I AM STILL UNUSED TO my vampire speed but I try my best to keep up with Finn, Dean, and Sebastian. I see that bitchy Barista-witch standing next to Randal with her arms raised in anger, like she has some sort of fucking power over us. Well, I guess she does as we are stuck in here and she has poor Randal stuck in a trance. How am I ever going to listen to this wonderful song again after this?
We can dance, we can dance we're doing it wall to wall
We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands
We can dance, we can dance everybody's takin' the chance
Fucking witch bitch, ruining safety dance for me.
SLAM!
My body bounces to the floor as I slam into a hard structure. A hard structure in all black, wearing sunglasses inside, and with his arms crossed over his chest.
“Reg!” I yell, excited to see our friend and bouncer. “Where the hell have you been? We need your help! Help us get that witch up there!”
“Dance.” Reg replies, still staring down at me with his arms crossed. He looks daunting and bored.
“What?” I ask, pulling myself up since Reg doesn’t seem inclined to help me. “Reg, what are you doing?”
Reg removes his sunglasses and stares at me with unseeing eyes. “We can dance if we want to, we've got all your life and mine. As long as we abuse it, never gonna lose it. Everything'll work out right.”
Sebastian is by my side in a second, realizing that I had fallen behind. “Reg?” He pauses, snapping his fingers in front of our friend’s face. “Fuck! She’s taken Reg and Randal.” Sebastian grabs my hand and pulls me away from Reg just as he begins reaching for me.
“Another for my harem!” Aquamarine screeches, still standing on the DJ booth like she is some kind of orchestrator, leading her band of Safety Dancers. Okay, maybe that is exactly what she is.
As I look up at our Safety Dance leading witch I see something green out of the corner of my eye, and the sight surprises me so much I fall back to the ground. Sebastian stops, quirking his eyebrow at me. “What is wrong Rosalie?” He asks, looking at me in question.
Fear spikes through my body as my eyes connect with a dragon flying in the air. “It’s a dra-dr-draaaaaaagon!” I yell pointing up at a freaking dragon flying in the air. A freaking dragon in Vee!
Aquamarine screeches at the dragon in anger and I sigh in relief, as I realize the dragon is on our side. Holy fucking shit a dragon. Sebastian ducks, covering my form on the ground, as the dragon’s tail sweeps through the crowd, knocking some of the drunken Safety Dancers over. The fallen Safety Dancers give space for Bob to ride Ford through the group, heading straight towards Aquamarine while Saph riding Wim comes from the other side. Damn, Bob looks kind of valiant. He sure is taking to all this magic shit faster than I am. I mean there is a fucking dragon in the air!
Finn and Dean rush over to stand near Sebastian and I, helping us both off the floor. “Who the fuck is the dragon?” Finn asks, eyeing the dragon warily. “It’s going to take the fucking place down.”
“It’s Amber!” Saph yells, jumping off Wim and sliding towards us with ease. “As much as I hate to say it, we have to stop the Safety Dance. She seems to be gaining power from it—my dance moves too—” she robots for a moment. “But Julian isn’t having much luck with the door, so we have to cut off her source of power.”
“How are we going to get up there and change the song with Reg and Randal standing guard over the witch? They cannot be harmed.” Dean growls just as the dragon draws closer to the group at the DJ booth. Amber the Dragon’s talons grab Randal and Reg, separating them from the witch.
She flies towards the bar area, shifting back to her human self on the way down. All three of them fall to the ground. Dean, Finn, Sebastian, and I rush towards Reg and Randal as Bob riding Ford catches Amber out of the air.
I grab Randal and push him into the room where I had left Ginger the human I fed on before the party. That felt like an eternity ago. Dean, Finn, and Sebastian wrangle a struggling Reg and push him into the room with Randal and Ginger, barring the door shut. “That isn’t going to hold them long.” Finn says, his back against the door.
“That was awesome Amber!” Bob yells over the loudness of the crowd as he lets Amber off Ford’s back. Wes is there in a second, crushing her against his muscular frame.
“You are amazing, Ambear.” Wes says, kissing the top of her head.
“I was, wasn’t I?” Amber replies with her head held high.
“Your attempts to defeat me are futile! Give me my harem or you all will pay!” Aquamarine screams, pointing at us.
Julian and Chase rush over to join us. “Sorry you guys, I can’t get the doors open. Should I just give her a harem? I can try the spell again on some kind of drink. Maybe it’ll actually work.”
“No! She doesn’t deserve a harem,” I shout. “We have to stop her.”
