smile, crimson red coming through the darkness, illuminated by the strobe lights from within. The hoards of people dancing in their shallow innocence. Beat; pumping, grinding in the air. The melody soft and yet so fierce. In the cascading darkness the people seemed at one, joined by the music. Smoke, cigarettes being lit, the strong smell of tobacco rising through the crowd. The sound of soft paced steps could hardly be heard over the drone, stiletto heels would be heard like the cracking of a whip if not for the constant babbling of the over eccentric DJ. Looking around herself at the tumbling bodies as they swayed drunkenly. Despite the gawping faces of the ever growing crowd she was completely calm. Dead set on her task. Waiting, just waiting. Each piece of the puzzle had to fall exactly in its place; there was no room for imperfection. It had to be perfect. She tapped her foot to the rhythm of the music patiently; patience was a virtue, one of which she had perfected. A paper lay on the bar; she glanced at the headline and smiled. ÐTerror on Track Six.
She looked out of a window towards the back of the bar, swaying her hips as she did so. The weather was bleak; rain, the sky deep purple readying itself for a storm. The weather outside did not dampen the atmosphere within however, inside the club it was as if the sun was shining and all was well in the world. The people seemed so happy and yet they were so clueless as to what was going on inside many a persons head.

Everyone was in a state of calm, even the air was calm as the DJ continued to babble.
As the door open she glanced over at the figure that had entered. He had a ring on his thumb, it glinted in the light. He walked in further not quite into the crowd. He didnt dance just nodded his head to the beat, laughing at another man, who seemed to be trying to dance but failing miserably. His hair was somewhat long, tied neatly in a pony tail at the back of his head. His eyes glinted with happiness. He seemed to be playing with his fingers, like he wanted to do something but didnt know what it was. His black shirt was unbuttoned to the bottom of his chest. His chest was tanned and golden. A silver necklace hung from his neck, the dragon at the end sparkled in the lights. A slow song crept out of the speakers as the crowd took out their lighters and swayed with the music. She glanced back at him he was having trouble lighting his own lighter. Each flame flickered in unison. When he finally managed to light it all of the club lights went out so that only the flames lit the room, the crowd sang, but it didnt really sound like singing, more like yelling. The song finished. The lights came back on and the lighters were out. She looked back at the man he was walking towards the bar. He stopped at the bar talking to the bartender. He looked in her direction and she smiled. After a few seconds she stood up and walked out of the door. He followed. She knew he would.
She walked to a door and let herself in. After a few moments she heard a knock. She smiled
