From the night of Sunday January 23rd 2011 The club is dark and cool. The air pulsates with the energy of all the people crowded inside. Bass reverberations rattle the walls and soothe a teenager's heart as she weaves through the crowd. She entices many men but none of them are what she's looking for. Now a gloved hand grabs her arm and pulls her in towards the center of the crowd. The touch sends a jolt of electricity up her arm or so it seems. She suddenly knows this is who she's looking for. She is pulled to the center of the mass of people. There is a small clearing in which two teenage boys are standing. They are both clad in all black gloves and body suits. She pauses for a moment as one more dominant pulls her to him. What kind of material was that suit made of? Definitely not spandex surely not cotton. They begin to dance rather tamely. They other boy watches his body language suggesting smugness. That's when the girl realizes they're both wearing very familiar looking helmets. Then how was she seeing their faces? It just have been the energy they were giving off. They were dancing for hours. |
