Chapter 5: Chapter 5

Kiko tried to get up, a few times, but Queenie’s training and the subsequent relief had made Kiko aware of an exhaustion she had never really felt before. And so, instead of walking dignified towards the showers, Kiko was carried in the arms of the Demon, like a young child. It made her cheeks flush with shame, but soon, something else entered her head, something she just couldn’t keep to herself.
“Ok, what the actual frack. This place is huge, but from the outside it is barely bigger than an average house” she exclaimed, looking up at Queenie’s amused grin.
“Ahh, that little thing. Well, you see, this area has Space bent around it. We aren’t exactly sure why, or what is causing it, but it allows for a vast infrastructure over a small area, like we have pulled off here. Ever wondered why the SIR headquarters weren’t in some major Capital city? This is why. Uniquely placed to deal with our needs without having to give half the city over to do it” She explained, before arriving at the showers, having set a brisk pace to get there. “Now, you need some help getting clean? I can’t promise my hands won’t wander while I assist you…” She cracked a broad grin, openly admiring Kiko’s body. The idea, however good it was, was one that Kiko couldn’t quite deal with yet, and so shook her head, and took a shaky step towards the cubicles while Queenie stayed in the seating area. Why there was a seating area in the showers, Kiko was not entirely sure, but it was probably there for a reason.
“No, I am fine. Thank you” Her determination to not get sexed up in the showers by her new friend gave her the strength she needed to remain standing while she cleaned herself, brushed her hair through, and then eventually switched off the water and got out to dry herself.

Wrapped up in towels – even though Queenie had had an intimate look at her body, she was still conscious of just showing it off willy-nilly – she saw the Demon woman with a broad grin on her face. Recognising the grin as one of mischief, Kiko gave her a withering stare.
“What have you done?” She asked, in what she hoped was an assertive tone.
“Done? Nothing, I’m a good girl” Queenie tried, but couldn’t keep a straight face, and so broke into laughter. “Ok, fine. Your clothes were soiled, and quite damaged to boot. So I sent them off to get pampered. Meanwhile, I got you this to wear” Queenie stated. Kiko narrowed her eyes at the woman before even looking at the outfit. This was how it was going to go, huh? Then her eyes went to what Queenie was displaying, and they bulged in shock. There was nothing really wrong with the outfit, exactly. The corset was beautiful, looked crafted to show enough of her assets while also not making her downright sultry. And the skirt went down to her knees, or would if it wasn’t flared so it hung a little away from her and blended modesty with promiscuity. It was all shaded in the black with red trims that was the official SIR colours, but Kiko found herself a little wary. She had never worn something that revealing before. And that was before she even factored in the silk underwear and bra that, unlike the rest of the outfit, barely covered what it needed to cover.
“Do you like it?” Queenie asked, in the teasing tone that knew she had nothing else to wear so it was like this, or go naked.
“Tormenting me on purpose, or does it just come naturally?” Kiko asked, scowling a little as she strode forward and, finishing towelling herself off, took up the lingerie and pulled them on.

“Why can’t it be both?” Queenie retorted, picking up the corset and helping Kiko into it, tying the laces enough so it would not slip off, but not so that Kiko would have any trouble breathing. There wasn’t much ribbing on the corset anyway, as if it had been made for its looks rather than being an actual Corset.

When she had dressed, and gotten into the satin shoes with low heels – Queenie had provided them as well, apparently Kiko’s shoes had also been confiscated – she took her through the building to Lysaida’s office. Having never worn heels before, the clicking on the ground as she walked was something new to Kiko, but she liked the metronome of it, it was kind of soothing. Once the two had arrived, Queenie didn’t even bother to knock, she just walked right in, and up to the desk, piled with paperwork, and grinned at a vexed looking Lysaida.
“Still refusing my offer to burn all the paperwork?” Queenie asked, before looking back to Kiko, who was kind of lingering on the door, not exactly sure how to handle the outfit she was in.
“Yes, I am. And I see you have wasted no time dressing up the new recruit. Come on in, Miss Ator. We need to officially sign you into SIR, deal with your education, and so on. There is quite a bit that goes into someone of your age joining us” She was being a lot more formal than when she had broken into Kiko’s house, but maybe that was just because she was in Work mode right now.
“So, lots of pieces of paper to sign?” Kiko asked, grinning sheepishly as she walked into the office, taking up the offer to come in. It was better than out in the hallway, after all.
“Yes. The recruitment sheet, the basic rules and tenants, and a list of the Quasi-humans we have here, so you know what to expect” She gestured with a folder, which Kiko walked over to take, and then opened, starting reading immediately. The recruitment sheet and the rules were pretty simple, she got through them quickly, but she took more time with the quasi-human list.
“Phoenix…” she muttered, a slight elation in her voice. Phoenixes where pretty rare, mostly because they were very humble creatures and never really revealed themselves in public. Anyone could be a Phoenix until they got shot, or stabbed, or otherwise mortally wounded. But one part of the list made her look up with a broad grin. “Dragon, huh? You SIR agents get all the fun stuff” She quipped, taking a pen and beginning to fill out the form. Name, date of birth, occupation, kin, Quasi-human nature [If applicable]. It was all pretty basic.

“Yes, we SIR agents get all the fun stuff. Although the Dragons are not exactly social people. They can interact on occasion, but are surprisingly shy, considering they can be thirty foot of scales and fire when they chose to be” Lysaida replied, flicking her eyes to Queenie to make sure the woman wasn’t up to anything, and then returning her gaze to Kiko as she finished the form and handed it back. Lysaida checked it over, and then nodded in satisfaction. “Benefit of being the boss, is that I can accept you on the spot now this paperwork is done, rather than having to go through channels to get to me. Welcome to SIR, Recruit” Lysaida nodded, and Queenie returned to Kiko’s side, beaming like a dog with a bone. Lysaida didn’t seem to be finished, however, so Kiko kept her attention on the Colonel. “As for ranking, which is what a lot of people ask. They get something off having a title, apparently. Your rank depends on which division you chose to be in. You will probably want to join one of the assault teams, Kitsunes excel there, with their special talents, and it is the divisor that our Queenie heads. You start as a Gunner, and then Agent, and finally Striker. Your father was a Striker, incidentally” She mentioned, and did her best to not give in to the despair of such a memory.

Kiko decided to change the subject, and quickly, before the topic got to dreary.
“She heads the Assault teams? I thought, she was boss of the gym” Kiko said, before blushing and covering her mouth. She didn’t mean to give her the title that popped into her head. Queenie, however, found it amusing.
“Boss of the Gym? Heh. Well, I’m the Overseer of ‘the Gym’ as you put it, but the boss of the Assault Teams. Basically I lead routine workouts for the rookies and occasion squads, but I head the assault teams. The two mesh well, so I take care of both” Queenie explained, before giving a terribly wide, scary grin. “And I’ll see to making sure that you know my title much better than you do now” It sounded somewhere between a threat, and a promise for more of what happened after the spar. Kiko wasn’t sure which one worried her more…
