Celes looked at the door again, and the clock 
                    above it. It was cold, and pouring rain outside. There would 
                    not be any casual visitors today. Anything that came through 
                    that door would be work. The spotted skunkette shuffled the 
                    papers in her hands softly. They were bills. They were always 
                    bills. The mephit relaxed a bit in her chair and looked again 
                    at the door. The office was small, but efficient, though a 
                    little cluttered and dusty. A rug laid askew at the door, 
                    which had a sign over frosted glass which read "Polecat 
                    Investigators". It was a slightly misleading sign. There 
                    was not another investigator. Just Celes. She sat alone at 
                    her desk. Waiting. Her soft brown eyes looking from door to 
                    bills to door again. She wore a white suede mini-skirt and 
                    a white cotton blouse under a black suede vest. A fairly ritzy 
                    outfit, for a job that was far from it. Celes wore her hair 
                    back in a ponytail, long and flowing, covered with the same 
                    peppering of white as most of the rest of her body. She had 
                    a light, small frame, fairly short of stature. But keen, aware 
                    eyes, alert ears and a sharp mind. As the ceiling fan squeaked 
                    softly overhead, stirring the air in the office to keep it 
                    from going stagnant, the sound of water hitting the bottom 
                    of a bucket began. A leak that had not been fixed in over 
                    a year. It had it's very own bucket, emptied before every 
                    rainy day. The rest of the office was lightly furnished, but 
                    there was a couch against the right wall for customers to 
                    sit. A coat rack (empty of coats) having only a blanket on 
                    it, which Celes kept to wrap around the bucket if it overflowed 
                    a bit during a storm. As Celes found herself tapping a finger 
                    to the rhythm of rain falling into the bucket, the door burst 
                    open! Celes lifted her head slowly. It was difficult to startle 
                    her. A robed figure pressed itself to the door, as it slammed 
                    shut, panting, shivering and soaking wet. Celes looked up 
                    and down this robed figure, saying nothing at fist. It had 
                    its head bowed and wore a sunhat, a white one like girls wear 
                    to their friends weddings, which obscured the downward staring 
                    figure's face; and a robe, jet black, which obscured everything 
                    else. After watching the shape for a while, Celes finally 
                    said, with a feathery voice,
                        "If you would not mind terribly much, 
                    drip over here in front of my desk.  
                    The floor there has not been mopped in a while, and 
                    it could use the water."  
                    While her comment was rather uncaring, her tone seemed 
                    genuinely concerned with getting the figure away from the 
                    door in case someone else wanted to burst through it. The 
                    head of the figure jerked up. A fast glance told Celes it 
                    was another skunk. A very attractive lady skunk… possibly 
                    in her mid twenties.  Her duel lines of white that went down her forehead and to the tip 
                    of her perfect nose on her blunt, lovely muzzle told that 
                    she was a striped skunk, rather than a spotted one like Celes. 
                    Her eyes were jade, looped in gold, around those green irises. 
                    Her body was shaking violently, shivering from the cold. She 
                    rushed the desk and slammed her hands on it, as tears streamed 
                    from those beautiful eyes. 
                        "You is have to help me!  You is just have to!" she squealed. Celes 
                    arched an eyebrow. A foreigner. Her accent and her broken 
                    English were all the proof of that Celes needed. She nodded 
                    and answered in her soft, almost whispering voice again.
                        "Very well. I would love to help you… 
                    let's start… by getting you out of that dripping, soaking 
                    robe before you catch pneumonia and die before I can solve 
                    your current problem."  Celes' voice was always a whisper. In her line 
                    of work a loud voice was not required and a soft one was, 
                    in fact, more useful. So it's all she used. The mephit blushed 
                    slightly and touched her two index fingers together, admitting, 
                    through her tears,
                        "Is… no is have anything under robe… 
                    is just threw on and is ran here… is was not given time for 
                    put anything else on. Is had for run `way!" she cried.  
                    Celes nodded softly and stood up, stretching a bit. 
                    She moved over to the door, and locked it. On a day like this 
                    there would not likely be more than one customer at a time 
                    and it was not useful to the PI to have a customer die of 
                    exposure before she could pay for any services. Celes moved 
                    over to the coat rack and took the blanket off of it, stretched 
                    it out on the couch carefully, and turned to the other skunk.
                        "There…" she whispered, "You 
                    now have a private place to dry off." The girl skunk 
                    blushed again and shook her head, looking very shy.  
                    Celes smiled warmly and pulled her toward the couch. 
                    "Come on… no one else is gonna see you and I promise 
                    I will not take pictures. Take off the clothes, sit down and 
                    dry off.  We will get 
                    you warmed up and then we can discuss your problem. Everything 
                    will be just fine, okay?" Celes said. The skunk nodded 
                    softly. She moved in front of the couch and took of her sun 
                    hat. She handed the wet, floppy headpiece to the skunk that 
                    was so kind as to help her. It was a nice hat. WAS. The feather 
                    that was it's former glower was now a wet, limp string and 
                    the blue ribbon would likely shrink and squeeze the top of 
                    the hat until it was useless. Celes put it on the coat rack 
                    in time to see that the other mephit had already removed the 
                    first three clasps of her robe. One more clasp, and she just 
                    put her arms down by her side. The robe slid off, into the 
                    floor like a puddle. She stepped out of it and turned around 
                    to face Celes. Celes looked up and down this voluptuous example 
                    of a girl mephit. Her legs were sculpted, covered in obsidian 
                    black fur all the way to her inner thighs, which had white 
                    fur all the way up her tummy cresting between her ebony velvet-furred 
                    breasts, which were D-cup at least, very large and firm and 
                    youthful. This girl could be no more than 25 years old, if 
                    that much.  Celes blushed 
                    just slightly, having caught herself staring at the skunkette's 
                    breasts, which were a good two cup sizes larger than hers. 
                    Celes sat on the far end of the couch and nodded to the other 
                    skunk to sit down. She did so, taking her long, full, fluffy 
                    tail and draping it over her lap, blushing deeply. "Now…" 
                    resumed Celes, "… let's start out easy… nothing about 
                    your problem first while we let you warm up. My name is Celes. 
                    What's your name?" She leaned back in the couch, comfortably, 
                    crossing her legs, her hands over her knee, looking into the 
                    skunkette’s tear-soaked eyes intently to try and judge her 
                    level of comfort before asking her what drove her through 
                    the freezing rain, barely dressed, to her door. The other 
                    mephit inhaled shakily and said, with a slight blush still 
                    in her cheeks,
                        "Is… Is named Yomanimurashi Tamblin,” 
                    she stated. "You is can call me Yona." she said, 
                    nodding. Celes nodded slowly. Definitely not a local skunk.  
                    She scooted a bit closer to seem less like she was 
                    trying to avoid the customer.  
                    Celes answered with that soft feathery voice again.
                        "Ahh... Yona it is then. Calm down… 
                    let yourself relax. Dry your tears." she said, giving 
                    Yona a tissue. "I will help you in any way I can. It's 
                    what I do for a living, okay? Do you need a drink? Some scotch? 
                    Gin?" she asked. Yona shook her head softly.
                        "No… no is… no is be thirsty." 
                    She wrung her tail out as if in demonstration of why. Water 
                    cascaded onto the floor. Celes smiled softly and nodded.
                        "Of course, of course." She leaned 
                    in closer, to make sure it seemed her attention was focused 
                    on Yona's problem. "Now… you can tell me. What is it 
                    that is troubling you so? I take it that you would not normally 
                    go running through this kind of weather. Don't worry… I am 
                    not a police officer. You can tell me anything … just be truthful 
                    and I will be able to help you, okay?" she said. It was 
                    her usual line, after all. Yona sat up and dropped her tail, 
                    which lay limply at her feet, still damp. The scent of her 
                    wet fur was accentuated by the scent of a female skunk, which 
                    already had a tendency to fill the shop. But Yona's was even 
                    stronger, with being warm and wet. She stopped shivering.
                        "Is… Is can't… is be scared of telling. 
                    If is tell, is… Is will lose everything! I… is can Celes help 
                    Yona with Yona no telling? Is can … help anyway?" Yona 
                    asked. Her yes were inquisitive, intense and bright. She whipped 
                    her head a bit; shaking what little water was left running 
                    down her face away.  Her striped ponytail whipped over the front of her body, between 
                    the impressive swells of hr breasts. Celes inhaled deeply. 
                    She did not have time for romance with guys. Perhaps that 
                    is why the thought even entered her head to pursue one with 
                    this girl… because she had NOT been involved in years. She 
                    shook away the thought and then lowered her head.
                        "No, Yona, you really do need to tell 
                    me. I can't help you if I have no idea what is going on. We 
                    could both face a lot of problems or even danger if I go in 
                    not knowing." Celes said slowly, and softly, trying to 
                    be as reassuring as she could be. She scooted closer again, 
                    to be there in case Yona felt it necessary to whisper it so 
                    she could not be overheard or recorded on a tape recorder.  Yona blushed softly, and sniffled, wiping her eyes.
                        "Is… Is not… trust anyone. Is can't. 
                    Is was told not too… when is had to start with mission… but… 
                    but is failing. Everything… is out of Yona's control now. 
                    Is… Is can't do it alone. I is need your help… and only yours… 
                    but… but is can't tell you why or what… not until is completed 
                    mission. Is only have one more thing is have to do… but… is 
                    can't do it." She leaned softly against Celes again, 
                    and sniffled heavily, as if she were about to sob again. "I 
                    is be so very lots scared… is alone… is need help," she 
                    whimpered. Celes blushed deeply and put an arm around the 
                    nude Yona. She swallowed softly. In her mind she cursed herself. 
                    This was ridiculous. Why on earth was this arousing her? She 
                    felt that warm tingle along her breasts, her inner thighs 
                    and her loins. It was so strong.  Like heat flowing through them. She had never 
                    been affected by a girl this way before. She wriggled a little 
                    on the couch and placed her chin on Yona's shoulder. She said 
                    in soft, sensitive words,
                        "Oh Yona… Yona it's okay. I'm here for 
                    you. I won't tell anyone, I promise. We will keep the secret… 
                    we will take care of this together, I promise. You can trust 
                    me. If you could trust no one else in the city you could trust 
                    me. Tell me how I can help you," she said, her hand on 
                    Yona’s shoulders, as she looked at her, waiting for Yona to 
                    look into her eyes so that she knew that this skunk was telling 
                    her the truth. Celes had never violated the confidence of 
                    a client. Yona looked up and licked her lips slowly. Her long, 
                    perfect, pink tongue, wetting them, her panting having dried 
                    them out a bit. This sent a sharp tingle up Celes' spine. 
                    Yona spoke softly, under her breath, in a whisper as well.
                        "Is… Is have no way of know… if is can 
                    trust you. Is have no way to know if is care `bout Yona, and 
                    not `bout… about being paid more," she muttered under 
                    her breath. "I is so very much confused… and scared. 
                    Is… Is not know… I is not be sure if I is can trust you yet… 
                    enough for tell you." The nude mephit leaned closer to 
                    Celes with each word, as if to speak softly. Celes felt a 
                    tingle run through her again and simply could no longer hold 
                    it back. She had to know… she had to really know. Without 
                    control, she leaned in and pressed her lips to Yona's, who 
                    gasped sharply, going ridged. Celes closed her eyes tight, 
                    holding the kiss, simply for having time to think of how to 
                    explain what she just did and why. Why would she EVER do something 
                    like that with a client? She would not do it to a male… why 
                    a female? Celes thought a mile a minute to try to explain 
                    herself. To comfort Yona. Yes, that is it. If Celes did not 
                    genuinely care outside the bills, she could not just kiss 
                    Yona. Only someone who CARED would kiss them to comfort them 
                    and quiet their crying.  That 
                    is what she would say, but before she could pull away to say 
                    it… Yona threw her arms around Celes!  
                    Celes mmmmed softly into the embrace, unable to take 
                    her lips away now… and wanting to take them away even less. 
                    Yona kissed back firmly. Celes was thankful as she put her 
                    arms around Yona too. This would save a LOT on explaining, 
                    if Yona wanted it too. Celes was no longer thinking about 
                    how to explain it. She was no longer even thinking about the 
                    problem. How long had it been since she last expressed herself 
                    like this? Too long. She pressed Yona back a little and she 
                    laid into the couch, her breathing speeding up, becoming more 
                    shallow, as her paws wandered slowly up and down Celes' back 
                    and shoulders. Celes pulled away finally… to catch her breath. 
                    Yona laid on her back on the couch, her breasts slowly rising 
                    and falling, still shining with wetness from the rain.  Her nipples were tight, wrinkled and hard, 
                    pink islands on a sea of velvet black, begging to be touched. 
                    Celes stopped her hand with great effort from moving and looked 
                    at Yona. Yona looked back, her eyes half shut, looking rather 
                    lusty. Celes said, in a soft, feathery and shaky tone.
                        "N… now do you trust m… me? Only someone 
                    who genuinely cares can go that far to… to comfort someone." 
                    She found herself blushing. If this got out, she would be 
                    in a lot of hot water. She still felt the heat of her arousal 
                    throbbing deep inside with her heartbeat. Yona arched her 
                    back, her breasts hefted up slightly, as her tail coiled around 
                    Celes' waist. She shook her head.
                        "Is… Is trust you… but… is want for 
                    be held more… is be scared. Is just want for be held longer 
                    like this… is feel… nice," she said, a slight blush over 
                    her muzzle. Celes felt herself become heavy and her body fell 
                    back against Yona's. She could not help it. Their lips met 
                    again and Celes ended up on all fours over the wet skunk on 
                    the couch, her blouse getting soaked as her front pressed 
                    to Yona. Yona slid her paws under the back of Celes' shirt 
                    and began to toy with the clasp of her bra. Celes gasped softly 
                    as she felt herself immediately become wet at the feeling 
                    of those jittery, cold, inexperienced paws working the clasp. 
                    It released, making her breasts feel less pressured.  
                    Celes coooed very slightly, unable to believe this 
                    was happening, but finding herself unable to turn back. She 
                    could not afford to upset the mephit now. She already had 
                    grounds to file charges against her. So Celes would see this 
                    through to the end… whatever that may be.  
                    She finally let one of her hands find Yona's chest, 
                    her hand squeezing a heavy breast tentatively.  
                    The spotted skunkette released a shuddering sigh as 
                    Yona managed to do the same thing, squeezing one of Celes' 
                    more modest breasts. Yona's pert, pink nipple pinched between 
                    Celes' fingers as the detective skunk lowered her muzzle, 
                    and took the opposite nub into her searing hot muzzle. Her 
                    heart raced faster and faster. It was like a dream from which 
                    she would never wake. She felt the slow rolling of Yona's 
                    passionate feminine paw on her breast. So good… no male ever 
                    made her feel like that. Yona knew where to touch. Had she 
                    done this before? Celes gasped again through her nose as she 
                    suckled the tingling teat of her client… as she felt her skirt 
                    unclasp. An eager, strong mephitine tail drew down that skirt 
                    slowly, until it was all the way off. Celes began to shake 
                    a little, with a little fear, and a lot of excitement. This 
                    skunk was going to take it all the way. Celes had perhaps 
                    had one or two thoughts about it. But never anything serious… 
                    and now…   Celes turned 
                    around slowly on the couch, still on all fours. She got up 
                    on her knees and pulled off her blouse and her vest, leaving 
                    herself with just panties.  She then lowered to her hands and knees again 
                    over Yona's body. Her head level with her hips and Yona's 
                    chest level with Celes'. Celes gasped and cried out a sharp, 
                    excited trill. Yona had brought her paw up carefully to her 
                    inner thigh, and then bushed straight up and over the cleft 
                    of her sex through her panties with her thumb, a single powerful 
                    tease to the investigating mephit. Celes lowered her head, 
                    taking in the scent of another girl's sex. She could not believe 
                    what was happening. This was beyond anything she could even 
                    dream up.  She placed 
                    a paw, cupping it, over Yona’s sex feeling the heat, reserved, 
                    still somewhat scared to just… to just… do what girls who 
                    did this did to each other.  
                    Celes' mind tore six ways from Tuesday when she felt 
                    her panties slide down and a cool, wet nose press right into 
                    her sex. Yona aggressively nuzzled at her sex, making Celes 
                    want to lurch forward to get away, it was moving to quick, 
                    but her muscles did not work right. Her brain did not work 
                    right. She went backwards, harder into that pleasuring muzzle, 
                    as she released a tormented moan. So wet.  She was already so wet. And she felt the wetness 
                    seeping from Yona. Celes placed her middle and ring finger 
                    on her sex, and spread Yona’s labia around them, slowly working 
                    them up and down, sliding in that wet, hot valley.  
                    Celes' breasts ached and she brought her now wet fingers 
                    to her nipples, feeling her nipples wet with Yona’s juices, 
                    and then cold and aching even more for touch.  Celes pressed her fingers back to Yona, rewarding 
                    her in like fashion to the pleasure she was receiving as the 
                    client pressed her nose in slow, massaging circles in Celes' 
                    sex. The detective squeezed and played with her breasts again, 
                    wanting so badly to be able to do that and pleasure the other 
                    skunk at the same time. Celes arched her back a bit and moaned 
                    LOUDLY as she felt a long, slick, satin tongue slide past 
                    her labia, deep into her tunnel. It stayed there a while, 
                    just wiggling, causing Celes' breathing to speed up three 
                    times in a few seconds, before just sliding up and down over 
                    her sex. Celes rocked her hips slowly now. There was no getting 
                    around it. She was enjoying it. Her first lesbian experience… 
                    and she might never go back.  
                    Celes lowered her head, feeling how good that tongue 
                    was. It was better than any toy Celes had used on those cold, 
                    boring lonely nights or any male that she had ever been with 
                    on the not so lonely, not so cold nights. Celes brought a 
                    wet finger to her muzzle and touched a fingertip with her 
                    tongue to see what it tasted like. If it were not too gross 
                    she would be willing to return the favor. Kind of tangy… kind 
                    of salty, Celes thought as she sucked on her finger. Not bad. 
                    Not bad at all. She could deal with that, and with that she 
                    lowered her head… and Yona moaned out LOUDLY to the touch 
                    of Celes' tongue on her sex. Celes' tongue was thicker, not 
                    as long, but it was still enough. Celes pressed her middle 
                    and index finger into Yona as she swirled her tongue over 
                    the nub that she knew, for all those nights alone, how to 
                    work with. Yona began to slowly thrust her hips. Celes moaned 
                    deeply again, the act of pleasuring this girl even more erotic, 
                    and driving her even more wild. Yona began sliding her tongue 
                    in and out, stabbing into Celes' depths with it, the two skunkettes 
                    in a perfect 69 position on the couch now, with no signs of 
                    letting up. The heat was building. Celes could feel it growing 
                    in her thighs. Faster, deeper… she wanted more. She called 
                    out softly, over Yona’s sex,
                        "Y… Yes Yona… that… that's perfect. 
                    I… I like it… oh yes… I like it… so good!" She shut her 
                    eyes tightly, holding still a moment as the skunkette’s tongue 
                    lashed her sex. After how long it had been between lovers, 
                    Celes could simply not hold back. She did not have a chance. 
                    Almost as soon as she felt it approach she was screaming with 
                    climax. Her entire body felt shocked by it and she threw her 
                    head back, eyes shut so tight that tears streamed down her 
                    face.  She could not 
                    breathe. She could not even inhale again. Celes managed to 
                    squeak out one final moan of ecstasy, before dragging in a 
                    deep breath, and just shuddering. Yona was still writhing 
                    beneath her. Unlike a guy, who just keeps going until he's 
                    done, Yona still needed help. Celes snapped back into reality, 
                    and in a fuzzy haze of approaching afterglow, she began pumping 
                    her fingers in and out of the panting mephit, who brought 
                    her muzzle away from Celes' soaking pussy, her burning clit 
                    now left alone. Celes lowered her head again and eagerly lashed 
                    her tongue on that little solid nub, teasing it with her tongue 
                    tip rapidly, slitting back and forth, as her fingers slipped 
                    faster and faster, in and out of Yona’s body. The wet sounds 
                    of sex rang loud in the normally quiet office. Overhead, the 
                    ceiling fan still spun, the office unchanged except for the 
                    two going at it on the couch. Yona began to pant heavily, 
                    holding Celes' hips, and squeaking with need as the other 
                    skunk picked up speed again. Celes was panting too, from the 
                    efforts of pumping her long, well-used fingers in and out 
                    of Yona’s tight, steamy depths.  Finally, Yona cried out,
                        "Oh… Oh… Is gonna… is going for cum!!" 
                    she squealed, her body lurching against the powerful strokes 
                    in and out of her body. Celes felt her own body lush with 
                    heat, her desire well known to her, now to make Yona cum.  
                    To give her what she just got. Yona threw back her 
                    head, her muzzle still directed at Celes' sex, and she released 
                    a high pitched, powerful *YEWL!* and wetness surged from the 
                    skunk as she convulsed, nearly throwing herself and Celes 
                    onto the floor.  The 
                    detective skunk managed to keep her and her client on the 
                    couch, until she calmed down, panting heavily, her head resting 
                    on the throw pillow, her cheeks still soaked and glistening, 
                    while the rest of her body is just moist. Celes slowly sits 
                    up, still shaking a bit from that wild, first time experience. 
                    She looks to Yona, and asks softly, as the skunkette lays 
                    on her back, legs spread, still panting,
                        "Well… Whew… That was… a lot of fun. 
                    I am sure… you are a bit more relaxed now. Perhaps we can 
                    talk about your secret? And find a solution for you?" 
                    Celes asked, handing Yona a tissue or two to dry her face. 
                    Yona sat up slowly, and wriggled a bit until she was off the 
                    couch.  The client 
                    skunk slowly got to her feet and picked up her robe.  
                    She carefully slid it back on, even though it was still 
                    very wet. Celes looked at Yona curiously.  
                    "What… are you doing?" she asked. Yona walked 
                    to the door, smiling warmly.  Smugly.
                        "Yona's mission… was to get the last 
                    item on the teams scavenger hunt list. The list said we had 
                    to get something that was one of kind from down town, but 
                    we is no can have anything for show for it. So we is think… 
                    what is we can get that we would still have nothing when we 
                    is take from down town… and Yona is just figured it out. Yona 
                    is have nothing for show for it… but is took wonderful one 
                    of a kind memory from down town. Is thank you…" and with 
                    that the door swung shut. The rain no longer fell outside. 
                    The office was one again quiet and empty, except for Celes. 
                    Who slowly got dressed and staggered to her office chair. 
                    She picked up her case log and detailed the account. The case 
                    entitled "In Black and White” The crime? What crime… 
                    yes… the theft of Celes' heart. On the coat rack a worn, wet, 
                    pitiful sun hat still hung.
                  
                    
                     
                    
                    
                  - 
                    Fin
