Chapter 13: Triple Trouble

Scene changed to outside the Orlando airport, Dario was with Seth who gave him money for the trophy hunts back at Southeast Africa.

Dario: Thanks Seth.

Seth: By the way where are Smith and Victor?

Dario: Oh they couldn't make it because...

His left pupil traced to behind one of the airport pillars behind Seth. Sprinter was hiding and she motioned her hands for Dario to think of a lie.

Dario: Because one of the trophies Muteesa trampled them to death. They're currently in a morgue at a hospital in Zambia.

Seth: Oh, that's unfortunate.

The cheetah raised her fist with a smirk.

Dario: And plus I'll be honest, when you send me to hunt somewhere. I rather go alone.

Seth: Oh, why's that?

Dario: Smith and Victor weren't the nicest people and tended to push me around for being younger and inexperienced as them.

Seth: Ha, I see. Well I'll say that karma caught up with them. Anywhoo, you're free for the next two days.

Dario: Great and btw where's the next place I gotta hunt?

Seth: Oh, it's close it's right here actually. At the Everglades.

Dario: Huh? That's sweet!

Seth: Well I better get going. I'm going to send Marcus to Thailand next. Cya.

Dario: Bye!

And with that Seth left inside his limo and it drove off.

Sprinter came out.

Sprinter: That's your boss? Man he just shrugged off those bitches like nothing, and didn't bother asking about me huh?

Dario: Well I just told him that quote on quote "I want a trophy of my own just one, and he didn't mind with it too"

Sprinter: Not gonna lie, he's a great boss.

Dario: Yeah, not only he gave me a fuck ton of cash he also gave me a two day off before going to hunt again.

Sprinter: Yeah, you got a great boss meatsack.

She placed her hands on her hips.

Sprinter: So, when am I gonna meet these other harem girls of yours?

Dario: Oh you will, come on we're not far off from the house.

He was walking and soon the cheetah followed.

Sprinter: Walking huh? Man if I weren't hurt I could just grab you and sprint us to where you live.

Dario: Sadly.

Sprinter: But hey, as long as you're in my life I won't complain.

Dario smiled at her.

Dario: Btw you feeling sleepy? Cause I feel jetlagged from the flight.

Sprinter: Nope. I slept during the entire flight.

Dario: Well... I just wanna hit the bed when we get home.

"Meanwhile"

Hurricane was in the backyard as she sat on one of the benches and rested herself.

Banny then came by.

Banny: Hey Hurri.

Hurricane: Oh hey Ban, how's the leg?

Banny: I'm feeling better. Also it's been 2 days since Dario left for Africa.

Hurricane: He sure is taking his time, I bet them animals are hard to hunt down.

Banny: Mhm... I miss him...

Then they heard the door being unlocked.

Dario came in.

Dario: Girls! I'm home!

They came inside and saw Dario, with Sprinter.

Banny: Dario!

She ran to hug and the latter hugged the red wolf back.

Hurricane meanwhile was eyeing Sprinter who did the same.

Hurricane: Hey Dar, is this a new girl for your harem?

Dario: Yes. Sprinter this is Banny and that is Hurricane. And this is Sprinter.

Banny: Hi! Nice to meet you!

She extended her hand to which Sprinter shook it.

Sprinter: Nice to meet you.

Hurricane approached her.

Hurricane: What kind of animal are you supposed to be?

Sprinter: A cheetah.

Hurricane: Never heard of it.

Sprinter: Of course you don't, I'm literally from a different continent.

Hurricane: Well welcome to North America, you'll get used to it. Anyways how was hunting going and how'd ya meet her.

Dario then sat on the couch and extended his arms.

Dario: Well I was put on a hunting team, they claimed to be veterans at their job despite the fact I had to carry their asses, then they ditched me.

Sprinter joined in and sat beside the hunter.

Sprinter: I saw him kill an elephant, I tried to eat him and-

Banny/Hurricane: YOU WHAT?!?

Sprinter: Hey hey, I wasn't finished. I said I "tried" but he tastes bad. My kind don't like human meat tho.

Banny: Oh, ok.

Hurricane narrowed her gaze, untrusting of the cheetah.

Sprinter: After that we managed to hunt down whatever was on the list, his dumb hunting buddies came by and smooth talked their way to him but I got up and killed them for ditching Dario here.

She carassed his cheek with her left hand, Dario placed a hand on her lap.

Hurricane: So you're saying that you tried to eat him, but then saved him?

Dario: Yeah, I even told Seth that I prefer to hunt alone from now on after having to endure those troglodytes.

Banny: That seems fair.

Dario yawned.

Dario: Then I had to buy a fake passport for Sprinty here so I could take her here to live with us.

Sprinter: And as you can see he's tired, he said that he's jetlagged.

Banny: What does that mean?

Dario: Tired after flight... *yawn*

He got up.

Dario: Listen, I'm gonna go and lie down for a bit. Just please don't cause any trouble nor make a mess. If you don't then I tomorrow I promise to take us all somewhere to have fun. All four of us.

Banny: Really?!

Dario: Mhm...

He kissed Banny first, Hurricane second and Sprinter third.

Sprinter: Sleep well, meatsack~.

Hurricane: Cya later big guy.

Dario left upstairs to sleep in his room.

They heard the door shut.

Hurricane turned to the cheetah who was confused.

Sprinter: Yeah?

Hurricane approached her.

Hurricane: Meatsack huh?

Sprinter: It's not offensive, it's basically my playful nickname that I gave to him. He doesn't mind it.

Hurricane: And not also that, you tried to eat him.

Sprinter: I tried but I didn't!

Hurricane grabbed her by the tracksuit collar.

Hurricane: If I see you hurt him, I will kick you into next Tuesday.

Sprinter: Ohoho, you think I'm scared?

Banny: Girls!

She got in between them.

Banny: Let's not fight, all because of a nickname?

Sprinter: Listen to the wolf, Hurricane. She's wishing you the best for your well-being.

Hurricane let's go of the cheetah trophy.

Hurricane: I got my eye on you.

She then left.

Sprinter stuck out her tongue as she watched the ram leave.

Banny: She's usually nice but is hot tempered and can act a bit tomboyish.

Sprinter: I can tell Banny, thanks.

Banny: No problem, just don't cause a ruckus or anything.

The cheetah nods as the wolf left.

Banny: Hey btw are you hungry?

Sprinter: Sure what kind of meat do you guys have?

Banny: Oh you eat meat? Well I'll check.

She went to the freezer and pulled out a piece of meat.

Banny: Well there is but it's frozen.

Sprinter got up and walked to her.

Sprinter: Well, we can melt it. How do you use this thing?

She then eyed a microwave.

Banny: Oh that's easy, just put inside and set up the timer.

She did as she said and put the meat.

Sprinter: Ok how much time should I set it it?

Banny: Around 7 minutes.

And it was set in 7 minutes.

Sprinter: Alright, the ice will melt. Meanwhile I'm gonna try and kill some time, wanna join?

Banny: In a bit, I have to use the rest room. Go outside at the pool or something.

She left in a hurry, Sprinter shrugged and went outside in the backyard.

Sprinter: Wow, this pool is like that lake back in Zambia in terms of size.

She noticed Hurricane resting on one of the benches, she then looked at the pool and then back at the sheep.

She had an evil smirk.

She took off her tracksuit jacket, leaving her most of her pale skin being exposed. She took off her sneaks and socks.

As Hurricane was resting, she heard a splash and water splattered all over her.

Hurricane: Ahhh!

She opened her eyes to see Sprinter who was in the pool.

Sprinter: What?

Hurricane: You did that splash on purpose didn't you?

Sprinter: Nope, even if I did I'm sorry. After all, I'm new and I'll adapt. I'm a quick learner once you get to know me better.

Hurricane had an angry poker face.

Hurricane: Sure...

Sprinter: And btw. Why do you dress like that?

Hurricane: What's wrong with my clothes?

Sprinter: You look like a hobo.

The sheep felt offended.

Hurricane: At least I don't look like I'm pale as fucking stale milk.

Sprinter: Oh so you clapped back, congrats. Say where are your horns? Aren't you supposed to be a ram, oh are you just limited to looking like some homeless person.

Hurricane: What about that tail of yours, and those red marks of yours will make people think your some self-violence victim and mistake that shit for blood. And sorry missy, Bloody Mary ain't real and you trying to be like her will make everyone want to poke fun at you.

Sprinter: At least I wear a fucking bra, unlike you.

Hurricane: At least I didn't come back in bandages.

Sprinter: I'm a fast recovering girl, I'm faster than any competition. You're just a slow poke, no wonder wolves and whatever is out there get to your ass. When you meet hyenas and wild dogs, they're gonna rip you to shreds like piranhas.

Hurricane: Bitch please, cougars can put your ass to shame. Sure they might not be fast but they make up for the muscle, one swipe and you're done.

Sprinter smirked.

Sprinter: At least I don't try to act like a boy. You must feel really far off from reality to think you're actually one!

Hurricane: You take that back!

Sprinter: Make me.

Hurricane got up and jumped into the pool, Sprinter swam away as the sheep followed after her.

Sprinter: Can't catch me!

Hurricane: Grrr...

She jumped and landed ontop of the cheetah and were underwater.

They emerged out of the water, Hurricane got a hold of the cheetah's hair on one hand while the other was to her neck. Meanwhile Sprinter had her left hand pressed to the sheep's right eye and the other one to her poncho.

They were bickering, but then Banny came to the scene running and saw them fight.

Banny: Girls stop!

The voice of the red wolf made the two turn to her.

The scene changed to the three of them sitting on chairs with a table between them.

Hurricane and Sprinter both had towels around them as they didn't stare at one another.

Banny: Girls this is getting ridiculous, not even an hour and you two can't get along. You're acting like children.

Hurricane then looked at her.

Hurricane: She started it all.

Sprinter: Alright I'll come clean, I did.

Banny: Why?

Sprinter: One word, sarcasm. It's both a gift and a curse.

Hurricane: I'd say it's more of a curse.

Sprinter: Same can be said for your tomboyish behavior.

Hurricane: Why you-

Banny raised a hand and stopped both.

Banny: You two are getting out of hand.

She pointed up at the ceiling.

Banny: That man up there brought you girls to live together, not tear each other apart.

She had a reassuring smile.

Banny: I know we're all different but he loves us all. All three of us.

They both looked at her and then at one another.

Banny: One is headstrong, the other is fast and snarky, I'm now trying to act as the voice of reason and I will remind you both that our man is up there sleeping after a long journey.

She then pointed to the cheetah.

Banny: A journey that involved you being brought here.

And then the red wolf turned to the sheep.

Banny: And he drove to Wyoming so he could bring you here.

She then grabbed both their hands.

Banny: Can't we all just coexist? We may seem different but we all share a common interest. And that is Dario himself, how many times has he shown his affection and appreciation to us?

Hurricane: A lot...

Sprinter sighed.

Sprinter: Because of him I got nursed and am here.

Banny nods with a smile.

Banny: Then let's bury the hatchet and get along. After all he's gonna take us somewhere tomorrow.

The cheetah smiled.

Sprinter: Fine, plus let's let him rest up after coming back from Africa.

Hurricane: Ya, it tired the big guy out.

Banny was happy and got up to hug the two. Hurricane smiled back, Sprinter rolled her eyes and tried to play like she didn't care but she smiled at her.

The scene changed to Dario's room. He was still asleep and was in his pajamas, but then the bedroom door opened.

Inside came in the three trophies.

Hurricane: Look at him sleeping peacefully.

Sprinter: Back when we were in Africa, I slept on his lap. He himself lied me there.

Banny: Lucky you.

She slowly approached the bed and lied down, she hugged the hunter and closed her eyes.

Hurricane: Well come on Sprints, aren't you gonna join?

She rested as well and hugged the sleeping male from behind.

Sprinter smirked and approached the bed, she lied down and hugged Dario's waist and rested her head on his lap.

Sprinter's mind: Oh I'm gonna like it here, and Hurricane... get ready for some competition girl!
