"Do you have any idea how amazing you are?"

The group of friends arrived at the nightclub just in time to see Declan, Charlotte, and a few other Panacea head honchos skip the line and head inside the MGM Grand nightclub.

"That line looks like it'll take an hour to get through." Blue remarked, watching how the queue to get in stretched all the way to almost the next street. "At least." Bryce added. "We can't wait that long." Jackie said defeatedly. "So lets find a way to get past that bouncer." Aurora pointed at the burly bouncer who stood in front of the entrance, observing the party-goers.

"Blue's our trump card today. Go do your usual charming." Aurora pushed Blue forward a little. Steeling herself, Blue sauntered up towards the bouncer and gave him a coy smile. "Heyyyy, handsome." she dragged, inwardly cringing as the rest of her friends tried to stiffle their laughter at the back.

The bouncer turned at her voice, his gaze trailing over her body in the short sequined dress. She leaned forward, lightly running a finger down the length of his forearm. "What can I do for you?" the bouncer grinned wolfishly down at her. The group of friends watched as Blue stepped forward and whispered something into the man's ear.

The bouncer's eyes widened exponentially before he pulled aside the rope, allowing Blue and her friends through. "Do I even want to know what you said to him?" Bryce asked as the group turned to Blue with astonishment. "Let's just say I used my medical training to be very specific about certain aspects of our respective anatomies..." Blue replied with a smirk making them snicker.

"Always knew you were secretly freaky." Aurora laughed, clapping Blue on the back. "Don't tell Ethan about this. I know he's been keeping tabs on me through you." Blue whispered to Sienna who laughed in response. "Only if you promise to tell me what exactly you said to the bouncer." Sienna whispered back making Blue chuckle. "Deal."

The nightclub pulsed with people and music, the blue neon lights flickering ever so often, against the otherwise dark club. "This place actually has a great vibe." Bryce commented, looking around the place. "That's not why we're here...where's Charlotte?" Sienna asked. "Over there!" Elijah pointed out over the crowd.

They looked across the club to see Declan and Charlotte together in the VIP section.

"I need a second to get my phone ready...Blue, come with me." Jackie said, grabbing Blue and pulling her towards the bathroom. Jackie kicked open a stall door and charged inside. Blue followed, locking the door behind her. Jackie pulled out her phone, her hands shaking as she swiped at the screen.

"I downloaded an app that filters out background noise so we can nail that bastard to the wall. I just need to set it up." Jackie told her exasperatedly, clearlpoò0y feeling anxious about the whole thing. "Here, let me help." Blue offered, taking the phone from her as Jackie leaned against the wall, body tensed. Her eyes burned with fury as she said, "We need to find something on him, Blue. I need him to suffer."

Sensing the anger and anxiety burning off her friend, Blue told her softly, "Hey, take a deep breath..." "I don't have time for that, Blue. Declan is out there right now, making deals that will someday literally kill people. He deserves to lose everything." Jackie replied, her fists curled tightly. Blue stepped back a little wide-eyed as she responded, "Whoa! Where is all this coming from? No offense, but...you're getting pretty intense right now. Why do you want this so bad?"

Jackie kicked at the wall before hanging her head. Another moment passed, and her shoulders dropped. When she looked up again to meet Blue's gaze, her dark eyes were glistening with tears.
