“Are we all clear on the plan?” Xelia asked as the five of us stood outside waiting to make a move on the club.

“We should all be ready. Lexa, Britta, are you sure you’re up for the challenge of going in alone?” Blake asked.

“They’ll be fine, I know Lexa’s power and I have trust in her,” Charlie said, backing me up.

“We’ll be fine, Blake, but thank you for your concern. We have each other’s backs,” Britta said, nudging me and smiling.

“We can be gooey and dramatic afterwards. For now, we need to get into position. Charlie and I are going to get in close before taking out the guards. Blake, we need you to patrol the entrance to this alleyway in case anybody tries to get in. That could be people, trucks, shipments, anything. Just make sure nobody, especially any mortals, comes down here,” Xelia said, pulling on black leather gloves.

“Got it,” he said.

“Let’s go,” Xelia said, a small smile on her face.

Britta and I hid within sight of the alleyway, behind a dumpster with cracked and faded green paint, as Charlie shifted into his jaguar form and prowled closer and closer to the back door to the club. There were two large men, but neither of them looked like they possessed much of anything in terms of intelligence. I noticed Xelia bouncing between the shadows. The men in the back didn’t look vampiric, which was going to be a plus for her.

They were talking, their deep voices echoing down the alleyway, until they went silent. Charlie was on top of one of them, his massive paw on the back of the man’s head, his drool escaping and pooling on the concrete, while Xelia had the other in a sleeper hold before letting him drop to the ground.

“Are they dead?” I asked when Britta and I walked up.

“No, just knocked out. Here’s his key card. You might need it,” she said, ripping it off the man’s jacket and handing it to me.

“Ready?” I asked, looking at Britta.

“As ready as I can be,” she replied, before raising the tip of her wand to her nose. I swiped the card, the little red light turning green, and we cracked open the door just enough for us to slip inside.

“Obscurio,” we both incanted, and a shroud of invisibility appeared and hovered around us. We could see one another, a bonus to the spell, but nobody else could see us. A bright fluorescent light flickered above us, a small puddle of water in the cold hallway rippling as we walked through it even though nobody was in sight to cause it.

I turned the corner first, seeing a man sitting on a metal folding chair right in front of me. I panicked at first, but stayed calm, shuffling past him with concentrated footsteps so as not to kick anything or make any noise to alert him. He didn’t notice us, his face buried in an adult magazine, so we continued on.
