Ellana's Cultural Studies on Humanity Chapter 43:- On Birthday Celebrations

[Stormtrooper1990]

Following our Halloween night out, the date of Nikki's 22nd name day was fast approaching. Committing the wonderful experience to my drafts I found my thoughts drifting to Nikki and how humans celebrate their name days. Are they anything like us? It was Kremm, my erstwhile friend and bodyguard who inspired me to investigate. Thus began my quest to find Nikki a perfect gift, something that would be a token of our Lifemate bond. I already had some experience of human bartering by watching Nikki and I was determined to put this knowledge to good use. What I would discover is that it's often better to do things the Zenobian way. Of course my task would be made even more difficult by the intervention of our old friends, who were watching Nikki even more closely...

The Zephyrs Engineering Deck, Deck 3, Monday 4th November 2024 14:15pm GMT


Ellana hummed along to Empire State of Mind has she made the routine maintenance checks to the engine of her beloved Zephyr , ably assisted by her friend and bodyguard Kremm. "How do you suppose humans celebrate their namedays, Kremm?" She asked sliding out from under the crafts hyperdrive, dressed in a red engineering jumpsuit. Kremm shrugged his broad shoulders, passing her a hydro spanner. "I suppose they get each other gifts like we do? Why do you ask highness? Is this about Nikki and her upcoming nameday?" Ellana nodded disappearing back under the engine. "Mhm. I was just thinking what should I get her as a gift." Kremm smiled. "What about more clothing from a suitable human female? There are plenty to around and Nikki seemed fond of the outfit you acquired for her. " After tightening a particularly stubborn bolt, Ellana re-emerged shaking her head. "No that would be repeating myself too soon. I want to get her something with meaning, something that's a testament to the strength of our Lifemate bond." She offered her hand to Kremm who gripping it, pulling her up one handed. "Why don't you call and ask her, highness? She would know better than anyone." Grinning Ellana planted a kiss on his cheek. "Thanks old friend, I can always count on you." Grabbing her communicator she swept from the engine room. Grinning Kremm watched her leave. "Always and forever... Ellana." He said wistfully caressing his cheek where her lips had made contact.


15th Precinct Crime Lab, Columbus Avenue, New York City 10:20am


Nikki bounced on her feet nervously has she waited for Liv to appear, standing next to her Sergeant McKnight shook his head smiling. "I don't think I've ever seen you this nervous, Sanderson. You do know that all you're doing is asking her to your birthday party, right? It's not like she's going to bite your head off." Clutching her evidence bag, Nikki turned to him. "I know sarge, but what happens if she refuses or takes it the wrong way? That I'am just hitting on the new girl." She laughed nervously. McKnight steadied her with his hand. "Are you kidding? You've seen the looks she's been giving you? The guys have all been talking about it. The scuttlebutt is she's sweet on you." Nikki nodded, smiling. "She was watching me train the other day, checking me out." The sergeant smiled. "And she gave you one hell of a cheer when sat Berkeley on her ass yesterday." Nikki laughed recounting the memory. "Teaches the bitch for putting shit in my locker, I would send her a get well card and some ice for her nose but you know..." McKnight cleared his throat as Liv walked over, giving Nikki a friendly wink. "Well it doesn't take two deliver evidence, good luck rookie." He said patting her on the back, leaving the two women alone.


"Officer Sanderson. How lovely to see you." Liv flirted in a cute local accent, her eyes scanning the curves beneath Nikki's uniform, smiling a beautiful smile. Nikki gazed into her big pretty turquoise eyes momentarily glancing to her bird tattoo on her slender neck. "Not as lovely as it is to see you, Liv. That's a very sweet tat." Liv giggled. "Would you like to see them all? I have one in a very... special place." She said biting her bottom lip. Nikki glanced at her slim body under her blue lab coat, tits perking up at the thought of her naked. "I think I might like that." Suddenly a chime came from her pocket, completely killing the mood. "Just hold that thought." She sighed as she took out Ellana's communicator from her pocket, turning reluctantly away from the pretty CSI. "Oh you bet, babe..." she said taking in the shape of Nikki's hips and ass.


"Hi, Nikki. How are you? I hope I'am not disturbing you." Came Ellana's voice through the communicator. "Hi, Ellie. It's great to hear you voice, but I'am working." Her Lifemate took a deep breath. "My apologies, Nik. I just wanted to ask you; What would you like for your birthday tomorrow?" Nikki chuckled rubbing the back of her head. "Ohh, tough question. How about a date with Jennifer Lawrence? Or you could become her like that time you infiltrated the OSCARs." She whispered into the device. Ellana laughed. "That can be arranged. I could quite easily go grab her and get her back in the Zephyr in a day." Nikki shook her head grinning. "Relax, Ellie. That was a joke. Seriously though, I'am a tough girl to buy gifts for just ask my mom she'll tell you. Just get me something with meaning, you know me well enough by now. But Ellie, don't get me anymore clothes. I appreciate the outfit you already got me and I don't want you to tip off those suited pricks." She could hear Ellana's smile. "Don't worry, just leave it with me Nikki. And before you ask, I will promise to behave myself." Nikki grinned shaking her head. "Yeah, promises. Babe, just watch your back okay? L & M have been tailing me a lot lately. I think they have it in for me since Halloween what with the prank I pulled on their tires." Ellana breathed. "Don't worry my dear Nikki, I can handle those two. Well, I better let you get back to work. I love you, see you later." Nikki smiled at the words. "Love you too, babe. Take care." With that she hung up, turning back to Liv flashing her a smile.


"Who's Ellie? Your girlfriend?" She asked in a quiet curious voice. Nikki shook her head, smiling. "No, she's a close friend from college. We had a thing but it didn't work out." She said telling a half truth as Liv briefly grinned. "I'am sorry to hear that. So was there something you wanted to ask me? " Liv asked hopefully leaning against the mass spectrometer. Nikki nodded. "Well it's my 22nd tomorrow and I would to invite you to the birthday bash. What do you say?" Liv cocked her head grinning from ear to ear. "I would be delighted to attend. Where is it?" Nikki giggled. "Thank you so much, Liv. It will be at The Protect and Serve 18:00 sharp. You know where it is right?" Liv nodded. Returning the nod Nikki turned to leave. "Um, Officer Sanderson. Your evidence?" Nikki looked awkwardly as she whipped back around. "Oh, silly me. Here it is." She held it out for Liv, who as she took it caressed Nikki's hand with her index finger eliciting a soft moan of desire from the young officer before she turned reluctantly leaving the crime lab. Watching her leave, Liv Brannigan looked at her pert ass as it traveled. "Arrest me now, Nikki." She purred booting up the mass spectrometer.



Central Park 10:40am


Parking the Zephyr in a deserted corner of central park, Ellana now dressed in a figure hugging green XS catsuit crouched low in the bushes waiting for a suitable young female donor to lend her both clothing and her face. She didn't have to wait long, the sound of an electric engine from her left drew her attention. It was an attractive young human female riding a curious two wheeled contraption, that looked a pair of wheels with handlebars in the front. She was a pretty youth with gentle heart shaped features, high cheekbones and warm blue eyes framed by long ash blonde hair. Her petite form hugged by a designer denim jacket with matching belted jeans and white sneakers. Underwhich was a black turtleneck with matching scarf tied around her neck. Her ears were studded. Yes, a comely girl indeed. What Nikki would call a looker. Time for a change... Coiling like a spring, Ellana waited until the girl was passing her position before she pounced. With the agility of a bearcat, Ellana lunged forwards gripping the girls sweater and arm yanking the terrified girl into the bushes with a squeak. Then without giving her a chance to scream, she straddled her swiftly chopping the girl on the right hand of her neck. With a cute pained grunt she slumped unconscious instantly onto her grass on her side. " Hush girl. Time for us to get better acquainted." Ellana quipped unzipping her catsuit.


Taking the unconscious girl into her arms, Ellana assumed her form with a passionate kiss stripping the denim jacket from her shoulders. "Tiffany Danvers, 20, Business Studies Student, NYU. She has a strange habit of collecting Barbie dolls which litter her student dorm and freaks out her roommate. Tiffany also doesn't understand why she cannot land a boyfriend." Inserting in Tiffany's ear studs she then unlaced her sneakers slipping them off along with her blue cotton ankle socks. Unbelting the students jeans, Ellana worked them free of Tiffany's slender hips peeling them down her long legs before whipping off her pastel blue bikini cut panties exposing a small womanhood crowned by a strimmer strip of ash blonde hair and pert plum shaped buttocks. Pulling up the stolen underwear, she hoisted the half naked student into a seated position pulling off her turtle neck sweater up over her head followed by her matching pastel blue lace trims camisole. Snatching the crucifix from around the girls slender neck, Ellana let the completely naked Tiffany flop back onto the grass admiring her firm B-cup breasts with pink circular perky areolas. After she had gotten dressed in the girls clothes, Ellana scooped up the girls handbag finding her phone and $200 in cash. "Right, let's have a look for department stores." Taking out the girls phone, she ran a quick Google search. "Hmm? Macy's Department Stores 151 West 34th Street in Midtown? That's not far..." Pocketing the phone, she looped the students handbag over her shoulder leaving Tiffany sprawled naked in the bushes. Hopping on the curious contraption which was called a Segway, according to Tiffany's memories Ellana made her way towards the south exit of Central Park in the direction of Midtown.


Outside the 15th Precinct Corner of Columbus Avenue and West 90th Street 11:00am


"You have to hand it to those damn kids, they sure did a number on our tires." M said as the two agents sat in their sedan across the street from the precinct, L smiled. "Well it's a good thing I didn't have to pay for it. That's why we have the motor pool, rookie." M nodded taking a sip of her coffee. "Boss? Why are were spying on Nikki? Ellana hasn't shown up in 3 days and hasn't been to see her." L paused taking a measure of her own coffee. "Well it's Nikki's birthday tomorrow. And you can bet she will be invited." M swallowed her coffee, feeling the warm liquid spread through her. "Do you think we will get an invite? I mean we have been through a lot together." L scoffed shaking her head. "I doubt it. She isn't exactly our greatest fan, rook." M lent back into her seat. "Well, I think we should least pay our respects boss. We have been on quite the ride." Before L could reply she heard her communicator chime from her jacket pocket, taking it out she held to her ear thumbing the connection.


"Linda?" Came the dulcet Boston tones of her lover, Paddy. "We have found a naked body of a girl in Central Park, looks like our girl is back in town. I think it's for the best you stop tailing Nikki and get your head back in the game." L smiled. "My heads always in the game, Paddy. Do we have a fix in where she's heading?" She could hear Paddy's smile. "Yep, N has already tracked the girls cell. Ellana's going to do a little shopping at Macy's." The two agents chuckled. "Now that definitely sounds like our girl, thanks Paddy we're on it." Hanging up, L glanced up to see Nikki exit the precinct with her male partner getting into a police cruiser. Flashing her young partner a smile, she switched on the engine pulling away.



Outside Macy's Department Store, 151 West 34th Street, Midtown Manhattan , NYC 11:05am


Parking her Segway outside the department store, Ellana confidently strode inside but no sooner as she got through the front doors then she was pounced on by two young and attractive security guards. They were both dressed in white shirts, with "Security Officer" flashed on the right shoulder American flag on the left, black clip on ties and badges on the left breasts, matching black trousers with gold piping held up with their equipment belts and sensible shoes. The guard on the left who's name was 'A Washington' according to her nameplate was a square jawed ebony skinned woman with prominent cheekbones, big brown eyes and cropped black hair under her security baseball cap held up her hands. "Oh, no, no, no. Where do you think you're going Ms Danvers?" Ellana flashed her an indignant look. "I'am going to shop. What's the problem?" The guard to her right, a pretty girl with rounded features slender cheekbones and almond shaped blue eyes, light brown hair tied into a ponytail that looped through her baseball cap laid her hand on her pepper spray. Her name was 'P Greene'. "What's the problem? Let's see. We caught you three times in our store shoplifting and on the third time, you were given a lifetime ban from Macy's. On penalty of of prosecution if you showed your face again." Ellana tried to slip past them as they shepherded her to the glass doors. "You have no right! Let me past!" Washington shook her head. "We have every right! It's store policy. Now I suggested you move along or we will forcibly eject you and call the police!" Seeing no other option, she left without a struggle turning back onto the street. Of all the stinking rotten luck, I replace a shoplifter? How damned inconvenient. Well Ellana, time for plan B.



Macy's Department Store Parking Structure


"Keep me out will they? Well, I will show them. There's always another way." She grumbled under her breath scanning for a new look. That was then she noticed a pretty young woman in a silver Lexus convertible drive past her towards the department stores parking structure. Hmm? She's pretty and I bet she comes from money. I could use her cash to easily get Nikki a gift Ellana thought as she appraised her. Long curly flame coloured hair framing slightly squared freckled features, rounded cheekbones and piercing emerald eyes. Her voluptuous form emphasised by an expensive red low cut dress, with matching heels. Over she wore a black trench coat with white fur lining and matching black leather gloves. A silver diamond graced her neck, dangling down above her cleavage with matching bangles and a bracelet on the right risk. Slipping underneath the closing barrier, Ellana followed the car until it parked in a secluded bay on the 2nd floor.


Melanie Atwell, grinned as she regarded herself in the driver's side mirror liking what she saw. Well now I'am a member of the one percent it's time to splash my husbands cash. What shall I get myself? A new pair of shoes? A hand bag perhaps? First things first, I must look my best... Taking out her make-up bag, Melanie began to spruce herself up using the rear view mirror but before she could apply her lipstick, she noticed a young blonde perched on her backseat beaming. "No need to do that my dear, I will be putting that on soon enough. Love your dress..." Suddenly before she could cry out, Melanie felt the girl's hand clamp around her mouth to muffle her cries before another grasped her throat. "Enjoy your nap." The blonde said pinching the vulnerable sides of Melanie's neck, the redhead let out a muffled squeak of pained arousal as she was dragged into the back seat unconscious.


Laying the unconscious redheaded woman onto the back seat, Ellana straddled her shedding Tiffany's clothes then embraced her assuming her form with a kiss removing the coat and jewellery. "Melanie Atwell, 32, Wife of a Wall Street Stock Broker. She was her husband's secretary who he had an affair with and divorced his first wife. He's ten years older than Melanie. She is glad that she no longer as to struggle, no longer wanting for anything. Although she can longer look her friends in the eye as they all call her a good digger." Ellana said putting on the woman's jewellery before slipping off her heels. After unstrapping the trench coat, slipping it from her shoulders she rolled Melanie onto her side unzipping the Prada dress and peeling it off the woman's athletic figure leaving her only in a black lace string one piece undergarment covering her modesty. Not one to waste anything, Ellana unlaced the undergarment whipping off Melanie's body in one smooth motion admiring her full firm freckled D-cup breasts with puffy light pink roundel shaped areolas, small pink clean shaven womanhood and perky bubble buttocks. Once she had finished dressing in Melanie's expensive clothing, Ellana took her by her ankles dragging her towards her waiting trunk tipping her inside. Taping up her limbs, gagging her with a strip she tossed Tiffany's clothes over her naked form slamming the the trunk shut. Picking up the woman's handbag, Ellana used her makeup to look the part then checked her cash. "$300 Dollars? That should be more than enough to buy Nikki something nice, thank you Melanie. Time to go shopping!" She quipped excitedly looping Melanie's Gucci handbag over shoulder walking over to the elevator banks.


Macy's Ground Floor, Cosmetics and Aromatics 11:15am


Ellana gazed in awe as she walked through the bustling three storey department store, criss crossed with curious moving stares called 'escalators' according to Melanie's memories that reminded her of travelators commonly seen in most Zenobian public buildings. Do humans need this many shops in one building? Where are the market places? She noticed a pretty young blonde girl, dressed in a black dress standing near a display of what looked like fragrances made by a man called Christian Dior attempting to attract customers with her sales pitch. "Come one come all! Try a free sample of Midnight Melody, the latest feminine fragrance from Christian Dior! Perfect! Nikki should like that. I mean she already smells nice but what woman doesn't like to smell nice? Fragrances are a common gift on Zenobia after all. It's good to see that on Earth some things are universal. Smiling, Ellana approached the girl.



Turning to face Ellana, the sales girl whose name was 'Sarah' beamed. "Hi, ma'am. Would you like a free sample." The Zenobian returned the smile. "What's the most expensive scent you have? It's for a very close friend and I only want the best for her." Sarah nodded turning to present her with a small blue bottle. "Well, I can certainly recommend Midnight Melody. The latest from Christian Dior, one application of this and she will be the object of desire for any man or woman." Ellana nodded examining the bottle. "May I give it a go?" The girl grinned. "Of course, just hold out your hand." Opening the bottle Sarah tapped out a couple of drops onto Ellana's wrist. Leaning in to smell, the Zenobian suddenly let out a violent sneeze which blew Sarah back a little. "Oh my God!? Are you okay? I don't usually get reaction." She asked her face a mask of concern. Ellana replied with a smile. "Of course, my dear. Now if you'll excuse me..." Better to avoid human perfumes in high quantities, noted... She thought as she walked away towards the escalators. Glancing at the signs Ellana noticed a Jewellery Store on the second floor, tutting in frustration. Of course! Jewellery! Why didn't I think of that before? It's great gift, popular here as it is on Zenobia. We use silver and rarely gold too. Besides, it's custom for Lifemates to exchange tokens. Snapping her fingers, she ascended to the second floor.


Macy's World of Jewellery, Second Floor 11:25am



As soon as she entered store, Ellana was greeted by a strikingly beautiful young sino-american girl behind the counter. "Good morning, ma'am. How can I help you?" She was pretty thing with slender features, high cheekbones and slanted brown eyes framed by long loose brown hair. She dressed in a black pantsuit with matching high heels and white tank top over her small breasts, around her slender neck was a ribbon choker and a dress watch on her left wrist. Her name according to the badge on her left breast was 'Talitha.' Ellana beamed back. "Good morning...Talitha." she said reading her nameplate. " Do you anything you would recommend for a dear friend on her birthday?" The girl nodded reaching under the counter. "Of course, ma'am. How about these exclusive gold friendship bracelets." She deposited two gleaming bracelets onto the counter. "A real token of friendship if I ever saw one, this well really show her how much you care." The Zenobians eyes lit up at the lustre of the bracelets. They are indeed beautiful and worthy of Nikki's wrist, these will do nicely. "Excellent, I will take them. How much are you asking for them?" The girl cocked her head, excited that she was finally getting a sale. "They are $500 each, so that's $1000 please?" Ellana nodded taking out Melanie's purse flicking through sighing deeply as she pulled out only $300. "I'am sorry but I don't think I can afford it." Talitha smiled sympathetically. "That's okay ma'am. You can always pay by card or we even take a line of credit." Ellana rubbed the back of her head, weighing up her options. Damn, I don't know how to pay by card. Now I could always just take her out, assume her form and steal the bracelets. But I want the experience of using human money to buy something... "I have forgotten my cards, I'am afraid." Talitha sighed retrieving the bracelets. "I'am sorry to hear that, I hope I can find something a little more in your price range." Ellana grinned. "Oh don't worry, I will be right back." She said before she turned to exit the store, leaving Talitha completely confused.


Macy's Second Floor 11:35am

Scanning the bustling shop floor, Ellana searched for a pretty rich female. I know I only need the money but I might was well update my look too. For all I know the agents are right behind me. I just need to get a girl alone and replace her. Sure enough she spotted a young attractive girl, with heart shaped features, gentle cheekbones and piercing blue eyes framed by shoulder length black hair cut into a bob. Her petite form hugged by a black cable knit sweater dress, long legs covered by black tights and matching laced knee high boots. Her ears were studded and a black Louis Vuitton handbag looped over her shoulder. Well she looks wealthy enough and should have the required $1000, I will enjoy being her. She grinned as the girl weaved her way through the crowds towards the women's toilets. And she needs the bathroom, how fortuitous. Hot on heels, Ellana shadowed the unsuspecting female who disappeared into the bathroom.


2nd Floor Women's Restroom


After unlacing her boots Casey Turnbull whipped down her tights and crimson lace shorts, hiking up her sweater dress as she placed her pert buttocks on the toilet bowl sighing with relief as she answered the call of nature. Gosh, I needed that. Shouldn't have had this two coffee's this morning. Well I hope those fabulous heels I saw yesterday are still there, I must have them. The sound of the bathroom door opening interrupted her thoughts. Casey watched a pair of heels clattering off the tiled floor, entering a cubicle next to her. Feeling the last of her urine leave her small vagina topped with a thin black stripped of public hair, Casey reached for the toilet paper only to feel a hand grasp her slender throat drawing her up from the bowl. Panicking the girl tried to scream but all she could muster was a pained squeak, feeling the vulnerable points of her neck being pinched. Her eyes rolling back into her skull, Casey slumped unconscious in her attackers grasp the last sensation she felt was being lowered down back onto the bowl legs spread wide.


Grinning, Ellana hopped over the cubicle landing by the half naked unconscious brunette sat on the toilet bowl. Straddling the woman, Ellana stripped off Melanie's clothes before assuming her form in a passionate embrace. "Casey Turnbull, 24, Heiress to Turnbull Reality and Trainee Veterinarian. She has no intention of inheriting the family business and all the wealth that entails. Casey would rather pursue her veterinary career, since she's a fierce animal lover." After inserting in Casey's hair studs, Ellana slipped off the tights and lace underwear from around her ankles pulling them up before sliding up the girls sweater dress up over her head. Unfastening Casey's matching crimson lace wonderbra from the front, Ellana unfolded it to reveal buoyant well formed C-cup breasts with puffy rounded dark pink areolas. Once she was dressed in the heiresses clothes, she tore up Melanie's red Prada dress binding Casey's limbs and gagging her then picking up her Louis Vuitton handbag unlocked the cubicle, planting it on the sink counter.


"For skuts sake! Where is her cash?! There's only plastic cards! Now what am I going to do?" Ellana swore as she rummaged through Casey's handbag, finding not a single coin just more useless cards! Before she could weigh up her options, another rich looking young woman stormed into the bathroom yelling angrily at someone down her phone. "What do you mean my assets are frozen?! I demand an explanation!" She shouted with a British accent. Ellana cocked her head appraising her. She was quite comely with slightly tanned rounded features, slender cheekbones and bright hazel almond shaped eyes covered by big sunglasses. Her honey blonde hair tied into a bun. She was wearing a tight red leather pantsuit, with red low cut tank top and matching ankle boot heels, that hugged her slim petite figure. Around her neck was tied a red scarf complimented with a gold pendant and dangling earrings. The girl took out a large wad of dollar bills from her red leather handbag, drawing her finger through them. "You mean to tell me that I haven't a cent to my name?! And you offer me no reason why you have frozen my accounts?! You have no right! Ugh!!" She angrily switched off her phone before looking up at Ellana. "What the fuck are you looking at?" The Zenobian grinned looking her up and down. "How much money do you have there?" The blonde rounded on her. "I don't see how that's any of your business, yank?" She said shoving her in the shoulder. Ellana smirked raising her right hand like a blade. "Well you see it is my business because..." She swiftly chopped the woman on the side of her neck, who let out a pained yelp as Ellana caught her failing body under the shoulders. "...everything of yours is now mine, my dear." She quipped dragging the unconscious blonde into Casey's cubicle.


Laying the naked Casey on the floor next to the toilet bowl, Ellana sat the unconscious blonde on the toilet seat before removing Casey's clothing. Now naked Ellana straddled the blonde, planting a kiss on her lush lips stripping off the scarf and jewellery. " Alias Elaine Keating, 28, Confidence Trickster, from North London. Elaine Keating is not her real name, in fact it's Gina Brownlee. She's on the run from British authorities for multiple counts of credit card fraud and her conning gullible rich men, and women out of their hard earned money. Gina has sat up shop here in New York but fears it's only a matter of time before her crimes catch up with her." After putting on Gina's jewellery, adopting her bun then unzipping her heel boots, Ellana unbuttoned the fake leather jacket slipping it free off the woman's shoulders before pulling her tank top over her head revealing lush B-cup breasts enveloped by a black lace floral patterned bra. Reaching around Gina's rear, she unhooked the bra admiring her smaller breasts with perky rose petal pink areolas. Snapping on the con woman's bra, Ellana unfastened her leather pants whipping them off her slender hips and down her long legs along with her matching tanga thong exposing a full clean shaven womanhood. Now fully dressed in Gina's clothes, Ellana tore up Casey's tights restraining and gagging the naked petite woman. "Well, don't you two make the cutest couple. Should give my friends quite the surprise when they find you. Sorry for ruining your shopping experience but my friends needs supercede yours." She quipped to the two bound naked women before closing the cubicle door on them, sticking an "out of order" sign.


Picking up Gina's handbag, she counted the wad of cash. "Yes! A thousand dollars exactly. Well, father always said I was lucky. Time to get Nikki that gift." Beaming, she looped the woman's handbag over her shoulder sweeping from the bathroom making her way back to the jewellery store.


Macy's Department Store Ground Floor 11:40am


As the strode through the glass revolving door the two agents overheard a young blonde sales assistant standing by a Christian Dior perfume display, talking to her colleague, a young girl of Indian descent. "You know Radha, I had a strange customer just know. A curly haired redhead just had a really violent reaction to Midnight Melody. I didn't think it was particularly strong stuff." Radha shrugged. "Well you always get one Sarah." Pulling M aside L leant into her ear. "That sounds like our girl, alright." She whispered as M sighed in response. "Yeah but just look at this place, it's literally packed. There is no way we can canvass this entire department store boss. She could be any woman and there is a lot of us here." L looked around. "Secure those negative waves, rookie. We need a way to level the playing field..." Her voice trailing off as she noticed the CCTV cameras dotted around the walls. "She those cameras? They must have a control hub. If we can get there then we stand a chance of picking Ellana out. "Good plan boss, but we kinda stick out in our suits..." That was then two pretty young security guards, one an ebony skinned beauty the other a blue eyed brunette walked past them into a staff only door. L turned to her grinning. "Not if were dressed like a couple of rentacops, rookie." M rolled her eyes. "Oh no boss? Not after the whole Museum of Ice Cream shitshow? I swear I still cannot hear out of my right ear after the tongue lashing Z gave us." L shook her head as they slipped through the door, following the guards. "She can't blame us for the bug getting damaged. Besides, we're here she's not. And right now we need to find Ellana. You coming?" Sighing M fell in step shoulder to shoulder with her boss, trailing the guards to their locker room.



Macy's Security Locker Room 11:45am


"I can't believe we still got another 12 hours until we clock off, Phillipa. It's going to be a long day." Said guard Angelina Washington as she took a quick swig of orange Carabao energy drink. Her friend, Phillipa Green nodded sitting on the bench checking her smartphone. "Yeah and this is only our first break. At least we got to chuck that klepto Tiffany Danvers out on her ass, the look on her face is exactly why I took this job." Glancing at each other they burst out laughing. Suddenly the door of the locker room opened, the guards laughter died away as two black suited women one middle aged, the other blonde and young entered. Angelina tensed resting her hand on her sidearm. "Who are you? You can't be back here this area is restricted to customers. Leave or we may be required to use force. The older woman, a youthful but aged brunette with shoulder length black hair glanced at her young partner smirking. "Don't worry, officers. We have our authorisation right here." Reaching quickly into her jacket she drew a strange silver plated gun. Levelling it to Angelina's chest, the woman squeezed the trigger. The guard let out a cute grunt as she felt the ball hit her square in the chest, feeling the electricity course through her body she slumped back sliding down unconscious down the row of lockers with a sigh. Panicking Phillipa held up her arms. "No! Wait please-ugh!!" She squeaked in pain as the blondes electric ball struck her in her left breast, bowling her off the bench unconscious onto the floor legs draped over the bench. Holstering their stun pistols the agents knelt by the stricken women. "I will take the black girl and you take blue eyes on the bench, she's your size, rookie. Nodding, M sighed as she stripped off her suit before unclipping Phillipa's clip on tie.



Within five minutes the two agents where standing over the scantily clad zip tied and gagged guards, making the final touches on their stolen uniforms. Angelina was wearing only her solid white t-shirt bra and matching bikini shorts, that showed off her trim athletic figure. While all that was covering Phillipa's modesty was a lace trim pink camisole and matching thong. Clipping on the brunettes equipment belt, M turned to L. "Boss? How long will we have to keep this up? And I don't mean just the attacking and stripping women, I will never be okay with that. But chasing Ellana, she's always been one step ahead of us despite P's team and all our technology." L sighed clipping on Angelina's tie. "Trust me rookie, Ellana's luck will run out eventually and we will be there to slap the cuffs on her." M nodded pulling on Phillipa's baseball cap. "I know boss and I'am right with you to the end, always. It's just luck as never been our strong suit. Besides, V wants to move in with me and I still can't tell her about half the stuff we do. This girl..." She glanced down at the sleeping underwear clad from of Phillipa. "...reminds me of Vicki. Which was why I hesitated before firing. We are getting way too good at this and that scares me." L rested her hands on the young agents shoulders. "You know me, Martha. I don't go making promises not ones I can't keep but know this I'am just as tired as you are. We will catch her, mark my words." She gently squeezed M's shoulders. The agent smiled. "Damn right we will. Shall we get these beauties stashed?" After stuffing the bound unconscious underwear clad guards into Angelina's locker, M slammed the locker shut before following L out of the room towards the CCTV hub.



Macy's World of Jewellery 11:50am


Walking back into the jewellery store now wearing Elaine/Gina's face, Ellana had a curious sense of déjà vû as she heard the pretty little Talitha rattle off her sales pitch once again. "Hi, I would like to buy those bracelets please? They are for a very friend of mine on her birthday." The sales assistant did a double take. "Really? Well you're not the first person to enquire about those. I had a woman come in just 10 minutes ago interested in those. Are you buying for the same girl?" She asked retrieving the bracelets from under the counter. Ellana flashed her a small smile. "You could say that, yes." Talitha returned the smile. "So, will you be paying by card or...by cash?" Her voice trailing off as the Zenobian slammed a thick wad of Dollars onto the counter in front of her. "I think you'll find it's all there, my dear." The girl's eyes widened as she beheld the thick sheaf of green paper. "Okay...cash it is." Taking the money, Talitha scanned the first bill which made the machine make three sharp beeps. "Huh?! That's weird, perhaps it's just a damaged bill." Then the machine bleeped again followed by a third and a fourth time. Then holding up one of the bills to the light, Talitha gasped. "Ma'am. These are marked bills, they're fake. I'am going to have to call security." She said nervously reaching for the phone on her counter with her right hand.


Reacting quickly Ellana seized the girls right hand. "Ma'am! Let go please! Your hurting...oh my? " Her voice trailing away into an aroused gasp as Ellana caressed her wrist releasing her pheromones. "I'am afraid I can't let you do that, dear." She said grabbing Talitha by her collar pulling her into a passionate kiss, one which the young sales assistant returned hungrily. Letting a low muffled moan of arousal, the girl slumped unconscious in Ellana's grip. "I really should have done that from the moment we first met." She quipped wearing Talitha's lowering the girl to the counter, where she lay slumped over. After shutting up the shop, Ellana hopped over the counter. "Let's get you out of those clothes dear." She gently pulled Talitha's body off the counter before stripping out of her red leather suit.


"Talitha Chang, 22, Macy's Jewellery Store Shop Assistant. She graduated from Columbia with a major in psychology but the only job she get is a store assistant. Talitha is looking to get clinical psychology and has taken this job to pay off her tuition fees." Ellana said taking off the girls accessories putting them on before slipping off her heels. Hoisting Talitha into a seated position, she removed the girls suit jacket off her shoulders one arm at a time then slid her tank top up over her head revealing small A cup breasts covered by a cute low cut white lace bra with pink ribbons on the straps. Reaching around Talitha's back, Ellana unhooked the girls bra admiring her youthful pointed breasts with puffy dark pink areolas. Gently lowering the half naked girl onto the floor, she clipped on the bra before unbuttoning her trousers peeling them from her slender hips down her long tanned legs. Not sparing a thought for Talitha's modesty, Ellana whipped off her matching g-string thong, complete with pink ribbons in the rear from between her thighs exposing a tidy little woman hood crowned with a trimmed light brown triangle of pubic hair. Once she dressed in the girl's clothes, Ellana tore up Gina's tank top binding Talitha's limbs and gagging her with the scarf. "I'am very sorry for this, Talitha." She asked rolling the unconscious naked girl under the counter, scanning her plum shaped buttocks. "If only you humans carried your paper money on them, then you wouldn't be in this situation. Farewell my dear." Hopping over the counter, she retrieved the bracelets popping them into her suit pocket. Locking up the store, she smiled making her way to the exit.


The Security Control Room, The Same Moment


"Did you just see that, Rookie?! That's our girl all right in the jewellery store, second floor! She's just took out that sales girl." L cried as they witnessed Ellana kiss the sales assistant, assuming her form before stripping her down all on CCTV. "Damn! I forgot how much of a good kisser she is -ow! Sorry, boss." M cringed as L slapped her upside the head. "We need to get up there!" She said ejecting the video tape pocketing it, before taking out her communicator walking towards the door. "N? I want you to hack into Macy's and delete the security logs." N's voice rang in her ear. "You got it boss." Hanging up the device, she turned to M. "Come on, rookie we haven't a moment to lose!"


Macy's 2nd Floor 12:00pm

"Boss? We don't even know where the store is." M said as they scanned the second floor, looking for signs of Ellana. L sighed as neared the first floor escalator. "Damn it! Why didn't you pick up a copy of the store directory! It would have made things more easier..." Her voice trailing off as she glanced at the crowd of people descending the escalator, eyes widening as she noticed the young sales assistant from the jewellery store. "Ellana!"

Macy's 1st Floor Escalator, Same Moment


Turning, the Zenobian looked back to see her old friends standing at the top of the escalator disguised as store security guards. Reacting quickly, Ellana flashed them a smile before sliding down the rail crowds gasping in shock as she quickly descended. But the agents were on her tail, sliding down right after her. As she ran pell mell across the crowded ground floor, Ellana tipped over a couple of displays in an attempt to slow the agents down but they easily leapt over both barely breaking a sweat. Then she noticed Sarah and the perfume display from earlier, grinning evilly Ellana paused tipping over the display before darting towards the store exit . Turning she noticed the agents swear loudly slipping on the broken perfume vials, crashing to the floor in a tangled heap. Laughing she darted through the revolving door and down a side alley


Side Alleyway West 35th Street 12:10pm


Entering the alley, Ellana saw a red moped with a matching crash helmet on the handlebars, parked in the middle facing her. Well that has to be someone's. It would make for a perfect getaway vehicle, I wonder if the owner is female? As if to answer her question, a pretty young redheaded female emerged from a service door. She was an attractive specimen with diamond shaped freckled features, slender cheekbones and piercing emerald eyes. Under her red knit cap was shoulder length auburn hair. She was wearing what Ellana surmised was a waitress uniform from a place called 'Rowlands Bar and Grill' if the name tag on her tan waistcoat which read "Valerie"' on the left breast, underwhich she wore a black long sleeve shirt, trousers and sensible shoes. Over that was a red fur lined parka. She's perfect, I need to move fast the agents could be here any minute. Crouching low, Ellana silently crept upon the distracted Valerie who was retrieving her helmet. She struck quickly, raising her right like a blade the Zenobian swiftly chopped Valerie in the back of her neck the girl fell forwards with a cute pained squeak slumping unconscious over her moped. Grinning, Ellana pulled the stricken waitress from her vehicle dragging her body around a nearby dumpster. "I've always liked the colour red, my dear."



Propping the unconscious waitress by the dumpster, Ellana stripped off Talitha's suit carefully putting the bangles into Valerie's coat packet before assuming the redheads form with a kiss as she removed the outerwear. "Valerie Stephenson, 23, waitress at Rowlands Bar and Grill and trainee firefighter. She's training to become a firefighter to follow in her father's footsteps, since he was at Ground Zero during the World Trade Centre attack in 2001. Valerie's job at the grill is to tide her over until she finishes her training. Hmm, interesting. She's dating Sarah the perfume girl at Macy's, who's thrilled at the idea of having a firefighter belle." Ellana put in the girls ear studs then unlaced her shoes, pulling them off along with with pink cotton ankle socks. After slipping off Valerie's waistcoat from her shoulder, she unbuttoned her shirt revealing lush C-cup breasts covered by a pink cotton with white lace trim camisole. Unfastening the waitresses trousers, Ellana peeled them off her hips down her long legs before whipping off her matching low matching thong from between her thighs exposing a small clitoris topped with a trimmed strip of auburn pubic hair and pert peach shaped buttocks. Pulled up the stolen panties, Ellana stripped the shirt from the half naked Valerie then holding her arms up slid her camisole over her head revealing buoyant slightly freckled C-cup breasts with pink roundel shaped areolas. Quickly getting dressed in the rest of Valerie's clothing, including the hat and coat Ellana scooped up the athletic naked body of Valerie Stephenson tipping her into the dumpster tossing in Talitha's suit after her.


Straddling the bike, Ellana strapped on the girls helmet. Gunning the engine she rode gently towards the end of the alley, but to her shock she almost ran into Agents L & M who appeared at the mouth of the alley faintly smelling of perfume. L held out her hand, bringing her to a halt.


"Excuse a moment, Miss...Valerie?" L glanced at the waitresses nametag. "Have you seen this woman? Asian early twenties. Petite, about 5' 3" and wearing a suit. Goes by the name Talitha?" L asked the redheaded girl astride her moped, as M showed her the picture of Ellana's latest face on her communicator. "She's wanted for shoplifting." M helpfully added. Valerie nodded. "Yes! She just ran right past this alley! Up towards 7th Avenue. If you're quick, you might catch her." The agents swapped glances at each other. "Thanks for your cooperation." L said before the agents ran pell mell up the street. As the clueless agents disappeared up the street, Ellana chuckled. "Never trust a pretty face, suckers. After all you never know who may be wearing it." Smiling she pulled out to the right, heading towards 6th Avenue towards Central Park.


7th Avenue 12:15pm


"Boss! Wait a second. Something feels off." M said as she stopped panting out of breath, roaring with frustration L rounded on her partner. "What is it now, rookie?!" M hesitated for an instant seeing the anger in her bosses eyes. "How could that girl have spotted Ellana run past the alley? She was only just pulling out when she ran into us." Following M's train of thought she pinched her nose. "God damn it! The redhead on the moped was Ellana, she replaced that girl! What are we? Amateurs!" Pulling out her communicator, L dialed P as the agents doubled back towards Macy's. "P meet us outside Macy's we need a clean up and containment right now. And a shower." M sniffed herself letting out a sharp sneeze. "Dang! This is strong stuff. We better stay away from N, we wouldn't want to start off his allergies." Rolling her eyes, L clipped the rookie agent upside of her head. "Shutting up, boss." She replied gingerly rubbing her head.


Central Park 12:30pm


Effortlessly weaving her way through traffic using the moped, Ellana dumped the vehicle a block away from the Park to throw the agents off. Feeling the jangle of Nikki's gift in her pocket, she made her way back to the safety of the Zephyr . "I can't wait to see the smile on Nikki's face when I present her with these." She said excitedly striding up the boarding ramp.


Tuesday 5th November 2024 17:15pm, Central Park


Ellana had received a call from Nikki that she would be picking her up around 17:30 from West 66th Street. This Ellana had decided would give her enough time to find herself something and someone to wear. Exiting the Zephyr dressed in a XS catsuit, and back in her natural form Ellana stuck to the bushes scanning for a suitable form. Reaching a fountain that was called bizarrely the Sheep Meadow Drinking Fountain Most curious, I see no fluffy four legged creatures grazing... , she noticed a lone young human female sitting on a park bench, her back to the bushes. Getting closer, Ellana appraised the pretty girl. She had smooth rounded features, high cheekbones and bright big blue eyes her long chestnut coloured hair tied into an exquisite knot. Her petite attractive frame covered by a little navy dress patterned with white love hearts, cinched at the waist with a red belt and matching heels. Over which was a black coat. Love hearts also adorned her neck and ears along with a complimentary charm bracelet. Smiling, Ellana crept silently through the bushes towards the unsuspecting female.


Shauna Mulhoney, fidgeted on the park bench nervously waiting for her date Paul to show up. He did say that he will meet me here in fifteen minutes but it's very secluded. God, I hope he isn't one of those internet psychos you here about on the news. He was so charming doing our chat and the app did say that we are compatible. Relax Shauna, you're over thinking things. Drawing her coat close, Shauna heard a rustling from the bushes. "Hello? Is someone there?" She asked nervously whipping her head around, before turning back around rolling her eyes. Seriously, Shauna. No one gets grabbed and pulled into the bushes. That thing only happens in horror movies-what?! Suddenly she felt a slender hand clamp around her mouth, muffling her cry of surprise. "Sorry my dear but that's a nice dress and I need something to wear for a party. It's nothing personal." A strange female accent hissed in her ear grasping her throat, pinching the vulnerable sides of her throat. Letting out a muffled pained squeak, Shauna slumped unconscious in her attackers grasp her final sensation was being yanked over the bench into the bushes.



Kneeling over the girls body, Ellana stripped out of her catsuit before assuming her form in a passionate embrace removing her jewellery and coat. " Shauna Mulhoney, 24, Dental Nurse. She met her date on an online professional singles dating app. Has this was going to be her first date with a guy, Shauna's quite nervous and is desperate to make a good first impression. She also wants to catch up with her older sister, who's getting married in the new year." Putting on Shauna's jewellery and adopting her knot, Ellana slipped off her high heels before rolling the girl onto her side. After stripping off the belt from around Shauna's waist, she unzipped the dress from rear peeling the garment from her slim petite form leaving her dressed in her lace navy push up bra and matching lace shorts. Ellana then whipped off Shauna's lace shorts from between her legs in one quick motion, exposing a small trimmed womanhood crowned with a strip of chestnut hair and pert plum shaped buttocks. Pulling up the stolen underwear she unhooked Shauna's bra, admiring her well rounded B-cup breasts with perky pink rose petal areolas. Quickly getting dressed in the rest of Shauna's clothes, Ellana looped her handbag over her shoulder, putting in the gold bracelets, leaving Shauna laying on her side naked in the bushes.


Walking out of the bushes, Ellana spotted a young man standing by the fountain clutching a bouquet of roses who beamed when he noticed her. "Shauna? You are looking radiant. Even more prettier than your profile picture." Ellana shook her head. "I'am sorry but I don't know who you are?" Skut, that must be her date. Come on Nikki, where are you? The mans brow furrowed in confusion. "What? It's Cooper? We spoke on the phone to organise this date. Don't you remember?" Before she could answer, Ellana noticed the familiar white Toyota Auris with her Lifemate behind the wheel, parked by the park exit. She beeped the horn. Ignoring the clueless man, Ellana brushed past him striding up to the car smiling wide.


"Hey, Ellie! It's so good to see you!" Nikki cried holding Ellana in a tight hug planting a kiss on her cheek. "Who's that guy? New boyfriend?" She joked as Ellana returned the gesture. "Oh he's this woman's date. It's a good thing you came along when you did, I was ready to neck chop him and put him with his date." Nikki laughed as she pulled out, leaving Cooper to toss his flowers in the fountain looking thoroughly shocked. "You are awful, every inch but that's why I love you." Ellana chuckled leaning back into her seat buckling up. "Happy nameday, Nikki." Her Lifemate smiled. "Thank you, Ellie. Right, for all intents and purposes you are my friend Eleanor from New Jersey. You're studying biology at Columbia and we met a couple of years ago." Ellana nodded. "I have been looking forward to this since Halloween." Nikki grinned squeezing her hand. "I'am glad you're here with me. There's someone I want you to meet, I think she might be the one, Ellie." Ellana returned the squeeze. "What is she like? She must be special to attract your attention." Nikki smiled. "I could tell you but I don't think i can do her justice. You have to see her first." Intrigued Ellana leant back in her seat as Nikki followed the signs to Columbus Avenue.


The Protect and Serve Police Bar 18:10pm



Over the course of ten minutes, Nikki had introduced Ellana to her colleagues from the 15th Precinct as Eleanor from New Jersey. She had first met Sergeant McKnight a genial friendly middle aged man who was Nikki's partner and training supervisor, alongside his pretty wife Trisha, an attractive brunette. Next, came a middle aged woman that despite her age was still youthful and bore a strong resemblance to Nikki, albeit much older and with shorter black hair. "Mom! So glad you make it!" Nikki cried giving the woman a huge hug. "Of course, sweetie. You don't think I would miss my little girls birthday do you?" Nikki blushed slightly, before turning to Ellana. " This is my mom, Deborah Sanderson former NYPD and now Private Investigator. Mom, this my friend Eleanor from college. She's from New Jersey." Deborah smiled a very familiar smile. " I won't hold that against her." She joked, shaking her hand before moving on. Next to Ellana's surprise was a woman she had already met or rather had been, blonde officer Audrey Kowolski who was a mere traffic cop when they had 'met' beamed clutching the hand of a young redheaded woman, her wife Irene. Nikki said Audrey had transferred to the NYPD from the Highway Patrol last month and they had become fast friends. "She's on the protective detail for gold transfers to and from the Federal Reserve. Her wife Irene is a lovely woman." Ellana turned to her whispering. "I once replaced Audrey when I was driving back from Lexington to New York, the night before we reunited. It's good to see her well."


Nikki made a shocked gasp. "You are unbelievable! Is there anyone you haven't replaced?" Ellana grinned as a strikingly beautiful girl with angular features, emphasised by dark make-up that brought out her pretty blue eyes framed by shoulder length dyed purple hair approached. Her slim petite figure was hugged by a dark sleeveless top, with red and black checkered pleated miniskirt and black knee high boots. She noted a large bird tattoo on her neck and a self portrait wearing a halo on her left shoulder. "Eleanor. This is Olivia, or Liv Brannigan a junior CSI or Crime Scene Investigator who's just started with us. Liv, this is Eleanor Smith my friend from college." Nikki introduced them, blushing slightly as Liv scanned her athletic form through her little red dress. "A pleasure, Eleanor." Liv smiled a warm friendly smile keeping her eyes on Nikki, shaking her head with a firm grip. "The same Ellie, who called her yesterday? I can't believe you let her go. Nikki is a remarkable woman." Nikki and Ellana looked at each other awkwardly before returning the smile. As Liv moved away to mingle, Ellana turned to her Lifemate. " I can see why you like her, Nik. And judging by the looks she's giving you the feelings mutual. Go for it, you deserve to be happy. Especially after what we've been through." Nikki took Ellana's hand, squeezing it. "Thanks, Ellie. It means a lot to hear you say that." Turning back to her guests, Nikki clapped her hands together.


"Everyone, I want to thank you all for coming tonight. But before we begin I want to propose a toast to a man who was cruelly taken from the 15th Precinct family not far away from this bar. Officer Richard Buchanan, or Buck had served this city for two decades and was my dad's partner. After his retirement, Buck still continued to serve this community and the precinct by being a listening ear." She took up a small tumbler of bourbon, saluting a picture of Buck perched by the bar. "Thankfully, the assholes responsible have been brought to justice. So, here's to Buck! You will be missed old friend. Rest in peace." She knocked back the amber liquid in one. "To Buck!" Ellana cried with the rest of the crowd, saluting his picture knocking back the alcohol. After a couple minutes of respectful silence, Nikki looked up. "Now let's get this party started!" The crowd cheered as the music and drinks started to flow.


Across the road from the Protect and Serve, 19:00pm


Having tracked Nikki's phone, the agents sat in their sedan watching the entrance intently. "Shall we go in boss? Not in disguise or anything but just to pass along our best wishes?" L turned to her young partner. "Ellana will be in there too. But we don't know what she looks like." The familiar sound of chiming came from L's jacket pocket, taking out her communicator L held it up to her ear. "Evening, Linda." L smiled at the boston twang of her lover. "What have you got for me Paddy?" The man let out a small sigh. "We found Ellana's latest victim. A young girl, Caucasian around 24. A Miss Shauna Mulhoney, a dental nurse from Midtown. Sending you a picture." L smiled. "Alright thanks Paddy, see you soon." Hanging up, she showed the picture to M. "She's a pretty one, alright. But, boss I think we should let Ellana have this one. Besides, if we try and arrest her in a bar full of cops..." She let the sentence hang as L nodded catching her train of thought. "My thoughts exactly. We should at least say hi to the birthday girl." Sharing a grin, the agents left their car walking across the street.

The Protect and Serve Police Bar


Having drunk her ninth Tequila shot, Ellana was starting to finally feel the effects of earth alcohol tittering slightly as she and Nikki witnessed McKnight completely destroy the song New York, New York by Frank Sinatra on a curious japanese device called a karaoke machine. Then feeling the weight of the bracelets in her handbag, put down her tenth shot. "I have something for you, Nik." Nikki turned her beaming as the Zenobian took out the two bracelets. "This is for you, Lifemate. Happy birthday." Nikki's eyes widened as the golden gleam dazzled her eyes. "Oh my god! Ellie, they are beautiful! They must have cost you a fortune. Thank you so much." She said putting down her bourbon, sliding on her gift. Ellana flashed her a wink putting her bracelet on. "Don't worry, I got the employee discount. She smiled sardonically. Nikki laughed. "I guess that means there's a naked store assistant tied up in a storeroom." She whispered in Ellana's ear, the two woman giggling. The sound of a throat clearing drew their attention. "Hey, Liv. I'am so glad you made it." Nikki said turning to see Liv smiling at the both of them. Noticing the subtle looks they were sharing, Ellana looked at her empty glass. "Would you look at that? I need a refill, excuse me." She got up of the booth, leaving the spot vacant for Liv who was more than happy to take her place. Leaving the two to flirt, Ellana made her way to the bar. Where she found Deborah ordering a beer.


"You're Eleanor, right. My daughter's friend from college?" She asked turning to face her. Ellana finished ordering her drinks from the young female bartender before flashing her a smile. "Yes. I must say you are a dead ringer for your daughter, Mrs Sanderson. She is a remarkable woman." She said has they leaned against the bar watching Nikki and Liv making out with gentle kisses in the booth. "You're not the first to tell me that. She is the most amazing daughter, a mother really couldn't ask for better. But she's never been lucky in love. Nikki as been with many girls but somehow she can't keep them. I hope that this young lady will be different, she deserves happiness, someone to love. Especially after the loss of Craig, her father." I agree. Has her Lifemate, I want to be there for her and support her. Liv could the other best thing that's happened to her. Ellana took a sip from her Tequila. "What can you tell me about her father? Nikki has mentioned him briefly but didn't elaborate." Before Deborah could answer, the bar fell silent as two all too familiar black suited agents walked in. Ellana sighed as the agents looked right at her.


Ellana tensed as the agents approached her, drawing hostile stares from the assembled officers. "You're not here to...take me back home? Are you guys?" She asked coyly. Humouring her, L shook her head. "Not tonight, Princess ." She stressed the word before continuing. "We thought we could come in and offer our best wishes to the birthday girl on behalf of Senior Agent Frank Castle." In the corner, Nikki looked up from kissing Liv then saying a quick apology to the girl got up the two holding hands, walking towards them. "That's kind of you but I didn't invite you two." She replied, slightly slurring her words. M chuckled. "We know be that's a nasty habit we feds have. Of showing up uninvited." Nikki sighed shaking her head. "Well, you may has well stop for one drink. Be human beings for at least one night?" M grinned walking forwards. "Yes, please. I would like-" L silenced her with a glance. "That's a tempting offer but the rookie and I are still on duty. Perhaps another time?" Deborah standing next to Ellana, appraised the agents. "Is there some kind of problem?" She narrowed her eyes at the agents. Nikki shook her head. "No, mom. These federal agents were just leaving, tell uncle Frank thank you very much for the cleaning kit he got me." Flashing her smiles, the agents turned on their heels sweeping from the bar.



23:50pm


The rest of the evening went smoothly, Ellana was enjoying herself immensely finding Nikki's colleagues pleasurable company and had made a friend in Nikki's mum. By ten minutes to midnight a very drunk Nikki had managed to blow out her birthday cake, to much cheering ( something else the human custom had in common with Zenobians. Much to Nikki's surprise.) before collapsing on the table fast asleep. Looking longingly at the peaceful sleeping Nikki, Liv took out a piece of paper writing something on it before handing it to Ellana. "Here, give this to Nikki. Tell her when she wakes up I had a great night and she's a fantastic kisser. And that I would like to get to know her better." She said before melting into the crowd. Sitting next to her daughter, Deborah helped her up glancing at Ellana. "She's got work in the morning, poor kid. Can you make she gets home safely, Eleanor?" Ellana accepting Nikki's car keys. With the help of Deborah and Sergeant McKnight, Ellana got a completely sleeping Nikki into the passenger seat of her car. Bading farewell to the humans, Ellana drove into the night. Deciding to follow the signs to Central Park and the waiting Zephyr .


The Zephyrs Longue Deck 2 Wednesday 6th November 2024 04:00am


"Ugh! How much did I have to drink? My head's ringing like the inside of a bell." Nikki groaned holding up her head in her hands, leaning on the table. Ellana poured her out some smlok juice, a guaranteed cure for Nikki's sore head. "You had at least 6 Tequila shots and a couple of bourbons. Here take this, a little homebrewed headache remedy from Zenobia. And a little present from Liv." She said sitting opposite her, sliding both the cup and the note to Nikki who smiled at the paper as she a measure of the sweet juice. "Are you going to look her up. Perhaps give her a call and go on a date?" Her Lifemate nodded grinning. "I'am definitely considering it, Ellie. She's an amazing kisser and I was so glad she turned up. You wouldn't mind if I started dating her would you? I mean I don't want to make things awkward for you, for us." She took another gulp of the red juice, savouring the taste. Ellana shook her head, smiling. " Of course not. Nikki, you are my Lifemate and I love you..." She reached across the table squeezing her hand. "...you deserve to be happy. I will everything in my power as your Lifemate and best friend to see you contented. Besides, she is very cute isn't she? Your Liv." Nikki giggled returning the squeeze. "If you need any help Nik, then just give me a call. I will be here for you." Finishing off her smlok juice, Nikki pulled Ellana into a hug.


"Thanks for coming, babe." Ellana grinned returning the hug. "It was a honour, thanks for inviting me." Glancing at her watch over Ellana's, Nikki gasped in shock. "Oh shit! It's past four and my shift starts in an hour! Sorry, Ellie I must dash." Giving her Lifemate a quick kiss on the cheek, she ran from the lounge down the boarding ramp into her car, Ellana hot on her heels. Seeing her Lifemate hop into her car, Ellana giggled. "See you soon, dear Nikki." She said pressing the button to raise the boarding ramp, before walking back into her a shuttle a smile on her face.

MiB FIELD REPORT (TASK FORCE ELLANA)

CASE NUMBER:- EL117825

Locations:- Central Park, Macy's Department Store, New York City, USA

Dates:- 11/04/2024- 11/05/2024

Incident:- Close Encounter of the Fourth Kind

Attending agents:- L ( Senior Lead Agent) M ( Probationary Agent)


Support team 05:- P( Lead Agent) N( Probationary Agent and Data Analyst) K (Communication and Drone Specialist l) D(Logistics) J (Driver)



Status: Ongoing


Report Summary:-


It had been three days since Nikki and Ellana's Halloween night until Ellana had surfaced once more. We had decided to tail Nikki in the hopes that Ellana would reveal herself by visiting Nikki at her precinct because of Sanderson's up coming birthday celebrations, but a call from Agent P revealed that Ellana had already replaced a Ms Tiffany Danvers, student from Columbia in Central Park. And thanks to Agent N, who had tracked Ms Danvers cell phone we had her location. It seems she was heading to Macy's to shop for a gift for Nikki's 22nd birthday.


However, thanks to the busy Manhattan traffic we were delayed and would later learn from P that in this delay Ellana had replaced a Mrs Melanie Atwell, who was later found in the parking structure naked in her trunk. Once we arrived myself and M decided to make a tactical decision to acquire the uniforms of two store security guards, in order to track Ellana utilising the stores CCTV network and make our task that much easier. After incapacitating two female security guards and taking their uniforms, we gained entry into the security office just in time to see Ellana replace Ms Talitha Chang, a store clerk at Macy's Jewellery Store on camera. I stole the store security tape and instructed N to wipe the stores video records to destroy any evidence of Ellana on tape, before giving chase.

Despite our best efforts, Ellana was able to elude us having replaced a young waitress, Valerie Stephenson in the side alley and using her moped to slip away. I then called Agent P to meet us at Macy's and it was there we learned the full extent of her infiltration of the department store. We found two naked women in the second floor ladies restroom; one a heiress Casey Turnbull, 24 and the other Gina Brownlee, 28( Alias Elaine Keating) a British career criminal with an Interpol arrest warrant on her head. After neuralysing both women, we handed Ms Brownlee over to the authorities and came up with a suitable cover story; the women having allergic reactions to the Midnight Melody perfume and the department store being subjected to a surprise security audit.


It wasn't until the night after, the day of Nikkis 22nd that Ellana had revealed herself once again. She had replaced a Ms Shauna Mulhoney, 24 a Dental Nurse in Central Park for something to wear to Sanderson's celebrations. Having tracked Nikki's cell to the Protect and Serve Bar, we decided that we should let Ellana enjoy the party since arresting a seemingly innocent girl at a policewoman's party wasn't prudent. Instead we payed out respects to Nikki and left in peace.


We are currently monitoring the situation and waiting for when Ellana will show herself again. When she does we will be ready.


Signed

Is it wrong if I say the first thing I did was to check if the story was also published as a birthday celebration for the start of Ellana's story?

Not much to say about the story. It expands on the latest big development of Nikki's and Ellana's relationship.

Still having a soft spot for the "two girls locked in the same toilet stall" trope.

So the MIB guns are half-flashball, half-stun-gun...?

No not at all, Ellana is only 7 months old since her first appearance in the story Night Shift , which also introduced Nikki and was written back in January , so her birthday on the board is not until next year. Although her in universe birthday is Zenobian Unification Day, which is our Christmas Day.


Yep, since Nikki and Ellana haven't had much time to bond with Ellana flying around the world so I thought it ample time to deepen their relationship and to expand on Nikki herself by introducing her mom, Deborah. Who herself will become an important character in later chapters. The next story will feature the development of Nikki's relationship with Liv and Ellana's mission to do her nest friend a favour before she sets off again.


Yeah, the MiBs stun pistol generates a ball of electric energy that stuns a target on contact and renders a woman unconscious for a period of up to 2 hours. It works by turning a targets CNS against them. The technology itself is alien and is standard issue for agents like L & M when bringing in a fugitive alive. Although it's now being used against the humans it was originally designed to protect.

I'm not quite sure it's good news for Deborah...

Well it will certainly be a shock for her when she finds out her daughters best friend is an alien shapeshifter but looking past that, she might she the value in Ellana's abilities particularly in her line of work.

Another great chapter!

Some great knocks too.

First off, liked the action of the take out of Tiffany. Great to picture Ellana basically take to the ground and then straddle her before giving her the neck chop.

Then we get a wonderful neck pinch on Melanie. We also get the wonderful "Enjoy your nap" comment.

I particularly liked the wonderful take out of Angelina and Phillipa. Great the way your described the effect of the blast on the women. And the way you described Phillipa I picture her as the kind of girl I find super cute. Also loved the comment "you take blue eyes on the bench, she's your size" Adn also sexy that Phillipa was wearing a camisole.

The take out of Talitha was quite sexy. First Ellana entrances her with the pheromones then puts her to sleep with the kiss. And I really liked the image of her laying her over the counter. Then a great description of the stripping. Also liked the idea of hiding her under the counter too.

Also really enjoyed the take out of Valerie. Love to imagine her getting the neck chop and then slumping unconscious over the moped.

And of course there were plenty of other wonderful scenes!

Great new chapter!

I really love your description of the stun pistol. I like that it is actual a ball of energy that renders a woman unconscious when hit. Neat idea that "it works by turning a targets CNS against them." Something really cool about the idea of the woman's central nervous system being overwhelmed to the point it shuts her consciousness off.

It is interesting that "although it's now being used against the humans it was originally designed to protect." It is interesting the MiB do not have qualms about using it on their victims. While knocks them out quickly it does cause some brief pain as we see Phillipa "squeaked in pain as the blondes electric ball struck her in her left breast"
