Prologue - Where it all Began

---

"How did I end up with her? How did I get all the luck? I guess it's was a man's need or... hell I don't know. I guess it's one of those moments you find like in a stupid romance comedy when a man does something ridiculous to get a girl's attention or be one of those Romeo & Juliet stories. Well it's not... It's more of when you go shopping, you see something that caught your eyes and it spoke to you. Well let's just say... she spoke to me alright..."

*Manhattan, New York City... *

[8:30 A.M.]

"The year was 2040 in New York City. We live in a new world order where anthros live with humans and you think this is some science experiment gone wrong? You are far from the truth, it's evolution. Anyways, I lived here before I moved away to Texa's with my family, have one step sister and one real sister by the way. I grew up and went to college for automotive mechanic engineering and passed it, of course. I couldn't pay off the rest of my college, so what did I do? I joined the military. Since I got passed boot camp,I rose up in ranks and became corporal, made of couple of friends and hit it off since then. Till one day_ I was deployed with my team into European Union to help out our allies with the Renaissance Union of Soviet Russia or the RUSR for short. We've been stationed there for a two years now. Until one day that changed my life forever, we were heading for the position to hold off till the escorts were away but something didn't feel right at the moment..." _

_"We were ambushed... By any luck we were able to hold them off until that one explosion nearly killed me but I was lucky to be alive. We barely escaped the ambush and I was lucky to still be alive after all of that. The doctors told me I was partially blind from the explosion, so they gave me specially made glasses for me to see, can't do anything without them. After that nightmare I went through, I was honorably discharged afterwards and was sent home with a purple heart. But I didn't move back in with my parents, I moved back to where I truly belong, the big apple itself. It wasn't too long till my military buddies got out and we all had interest in cars, pitched in and opened up an auto shop. _

"But that's a story for another time. For now, we focus on what brought this moment..."

It was early in the morning time at his very large High End Apartment in New York City as Rickardo was laying in his bed sleeping until his alarm begins going off and rose himself out of bed. He was 27 year old mulatto human male with a shaved hairstyle with and a goatee facial hair. He also had a fit body with a six pack, a scar underneath his eye with brown eyes.

His radio comes on as it plays Craig David - "Key to my Heart" as his morning music.

He gets up out of bed and stretches out as he walks over to the bathroom to the sink and looked himself in the mirror. He yawned and rubbed his eyes trying to get his head together as he grabbed his tooth brush, tooth paste and squirts some onto his brush and began brushing and scrubbing his teeth down, spits it out and starts washing his mouth out. He then splashes some water onto his face washing his face as the last thing he does is takes his underwear off and heads into the shower.

5 minutes later...

He finishes his shower, puts a towel on and walks back to his bedroom to find a new set of cloths. A few minutes later he comes out wearing his cubic square glasses, a white tank top, black jeans and some black and white baseline sneakers. He walks over into the kitchen next to the living room as the lights activated with motion and walked over to the fridge, takes out eggs, butter and bacon from the freezer. He then grabs a frying pan, turns on the stove and begins cooking his breakfast. A few minutes later he finishes cooking his scrambled eggs and bacon onto his plate and pours a cup of coffee and brings it to the table.

As he placed his breakfast his hand motioned the large T.V. to turn on as the first channel came on was the news channel. He always turns to the news channel in the morning as the news anchorwoman about the weather.

He checks his phone messages to see if he's has any received any messages. He spots about three coming in for interviews today around ten to eleven.

"Why do I have interviews coming in you ask? Let me put this bluntly, this apartment is not cheap and I only got this place at a half price and now they're raising my rent. Not even my job as a mechanic can support this place unless I got a pay raise that is. I needed help or I would lose my apartment."

He got up off the couch and walked outside on his balcony and looks out into the high tech city of New York with with large holographic billboards advertisements of food, restaurants, tech, cars, fashion and modeling of humans and anthros, taller futuristic skyscrapers with odd shaping but still has the old historic buildings with highways and bridges with different twists and turns with hovercraft's and flying cars going by. He begins to think about how the interviews would and hope to find a potential roommate.

He then checks his watch to see what the time was as it was 9:10 A.M. knowing he still had time before interviews start coming in. So he heads back in, picks up his breakfast, puts it all in the sink and starts cleaning the dishes for a few minutes. He then goes into the bathroom clean up in case if the attendees decide to use the bathroom. Another few minutes have passed as the bathroom was clean until he went back to his bedroom to get ready.

1 1/2 hour later...

A half-hour later passed as he was in his black suit and black tie and headed to his living room, grabbed a few papers from the people that are visiting and sets them on the table.

"Okay now. Everything is set and it's only a matter of time before they..." He spoke before the buzzer at his door rang.

He walked over to the door, checks the screen and sees his first interview. It was a human male with curled back hair while wearing ear covering headphones, a hoodie sweater, blue jeans, and black sneakers. Looked enough to be a college student... or a dropout. He sighs in hoping it would go good and opens the door.

"Hello there." He answered as he opened the door.

"Hi..." He spoke. Rickardo looked at him awkwardly hoping he would continue his greeting until the attendee remembered why he was here. "...Oh yeah. I'm here for the... open house. You said needed a roommate. I'm your guy." He chuckled and smiled.

"Uh... yes. Please come in." He answered as he stepped aside to let him.

He enters the apartment and looks around the apartment looking a little dumbfounded which made things more awkward for Rickardo as he clears his throat loudly to get his attention again. He escorted him to the couch as they both sat on different sides of the table as he placed his feet on the table rudely, making Rickardo very irritated. He noticed and took his feet off the table while Rickardo got his papers together.

"Ok, Mr. Lebrowski. Tell me a little about yourself." He asks.

"Well I was going to college like my parents wanted to but... I said nah. I'm gonna do something more than just go to college." He answered.

"And that might be?" He asks curiously while worried.

"Just gonna get a job. Hey, do you mind if I bring friends over. I have plans for a party and your kick ass apartment is perfect." He asks.

Rickardo rubs his eyes in stress until he begins getting weird smell but he wasn't sure where it was coming from until he leaned closer to Lebrowski. He smells him more until the scent was strong making him choke a little coughing and gagging. "Uh... Lebrewski? What is that smell?"

"Oh that? That is dollar bill." He answers.

"A dollar bill? The dollar currency has obsolete for years." Rickardo asks curiously and confusingly.

"No dude. Like you know. My dollar bill. I got more my man. I can hook you up." He answered as he pulled out a bag of marijuana.

Rickardo was shocked to see that and cleared his throat as he checked his watch lying about the time. "Oh, Mr. Lebrowski. Look at the time. It seems our time is up. Thank you for participating but it seems I got more coming in and I'll let you know when I've found my roommate." He says he pushes him out the door.

"Well... alright then... but hey listen. If you ever need it I got it all here..." He spoke before being interrupted by the slammed door.

"Oh god... Okay, who's next?" He thought to himself as checked on his list.

In the next few minutes the next one shows up and it was a buffed male Rottweiler posing and flexing his muscles showing off how strong he was. Rickardo probably knew he was an adrenaline junkie and was non stop talking about healthy drinks, diets and more than what he could consume.

The next hour was a female hippie Black Cat as she talked about the environment, nature and how companies waste nature with landfills and such which tired him. A few minutes later was a very strict religious human male praising to god, his deeds, why Rickardo should pray to him and more which he didn't know what was worse, the hippie girl or the religious man.

2 hours later...

It was about 3 P.M. which was almost time to end the interviews and call it a day.

"It's been hours and these interviews were absolute hell for me. Nothing but junkies, smokers, drinkers and I didn't want an unreliable roommate. I was looking for someone who would help pay rent without pulling money away from some Mafia or something like that. But it was final interview that answered my prayers..."

The buzzer rang for the last time as he walks over to the door tired and hoping this would be the last. He opens to door to find a large busty female sergal who was taller than him at his door. She was about 37 years old as she had black fur with a white underbelly with a large lime green tiger like markings around her waist to her hips. Her eye color is lime green and a snake like tongue with natural large green lips and a curly combed back long hair. She also has neon green eye eye liner with green fingernails and toe nails. She has smooth curvy body figure with natural G-Size and large rounded thick bubble butt. She had a slim belly with thick toned thighs that compliments her flared child-bearing hips She was wearing a suit with cleavage showing, a small business skirt up to her legs while carrying a purse.

"...And it was that moment. I knew I found my roommate for life..."

"Uh hello. My name is Freya Neon. I'm here for the interview about the vacancy of this apartment. Am I too late?" She asks.

He clears his throat and fixes his tie. "Of course not. My name is Rickardo Mason. Please come in." He answered as he stepped aside to let her in.

"Thank you." She answered and entered his apartment.

He watches her enter his apartment as looked her large swaying rear end swinging left and right with her large tail following while she walked over to the couch. He was shocked to see how large her butt was almost mouth watering to him.

"Wow..." He snaps out of it and walked over to the couch and sat back down. He gathered his papers together until he looked up at her and couldn't stop looking at her large thick slim legs crossed. He cleared his throat to keep himself from being distracted and got down to business. "So Freya, tell me a little about yourself." He asks.

"Well I work as a housemaid for a home cleaning service on a schedule. So when my time comes up, I go to a home and do my job." She answered.

"So you clean homes as a job? So I guess that means you like to your own home clean as well?" He asks.

"Of course. I prefer to live in a nice clean home." She answered.

"How's the payment on that?" He asks curiously.

"It's enough to keep food in stomach and keep a roof over my head for the time." She answered.

"Amen to that. Okay then. Do you smoke, drink or both? If so how often?"

"I would never dream of smoking and I only drink on occasions like partying, going out or celebrations." She answered honestly.

"Well at least I won't have to deal with a drunken fool." He thought to himself. "Okay, so do you have any relatives or siblings of a sort?" He asks.

"I have a little step sister, she lives in the city but I don't know where. Her name is Selena. She can be a shy sometimes but is more open once you get to know, trust me. She's a good person when you get to know her."

He chuckles a little. "I think I know a girl with that name but I'm sure she's great." He looked at her as they both begin to chuckle. "This interview is going great. It's much better than the lasts one I've been with." He thought to himself. "Okay now, so what do you expect from a roommate?" He asks.

"Well I don't mean to brag or anything but is someone sweet, kind, caring, understanding, compassionate, someone I can rely on... Oh sorry, I was asking for too much." She looked away blushing deeply with light green color feeling embarrassed.

Rickardo blushed a little as everything she just mentioned describes him. "It's okay. Don't worry about it. Uh... do you have any relationships with anyone I should know? And do you have any children? " He asks curiously.

"Well no... I don't have a relationship with anyone or even children, not even adopted. I've been alone for so long. I couldn't find the right person for myself, it's just... sorry again. You don't want to hear about an old ladies story like mine. It's quite sad isn't it?" She looks down at him.

"N-No, of course not. You just haven't found the right person yet. Don't short sell yourself yet, I mean all good things come to those who wait. Who knows, it could be staring at you right now. You know what I mean?" He asks.

"Yes, I do understand." She answered.

"I mean, I don't have anyone either. You think someone who lives in a large apartment like this who would have a girl or two here but... I'm just unlucky as you are. It's more sad to see a man living alone in a large apartment like this. So were both out there looking for that special someone." He answered which made her smile a little. "So final question since it's about 4 P.M. What's your reason to coming here?" He asks seriously.

"Well... it's just that I was recently evicted from my apartment. It got too expensive even for my salary and my place wasn't that big. I live in a motel inn at the moment. When I heard about your offer I thought I would have a chance." She spoke honestly.

"I can understand how hard it is to live out there. Look at me, I'm about to lose my apartment because of rent if I don't pay soon. I'll just be another homeless man on the street."

She leaned over to him and placed her semi-large hand on his shoulder knowing how it feels. He then checks his watch and it was 5 P.M. as it was ringing then looks back at her. "Well I guess our time is up huh?" She asks.

"Yeah it is. I'll call you when I choose my roommate. Thanks for coming out today." He says with him holding his hand out to her.

She smiled a little and shook his hand. "Your welcome, Mr...?"

"Rickardo. Rickardo Mason." He answers.

"It was good meeting you. Hope to see you soon, Mr. Mason." She spoke last as she picked up her purse, walked over to the door and walked out.

"That moment... I felt like I made a mistake letting her leave like this. We had so much in common and I wanted to share my life with her more... I knew what I had to do to change my life around."

It was half hour later as Freya was in her motel room with the shades closed. She was finishing up her shower as she was drying off her fur and wraps the large towel around her body. She then hears her cell phone ringing, walks over to the table, checks the Caller I.D. and it was Rickardo. She answers it.

"Hello?" She asked.

"Hey, it's me Rickardo." He answered.

"Hello Rickardo. Something you wanted to talk about?" She asks curiously and sat down on her bed.

"It's about our interview and I was thinking about what we talked about."

"And that would be?"

"It's about the room. It's still open and I think I've found my roommate."

"Yeah?" She asks.

"Yeah and I know who it is." He answered.

"Who is it?"

"Guess why I called you."

Freya begins to think about it and noticed who he was talking about, making her smile a little hoping to see him again. "So when can I come over?"

"I can pick you tonight, if you like. When will you be ready?" He asks.

"Yeah you can. In a hour. I'm at the Queen's Motel Inn on Anderson Ave. See you soon."

"Yeah, see you soon." He spoke last before hanging up.

Freya then gets up and walks over to her drawers, opens it and pulls a clean pair of pink panties. She then takes off her towel as she was completely nude and slips them on. She then grabs a pink push up bra and clips it on. She next grabs her blue shorts, slides them on with her tail slipping out and buckles it, while she grabs a T-shirt, puts it on and finally a zipper sweater. She then grabs a duffel bag and begins packing her clothes and her belongings into the bag.

Meanwhile at his apartment he was wearing his dark green jacket with black jeans and black boots and walked over to the elevator. He enters the elevator, presses the very bottom button to the garage and it takes him down to the basement garage. He arrives and walks over to his own garage, opens the door and sees his black modified custom 2005 Saleen Mustang with custom spoiler with a built in tail light. He walks over to his car, unlocks it and enters it and shuts the door. He then puts the key in and ignites his car as it starts up with a speedometer on his glasses. He then pulls out of his garage and drives out of the lot and out into the city.

He drives through the city with his arm hanging out as he passes the nightlife of the city. A few minutes later he drives into the lower part of the city where most of it is slum like area, where most of the police is and run down neighborhoods. He then comes up to a one leveled motels, spots the motel and sees Freya with her bag aside her as she spots him parking in front of him. He gets out and walks over to her as they both just stared at each other.

"Hey." He spoke first.

"Hey. She answered back.

"You checked out of the motel?"

"Yeah, I did." She smiled a little

"So... you ready to go?" He asks as he smiled a little.

"Of course, roomie." She giggled as she picked up her bag and walked over to the back.

He then opens the trunk for her as she drops her bag in and closes it. She then goes into the passenger seat as he gets into the driver seat, starts up his car, backs out of the lot and drives back into high end part of the city. A few minutes later they return to the apartment parking lot and pulls into his private garage.

"You have your own garage?" She asks curiously.

"Yes, I paid extra for it to keep my car in and my tools." He answers.

"Tools? What do you do for a living?"

"I'm a mechanic. You know maintain, fix cars. Stuff like that."

"Sounds tough and a lot of work."

"Well to you maybe but trust me, it's like a hobby to me." He smiled and chuckled.

She giggled as a reply and got out of the car, retrieved her bag, went to the elevator and head up to his apartment. Few minutes later they arrive to his floor and walked over to his apartment as he opened the door for her and she enters first.

"I didn't get the chance to look at your apartment. It looks amazing and big enough for both of us." She complimented.

"Thank you. It was a half price when I got it till they raised my damn rent..."

"Oh sorry..."

"It's alright. Come on, lets get you set up." He smiled and walked into his bedroom.

"So... where do I sleep?" She asks while looking around then looking down on the couch.

"If your thinking about the couch, you thought wrong..." He answered.

"Hm?" She asks curiously.

"...Because you're sleeping in my bed tonight." He answered as he walked out.

"W-What?!" She asks in a shocking surprise. She blushed deeply with a light green color.

"I mean I want you to sleep comfortably in my bed because your room isn't set up yet. So I'll be sleeping on the couch."

"Oh... of course you mean't that." She blushes playing it off.

Rickardo walks over to the couch then pulls a lever and folds out into a bed. "This is where I'm sleeping. You'll be sleeping in the my room until your spare room is set up.

"Oh... okay then..." She answered disappointingly.

She looked away a little disappointed hoping it would be him. She then follows him back to the bedroom and shows her the large bedroom with a queen size bed. "So how do you like it?" He asks.

"It's amazing and quite big too." She smiled and giggled.

"Well I did like my space on the bed. Well I guess I'll let you get ready for bed then. Good night, roomie." He spoke last before closing the door behind him.

"Yeah, good night..."

[10:30 P.M.]

The apartment was dark with the city lights phasing out the darkness a little as Rickardo was sleeping on the couch bed while Freya was sleeping in the bed. She slowly wakes up as it didn't feel right to her for some reason with a strange feeling in her stomach. She didn't feel like sleeping tonight on her own as she got out of bed wearing a large buttoned baseball jersey but with no bra and pantie on. She walked over to the door, opened it quietly, peeped out and spotted him sleeping soundly on the couch bed. She then quietly sneaks over to the couch and finds him shirtless showing off his muscled pecked chest also making her blush a little. She then lifts the sheet and slips under it with him as she snuggles up to him with her large hands over his lower stomach, her leg covering his and lastly her breast like a pillow as if she was his second blanket. She gave him a small peck on the cheek good night leaving a large neon green lip stick mark on his cheek and went to sleep soundly.

"And that's how it all began. Her compassion and my love is what brought us closer and this interview is where it all began... and I know that this made us roommates for life..."
