*After their chat with Slater, Kim is sent off to look for the girls again.

She marches over to Rosa's room and knocks and calls out loudly* Your butts better be in their rooms, ladies! *Then another louder knock. If Rosa's in the room she'd hear...it's possible Misty would hear the knock, as well...if she is in her room...though Kim believes that it is doubtful. She can bet that they are still out.*

 After Thorns we hit up the Zone and it was just not my thing, too many eyes looking at my bun in the oven for my fun, so we headed back to the stable, but being cooped up in here can be aggravating. We decided to climb up the fire escape and just chill on the roof, I love talking with Rosa, she gets me like no one else does. I had not even payed any attention to the time and before I knew it, it was late and we were way overdue. With the idiots missing it means Kim will be worried and Dominic as well, well shit I guess its about time to see if we have been missed. I doubt they'd hit me so I take the lead hoping to take the brunt of whatever is likely to come our way.

I open the door to the roof and slink inside, if we can at least make it to our rooms we'll be home free. Just as I think we are safe I see Kim in the hall and know our goose is cooked.

"Hey Kim, whats up?" in an innocent tone.

*Kim hears the creaking noises coming from above and turns her head, eyes shift, to look above. She shakes her head lightly and leans against the wall, arms crossed over her chest waiting for them to crawl down.* We may have a rodent problem...I think I heard rats up on the roof.

*She does not look mad, but concerned.* For you and her sake you both had better been up there, and only there, all fucking night. *Kim pushes off the wall and stomps over to Misty* Look, Mist...this place here is not a jail, you're free to do what you damn well please, you know that. But you also know that I need to know what goes on here. You know that it is not very safe for any of us wandering all over the city. From now on before you or Rosa go anywhere I want you to check in with me or Dominic...at least for a while *She wants to grab her and rattle some sence in her, but she doesn't* we have to know where you are at all times, dolly. All right? *In her tone Misty may be able to sence some sort of slowly burning concern....something is up, something is making Kim act all Mother Hen on them...even worse than usual.*

 "I just needed some air," trying to skirt the issue without an atrocious lie. She smiles at her trying to reassure her everything is alright. "Everything ok? You seem a bit tense, did something happened to the others?" with a worried face, she had forgotten all about them. It was really stupid to have gone out, especially with those two missing. She never really liked them, but living in some sort of twisted Anne Frank nightmare creates a bond with anyone sharing it with you... and without a warning the baby kicked. It was noticeable by both of them and a bit weird.

I use Misty as a shield for all Kims possible anger. I come around the corner now that things somewhat calm. I have a bit of a temper and when Kim and I get into a screaming match noone is happy.

I slide up next to Misty, hooking my thumbs into my belt loops and looking at Kim.

'Whats goin on Mamacita, your all worked up?'

If you need air open a window, hunny *Kim looks at Misty's belly when the baby kicks, her eyes wide* Fuck me dead...*she utters under her breath then swiftly lifts her eyes back to Misty* Are things ever ok for us? For you and the baby's safty...don't do anything stupid *she casts a look at Rosa as if blaming her for Misty's going out and putting them in danger.*

Maybe the big bad wolf got the others *she shrugs...the two others were obviously not Kim's favourites and she does nothing to show them different. They kept their distance from her and caused more trouble than she cared to have...she did not want that in her House. She also had a feeling Rosa and Misty weren't too close with the other two either...and Dom sometimes got edgy when he spoke of them.

Kim's sea-green eyes shift to Rosa and her big-bad-gangsa-girl attitude.* I just want you girls to check in with me and Dominic *she repeats* before going out...until I know exactly what's brewing. And when I know I'll let you both know. *Her gaze is hard on Rosa...they are more alike than any of them like to admit...tough as nails on the outside but with a gooey like marshmellows inside when it came to certain people they cared for.*

 "Hey I had a question. I ran into that weird guy that lives in the basement, is he alright? I mean he kinda looked at me, like he could see right through me. It kinda creeped me out and that's saying a lot," with a shiver as if she were a wet dog shaking off water.

"Have you seen him yet?" looking toward Rosa.

'Theres always fuckin something...' I mumble like an angsty teen with an overprotective mother. Ill let all my comments about coddling and paranoia go when Misty changes the subject to the creeper in the basement.

'Yeah that dude needs some lotion or some shit... he makes corpses look healthy.'

Kind of an ironic statement from me, im long dead and my heart still beats.

Leave the creatures in the basement alone, girls *she says teasingly to Misty.

She shoots a scolding look to Rosa, yes, they are very much like family...if only she could ground them but they need to turn tricks.*

"Don't worry about me, that guys a freak. I'm real sorry about making you worry Kim. I just needed some fresh air, this Anne Frank thing can sometimes really get to you, you know..." with a smile and nod.

"How's Dominic, seems like its been a week since I seen him last?"

Dominic is worried when you two wander the streets without letting us know where you are. *Her sea-green eyes cloud over, she sighs and shakes her head lightly* He's trying to figure out what to do to keep us all safe...

I shuffle my feet a moment. Dominic and Kim never appreciate my gang related shit. The crazy chicks i run with are good for smashing up anyone who breaks the rules but Dom seems to prefer i keep my buisness as far from the stable as it can get....

In the end i decide to speak up. Worse they can do is freak til i dissapear for another week.

'I got somethin Dom might wanna hear about. Me an Loca came across someones stash... could fetch us some dough or a nice trade maybe...'

*Kim's eyes hook upon Rosa, did she just say...stash?* You did not! *she says in a low hiss not sure if this girl is insane or just got the balls of Leonidis.* Oh, Rosa, you little nutcake...tell me no one saw you *she groans.* Not good, oh fuck me, Rosa this is not good!

'Aw Chill Mamacita. You know im slicker than that!'

I give her a dramatically insulted face and a quick once over, feet to face. I cross my arms over my chest and continue.

'But ya know, these kind of things are best handled with the quickness. Smashin peoples toes only confuses them for so long...'

Girl you bring any more trouble to this house and I will slap you silly *she wags her finger near Rosa's face like a parent would when scolding a naughty child.*

I grit my teeth at Kim when she starts waving her finger in my face. I should bite my tongue, shes just worked up thinking we snuck out, but in the end my bravado wins out, i swat her hand away.

'Get that ass smellin finger out my face bitch!'

I scowl a minute before i growl in high pitched frustration. I will brush past her and head up the stairs, yelling for Dominic. If he doesnt like what i have in mind they can all blow me, ill dissapear again.

'Dom! get your pimp ass out here please before i wreck a bitch!'

*Well Kim is the kind that can hold a temper down until need be sometimes, luckily this is one of those times. When her finger's swatted away she crosses her arms over her chest, and smiles sickly-sweet* Hon, it only smells like that cuz I was trying to pry that pole out of your ass. *Then she looks at Misty knowing she'd never act like a shit like Rosa does, so for that she offers her one of her nice smiles, but quickly looks away again, her gaze following Rosa.*

Of course Dom heard Rosa yell for him.. and he came from a room down the hall where he was cleaning and thinking...

He looks between Rosa and Kim, feeling the tension... And he simply smirks, looking them both over, running a hand through his hair.

"Shit... Its been a while since I've seen a chick fight.."

He laughs. A switch has been flipped...nothing could bother him right now.. not that anyone would see anyway...

But he gets serious after a moment, a small grin still on his lips.


"Whats the problem?"

Arms cross over his chest.

*Kim chuckles at Dominic's comment about the fight* you fucking wish.

*Like a sultery cat she moves closer to him and shrugs* Little Miss Mexico here may have done something stupid...and for her sake and ours I hope it turns out into something good. *She gives Rosa a look, then turns and looks back to Dominic like a mother waiting for the father to respond.*

I grab my crotch in exaggerated gangsta fashion at Kim when she calls me little miss mexico. Id probably shank the bitch if i thought it would even bother her...

'Dom, me an Loca came across a good sized stash of weapons. We snatched the shit and stashed it somewhere real safe. But we still wanna drop it as fast as possible... ya know, just in case someones lookin for it.'

I glance at Misty, she probably wont see the merit of my decision either. Hell im not sure i even do, snatching someones heaters and re-selling them probably wasnt the brightest thing ive ever done.

'Maybe that punk motherfucker whos always climbin in your window needs some heat to start the revolution or whatever the fuck hes sellin you these days.'
