MONSTER HUNTING

Hot Dr. Chen

With the sun had finally come up, Dane started closing his eyes. He hasn't slept a wink for the whole night!

Charlize watching him sleep made her sleepy as well. She would rather skip work and 'mourn' for her friend, staying back home. But not before covering Dane with a blanket to make him feel cozy to finally slip into slumber.

While Dane slept peacefully after a night - a week of wholesome and gruesome incidents, Charlize got up and started preparing for a bath.

She didn't realize she still had the blood stains of the monster on her clothes. Thank god they were dark colored - or the police might have another round of questions ready for her.

Taking a long, warm shower in her bathroom, she tried to relax her mind from vile thoughts. What if it wad just some random person instead of Ruth? Would it have been more easier to drive the rebar in their chest or harder than she did it with Ruth? She couldn't decide.

Fifteen minutes pass, but the time only seemed ticking faster on her watch. She suddenly realised that the police would run a forensic investigation on Ruth. How she died, or how she even got herself into an unexplainable accident.

"Fuck it! I'm not even a good liar at this point." Cursing at herself in a whispering tone, she applied some tinted lip balm so her face doesn't exactly look malnourished and distraught, like she hasn't slept in weeks!

Dialing herself a cab, she set her destination towards a center. A forensic scientist's clinic.

Dr. Makio Chen is a famous forensic investigator and a brave doctor who performed several surgeries in her carrier. She was easy to recognise as well. She had tan skin for an Asian lady and is as tall as a tree. She is at a whooping 6 foot 1 inch height, making her feel single for the most of her 30 year old life.

"Hello," Charlize spoke to the receptionist at her private clinic, "May I please visit Dr. Chen? I'm a visitor—"

"I'm sorry, but Dr. Chen is booked for today. Please come again later." Charlize furrowed her eyebrows. She didn't like the way the receptionist spoke to her.

"But I made an appointment last night." The receptionist - J. Jules - looked at her nonchalantly. With shrugging shoulders, she said,

"Still booked."

Charlize tried not to smack the teenager in her face. She popped out the bubble gum from her mouth and started speaking to someone on the phone. Even with Charlize staring down at her with a glare. Noticing Charlize who wasn't budging, the receptionist gave her conversation with her 'boyfriend', a break.

"I'm sorry miss, but do you need something?"

She was a regular human. And that was a problem.

If Charlize realised that she was a monster and acknowledged her as one, the monster would transform, take over her. Then, Charlize could clap her cheeks and make a hole in her chest with her powers.

She was considering doing that to a basic human right now.

"Yes. What I need is—"

"Charlize?"

On that day, J. Jules was saved from mouth-ripping embarrassment.

"Dr. Chen." The said doctor approaches them with blood on her hands and blue-white surgical attire all over her face and hands.

"Come in," Dr. Chen invites Charlize inside, both sending a glare towards the receptionist. J. Jules who stood firmly then whispered to herself,

"Oh boy...I'm so gonna get fired today."

"What brings you here, Charlize? For all I know, you shouldn't even be here."

"I know, I know Makio. But there's a fucking big problem."

"Hmm...and that is?"

"I showed a regular human my super powers. On top of that, he knows I have the ability of both. He knows that I'm special!" Makio widened her eyes. Removing on glove at the speed of light, she punches Charlize in her guts!

"What the fuck...!" Charlize almost started heaving. Makio removed the other glove as well. She glared at her subordinate. Cursing how careless she was.

"Tell me everything, Liz. Everything. Because I know no one compelled your ass to reveals secrets one after the other. To a regular human, too? How fucking careless—"

"Okay, okay! Stop chewing me out, jeez! Well, what happened was..."

Sat at the couch opposite to one another, Makio listens to everything that Charlize reports to her fluently. Her narcissistic abilities promoted half of her spilling of beans, actually.

"...And he was shocked to know that I am indeed special among regular hunters, haha! Who thought—" Charlize flinched when Makio got up from the couch. She wasn't sudden, she got up softly. Approaching Charlize on the couch to sit beside her, she looked her dead in the eye,

"Liz..."

"Y-Yes ma'am?"

"This is your last time being fucking ignorant. Next time I catch you spilling shit to random people...I'll pull your gut from your asshole myself. Got that?" Charlize took a loud gulp down her throat. The threat was imprinted on her mind, because she knew Dr. Chen doesn't lie.

It's too easy for her to pull her guts from her asshole anyway. It's her professional hazard.

"Yes ma'am..."

The two hail a cab — receptionist quickly fired and the clinic shut down for the day. Dr. Chen throws the bills from her bra to the man who drove them back to Charlize's house.

...The man quietly sniffed the notes, loving the scent of a tall woman.

Knocking on the door of her own house, Charlize made sure her best friend's boyfriend wasn't in any other compromising position.

For example...pumping something vigorously on the couch to release some stress.

"Open the goddamn door." Running on alarmingly thin thread of patience, Dr. Chen was about to kick the door open.

"He's mourning, you know. He wouldn't do shit until his mind tells him otherwise." As Charlize opened the door with the spare keys from under the rug, Dr. Chen said.

They see Dane walking out of the bedroom lazily. He wore kilos of eyebags under his eyes. Charlize knew he cried himself to sleep several times already. It's literally 11 in the morning.

"Whoa," he said, looking at the tall woman.

"You're a huge woman, alright."

Charlize felt her eye twitching at his words.

If it were any other man, Dr. Chen would've run her autopsy on her while he was still alive. But it's a special case today.

She laughed.

"Well thank you, Dane Summers. If you don't mind us, we have to look for something in your body." She cracks a joke.

Charlize did not find that funny.

While Dane stared at them in confusion, Charlize sighed and tells him,

"Dane, she's Dr. Chen.

She's my senior."

"Senior in what...exactly?"

"...Monster Hunting."
