Fan Fiction ❯ Meet The Friends ❯ Epesode 1: Meet the friends ( Chapter 1 )

Okay, first off before you begin reading, I'd just like to remind you that these stories are not spin-offs from Esthenia, Realm Hoppers, ect… There is no use of special powers, no previous encounters of the characters. It's just a group of friends who like to have some fun.

"This place is awesome!!" the sphinx anthro exclaimed as she looked around the apartment room on the eleventh floor.

"You have to admit…" a horse anthro youth said. "The view up here is nice."

"I'm glad we moved here. Now I can finally find a good job in the city."

"Hylooo!!!"

The horse and sphinx spun around to find a dragon-anthro youth standing in their doorway. He had long silver hair and two large horns on his head just above his pointed ears. He wore a tight black tee shirt and a pair of leather pants.

"I see we have new neighbors!!" the dragon exclaimed. "It's about time someone rented this room out. It was beginning to get a little quiet up here after that other couple left."

"OTHER??" the sphinx exclaimed, her face turning pink. "No! We're not a couple!"

"Oh…" the dragon smiled. "Good, he's free…"

"Uh…" the horse gulped. His face flushed too.

"Tsuniker!!!" a dragon-leopard anthro appeared in the door. She had a rolled up newspaper in her hand. She smacked the dragon upside the head with it. "Stop harassing the new neighbors! You're the reason why the other ones left!!"

"Come on Zera!" Tsuniker wailed as he rubbed his head. "I was just having a little fun!"

"Fun doesn't involve flirting!!" Zera hissed. She then looked away from Tsuniker at the spinx and horse. She bowed. "Konnichi-wa! I'm Zera and this is Tsuniker. We live in the room next door."

"I'm Esthenia." the spinx said, and then pointed to the blushing horse. "And this is Pagasis. We came from the country to find new jobs here."

"Did you come here to get drunk too?" Zera asked as she held up the infamous can of bad-imitation-wiley beer.

"Uhh…"

"HI!!!!"

Pagasis let out a terrified yelp as a body flung itself from the door and latched around his waist. He looked down to see long red-ish black hair and a pair of long black ears.

"Uh…" he stammered as he lightly touched it.

A white face looked up at him with a loud squeal. A pair of pinkish-blue eyes stared at him.

"Hyellooo!!!"

Pagasis could hardly keep his balance as the stranger wrapped herself tighter around his waist. He fell over with the girl still on him. He looked up at Esthenia.

She smiled then lightly kicked him on the head.

"I see how it works!!" she hissed. "You move here and already grab girls up for hire!!"

"What!!!"

"Will you all keep it down… I can't even hear the music…"

The group looked to the door and once more, someone was standing there. It was a tall dragon antrho with long horns and green and black hair.

"Hey, what's up jack-ass!" he winked at Pagasis. "It's been a while."

"D-Dracos!!" Pagasis marveled. "No way! I haven't seen you since high-school! How have you been Drak-ass?"

"I've been fine." Dracos said. He then spotted Esthenia. "Oh, I see you're getting better luck then I did…"

"Uh…" Esthenia blushed.

"You know who she reminds me of…" Dracos said as he looked her over. "She reminds me of that freaky nerd that was in our class…"

"Umm…" Pagasis gulped.

"Excuse me!!!" Esthenia hissed as she got up into Draco's face. "That was me!!!"

"E-Esthenia!!!" Dracos gasped. "Oh… shit!!"

He attempted to run but Esthenia grabbed him by the back of the pants and pulled a huge wedgie on him.

"I've been wanting to do that for a long time." Esthenia smiled as she clapped her hands together.

Dracos was in tears.

"She crushed my nuts!!!"

"Oh… um, could you let go of me now!?" Pagasis asked the girl who was still clinging to him.

"Hey! Mupo!" Zera shouted as she pointed to the door with her newspaper. "Look! It's Sheirow! Sic em!!"

Mupo squealed and ran to the door and threw herself on another unsuspecting visitor.

He was a very tall gryphon anthro. He had very dark skin and bird-like eyes. His shoulder length hair was a very light blonde. He also had very large hands with long inch long talons. He wore a pair of jeans and no shirt.

"Hey, Dracos." Tsuniker said with a grin as he pointed at Pagasis and Esthenia. "Check this out, we both can have a bitch now. You can finally get laid!!"

"What do you mean finally?" Dracos spat.

"So, who are you now?" Pagasis asked the Gryphon.

"Oh, I'm Sheirow." the gryphon said as he shook his hand. "We live down the hall from you guys. I apologize for my wife here, she's a little wasted."

Mupo smiled up at him. Her white cheeks were really red.

"I think we should let these two unpack." Sheirow said. "Let's go to the bar. We've got nothing else better to do for the moment."

"Let's get drunk!" Zera exclaimed.

"I'm nasty when I'm drunk." Tsuniker said as he walked out the door.

"I know you are!" Dracos said. "You dirty bastard…"

Esthenia and Pagasis stood there blankly in the empty room for a moment trying to think of what just happened to them.

"Well…" Pagasis smiled nervously. "We sure have friendly neighbors…"

"Maybe a bit too friendly…" Esthenia sighed.

Later that day, they went out to find a place to eat at since they hadn't done any grocery shopping yet. They found a little place on the corner called "the Kicking Donkey" and entered.

"Look who it is!" Tsuniker exclaimed as he held up a mug full of a yellow substance.

"Well, you seem to know your way around." Zera said as she turned to face them in her bar stool. Her cheeks were really red. "Want to join us?"

Esthenia was about to turn back out when Pagasis grabbed her shoulder and kept her from going anywhere.

"We'd love to." he said.

"I'm sorry…" a voice said.

Esthenia turned her head and saw someone standing right next to her.

He wasn't as tall as the other guys. He had long brown hair with blonde tips pulled back in a spiky ponytail. Poking out of it was his large orange and brown ears. He had a calm expression about him that seemed to match his black clothing.

"Uh…" Esthenia stammered. "Who are you?"

"Wouldn't you like to know…" he said.

Esthenia frowned.

"You're not very nice…" she said.

"I beg to differ…" he said.

"Hey, dumb !$%$!" Dracos cried from across the room. "It's about time you got here. Were you sleeping or sleeping with someone else?"

"That would be my business…" the dragon-cat replied. "If I'd tell you, it would probably lower you ego…"

"Hi HOTTIE!!!" Mupo cried while holding up a mug.

The dragon-cat stared at her for a moment, then back at Esthenia.

"Do you want to lose your mind that much?" he asked her.

"What do you mean?" she asked.

"If you hang out with this group of people, then you'll get sucked into the black hole of stupidity…"

"Leave her alone Torrik." Zera said. "We're trying to get them to like us, not drive them away."

"Yeah!" Mupo called out.

"If you insist…" Torrik said. He then leaned toward Pagasis. "Then I suggest that you guard your ass…"

"What??" Pagasis frowned.

Torrik pointed at Tsuniker.

"He's a homo dude…"

"That explains a lot…" Pagasis nodded.

"So, did you all come here to order a drink or what?" a woman behind the counter asked.

"Yeah Mona." Torrik sighed. "I was just giving these two my blessing..."

"Heh! Blessing…" Dracos said. "More like a piece of your sorry ass…"

"Or your sweet ass!" Tsuniker smiled.

Torrik just shook his head.

"Come on BAKAS!" Zera called. "The booze is getting cold!"

"It's already cold…" Sheirow said.

Torrik sat on the stool next to Dracos. He then turned to Esthenia and Pagasis.

"If you're going to live here, I guess you'll just have to get used to it."
