Part One
Leona Ozaki knocked firmly on the door, waited for the faint cry of "Come in!" and walked into the Chief of Police's office. The short, dark brown haired officer stood in front of his desk and said simply "We've got a problem.".
The Chief sighed, "So, what else is new?" The white haired, overweight man looked up from his paperwork with a peeved expression on his face. "What is it this time?" he asked. Leona noticed the bags under his eyes were a little bit less noticable, today. Still, he looked pretty ragged, like always. She wondered sometimes what the Tank Police would do if he ever retired.
"It's about the Pumas..." Leona started as she pushed her hair up and out of the way of her light brown eyes.
The chief looked at her with surprise. "Sgt. Ozaki, I though you were over that." he said mildly. "Your last report said they were fitting in nicely."
"That's not the problem." Leona said with a sigh. "Did you know about their living arrangements?" Leona asked. He just looked at her blankly. "They were living on the street. And NOW they've had the bright idea of moving into the police morgue."
She got up and paced around the room a bit while she gestured. "It wasn't a bad idea, except for the glass walls. As far as I can tell, most, if not all, of the male officers and quite a few ladies are sneaking in after hours and before work to watch them undressed..." Turning, she noticed the Chief's bright blush. Leona rolled her eyes.
"We have got to get them out of there before something serious happens." Leona said dryly and resumed her pacing. "We could always move them in with someone." Leona mused to herself thoughtfully.
"That's an excellent idea," he said firmly, an odd look in his bloodshot eyes. Leona suddenly had a sinking feeling. "Move them into your suite. I understand you have a sofa bed, and I'll have an extra strippend added to your pay to cover any additional costs." he finished, and bent down to his paperwork again.
Leona protested, of course, but once the Chief got any new idea into his head, it was very difficult to dislodge them. After about ten minutes, she sighed and left the office, and went to let the Pumas know about the new living arrangements.
Leona looked around at the controlled chaos as she walked into the crowded squad room. Her immediate superior, Squad Leader Brenten smirked at her, as if he knew what had been awaiting Leona in the Chief's office. He paled a bit under her glare and edged away slowly, knowing he still owed her for when he dumped that committee meeting on her.
Habana , who used to drive her tank before Anna came along, sat in his wheelchair and glared at his paperwork covered desk as if by sheer force of will he could make it all go away. As soon as Leona came into sight he resumed working on it frantically.
Shinozaki just towered over everybody, even when he was crammed into a little desk. The blone hared Asada looked over his shoulder, as she checking the requisitions for mistakes. They all treated poor Shinozaki like a rookie, but sadly he didn't mind too much, due to a serious lack of self confidence.
Along with Anna, they were Leona's squad. "Anna, Uni! Fall in!" she barked. The two new officers appeared in front of her in seconds, mostly because they had climbed over other peoples' desks to do so. The two girls stood at attention, amazonian twins who were nearly a foot taller than Leona. Golden hair and eyes, along side their very well endowed bodies made them the officers most men actually wanted to be arrested by.
Leona opened her mouth to say something, and noticed the crowd watching eagerly, not to mention the angry officers who's desks the catgirls had just trampled over. "Come on," she said, and lead the catgirls off while a general sigh of disappointment hung behind her.
"I wonder if this is when a superior officer will proposition us sexually in exchange for an opportunity for advancement?" Anna thought aloud.
"It could be." Uni agreed with a cheery nod. "Do you think she'll demand kinky sexual practices from us?" Uni asked her sister eagerly.
"I hope so!" Anna said enthusiastically.
Leona sweatdropped at that, even as she noticed several of the passing officers giving them all some fairly odd looks. Toku from forensics leaned his round body weakly against the wall and looked like he was almost ready to faint from his massive nose bleed.
The women's locker room was deserted, thankfully, as Leona quickly hustled the two girls in. "Would you two stop that!" Leona shouted. Both tried to look innocent. Leona sighed. "You two can't stay in the morgue any more." Leona began.
"Why not?" Anna asked Leona with a cute little frown. "I mean, there's only dead guys in there, and they don't mind."
"And I thought the other officers really liked coming to look at us through the morgue's windows!" Uni protested. She frowned as well as she asked "Or is this one of those odd human custom things?"
"No," Leona replied, as she fought back a smile, "it's because it's taken almost twice as long to get Tank Police emergency call responses in the morning. Usually around the time when you're getting changed." Both Catgirls stopped and gave her a considered look. "What?" Leona asked, a little flustered by their steady gazes.
"How exactly do you know about when we were getting changed?" Uni asked her with a very suspicious look.
Anna chimed in "Unless you were one of our admirers?"
Leona blushed. "Well, it was only one morning, and I stumbled upon you accidentally." Both girls gave her very skeptical looks. "Anyway," Leona continued hurriedly, "the chief wants you both out of there."
Anna sighed softly and looked over at her sister. "It looks like it's back to living in the dumpster for us, Uni."
Uni nodded sadly in agreement. "At least the snacks are free: all you can catch." she said as she tried to cheer herself and Anna up.
"Actually, no." Leona said reluctantly. Both girls turned to face her. "I have a sofa bed you two can use..." Leona started to say, and was cut off as the two catgirls squealed and gave her simultaneous flying hugs. After a few moments, a red faced Leona managed to gasp out "Can't breathe!" and the two backed off.
Taking a few moments to catch her breath, Leona finally continued "Meet me at the tank bays with your stuff, after our shifts end, and then we'll head over to my suite." Leona stopped for a moment, remembered something else she wanted to say to them. "And stop trying to set me up with other officers!"
Anna and Uni both tried to look innocent, and failed. "I know you told him my bike was broken," Leona said to them dangerously. "I don't need romance in my life right now." she finished a little more gently.
Both catgirls looked suitably repentant. Then, Uni slowly smiled at Leona, a warm smile that for some reason made her feel a bit nervous. "Thank you for helping us," Uni said, as the two headed back to work, "boss."
Anna nodded firmly in agreement, and also smiled that odd little smile at the increasingly nervous Leona. "Yeah, boss, thank you."
Leona watched them go, puzzled. Why call her boss? Wasn't that what they used to call Buaku when they worked for him? She shook her head, decided to worry about it later and went back to her desk.
She passed Rerika and blonde Suzuna from the secretarial division as they sat by the police reception desk gossiping again. Rerika gave Leona a shy smile, pushing her dark hair away from her face, and Leona cursed ever praising the little ditz. Still they were improving, so she let it go.
Rerika sighed softly, watching Leona walk away from them. She still remembered Leona charging to her and Suzuna's rescue when they were overwhelmed by the street gang. She masterfully took control of the situation, then she used the tank's robot arm to pass Rerika a note.
She blushed as she pressed down on her breast pocket, and heard the crinkle of the card there: "Your safety's still on, dear!" Later that day, she met Leona leaving, and Leona actually said to her "Good show. You did good."
Rerika had never been praised by such a famous officer before, and it filled her with a new resolve! She would be a better police officer and make Leona proud!
Suzuna looked over her friend and shighed softly. The girl's crush was so obvious. Suzuna just wished Rerika would notice her loyal best friend, instead!
Back at the locker room, Uni smiled at her sister as they walked out together. "The boss needs a love life, you know. It's important. A basic human need."
Anna nodded in agreement. "Not to mention it's fun. It could even be bad for Boss's health if she doesn't. We're going to have to do something about that."
The two smiled widely at each other as they nodded in agreement.
"You're moving in with Leona?" Asada asked Anna disbelievingly. It was the second time she had repeatred the statement, as the information took a bit of time to sink in. Anna didn't seem to understand the odd looks she was getting from her squad mates.
"That explains a great deal," Habana commented wisely from his desk. "Leona never dates, she even turns down everyone's offers." He then looked speculatively at Anna, "And of course, we have to consider her... fixation on machines!"
Shinozaki blushed, his eyes as big as saucers. He sat down with a thump at his own desk, the poor chair creaking under the strain.
"What?" Anna asked, looking around the circle of officers with a cute little frown. A light suddenly seemed to dawn behind her eyes as she said "Oh, do you mean she's a lesbi..."
"Who's a what?" Leona asked the group curiously, coming up from behind them. Everyone frantically gestured to Anna, nonverbally pleading with her to shut up.
Of course, Anna didn't. "We were just speculating if you were a lesbian, Boss" she explained to Leona cheerfully. The room became deathly quiet. Leona silently pulled out her gun, checked to see if it was loaded with rubber bullets, and then opened fire.
"Ow! Ow! Owowowow!" Anna yelled, as Leona pelted her and the others with rubber bullets. A final shot, and Leona poped her empty clip to reload.
"If any of you ever decide to have that conversation again, we'll be repeating this treatment with tank shells! Got it?" she roared!
Anna, a large bandaid stuck to the side of her head, saluted and said "Yes, Boss!
A few hours later Leona stepped ouaside a moment, to savor the last rays of the setting sun. A few years ago, Newport had been shrowded with polution clouds, like much of the world. No one really knew how the air was cleaned, though a bio-engineered creature called Greenpeace was thought to be responsible. Both she and Buaku hadn't been seen since, so nobody could ask them.
Leona went back inside and leaned tiredly up against her motorcycle as she waited for Anna and Uni. It had been a really long day, but she realized she sort of looked forward to the trip. Anna and Uni turned the corner into the bay and each carried a very large duffel bag with them. Leona looked them and their large bags over, then over at her not so large bike. This was going to be a interesting trip, she thought.
"You're taking up too much of the seat," Uni soon complained.
"There's not that much of the seat to take," Anna responded mildly.
Leona just blushed, as Anna pressed herself snugly against her back. They had strapped the bags down first to the back of the bike's seat, then Leona, Anna and Uni had just barely managed to squeeze on. Of course, whoever was in the middle got pressed up firmly against Leona, as she was the one driving. And to make matters worse, the sisters wanted to trade off regularly, and seemed to enjoy being in the middle.
In short, they probably made quite the traffic slowing sight as they made their slow way home. Anna and Uni seemed to love to show off to the other drivers stuck in rush hour traffic, and for Leona's sake too. She still had a faint blush from their last outrageous stunt when they finally pulled up to her building.
"Would you two please put your tops back on, now?" Leona asked them plaintively. Both Uni and Anna pouted a bit, but did so. Leona put her bike in it's secure lockup, and led the two to the elevator. "Fourth Floor." she said into the speaker.
"Wow, boss!" Anna said, "Voice activated lift?" Leona just nodded silently.
"Is something wrong, boss?" Uni asked with a frown on her pretty face. Leona started a bit, and blushed.
"Sorry, I just have things on my mind." Leona said. Actually, she was thinking how good Anna and Uni had looked topless. 'What am I thinking, I'm not into girls!' she thought.
The elevator jerked to a stop, and Leona led them down the hall. She quickly keyed the door open, and led them on a quick tour. "We'll hang up some of your stuff in the hall closet here," Leona said, gesturing, "the sofa bed's in the living room here, it's pretty big." She pointed, "TV, stereo, and book cases. The kitchen's just off the living room, and my bedroom's just over here." She smiled as the two restlessly paced about the rooms, as curious as any cat. "Toss your stuff on the chair, there, we'll sort it out later."
Uni paced to Leona, leaned over, and then kissed her gently on the cheek. "Thank you, boss." she said to Leona quietly.
Anna stepped up, while Leona was still mildly surprised, and kissed the other cheek as well. "Boss, we really appreciate this."
Leona blushed, suddenly speechless. "Ah, you're welcome," she said shakily, after she had recovered a bit. She moved over to the kitchen and began to get pans and food out. "Get ready for dinner, but don't get your hopes up," Leona said with a grin.
Dinner went well, the catgirls were enthusiastic eaters, they cried out happily with every bite and by bed time, Leona had, mostly, put the two kisses out of her mind. She showed them how to pull out the sofa bed, set the timer for coffee and everyone's breakfast, and with a smile and wave wished them good night.
