When Chii came out of the bathroom, she walked back up to the bar. She was surprised to find that Tifa was there, waiting for her to return. Unfortunately for Chii, the waiting was not the one she had hoped for. When Tifa spoke, she confirmed what Chii feared. "I'm sorry, Chii." Tifa apologized. "I think you're really beautiful and sexy, but I can't have sex with you. Cloud... he means too much to me. I'm sorry." Chii tried to hide her disappointment. Besides the fact that she was looking for sex, she was very attracted to Tifa in a lovey-dovey-smoochy-romance BS way ((that really won't be described here and now because I don't want to talk about it. ^^)). Chii was successful in hiding her true emotions, although Tifa sensed them; she was just a very good friend and person to do that. Chii smiled. "Well, I suppose I better go then." "Have another beer?" Tifa suggested. Chii shook her head. "No thanks." "Why not?" Chii smiled and shrugged. "Out of gil." ((they... have gil in FF7... right?)). "On the house." Tifa offered, before she even realized what she had said. Chii smiled at her, making Tifa's heart thump, and she agreed. She got a beer but this time, to her disappointment, Chii did not sit at the bar. She moved to a table all by herself near the far side of the bar. Tifa felt guilty; like she had considerably hurt Chii's feelings. The reason that she had volunteered Chii another beer, was not because she wanted to be good at her job; it was because, against what she wanted herself to believe, she wanted Chii to stay. About tewnty minutes later... Tifa was still working. It was an hour until the end of her shift. Once in a while she glanced over at Chii, but Chii never returned her gaze. She was sitting all alone at her table, almost finished with her beer. When Tifa realized this, she panicked a little. She still wanted Chii to stay; she wanted her nearby. Each time she looked at Chii, it was getting harder and harder to deny that she felt nothing for her. The more she thought it over and looked at her, the more she felt herself being pulled towards her. She did want Chii. Once Chii stood up after finishing her beer, Tifa hurried away from behind the bar, leaving it to the other bartender like she had earlier. She knew, no matter what, she had to keep Chii near her. She wanted Chii. She wanted Chii badly. But Tifa was cut off. Before Chii had had enough time to even move two feet away from her table, three scruffy men ganged up around her and hid Tifa from view. "Hello there, sweet little thing." One of them said. He was the middle one, and Chii guessed that meant he was the 'ring-leader' of their little group. Being so, he was also clearly the one who was the most shit-faced of the three. "How would you like to come with us for a little ride?" Chii looked at them, disgusted. "How would you like your balls cut off, you big baboons?" The two henchmen laughed scoffingly, as if Chii was kidding ((she wasn't)). The middle one smirked a wide smile, causing the pollution of his liquor-smelling breath to wash over Chii. She coughed and waved her hand like a fan in front of her nose, trying to get the smell away from her. "I think you misunderstood me. Didn't she, boys?" As if on cue, like they were remote-controlled, the two lowly henchmen nodded their heads and laughed. "Yeah, yeah." They chorused. "Cuz, the way I understand it, what I just asked you was not a choice question. You're going to come with us. Got it now?" Standing back defensively, Chii held up her arms, fists clenched, ready to fight. "I understand alright. I'll make your full dick circumcisions quick, but with as much pain as possible. That is, the more you try to touch me, the slower and more painful your dick-amputations will be. You got that?" The two henchmen seemed to get Chii's drift and they slowly backed off. Out of fear or even respect for their leader, did they stay and not completely retreat like little pussies. But it was clear that they knew Chii's threat was for real, and they were not willing to stay around and have their 'manly-hood' taken from them. The leader, however, still did not head. He was either too drunk or too stupid to realize the seriousness that Chii showed. Either way, he advanced slowly on her, his hand holding a concealed knife. The knife's blade caught the light of the bar and flashed. Tifa saw it. At the last second, she screamed, "CHII! LOOK OUT!" Chii headed her warning with little room to spare. She jumped out of the way and did a gymnastic-Matrix move in the air before landing on the table of another party. Scared by the violence, they hurried out and away from the bar. Others gathered around ((but at a safe distance)) chanting, "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!" The burly and drunk man then turned his attention towards Tifa. She had been the one to warn Chii and thus deprived him of his kill. Chii's mouth dropped open. "Tifa! Look out!" She screamed. The man dived at her with the knife, but she easily dodged. She stepped on his head as she flew above him, towards Chii. The man fell in a drunken stupor. Tifa landed on the table beside Chii. She smiled at her. "Ready to kick some ass?" Tifa asked. "Hell, yeah!" Chii smiled and they then proceeded to kick the shit out of the three drunken men. They quite enjoyed themselves, too. At least, they WERE enjoying themselves before the rest of their gang awoke. Despite their aching heads, they were able to make out what Tifa and Chii had done. Growling, the men ((I'm picturing them to be like minatours... not really sure why... ^^)) then got up and began to charge. Tifa, noticing this, dropped her mouth open in fear and astonishment while Chii was still kicking the bodies of the fallen and passed-out/beat up perverts. "Chii..." Tifa said a little slowly. "What?" Chii asked, still enjoying kicking the men. "RUN!" Chii looked up upon hearing the horror in Tifa's sexy voice and she saw the men running towards them. They both instantly jumped over the fallen bodies and ran out the back door of the bar, down the long street ahead of them. When they had run far enough away that they were sure they would not be caught, then they stopped and rested for breath. Tifa leaned up against the side of a building and Chii collapsed a little over-dramatically on the ground. Both breathed in and out heavily, trying to catch their breath. When they did more or less, Tifa sat down on the ground beside the sprawled Chii. "I think we're safe now." "Me too." Chii agreed. After a moment's silence, she then said, "What about your job? Weren't you still working?" Tifa laughed a little. "Yeah. I'll probably get fired. This happens to me a lot." "Running off?" Tifa smiled. "More like getting into fights then running away from it before I get pummeled. This is the second time this week." "So, you will get fired?" "Probably." Tifa replied, sighing heavily. "But the manager... he'll hire me back. He always does. With this body, I bring in a LOT of customers." "I don't doubt it." Chii said, sitting up. Tifa blushed. She would have laughed if she knew that Chii was joking, but the seriousness in her voice made her believe she was telling the truth. It made Tifa's heart thump in her chest. "Why did you help me anyway, Tifa?" Tifa was at a loss for words. She did not know what to say. Before she could respond, Chii sighed lightly. "I know why." "You do?" Tifa was surprised. "It's because you wanted me to fuck you up so badly that you could not possibly let me die. You knew you wanted a piece of me. So you helped." Tifa stared at her, speechless. She had not thought Chii to have that big of an ego... But then Chii's laughter echoed and rang through the air. Tifa felt a little embarrassed. Chii had been joking. Chii saw the embarrassment on her face, even though Tifa smiled. "Sorry." She said. "I couldn't resist." "Well... you were a little right." Tifa admitted quietly. This caused silence between them; a dead, empty silence. A very deafening silence. Tifa looked down at her knees and she felt her face burn once again. /How could you say that?!// She screamed at herself mentally. Tifa was shocked when she felt warm breath on her neck and then was met by soft, moist lips. She froze. Looking up, she met Chii's face only several inches away from her own. From her light silhouette, Tifa could make out the outline of Chii and she could see Chii's big beautiful eyes and round lips; perfect for just kissing for hours on end. Tifa felt her cheeks flush again and she could hear her heart pounding. There was still silence between them as they stared intensely at each other. Finally, Chii said quietly, "Do you want to do this, Tifa?" Tifa nodded her head. "Are you sure?" Once again she nodded her head; but this time a little more earnestly. "Then prove it. Kiss me." Tifa did, without any hestiation. Leaning close, her lips locked with Chii's. Chii was a bit surprised at the passion that was evident in her kiss. But she did not reject it. When their lips slowly drew apart, Tifa slowly opened her eyes and looked at Chii. Chii smiled. "Not bad. Let's go." Happily, Tifa stood up and went to her place where she and Chii could be alone.
