Oh, one more thing...
Kyle stood outside the red patten leather door of the new exotic dance club Babylon. It would be fair to describe his disposition as warm and fuzzy - but then strip joints always did that to him. He was there, ironically, to do a job - a job he was more than happy to do.
The sun was setting behind him as he nodded to the doorman who gave him a curt nod. Kyle was expected, thank god, otherwise he was pretty sure the doorman would break him in two just for breathing his air. The door was held open for him and he scooted past the doorman with a smug smile. The door closed behind him, shutting out the last of the day and enclosing him in the dark, pulsating heat of the club.
Alcohol. Lots and lots of alcohol. With a deep breath, Kyle closed his eyes and mentally tried to taste the alcohol lingering in the air. Surprisingly enough, the bar was not filled with smoke, more than likely adhering to the city no smoking policy in all businesses. He was thankful that he would not smell like an ashtray when he departed.
Kyle stepped down into the center pit and weaved in between the tables filled with business men and women. Beautiful women strolled around the club, offering up dances and company. With a smile, Kyle exited the pit on the other side and walked into the back of the club known as Dante's Inferno or some such. There was some heaven and hell theme that Kyle could care less about, but his suspicions that the back end would be even more dirtier than the front end were correct.
Standing along the outer rim of the elevated dance platform, a mixture of latex and leather were being put to good use by two very bodacious women. So engrossed in the performance that he did not notice Mr. Do's assistant standing behind him until she tapped on his shoulder.
Her name was Miss Rockefeller. No relations her bio had mentioned. The paper had done an extensive inquiry into the proprietor of Babylon and his staff and not surprisingly, Mr. Do seemed to be rather elusive. Miss Rockefeller was the club's point of contact and standing at six feet tall, most of that legs, Kyle was happy Mr. Do was detained.
'Miss Rockefeller?' Please, god, Kyle thought.
And waited.
And waited.
'Well...what the fuck?'
Kyle turned over and looked behind him. Then he blinked...and looked again. Kyle propped his arm up on a bent knee and looked at his would be killer lay back and suddenly sit up again. He almost said out loud, 'dude we doing this or what' when suddenly he saw the reason for the odd interruption.
Finally Kyle threw up his dinner. He wasn't sure if it was the gurgling noise or seeing the killer be literally torn in half, but his guess it was the person who was doing it to him. Kyle began to back up, away from the splattering of blood and his vomit, trying to look away but finding he couldn't as the gurgling finally began to taper off.
'No...no please.' Kyle got up on his knees and tried to stand when suddenly it was behind him. 'God please...DO YOU EVEN REALIZE WHAT KIND OF NIGHT I'M HAVING HERE?' He managed to yell out as the second killer turned him around.
'You're suppose to be DEAD. Jesus Christ, what does a person have to do to have a normal friggin life in this town?!!'
There she was, in all her glory...Ellis Duban.
But noooooo.
Here she was with an ungrateful reporter, a dead stripper and a killer - potentially the serial killer that had killed the previous stripper. Seriously, who was so stupid as to kill in the same place twice? So untalented.
'Well for fuck sakes, Evans...most people say -Thank You- when someone saves them from being fucking stabbed to death.' She gave him a rather sad pout, her mouth covered in deep red blood.
'Honestly, you have hurt my feelings, sir.'
'Oh REALLY? THANK YOU FOR EATING MY ALMOST KILLER.'
Kyle was never one to overlook the appropriate amount of sincerity but he just wasn't feeling it right then. He tried to separate himself from the bloody vampire that he could've sworn was left to die in a huge inferno but apparently lived. He wondered if Nova and her friends knew of her reappearance into society.
'So, what's a vampire do after being resurrected? On tour? Ouch!'
The sirens began to wail in the distance and Ellis smiled at Kyle. 'Just say thank you, is that going to kill you? Just to say thank you?'
'You know, I'm amazed every day as to what -doesn't- kill me.' He heard the sirens just then and sighed with relief until he realized Ellis predicament.
'How are you going to explain all this to the cops?'
'You should think of something quick, huh.'
Kyle watched as Ellis walked away, seemingly floating up to the one of the third story windows of the next building over, climbing quickly and quietly as the voices of police men started to vibrate down the walls.
'You're leaving me here with this?' Just then a flashlight was stuck in his face and he was wrestled to the ground by 2 very burly policemen. He struggled to look up to see if he could still see Ellis and he was rewarded with a wave and the tail end of her black hair disappearing up to the roof top.
'NOW - THAT AINT RIGHT! OW! I WANT MY LAWYER!
