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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaTArNC9Oh
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PA1vpZpwq
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAS6pDeACl
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObe9rOpqxI
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo4Sd0gyTA
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynHt7fEDMc
"Here we are," Kayla announced, tapping her arm lightly. "You can open your eyes now."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0BjmmVcXYm
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JpLBJTwQ0
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1e1NwgzzB
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSIhgLK2h3
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpvYvMfIwp
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pTexhiZcY
"Nice hairdo, you look like you'll fit right in," Hanna commented.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiEOjPS6qW
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuqX0sag5Y
"Thanks, a mission always starts right with the right outfit." Kayla winked at her jokingly.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklnhG3hcx5
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNggvsD68JA
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s6m71toNU
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUBIqbQU2A
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB0naRtX2E
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtvCTmI0EF
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UROdmv99M
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHzBcKR1HB
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYvVTnznR3
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdEG4hJIGZ
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjGnN2WgrZ
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sp6A88PDX
"I hope this place is worth the cover," Hanna remarked, looking at the downtrodden exterior.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4ww9o72ab
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuRVeVJUlE
"Oh, we'll get our money's worth." Kayla chuckled.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH2ZPOW45mX
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOOXh0BUti
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzrcJPeZvZ
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJayIGuxZeg
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHsWuMBbgc
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHf12jfPyK
"I'm twenty five, I shouldn't be getting carded," Hanna complained.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIeQTZQ2CI
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKoKFkqSdU
"Says the one who started forging her own fake IDs at fifteen," Kayla teased.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKwbG813Cb
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ab3zE3zsF
"It's not like that was to get into bars," Hanna added.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfbsOefs0y
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCUK3nOybG
Kayla gave her a skeptical look. As they walked further inwards, the sound of the music grew louder.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIZQDjVY6H
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGSFHX2Z2z
"Okay, maybe one bar," Hanna admitted.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡop0yQg6YbS
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yZYlFxLQE
Kayla laughed. "You would have gotten caught too if my mom hadn't caught you first."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDI6WMEnfB
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW7cIIAkTl
"I've gotten better since then," Hanna argued.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52gdK8iIVP
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAfg1nKf7K
"I know, I taught you." Kayla smiled back.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPMj8Gzgl2
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPm7kKJJsYq
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27apBPnSmo
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3el0I3eLp
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPTlmYiAwD
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWVQFiJanF
"Where do we look first?" Hanna asked.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhF4njcvmfq
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4085Qbd6m
"The dance floor," Kayla replied energetically, smiling.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRpYK10dE5
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnyZd0AgMg
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXs2gzYxOf
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjwjAQOoR7
Kayla scoffed at her cousin's attitude. "Uh, we have the whole night for that. Have some fun!"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rrk5yGbuB
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nLXXytyws
"We're not here for fun," Hanna reminded her seriously.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg0qXDv6Nvn
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGBOzoZIlN
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bDMp8ZljY
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJCo0YKSQDh
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpnEBnQwLj
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFIl5M4HUfz
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHREfX13aP
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA34q0HNSW
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRCv9SfOmA
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGI8syXswPN
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUZq2VoRt2
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU19QnudNy
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCUgjtbSF0
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFZRJ4dCLq
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN1sngpj8Y
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz4LXd7FJa
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc2VCPmwQk
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm008MaLyz8
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeprC1LJHBk
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rs9hITyiI
"What was that for?" Kayla complained with a pout.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlvhS76DuR
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO62gsNl1kO
"I think I found the spot." Hanna gestured over to the guarded entrance. "There's guards."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8Rx4CCjYo
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DQmKKHEGK
"Let's take a look." Kayla's tone turned serious instantly.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaH5oDsUHew
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSo2dtIwfb
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxidSbflF7
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE86FikrCwp
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFND5U50qI6
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3er071LpJp
"What's the plan?" Hanna asked her older cousin.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6lLLmqeBC
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVN64J0BiZ
"You sneak in and I'll distract them," Kayla answered briefly.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyx7zofUmz
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrGTPE1jCF
"How?" Hanna asked.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyVT4GrBFl
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYNNjX4DeB
Kayla gestured to her body.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDR1N1U5ix
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLvnehVjpY
"The guards are male," Hanna stated.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0otMMmlTs
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlPEjdnxLY
"So?" Kayla replied with a healthy dose of sass.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7pgYvW5J5
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMoSK8ck15
"You're gay," Hanna reminded her.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvZ6uSBgcs
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqh4mbvcIV
Kayla scoffed. "Seduction is a gender neutral skill."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAyyn4ZDBN
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxv2xr5TNG
Hanna rolled her eyes at her cousin. "You couldn't get a guy to fall for you if your life depended on it."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtg02LJGps2
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5my5tsdFU
"Wanna bet?" Kayla smirked as she started walking over to towards the two men, waving and swaying with pretend drunkenness.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvow1iNPR5
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGyOhFtbuv
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1izkKX789r
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsmAoFRiY4
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyV5KIGfbS
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8ekHjwXFJ
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu74T166HGQ
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxUWawgfz1
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaEslwuUFI
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpN2EbmtSEF
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCLBCJucrC
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡani2dWxvoE
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVSEo1G3kS
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zbhiTG6eZ
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MnT42NFOn
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUYu5Dzlj2
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxe4Ghdcbon
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJmxDl1saYF
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J3KDruiMZ
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SyJhE0135
He stopped for a moment, evidently startled, but then his eyes narrowed. "You're not supposed to be in here," he said, slightly confused.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoDNRDAKct
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV8C7RoUW3
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5ioannbaj
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3QQASrJHQ
"This door was locked," he stated, even more suspicious now.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4505fle67F
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0PYqmdkxP
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOdVuUIGzx
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tbs1oieWi
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGw7ho3HEl
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdT3KnQUMIY
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3oqaTWTFL
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqzoAHlJsf
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdljAxQikhA
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1794dOixco
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjm0LCwyH0
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL1K3G2skfc
"What happened?" Kayla asked.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZJViHjwNv
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPc2HVSdNxx
Hanna shrugged dismissively. "I got the bug in there. Some sort of back room with drugs."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4LdVHAzcv
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwzWEQeOKm
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2UfNIOYan
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5eRFfeCcl
"Good thing I didn't actually wager anything then," Hanna shot back.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw8TV7MOnf
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCmLqOKHxy
"Sore loser." Kayla stuck out her tongue before slipping on her helmet and hopped on the bike. "Your place?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT7JZ4X16N
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtj2ObW2D9K
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTLjdZAQXf
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFQqPDqKee
"You only live once." Kayla revved the motor.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWaEj4r2t7
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CcNLk7J0p
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvEWWBZ7Ax
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ807wcUJdv5
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkl0iLTKA9
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwy5cdJjrL
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBBES64khT
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgnH1K5Yjd
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqnhGnmJ7X
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xscdnqiva
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4wXAbUhO7
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8C5Fdyhhcv
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Rk14CO0Y7
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡls2FaguTDw
"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwyBnE0agd
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTPbAI7kjv
Kayla chuckled, starting to flip through the television channels as Hanna finished setting up the connection.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzqxxz2jbK
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr13AmRal2Y
"It's done," Hanna announced.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQKM2vvZ91
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9l6ub5bw1
Kayla clicked off the television. "Let's see if they're talking about us."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXPKWLAssF
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTSR3PWH83
"Sure," Hanna replied, clicking on the live feed. She did hear some conversation being picked up by the microphone. She turned up the volume.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjySok47ivT
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLTc0Y14gE
"Deal's on Friday, nothing to do till then."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdELXd8sDvu

"That's it?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkm7PreWe8
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoYPI5ZmOH
"And keep your eyes peeled for any Charax. You all know what to watch for?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMYYYXnU5v
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrCy4xHjKJ
Kayla and Hanna shared a quick puzzled look as the conversation kept going.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGrfhnJepM
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KG5ambmhc
"Tremors, sweating-"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoFnFWIY3G
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1skfbkH30G
"Insane horniness?" Another new voice broke in.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5jWZnthtK
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwa3pOAxNZ
Laughter came through the speaker.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu4r5A30zo
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHi6w6fAMH
"You're laughing now, but you won't be when you see the ID bonus."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyNfJ6YeDq
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qO9ZjtBdx
"How big?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxdlmgRAH7
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Pamr244om
"More than enough to settle your debts, Terrence."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMW4VYPb16
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIrvW2DZat
"So yeah, that's it."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2cl8L1d1v
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0oKGWr6S0
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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlIsdK4j5G
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFKsdufngo
"Maybe they came to Earth to party?" Kayla suggested jokingly.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2MyE78z11
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJXkoXay9p
"I think the super advanced space humans have discovered nightclubs, Kayla," Hanna said sarcastically.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86ziiyphVE
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4kXyMBRbr
"Maybe they're looking for a hookup?" Kayla shot out another guess.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2tLlgVnRA
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SdkCUcW2q
"So... acting like completely normal humans in a club. Doesn't seem like the best way to smoke them out," Hanna remarked.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefrH7pQieI
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj8xUtg8uV
"You know the males get all..." Kayla made an incomprehensible gesture.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfVQf7pLfi
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBDKlPhyFH
"Huh?" Hanna gave her a confused look and waved her hand randomly to mock her cousin's actions. "What's that supposed to mean?"193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtpBn3uXC6
193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBnFT3JbT5
Kayla huffed. "Horny, that was obviously horny. You know, when Charax men go into their heat cycle."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6srv8eYeo

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."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq9OjnxIQz

"Well, maybe they get a little too desperate and a bit too stupid," Kayla suggested. "Still, Charax are really rare and hard to find."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpewoEYnR9G

"Yeah, so rare that the official stance is there that aren't any left hiding in the general population," Hanna argued.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5rtNTPC80

"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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gNakhUGqf

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."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFzka7VRbo
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."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMNxau7lb2

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."193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGmpYihm8V

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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaSWTBzgqc

"You too. Call me when you've got your next one?" Hanna asked hopefully.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbcoZ84b8I

"Will do!" Kayla called from the doorway.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6tRdWoXVI

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.193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKU643iH8I
