Perfume

By Crystal

October 1998

Limburger tower, late one night. The building seems desert to anyone passing by but deep inside, in a strange lab, a mad man is bent over a small vial where a pink solution is boiling. If you could look under is gaze mask; you would find him smiling evilly. When the buzzer next to him rang, he stopped the flame and transferred the solution to an elegant bottle he had purchased in the morning, making sure the tip sealed it tight for he couldn’t allow this to even evaporate a bit. Sure that it was now safe, he switched the ventilator on and went outside for lunch, after placing the precious bottle in the safe.

Charley was finishing some touch up on the Stalkers ship Carbine had brought her. It had got hit a few times and she wanted it checked. Nothing was wrong with it so Charley had given it a paint job, adding in a touch of flare a biker mice insignia on the door and under the wings.

"Charley, you’re one incredible mechanic!" She said to herself.

"An artist in your own league babe." Replied a voice behind her. Startled, she turned around on the shaky ladder, lost foot and started falling. By reflex, she turned away from the latter, spined and got ready to land on her feet. Two strong arms caught her in the air and helped her to the ground.

"Falling for me babe?" Throttle asked.

"Because of you would be more like it!" She replied laughing

"That’s what happens when you leave a guy for a minute, he start running after other girls!" Carbine said behind them.

"That’s true on Mars too?" Charley asked and laugh before moving away from Throttle who, after adjusting his shades, went to Carbine and said: "Just saving ladies in distress. Jealous?" She took off his shades so she could stare at him in the eyes while her tail caught his ankles, sending him to the floor and her on him. There she kissed him and said: "Not at all muscle mouse." Then tried to get up but Throttle returned the favor in a playful and sensual fight.

"Hey you two, this isn’t the place. Go to my room instead and lock the door!" Charley said, trying real hard to look serious. She would have made it if they hadn’t look so embarrassed, blushing bright red. The doorbell rang, giving Charley a good reason to leave in a hurry, only saying between laughters: "Unless you prefer Quigley filed with Vinnie and Modo to cheer."

At the door, a Purolater delivery truck was waiting along with his driver.

"Miss Charlene Davidson?"

Trying real hard to calm down, she answered: "Sorry, it’s me. How can I help you?"

"Delivery for you. If you will sign here. Thank you. This is for you." he handed her a small box. "I would say have a nice day but it seems you already have."

"Yes, thank you, have a nice day too."

Throttle and Carbine came in, hand in hand, when the delivery guy left.

"Everything alright Charley girl?"

She looked at the card and said: "It’s from a guy that I repaired a flat a while back. He says I saved his job and is sending me a thank you gift. Oh my God! It’s a perfume bottle! And it’s full! Now that’s a guy who know woman!" Gently she unsealed it and opens the bottle. Carbine joins her, saying: "Got anyone else who needs help? At that price, I’ll do about anything."

"Good to know. Where can a mouse get one of these?" Throttle asked, smiling at them. Charley replied: "Get a job and I’ll tell you where you can BUY one!" Both woman laugh at the shivering Throttle. Charley smelled inside the bottle. "Wow! This is... exhilarating!" then placed some of it on her neck and wrist then passed it to Carbine who did the same. They laugh, slightly euphoric as they turned to Throttle. "Do you like?" Charley asked, giving him her wrist to smell. Carbine, not wanting to be left out, moved in his arms, giving him her neck to smell ""Yes, tell us muscle mouse." He smelled Charley’s wrist as he kissed the palm of her hand then kissed Carbine’s neck. The smell was intoxicating, like sweet fruit in the summer breeze, making him want to take a bight out of them. Trying to keep is cool, he said: "You ladies smell dangerously good. Charley, you smell like peaches and you babe, smell like the cherry flowers in old Dahon, remember?" She smiled and pressed her body on his, sending Throttle in heaven. Yet, he couldn’t bring himself to let go of Charley. Like in a trance, he moved her in his arms, next to Carbine and both girls smiled as they molded their bodies to his. He found he could barely talk when he whispered: "You ladies are dangerous for a poor mouse." The girls looked at each other and laugh just before kissing his cheeks. He turned to Carbine and kissed her passionately while Charley kissed his neck, a hand in chest’s fur. Carbine, who’s hand was also exploring his chest, found Charley’s hand and went up to her arm, carressingly while her other hand grabbed Charley’s other hand, lacing their fingers together until they both grabbed joyfully his butt. His surprised yell soon turned to a desperate moan as the fire they were lighting ran thru his veins. He soon found himself returning the favor without even thinking about it. Charley, who was now kissing his ear, moaned and went for his lips, still busy with Carbine. Unconsciously, they started kissing together, one mouth to another until Carbine staryed with Charley, holding her tighter. Pushing and pulling each others, they moved to the living room. Cloths soon fell to the floor, soon followed by Throttle that the girls pushed gently down. Hands caressing everywhere and mouths hungrily following was all that could be done. Soon Throttle found himself kissing Charley’s lower lips as both women were sharing his manhood. In the myst of this strangeness, Throttle barely heard two bikes coming in.

Vinnie and Modo came in after the football match, hungry.

"Honey, I’m hoooome! Hey! Where is everybody?"

"Don’t know bro. But looks like Charley got an admirer. Look at that!" Modo said and pointed at the perfume bottle. Vinnie picked up the card and read it; relieved to see it wasn’t a new boyfriend then smelled the bottle after Modo.

"Smells nice, the guy most really like his job!"

"What’s that noise?" They slowly move to the living room and see the tangled body on the floor. Vinnie Can feel his hormones rush to his head as he saw his bro touching Charley. He’s about to move in and punch him when Charley gets up, beautiful in all her glory, and walks to him and kiss him. Modo is surprised to find himself unable to leave, his strength leaving him. Charley took both their hands and led them to the sofa, sat down and pulled them to her. Vinnie kept kissing her while Modo fell on her breast and started to kiss them. Throttle turned Carbine around and finally got inside her, taking his time, caring about nobody and nothing. Charley was craving for more attention and grabbed their manhood in their pants, gently stroking them then unbuttoned Vinnie’s pants who hurry to take them off. (Manque quelque chose) Vinnie lay down on the floor next to Carbine and pulled Charley on him, impaling her while she took Modo’s pants off. As soon as Modo is naked, Vinnie turns her on her hands and knees next to Carbine and fallow his bro’s example so the ladies can keep playing with Modo’s hard on. It takes a while but exhaustion soon take over their body and the lay down on the floor, both woman between the guys and falls asleep.

The sun was setting when Vinnie first woke up. He took Charley in his arms and took her to the shower. She smiled at him while she held on to his neck. The warm water ran over their tired body as his kissed her neck and back, lathering her body with his hands playfully at first then slowly, unsure. His mind slowly moved out of the mist and he looked at Charley with shame.

"Charley? Charley, are you alright?"

"Yes, yes, I think so. I still feel weird but it’s better."

"Oh, Charley, I’m sorry. I don’t know what came over me...."

"Hush Vinnie. I remember everything and it’s me who went to you. I remember I was happy and quite willing. Vinnie. Vinnie, look at me. I’m not mad at you, I wanted you."

"And Modo? And Throttle?" There was pain in his voice.

"I don’t know... It felt like... being possessed. You don’t want to but you have to."

"I felt like that too. Like I had no will to resist. Weird, I was OK when I got here. We were looking at the bottle when we..."

"The bottle? The perfume bottle? Did you touch it? Did you smell it?"

"Yeah. I opened it and we both smelled inside. Why?"

"That’s when things started to happen to us too, when I opened that bottle! It must be a trap from Limburger!"

"Why that? Why not a knockout gas? Or a poison?"

"He kept us ...occupied and would have done so for a while if you hadn’t brought us here and by then it would have gotten between all of us, killing our friendship, like the hate ray!"

"When I get my hands on that no good, smelly stink face, I’m gonna kill him!"

"Right now, we’ve got to get it under control. Did you close the bottle?"

"I don’t know."

"Too bad. Can you hold your breath long enough to get to your bike?"

"Sure but I’ll need my cloths to ride."

"No, we just need your helmet. On space mode, the smell won’t get to you! You can then have the others put their’s too, they shouldn’t resist you. Once that is done, bring Carbine here, I’ll wash it off and you guys can ventilate this place. Oh, and put the bottle in the fridge so we’ll be sure it’s sealed until we find a way to get ride of it."

"You got it!" He breathes deeply a few times then ran off, soon to return with Carbine over his shoulder. Charley couldn’t help but laugh when she noticed Carbine’s tail around his manhood and Vinnie’s bright red face! As soon as he got her down, he ran away from the temptation.

15 minutes later, the five of them were back in the living room, silent Vinnie had repeated to his bros what Charley had told him when they had opened every door and widow. They had first been mad then ashamed of being so easily trapped then gilt ran over them as they remembered how badly they had behaved. Throttle remembered biting Charley several times, leaving a few marks on her silky skin. He also remembered all the time he had told Vinnie he couldn’t have Charley, that they didn’t know what harm it could do to her. "Poor Vinnie, he must really hate me now, hitting on his girl. Man, Limburger got us good this time. What are we going to do?" He thought. Modo felt like shooting himself. Not only had he jumped on two very decent ladies who also happened to be his friends, but he had sex with his bros girlfriends!

"Guys? Stop beating yourself ok? That’s what Limburger wants." Charley said as she looked on their faces. Modo couldn’t take it anymore and ran off to his bike. Charley yelled: "Modo, wait! Bikes, don’t let him get away!" She turned to the others "I’ll be right back." Then ran off after him.

Carbine looked at the other two mice. "She’s right you know. If we don’t clear this out, Limburger wins the jackpot."

"Thanks babe. Vincent, I’m sorry it ever happened. You know I wouldn’t do anything to hurt you, especially not hit on the girl you love! If it can make you feel any better, I didn’t go all the way with her."

"You didn’t?"

"No. I ... had my hands full. Lots of foreplay but you were the only one who got her."

"Thanks bro. I just hope everything will be all right. I wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to her."

"Anything bad? What do you mean?" Carbine asked.

"I told Vinnie that I didn’t know if our races were... compatible. Who knows what it could do?" Throttle answered lowering his head like Vinnie.

"They’re compatible all right! Don’t ask how, it’s top secret, just know that it’s been done before."

"By whom?

"The Plutarkians. Vinnie, sorry it got to you this way."

"No sweat sweetheart. In a way you just returned the favor to my bro for me. And in such a sweet way!" Throttle turn a glare at him. "Cool it bro! She just teased me when I took her to the shower. I had my head back on." He paused then whispered "even if she is one gorgeous babe." Throttle smiled as he picked her up to sit on his lap, his arms around her waist then replied: "I kind of notice bro but I’m happy you like my choice."

"Are you thinking of sharing me with your bros too?"

Throttle tipped and kissed her passionately for a long time then asked her in a low voice:

"Do you want to?" She smiled, panting, and replied playfully: "Three guys two girls... always a spare..." then laugh as he spanked her.

The bikes, surprised by Charley’s order, had not moved when Modo had tried to leave, Little hoss had not started. Charley was soon with him.

"Modo? Modo, what’s wrong?" She turned his head and saw a tear fall from his eye. "Modo, talk to me! Please!"

"I can’t! I can’t even think about it! I’m so ashamed!" he replied before sobbing on his handle bar.

"Oh, Modo. I should have known. You always were the gentleman of the guys; I shouldn’t be surprised you’re the most hurt. Modo, try to remember. I led you to the sofa, you didn’t attack me, we ... invited you in."

"But you’re my bro’s girl! Of all the girls in the universe, you and Carbine were the ones that I should never, never have touched! Not after..."

"Not after what? Or who?"

"I had a girl on Mars. 3 months before the wedding date I found out that she was sleeping with a rat I thought was my friend. Her parents wouldn’t let her marry him so she thought was dumb enough for her to marry and still see him."

"She sneaked out on you. This is different; we were all together, sharing. She made a choice, you didn’t. None of us did! We all know that you wouldn’t have done that under normal circumstances and that’s what makes it okay. So, unless you can look at me and say you didn’t enjoy it you better get over it and talk to your bros.!"

"You mean it Charley ma’am? You’re okay with what happened?"

"I can’t say for the others but I don’t regret you being there. You three are always together, always sharing everything, I suppose that in a way, you belonged there. It’s not my style and I wasn’t in control but I feel ok about you being there. Imagine if it had happened in Limburger Tower!" She replied, blushing along with him then laugh. He got up and gave her one of his bear hug, kissing her hair. "Thanks Charlene. You’re too good for any mouse."

"Come on, let’s go and finish this with the others."

Vinnie saw Charley and Modo enter, still smiling and smiled back. Throttle followed his gaze and saw the wet fur. Modo went to his bros.; trying hard not to start crying again "Bros..." but Vinnie stopped him. "It’s OK bro. Really."

"We know how you feel about this kind of things. We were there remember?" Throttle added

"Beside, I don’t remember anyone pushing you away." finished Carbine.

The three guys stood up, facing each other. "Still bros.?" Throttle asked, placing his fist in the middle. "ALWAYS!" Vinnie and Modo said in one voice as they jumped up for a high five. Vinnie grabbed Charley by the waist while Throttle did the same to Carbine who looked at Charley then Modo and smiled. Together the girls moved so that Modo would be between the two of them. Charley then grabbed Carbine’s hand with a wink and they both grabbed an ass cheek, laughing as Modo blushed all the way to his ears and placed his arms around their shoulders, happy.

"I’m hungry, what’s for lunch?" Vinnie asked later, heading for the fridge.

"NO!!! Remember what’s in it?" Charley shouted as she stopped him from opening the door.

"Opps! Good call sweetheart, but I’m still hungry."

"I’ll go get my purse, you get on your bike and we’ll go get some!"

Throttle made a sign to Modo and said: "We’ll stay here and get things ready." Vinnie moved toward Throttle and said: "Thanks bro."

"Just tell her how you feel, don’t push her. Oh! And remember to bring back some food too!"

Vinnie smiled and saw Charley coming his way so he grabbed her with his tail, jumped on his bike and drove of saying:"I’ll try!"

Charley’s hands seemed to dance on his chest as they rode to the hot-dog stand near Limburger’s tower. He couldn’t help smiling at her. When he tried to take one of her hands, she slapped it and said laughing: "Keep your hands on the handles and your eyes on the road Van wham, I’d like to survive this trip!" So he had just let the tip of his tail brush under her breast and on her stomach.

She had just given her order to the guy and was heading back to Vinnie outside. She remembered how jealous he had sounded in the shower and hoped it was a sign, a sign that he was ready to talk.

"There. It should take 20 minutes."

"Good. I wanted to talk to you, alone. Today, when I held you in my arms, even if it wasn’t conscious, I was in heaven. From that night when we got to your garage and I fell to your feet, I played the fool to hide from you. I am a Martian mouse, the difference of race scared me and I didn’t want to hurt you. I was bound to go home someday and keep fighting there but when we got back to Mars, I couldn’t take my mind off you. Now... Now I know it could be. WE could be. I know that I can’t hide myself anymore. I love you Charlene, more then life itself! That night, I fell to your feet more then one way. I always knew there would be no one else in my heart. When I thought that Throttle ha got what he knew I wanted for so long, I wanted to kill him. In a way, you and that perfume saved his life." He smiled a bit then finished saying: "I accept my faith. I love you and I want to stay here by your side for as long as you will have me."

"What about when the others leave?"

"I'll be sad to see them go but I won’t leave you. Not again, not as long as I live."

"One last question..."

"What?"

"Think they need another mechanic on Mars?" She asked smiling at him. He gave her his hand and she took it. Kissing her fingers he asked: "You would do that?"

"Where would I go? You guys are my family. All I have here is my garage and my memories. Maybe if I work well, I could get the garage on Mars with me, with us. I love you too Vincent."

Wrapping his tail around her wait, he pulled her to him. All the passion that had been kept back for so long got in their kiss as they sealed their love. The sound of someone shouting:"Miss Davidson! Your order his ready!" Got them back to reality. Slowly letting go of her, he placed one last kiss on her nose and said: "Let’s get on the road or I won’t need that perfume to do something right here, right now sweetheart." Just before entering, she turned to him and said: "Promises, promises"

Throttle, Modo and carbine had been busy. When Vinnie and Charley got back to the garage, the other bikes were loaded with weapons, the table was set and Carbine was working on a container for the bottle. Seeing Charley and Vinnie hand in hand, Throttle gave Modo an elbow and whistled, making the young couple blush. Vinnie took the two bags and sent them flying to Throttle then picked Charley in his arms saying: "See you guys in a few years!" as he headed for her room.

"Vinnie! I’m hungry for food too!" Charley giggled. Putting her down in front of his bros, Vinnie said: "Guys, let me present to you the future Mrs. Van Wham." 5 red eyes stared at them for along time before Throttle could ask: "Charley, did you really say yes to him?"

"Well... he hasn’t asked yet so..."

Vinnie turned her around and kissed her passionately, his hands caressing her back and keeping her tightly against him while the tip of his tail caressed her inner thigh, making the other mice blush and laugh.

"Oh MAMA!"

"Lucky girl!" Carbine said. Throttle pulled her close and whispered in her ear: "If you want one, all you have to do is ask me."

Vinnie let go of her lips and asked: "Will you marry me?" There was a long silence as they all stared at Charley until she smiled and said: "YES!!" Cheers and congratulation flew to the young couple.

"Let's celebrate this!" Carbine offered.

"What have you got in mind beautiful?" Throttle asked

"Eat drink and whip some tail!" was her reply.

"Yeah! I want to go and thank Limburger." Vinnie laugh

"Just before we take him down!" Charley added.

"As you can see, all this gold will be more then enough to pay for my expenses. I was just on my way to personally bring it to you!" Limburger said to Camembert and the rest of the counsel thru the view screen as he pointed to two trucks loaded with gold.

"For once in your pathetic life Limburger, you have done something right. Now get this gold here PRONTO!"

"Yes, your..." the rest of his phrase is lost in an explosion behind him.

"What was that?" Camembert asked just before the biker mice came in singing Chanson the marriage. When they see all the gold, Modo whistled while Throttle said: "No wonder you wanted to keep us busy!"

"What? What are you referring to?"

Charley pulled out the bottle from its protective canister. Karbuncle, seeing it goes pale.

"This. And it looks like the doctor remembers it!" She said. Modo, Throttle, Vinnie and Carbine pushed Limburger, Karbuncle and Greasepit in the transporter and Charley sent them to the counsel then she activated it again, opened the bottle just before throwing it in. On the screen, they see the bottle appear and crash on Camembert's head as Karbuncle start to scream.

"That should pass him the idea of trying again! Now what?" Charley asked. They looked at each other’s and smiled. Ten minutes later, three bikes and two trucks come out of Limburger tower as it starts to explode.
