Chapter Text
You wake up.
Looking around you find yourself in your hotel room. Or well at least you thought it was..? Then a question appears in your head. 'Gee- What did I do yesterday? Eclipse must have brought me back huh? He probably won't tell me if he did though..guess I'll just have to talk to Lucy.' you think to yourself.
You get out of bed and look in a mirror that you had got. You were in your same clothes from last night. And you for sure had a number on your brooch. Your brooches came in two other colors, last night you had the navy blue on. Something special about them was the counter in the middle of them. You look at it and see in the middle of the brooch's flower, was a five on the counter. Guess, you had a lot to drink yesterday.
Letting out a heavy sigh and check your pocket watch…which was in your po- ‘SHOOT- It’s not in there’ This causing you to panic just a bit and check your outfit. A small note was in your back pocket.
It was a note from Eclipse apologizing for taking your pocket watch and some of your bullets. WAIT- Looking in your mirror, you see that your bullet earrings are completely unharmed.
“Great, now I have to talk to Lucy and get my pocket watch back…..along with some accessories.” you say out loud as you change your brooch to the black, burgundy, and orange one. Grabbing a dagger off your counter you walk out your hotel room.
“Hello, pretty thing.” you hear a voice nearly purr out to you. “Hello, dead Sun man- Remember you still owe me~” you say sing songly as you play a bit with your dagger. The voice that was behind you holds you by your shoulders stopping in place. “Oh really~ If anything YOU owe me.” the voice, was Eclipse. Of course it was Eclipse, who were you kidding.
You tut at Eclipse and show the pocket watch in your other hand. “Stealing my pocket watch…how foul of you.” you say as you put your dagger in your dagger holder. Eclipse’s second hands hold your waist as he grabs your face. It looks like he was getting angrier by the second. “I could just break your ne-” Eclipse starts before you cut him off. “Oh~ But you don’t…I know too much huh. There are reasons more than my mouth that you keep me alive.” you say with a small grin as you slip out of his hands easily.
Still walking to the bar Eclipse eventually gets off your back with a small scoff or something like that. It didn’t really matter to you what he did. “Heyyy!!” a feminine voice calls out to you with a clink of a bottle. “Oh hey, Lucy!” you say a bit cheerfully to Lucy as you sit down in a small chair in front of the bar.
“Soooo- How are ya? Last night- Man, you were so drunk. I seriously don’t know how I allow this.” Lucy says as she ironically hands you a drink. “Not like you’re too much of a help.” you say with a small grin. “Did you know that you now go by the name “The Big Waster”?” Lucy tells you as she goes back to cleaning a glass.
In shock you spit out your drink a bit. “THE WHAT NOW- WHO ALLOWED SUCH A NAME-” you say in a yell out loud as you stare at Lucy with the most disgusted expression. “That is just straight down offending. I don’t go around to the other gamblers and auctioneers and drunks, and say…”Hey You Useless Being Who Wastes Their Money on Literally Everything! How are you?”” you say sarcastically as you put your hand on your head. “Well I mean..it does kind of…fit you?” Lucy says in a near mumble but you heard her perfectly. “You’re so grateful I don’t have something against you.” you mutter out as you drink some of the drink.
“Yeah, I am.” Lucy says with a nervous smile as she takes your glass to refill it. “What else did I do last night?” you say with a sigh. “Well you spent $100+ on some casino game? Played Poker with Eclipse and won…did some buying at the auctions? I lost track.” Lucy says as she slides back the drink, you catching it perfectly.
“Wonderful. Just wonderful.” you finally say until some yelling and banging of a metal hand on a table breaks the silence. Your head whipping around to see what it was. “WHAT DO YOU MEAN I CHEATED- IT’S CLEAR THAT-” Eclipse yells at whoever was in front of him as his hands are placed on the poker table making him somehow taller in front of the other person. He looked madder than ever. The person on the other end looked like a blond girl with a mask on.
“Oh really? You just can’t admit you lost. Hate to break it to you…scrap metal…but you lost.” the blond girl, who looked so familiar, tells your good ol’ buddy Eclipse. “Ow. That must hurt.” you tell Lucy as you pull out your dagger. “Don’t tell me you’re gonna do what I think you’re gonna do.” Lucy says as she stares at the dagger. “Oh I sure am!” you say as you throw the dagger in between the space between Eclipse and the blondie.
“Whoops- My hand must have slipped!” your hand has clearly not slipped, but you said that anyways. Eclipse and the lady whip their heads to look at you. You smile mischievously. “Hellooo~” you say with an even bigger smile. Eclipse frowns a bit but walks over to you after taking your dagger out of the wall. “Hello, “The Big Waster”~” he says with a smirk. “SERIOUSLY, WHO AGREED ON THAT NAME- It was probably me huh…” you say with a loud sigh as you sip your empty glass and hand it back to Lucy. “Another? Geez- Well if you get drunk again, it’s your fault.” Lucy says as she refills the drink. “Yeah, I know. I wasn’t born yesterday.” you say as you take the glass and tap your feet a bit to a tune playing in the distance.
Eclipse sits down beside you in a nearby chair. “Yes, but sometimes you act like you were, darling.” Eclipse replies as he pulls out a cigar and starts…smoking it. “How do you even smoke cigars??” you ask curiously as you drink the shot. “There is holes in my faceplate. The same thing that makes me speak. Same thing for my brothers.” Eclipse says with a shrug.
“Speaking of your brothers, don’t they have some grand deal today?” Lucy asks as she emphasizes the “grand deal” part with a gesture of her hands. Eclipse looked like he was about to speak before he was cut off by the loud speakers. A robotic voice coming over the speakers.
“Greetings, to everyone in Superstar Casino! I am Sun! And my brother and I will be hosting tonight's auction! Come to the main stage located in the center of the casino.” the voice over the speakers then repeats the same thing over in a few different languages.
An offer by the brothers of Eclipse? Now how could you pass up something like that?
