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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2j4Wpktwe
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzWsHyAo2S
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrJV03ktFk
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5sE7BvRp6
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5ED6THukV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06Rf3C8Pdy
"Here we are," Kayla announced, tapping her arm lightly. "You can open your eyes now."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyHMDd7y9Y
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWHkXKBVzx
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELoW1RQmWD
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfUnzhDRvI
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhDzv4sPXT
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgn6KmDxDXz
"Nice hairdo, you look like you'll fit right in," Hanna commented.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkaFhZ3eRI
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbP7kqsgWoW
"Thanks, a mission always starts right with the right outfit." Kayla winked at her jokingly.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xbAag4Nh4
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3j1I9V894P
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DtZStUzS5
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxONPOAVy5
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSC2haqXZOR
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdZfgI1Rrk
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmTo4ZEfss
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59g7zX9Fm7
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzH3J8MG8gb
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42b5ZzI3nA
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmM7RAnvVEV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDUfxkhEtr
"I hope this place is worth the cover," Hanna remarked, looking at the downtrodden exterior.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQpMB9ZSIV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJsdmjf3Hu
"Oh, we'll get our money's worth." Kayla chuckled.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbeHlbD7cs
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS45VqTI5ph
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUITQl171h
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEOkbD1bSl
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSFOQB8I1W
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC7ajay25B
"I'm twenty five, I shouldn't be getting carded," Hanna complained.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRiJlBkA2R
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxv4CStDZ1e
"Says the one who started forging her own fake IDs at fifteen," Kayla teased.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJSXUcBhbH
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvXdWrEtnk
"It's not like that was to get into bars," Hanna added.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHSg0bTzFu
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sqjoFTJz9
Kayla gave her a skeptical look. As they walked further inwards, the sound of the music grew louder.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvTnrcEKqx
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivYGTyxjw2
"Okay, maybe one bar," Hanna admitted.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrSEw4aZoI
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNixWTgpIB
Kayla laughed. "You would have gotten caught too if my mom hadn't caught you first."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8P9OiIsfDa
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnZzL1blKX
"I've gotten better since then," Hanna argued.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtF1Jrq4jO
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbau8O6BzBn
"I know, I taught you." Kayla smiled back.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi01eBYGLOj
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIRGIfASja
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kJkt39EGe
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPOQFoW970
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOnvTWz89w
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0liVJuD5nq
"Where do we look first?" Hanna asked.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv2N8YTN3R
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Q6IKeGQA4
"The dance floor," Kayla replied energetically, smiling.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHq6psq8RnK
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk91OtwkjRW
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4HfkVx5ud
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFpeTQKAgP
Kayla scoffed at her cousin's attitude. "Uh, we have the whole night for that. Have some fun!"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdZcoSNfeq
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHgDrq4rkMB
"We're not here for fun," Hanna reminded her seriously.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizJ9tEWecn
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcktG3YVi6B
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWelIqmTnro
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwzNPMfYgg
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxDKC6b27g
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiUAl9SAld
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCCQ4aBBJf2
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1QYjL7QKG
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFDqTUNTMB
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UE7WNQPB1
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgLB89A4ml
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OrNvL75P4
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8xfKnzg4g
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIGDX0TBwa
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfI2YGVSz0N
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwuNj2d8fi
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLD4e5kx3xV
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9jYCglfBU
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrVt2QFXBF
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQtXZNasyJ
"What was that for?" Kayla complained with a pout.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX2Sd4Z3pa
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrqtJutLWh
"I think I found the spot." Hanna gestured over to the guarded entrance. "There's guards."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykIT9KQWzX
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9YX01AkNe
"Let's take a look." Kayla's tone turned serious instantly.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡferTX8qH9g
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHRNMqrT24
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ911kXCDtWa
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1JvnPQuHW
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbytw43FHF
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LTe8hUrAY
"What's the plan?" Hanna asked her older cousin.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthfsgMUvSu
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxDmD2505g
"You sneak in and I'll distract them," Kayla answered briefly.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeediH2f3M
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqie0tkrkS
"How?" Hanna asked.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27ngDOWe6d
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCp8m777Ae9
Kayla gestured to her body.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeDXHvi3Yi
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NB8ATEqHb
"The guards are male," Hanna stated.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVGvxGJF3u
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStv0bairTX
"So?" Kayla replied with a healthy dose of sass.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNAUe8UERR
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9OQdBApqB
"You're gay," Hanna reminded her.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJaLexr3T3
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8MU7tyiuK
Kayla scoffed. "Seduction is a gender neutral skill."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6O2RcXojb
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5EohEkqIJ
Hanna rolled her eyes at her cousin. "You couldn't get a guy to fall for you if your life depended on it."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztnJBw9euB
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1eNBAOqX1
"Wanna bet?" Kayla smirked as she started walking over to towards the two men, waving and swaying with pretend drunkenness.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDEVPY57Z4
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AB9PDvgmP
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO1B6zZEdd
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡya1HG4XREh
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKo1bR5Vpx
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJfdTKWrae
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzomTENZ4B
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4saXdqrdT
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKPBZKJYcw
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4lPyeIEjJ1
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpd9fjuVWr
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXh1S2Hn1l
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2OTs2Iv9u
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWI3hR7EPI
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhIloAggrs
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF44ytMmwBG
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl1SoLV5tJ
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbouyknC9Q1
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2u2fhjCNv9
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdL5UeWej51
He stopped for a moment, evidently startled, but then his eyes narrowed. "You're not supposed to be in here," he said, slightly confused.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiV94sso3u2
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsXVAbOrGa
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSKYXVrEDh
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68IwK6fa6L
"This door was locked," he stated, even more suspicious now.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdGWfRQryl
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ811NOcsTem
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRG9efpb6r
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJXkOkIcqR
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSY2ZWTKAQI
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXhHkBJnnH
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWLOYNBr6E
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFy7UR6PExB
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOivHE17b2T
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJlQkShgS9
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVtlTWs662
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnxhYkKjNzC
"What happened?" Kayla asked.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfooPH9xn4
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB7TNMXPvo
Hanna shrugged dismissively. "I got the bug in there. Some sort of back room with drugs."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWJfxsIGZ7
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgtIyglieH6
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8CYpwYV4j
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1qQmJbyYz
"Good thing I didn't actually wager anything then," Hanna shot back.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64GFp123C8
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATrR1Fbbhu
"Sore loser." Kayla stuck out her tongue before slipping on her helmet and hopped on the bike. "Your place?"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmF5jRuORH3
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OUtMWIXuq
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD2FAt8v4R
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkCrzq9wGg
"You only live once." Kayla revved the motor.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IHml31Zi0
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqMywONy8w
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIe4VuY1iIf
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVENlwhAh3
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBQqD0cleH
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtHH7ePTqF
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpJmFtpan1
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVIy2wTc4vc
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW06ouHKbad
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkdwkeaSAi
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfdYOdqr1X
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbe3gLpwmA
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ27rUugYyGt
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtagjX0qNAU
"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN824nQkHKd
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCa1OwcMlO
Kayla chuckled, starting to flip through the television channels as Hanna finished setting up the connection.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6zWsER6ZF
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfi1CgT6flv
"It's done," Hanna announced.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQz8JCJphA
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTnd1R8yhm
Kayla clicked off the television. "Let's see if they're talking about us."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHqE1wbVTc
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PuXsvYkHp
"Sure," Hanna replied, clicking on the live feed. She did hear some conversation being picked up by the microphone. She turned up the volume.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvQYvf2K1P
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPYifSFjyv
"Deal's on Friday, nothing to do till then."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawF0khrdcJ

"That's it?"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPJZPyzKgY
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFtrXdEtnp
"And keep your eyes peeled for any Charax. You all know what to watch for?"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwe36HeR5O
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9eWRuwPvG
Kayla and Hanna shared a quick puzzled look as the conversation kept going.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHkMx9AXdIY
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvZyJaiLnp
"Tremors, sweating-"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4eulZOFeZ
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefKx2N6cZN
"Insane horniness?" Another new voice broke in.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5IHNw81R1
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DYdoWQM2k
Laughter came through the speaker.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNQqGdbhMg
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XoNhgPVNr
"You're laughing now, but you won't be when you see the ID bonus."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycqhnT5yE7
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRe734t6w1
"How big?"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFtFG0jGQY
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HkwDcXy0p
"More than enough to settle your debts, Terrence."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpRZHvEJgi
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRli7NcUqz
"So yeah, that's it."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfuknMjmoc
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw5WYYnmjf
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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNQuiGdXUC
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlyWDFSFPG
"Maybe they came to Earth to party?" Kayla suggested jokingly.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGB6BMyyVv
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi4d64ePyS
"I think the super advanced space humans have discovered nightclubs, Kayla," Hanna said sarcastically.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjBeIsFEs4
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRIXyUEY0B
"Maybe they're looking for a hookup?" Kayla shot out another guess.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqsNANGXes
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlucFylU5V
"So... acting like completely normal humans in a club. Doesn't seem like the best way to smoke them out," Hanna remarked.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJ9wa6PV93
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVscwnz0Wi
"You know the males get all..." Kayla made an incomprehensible gesture.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinXmKKOIam
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgmgh5AcAe
"Huh?" Hanna gave her a confused look and waved her hand randomly to mock her cousin's actions. "What's that supposed to mean?"108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FcmSVwhx1
108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWmiMl4YAUo
Kayla huffed. "Horny, that was obviously horny. You know, when Charax men go into their heat cycle."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wfv2MJWaU

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."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWS7nuqqD0j

"Well, maybe they get a little too desperate and a bit too stupid," Kayla suggested. "Still, Charax are really rare and hard to find."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOCTVcIuKK

"Yeah, so rare that the official stance is there that aren't any left hiding in the general population," Hanna argued.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIgvHdd32I

"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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk12gTNA06K

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."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiI5hDCUUM
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."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9Zfpqrjdp

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."108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0PTn98Ojz

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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxM9Q3DHFlG

"You too. Call me when you've got your next one?" Hanna asked hopefully.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMhgsTjrKU

"Will do!" Kayla called from the doorway.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiybh6jHDv

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.108Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZy6XKmU33
