"You look great!" Tina complimented as Kasumi shyly stepped out of the bathroom. She was wearing a sparkly, milky pink spaghetti strap, with a white flowing miniskirt, and white high heels that strapped around her legs. Her hair was down with a matching silky, marbled scarf tied around her head as a headband. The knot was placed to the side so that its ends would hang over her shoulder.

"Umm… Lei Fang helped me out."

Tina observed her. "Hmm… Something's missing…" She grabbed a jewelry box out of her luggage and scavenged through it. "Ahah! Just what you need!" She pulled out a white choker with a pink diamond brooch.

"Oh, wow! It's beautiful…"

"And you'll be wearing it tonight. Come here."

Kasumi walked slowly towards her, a bit dazed.

"C'mon." She gestured. She grabbed Kasumi's shoulders and turned her towards the dresser mirror. "This is going to look great." Tina tied the choker around her neck. Kasumi watched through the mirror. She touched the diamond that was now perfectly placed on her neck.

"Thank you."

"No problem! Just don't loose it. It's really expensive." Tina looked at Kasumi. "It looks really good on you."

Kasumi smiled. She couldn't find anything to say.

"Well, I need to get ready."

Kasumi walked for the door.

"Wait – take this." She threw something to Kasumi.

"What is it?"

"Lip gloss! Every girl needs one." She winked.

Kasumi smiled and exited.

Out in the living room, she saw Lei Fang already dressed. Her hair was down, but instead of her usual bangs, it was held back by a black clip. She also applied eyeliner, making her appear more exotic. She wore a black v-neck halter-top, with dark denim boot-cut hip-huggers, and black stiletto heels. It was accented with silver hoop earrings and a charm bracelet.

"Oh my gawd! I love the choker!" Lei Fang remarked. "Where'd you get it?"

"Tina let me use it."

"Is that real diamond? And it's pink! I'm totally jealous. I like how it looks on you!"

Kasumi blushed. She was receiving so many compliments in one night.

"I like… umm… your outfit."

"Really? Thanks!" She happily began explaining where she goes shopping and where to get the latest fashions. Kasumi was easily lost.

Helena knocked on the bathroom door. "Ayane, are you sure you don't need any help? You've been in there for quite a while now."

Shuffling. "I think I can dress by myself, thank you!" More shuffling.

"Just checking…" Helena muttered. She walked over to the curtains and closed them, making sure that there were no openings for peeping toms. She then took off her pajamas and put on a dress she had prepared earlier on her bed. It was a long, white, halter-dress, complimented with a crimson red bowtie for her hair and a pair of white high heels that she borrowed from Lei Fang.

"What do you think?" Tina said from the doorway. She took off her brown shaded sunglasses and began posing. Her hair was pulled back in a ponytail, and on her ears were ruby studded earrings. She was wearing a sequined, American flag bikini top, a brown plated belt, and rusty denim jeans tucked into brown cowboy boots.

"Tina, that's very indecent." She said while applying lipstick in front of a mirror.

"What is?"

"That." Helena put the lipstick down and sucked her cheeks in.

"What?" Tina looked down. "My shirt?" She began laughing. "We're only clubbing!"

Helena turned to her and made a face.

"And what about you, miss perfect? You're completely out doing yourself with that long dress and all."

"It's Versace. It's the only dress I have with me."

"You need to jazz it up a bit." She walked over. "Mind if I do a little something?"

Helena hesitated a bit. "What are you doing?"

"Don't worry about it. Just trust me! I know what I'm doing." Tina grabbed the lower half of her dress and ripped it apart.

"Are you insane?! That was an eight hundred dollar dress!"

"Hmm…" She placed her finger on her lip. "I'd say I made it look better… and sexier. You look much more doable – if you know what I mean."

"Ugh!" She was shocked and disgusted. "I can't believe you just told me that!"

"It's true! Guys will be waiting in lines to wrap their legs around you!"

"Ugh!" She threw a shirt at her. "Will you stop?" she said playfully.

"C'mon, Helena! Where's your sensual side?"

Ayane opened the door and came out of the bathroom wearing a sparkly lavender tube top, with a leather miniskirt and suspenders attached. She was also wearing black thigh-high nylons and ankle boots. To make it more surprising, she had applied make-up and it didn't look bad. The two became quiet.

"What? Why are you guys looking at me like that?"

"Nothing. We just – we never saw you like this before, that's all." Helena looked at Tina.

"Wow, Ayane." Tina said completely amazed. "I didn't know you wore make-up. You did a good job!"

Ayane looked to the side. She blushed a bit. "I love doing make-up. It's one of my hobbies." She faced them. "But don't think I'm getting all girly on you guys! Just because I have a bit of eye shadow on, doesn't mean I'm a completely different person!"

"No! I don't think you're girly at all! You just look really… different!"

"Okay, enough about me! What about you? All of a sudden your butt is hanging out of your own dress!"

Helena gasped. She quickly turned to view herself in the mirror and was horrified with what she saw. Her lower cheeks were exposed. "Tina! What did you do?!"

"I told you. I was going to do a little something to you're dress."

"You call that a little something? You ruined it! I'm basically naked!"

"Again, I'd say I made it look better! You agree with me, right, Ayane? Her dress looks better short than monstrously long?"

"I don't know. I guess."

"See! You look fine in the dress!"

"No I don't! I'm changing."

"Oh, will you look at the time?" Tina interrupted. "Our limo will be here in any minute!"

She shoved the two out of the room.

"You ordered a limo?" asked Ayane.

"What did you think we were going to take? A cab? No way, like that would ever happen." Tina called over to Kasumi and Lei Fang, who were chatting on the couch. "C'mon, girls! We're going!"


Ayane and Kasumi were captivated by the inside of the limo. They looked through every nook and cranny including the snack bar and the liquor bottles.

"Those all come with the limo," Tina had informed them. "Knock yourselves out."

Kasumi looked through the ice chest next to her. "Oooh! Strawberry soda! It's my favorite."

"You're gross!" Ayane pulled out a bottle of grape soda. "Grape soda is better."

"Hmmm…" Lei Fang watched in fascination. "I find it amazing how you two are sisters, but tend to like the opposite things."

They glared at each other.

"I think that's cool. Different things make life interesting." Tina added.

"So, how do you know where we are going?" asked Helena.

"Simple. I just told Alfred over there to take us to the best club around here."

"Oh. You know his name?"

"No. I just call him that. Right, Alfred?" Tina tapped him on the back.

He replied something in German.

"What did he say?" asked Ayane.

Helena squinted her eyes. "I think he said we're almost there."

Kasumi shook her legs. "I'm nervous!"

"Don't worry. Just keep it real." Lei Fang ensured.

"Keep it real?"

"You know, just act yourself."

Ayane spotted the club as the limo drew closer. "Autobahn…"she read to herself. "What kind of name is that?!" There was a long line of people waiting to get in.

"There it is!" Tina pointed

"Where?!" Kasumi and Lei Fang asked. They moved forward for a better view.

"Over their!"

"Wow, that was a short drive," said Lei Fang, surprised.

Everyone quickly pulled out their make-up pouches and reapplied their make up. Kasumi, the only one without make up, picked the lip-gloss Tina gave her out of her pocket and slightly dabbed some on.

"Oh! I'm so excited!" Lei Fang wailed.

The limo came to a stop in front of the line of people.

Helena turned around to see them out the window. "There are so many of them…"

"How are we supposed to get in?" asked Ayane.

"Don't worry leave it all to me." Tina patted her hair. "Ready?"


The crowd watched curiously as they stepped out the limo: five glamorous beauties, each with their own exoticness. The crowd began to stir and some pictures were being taken. Tina blew a kiss towards them and began posing.

"Tina Armstrong!" you could hear people whisper to each other. Some began grabbing pens out for her autograph while others were wailing her name.

"I love you, Tina!" a man hollered in a heavy German accent.

"Thank you! I love you too!" she answered back. She began to sign autographs.

In no time, the paparazzi were everywhere.

"Tina! Tina!" One of them with a camera caught her attention. "Who are these lovely ladies here with you tonight?"

"Them? These are my girlfriends!" She pulled them forward. "C'mon, guys! Lets look great on the tabloids!" Lei Fang and Ayane began posing without hesitation, but it took a while for Helena and Kasumi to get into it.

"You girls are hot. Anything going on?"

Tina giggled. "We could be naughty if we wanted to…" she teased to leave them in question.

A well-dressed man came up from behind her.

"Excuse me, Tina Armstrong?"

"Yes?"

"I am the owner of Autobahn. I am very pleased to have you as our guest."

"Thanks!"

"Please, would you mind if I led you and your companions to the VIP lounge?"

"That would be great."

The owner, along with several bodyguards, led the way into the building, passed the enormous line. Everyone stared as they walked in.
