People. The snobs that like to cozy up to others then hate behind their backs. They were lingering around the fancy ballroom, dressed in expensive clothing and drape in money, where people from important business turn to predators. Except for four. Just because they weren't there for business, that doesn't automatically mean they weren't there for their prey.
Spy. A person who secretly collects and reports information on activities and blah, blah, blah. Though, we all know what they be like in movies; It might not always be true, but maybe in this case, it is.
Anyway, I should introduce you to those four out there (Group 1) -(and others)(Group 2).
Shira - Draped with some jewelry, her black hair in a half up-do, her dress - A floor length mock two piece black lace gown, her natural make-up would bring out her eyes and gets such predator looks from others.
Ellie - Her brown hair in curls that frame her face and showed barely no make-up, dressed in a sleeveless key hole beaded waist jersey dress, she surly did get those predator looks.
Both making other woman and two certain others quite jealous, you could say.
Diego - His light brown, dark orange hair was in a high low fade, hard part, and textured quiff. Dressed in a grey tux with no tie; open collar with his Tank Solo watch on his wrist.
Manny - Deep shade of brown was blown dry back as he wore a black tux with a red tie, as well as his Rolex 9829 on his wrist. And the tallest one out of the entire group and most in the ballroom.
You can basically get the felling that they might have been the most good looking people there, after all, predator looks from all (except from those who are loyal to the ones they love, hopefully).
Then the others who are on watch...
Sid - His dirty blond hair and some what of a buck tooth teeth, can be his biggest advantage. Even if he's not really on the smart side, he does have his moments.
Crash and Eddie - Twins. The most troublesome pair of twins. Brunette and the smallest of the group, but don't let them trick you. The only way to separate them is by their eyes. Eddie has brown eyes and Crash has blue.
Buck - Just having one eye doesn't stop him from his adventures. Brown hair and blue eye(s?) and a green eye-patch covering his right. He'll will always be adventurous and getting into danger.
As they are all wearing black to hide within the night, with weapons at reach (also a bad idea with their personalities), they are ready for anything.
Now, that I introduced you to the team, I should get back to the story, you could say.
The four were spread out, like a cross, drinks in hand. Watching for their prey.
"I thought you four were supposed to blend in, not stand out." Was heard through invisible hearing aids that group 1 were wearing. It was Buck who spoke.
"It's not our faults that we look this good," Said a smirking Diego, as the others nodded in their agreement.
"Anyway, is our target here?" Manny said, as the other three came towards him to group together and not make anyone think they are crazy for speaking to themselves.
"Well -" Buck was cut off when a crash was heard through the hearing aids. "What was that? Is everything okay?" Asked a worried Ellie.
"That was awesome!" Came a voice. "Yea, we need to do that again." Came another that sounded almost the same to the first one. "But, bigger and better!" Was exclaimed from both voices as a following smacking sound came.
"Crash and Eddie, what did you both do?" Ellie asked in a stern voice. But before they could answer, Shira had spoken. "Don't bother asking Ellie, what ever they did would surly give you a heart attack. So right now let's focus. Where's our target?"
"Well-" Buck was once again interrupted.
"Don't they know Sid isn't here," Crash spoke. "Yea, Sid got lost along the way." Spoke Eddie. Then a crash was heard. "Never mind, he's here!" The troublesome pair said.
"Sid." Group 1 had spoken together in a way that would make chill run up your spine.
"Y-" A Gulping sound was heard. "Yea." Sid had trouble getting out the words. But, before any of them could say anything, Sid had spoken. "The target's there and it looks like he'll be walking out soon!"
"We'll deal with you later, Sid, but right now we need a distraction." Said Diego as he was thinking. A sigh of relief could be heard.
"Yea, and Diego can provide us with that." Manny said with smug smile. "No, Manny. You said you wouldn't-" Diego was cut off by Manny. "And I'm not telling anyone. I'm saying you should distract people with that certain thing."
"Wait, you mean -" Ellie was answered by a nod from Manny. Diego groaned.
Diego was about to say something but Shira beat him to it.
"We don't have time for this. Diego go distract the people." She said.
"He'll need your help Shira. Buck, lights." Ellie commanded.
All of a sudden the lights were cut off, making people frighten.
Shira had felt someone push her.
The lights were still off as music had started. Instruments playing high notes in a beautiful unison.
I've been here before
But always hit the floor
A voice sang with such emotion. A spotlight had came on and spotted the one who sang: Diego.
He continued to sing as he stepped down the stairs, which were in front of him. A spot light had landed on Shira, making people stepped back, leaving a keyhole - like space. People focused on them.
But with you I'm feeling something
That makes me want to stay
Diego came right up to her with his hand out, asking her to dance with him. Slowly, Shira accept the offer.
If I risk it all
Could you break my fall?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
They dance almost slowly as possible; Timed with the music, with beat, with heart.
"You guys better be recording this." Said Ellie as she and Manny slipped back and headed towards someone.
"We are. Now, c'mon. He's distracted." Said Buck.
Ellie and Manny looked at each other, saying "Ready" before moving.
Ellie was walking towards a man who was bald headed and had a big belly, as well as a thin mustache. He didn't see her coming, so it gave Ellie a chance to "accidentally" bump into him.
"Oh! I am so sorry! I was so distracted by the show, I didn't see where I was going." Ellie said, as her drink was all over the man. "Hey, El- Oh no! Let's go get you cleaned up." Manny had come up and whisked them away, while everybody was still captivated by their distraction.
"Guys, there's trouble. Use the back ways. I got to cut Diego off. Sid and the twins will go outside and cause distractions. I'll be ready with the car." Buck hurriedly said.
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
How do I live? How do I breathe?
When you're not here I'm suffocating
Diego had heard say they didn't have much time, but he didn't care. After all, is not everyday a woman, like Shira, would let you touch her without biting your face off. So, he continued to dance.
Tell me is this where I give it all up?
For you I have to risk it all
Cause the writing's on the wall
He held the last note as he and Shira ended still in a loving embrace; His front to her back. Even when the silence came and the crowd applauded.
"I didn't know you could sing." She whispered.
"There's many things people don't know about me. Let's go join the others. After all, we're in a hurry."
Then they were off.
