She sat at the table, hiding in the back of the VIP section. Staring down at her bottle of alcohol in front of her that was half empty, her stomache started to turn and burn. Bile rose in her throat and she had to call on all her self control to keep from throwing up. She leaned back in the booth and closed her eyes, waiting for the feeling to pass, counting backward from 10, then from 20, and then from 30. Finally, her stomache calmed down and she slowly sat back up. She wrapped her fingers back around the neck of the bottle and lifted it to her lips. The liquid stung as it flowed down her throat and her cracked lips. Another night, another bottle... another try at forgetting...

     Kara spun around the dance floor with AJ, she couldn't help but look around the club for Taz and Jenn. The music was hot and bumping loud. From behind, she felt a tap on her shoulder. Turning around Kara looked at Taz.

     "You find her?" She asked.

     "Yeah, I found her," Taz nodded, "She's um... yea. She's in full Sin mode."

     Kara shook her head, "Well we are just going to have to run this out again. Where is she?"

     Taz looked up behind AJ and Kara, and smiled evily while raising an eyebrow, "Ah... up there?" She chuckled as she pointed toward the stage area where Jennisen was standing, still in her full outfit. Her fedora hat was tilted covering the right side of her face as her hair hung down in curls framing the left side. She put her fingers in her mouth and let out a shreiking wistle that cut through the entire club haulting the music.

     "Ladies?" She drawled, raising her head slightly with her trade mark lip bite, "Let's have a lil... fun."

     Letting out a laugh, Kara slapped Taz on the back and headed for the stage, "Man, I hate to admit it, but I love it when Sin wants to play."

     AJ stood bewildered as Howie and Linds walked up behind him. Howie patted AJ on the back, "Where are they going?" Howie asked him.

     "I have no idea. All I hear was Jenn saying something about fun and Kara refuring to Sin wanting to play." AJ said as the three of them headed after Taz and Kara.

     As they made it to the stage, the 3 found Taz, Kara and Jenn standing  in a row spaced out about 4 feet from eachother. They each held a mic in their hands, held at their sides. Kara brought her mic to her lips, "How about a free little show." She teased the crowd who started to cheer loudly.

     "Good Gawd, it's nice to be home," Jennisen laughed. "Sorry, but Lish couldn't make it this evening. She is to busy 'Setting it Off' with a new toy. But seriously, I love my home town!! There is no place to party better then MILWAUKEE!!"

     Taz nodded and spoke into her mic, "I have to admit it, Sin is right. There is nothin' like the Brew City!" She hollared, throwing her free hand up in the air, "WOOT! WOOT!"

     Suddenly the lights dimmed and a base music pulsed. The three girls dropped their hands to their sides, and started to rotate their hips to the beat. Jenn softly spoke, "Baby. Ladies. Fellas. Are you ready? Let's dance. Baby..ohhhh."

     Kara snickered as she began to sing her verse with the girls echoing her in the background, "I know you like me. I know you do. That's why whenever I come around she's all over you. I know you want it. It's easy to see. And in the back of your mind I know you should be fucking me. Baby."

     The three girls began to sing together while doing a mild sultry dance, "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me? Don't cha? Don't cha? Don't cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me? Don't cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me? Don't cha? Don't cha?"

     Taz and Kara spun eachother and traded places. Taz bent down with on knee on the ground as she sang, "Fight the feeling. Leave it alone. 'Cause if it aint loveiIt just ain't enough to leave my happy home. Let's keep it friendly. You have to play fair. See I don't care, but I know she ain't gonna wanna share." Standing up the girls once again went into the chorus standing in a tight lil circle with their back to eachother. As they sang the bridge of the song, 3 chairs were set on the stage. This time Jennisen took the center stage with the Kara and Taz behind her with the back of their chairs all touching.

     Jennisen sat in her chair and traced the brim of her fedora with her fingers as she took lead vocal, "I know she loves you. So I understand. I probably be just as crazy about you if you where my own man. Maybe next lifetime. Possibly. Until then no friend possibly is a drag for me."
    
     As she sung the last 2 lines she stood up and lifted the chari over her hand and placed it behind her and Kara and Taz's chairs. Quickly Kara and Taz got out off their chair and held down Jenns chair as Jenn put her hands on the top of the back of her chair lifted her legs up and kicked the other two chairs across the stage. The girls quickly marched up the stage again and sang the chorus once more while dancing even dirtier. When the song ended the lights went out and the girls got off the stage before the lights came back on.

     Kara, Taz and Jenn hurried over to AJ, Howie and Linds who were clapping and wisteling. AJ lifted Kara into spin. "Oh my GOD, you guys were hot!!!"

     Taz laughed as she threw her arm over Jenn's shoulder, "Yea, it would have been hotter if Lishious would have come with."

     "How did you girls pull that off?" Howie asked as he looked Jennisen, who ignored him, over.

     "Sin's got connections up the ying-yang." Kara answered as she looked at Taz and motioned her head at Jenn. Jenn was starting to sway slightly side to side.

     Taz held Jenn tightly, "Um, I need to go outside for some fresh air. Sin, would you come with me?" she asked. Without even waiting for an answer from Jenn, Taz lead her away from the group and outside.

     AJ raised an eyebrow to Kara, "Are they okay?" he asked. He had seen Jenn's eyes glassed over, and he wondered what she had been doing while she was missing for those 2 hours. He didn't want to think of what she might have been doing. But he didn't know any off the Hidden Fate memebers well enough to say anything.

     Looking up at AJ, Kara carefully chose her words, "They both are beat from the preformance, Sin gets worked up in small private crowds and Taz can't been in enclosed rooms for too long. No biggie," She answered, "Come on people." She said, pulling AJ and Linds who dragged Howie, onto the dance floor. "Let's shack this place up."

     Taz hovered over the crouching Jenn who was sitting up against the wall outside the building. She had a bouncer bring them a small trash can for Jenn. "Come on Sin, just let it out. It will help." Taz said calmly as she rubbed Jenn's back.

     Jenn's chest started to convulse  as her body started to reject the contents in her stomach. It felt as if her chest was going to cave in as she finally began to throw up into the trash can. Tears ran down her face as she kept throwing up. After a little while, she took in a small breath and sobbed as she tried to speak, "It's didn't work. I can't forget..."
