"This is so fancy." Esther was having a hard time containing her excitement of being in a limo. For the first time!
Orion looked unimpressed with his arms crossed while deep in thought. The fallen star who had once been an archangel had a slight frown adorning his perfect face. He was probably worried about how they were going to take Achernar down, which obviously won't be easy. With Achernar being the antagonist he is and all that, he'll be expecting them coming to surprise attack him which wouldn't be so much of a surprise after all.
Cassiopeia and Rigel looked around with their multicolored changing eyes twinkling like stars. They seemed fascinated. Their light hair was sparkling under the lights. Naos was smiling, tapping away at her phone. "Sweet ride right?" Tiaki was taking multiple selfies of himself while making duck faces. Aljanah smacked him and he dropped his phone, to which Vega caught smoothly and handed it back to Tiaki. Esther, Orion, Rigel, and Cassiopeia sat next to each other. Dschubba and Naos were sitting near them. Tiaki, Aljanah, Vega, Spica, and Scheat were sitting on the opposite side across from the rest. Just eleven stars chilling in a limo, no big deal. Esther was fidgeting with her hands and looking down at the floor because she could feel Vega's gaze on her. Orion glared at him and he winked at the fallen angel which made him roll his eyes.
"So Orion. Will you go on a date with me?" Vega teased. Orion's eyes looked like they were about to fall out if its sockets. Everyone else was trying not to laugh. "Vega don't be loco." Spica told him. "Sorry but I'm not—" Orion looked out the window. "We're all gay here. Gay means happy!" Tiaki said and started laughing at himself. "Gay." Even Aljanah was laughing. "Gayyyy." Scheat had to push his glasses up to stop them from falling because he laughed too hard. The whole limo erupted in chaotic laughter from the seven deadly sins. Esther, Rigel, and Cassiopeia were trying real hard not to laugh with them. Orion seemed bored.
"O-okay— S-stop it y-you guys. W-we're here." Dschubba patted her dress down to smooth it out and tried her best to compose herself. She was still shaking from laughing so when Dschubba spoke it was through fits of giggles that she tried holding back but couldn't. Tiaki always managed to make serious situations so unserious. It took them about twenty minutes or so to get there which wasn't too long. They all got out of the limo and stood in front of Achernar's secret hideout club which read: PARTY PARTY ALL NIGHT LONG!
"Geez. Even his club name is lame." Aljanah yawned, already looking like she was about to fall asleep. The limo drove off and Esther couldn't even see who the driver was to thank them. Tiaki paid the driver handsomely before they left with a generous amount of cash. Vega checked his phone. "It's seven now. We should be just in time." The blinking neon lights from Achernar's club illuminated through the dark. People all dressed up were going in and out of the club; drinking, chatting, dancing, laughing, taking pictures, and making out with each other. Esther just realized she's never been clubbing. Well, there's a first time for everything apparently. Her friends always tried to make her go, but she refused. Now she's going to stop evil. If she could even do anything... Esther was surrounded by stupidly attractive badass warriors who hopefully knew what they were doing. She felt so out of place.
