Norum takes his wallet out of his pocket, swiftly presents it to the bouncer swiftly to show familiar motion but with no aggression. Every damn time...

     Daniel followed suit, producing his ID card.

Ryde shows his identification to the bouncer.

"You're good,"



Norum takes his wallet out of his pocket, swiftly presents it to the bouncer swiftly to show familiar motion but with no aggression. Every damn time...

The bouncer looks between you and your ID, looking for any discrepancy. Baffled at your appearance, he takes a reader out of his back pocket and scans it. It checks out again. He still looks unsure.

He shrugs.

"Sure, you're good,"



     Daniel followed suit, producing his ID card.

"Good,"



You pay the cover charge and are met with a sonic assault as you enter. The interior of the club is spacious, full of clean features and sharp edges. The interior also incorporates more white into its color palette than the exterior, alongside many shades of blues and other cold colors. The building layout features a large circular dance floor in front of a stage, flanked at either side by tables and seating on a split level that rings the dance floor. To one side there is a bar. There is also a stairwell upstairs. The club is pretty busy.

"Alright guys," Norum says, nearly shouting just to be heard over the music, "We'll all split up and look around. If you need an image, to remind you, Elena sent us all copies. Try to say out of her sight alone. Ryde, if you see her, call me up. Daniel, if you see her, get me and Ryde up there. Stand watch but don't look like it. Sound good?"

Ryde nods, breaking off from the group down to the left side of the platform above the dance floor, scoping it out to see if she is on the floor.

Norum tries to squeeze through the throngs to check each table, checking his phone to refresh his memory briefly before pressing a button on the side to make the screen go dark, and slips it into his pocket, craning his head to check around the tables.

Ryde tries again, scanning around the bar for the individual.

Norum decides to travel to the other side, searching tables further away from the thumping bass and dance floor.

You three eat up a lot of time and still cannot find the girl. Norum and Daniel both appear lost. Norum is approached by a bouncer.

"Hey man, you lost?"

Ryde squints. He seems rather irate that not only cant he find the girl, but he has gotten lost in the crowd. He tries to find his bearings.

"Uh, no man. Trying to find someone. My phone is dead." Norum says, again trying to scan over the tables.

     Daniel decides to do a bit of dancing on the dance floor while Norum and Ryde handle business.

"Ah, 'ight, well, good luck mate,"

You have eaten up some half an hour now.

     Daniel decides to do a bit of dancing on the dance floor while Norum and Ryde handle business.

You enjoy yourself on the job.

Ryde scoffs at his watch, realizing the time that has passed. He then goes to the section Norum went off to, trying to find him.
