Out of the corner of his eye John spots a group of people milling about the door. Scott is motioning to him.
Sorry, duty calls.
Leaning over quickly John kisses Crystal on the cheek and then vanishes into the rolling crowd.

A figure merges out of the dancing crowd to join the others at the booth. Redeemer, in cargo pants, boots and a rather pink tank top, tilts her head and lets her gaze flicker from person to person as a small smile plays about her lips.
"Mr Freezies? Do I even want to ask?"

“Well it’s not like I could go home and get it after everything in Ireland. Heck, they didn’t even ID me during my interview here. Have you noticed any of the bouncers asking for identification at the door? They look for dress code, nothing else. That one over there,” Scarlet points a thumb to her side and a bit behind her without moving to look at the girl with dark brown chestnut hair with peek-a-boo purple streaks going through. “Cherry’s a regular, and she’s only 16, been coming here for a few years now to get away from her step father and addict mom. Charles over there,” she pointed to the far end of the room to a man wearing black leather pants that showed more skin then fabric. “he’s 17, fresh out of juvey for stabbing his best friend after he caught him in bed with his girlfriends, yes plural.” She continued on her little vent session pointing out several other regulars “People need a place to escape from their dark lives. That place is Z’s, it’s like a second home to a lot of the patrons, heck it’s a first home to some.”
She smiled beautifully at John as he turned to leave "Have fun. Hey Red, Mr. Freezies equals frozen meat."

Crystal watches with amusement.
It is great that we could all make it tonight.
A waitress makes her way to the table and asks everyone what they want.
I would like a vodka on the rocks. Light on the rocks though. If you have Silent Sam it would be preferable.
She slides the waitress a $20 and says,
That is for you, and can you run a tab for the table?

Just in time to catch Scarlet's ranting about the patrons of the place, Redeemer looks over to those she mentions with curiosity, but doesn't say much. It's not until the mention of frozen meat that she crinkles one side of her nose and snorts softly with distaste. The newcomer settles onto the edge of a seat and eyes the waitress almost warily.
Water, please, for the moment.
Turning back to the others, she questions,
I didn't miss anything tonight, did I?

Scarlet didn’t recognize the waitress, but with the constantly revolving employees that wasn’t too odd. “I’ll have another Talea in one of the chilled glasses from the freezer. That’s where they keep the Talea as well.” She settles back into the curved booth seats and waits for the waitress to finish before she continues.

Once the waitress moved on Scarlet addressed Redeemer.
"We've just been chatting about gathering for a hunt after everything is worked out. You in?"

Scott walks into the bar cover in what appears to be blood, the black eye is visible from across the room. He looks around give the evil eye to those who look at his battered frame. He walks slowly to the bar dripping blood every other step. He reachs over the bar and grabs a bar rag and slowly begins to wipe off the blood off his head.

John follows Scott. a small bruise under his left eye but otherwise unmarked. His knuckles are bloody and his shirt torn showing the rock hard physic underneath. Coming up beside Scott, John pats his shoulder and motions to the bartender. She comes over looking concerned at Scott. Listening to John but still looking at Scott she pours two fingers of scotch and gives it to John.
Thanks
John says smiling. Turning to look at the crowd John leans his elbow on the bar and watches the crowd. He sips the scotch, the blood dripping slowly from his hands. His presence a calm almost lazy pool of serenity in the bumping masses. He looks at nothing but seems to see all. The humans around him giving him plenty of space without seeming to be aware of it.

"Gooddamn it I remember when punks would just throw some punch, and then fall down. Where the hell did he get that stupid stick thing?" He leans back tossing the rag over the bar and into garbage.
"I mean fuck, what do people think they can do if they don't know how to fight? Lucky shot to my head I know but still they were going down." He waves to the bartender "Could you wraps some ice up for me I need to ice this down." Looking to John "I think this means I am done for the night, I know you can handle the rest of this." He waves to the crowd on the dance floor.

Yep, and it's called an ASP. collapsible titanium baton. I used one on the force. Don't worry Scott times change.

Redeemer's ears almost perk at the mention of a hunt.
"Of course I'm in. I don't think I've.."
She pauses when John and his friend enter the place, surprise registering on her face. The girl shifts uneasily in her seat, a hint curious and almost as if she wants to investigate further whatever caused the bloodspill.
"They look like.. okay, that other guy looks like he's been at it with a lawnmower or something. Is this common?"

Emperor, while waiting for his drink, sees John and Scott make their entrance. He slides his frame out of the booth, attempts to straighten his hat, fails, and makes his way over to the two of them, leaving the question written on his raised eyebrow.

"Not too common," Scarlet said glancing over as Emperor gets up "but sometimes people don't take kindly to being kicked out, or not let in. Luckily John's here, or Scott would probably be looking a lot worse."

John is my hero! Ahhhh
Crystal signs in a Hollywood type of sigh when a damsel in distress is rescued. She smiles and laughs quietly.

Seeing Emperor John puts the drink down and smiles. The hunter's look never leaving his eyes.

Emperor shrugs. Then he returns to his seat and takes a sip of the soured drink waiting for him.

John leaves his drink on the bar and pats Scott's shoulder.
Be back in a minute
He says. John walks over to Emperor, his step enlivened. He smiles at the ladies and at Emperor.
It's been a good night.

Crystal gives John a sly smile and says,
You are more than excited to back at it. Ever since you started here you been smilin' like the cat that swallowed the canary.
Crystal then looks to Emperor and asks,
What is your favorite color?

Crystal glances down at her glass of ice and says,
I would love another Vodka, no rocks this time.
She looks over at Emperor.
I appreciate your honesty on the matter.

John goes to the bar and makes his order. The bartender gives him his drinks and he comes back to the table.
Here you go. A Vodka tall and neat. A talea. And a Texas rodeo served Mexician.
John hands out the drinks then sits back twisting the top off a bottle of water and downing half of it.

"My honesty is always at my welcome."
Emperor looks at the... unique creation in front of him. A plethora of alcohols assaults everyone's nose at the table as the concoction consists of a little of everything behind a bar. The sour cream on top all but dissolves in the volitile mixture, but to add awesome to injury, the whole thing is topped off with a red chili which hasn't managed to eat it's way through the cream, glass, and table just yet. Some people say the trick to drinking one of these is to take it in before it melts through the floorboards.
Emperor takes a big swig and sloshes it around in his mouth, taking half the chili with it in the process. His mouth steams slightly as all the ingredients forcefully interact, and his swallow is followed by a small belch which, if anyone had a match, would prove cartoonish.
"It's got a little flavour to it, I kinda likes it." He takes another sip and continues to steam a little with each passing draw.
