Chapter 1: Club 30

September 19, 2007, 8:47 pm 

Manhattan, New York

It was a bustling night in Manhattan, people taking in the busy nightlife of the grand city and the scene was lively. Regina rummaged through her closet to find the perfect outfit for tonight, she was going to some underground club with her best friend Felicia, she never understood why Felicia admired these underground clubs, personally, she was never really a club person either, it was either that or another boring night home.

After rummaging through her multiple racks of clothing, Regina stopped and grabbed her all-time favorite dress, a knee-length champagne-colored mixed with the royal blue two-toned dress. She slipped into the dress and adorned herself with gold bangles. Regina then swooped her shoulder-length braids over her right shoulder and grabbed a small black purse as she heard Felicia's car pull up outside. Suddenly the phone began to ring, Regina slipped on her heels and answered the phone.

"Hello," Regina spoke.

"Hey, you dressed?" 

"Yeah, I'm coming downstairs now," Regina replied.

"Alright, we've got a big night ahead of us." Felicia replied as she hung up.

"Regina grabbed her purse and coat and left her apartment, she later joined Felicia in her car.

Traveling to some new underground club was nothing new, Felicia always adored the thriving nightlife and the glitz behind it, she even enjoyed the dangerous parts of it. Regina didn't like to tango with the stuck-in-the -1920's mobsters that polluted the nightclubs, every club they went to they always ran into one or the entire gang. She could still remember that frenzy of a night when Felicia got into a scuffle with her ex-boyfriend who belonged to the Bianchi Mafia family, she could still see the scar on Felicia's right arm from where Sam sliced her. Unintentionally, Sam was killed by his hands when he shot himself trying to aim at Felicia during her escape with Regina, he was nothing more but a clumsy gangster to the mafia who didn't receive any flowers at his funeral, which was just a polite toss in the river.
