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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBgM0480fe
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfxJl1UUqj
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANiU1xbHP1
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b5awzYlPL
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sUJHEyMU9
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqOZY6qY4g
"Here we are," Kayla announced, tapping her arm lightly. "You can open your eyes now."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmHpad3HG3G
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NhJv0FOzC
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsIlLbqki3
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJfNH3eEtM
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu24NuJ6fm
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynpGh5qJsk
"Nice hairdo, you look like you'll fit right in," Hanna commented.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKeLcZaxVz
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWapHoLBQl8
"Thanks, a mission always starts right with the right outfit." Kayla winked at her jokingly.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFCey7dyI6
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJZJqdaOvd
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iL3y3XiYE
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5W9VHfAGb6
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxZcDW8ore
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyK5IvJVXM
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbFqjkI4YN
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztujuzTaUy
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8l011Ll5k
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBMr3DuYjA
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBPF8JJ1X7
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssLqnmGAHg
"I hope this place is worth the cover," Hanna remarked, looking at the downtrodden exterior.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6Kw5pkoPA
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡml8X7k9bYI
"Oh, we'll get our money's worth." Kayla chuckled.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXrXNOqs8pp
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvRTAkW0jR
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8tlIJ0dxh
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIWV1ujBXd
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTSbEUBkWO
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYnhG83Qhl
"I'm twenty five, I shouldn't be getting carded," Hanna complained.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBdYJxk2fv
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtojLPWVeIM
"Says the one who started forging her own fake IDs at fifteen," Kayla teased.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaGGhwlhzZM
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlfaTlh86z
"It's not like that was to get into bars," Hanna added.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAnggmm3Vq
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tQ40GsaTI
Kayla gave her a skeptical look. As they walked further inwards, the sound of the music grew louder.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP1wCt4DGG
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAhk9WbIgp
"Okay, maybe one bar," Hanna admitted.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObbYc26Glv
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfV1v4mPcSH
Kayla laughed. "You would have gotten caught too if my mom hadn't caught you first."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHnnHjPtyT
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL6lY6hldZ
"I've gotten better since then," Hanna argued.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jRpsZQ8j2
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjFXeiqFe1
"I know, I taught you." Kayla smiled back.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjG7FqNNW9q
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlthDWeJrd
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqIHbtOuh5
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jEYPDCfii
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTeRr3Y873
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ScOOUUm6X
"Where do we look first?" Hanna asked.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJdCx3mKt1
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bNKowbwRz
"The dance floor," Kayla replied energetically, smiling.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4AKxyLC2w
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62aPwwKdRv
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMX4LcyzOp
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKRrhrjWlX
Kayla scoffed at her cousin's attitude. "Uh, we have the whole night for that. Have some fun!"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnAi1EeYop
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Xtqz0z5Ot
"We're not here for fun," Hanna reminded her seriously.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kJeVuD45D
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNqcoJKxGH
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyfJ5JBdXC
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC55qA3pHhI
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwyYstfHmI
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bo5YF5NgO
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWmI8m3poD
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxyi5AgG93
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWy7REfP4JK
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYF0UI3OXR
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZ652Coed7
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgO2jvUEI0S
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYepcVUsns
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrCZcORXZg
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2uJ7vJqju
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72ey2DU75b
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qINp90ihP
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0eo3mMQKy
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyVENkZUe8
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKFQ3VSxK4
"What was that for?" Kayla complained with a pout.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXUWSMsazo
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ103pxo1g
"I think I found the spot." Hanna gestured over to the guarded entrance. "There's guards."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ8iebA2Px
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNItkGkorCA
"Let's take a look." Kayla's tone turned serious instantly.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDP8u5eej9h
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEPyamqAYF
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaNbL8Ox0k
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAANcnWAizn
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueJYtzUgyy
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtNDZMRTnP
"What's the plan?" Hanna asked her older cousin.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySXEk1su45
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvBDecTFjR
"You sneak in and I'll distract them," Kayla answered briefly.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnU7CREbUl
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uGYuRaNOy
"How?" Hanna asked.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1BsEjxceq
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8fwdPbICL
Kayla gestured to her body.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBN3bvOnUh
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe16QhlNST
"The guards are male," Hanna stated.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIFtP6ZLhd
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡris5lz50cG
"So?" Kayla replied with a healthy dose of sass.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKTCitM5PW
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZ0PPQw6rE
"You're gay," Hanna reminded her.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JqsXGp8Rw
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwbWtdmVCu
Kayla scoffed. "Seduction is a gender neutral skill."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDVST39sRR
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXnqgDn83a
Hanna rolled her eyes at her cousin. "You couldn't get a guy to fall for you if your life depended on it."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hg3qEVhY2
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0os7ZqiHFx
"Wanna bet?" Kayla smirked as she started walking over to towards the two men, waving and swaying with pretend drunkenness.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYy5gfBLoD
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCgge8T4ov
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGnL5MtDUY
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5vUyZB1oP
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfpqy7bEvx
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzUod5bSAT
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OQEJplzty
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoBAr7FPMM
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITOqYjQAgE
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjVjULFHRD
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyOrvg1M1B
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpGD08nNJV
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOHkXM35FY
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DinqVDPuO
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0nrD9ZJMb
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZ9SU5Ybvr
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMk8vKzaGd5
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09CuvaQhRO
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewx2Zu460A
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdQj4phHKG
He stopped for a moment, evidently startled, but then his eyes narrowed. "You're not supposed to be in here," he said, slightly confused.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOftl50w5ll
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pu5epbCR6
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQoPW4Gvep
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztXIlp9ylq
"This door was locked," he stated, even more suspicious now.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R3ohxZxiZ
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODidUrMQ57
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh14dw5BmIg
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsBNqSDIqG
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqeesoD09c
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOAxTytnMt
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lbhu7Gtkd
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHhOgi1H8H
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrhR6Bn2OH
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3Ovuk1WNe
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2E41yFuaU
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxzyw1NHwa
"What happened?" Kayla asked.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibNUOYYM6t
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXA0QcbxVu
Hanna shrugged dismissively. "I got the bug in there. Some sort of back room with drugs."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXw572SHlC
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEkWqX5FuO
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GblcOZZkE
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjsFePM4DB
"Good thing I didn't actually wager anything then," Hanna shot back.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZw62n0saw
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLOLQoBqj6
"Sore loser." Kayla stuck out her tongue before slipping on her helmet and hopped on the bike. "Your place?"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR246Boyay1
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0O4ATkpmpu
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MqBOWvCil
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3I3lGy4RF
"You only live once." Kayla revved the motor.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEOjpjxyXq
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc2x8QUZXX
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAktuBO0iA
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagGetQPdj
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvyNZD123p
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgrkx9Yanr
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0CYPfZtTh
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtUU68v38f
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ4Wl3uGVX
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBq9Icmcgd
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSiGsLiKY7
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8T4Jag4CK
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYURVXH4Hg
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBiW8GSP2h
"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrkpZmSSS6
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHPvL1AZJX
Kayla chuckled, starting to flip through the television channels as Hanna finished setting up the connection.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Zd7RpCY19
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhePzPfrem
"It's done," Hanna announced.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6iAckvmvQ
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5rqtvax5j
Kayla clicked off the television. "Let's see if they're talking about us."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08RJZkMu24
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNZStEBML9
"Sure," Hanna replied, clicking on the live feed. She did hear some conversation being picked up by the microphone. She turned up the volume.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FZxkVBODJ
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIp8NkUeYMe
"Deal's on Friday, nothing to do till then."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzg79yH5kyT
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lf8Z6X5p3
"That's it?"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GJQR5Cx4E
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV10bAxMyD
"And keep your eyes peeled for any Charax. You all know what to watch for?"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnbB5fpzvG
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVAYds89Vd
Kayla and Hanna shared a quick puzzled look as the conversation kept going.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP8F0JCr3V
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxnlrUJWmB
"Tremors, sweating-"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4yuhz0ezE
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbTVl8W9yP
"Insane horniness?" Another new voice broke in.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQDfb2fKMo
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kfdkVSCql
Laughter came through the speaker.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjcepXPS21
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWvErVgh2C
"You're laughing now, but you won't be when you see the ID bonus."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUROflHtxJj
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhhfd6GoD1
"How big?"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1EC5huLuw
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2cPoTbKox
"More than enough to settle your debts, Terrence."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gllDiJ84Y
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOjsyClv0B
"So yeah, that's it."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡim15oZZyKK
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ECjjSNTWW
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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLAOFZCfZ6
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiv3ZzfAgI
"Maybe they came to Earth to party?" Kayla suggested jokingly.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkC7h3D6BC
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuHwE2zqvyw
"I think the super advanced space humans have discovered nightclubs, Kayla," Hanna said sarcastically.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFs7ISGH9Kw
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFG0FPl8FXf
"Maybe they're looking for a hookup?" Kayla shot out another guess.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXPCpYNwNp
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPq3EFGCKY
"So... acting like completely normal humans in a club. Doesn't seem like the best way to smoke them out," Hanna remarked.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz5a9qzlRP
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkpbPwWMPf
"You know the males get all..." Kayla made an incomprehensible gesture.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSLZijSdIh
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aOs5znRQw
"Huh?" Hanna gave her a confused look and waved her hand randomly to mock her cousin's actions. "What's that supposed to mean?"65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrwnP289vC
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX41im5ZNSA
Kayla huffed. "Horny, that was obviously horny. You know, when Charax men go into their heat cycle."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH48hmtUoi
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeSbPP0R19
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."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kBrV1kN5o
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD66NrWM0Cs
"Well, maybe they get a little too desperate and a bit too stupid," Kayla suggested. "Still, Charax are really rare and hard to find."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5q1tW2bHP
65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaesGTfICU
"Yeah, so rare that the official stance is there that aren't any left hiding in the general population," Hanna argued.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXOpvKF3GT

"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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuftAblxgb3

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."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9TMWjyJdI
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."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDy97SpTcm

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."65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEMGSC9D0J

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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8d8JN10voD

"You too. Call me when you've got your next one?" Hanna asked hopefully.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFgupbQU8D

"Will do!" Kayla called from the doorway.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HJtLb6nfE

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.65Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89Ar7y2pk0
