I pull up into the gas station on the highway just outside of
Boston. The weather is downright awful: Foggy, drizzling, the
full moon is barely poking out from behind the thick clouds.
It’s dark for a hundred yards in either direction: The gas
station canopy lights are bright, cutting through the shadows
like a hot knife through butter.
I cut the engine of the motorcycle I’m on and flick down the
kickstand, getting off and heading into the station itself after
filling up. Need to grab snacks! Can a girl get by without
snacks? I think not.
I’m sandwiched safely between two shelves, thumbing through bags
of gummies and chips and pretzels and peanuts and rece’s when I
hear the little bell dingle. Someone else has come into the
shop.
CHK-CHK. “THIS IS A STICK UP! PUT THE MONEY IN THE BAG!”
I can’t see it, but a guy in a ski-mask and a leather jacket
just shoved a sawedoff shotgun into the clerk’s face and threw a
knapsack on the counter.
“HURRY UP I AIN’T GOT ALL NIGHT!” he shouts.

Casper was used to being stared at wherever she went, and in
turn she was used to noticing things about others.This gave her
only a half-second of chill between when the guy with the gun
came in and when he shoved said gun into the clerk's face.
Capser was albino, and if you don't know the term, she looked
like a unicorn in human shape, and if that doesn't ring any
bells, there's nothing more to be said. She was wearing a long
slim dress buttoning up the front. Along with hiking boots, and
an oversized brown leather jacket. Her hair was knee length in a
braid.
She slowly turned to the register, clutching her jacket with one
hand. She swepts large pink eyes around to see if anyone else
was in here. She didn't act right away, gaging to see how lethal
this man was in a mind to be.

The guy’s hand is shaking. His pupils are dilated. He’s high on
something -- and of a mind to kill. He’s not fucking around. The
clerk, getting that hint, starts to fumble around with the
register, blurting out reassurances that he’s complying while he
does it.

Hearing the clerk practically whimpering for her life really
gets to me. I manage to dig up something resembling courage, and
peek up over the shelf just barely poking my head up into view.
I narrow my eyes and concentrate…
…and suddenly, out of nowhere, apropo of nothing, the gun goes
flying out of the robber’s hand!

She saw the gun go flying and lunged for it to at least kick
away from his hand if she couldn't actually grab it first.That
was something paranomal, she was sure of it. She didn't have
time to look too closely at itat the moment.
Once she has managed to get the guy she points it at him,
holding it like she's seen on tv crime dramas. "You might want
to reconsider what you're doing," She told him calmly and with a
touch of flirtatiousness. "Think about it. Don't take too long,
though, before the cops get here. Is that a siren I hear?"

He throws his hands in the air and slowly inches for the door,
before making a crazy mad dash out the door and sprinting like a
panicked maniac out into the darkness.
With that situation out of the way, I emerge from behind the
shelves and clear my throat, tucking my hair behind my ear and
approaching the counter with a few bags of chips in my hand.
“Wowzer, am I right?” I finally manage to say, a nervous
laughter following as I place the bags ont he counter.
I am about certain that was the least cool thing I have ever
said in my life.
“Everyone okay? Oh nonono, take your time,” I motion to the
cashier. He’s just been through a traumatic experience, I should
probably give him a minute to get his bearings and reorganize
his cash drawer.
God-fucking-damn the lady with the gun is hot.
“Quick thinking there,” I say. “Thanks.”

Watching the would-be burglar race out of there, Casper pocketed
the gun in an inside jacket pocket. She walked up to the
counter, her hands where they can see them, kind of hugging
herself, and smiling brightly. Yes, she really was a pure
albino. It went beyond that, though; going back to that unicorn
in human form.
"Yes, take your time." She told the clerk, her voice more gentle
than it had been with the robber.
"Yes, it was very *lucky* he was so butterfingered, don't you
think? Things could have gone a completely different way if the
gun hadn't slipped out of his hand like that." She laughed then,
a tinkling sound, and accompanied it with a probing look.
She had no reason to think that was done by Lucy, but she hoped
it was at least noticed by the other woman.

“Yeah that was wild,” I say. “One second his grip was fine, the
next he dropped it!”
hurry up, clerk! I think. But I don’t say that out loud. That
would be rude.
“You buying anything?” I ask the albino lady, not realizing I’m
blushing as I look at her. She’s really… really... really
pretty. “After that display, I ought to reward you somehow for
saving our bacon. Whatever you want in the whole store, it’s on
me,” I smile.

She looked at Lucy closely. "He clearly was on something," she
added thoughtfully and with a slight purr. Then she laughed
lightly again and waved her hands. "Oh, no. I did come in for a
dose of caffeine and something like chips or a donut, but you
don't have to reward me. It was what anyone else would have done
if the moment came to them." She waved one hand away.
She look4ed to see if the clerk was waiting on them, then looked
back to Lucy. "Are you in a rush? I think it could be nice to go
talk about it over dinner?"
She smiled, then turned to the Clerk and after drawing out her
wallet, she slid a folded bill across the table to him, "Here,
this is for your bravery," she mentioned, then looked back at
Lucy.

Dinner?
…wait, with me?
OH MY GOD YES PLEASE PRETTY LADY LET ME FEED YOU.
“Nah, no rush here,” I say, blushing even more. “There’s a diner
not far from here -- if you can handle a good greasy spoon
truckstop meal, anyways,” I laugh.
Oh god I’m a dork in front of the pretty lady. Get it together,
Lucy.
I offer my hand for a handshake. “I’m Lucy,” I say. “What’s your
name?”

She smiled warmly, pretending not to notice the blush. "Greasy
Spoon sounds nice." She replied cheerily, and even clapped her
hands together. If she had a tail, which she didn't, it would be
perked up.
"Here, get your things first, then you can lead the way to the
truckstop. I'm kinda new in town."
"Lucy, what a lovely name! My name is Casper." She held out her
hand to shake.
