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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuyBoHIewx
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCQ2cMYoF3
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡma9guv31jd
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYng9QMf3v
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1eUsP4cye
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam7OdNCMp9
"Here we are," Kayla announced, tapping her arm lightly. "You can open your eyes now."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVjUXE4LBs
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kYQuc3IVF
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNUpt9EI5I
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iSr4FqYLM
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgvuUK2p4W
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wdL50YwtX
"Nice hairdo, you look like you'll fit right in," Hanna commented.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5WzSmqufu
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmcUVTnSvW
"Thanks, a mission always starts right with the right outfit." Kayla winked at her jokingly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjM1lyKeRM
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIOLoiCgJy
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWgRnIxWRZ
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LyULjjXSk
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9d0Ihnpy4
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgJvR8Ni8v
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3GDKWa0sh
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqJ2f9BR6L
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qzPWHaUwg
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVjSQ2wlyD
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJieMsIDwi
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFWmtus2vb
"I hope this place is worth the cover," Hanna remarked, looking at the downtrodden exterior.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwt4k5HdaQY
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHxXH4LhGS
"Oh, we'll get our money's worth." Kayla chuckled.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GNqH1VlLQ
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHuME6hUL0C
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoBm2yihXv
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYx4wEgSC7W
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sJgmKlroV
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4alaHzHYS
"I'm twenty five, I shouldn't be getting carded," Hanna complained.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNgy16SeuL
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZsvMOur2K
"Says the one who started forging her own fake IDs at fifteen," Kayla teased.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn4b8DBeaF8
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhjZFgdNUJ
"It's not like that was to get into bars," Hanna added.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOtXbScj0P
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22cEuj0YGO
Kayla gave her a skeptical look. As they walked further inwards, the sound of the music grew louder.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU4g9HbK4m
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEKmyZBiSF
"Okay, maybe one bar," Hanna admitted.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0Q8dgJNyN
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqCD4lSlyQ
Kayla laughed. "You would have gotten caught too if my mom hadn't caught you first."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQUzFa8ZkL
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuTL5XFVWF
"I've gotten better since then," Hanna argued.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrAt8Peq0c
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLcMYUr5Y7y
"I know, I taught you." Kayla smiled back.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Dz6YZEAzM
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd6qlrTqUw
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvSU9hxFQp
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruTowChKD7
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4oIVy5wTtT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpS7UzAZzG
"Where do we look first?" Hanna asked.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNyUACyRlT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrO821cJb5
"The dance floor," Kayla replied energetically, smiling.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjP7xpgCAdG
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSk6THWQIG
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzyJP7p1qN
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6lVZLwPgC
Kayla scoffed at her cousin's attitude. "Uh, we have the whole night for that. Have some fun!"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZ33x96nUD
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0P8HMNJY8
"We're not here for fun," Hanna reminded her seriously.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSxAjnSv8I
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb35EiAUDRs
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL1eHfJCke
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQ3SJyhgrs
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSJ2D6tLg0
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6ohNxNd7J
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UO0ibSml8
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVl3ryCJMZA
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGuVuvZ5Ix
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujqA6UOyYu
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKP5FMIwMF
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtzH73pS4a
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv0uGLyXZm
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAcWG6PDA2
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAnEQKe3dJ
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprswfmlxra
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8flNnggub
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt93vvV89Y
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dgDS4jM62
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIznIppdqry
"What was that for?" Kayla complained with a pout.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vNJXsh9Bo
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6bSFAiD1t
"I think I found the spot." Hanna gestured over to the guarded entrance. "There's guards."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr2mKp0mwr
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtumZJ6UNZM
"Let's take a look." Kayla's tone turned serious instantly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKEXB8YU36
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrLetRjvhJm
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOVNM9QXP1
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR16vH9JKm
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnNWDEdRRi
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2D8gSpwe3
"What's the plan?" Hanna asked her older cousin.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1F12QXoRx
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb25vh6h0tg
"You sneak in and I'll distract them," Kayla answered briefly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLMS23s2HN
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RGy39lthI
"How?" Hanna asked.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVjpwUxWHr9
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nw7LleEw1
Kayla gestured to her body.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pDSHQQKZ2
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JCKTKDkBp
"The guards are male," Hanna stated.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XDf7yWzXT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICurfnuP4l
"So?" Kayla replied with a healthy dose of sass.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6VCzhzCPR
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9EL5qwCZH
"You're gay," Hanna reminded her.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWaf9C7l8i
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNC6zCE2xU
Kayla scoffed. "Seduction is a gender neutral skill."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRpSXFGS9E
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdbry5o0tx
Hanna rolled her eyes at her cousin. "You couldn't get a guy to fall for you if your life depended on it."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwxi34uHJq
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAetsMv4D6f
"Wanna bet?" Kayla smirked as she started walking over to towards the two men, waving and swaying with pretend drunkenness.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lQ26imkAM
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumkaTejgAI
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOrsDS7LIo
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplrJlrxFr4
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYUz527gAc
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSMqrM8kGH
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WkiMJGxRj
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00cDcpmk2P
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr65xdoWFQe
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CzhTIQvJj
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8lwjLbeCe
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUhFAwO6Pb
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr2NPHDT6J
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQs2MseM71D
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxI7Ur6mnaH
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUlTuhFAoy
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFsSjTZa1v
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoNZw1z8JM
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlh1QnXFSNt
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQM8uEu49T
He stopped for a moment, evidently startled, but then his eyes narrowed. "You're not supposed to be in here," he said, slightly confused.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeu9UsbUFcB
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23NOYGumhg
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwRxi713NB
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhpCdNhnI7
"This door was locked," he stated, even more suspicious now.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuNhqXn3uj
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4u62YBztH
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp87LLnL0EW
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7xPB1POs4
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO1Hdp9tzJ
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BgY6JZwEX
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU0ORyJCBj
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo25i8c7uMb
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0oil3Y1GcP
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yy5emi8XC
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFlkxF0jwg
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToKAvXKhSY
"What happened?" Kayla asked.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTpDNtpxas
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtN8Vzl7Cpa
Hanna shrugged dismissively. "I got the bug in there. Some sort of back room with drugs."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2wbrcVkSA
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFseBLFT147
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgthRm63uY9
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTET7yzhaBw
"Good thing I didn't actually wager anything then," Hanna shot back.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst1mvTdiWD
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN78DXpzJal
"Sore loser." Kayla stuck out her tongue before slipping on her helmet and hopped on the bike. "Your place?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdh40wIknj
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUc9FhiYsM
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnWlmNkDWV
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHrSrDajYJ
"You only live once." Kayla revved the motor.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjfvg2dtvk
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgAoN7aHrM
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7YRB42Jso
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTLfk62X6D
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9h2s7PG8dv
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nvECHNMAV
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7r5aMlT3v
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgJeOUEwmM
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbuiqIFLlc
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6Revs9JJy
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmejzFSQF9
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM617dPWvct
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wAJIwoR8V
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hLAJbHEWg
"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIkqUO60SO
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYua8kcEWX
Kayla chuckled, starting to flip through the television channels as Hanna finished setting up the connection.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2B8c4rTo9
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxsSh6pM0v
"It's done," Hanna announced.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeIVZDz2xT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFBqqojxUXn
Kayla clicked off the television. "Let's see if they're talking about us."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PBwRWdNj0
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyIr9hZq28
"Sure," Hanna replied, clicking on the live feed. She did hear some conversation being picked up by the microphone. She turned up the volume.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJAzKlCSb2v
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWcJewPwN5

"That's it?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOqGzWZwrn
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyOzbazwfJH
"And keep your eyes peeled for any Charax. You all know what to watch for?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9iDvFVYhtY
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwbloRwx2l
Kayla and Hanna shared a quick puzzled look as the conversation kept going.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7yoItMka3
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OJUjuU8bb
"Tremors, sweating-"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntBaTEcRy2
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZk0MGFla1
"Insane horniness?" Another new voice broke in.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY1xx7wcNC
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcfMnBEUEr
Laughter came through the speaker.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFToKnj52lN
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oGR5Ag2tV
"You're laughing now, but you won't be when you see the ID bonus."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOalXw7eQGy
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOm5XgQaN2
"How big?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWdXisnBnF
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EGuZHxvE8
"More than enough to settle your debts, Terrence."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFD1df0Ym5
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIfQlf3cJN
"So yeah, that's it."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09rsoDdCdr
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJapl81TAT1
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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESd99MELr9
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTi8Agdtxn
"Maybe they came to Earth to party?" Kayla suggested jokingly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxVhE0nAcg
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfatrks4Xs3
"I think the super advanced space humans have discovered nightclubs, Kayla," Hanna said sarcastically.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Oq5x2Q88A
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKZhlkqGxS
"Maybe they're looking for a hookup?" Kayla shot out another guess.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqxkDgowYt
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk1rPZSHpD
"So... acting like completely normal humans in a club. Doesn't seem like the best way to smoke them out," Hanna remarked.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZlSEi8xMl
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb1E7j8MOT
"You know the males get all..." Kayla made an incomprehensible gesture.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgWsgXeron
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPFtgNdS67
"Huh?" Hanna gave her a confused look and waved her hand randomly to mock her cousin's actions. "What's that supposed to mean?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQovwik6RiA
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnRh2AoCoH
Kayla huffed. "Horny, that was obviously horny. You know, when Charax men go into their heat cycle."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlt43rCe1u

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."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcw4MrlmOpa

"Well, maybe they get a little too desperate and a bit too stupid," Kayla suggested. "Still, Charax are really rare and hard to find."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONDGhVwaDj

"Yeah, so rare that the official stance is there that aren't any left hiding in the general population," Hanna argued.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoWUGIOlMy

"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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY9hdE9fIgg

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."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvHivm0Bwbn
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."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9tWZzyleBu

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."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8W5FGiawQ

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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FB1r5RshS

"You too. Call me when you've got your next one?" Hanna asked hopefully.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQS3uujzrff

"Will do!" Kayla called from the doorway.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDtkwAsHhP

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.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡURT82iR935
