Across town, Bad and Dangerous managed to find the popular salsa club that BOTD would be attending. The club was moderately packed as it was relatively easy to navigate through the crowd. For the most part, everyone was partnered up and putting on their best moves to the fast-paced merengue beat blaring through the speakers.
"I can see why BOTD comes here often, this place is jumping!" Bad danced in place.
"Dangerous pointed towards the dance floor as he spotted a person in a red leather-clad suit. "I think I see him!"
On the dance floor, BOTD danced with a young woman in a white fringe dress, he twirled her about and parted as they both swayed their hips to the beat. Dangerous and Bad danced through the crowd and eventually sidled up to their brother. "Hey BOTD!" Bad called out.
As BOTD twirled, he caught sight of Bad and Dangerous trying to get his attention. He excused himself from his dance partner and walked up to the duo. "Hey guys, long time no see! Come with me!"
Dangerous and Bad followed him out of the crowd and to a nearby table. Still grooving to the music, BOTD offered his brothers some refreshments. "So what brings you to the club? I haven't seen you guys in years."
"No thanks, but we came here to tell you that Michael is in trouble, he needs you to come home." Dangerous informed.
"BOTD's smile lessened. "Come home? What's going on?"
While Dangerous was explaining their current situation, a familiar face was taking notice of the three of them. Standing in the archway of one of the back rooms stood Suzanna, BOTD's lady in red. She was accompanied by a woman in a white fringe dress and another woman in a blue dress.
"Looks like we have some company, I think we should get better acquainted." Suzanna led the charge as she strutted through the dancing patrons, with her accomplices in tow. As she strolled, she nodded her head at the DJ, who returned her nod and started to fiddle with her equipment.
"Hey guys, long time no see." Suzanna squeezed in between Bad and Dangerous and slinked behind a grinning BOTD.
She settled behind him as she wrapped her arms around him. BOTD returned his affection as he caressed her cheek. As she leaned into his touch, she fluttered her dark lashes at the two Eras. "Enjoy yourselves, my favorite song is coming up."
A familiar instrumental played over the speakers in the club, this really hyped up the crowd as multiple patrons scrambled to the dance floor. Before the two Eras could say anything, they were led to the dance floor by Suzanna's accomplices.
BOTD was in a euphoric state as he bobbed his head and snapped his fingers, his eyes fluttered as if he was daydreaming. Suzanna's crimson lips curled into a satisfied smile as she caressed his shoulders.
Suzanna watched the Eras disappear into the crowd, she leaned down and could see BOTD getting into the song. "Let's dance, my love." Suzanna whispered into his ear.
Suddenly, BOTD rose from his seat with Suzanna in tow. "With pleasure." BOTD twirls Suzanna and the two start dancing.
While in the crowd, Dangerous and Bad were caught up dancing with Suzanna's accomplices. It seemed like a good time, however, something was off with the environment of the club and the patrons. It seemed as though, everyone was in a trance. The patrons danced as if they rehearsed this song multiple times, most of the patrons were partnered with others and danced in sync as if they were competing in a ballroom competition.
No one broke stride, gaze, or rhythm as they danced. This was the same for the Eras dance partners as well. Dangerous glanced at Bad, who returned the favor as he could tell that something was not right.
