Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Wait, when did Sepia start having a thing for Shiro? Is this a recent development or am I just that dense, @SevenStormStyle?

@Guess Who

They were together in the kid's competition as far back as last year.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

@Lugubrious, we fucking did it.

Lauren pushed the final chemical drum with a little less bombast than she would have normally had, taking the advantage to breath in deeply, rest her hands on her knees, and enjoy the conversation unfolding between the other two Huntsmen. It brought the same gentle smile to her face that she'd worn a minute before in the elevator, but they wouldn't notice. Lauren Negasi was the farthest thing from their minds right now.

Sangue deserved more friends. It had been a lotta years since Lorena had last seen someone so pure go so unappreciated by those around her. And Luke...Luke was a good boy.

I kept them safe.

She'd protected Sangue's modesty at the cost of her own. She'd dreamed up daring and inventive ways of killing Grimm alongside Ben that even she wouldn't have expected. She'd...well, she'd electrocuted Luke, but he had volunteered. Besides, she wouldn't have let anything happen to him. She would have taken over herself. No one would tell if she charred herself to a crisp.

For a kid from the streets with a 'break glass to save the world' weapon...

She wasn't half bad at this Huntress shit.

Slowly, Lauren beamed - and joined her friends in the lift.

As the elevator raised back up and the three began tossing drums from the lift into the back of the truck (a task made far easier for the students by the mere three yards of distance between the lift and the back of the stolen vehicle), Lauren found a small joy in the monotony of the job. It was nice to just do some old fashioned bitch-work after the day's antics.

All survivors had been extracted.

They'd stolen every swollen blue drum of insidious chemicals that wasn't hiding in Ben's scrotum.

Not bad.

"Alright, you kids, hop in! I'll get up top and signal Cap - just drive slow and try not to turn too fast." She could hear the pained roars of the Manticore outside, and as Lauren climbed atop the truck's cab and they slowly rolled out of the cargo bay with Luke behind the wheel, they were greeted with the welcome sight of Lauren's harem Ben and Amy working together, using Fury to decapitate the ugly fucker. The negligibly-clothed heart of Bastille stood up and gave her teammates a raucous, lusty cheer.

"W A L L A H I !"

Would they hear that?

She needed a way to signal them...

...

Should she take her bra off? It might work as a flag...

I'll wait for the dorms to pull that one.

A wicked grin grew across Negasi's face, and she decided - for maybe the first time in her adult life - to take the conservative option.

"WE'RE GONNA BE FUCKING R I C H, CAP! NOW BRING OUR ASSES HOME BEFORE WE KEEP THE LIEN FOR OURSELVES!"

The giggle accompanying the statement only grew louder as the sense of hype swelled throughout her body.

They were done.

"Lube's a sweeeeeetheaaaaaart," Lauren sang, stopping to stroke the ahoge of her adopted little brother before kicking another two drums onto the lift. Between the three of them, they'd moved about half of the drums so far in seemingly no time at all, and Luke Schwarz's ability to monologue and talk at the same time made him hella more productive. Having Sangue here was convenient. Luke's body always seemed to function without his tacit approval around cute girls.

He and Cap probably have a lot of war stories to share...

Maybe there was a reason all the guys in her life seemed to have sexual harassment stories.

...

They all need confidence!

By the time the one-time carjacker's rare moment of self-awareness had ended, she had gotten to the remaining baker's dozen of chemical drums. Staring at them for a couple seconds, she slowly looked all the way down to the end of the hallway where Sangue and Luke were talking, then back to the drums. An idea struck her.

What the fuck, Negasi?

Work smart, not hard.

"Coming your way, babe!"

By the time Sangue and Luke looked up at Lauren, a drum was rolling down the hallway towards them, leisurely paced thanks to a keen shove from one of Lauren's feet. A second joined it in short order. Then a third.

Soon, they had a neat little production line going. Had to be easier than going two at a time.

@Crimmy has no internet at his house and it's looking like it's gonna be that way for the foreseeable future. Just a heads up for the lads who want to hang with Gratia.

Not a bad question, in all honesty.

Even her parents used it mostly just to make fun.

Kimiko shrugged, trying not to nudge Fukushima with her shoulder as she did.

"He's a dick."

The Lesbo and her Lube

"W-What are you stopping for? We've got a l-ahahahaha-otta drums to keep moving! What's the matter!?"

Her facade was clearly breaking. As Lauren Negasi pushed her first two barrels onto the lift and spun on her heel, it was clear that the grin splitting her features was not the normal turbocharged look of excitement that the ambiguously ethnic Huntress usually wore. No, this was something sinister - something evil that had just stumbled across something pure and beautiful, ready to be corrupted to serve her own ends.

"If anyone should be used to barrels, it's Lube."

Hearty giggles followed Lauren all the way back to the drum setup, where she proceeded to begin pushing another two towards the lift.
