The Player's Club

Chapter 1: Club Eclipse

Downtown Chicago is easily considered to be the most busiest cities during the night. Club Eclipse welcomes the best entertainment. Not only does it feature Poker, the Casino, Blackjack and more, it is mostly known for its strippers. There were three women preparing for the show, the one in yellow with a graduated bob, the one in blue with her hair down and the one in green with Chinese pigtails.

"Jade, hurry, we're up next."

Jade, the one in green, was finishing her makeup and faced the two women, Kitana and Tanya. The three had been friends since high school.

"Still trying to land a man?" asked Tanya.

"Tonight could be the night."

"You sure know how to get your hopes up," said Kitana.

At the club's entrance...

"Dawg, I'm telling you. This is the place to be."

"You said that last time."

Six men entered the club, arguing about the last club they went to.

"Ready, girls?" asked Tanya.

Jade joined the girls for the show. In truth, Jade did not want this life, but as a single child of divorce. School was too expensive and she wasn't able to afford a tuition. Kitana and Tanya told her of Club Eclipse, but Jade didn't want to end up in a place full of perverts, but Kitana told her that her mother, Sindel, owns the club and has offered Jade a job here to pay for her tuition. She happily accepted it, but still was wary of the people who would take advantage of her and her friends. Meanwhile, the men, Chris and Malcolm found an empty seat. They were celebrating Malcolm's birthday and believed this place was best since the other club they went to wasn't living up to their standards. The show started with Malcolm upfront. The table was decked out for him. When the show started, he would've ascertained that his eyes were deceiving him when he saw Jade. her and her friends were wearing stocking of their respective colors and matching thongs. Jade sees Malcolm and was intrigued. He has a medium afro and looks almost like her.

Quite handsome," she thought. And a birthday boy.

Chris noticed it himself and could see some chemistry between the two.

"Hello, handsome," said Jade.

"Look at that," Tanya pointed. "I told you."

"What's your name?"

"Malcolm."

"I'm Jade. I see it is your birthday. Well, sit back and enjoy and we can talk after the show."

"Somebody's getting lucky tonight," said Chris.

The girls put on a great show while Jade was eyeing on Malcolm the whole time. After the show...

"Enjoy the show?," asked Jade.

"Yes, I did."

"Here's my number. Maybe we can have tonight?"

"Of course."

Seems like Malcolm scored big time on his birthday.
