A Swift Meeting
Artemis Crock and Megan Morse's apartment, Gotham city, New Jersey
Friday evening
10:25 p.m.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
It is now 10:50 and all Artemis has accomplished tonight is rolling over hitting the snooze button and falling back to sleep, just as she started to doze off again she starts to hear a loud knock at her bedroom door and a high pitched voice calling out her name. That aggravatingly sweet voice belonged to none other than Megan Morse aka the "Ginger Barbie" who also happens to be her roommate and best friend. But as much as Artemis loves Megan she ignores her hoping that she'll take her silence as a hint to leave, Artemis tries to lure herself back to a state of sleep only to hear the knocking increase and Megan's voice rise unable to block out the noise Artemis wakes up throws her covers back with a groan and rushes to the door with the intent to give the redhead a piece of her mind only to open the door and see her friend dressed in her uniform of a white bra and matching panties her angel wings in hand Artemis silently panics shit I forgot we have to work!
"Artemis what have you been doing?" without letting her answer she continues on her little tirade "Hurry up and get dressed we have to be at work by 11:30 and you know how Canary hates it when we're late and more importantly I'm supposed to be there before opening!"
The blonde turns to look to look at the time and sees that it is now 11:15 and silently curses. Realizing her mistake Artemis apologizes "Sorry Megs I totally forgot it was Friday, just let me take a shower and I'll be ready."Receiving a pout and a quick nod from her friend she rushes off to the bathroom not wanting to get the aerialist in trouble. Several minutes later damp hair dripping down her back as she's looking through her closet she decides to forgo the usual "glamour look" for something a bit more casual due to the time. Reaching in her closet Artemis pulls out a white men's dress shirt, a black distressed belt, and thigh-high boots. Quickly dressing and brushing her now dry waist length locks the blonde glances at her clock to see it is now 11:25 throwing on her lipstick and eyeliner and grabbing her coat she runs out of her room looking for the perky redhead and finds her sitting patiently on their couch.
"Megan, I'm ready."
"Good now let's go before we're even later than we already are." With an eye roll Artemis makes her way to the front door with Megan following swiftly behind her securing and locking the door, Artemis hails a cab both jumping in quickly trying to avoid the cold weather and they're off and on their way.

Aerie Nightclub, Downtown Gotham City, New Jersey
12:00 a.m.
Dick Grayson and Wally West are outside of Aerie Nightclub on their way in for a boy's night on the town both being paparazzi favorites Dick for being Bruce Wayne's ward and picking up his adoptive father's "dating habits" and Wally West for being Gotham City's resident MVP championship bad boy both have had their fair share of scandalous rumor's and front page article's. Keeping that in mind the duo decided to try something different tonight and branch out from their usual hot spots. Walking through the door Wally abruptly stops to take in the atmosphere and sees women in lingerie hanging from the ceiling angel wings sticking out of their backs twisting and turning to the beat of the music, rainbow strobe lights, and a white fabric covering the walls he take a quick glance at the furniture a mixture of cream and dark mahogany giving the establishment a feminine yet masculine vibe. The flame headed man feels a hand grab his shoulder and takes a deep breath when he turns and spots his all-knowing bestfriend with a look of pure astonishment at the sight that they're beholding.
"What the fuck Rob? You know I hate when you do that creepy shit." But before Rob gets a chance to open his mouth a scantily clad brunette dressed in black and white comes over to them a very hot brunette if he might add. "Hi Mr. West and Mr. Grayson welcome to Aerie, my name is Zatanna and I will be your hostess for tonight please follow me." The young woman then proceeds to take them past the dance floor and upstairs to a secluded V.I.P area near the bar, making his way over to their table and taking a seat with his raven haired friend following close behind him Wally turns to Dick and starts to shout over the loud music so that he can be heard "Dude this place is awesome I told we should've come here look at these girls man they all look like Victoria Secret models and OH MY GOD," he exclaims "Rob did you just see that bird lady do a split in the air!?" Without even giving the woman a glance Dick replies to his obnoxious best friend with a dull "Yes" staring at the brunette beauty knowing that he's found his "catch" for tonight. Feeling a bit uncomfortable under the younger man's strong gaze Zatanna clears her throat and then asks the men "What can I get for you?"Wally being practical orders a beer while Rob gets a vodka with a twist on the rocks on her way out the brunettes lock eyes and Grayson knows he has caught her interest, throwing her one of his sexiest grins he gives his thanks and makes his way back over to his overly excited friend with a smirk.
Catching the earlier display Wally turns to his friend and playfully says "Well, well, well what do we have here a little birdy who's already trapped in a cage? By the look on your face Rob you'd think she spends all her time doing magic, and to think" he gasps in mock horror "you haven't even gotten to play with little ol'kitty cat yet." Giving no other reponse but a groan Dick rolls his eyes and looks towards the bar Wally noticing this follows his friend's gaze and catches Zatanna talking to some blond fixing drinks behind the bar becoming restless and tired of the wait Wally leaves his friend at their table and heads to the bar taking a seat right next to Zatanna, turning her head to the side and seeing Wally she immediately feels guilty and quickly begins to speak "I'msorryforthewait" "Excuse me?" Wally asks face scrunched in confusion she then repeats herself again slower this time "I'm sorry for the wait Mr. West, but we only have one bartender working tonight and she's a bit swamped."
Understanding Wally continued to wait but soon became a bit bored so he turns to the hostess and says "You know you don't have to call Mr. West Zee, may I call you Zee?" without pausing to let her respond he continues rambling on and on "Besides do I look like a Mr. West? I'm too young to be a Mr. West I'm only 23 my father is Mr. West he's old trust me he has all the creases and wrinkles to prove it" twenty minutes later "and that's why you should just call me Wally" he finishes giving Zatanna a bright smile not being able to see her dazed face and the blank look in her eyes. She takes a quick glance towards Artemis and sees that the blonde was now done with her other customers giving thanks to a higher power the younger woman waves the bartender towards her end of the bar. Minutes later Artemis arrives and asks her friend what she needed Zee then reads both men's orders off her tablet and is off to take orders somewhere else hurrying to get away from the scarlet blabber mouth. He turns to ask Zatanna to add on to the order only to see that she has seemingly disappeared unable to find her he makes due with the bartender calling her with a "Hey you" because he doesn't know this chicks name getting no response he starts becoming frustrated because there's no one at the bar right now but some drunk guy. Her heads looking down and it's starting to seem like she's purposely ignoring him and no one ignores the "Wall-man"so Wally West being the gentlemen that he is screams out "Hey Blondie, I got a certain itch that needs to be scratched if you know what I mean." Catching her reaction he suddenly becomes proud of himself when he sees the blonde's body freeze up, he starts to think he's gotten a rise out her and is quickly surprised when he hears a raspy feminine voice reply "An itch huh? You sure you don't have Chlamydia fire crotch?"Turning his head with a witty retort that instantly dies on his lips looking into the exotic face of a world class beauty. Staring into those storm filled eyes with a devilish smirk he takes a sip of his freshly made drink giving the beautiful blonde another look and thinking how this night just got a little bit more interesting.
