Slipping a Miklos

By: Cousin Mary

****************
SC walked into the Lounge of Dark Perk Mansion and surveyed the bar. The
room was dark, only the flicker light of the tiki torches suspended in
some gargoyles' mouths gave relief from the blackness. Kristen, the DP
bartender, stood behind the bar, polishing a glass and listening to
Carly, Ren and Iron's tale of woe. Then again, maybe it was a
joke…because it started like this:

"Three Thugs walked into a bar," Carly told Kristen, and now SC who was
listening.

~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback to earlier that night~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The three Thugs were in the mood for mischief. They entered the Raven and
after a quick look around, noticed the bartender staring at them with
decided interest. They exchanged a glance and decided to head for the
bar. Walking up, they hopped up on some stools and eyed Miklos, the
bartender, evilly. 

Almost reluctantly, as if sensing these women were going to be trouble,
the vampire wandered down to take their orders.

After exchanging another glance with her two cohorts, Ren grinned and
asked for, "A Bloody Mary, heavy on the blood."
 
This gave the bartender a pause, then realizing she meant extra tomato
juice, nodded and mixed her drink.

Next came Iron's order. As Ren was being handed her 'blood' drink, Iron
lifted one eyebrow at her fellow blonde Thug and decided to one up her,
"I want a Sex on the Beach!" The biker declared proudly.

Again, Micklos paused, going a shade paler. Most patrons either asked for
wine or beer, he wasn't used to getting requests for innuendo drinks.
Plus, he was getting the idea that these gals were trying to mess with
his head; they kept staring at him, licking their lips, leaning forward
in a way that was most distracting. But finally, he nodded at the order
and turned to Carly.

The red head smirked and winked at the bartender.

Sighing, Miklos ran one hand over his face and squirmed a bit, "And you?
What do you want?"

Carly just grinned, paused a moment as if thinking, then dimpled at the
bartender and in a very sweet voice said, "A Screaming Orgasm, please."

Miklos almost balked at that, and might have been about to say something,
when Tracy Vetter walked up.

"Hi guys!" The cop waved at her faction and sat down beside them, "Mind
if I join you?"

The three Thugs exchanged a guilty look. Had Tracy over-heard them? Were
they about to get a lecture about not teasing the vampires? 

Finally, the girls realized Tracy was waiting, "Um, no Trace," Ren smiled
while Carly and Iron nodded, "Of course not." 

Tracy smiled back, then looked at Miklos to take her order.

The vampire's expression was one of relief, surely Tracy would be a good
influence on these, these women. "And what can I get for you Det.
Vetter?"

Tracy smiled, "XXXXXXXXXX" (Censored for the protection of our younger
members <eg>) Tracy asked for the most obscenely named drink imaginable. 

Miklos groaned, his eyes turned yellow and he went running (almost
screaming) towards the employees' lounge.

The three Thugs, for their parts, were completely shocked. Ren, who'd had
a mouth full of Bloody Mary, sprayed it all over the place. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Flashback ends~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Unfortunately, 'all over the place' included Lacroix's shirt." Carly
continued, "See the General had just been coming over to talk to us,
when, uh, well Ren spit on him."

"Oh my god!" Kristen and SC chorused. 

"Yeah, well anyway, that's why we aren't allowed into the Raven for the
next two weeks." Ren explained, blushing slightly.

"Even Tracy?" SC asked, still shocked by the story.

"-Especially- Tracy!" Iron nodded, then giggled, "Apparently Lacroix
thinks we're all, get this, 'trouble!'"

"Us? Trouble?" Kristen grinned, "Never!"


And so it was that the Thugs spent the rest of the night laughing,
joking, and planning what they'd do in two weeks. 

The end.
