.Illegal Activity.
Bree sighed, taking the small succubus by the hand. A scarf was wrapped around her head, to hide the horns from the world. Kizu's two small hands clinging desperatly to the woman's much larger one. A smile lit the little girls face, they were going to get her a toy! It'd be her first.
Bree slipped into the store, giving a glance around. ******** allways wanted to take her child as soon as they found out what she was... It wasn't right. Her fur bristled slightly, before she gave a sharp growl to someone who'd apparently snuck up behind her.
The man was wearing a labcoat, large glasses, each with a "D" printed on them. he gave a startled yelp, arms tossing the papers in his hand into the air as he covered his head.
Bree blinked "Aa, I'm so sorry. I was thinking about something else... Are.. you okay?"
The man cowered, giving a shaky nod as he gathered his papers "I.. I haven't.. been out of the lab. In years. Ahaha..."
Another blink was given to the strange little man before her "Okay.. Well. yea. Good luck with that." She turned to join her "child" only to be stopped by a hand grasping her arm.
"W-Wait!" The man's look changed, almost a dark look: We know what you've been hiding. You could be in alot of trouble..."
Bree shot a look of death to the man, fur rising as she let out a low growl. "If you wanna threaten me..." she mumbled lowly.
The man stepped back, shaking his head "No no... Just come by our facility. We have sss-s-something that might intrest you."
Bree took the paper, glaring at it a moment, "Hey who..." she blinked, the man was gone... Hm. Oh well. "Kizu, you find what you want yet?"
"Not yet mama!"

She had prolonged this trip for as long as possible... Until she finally felt the eerie paranoia of the thread get to her. Here she was... She had left Kizu at home. Though perhaps not the best idea, Bree wasn't the best mom.
She peered over the doors, entering slowly... She wasn't two seconds into the empty quiet before a tech greeted her. A different one than before... he urged her to follow him down the hall and into a room. It was small, a couch at one end and a desk at the other. The tech positioned himself there, and gestured towards the couch.. "Have a seat Mrs.Zepke.."
She frowned... "Does everyone know me here?" she fell back into the couch, crossing her legs. The tech gave a light chuckle, but that was it... "Alright... Your file is here." He spoke up, "It seems you'll be getting a young boy." The tech almost flinched at the file, the tiger shark had not been a fun project for anyone there... "Wait here."
Bree raised a brow at his expression... "Don't got anywhere else to go." She sighed, watching him leave. Her eyes automatically glanced around the room... Looking for cameras or any of the sort. They knew things about her... Things she'd gotten away with for years. It made her uneasy... how many others would catch up with her?
Thoughts were broken by a loud yelp, the tech ripping the door open in a display of emotions that hadn't been there before, practically flinging the shark boy off of his arm and into the woman who was supposed to take him. Bree caught instinctivly, eyes going wide as the man's white coat started to soak in a distinct crimson color. She dropped her gaze down the the more than irritated toddler... "What IS this?"
"A project..." the tech hissed, grasping his arm to try and stop the bleeding. Thank God the teeth were still relitivly small in comparison to what a normal Shark would have... It still hurt like a b***h. "Tiger shark. He's yours now.." The last almost seemed cocky...
"And what if i don't take him?" Bree snapped back, staring at the little bundle of the exact oposite of joy.
"You can go with us.. Or against us Mrs.Zepke." He frowned somewhat at their offer being possibly refused.. Though it was just his job. "If you're with us, we'll insure you're protected... If you go against us... We-ll..." He drifted into a sing song tone... "I guess we'll just release this to the public." He swivled his monitor around. Bree's eyes widened as she leaned forward to try and read all the print... "I'm sure science would love to hear about an animal in human form? Moreso how you've prolonged your life and managed to raid museums all over Gaia..."
Bree growled under her throat... Not cool. He was right... "Fine." she snapped, lifting the bundle. "I agree... and I want a contract in the next week."
"Alright, Mrs.Zepke."
She frowned... this was not how she liked to live. Pressed under someone elses thumb... She needed to be free, and blackmail ceritantly wasn't that... But if she took this thing, then she would be... and that was releif enough for now as she turned tail and stormed back down the halls towards her car.
Jostled, the shark boy shifted uncomfortably, his tail... his arm. She was hurting him, whoever this was was hurting him! He frowned, reacting the way he always did... Chomp!
"YEOWCH" Could be heard echoed around hte first floor of D-corp, the tech tending to his shark-wound simply grinned...
Bree was going to have a looong year...
