He felt something hard touch his back, between his shoulders.

Fi guessed it was most likely a pistol. However, he didn't act like someone with a gun against his back. Instead of being afraid or listening to the attacker, as if nothing had happened, he turned around, at the same time, dropping the food bag from his hand, he pulled out a previously stolen toy from his pocket. A super hero with a robotic half body and dog ears, then shouted:

Fi- No, you don't! Protective shield!

He held the toy out in front of him and pretended that he really had created a magical protective shield with the figurine.

??? - Oh no! My bullet missed! The shield protected him! But I still have an ace up my sleeve! That's it, a poisonous gas that even your shield can't stop!

The attacker was a girl with short blue hair. Releasing her toy gun, she joined in the further fun she had started. From her pocket she pulled a small oblong device that had a button on the end. She pressed it, and pink smoke started coming out of the device, though not much.

Fi - I'm suffocating! I'm suffocating! But so are you, because you forgot to bring your mask! 

??? - What!? It was a double-edged weapon! I didn't foresee that! Air! 

They both pretended that the smoke that escaped from the object was poisonous. And to escape from this smoke, they ran to the window at the end of the room and opened it, trying to get some fresh air. 

Fi - It was close, we almost got poisoned!

 ??? - I know! Luckily it's all over!

After this short action, they leaned against the window sill and breathed evenly to calm their hearts from the sudden fun. The girl turned her back to the window and sat on the sill. It was Feli, a little over a year younger, Fi's sister.

Like her brother, she had round eyes and a slightly round face. She had the same sense of idiot as her brother. She was a little shorter, and her physique looked athletic. Though she had no fangs, she had horns just like her brother. Black, two small ones in the middle of the head. Unlike her brother, she had black wings at the bottom of her back. And unfortunately, she only had one arm. Only the left one, the one that should be on the right, was missing. Her clothes were loose and comfortable, and a necklace hung from her neck that looked maybe like a sun, maybe a star, or maybe a snowflake. Hard to say.

She looked at her brother and at the toy he was holding. 

Feli - Where did you find this figurine? It is great!

Fi - Someone threw it on the balcony.

Feli- What!? Seriously!? How could anyone do that!

She was indignant at this stranger's behavior and puffed out her cheeks in anger. 

Fi - And Felyy! Look, look!

He ran closer to the front door. At the moment when their pretend fight began, he dropped the lunch bag from his hands. He picked it up and pulled out two kebabs wrapped in paper.

Fi - I beat up some guys and Kebamakio gave them to me for free!

One of them was handed to Feli. The girl immediately unwrapped the dish and bit into the middle.

Feli- Mmmmm~! Good!

Fi- Isn't it!?

They both savored their free lunch while Fi told her about the day's events.

Feli - Guess what I bought today!

After the meal was over, it was time for the younger sister to tell something.

Fi - Comics?

Feli - No.

Fi - Candy?

Feli - No.

Fi - Some chocolate!?

Feli - Neither.

She smiled every time Fi missed, and swayed from right to left to the rhythm of his questions.

Fi - Awesome t-shirt with King Kong playing with a toy octopus with only five tentacles and bat wings while sitting on top of a tall tree from which you can pick chocolate cubes!?

Feli - Wha... I want one! But no! You didn't guess it, haha!

Fi - Theeeen, ummmm.........

He racked his brain to think of something else.

Feli - Are you giving up?

Fi - Yhm.

He nodded in confirmation.

Feli - Come on, follow me!

She walked over to the only door in the room other than the front door. She opened it and entered the bathroom. Fi, growing curious, began to peek over her shoulder, trying to see what she was up to.

The girl walked over to the towel in which there was something wrapped. Carefully, so that Fi wouldn't notice what was inside, she grabbed the mysterious object. She looked back at her brother with an evil smile.

Feli - Orient!

She quickly turned around, not giving the boy time to react, and a stream of water flew from the mysterious object, which completely wet the boy's face.

Feli - I present to you, our new water guns!

Fi - Extra!

He wiped the water from his face with his hands.

Fi - Do you have another one?

He looked at the girl, and she, in response, tossed him the gun she was holding and reached for the towel, pulling out another.

Each holding a water pistol, prepared for battle. They stood facing each other in the bathroom, their weapons pointing downwards.

Fi - Ready?

Feli - Yes!

Fi - Well, three,

Feli - Two,

Fi - One,

Fi, Feli - Start!

The second round of their fight has begun! Feli sprayed water right in her brother's face, but Fi did the same aiming at her chest.

Avoiding Feli's water shot, the boy ran out of the bathroom to the main room. He jumped over the couch hiding behind it and aimed at Feli, who just ran out of the bathroom.

Feli didn't dodge the blow, but instead decided to take advantage of the moment when Fi leaned out from behind the couch, and she took aim at him, hitting him squarely in the head.

Their firing was picking up speed. Amazing and agile dodges would put anyone in amazement and disbelief. Feli would be definitely more accurate than Fi, if not for that the boy was good at dodging, so every shot she took that would hit him in exactly critical places, missed.

Feli - I will win!

She happily announced to her brother after she had hit him in the head for the sixth time.

Fi - No way

They were on par and went neck and neck with the number of hits. Their fun creates unbearable noise that for sure disturbed the neighbors.

Fi aimed again at Feli, who, to avoid the water blow, jumped on the cupboard which was behind her. However, this cabinet was covered with a lot of items, there was some photo frame, clothes, plates and a few other bits and pieces, so when Feli jumped on the cupboard, she tripped over the items on it, and fell down, knocking down the entire creed.

The fall of furniture produced a big bang, which I'm sure even more distant neighbors could hear. Things that were on the cupboard were now lying on the ground. A frame with a picture of little Fi, little Feli and a woman with black hair, wings and horns, who was probably their mother, was all broken.

Feli - Oh nooo... Garef will get angry!

Fi - She'll be here soon! Let's run!

Right after the big bang, they both started to be afraid of something, so much so that they ran up in the blink of an eye to the door. They opened them, intending to escape the apartment, but a large mountain stood in their way.

Or at least that's how it can be initially described, because it wasn't a mountain that stood in front of them, but a huge woman. She was a bit older and quite fat. She has sharp teeth and a scary face,

her ears were oddly shaped, like leaves or a coral reef, her skin was grayish shade, and the curly hair was green. She was Garef, the owner of the flat where Fi and Feli lived.

Fi - Through the window!

The command was obeyed by Feli right away. As fast as they could, they turned to start running to the window they were about to jump out of. But they were too slow.

The scary woman grabbed them by their T-shirts and pulled them close.

Garef - What have you guys done again!?

She had a heavy and scary voice. Fi and Feli knew it was too late to escape, so after Garef let go of their T-shirts, they cuddled closer together in fear of the scary lady. And shaking horrified, Fi answered her,

Fi - Yo, Garef!

He greeted her as if nothing had happened. Waving his hand in front of his forehead.

Garef - Answer!

Fi - We, we didn't do anything. I do not know what you mean!

And although the boy denied that the noise came from their room, the behavior betrayed him, it was obvious at first glance that he was lying. Though of course no matter what he said or how he acted, Garef was sure it was them who were responsible for everything.

Garef - Don't talk back to me, brat! What have you screwed up this time! wardrobe again? Mirror? Or maybe a lamp!?

The woman pushed the two in front of her away and entered their apartment. As always, there was one big mess. There were clothes and food scraps everywhere. In addition, in all corners of the room you could see figurines, toys or comics with which siblings are having fun.

Garef - I'm used to your shit, but why the hell is it everywhere wet!?

Feli - Well, because we were shooting water guns.

Garef - In the apartment!?

Feli - ....Is that bad?

The girl scratched her head, not understanding Garef's anger.

Garef - You are absolutely forbidden to play with water in the apartment! I will see again that everything is so wet here and I'm kicking you out! And what does that mean!

She pointed to the broken frame with the photo inside.

Garef - This is the only picture left of your mother! Take care of it a bit!

She grabbed the frame and looked at it for a moment. Then she carefully put the broken item down on the floor.

Garef - You're lucky you didn't break the cupboard. I will never buy you anything again, so better watch out! And you're supposed to clean the hell up!

Fi, Feli - Yes!

They responded like children in kindergarten.

The scary lady came out of their apartment and gave a menacing look even before closing the door. Which made them shiver as they felt the cold flowing from her eyes.

Fi - We're alive.

Feli - We survived.

Fi, Feli - We survived an encounter with a monster!

Feli - Now nothing is scary for us!

Fi - We just became brave warriors who drove the evil monster out of ours castle!

Feli - Everyone cheers! Applause and ..................................

They clapped their hands and rejoiced as if it were indeed a medieval celebration party defeating the dragon by brave knights. However, they finally noticed that the door to the apartments were ajar, and the monster they thought they had chased out peered through.

This time there was no help for them,

Garef - WHO are you calling a monster!!!???

She entered their apartment again and punched them on the head, then turned around and this time it came out for real.

Fi, Feli - De...defeated.....

Lying on the ground, they spoke in fear-filled voices.

*********************************

It was a strip club. Beautiful ladies wearing revealing clothes walked around the guests, attracting their eyes with their beautiful bodies. The club was filled with dark pink and blue colors. There was smoke in the air, which added to the atmosphere of the place. Club was divided into two parts, the first being around the dancing pipes. There were tables with chairs spread out, where customers sat, and beautiful waitresses moved between them. There was a little crowd and noise. The second part included private, round couches placed on the periphery of the room. It was often necessary to pay extra for them, but they were definitely more convenient.

In the club, music played non-stop, played by a band, including scantily clad girls

One of them, the one who played the guitar, stood out more than the others, but not because of her beauty, but by strangeness. Even in a world where all sorts of intelligent races have walked, her appearance stood out. Her skin was pink. Her waist was morbidly narrow, although it was the result of her genetics, not the disease. She also had no stupas and her legs were in pointed shape. She had elongated ears, and not far from them, in the middle of her head, only one big eye. Her hair was maroon-pink, combed in a mohawk. She cannot be named ugly, but her appearance was unique.

Woman - Trix, listen, one of the guests wants to get to know you better.

And this exceptional-looking girl was approached by one of the female employees, a waitress if I have to be more precise.

Trix stopped playing the guitar and turned to the woman.

Trix - Are you sure it's me? Maybe you got it wrong with Leno?

She pointed to the other guitarist, a beautiful woman who had played in a band with her.

Woman - No, I even asked more, it's about you.

Trix - Another freak? Only they want me.

She put the guitar behind her and followed the woman to one of the private boxes.

Woman - To my surprise, not this time. The client is a rich asshole son our club's biggest sponsor, so be careful.

Trix - Asshole? If it turns out that I'm only going there to make fun of my appearance, then believe me, you will pick them up off the floor.

Woman - How scary. It's there.

She pointed to box number 3 and sent the Trix there.

Woman - Good luck.

Trix - Thanx!

A couple of young people were sitting on a round sofa and you can see they are thirsty for fun and alcohol men, the youngest was maybe 19 and the oldest 26. Besides them, there were sitting a couple of other female employees who entertained them.

Trix - Hey, I'll make sure again! It was me you wanted to invite?

Trix entered their entourage. She seemed quite a loose and relaxed person, not having interaction problems.

Man - Not us, but me.

One of them answered, the one in the middle. It was easy to see that he was boss here. His legs rested on the top of the glass table. He was wearing a leather jacket and expensive branded clothes. Green leaves replaced his hair and he had elven ears. He was even a handsome and well-built young man. Though he was far from the type that Trix liked.

After making sure it was her they wanted, Trix threw herself on the couch right next to the man.

Trix - So what? Beautiful sexy girls have already bored you?

She went about it casually, as if she were at home with her friends. She also reached for chips that were on the table and picked up a bottle of beer.

Man - Not so much bored as sometimes it is worth introducing some novelty to life.

What's your name?

Trix - Trix.

Man - Asil.

He introduced himself and put his arm around her.

Asil - Sometimes when I come here, I see that you play on stage, but I heard nothing about you.

Trix - Hah! And that's quite an interesting topic you've brought up, because you see, I think that's a bit about me you've heard of, but you don't know it. Do you know anything about the "Old House Monster" or "Devil from above the water"?

Asil - Yes, I've heard something about these town legends.

Trix - Then you've heard of me! I've been to those places and some kids saw me, and started spreading rumors about the monster! Look how popular I am! Ha ha!

She laughed at how other people saw her and turned it into a joke. She was impetuous and seemed strong.

Asil - It's a pity, even if I go to those places, I now know that the monsters that are there don't exist.

Trix - Sorry for ruining the fun!

She took a few more long gulps of beer, as did the other guests in the box, and the fun began.
