Call of the Wild

Followed

Kalila walked into the bar and found a seat at the end of the bar like she normally did. She didn't pay much attention to the people around her. Most people didn't pay much attention to her, unless she was in a ring of course, and that's just the way she liked it! Her two students stayed with their backs to her so she wouldn't notice them watching her.

Tig had a seat leaving just one seat between them. She was already looking at a menu when the biker sat down next to her. The SAA looked over to where the rest of his brothers. Jax was watching them intently but nothing seemed to be happening. Billy finally made his way back down to their end of the bar.

"Tig! Need another beer?" Billy asked the biker

"Yeah, thanks." Tig replied

"What about you darlin'? What can I get for you?" Billy asked, turning his attention to Kalila

"Well I'd like the full nacho platter with chili and everything else except Jalepenos & sour cream, a shot of Vodka, and a Dr. Pepper." She stated

"Anything Darlin'." Billy laughed before leaving the pair to get what they ordered

Tig's beer and Kalila's shot arrived shortly. Jax watched as she took her shot like a pro and didn't even make a face like it burned. He was quite impressed with her. She kept her head down and tried to stay out of the way. As long as no one bothered her, she had no reason to fight. The three gentlemen at the table kept their eyes on her and tried to keep their conversation from being over-heard. Tig sat there in silence keeping an eye on her.

Her dinner arrived along with her Dr. Pepper. With a smile, she ordered another two shots of Vodka. Tig looked over to her dinner and suddenly became hungry. She was eating and just minding her own business. Everyone in the bar seemed content and minding their own business as well so Billy walked back down to talk to her.

"How was your day, Darlin'?" He asked

She swallowed the bite she had before answering, "It was good. Got a new client today so my class is up to five."

"That's good to hear." Billy replied with a grin

"If you hear anyone looking for a good workout, send 'em our way. Don wants to try and promote the business as much as possible." Kalila explained

"Well I will certainly pass the word along!" Billy exclaimed as someone called for him at the other end of the bar, "Excuse me."

She simply went back to eating her dinner. Tig remained quiet while the rest of his brothers sat together talking, laughing, and enjoying themselves. Jax couldn't help but watch her. This woman so intrigued him! There were so many questions he wanted answered about her but knew it would be some time before he could get any of them answered. Happy and Chibs were keeping an eye on their three new "friends". The Tacoma Killah was a bit suspicious at their behavior.

She enjoyed her dinner and waited for Billy to come back over so she could pay out and go home. Tig watched the interaction between their friend and this woman. He asked how her dinner was and she told him how much she enjoyed them. She paid her tab and gave a generous tip. Tig looked over to his Prez who nodded at the woman signaling he wanted the SAA to follow her.

As soon as she left the bar, she felt like she was being followed. Growing up on the streets she knew what being followed felt and sounded like. She knew better than to head home. The unknown biker was ahead of Tig but that wasn't going to stop the SAA from finding out where she lived. The more details they knew about this woman, the better.

As soon as Kalila, the rival biker, and Tig left the bar, Jax made his way to where his brother had been sitting. Billy greeted Jax cordially as he saw the blond biker having a seat at the bar.

"Hey Billy." Jax stated

"How's it going, Jax?" Billy replied

"Hey man. Can you tell me what you know about the woman who was sitting right there?" Jax questioned

"I don't know much. She's only been in town a few weeks. Works at that new martial arts studio. Doesn't have many friends. Come in here most nights for dinner." Billy told the biker

"She doesn't have a home?" Jax asked curiously

"No, she's staying at one of those run-down motels off of Gotch Street but she's currently looking for a permanent residence." Billy informed the blond man

"I see. Thanks, Billy." Jax smiled at the older barkeep

As soon as Jax returned to his brothers, he informed Clay of this new bit of information. As he, Clay, Opie, and Chibs talked about things Opie had come up with an idea. Fix up one of their safe houses but have it bugged with microphones and hidden cameras, so they could keep an eye on her. Well not just keep an eye on her but make sure these rival bikers didn't hurt her or ambush her.

"That's actually a really good idea. We have a small little cottage on Sooter Street but we'll need the prospects to give it a good cleaning then bug it." Jax said, putting his two cents in

Clay just nodded, "That's the prospect's top priority. Get them on it now. Clean all night if they have to. It needs to be ready to show by tomorrow afternoon."

"On it." Chibs stated, getting up from his seat and flipping his phone open

Tig kept a good distance between himself and the rival biker but also made sure he had eyes on her. They had to have walked two miles zig-zagging across town when he turned a corner. The other biker was on the ground unconscious. Tig was smart enough to grab the guy's wallet before heading down the alleyway. He could see her shadow walking quickly, so he knew he still on the right path. She didn't feel safe, so she headed straight to the hotel to grab her stuff. She wasn't going to stay there over night with someone trying to follow her!

He waited in the shadows once they made it to the motel she was staying at. She was in and out in less than five minutes. While she was inside, he texted Clay wanting to know what he wanted Tig to do. Within a minute he got a reply asking for the address & room number and telling Tig to keep following the target. It was going to be a very long night!
