Club Xibalba

[Feng]

"Oh, that will be easy" giggles Ana. "My sisters and I know the owner. We're practically family! Come on~!"

Grabbing Elliot by the hand she ushers him towards the entrance.

"I'll be heading downstairs, Bones-Sama! I'm taking my new friend with me."

"Eh? Oh sure, sure" says Bones, distracted by Raleigh's cocktail to pay much attention as he presses the button beneath the counter. "Have fun you two."

"We will! Come Elly-San!" says the girl, thrusting Elliot through and down a long flight of stone steps....

[Harri-chan]

Elliot let her take his hand with a grin, and he even waved to Bones as he was pushed through the open entrance, almost tumbling down the stone steps in his eagerness. "Hey... what does that name mean? San?", he asked, twisting to look back at her as he made his way down the steps. "I don't think I've ever been called that one before".

[Raleigh]

*Drinks his cocktail dismissing the components.* San in that context has no proper relation in English but would amount to something akin to Mister if you need a reference.

And that is one of the key tricks to why my blood is acidic. I just consume massive amounts of acids and then analyze them. From there I create an even stronger and faster acting acid and circulate it through my body as blood. It used to only steal life from whatever it landed on but I decided to alter its nature. I'm working on making it acidic and poisonous currently.

As Zapana gazes out at the crowd she'll notice that most of them are watching her with interest, nodding along with the music. From the back she can she Bones giving her a thumbs up!

*A smile cracks Zapana's face as she goes on. Without missing a beat, she returns the thumbs up with one of her own.

All good things come to an end eventually, and so the song wraps itself up not long after. Holding the microphone loosely in one hand, she gives the audience a formal bow.*

[Raleigh]

Well done Zaps.

[Blaze]

The foxgirl politely applauds Zapana's performance, a small smile on her face.

"That was very good."

[Feng]

The foxgirl and wizard are not the only ones clapping. Most of the bar patrons are applauding the wolf girl. In the back Bones lets out a loud whistle.

"Awesome job, Miss Zapana!" he says giving her an ovation. "Bravo! Bravo!"


At the bottom of the long flight of stairs, Elliot finds himself in front of a thick metal door. Carved across the front in red cursive are the words Pandora's Box. Ana walks up to the portal and gives it a firm rap...

[AmbushCat]

*Zapana waves to everyone, pausing to acknowledge Bones' whistle with a happy grin, then sets the microphone down and returns to her seat.*

I've missed that. So much.

[Blaze]

The foxgirl continues to sip her orange juice and looks up at the karaoke stage.

"Maybe... I should have a go..."

[Ookalf]

*Lilly enters the club, taking a moment to look over the patrons as she comes in.* Ah, it's been a while since I've been to a place like this...

[Harri-chan]

"Nice name", he grinned, waving a finger across the engraving on the door. He watched her rap her fingers on it, and then went back to admiring her bottom. "Did I mention how much I like your dress? Very sexy. You know... I've had to wear dresses for jobs before... kind of embarrassing".

[Raleigh]

He does know he is walking into a trap right? I mean it couldn't be more obvious if it had a neon sign that said as much.

[AmbushCat]

If it turns out to be a trap in more ways than one, I'm just going to laugh.

[Feng]

"There's nobody scheduled for the next half hour so you are free to go. No pressure though."

He turns to Lilly.

"Welcome to Club Xibalba, the Place of Fear. What brings you hear tonight Miss Succubus?"
She'll find that the patrons are all dressed in black, similar to what she's wearing. Coincidence perhaps?


Ana gives Elliot an awkward stare.

"Umm.... OK?" o.o

The awkward moment is interrupted by the door opening revealing a dark chamber dimly lit by greenish neon lights. Inside Elliot can make out shadowy shapes moving about, speaking in whispers. And is that Jazz music he hears?


"Wait... Was that Elliot who Ana was dragging downstairs? Oh dear. This will end poorly for him I'm afraid..."

[Harri-chan]

Elliot stares back at her through the awkward silence before mumbling. "I don't get to talk with girls much...". He was quite relieved to see the door opening, and stepped through, "Woah, are the lights broken down here or something?", he asked, squinting as he shuffled along. "And we definitely need to change up that music...".
