I'm sorry I didn't hear that, you said what? Your panties, I want the panties you wearing right now. Why? Research purposes of course why else? They would play a significant role in creating the potion.
Fabro felt smug, he had once again demanded the perfect payment. Before he could continue he felt two hands grad the back of his head and the next thing he knew his face was planted on the ground. YOU STUPID LECHER.
He head Yamiko shout at him while Yamino just whispered lecherous boss with her usual bland tone. If it will be of use I don't mind, said Nobell. Wait you believe that? Asked Yamiko.
Of course she does, I'm not a liar, it will of course be of great use, Fabro said his face still planted of the ground. The explosion from your abuse has probably alerted the guards, we should be going, he said.
Lady of the snow, we will meet again, I have things to take care of. Thank you, she said. Well then we best be going. The three of them turned around and disappeared in a few seconds.

Frank was a guard at Flame Ridge town, his father was a guard and his father before him, his family had been guards of the town for the past two hundred years, before the current town lord took over. Although Flame Ridge was considered a relatively small town it still had about 2 million people, protective the well being of those people was honour, so his father said but honestly, it was a shitty job.
While he was doing his duty guarding the gate, he heard an explosion, he looked towards his fellow guard. The two of them were both mortals and they knew that explosion was definitely not causes by mortals but it was their duty to go check.
Lex, his fellow guard and best friend looked nervous. They marched forward with their spears. When they arrived at the place there was no one there but a 2 metres wide crater. They looked at each other.
Both knew they would have to report this to the guard captain. That insufferable bastard, if he wasn't an initiate Frank would've killed him long ago. Frank really hated awakened, they treated mortals like livestock.
They turned around and went to report it. The captain turned his office into his living chambers. It was extremely luxurious almost like a house of a noble or merchant. Frank and Lex knocked on the front door.
The captain who told them to refer to him as Tiger for some pretentious reason hated being disturbed at night but if they don't report he is going to punish them tomorrow. Lex looked really pale.
He looked at him, let me do the talking he said. The door swung open, a scantily dressed young woman was standing infront of them, they could bruises on her neck and fear in her eyes.
Please come in, she said in a tiny voice trying to sound welcoming but he could hear the tremble in her voice. They got inside, there were other women in there all scantily dressed with fake smiles.
They were led upstairs and into what appears to be a bedroom and even more women were there, all of them, every single one of them was absolutely gorgeous. In the bed laid a muscular man with a tiger tattoo on his right arm.
Speak, said Tiger with a deep bored voice. There was a disturbance outside the town sir, said Frank. So?he asked. We believe it was caused by exalted awakened. He really hated calling those monsters exalted but not doing so would get him killed so he had to shove it down his throat.
Did you see them? No sir we did not. So you do not know how powerful they are? No sir we do not. Then what do you want me to do. Dive head first into an unknown situations? Tiger was calm but Frank knew this was his most dangerous self.
We await your orders sir. Fine, find out who they are and how strong they are within a week or give me your heads. Sorry sir but how are we supposed to determine their strength? Figure it out, you are guards are you not? Understood, I will personally take charge of this mission.
Lex tried to argue but Frank just stepped on his toes to shut him up. Hoh, by yourself? Yes sir, somebody needs to guard the gate while the other looks for the culprit. Makes sense, then let it be so, remember, don't disappoint, Tiger said In a threatening tone.
Yes sir, I will not, deep down Frank breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to involve his friend in this. His wife was pregnant and if he was gone she would suffer and so would his unborn child whilehe on the other hand had no one so his death wouldn't have much on an impact on anybody.
Why did you do that? Asked Lex after they left. You have a wife and a child on the way, you have people who need you. And you don't? I don't have any family Lex. That hurtful, Lex said jokingly. You know what what I meant. Yes I do and you wrong, there is somebody who cares about you.
I don't know what you talking about. Nandi, I see the way you look at each other, all you need to do is man up and confess and she's yours. Yeah well she's better off without me. That her decision to make.
You should stop thinking so little of yourself man, Lex said as he patted his shoulder. Good luck my good friend, he said as he left for his home. Thanks, Frank whispered, then sighed, I'm gonna die, he thought.

Fabro arrived at the restaurant with the twins behind him. He looked at the drunk Luke behind the counter still with a bottle in his hand. Luke raised his head a little, looked at them then took a sip from the bottle before resting his head on the counter again as if sleeping.
Luke get your lazy ass up I have a job you. I already have a job, I'm a bartender. I've never seen such a drunk bartender, besides this job is a bit more interesting, you might get to show others the beauty of alcohol.
That drew Lukes attention, speak. I need you to take a trip, might be a bit of a long trip though, you up for it?, he asked with a grin, his black helmet long gone.
