Out Tonight
Midnight, in New York: The streets were filled to the brim. Meaningless faces, abrupt encounters, hidden identities, all things she thrived on. Armed with some killer heels, a dress to die for, and a purse full of cash, Aino Minako was ready to take advantage of her two week vacation in the large city.
She shifted through the sea of people, the lights in the club making her golden tresses shimmer like sunlight. Moving like lightning, twirling from dance partner to dance partner, she was never intent on staying with one man for too long.
A strong arm grabbed the woman as she was just about to switch to another dancer nearby. She cocked a golden eyebrow at the intruder.
"Leaving so soon?" the man asked. "I was hoping we could dance a bit longer."
"Sorry. Not here for the long term. Gotta get what I can before it's gone," she winked.
"How mysterious. May I ask why?"
A feather light kiss was her reply. Shocked, the man released her. With another wink, Minako moved onto her next dance partner.
In another hour or two, she moved to another club, and another, and another…not stopping until the sun began to rise.
