Alicia leaned on Kenzie’s shoulder as they entered the club, whispering exactly what she thought of her. Kenzie smiled and grinned at the doormen as they pranced by. Mai stayed close to the back of the pair, playing mother. Due to lack of time and ease of purchase they’d been forced to wear new jeans and tourist T-shirts, but weren’t too far removed from the norm. This nightclub at least, didn’t have a rigid dress code but cared more about patrons handing over money.

Mai laid a hand on each of her companion’s shoulders. “Stay cool, girls. Do what we came here to do and get out.”

Alicia pushed Kenzie away, playfully yet with force. The Israeli barely managed to catch herself before striking a wall.

“Oh, don’t be silly,” she cried as if she’d inhaled a bottle of red wine on the steps.

Alicia moved to push her again, faking a laugh, but Kenzie defied her inebriation and slipped deftly around Alicia’s other side. “Miss me, bitch?”

Leaning in, she hooked an arm around Alicia’s neck and squeezed. Alicia let her tongue fall out, acting the fool, but in truth finding it increasingly hard to breathe.

Mai parted them with difficulty. “Focus, kids. We’re in.”

A wall of noise abused their senses as they were allowed through a final door and into the heart of the nightclub. One enormous room, it was roughly circular with mini-dancing-stages all around the outside and a lengthy bar to the right. Glasses and bottles sparkled under bright lights all along its length, the glitz instantly attracting the newcomers.

Alicia stepped down onto the central dance floor, taking it all in. Couples and groups capered to and fro and screamed into each other’s ears to make themselves heard. A dance beat pounded from wall to wall and through the floor, thrashing its way into Alicia’s bones and dampening her senses.

She leaned back, grabbing Mai by the head and shouting into her ears. “Fuck me, I do not miss this shit!”

The Japanese woman smiled softly. “It’s different when you’re young.”

“Yeah, damn right. I was far stupider then.”

“Are you ready to do this?”

Alicia steeled herself. They knew where the guards were. They knew where the guns were. They knew where Mattheus was, and where the criminal boss that ruled this police no-go area kept his safe.

“Bring it on.”
