Yuri's apartment was on the third floor and Xena highly doubted that the stairs were rated to support her 3/4 of a ton weight. So, like many things she knew couldn't support her weight, she had to use her flight to float off the ground.

  If someone were paying attention as she walked up the stairs, they would notice that she treated them like a character in a video game would, her feat never actually making true contact with them.

  They passed by one of her neighbors that rubber-necked at our passing, her eyes unable to believe the sight of the new Yuri, or perhaps the unknown Caucasian dy accompanying her. The neighbor was left on the stairs as they arrived at her door, Yuri deftly fishing out her keys and letting Xena in first.

  "Here we are. My humble abode."

  and it was fairly humble despite its decent size. The wallpaper was old and yellowed with a few tears here and there revealing the cracked brick underneath, but it is spacious. If it were in any other city like New York or LA it would go for a princely sum, but in good old decaying Brockton Bay it was a dime a dozen.

  The building was from the 80's and the appliances were from the 90's, no Panasonic but plenty Samsungs. The only modern things were the ft screen and, when Yuri opened her bedroom door, the gaming set-up. Though that was the highlight of her room, the pin-up posters of anime men and the collection of anime figurines informed Xena about the Asian's secret love of the fine arts.

  "Alright then, Let's get you moved out."

  With a needless cracking of her knuckles, she started to inventory everything she saw.

  Computer? Check.

  Bed? Check.

  A pile of yaoi doujin stashed under the far end of her bed? denied.

  Wardrobe? check.

  Suspicious "massage" wand? alright.

  Xena quickly cleaned up Yuri's bedroom then quickly moved onto the bathroom, grabbing anything that wasn't bolted down. Upon her entrance into the st room of Yuri's apartment, the living room/ kitchen, she saw Yuri had moved her couch and was proceeding to pry up a floorboard.

  "Yuri, I know lumber is expensive, but I don't think it would be a good idea to take the flooring."

  Yuri briefly paused, did a double take and went back to pulling up the floor saying. " What? No! I have a hidden stash here that I think would be useful... AHah here it is!"

  Yuri pulled off the board and pulled out the hidden contents, that being a Glock 40 and a bundle of Benjamins. Xena stared at the Asian with a bnk expression.

  "Did you know that Glock dealt with selling horse cum before they got into making guns? Makes you wonder if there is a connection there, don't it?" Xena continued inventorying the furniture and even the items Yuri pulled out of her hidden cubby before finally cpping her hands.

  "All done, let's leave your keys with the building manager and head out. Momma wants to see what's the big idea about the Boardwalk."

  Yuri repced the board to the hidey hole, and they walked down to the lobby. A convenient drop box stood for just such things and with a closed lid, Yuri was free to leave. Just as Xena was going to open the front door, they were stopped by somebody calling out to Yuri.

  It was the woman they passed on the way up. Now with more focus brought to her, Xena could see she was a middle-aged Asian dy wearing a cream-colored turtleneck sweater and an old-fashioned waist high pair of blue jeans.

  "Yuri? What happened to you? When did you get back from your trip? And are those impnts? Wow, they are massive!" The older Asian went on and on about this or that and somehow managed to return the topic back to Yuri. The woman in question just stood there like a whipped husband as Xena watched with a growing smile.

  "Oh, and where are my manners, Yuri, why don't you introduce us?"

  Yuri looked embarrassed and nervous all at once at the middle-aged Lady's polite order.

  "Oh-uh, Ms. Lee, This is my partner, Xena. Xena, this is-was my Landlord, Ms. Lee. She owns this building."

  "Nice to meet you, Xena!" Ms. Lee said exuberantly while extending her hand out to shake.

  "You as well, Ms Lee." Xena nodded as she shook the middle-aged woman's hand. Though she did notice that said woman put extra strength into the shake, likely trying to intimidate the only Caucasoid in the room, but Xena just smiles and matches the strength- pound for pound.

  Ms. Lee's ever-present smile falters for a moment before she relents, acting like everything is fine while throwing out a question to the two.

  "So, I never knew you had such... tastes, what happened to that Danny boy you always brought in?"

  "Aaaah, Danny, well-er, he-" Yuri stuttered out trying to not directly lie to the older woman before being cut off by Xena.

  "-Lost his head. Danny thought he could take on another girl and Yuri here decided she needed to leave the retionship, luckily I found her and helped free her from such a toxic pairing." She possessively pulled Yuri in by the waist, causing the younger Asian to blush at the intimacy.

  "Hmm? and are those impnts before or after you two hooked up?" Ms. Lee gave a squinty eyed stare at Xena, her arms crossed under her modest bosom.

  "They aren't actually impnts; they are a result of a parahuman I know. I can hook you up too, if you want? turn those double As into nice perky DD’s? Heck They could even give your, admittedly, nice behind a tune-up."

  Ms. Lee's left eye twitched and she looked like she was going to draw blood with how white her grip had become on her forearms. Yuri looked pale as a sheet as she looked at the volcano in blue jeans nearing eruption. But for everyone's sake she simmered down, took a deep calming breath and smiled at Xena.

  "No thank you, Though I do have to ask. Where are you two pnning on going dressed like that?" The judgement on her eyes was uncanny.

  "I was pnning on showing Xena the boardwalk since she's new to Brockton Bay. Maybe get her to try Fugly Bob's."

  Yuri sounded so innocent, despite the blush creeping on her face from knowing that she wasn't just going to be showing Xena around but also probably riding her dick along the way too.

  Xena shifted her stance causing her dress to be distorted by her huge member which hung like a pendulum between her knees.

  The older dy's eyes nearly bugged out upon notice of the bulge in the garishly shiny pink fabric and her mouth went dry. A small inkling of why Yuri jumped ship, as it were, to join Xena. The slitted dress, the backless Halter top, and how freely the monster cock swung also made Ms. Lee aware of the fact that the "woman" in front of her was also going commando.

  She honestly wasn't sure if she was mad or just embarrassed that she grew wet thinking about that.

  "...Oh-kay, when will you be back, Yuri?"

  "OhImnatcomminback." Yuri mumbled out.

  "Come again?"

  Yuri inhaled and spoke a bit louder but also slower. "I'm not coming back, Ms. Lee. I am moving in with Xena... We have already grabbed all of my things. I just dropped my keys in the bin and was about to leave before you stopped us."

  Xena saw the moment the hurt entered Ms. Lee's eyes and it kind of made her feel bad about what she was doing, but only a little.

  "Hey, we can come by to visit in the future. You know, stop by to say hi, and maybe trade stories?"

  Yuri tried to reconcile but judging by the unchanging Ms. Lee, it did not nd.

  "A-Anyways, I'm sure you two need to get going. It was nice meeting you Xena, and Yuri, you take care. Just give me a call and we can get together sometime ter."

  "It was nice meeting you Ms. Lee, have a pleasant day!" Xena shook hands with Ms. Lee one st time and Yuri waved goodbye as they left the older dy standing there with a conflicted expression on her face.

  They walked down the concrete path towards where Sherrel was idling, the sound of some Cssic rock muffled by the car's insution. Yuri knocked on the driver’s side window to get the distracted Blonde's attention, but it wasn't until she gave it a solid knock that she finally noticed the two women standing outside.

  Sherrel smiled at the sight of Xena and rolled down the reinforced window, the loud booming Rock bsting out into the open air.

  "What took you guys so long?!"

  "We got caught up talking to Yuri's old Landdy. But we are ready to head to the Boardwalk now!" Yuri had gone to open the back door as Xena raised her voice to reply.

  "Oh yeah! The Boardwalk. I haven't been there either, too busy running sup-"

  Sherrel's comment was cut short as the sound of a Police siren came near and barely a second before a red blur came speeding around the corner before stopping in front of the car.

  Not long after the now revealed PRT cape, Velocity, stopped, a blue tinkertech motorcycle followed with lights bring. On said bike was the Meme of the hour, Armsmaster. Or as many online have nicknamed him, Halbeard, for the fact that he always left his lower face open revealing a meticulously groomed beard and his main choice of armament being a tinkertech halberd.

  The nascent cape group stopped what they were doing as the Blue powered armor wearing turned off the siren leaving the fshing reds and blues before dismounting and walking together with Velocity towards them.

  Sherrel finally turned off the radio as Xena walked towards them.

  "Good morning, Officers? Is there something wrong?"
