yr
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflT1anF8xi
Kayla had gone with a low cut tight pink top under her jacket and a dark red miniskirt. Her high boots completed her biker girl ensemble. Even with her minimal makeup, she looked amazing as always.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaiyjA5BHH
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cXT2urxmb
Hanna turned her attention over to the club they were going to head into. The club had only opened up a couple months ago and she'd never been here before. On top of not being her usual scene, it was on the other side of the city and she preferred her usual haunts.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqgZTNFUQP
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mYgxO9IVj
The building had been an old warehouse before being renovated. The exterior had been left intact, giving the whole place a grungy vibe. The entrance was nothing more than an unmarked side door, the only indicator that it was a club being the line up of brightly dressed perspective party goers.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SxHPnBUZ1
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOFMNazdIQ
"I hope this place is worth the cover," Hanna remarked, looking at the downtrodden exterior.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsWpAmcxm5
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡez7O7KpDIG
"Oh, we'll get our money's worth." Kayla chuckled.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYVlkith5h
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8X4jUqYEO
Kayla and Hanna shared a knowing look before approaching the building. They didn't have to wait outside for long, this wasn't one of the popular clubs of the city. The woman at the door requested their IDs, seeming bored. The two cousins showed their false ID cards and she gave them a passing glance before waving them inside.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeF5ay36KE
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQz3FFSZF2l
They were greeted by a long hallway, sloped upwards and filled with black lights. The walls were covered in splatters of glow-in-the-dark paint. Hanna could feel the rumble of the dance music even now.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfBeuPdbHn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPsqmK4MG0
"I'm twenty five, I shouldn't be getting carded," Hanna complained.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNWIW0sUSI
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCnbp7zNhI
"Says the one who started forging her own fake IDs at fifteen," Kayla teased.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXCpFOCbfe
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LqlVG4JH1
"It's not like that was to get into bars," Hanna added.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNZbvmxqyk
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66t1zXuZfT
Kayla gave her a skeptical look. As they walked further inwards, the sound of the music grew louder.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVmQc8snu7
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiuCzliX06k
"Okay, maybe one bar," Hanna admitted.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZyQNzLsV41
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtWLa1Sabq
Kayla laughed. "You would have gotten caught too if my mom hadn't caught you first."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmiS4STUkj
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhUUjXqzxe
"I've gotten better since then," Hanna argued.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuRdCpt7OS
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtidxzC9rxV
"I know, I taught you." Kayla smiled back.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i9XJsO0Id
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Wbr2HbSPJ
They walked through the clear plastic strips over the corridor's exit to be assaulted with a myriad of lights. Hanna blinked, the brightest of the room a shock from the tunnel. They had come out onto the second floor, with a great view of the whole place. They stepped up to the railing to take the place in.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjKUyJgptQ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qmLabQ8aw
It was huge, even had a second level with a bar on one side. The DJ was at the other end, coordinating the music with the spotlights dancing across the ceiling, with a huge crowd on the dance floor in front of them. The inside was alive with light, music and bodies. It was an utter contrast to the decor outside.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc5Sz3gkbl
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIVDfpSnUT
"Where do we look first?" Hanna asked.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVlT58e75a
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM57iLHAQa0
"The dance floor," Kayla replied energetically, smiling.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVCraMDey6
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEr6OKXGFt5
"I don't think that'll be a good spot?" Hanna said, confused about why her cousin would want to plant the bug there. Nobody would be having important conversations on the dance floor.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpmxpOvpQ1
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRatblvUif
Kayla scoffed at her cousin's attitude. "Uh, we have the whole night for that. Have some fun!"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlFUwUWtdh
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlt8WvTJYD
"We're not here for fun," Hanna reminded her seriously.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7sImyaNSQ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxa48vTYPm
"Party pooper," Kayla teased. "Let's split, you go mope over there." Kayla waved aimlessly at half of the place. "And I'll conduct intense surveillance down there." She pointed down to an area of the dance floor.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa87YJVNwcF
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUizwHtrKj1
"Sure," Hanna said curtly, annoyed at her cousin already. She went left, towards the bar, while Kayla went down the right set of stairs to the floor. She wandered around aimlessly, keeping an eye out for anything that might be relevant to their task.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRdVesSwjj
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFpqFPbEvl
She walked by the bar on the second floor without ordering anything. The whole area was very open and unsuitable for any sort of private conversation. She wove around the standing-only tables to another staircase and made her way downstairs.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzvqNFnqaD
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnBVwYxcSR
On the first floor, under the bar area, she noticed there was a darker area with tables and chairs. She couldn't make out what was at the back, there might be some more private section back there. A VIP area might be a good spot to plant the bug but it wasn't ideal.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPA0sgOkKOw
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8ZFh9jDcW
Hanna saw a couple men kissing off in a dark corner. She sighed. She had come here tonight to forget about her depressing love life. Her plan was not working. She tore his eyes away from the couple and turned towards the dance floor.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMFTpuLcZF
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJLyPrabdm
Hanna stuck near the wall, moving along slowly until she noticed an entrance off the side of the dance floor. There was no door, but the corridor made a sharp turn that she couldn't see past and there was some sign on the wall. It was unreadable from this distance.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DawNkVqez
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9H40tLrql
She moved closer, moving through the crowd. The sign was marked 'Staff Only' so she found a spot to stand with a good view and waited, watching. She knew how to be patient when necessary. She bobbed up in down with the music unconsciously with the rest of the crowd.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRcwO2afeL
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7vxanE8qw
After a while, Hanna thought it was odd that no staff were going in or out. The two men in black shirts by the entrance hadn't moved since they'd gotten there. She suspected there might be something back there that might not be entirely legal. Their back room would be the best spot for the listening device and that seemed to be the most likely spot for it to be. She was sure they could find some way in there, after all, there wasn't even a door.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6zZO8uiqS
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZq1IG6EcJk
Hanna headed off to find her slacker partner. It wasn't a difficult task, Kayla's hot pink and black outfit stood out against the sea of neons and light colours. Hanna found Kayla grinding with a butch drunk woman, enjoying herself thoroughly. Leave it to Kayla to find someone without even trying. Hanna pulled her off her latest potential conquest.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr57KbT7Tz
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUOx61zLdn
"What was that for?" Kayla complained with a pout.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBkyQtUUNX
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FgeP0mgHl
"I think I found the spot." Hanna gestured over to the guarded entrance. "There's guards."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsoYi6Qzru
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlAvY64dlm
"Let's take a look." Kayla's tone turned serious instantly.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsnxfxLasn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWITw4ENkLh
Hanna led Kayla over to the spot she'd been observing from. She watched Kayla's eyes dart over the scene, observing everything critically. Hanna watched as her cousin analyzed the situation.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NcfTHPNuD
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hiqPfMYRq
"Take this." Kayla passed Hanna the bug, a small thin device about the size of a credit card. Hanna slipped it into her purse discretely.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzQ4oKr7tm
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2LODw4g4Z
"What's the plan?" Hanna asked her older cousin.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX2Alf0w38
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY9VKFy8oX
"You sneak in and I'll distract them," Kayla answered briefly.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgmODe96lG
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡth6bdvnDxb
"How?" Hanna asked.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ35XWxhoDOZ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV24Cazmb5
Kayla gestured to her body.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1ks4as1aW
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡok5Ltx55nU
"The guards are male," Hanna stated.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZRj2JiOcn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7sRbnQC20
"So?" Kayla replied with a healthy dose of sass.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqHIJ12Hgy
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQLmigUuLn
"You're gay," Hanna reminded her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ996FXNt8Dy
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfUoYMP117
Kayla scoffed. "Seduction is a gender neutral skill."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiClUbja8y
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2b7OdQILM
Hanna rolled her eyes at her cousin. "You couldn't get a guy to fall for you if your life depended on it."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23NDhIsc4F
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiYu1vwpPu
"Wanna bet?" Kayla smirked as she started walking over to towards the two men, waving and swaying with pretend drunkenness.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFZUHwfsvM
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaQnsum4vd
"No-" Hanna noticed how the guards had already turned their attention to Kayla. She fingered the small electronic device in her purse. She huffed, turning back to get herself lost in the crowd. "Dammit," she muttered.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoLmEce05t
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2DaWoo3Kh
Hanna went to get into her position, reluctantly going along with the plan. She went to circle around to the other side, letting the crowd cover her. She snuck into the hallway easily while Kayla purposefully made a fool of herself.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42qCTe1jW6
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDuWfJLQIl
This part of the building didn't have any club decor and looked older, unrenovated. It might have been an office area for the original warehouse. There were plain, unmarked doors on either side.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHaUt9U0fO
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLZyk4NWE0
Hanna picked the first one. She listened at the door of the room before opening it. It was locked, a good sign. It meant there was something worth locking up. This wouldn't be a problem for her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4Gud320J4
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZ4ebI4Px0
Hanna glanced around, making sure the hallway was still clear, as she pulled out her bump keys. She had the door open in under a minute. She closed the door silently behind her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vhDvsNcV8
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGttT2VQHl
The first thing that hit her was the smell of weed. The bitter, skunky odour trickled into her throat. If there were drugs in here, that would certainly explain the locked door.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7cZz6gmQu
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cvlh1OYmp
There were tables, chairs, a pool table, a television, a sofa and... filing cabinets? The standard tan large office-like filing cabinets looked very out of place in the game room. They were the only thing in there that looked both new and clean.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw0TcV3zKY
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡphNXmVM039
This seemed as good a place as any to drop the bug. Wasting time looking for a better spot would likely end up with her being spotted. She dropped the slim device behind one of the filing cabinets.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwZyqsHGYn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOv2hNOUUA7
Hanna went to open the door just as it swung inwards. She stepped back to avoid getting hit just as a man wearing a black shirt marked 'Staff' came into the room. She was beginning to wonder if you had to be a minimum of six feet tall to work here. The man had at least four inches over her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsFkx95YEo
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbkqInY1Vr
He stopped for a moment, evidently startled, but then his eyes narrowed. "You're not supposed to be in here," he said, slightly confused.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvpZEbDX1f
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcOHI6noyZ
"Hi, I was just looking for the washroom," Hanna said sweetly, in her best ditsy voice. She tried her best to act a bit tipsy.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡir1fYOjCE5
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡORG1ucHxBF
"This door was locked," he stated, even more suspicious now.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcgEU9rSJ6
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMTjEcsW0T
"Oh, whatever." Hanna dropped the ditsy act and swiftly stabbed at his throat. She took the man off guard and the hit left him struggling to breath.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8rs7cWLor
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu84c7VsPTc
Hanna wasted not time with her next move. She threw a strong punch, hitting his temple. He collapsed. Hanna didn't stick around to find out if he'd be getting up.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmifQJE6iFN
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iSiOGxeMS
"I don't care what Kayla says, that line never works." Hanna muttered under her breath as she stepped over his body. Luckily, the hallway was otherwise empty. She quickly slipped out of the restricted area and out onto the main floor with anyone noticing.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiBdl6G2fr
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hlpPOyFOP
Hanna saw Kayla chatting with the guards that had been posted at the entrance. She locked eyes with her cousin and pointed towards the exit, gesturing that they had to leave. Kayla nodded and said something before disappearing into the crowd.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMBYpwDJQ2
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdBAbHGJa7
Hanna dodged her way through the club to get out onto the street. She narrowly avoided getting vodka all over her shirt from a drunk woman who wasn't watching where she was going. Hanna let out a breath in relief as she exited to the street. She immediately starting looking around for Kayla, who was leaning up against her bike. How she had managed to get there ahead of Hanna was a mystery.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSyowe4sVn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjI6F4hIsE
"What happened?" Kayla asked.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zI65Rj2ZC
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieeSbSoTwD
Hanna shrugged dismissively. "I got the bug in there. Some sort of back room with drugs."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J2XsJqL1r
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBGUAnuN5h
"Swell. And I got his number." Kayla grinned as she showed Hanna the back of her hand, covered in black marker. "You lost that bet." She took out a wet wipe and erased it quickly.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHATqjAx0C
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwFcOdb2Kc
"Good thing I didn't actually wager anything then," Hanna shot back.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxDNdOEJjB
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFM2flETsy
"Sore loser." Kayla stuck out her tongue before slipping on her helmet and hopped on the bike. "Your place?"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9OkQhN6ks
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUK0O1w1Tet
Hanna realized she didn't have another mode of transportation and let out a resigned huff. "Let's try not to die on the way back." She put the helmet on and got on behind her cousin again.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyeew8nvnD
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVqUFYfyx5
"You only live once." Kayla revved the motor.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywPY9Zwucj
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyRuIXPW4M
"That's the point!" Hanna retorted as the bike suddenly jerked forward and she found herself clutching on to her cousin for dear life for the second time that night.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUJM2oYD4X
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtK7EzS1Jtn
Despite Hanna's worries, they got back to her second floor apartment alive and uninjured. It would have been embarrassing to end up in the ER from a motorcycle accident when she just took down a man that had a hundred pounds on her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyfAW9emQQ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo2g0UmSma
Kayla walked around the place as Hanna got her laptop set up to connect to the bug. She sat down at the kitchen table in her open plan kitchen slash living room area. She tapped away at the keyboard while her cousin completed her inspection.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI29Z4N5fvl
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQEIlUEdDx
Her nosey cousin didn't waste any time peaking into the bedrooms, of which only one was occupied. Hanna used to have a roommate but she'd moved out a while ago. Hanna had found the convenience of not having to hide her assignments outweighed the extra help with the rent. Between both her jobs, it wasn't like she needed the money anyways.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83QsBF0QiG
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNkiGzZEcJF
Despite living here for years, the tan walls were mostly bare. Hanna had never been one for art or photos. In fact, the only artwork she had, a large motel-like landscape piece, had been left from when she'd moved in. She didn't even have a lot of sentimental items, those were mostly still at her aunt and uncle's home.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qxpGSmzzB
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw4BBljmW6
Kayla came back, closed the curtains on the glass balcony door and flopped on the sofa in front of the TV. "You cleaned," she remarked.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AsSNiKpVF
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb27RzLYsNH
"You've been gone for months, of course I've cleaned," Hanna grumbled. She wasn't a neat freak but she never let her place get too messy either. Not just because Kayla would nag her about it.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNBvTj3O1I
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTrTNhLPOC
Kayla chuckled, starting to flip through the television channels as Hanna finished setting up the connection.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQzu3YGIIB
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIegwVYzm4I
"It's done," Hanna announced.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmO6sNSxsQA
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4awl5rvPk
Kayla clicked off the television. "Let's see if they're talking about us."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogE8PAxemC
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuOmZgoDuh
"Sure," Hanna replied, clicking on the live feed. She did hear some conversation being picked up by the microphone. She turned up the volume.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEZ074mjAS
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBhs3MB9fG
"Deal's on Friday, nothing to do till then."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagBUQgk4Yg
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pysDtbpce
"That's it?"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXeMUsGPomv
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWAPMILAMs
"And keep your eyes peeled for any Charax. You all know what to watch for?"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KnXfNvdxQ
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xEu6HvuPe
Kayla and Hanna shared a quick puzzled look as the conversation kept going.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwBkLv8fj6
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNTntheVF5
"Tremors, sweating-"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkYkF1iqoSU
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhKzpwoclS
"Insane horniness?" Another new voice broke in.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5YvHq0A7Z
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7ndh69aXR
Laughter came through the speaker.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9WuE2g45e
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbgzxtwtmY
"You're laughing now, but you won't be when you see the ID bonus."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFFVtnOjZw
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5zdNCL4se
"How big?"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci9y4DYRsG
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PhDmtQvfk
"More than enough to settle your debts, Terrence."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ME9Zunwpa
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsviN5l7neu
"So yeah, that's it."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIywuxxkBiU
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhEZKVPy8I
The voices turned to mumbles and Hanna muted the sound, the bug would keep recording and save the audio for later. "Why would they be looking for Charax in a club?" Hanna asked, dumbfounded.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbaF7BbQ5fO
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Krg8LfEHC
"Maybe they came to Earth to party?" Kayla suggested jokingly.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2KzsmutV3
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AO9vX10Kj
"I think the super advanced space humans have discovered nightclubs, Kayla," Hanna said sarcastically.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6bur5Lp8p
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ297H5Hb2sj
"Maybe they're looking for a hookup?" Kayla shot out another guess.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJVinaSrby
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VLm5hfg9B
"So... acting like completely normal humans in a club. Doesn't seem like the best way to smoke them out," Hanna remarked.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1pF5TDf2o
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpdlG3b8Jt
"You know the males get all..." Kayla made an incomprehensible gesture.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAp84RRyMo
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsJw8J6Qtp
"Huh?" Hanna gave her a confused look and waved her hand randomly to mock her cousin's actions. "What's that supposed to mean?"86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVyLjZfMPn
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32OSUzaIBn
Kayla huffed. "Horny, that was obviously horny. You know, when Charax men go into their heat cycle."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNkJtUtm3f
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGzhrgYIfU
Hanna raised an eyebrow. The heat cycles started in their twenties, they were all adults that had been hiding for years. Seems like they'd have a better way to deal with it by then rather than showing up at a club hoping for a one night stand without getting outed. "I think they'd be smart enough to avoid the clubs."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhY7fsuRUUg
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueTskWRnJK
"Well, maybe they get a little too desperate and a bit too stupid," Kayla suggested. "Still, Charax are really rare and hard to find."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKrp6BivzY
86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkM6iqkHloR
"Yeah, so rare that the official stance is there that aren't any left hiding in the general population," Hanna argued.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTByrdMnRY

"We know that's all a lie. They're rare but they're still here. Mostly second or third generation, but just as valuable," Kayla reminded her.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8rXP0Ypo8

Hanna tapped her fingers against the table in thought. "It's not like they're easy to find though, they look exactly like the rest of us. It's like hunting for a needle in a haystack."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoymKqJNYq
Kayla let out a hum of agreement. "But it only takes one, then they've got a huge payday. Cut up and sold off, plus whatever they can harvest, they might be able to net over a hundred million.” She paused, then added, “if they play their cards right."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJ8TDzbmDg

Hanna stopped her tapping. "That's a good point. It's not like they're only going to use the club as a hunting ground either."86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRtiEuRfBi

Kayla smiled at Hanna as she got up. "I'm sure we'll get something juicy out of this. Good work tonight," she said, heading towards the door.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANnVBabtYa

"Will do!" Kayla called from the doorway.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfF7fvpDY4

Hanna heard the door close and started shutting down the laptop. She was tired and energized at all once. It felt good to be back in the game.86Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTjlOAyzqo
