The feeling of the wind against my hair and skin made the 2 beasts inside throttling the bike even further on the empty roads that lay ahead. "Faster...!" The cheetah growled as I worked the throttle to give it more gas and I soon hit the almost 120 km/h on the Phantom, leaving a trail of dust and exhaust smoke behind as the Kawasaki trailed abreast to mine.We soon reached the parking lot of Uncle Bob"s and I kicked the side stand and parked the bike. "Whoa girl...! You seemed to be hungry and can"t wait to dig in? You sure I"m a rather good mood today."
HaiLoong remarked, as he parked his Kawasaki besides me and took off his full-face helmet, revealing his clean-shaven head and face towards me. He smiled as he knew that I would normally pig out at Uncle Bob"s, every time after I had completed a project with the Boss of the a.s.sociation, Leonard.
We were greeted warmly by the proprietor as we headed upstairs and we seated ourselves at the balcony, overlooking the parking lot and the lazy town that would be filled with certain unrest in the middle of the night.
We don"t normally talk about work after we both got off from each others a.s.signment. I looked at HaiLoong across me and wondered how many times we had been together like this since we met and clicked almost immediately.
Maybe the Mountain Lion inside me was the first to recognise HaiLoong as a potential male that could satisfy both the animal inside of us. As for the Cheetah, it would only appear when I need speed and stealth the most.
"Hey, girl, what"s up? You gonna have the usual rib-eye steak and Tbone, medium rare, heaps of Barbequed sauce with coleslaw and corn at the sides? It is darn early today and you"re our first customer of the day ..! And how about you, young man...whatcha gonna git yourself today?"
Hailong smiled his biggest smile and showed his great white teeth to Uncle Bob"s wife who was usually behind the counter and taking in the cash, but since it had just opened for business in the day, she ran the place while her husband will be in the kitchen, manning those meats and stuff.
"I would take the same as my partner today ma"am and we would like to have a pot of java, if you may. Thank you..."
"Alright dearies, we"d be right back soon. The meats still in the freezer so it would take a while to defrost the meat... Unless you both wanna bite into raw meat... Hah... Haa..."
"Meat...meat...give me meat... Roooaarrrr..." the Mountain Lion raised its head upon hearing the meat and was almost as if it would shapeshift right here and now to feast on defrosted meat from the kitchen. I mentally nudged its head back with my foot, and it went back into its s.p.a.ce and growled unhappily.
The pot of coffee came first and HaiLoong was gentleman enough to pour mine first and his later. We talked about bikes which were my favourite topic as I had only gotten the Honda Phantom salvaged from my old dad"s garage.
Biking was a way of freedom for me, I love the rush of wind against my fair and hair. The thrill of adrenaline as Cheetah would prance around and made me pull on the throttle more and dash through the streets like as if Cheetah was pawing my right hand and throttling the bike through the wilderness.

The feeling of being free and unharnessed besides being inside a metal death trap would be the last thing I would dream of, as I revved up and let the bike go to wherever the road leads.
Yup, straddling a Phantom between my legs, the vibrations and the unbridled speed and exhilaration that was shared between me and Cheetah is unfathomable.
Outside of my work, jeans and flannel shirt would just be fine by me, but when I arrive to work, it would be leather tights and jacket, all studded with pure silver at the vital points. I would wear a kind of choker that would be leather and also studded with silver to protect the jugular and the nape of my neck.
I wear a low heel leather boot with hidden silver blades on the front and silver spurs as well. Whatcha know, I"m a cowgirl in an SM leather outfit and silver studs... Except for a whip of course.
I have my own a.r.s.enal of cold and hot weapons too stashed away in my little office at home. That little office was just a small storeroom where I kept my gear and kinds of stuff.
I have a short 3-foot Kodachi which was dipped in holy water because there"s no point having silver on it since it would weaken the weapon.
I would be wearing a gauntlet with retractable claws just like Wolverine and that too is blessed in holy water. A kurisagama and a long chain would be by my side as well in case I lost my close quarters combat cold weapons, which I never did...!
I had a set of throwing knives or Kunai tipped with silver as well that I had only used once on an occasion a long time ago.
For hot weapons, I would prefer my sawed-off 6 shot 12 gauge shotgun that was filled with silver ball bearings. A .38 snub nose as well as a rare .40 with a superb stopping power but yet reduces the effect of an exit wound. All the rounds had been tipped with silver as to avoid getting too much that would affect its trajectory.
I wouldn"t want to hit any bystanders by mistake, would I? Yup, that me alright... A Vamp Contract Killer. That job is an open secret between me and HaiLoong only the Beasts had remained a secret till now.
You can"t be too carefree and careless when dealing with these "Night Crawlers" as they were banned and barred from the a.s.sociation for harming the humankind. The first protocol of the Order was breached by them and there"s no turning back as they transform the humans in becoming their "Blood Servants".
The a.s.sociation maintains the balance between the so-called new-age Drakulas or Vampires that no human life is to be taken. A group of scientists had already made a breakthrough subst.i.tute for the compatibility of blood consumption from bovine or porcine.
The a.s.sociation also maintains the count for the number of "Blood Servants" brought in before the Order has been established and maintain at that figure only...No more and no less.
Our rib-eye steak and Tbone came and we soon dig in. Both the beasts within me was enjoying the meal as well and were saying I should eat more often as well. This gives them the energy they need and its supplements as well. If I do not have a regular intake of meat daily, I would not be able to focus and loses a lot of energy when I shapeshift.
Furthermore, frankly speaking... Those darn energy bars do not work for me and my beasts. I could consume a Colonel"s bucket on my own, a pile of rib-eye steaks, shawarma and burgers but I would gain a pound nor I would have a d.a.m.n big b.u.t.t like the others.
These provide the sustenance as well as for me. And maintenance for this would really burn a hole through my pockets if not for the Contracts I get up 2 to 3 times a week.
Sheesh... Shape-shifting is sure an expensive way to maintain.
