Dresses & Guns

Mei:
Being able to mourn my parents with my brother, and Aunt felt powerful, like a massive weight had been lifted off my chest. Izzy “poofed” us to my room, so I could get dressed, and I asked her to get Amelia. Two more “poofs” and we were at the Dress salon in the Vampire territory.
Not big of a difference in layouts, but it was darker than normal.
Izzy explained it was a spell that adjusted the sky, so vampires could walk freely during the daytime. When we walked in, a little old lady came sauntering out the back room with a huge smile. She wore a modest black off-the-shoulder flowy top with stone washed jeans, and black flats.
“Izzy, my sweetheart, how are you?” old lady asked sweetly.
“Eve, it’s been a while.” Izzy said hugging her giving a peck on her cheek. Eve turned towards me smiling, holding my hand. She was warm, a were-wolf.
“Who is this beautiful creature?” Eve said motioning for me to bend down to her eye level, same jade color as Izzy, but a little dull.
“This is Mei, my niece. We also found her brother, or he found us.” Izzy said with a squeal. Eve smiled brightly running her hand over my cheek.
“Eve is your Great-Aunt. Great-grandmother’s younger sister.” Izzy said hugging her.
“Wow! So, you know.” I asked looking at her smiling brightly shaking her head “yes”.
“Enough of that, I know why you are here. Luna ceremony.” Eve said clapping her hands turning on her heel. She waved for us to follow her in the back, while her attendant took care of the front. She motioned her hand for us to sit down.
“And who are these beautiful ladies with you?” Eve asked smiling at Amelia and Riley.
“Oh, my rudeness Auntie.” Izzy chirped Eve waving her hands softly.
“This is Amelia, Gamma Seth’s mother and pack doctor, and this is my friend, Beta female Riley.” I said smiling watching the girls greet Eve with smiles.
“Oh, you poor girls.” Eve laughed lightly gaining laughs from us. We understand her comment.
“Ok, as tradition goes for Luna’s, a white or ivory gown is worn for prosperity and fertility. I took the liberty of pulling a few choices, not knowing what you might like, so come with me.” Eve said holding her hand out, pulling me forward.
For an old lady, she has some strength. She had me strip down naked, because I will shift after I make the Luna bond, so as little clothing as possible. She ran her fingers over my scars looking angry, and incredibly sad.
“You my child, wear some serious battle scars.” Eve said helping me with the first dress. I smiled at her softly when she came into view.
“Battles that I fought and won to be here today.” I said looking at myself in the mirror.
Is it possible to find the dress first try? Eve stepped back looking at me, gasping covering her mouth with her hands.
“We look like a Goddess.” Kyou said purring happily.
“Honey, I think this dress was made for you.” Eve said clapping her hands.
“Hurry up we want to see.” Izzy called laughing with the girls. I took a deep breath in, walking out with Eve.
Stepping up on the little platform, looking at the three full-sized mirrors. The girls squealed, smiled, and jumped, running up to me. The dress was simple with ivory chiffon draped over ivory silk that had silver roping under the bust, flowing down to the floor. The top was a V-neck with medium straps that showed enough cleavage.
Thank you Kyou, for explaining that to me.
Amelia and Riley both kneeled and bowed their heads. I waved for them to stand up, they were family.
“Luna.” They both said proudly. Izzy jumped up and down giggling. Eve took me back to change, placing the dress in a travel bag. The girls were waiting for us to return, after I tried paying for the dress. Eve told me it was an incredibly special gift from her and Izzy.
“So, we have the dress, now we need to decide décor.” Amelia said laughing with Izzy.
“Nothing fancy, just simple.” I said smiling as we huddled together to “poof”.
“We can do a rustic country theme.” Riley said looking at me smile about the thought.
“Perfect. Now, where are the boys.” Izzy asked pointing her finger to her cheek after I hung my dress in my closet.
“The gun ranges.” Kyou laughed.
“West training field.” I said walking out of the closet smiling brightly.
I love weapons. I love blowing shit up. Izzy got an evil look and laughed. I think I know what she is up too. Amelia and Riley both had shit eating grins.
“Who is up to show the boys up?” I asked placing my hands on my hips.
“Oh, Hell yeah!” The three screamed. Izzy grabbing us to “poof”.
When we walked out of the woman locker room, we were met with loud laughing and banting as the guys shot at targets about 150 ft down range with various handguns. My favorite is the Smith and Wesson M&P 9 SHIELD with purple, my favorite color. Rocko gifted me a pair for my Luna ceremony, I have been itching to show them off.
Each had a little “Deadpool” figure on the grips with dot sights.
What can I say, he is bad ass and sexy in that suit?
Izzy looked like the woman version of “Rambo”, Amelia and Riley looked more like “Tomb Raider” with the combat pants. As always simple black tank with black combat pants, waist and leg gun holsters, this time combat boots. The guys had no idea that we walked up behind them as a few of the warriors giving us evil smirks.
Oh, that is right boys, we came to play.
“CAN WE JOIN YOU BOYS!” I Boomed standing with my girls, flashing evil smirks as the boys turned around, eyeing us.
Jack looked sexy holding his M&P 15 MOE SBR with the small sweat beads trailing down his flexing biceps. His tribal Wolf tattoo peaking from under his t-shirt sleeve, that he just got last week. Small growls and hisses filled the air as we stalked forward.
“Lexi, I like your choices.” I said smiling at my brother holding the same model of Smith and Wesson just with the Gold option.
“Definitely family.” Max laughed leaning against the shooting platform. Eli looked like he was going to hyperventilate taking in Riley. Seth flashed his mom a bad ass smile.
“You sure you know how to handle that gun, sis?” Lexi chirped smiling sinisterly. I aimed at the target behind his left shoulder, watching as he did not blink when I fired, hair floating gently as the bullet passed his head.
“Direct Hit!” The spotter yelled.
“200 ft.” He followed. Lexi smiled brightly.
“Mei that was not cool.” Seth said smiling looking over at Max with his shit eating grin.
“Fifty on the girls.” Someone shouted.
“Fifty on the guys.” Someone else shouted.
“Hundred on Luna.” Rocko yelled stepping forward, crossing his arms smiling. I gave him a wink.
“Okay. Okay. Who is keeping bets?” Jack yelled looking at the crowd of guys spectating.
“We will.” Jaxon and Braxton said setting up score boards with teams.
“Two ladies will have to shoot again.” Rocko said writing names down and placing them in a hat. Drawing two names.
“Mei and Amelia.” Rocko yelled. Then took two sets of white poker chips each numbered one to six, dropping them in the hat, shaking it good. One by one we pulled our chips until we were done.
“ONE” Seth and Riley stepped forward.
“TWO” Amelia and Max.
“THREE” Desmond and me.
“FOUR” Lexi and Izzy.
“FIVE” Dominic and Amelia. The guys started laughing, passing bets over to Jaxon and Braxton. Jack and I walked forward handing our “sixes” over to Rocko smiling like a kid on a sugar high.
“You can back out now.” Jack said to me pulling me in for a kiss. I patted his chest turning my cheek to him. A low growl vibrating against my chest.
“You know I never back down. No dirty tricks can be played.” I said sauntering over to our staging side.
“Rules are as follows: Each round after each shooter has fired, the winning team will draw randomly for weapon choice. At the end of six rounds, shooter with most points from each team, will face off with weapon of choice of the other shooter. Do I need to repeat myself?” Rocko boomed, so everyone could hear.
“NO” We all shouted at once.
“Then lets begun.” Rocko laughed drawing the first weapon choice.
“Smith and Wesson .38 special.” He called out, two Elites brought over the weapons loaded and ready.
“LET’S KICK SOME ASS!’ Kyou howled in my head. I laughed out loud shaking my head.
This is going to fun!
