Chapter 7 Newcomer's?
You went to go find Alena she looked slightly annoyed, you wonder what going on with her, you find her in the living room on the couch. You go over and sit next to her...is she blushing?
Alena: Good your here...
She seems to be hiding something in her coat...witch confused you as it was a little warm to have a coat...
(Y/N): Yeah so what did you did you need to talk about?
There was a moment of silence before a muffled meow could be heard in her coat... OH now it made more sense to you and Alena got the fuzz ball of too cute out of her coat.
Alena: Can we keep her... I always wanted a cat sense I was a little girl and when I went to go get water late at night I heard something at the door and it was outside in the cold, I didn't know what to do at the time so I figured I keep it in my room for the night.
The cat the got in your lap and and nuzzles you chest, it felt strange you felt like this cat was something else entirely like its smart like a person or maybe, what ever it is its clearly like you alot.
Alena: Aww she likes you what should we name her?
A name just popped into your head out of nowhere but you thought it fit for this blue eyed black cat.
(Y/N): Alice I think we'll name here Alice
Alena was surprised that you named here quickly Alice does seem to fit her though. Alice was influencing your chooses a tad though she didn't want them calling her by another name but hers besides if push comes to shove she will warn then if Victor Red is coming and gets to be by the cute boy that she's growing fond of as your petting her in all the right ways.
Zofia: Did I hear that right Alena likes cats?
She said in a teasing manner and Alena was flustered at the sudden blue bird behind her.
Alena: And what wrong about wanting a cat?!
Zofia giggled a bit but it wasn't a hurtful giggle.
Zofia: Nothing I was just teasing you, but I wonder what Clare will think if she sees a cat thats on four cute feet.
Rose then comes down the stairs and sees the cat on your lap and was confused.
Rose: Um... what is... That?
Alena was a bit puzzled until she realises that most people never seen cats after the war. They were kinda rare to see because they either went Feral or were killed by her so called kin. she kinda hated her own kind or at lest the loyalist after she saw on kill one and eat it like it was some type of food source needless to say that man is no longer alive.
Alena: Its a cat...but not like the Mobby's, there feral ones too but there nearly extinct due to my kinds savagery...and she was just out there alone and I always wanted one since I was a child but my father wouldn't let me have one, but its not like he was against the idea of having one...he was just trying to make sure we were safe...
Alena looked sad after she brought up her father and Rose looked like she felt bad after thinking she caused Alena to being up bad memories or at least what she think was bad memories, but before she could say she was sorry Lisy and Olivla come down the stairs and sees the cute cat on your lap
Olivla: *gasp* Its so cute!
She looked at the cuteness on you lap witch a joyful glee Lisy however what staring into space until she heard a meow from Alice...who was just really confused at all the people just popping out of nowhere by was content with being in your lap and was staring in awe of the cute furry thing in your lap like she just seen a cat for the first time.
Lisy: What's that furry ball of cuteness?
Zofia then sighed as if she knew that Lisy seen something like this before.
Zofia: It's a cat you have seen one before Lisy remember when we were in a alley and a furry fluff ball came up and stole someones gold necklace right from their neck?
You wonder who someone trained a cat to do that and have the patience to do so.
Lisy: But that one was super fluffy this ones not that fluffy but its still cute.
Alice was still being petted by not by you you look to see a grey furry hand petting Alice you then looked up to see Clare petting her, when everyone but Lisy who was to focused on the cuteness on your lap, they stared for a bit until your speak up
(Y/N): Hi Clare when did you get here?
You asked she then cocked her head to the side a bit.
Clare: I've been here since you and Alena sat down...and I now what a cat is, I use to feed some of them scraps of food when I was a kid
Alena and Rose didn't looked surprised that she seemingly came out of nowhere, but Olivla and Zofia did, however Lisy was just spacing out again to notice and she pulls out a small book in her pocket and continues from where she left off you guess... or maybe it's her diary or something you got no idea. As to how you didn't notice her you were to focus on how a cat got on this planet in the first place was she a stray on the ship the girls came from? Before you could question further the doorbell rang and then the cat got into Alena lap to Alena's gle so you get up and open the door thinking its Terry... Or god forbid Adam because he had a chewing out of his own coming, but it was Midnight...Wait a minute why was the ex wife of Adam doing here?
Midnight: Hello (Y/N) how have you been lately?
You were confused she only had two guards there and they looked like there worried so you left them in.
(Y/N): Fine, but might I ask why you came here?
You said politely not because of the two guards who looked nervous when looking at you (Probably because of your reputation) but because it was the nice thing to do when a guest is in your home, Midnight was a Loups like Adam, but she had black fur and red eyes witch again like Rose's eyes were a rare trait though not one of royalty but one of power, and she was also pretty as always.
Midnight: Ah yes of course I came here seeking a place to hide from the Loyalist assassins not like they can kill me easily though.
Midnight might not look it but she just as scary as you when it comes down to it she probably didn't need bodyguards but she had to have them it kind came with the job of being the chairman for the Loups in the Council. There always a representative for every one of the races in the Council.
(Y/N): What did you do to make them want to kill you so bad?
You ask casually because you were good friends with her all though she always flirted with you time and again after she broke up with Adam, she didn't have a accent like most of the Loups...witch Rose didn't have one either because how she was raised. Makes you think where she was raised but nonetheless she's here.
Midnight: Oh you know... Declaring war on the Loyalists.
You and everyone else was floored by this why would she do this, Alena spoke out.
Alena: Why would you do something so riskey?! Don't get me wrong there nothing but greddy men and women, but why risk your life for it?!
Before the bodyguards could say anything Midnight spoke
Midnight: because something came up that only (Y/N) needs to know...oh and if you boys think you could take her on she killed more men than you at the age of 12 so I wouldn't if I were you.
Midnight basily gave them the death stare and the guards tensed up.
Bodyguard 1: S-sorry!
Bodyguard 2: I-it won't happen again!
Midnight then sighed and gave a gesture for them to go somewhere else to witch they followed without hesitation.
(Y/N): You girls should good too
All the girls nodded...well except Lisy who was to focused on her book. Zofia then poked her shoulder and told her to come upstairs for a bit to witch she agreed, but before Rose and Alena could leave they got glared at by Midnight. Alice knew that glare too well after all Alice knows Midnight knows that she was that cat nothing can seem to get past her she wouldn't be much of a chairman if she didnt know everything Including her friend.
Midnight: You two say here.
Alena then looked worried and Rose looked like she was on the verge of freaking out. How did she know that they knew what was going on.
Midnight: As you know I'm being hunted by the Loyalist and their allies, that said something came up that I hoped never would have happened.
You couldn't shake the feeling that something was really off. The air seemed to be really wrong because your old wounds are aching and Alena and Rose knew something about it.
Midnight: I know you girls know whats up but I gotta tell him something first. I'll be under the J.R.T protection from now on and seeing that the last assassination attempt was yesterday-
Before she could continue you spoke.
(Y/N): Wait yesterday?! How frequent are these attempts?
Midnight the sighed and continued.
Midnight: Every day, it's even messing with my sleep. I can't go two steps without Bodyguards and I also hear that two .50 caliber weapons and a whole box of really well crafted knives went missing...tell me would you know something about that?
She asked as if your to blame for that she was kinda right you told her about your "chat" with Terry over that phone and out on your lawn she chucked at that, she knew Terry was the one who got it but she didn't think he would actually do it.
Midnight: Good lord I knew Terry did it. I just didn't expect you to chew him out regardless, But I might have to give him a peace of my mind later. Girls come over her and sit down I won't bite...much...
She said that last bit as a tease but they were behind you like you were the only thing standing between them and the demon of a lady in front of you, but when she told them to sit they followed without fail, Alena listening to her superior and Rose scared out of her mind.
(Y/N): Should I get glasses for this next part I feel like i'm not gonna be very unhappy after you tell me what these two were hiding when I talked to them yesterday
Midnight looked elated at that remark.
Midnight: Please I had not had a drink in ages the was not suspected of being poisoned.
With that you get up and go to your pantry that was filled with all sorts of alcohol and pick out Midnight favorite wine "White Wolf" its a strong, good tasting wine that was made with white grapes native to the Orms home world and that was name after a video game character and 4 wine glasses and walked back and sat back down, and you pour out 2 glasses and was about to pour our the third but Alena and Rose waved there hand. To witch Midnight remarked.
Midnight: Fine by me, just mean I'll have more.
With that you just sit the bottle down thinking it will be empty by the time this is over and took a sip of your drink, it was nice and smooth as most wines are now a-days and started the conversation.
(Y/N): Now then what do I need to know.
You said and Midnight looked worried for a minute. Not a good sign.
Midnight: Adam went missing and Terry wont answer my calls, something doesn't feel right I know those to can handle them self's, but something tells me that this time's not the case.
She said as seriously as can be, then she continues.
Midnight: And last I heard from Adam he said he felt like he was being watched and I don't know were Terry is, but I know he's more safer than Adam right now.
You want to inform her that Terry should call you later today but couldn't get anything out when Alena And Rose Spoke up.
Alena: That's strange because Terry was called by Adam when we we're on the ship here I couldn't make anything out though, all I know is something that Adam said shocked him.
Rose was trying her best to keep her mouth shut about Victer Red. Who knows what you might do if you find out.
Rose: That and the rest of the way here he seemed more on edge then he was before the call.
Midnight looked interested, she knows there holding back something, before she could tell them to talk to her privately after this talk Rose spoke.
Rose: Witch is why I will explain in detail after this talk in private of course, I feel it necessary as Adam was is the only reason for being here.
Alena looked at Rose and she looked back at her, Alena sighed knowing Rose just took a bullet for her and she knows Rose will tell her what they know.
Midnight: Very well. I must say Adam picked someone with a good head on there shoulders, and Alena was it? you can go if you wish.
Alena then nodded taking the hint she would leave and did so, and then you spoke up
(Y/N): So are we going to be your bodyguards from now on?
Rose felt like something was off, but it wasn't from you or Midnight as it felt like there's a murderous presence watching them. You and Midnight gave an look of understanding to her as if not to give away that you know, she could also see Alena out of the corner of her eye. all three of you had a dark look in your eyes and Rose was scared but hid it well.
Midnight: Yes that's correct. As of now the J.R.T will be under my orders and charged with dealing with various things.
You, Midnight, and Alena can count three of them one in the kitchen, one in the study, and one outside and you could also see the bodyguards body's outside..."damn good men too" Midnight would think after seeing the look in your eye telling her that her bodyguards are dead and you spoke as though nothing was wrong.
(Y/N): Well them you got your hands full huh, I haven't even gotten the chance to train my soldier's yet.
It seems your uninvited were waiting for an opportunity to attack without you knowing and there bad at hiding it from you and the other. Meaning that there bounty hunter's and bad one's too.
Midnight: I know it short notice but with recent events it can't be helped, still though while I am here I could go for some reading if you have a book here.
It also seems that there stupid to because they didn't budge after she said that Alena was going to take the one in the kitchen and Midnight was going to handle the on in the study, we'll you have the one outside.
(Y/N): I have a study by the stairs. There are plenty there, I'm sorry to cut it short but the flowers need to be watered.
Alena then enter the kitchen and nothing but a quiet thud could be heard, looks like that one's going to be questioned later. Meaning you and Midnight are free to..."clean up the rest". As you get up and reach the door you open it really fast the bounty hunter got hit by the door and tried to reach for his suppressed gun witch he couldn't find in his holsters it was in your hands aimed at his head as you looked at him with the eyes of a killer.
Loup Bounty Hunter: Wai-!
Before he could finish what he was saying a single shot was barely heard. Great now you have a hole in you porch.
Meanwhile in the study...
Midnight was wondering why Alice was doing here as she made he way father in to the study with the unfortunate victim tailing her, but before the bounty hunter could seal the deal he lost her. she was standing right in front of him a second ago, but now she's gone, but before he could react his neck was turned 180 degree's. Now he's head was backwards and was dead instantly as he fell to the floor. She missed the old days of doing the mission yourself. Now see had to deal with people who think fighting is below them... they however are very wrong.
Back to Rose and Alice...
Rose wonders what to do but she still had that feeling of an evil presence and before she could do anything she had a blade at her throat.
Hodad bounty hunter: Don't move girl.
She couldn't even if she wanted to something scared her... The cat told her Yes told her to stay still. She knew that cat was different. She knew what a cat was but she knew that Alice was not a normal cat by the way she felt.
Hodad bounty hunter: Now wh-
The blade was dropped into Rose lap as something was choking him to the point were his eyes were bulging out of his head, she looked to see a Mobby with a blue jacket and pure black clothes, she had blue eyes and black fur with blue stripes she was currently choking the bounty hunter with...her tail?! How strong she she?
Alice: Thanks for the distraction miss...?
Rose then responded.
Rose: Rose...Rose Madana
Alice then gave a sly smile.
Alice: Well then that a pretty name, nice to meet you Rose.
As she ended her sentence the sounds of her tails grip getting tighter and then a sickening crack could be heard as she breaks the man's neck with her tail. As she does this Midnight gets back from the study looking at Alice like she already knew who she was.
Midnight: Thanks for keeping her save Alice.
Alice then sighed.
Alice: No problem, after all the Hodad girl asked me too.
Midnight looked surprised to hear that Alena knew what she was.
Midnight: And how did she know?
Alice just looked at her and told her bluntly.
Alice: I told her.
And the a thud could be heard as Midnight practically hit her over the head and Alice reverted back into her cat form holding her head (That now has an anime bump on it).
Alice: Ow why did you do that?!
(Alice had anime tears while Midnight looked cartoonishly angry)
Midnight: because you're meant to keep your identity hidden!
Before they could continue they heard a sigh from the front door.
Rose: O-oh Hi (Y/N)... sir...
Midnight looked annoyed and then asked.
Midnight: How much did you hear?
You just looked with the look that says it all, but you still stated.
(Y/N): Should I start with the Cat that Morphed into a Mobby in front of me and didn't realise im right there...or the fact that your ship is destroyed?
Midnight looked like she was going to blow a gasket after you said that last bit and Alice morphed back into her Mobby form.
1 hour later...
Midnight was shouting profanity at the now pile of charred metal scrap pile and Alice looked at you thinking how she may have been to careless about hiding her identity when your just as good as her friend that screaming at the ship or what's left of it.
(Y/N): So why did you come here?
Alice jumped a little... Yep you're just as good as her friend.
Alice: I needed a place to stay.
You could tell something was weighing her down and thought to ask here
(Y/N): What did you need to get away from?
Alice knew you would hit the nail on the head, something about tells her you will listen to what she has to say.
Alice: I had to get away from someone I used to call a friend...now his nothing but a monster who can't remember who he was anymore.
You listen to her seeing a tear in her eye as she continues.
Alice: Midnight is the only one left that's from my time...she wouldn't admit it but she older then she looks...it's sad seeing the people you loved in your life die...and worse when you see them become a monster.
You thought back to the story you told Lisy and Rose wonder what part of it is true. Until you realise that it was just a tale fictional with only a grain of truth. She looks to be on the edge of tears.
Alice: And the worse thing is I can't do anything about it... because you can't save everyone...
She crumbled to the ground before she could burst into tears you give her a hug to calm her down and also start humming a lullaby in from the old day's you can't remember the words but you can remember how it sounds. This seems to calm her down a bit as she relaxes in your arms...and now she's sleeping...not the intended effect but it well do you call over to Midnight.
(Y/N): Hey I'm going to take Alice back to base you coming?
Midnight was watching how you handled Alice...it reminded her of a man she used to know...and had a huge crush on...
Midnight: Yea might as well I gotta call the Council and tell them im fine.
Midnight had already done that she just wanted some alone time to her self and she could also see Alice blushing...but she can't say anything as she was found of the boy long before Alice was in the picture. Alice was a bit of a misschievous soul although she never meant harm, but couldn't keep her identity hidden to save he life. The boy also was on her radar for a long time after she broke up with Adam it was more or less trying to date sanding paper for her she could not stand to live with him, but she could still be his friend of course. As you three get into the house you see Olivla peeking through the window trying to be stealthy and failing, Midnight could only wonder how see doesn't trip over herself. As you enter the house with Alice cradled in you arms and Midnight following behind, you see Alena with the bounty hunter who was tied up at the moment (Dadom Ching) you got up stairs to you room and put Alice in your bed when you set her down on the bed and pull the blanket over her she starts to giggle in her sleep and has a big blush, one can only guess as to what's going on in her dreams.
A/N: I'll give you two guesses...
You guess that your sleeping on the couch tonight, reason being you had a bounty hunter too question and you had bodys to clean up, but first you had to tell the girls that you would be "outside" for a bit. You tell the girls that you are going on a solo hike for a bit and will be back after dark Zofia wished you luck as did Clare and Olivla. Lisy was in the study reading whatever she wanted and already guessed that their was intruder that were dealt with so she continued reading. You tell Rose that she should rest for a bit, but insisted she come along. She felt like she needed to see what she was in for in the future and Alena join in due to her experience with these sort of thing's when her father was tasked with doing the same thing at times and Midnight was outside thinking to herself though you couldn't notice she had a massive blush on her face just thinking about you and her.
A/N: I think you know what she's thinking about.
She liked to fantasize about this alot in her free time, but you had to show the your "basement", were you keep some old tools lying about somewhere.
(Y/N): Alright i'm going to show you two something that I want you two to keep secret.
Rose then rested her hand on her cheek.
Rose: It's the hidden basement isn't it?
...How did she know that? You never told anybody that.
(Y/N): how did-
Before you could finish your question Alena answer before you could even ask
Alena: Terry told us when we were on the way here. He and Adam found it after you were passed out one time...though they don't know what's down there.
You looked down and said to yourself in a sad mumble.
(Y/N):...but I worked so hard to keep that a secret...
Meanwhile the female Ptak bounty hunter didn't know what she was looking at, she saw a really handsome guy that kill one of her...well she wouldn't call them friends they were kinda assholes to her...so no love lost there, looking down in the dumps because his hidden basement was found out easily, but she didn't know what to do as now she was dead either way. Her employer's didn't like lose ends and she was currently one of them, and these people took her "coworkers" out like they were no problem. She was told that they hadn't been in a fight in 5 years, but it's like they never left the battlefield. She never wanted to live like this if her father hadn't gotten a huge gambling problem...well he still be alive, her mother was killed in a car accident when she was young, but still they told her give them 10 mil by 5 year's or she'd be joining her parents. Needless to say she couldn't pass a 20 mil cut from a 80 mil bounty on the Loups chairmen...even if it is risky. She was pulled back from the realm of thought by the said handsome guy.
A/N: "Another one"
(Y/N): What's your name?
Rose and Alena looked confused why were you being nice to someone who tried to kill you? She the answered with.
Ptak girl: Why do you care? You'll kill me after I give you what I want. So why learn my name?
Her voice was spelled out defeat and you looked her dead in the eyes, she looked slightly frightened.
(Y/N): I know the look of desperation when I see it.
She looked confused and was more frightened despite your voice and eyes not hinting to any sort of threat.
Ptak girl: And how do you know?!
She was scared terrified even, but what you said next shocked her.
(Y/N): I know because my home world was filled with that same look, Including me.
There was a moment of silence before that silence was disrupted by your phone ringing you looked at the number and it's Terry.
A/N: Well that killed the mood...
(Y/N): Sorry it's an important phone call.
You answered your phone and greeted Terry.
(Y/N): Terry I was thinking you wouldn't call-
Before you could finish what you were saying Terry cut you off.
Terry(phone): No time for that have you checked the news lately?
You were confused Terry didn't do this normally and he was also in a panic it seems.
(Y/N): No but i'm checking now.
The girl's were confused as to why you were in a suddenly in a rush. You turn the TV on and change it to the news.
News reporter: I am live at the scene as a loyalist raid on a City Space Station was halted by a blizzard that came out of nowhere and no one has found how this blizzard even came to be...
20 minutes earlier on the said City Space Station...
Adam was cursing in his head. "Damn how did someone find him here" he thought to himself as he's running from loyalist soldier's no doubt that Victor Red was leading them. As he thought that he bumped into someone, he looked to see it was a human with pale almost white skin. His hair and eyes were White too, he also had a well trimmed beard if you look hard enough and looked to be in his mid thirties.
Pale Man: What's the rush sir?
Adam could not believe that this guy didn't know that there was a raid going on.
Adam: There's is no time we have to leave now!
The man looked confused...as Adam has a very worried look on his face. So the man thought to find a place not so valuable to get the panicked Loup in front of him to safety.
Pale Man: Calm down...let's find someone place to hide out first and then you can explain why your freaked out.
Adam really can't believe this guy was so calm in a situation like this. Was he clueless or something? However he was out of options at the moment and he either go with this guy, who may or not be an enemy. Still what did he have left to lose?
Adam: Fine. You got an idea were we can be safe?
The pale man nobbed.
Pale Man: Yea but it will cause some chaos in order to get there.
Adam was confused what was he going to do? Then the Palm Man spoke.
Pale Man: Before I do this, can I see you hand?
Adam thought it weird he needed his hand by they didn't have much time so he did so. Adam was baffled at what he did next as he put some kind of mark with just his fingers and all the sudden he felt warm.
Pale Man: Ok now I need you to turn around for a moment ok.
Adam didn't question it as he turned around and hears to be like glass beaking.
Palm Man: Ok you can turn around now
Adam turned to see he had smashed a glass bottle of... Is that a Blizzard?
Palm man: We might want to run now.
And run they did Adam looked back and saw that some how there was a blizzard in a bottle... Firstly, how is this happening. Secondly, who was this man. As he thought this Victor was looking at them, but he didn't give chase just yet as the strange man that was with Adam seemed familiar somehow. Whatever he was Victor only saw him as an obstacle as he did halted his men's movement.
Loyalist Soldier: Sir we can't see in a storm like this we will lose them.
He turned to the person that spoke to him.
Victor Red: What's your name?
The Soldier the saluted. Victor thought it odd most people that talk to him was either in a interrogation room or to scared that he would kill them.
Loyalist Soldier: O'Brien Sir!
This one might be useful to him, he was human and looked young. He had black hair and green eyes.
Victor Red: Can I trust you to handle thing's here O'Brien?
O'Brien then looked at him and said.
O'Brien: Yes sir! Happy hunting.
With that Victor gave chase to his quarry and thought the boy might come in handy later.
A/N: Past me you were way to tired to function.
