Commission 1

It's the next day already.

So far The Leaflet, our bookstore has been going smoothly. Bunny was helping the customers at the register with one of our Bangboos while Spot was fixing up his. I had already headed out despite after what happened the other day. They were relieved I was ok...but they still worried. Ah. Someone walked in. Our lovely yet sly information and supplies provider: Rubin. The kitsune lady looked at the two and grinned.

"Awww the little doggy and bun bun today? I'm guessing the dragon cutie went on her own again huh? A shame I missed her~" Rubin sighed "Hows your....business going hm? Need any help?"

"We're fine....so please stop trying to steal from my cash register," Bunny deadpanned.

"Ah- It seems I'm losing my touch! I'm getting old...~" Rubin sighs. Bunny rolled her eyes. Even if Rubin gets older, she still looks young. Then again Bunny didn't like her or Nicole. Them and their...stupid lucky genes.

"You're glaring holes in her chest Bunny...at least make it LESS obvious..." Spot muttered sheepishly. "Um....is there anything you need today?"

Rubin giggles and gives him a headpat, "Just visiting my favorite business partners~ but I also wanted to let you know to avoid the companion hollow today. The vision corporation is moving bombs to a detonation area soooo...could be dangerous!"

........Oh they got a bad feeling about that.

"Mind uh...sharing the location...?" Bunny asked. Spot was already searching it up on the H.D.D. As he did, Nekomata ran in with Nicole's Bangboo.

"We have an emergency! Nicole and the others are- MMMPH-!" She was hushed by Rubin's tail.

"Be a liiiittle more careful kitty. There's people here..." Rubin side eyed her threateningly despite the sweet smile she had, making Nekomata a little freaked out. But luckily she was taken to the staff room to explain what happened.

"T-They ended up staying to help the people stuck there! If they don't get out of there, they'll be blown to smithereens! So I came here to ask for YOUR help!" Nekomata was genuinely worried. They could even see that. She wasn't a bad person at least.

Spot nodded, "Dammit....W-We have to get in contact with Lisa..." He managed to connect to me finally, "Lisa? Can you hear me...?"

"....yup. And no I'm not heading back until these people have been extracted," I said bluntly, already knowing they were gonna try convincing me otherwise, "I've made up my mind. I'm not changing it-"

"YOU CRAZY IDIOT-" Bunny screamed through communication, "Can you at least inform us BEFORE attempting to go against a random corporation?! We could get exposed! And boom you AND the cunning hares arrested!" Ow my fucking ears-

Nicole giggles, "Oh please Public security would be so wrapped up in THIS scandal that we could easily slip past them~! We just need a way to escort these gold mines- er- these LOVELY people to safety!"

"Well....problem with that is going through the hollow. To avoid more fights and protect the people, we'll need to cut through the hollow. And even with FAIRY hijacking the train for transportation....we still need to worry about the possibility of corruption," Spot sighs as he works hard tapping away at the computers, "We COULD make the hollow smaller by defeating a superior ethereal in that area but that's too risky- i would suggest trying to weaken it before using the explosives to finish it off....but it's safer to-"

"So-" I cut him off, "I just....gotta beat its ass?" Sounding a little too excited making everyone sigh.

"W-Wait you really don't have to-!" I hung up on him, "It was only a suggestion...! ....shit."
