Charging Porpoise

Tony groaned as he slumped into his chair, since it was the day of the grand opening. Right now, he was resting after taking care of several of the employees, and he felt rather tired. He looked to the clock on his office, and noticed that there were only three hours left till the club opened. There was already a small line forming, considering the fact that numerous people were interested in the new club opening up, and right now, he was worried if they even had the capacity for the numerous people coming in. Mark was down at the bar, preparing for the numerous drinks that would obviously be ordered. Alex, Ash, and Corey were in line, waiting for their chance to get in. Mint was up on the DJ station, doing some last tweaks to the electronic system, and was dressed in the attire of a porpoise, the namesake of the entire club. He had obtained a hoodie that was shaped like a porpoise, and Tony had to admit, it looked rather good. He was tired, primarily due to the fact that he had been instructing the security detail how to do their job. That had been somewhat intense, and he was honestly itching to go back to slaughtering people. They hadn't done that kind of task in a long time, and to be frank, he was getting really bored. He wanted to feel that adrenaline rush, the feeling when he smashed a person's head into pieces with his own bare fists. Hell, with aura, he might obliterate the head completely, but here he was, slouching in a rather cushy chair, with his feet on the table, bored out of his mind. He started to doze off a little, and began to dream of being an action hero, taking down hundreds and hundreds of goons with his bare hands and his friends at his side. He would only be napping for a few hours.

Mark wiped the bar counter one last time, and looked around the room. Mint was dressed in a cartoony porpoise one piece hoodie, and Mark had to admit, the guy did look like the mascot of the club. He had to give props to whoever made the entire outfit, and right now, the waitresses had some somewhat revealing clothing on, and the security detail looked as menacing as ever. They were all armed with pistols, courtesy of several arms shop, and each of their pistols were well hidden under their coats. The bouncer outside had a modified shotgun, small enough to be hidden, but strong enough to pack a large punch. Meanwhile, he knew that the security detail in the top floor had actual SMGs, and he was actually shocked that every single security guard had managed to hide weapons that big. Heck, even the waitresses had knives hidden in their clothes, and he honestly wondered what the big- oh right, this was the hideout for the 50 Blessings. True, these guys didn't know it, and the excuse they gave was the fact that they wanted to be well prepared for anything. Only Mint didn't have a weapon, which was fine by that guy, he didn't really want to go through any kind of fights. However, they still did keep the weapons, and they all went to fire arms and combat practice, courtesy of Tony and Ash. The employees had all improved in their skills of battle, to the point where they could be recruits for the 50 Blessings... but Corey didn't want that. She wanted to keep employees different from the members, and Mark could honestly see why. He knew that they planned to change the logo of 50 Blessings a bit, just to make the symbol more known to people, but other than that, the organization would stay the same. Except the target was now the White Fang, and to be frank, he was okay with that, seeing that the organization was out to wipe out all of humanity. It was like the Russians, who wanted nothing more than the destruction of good Ol' America, and this was their counterpart. That meant they had to work extra hard to take these guys out, and he just sighed. He could go for a large slice of pizza right about now, and when he looked at the clock, there was only a few minutes left before the club opened. He really hoped they wouldn't be swamped on the first day.

Coco and her team sighed when the line started to move, it seemed like the club had finally opened. They had been standing outside for an hour, and to be honest, they were pretty far back. All of them underestimated how popular the club would be on the first day, and to be frank, they didn't expect a large line like this. Probably because most of Junior's customers were heading to this club, and several numerous people who were interested by the posters that were put up. They were rather bizarre and interesting, to say the least, which was exactly why Coco and her team were visiting the club. Also the fact that Junior's club got trashed by some person, but Coco never actually touched up on that subject, considering the amount of time it actually took to find a new club. Velvet sincerely hoped that Coco and the rest of the team liked this club enough to make it a temporary regular, simply because of how much Coco actually liked clubs. She honestly hated to see Coco be completely bummed out by the fact that there were no actual clubs that the four of them could visit and have fun at. That was usually the highlight of the week, being able to party at a club that they usually frequent. She really hoped that this establishment wasn't racist against faunus, remembering that one club that had refused to let her in primarily because she was not a human. The result wasn't pretty, and they ended up crashing the club, figuratively and literally. It was not a good time having to explain the amount of damage they had caused to the club to Ozpin and Glynda, and thankfully enough, the punishment was to just pay back the club owner, who politely declined the payment, simply because of how scared he was of Coco.

After a good bit of time, the line had dwindled to the point where Velvet could see the bouncer. He looked rather menacing, wearing a black coat with sunglasses. He was letting people in after seeing their identification card from the looks of things, and Velvet was glad that they all brought their ID cards. It was finally their turn to enter the club, but before they could walk in, the bouncer put his hand out, and then asked for their identification. Now that Velvet was up close to him, she could notice that this guy was a little bit taller than Coco, and had a lot of muscles on his body as well. He did look mean, and Velvet was worried that he might pull something on them, such as a fake entrance fee or some kind of lie that one club did with Coco, at least before they saw that she was a huntress. She simply smiled and flashed her hunter card, and the bouncer simply huffed and let them in, and they walked into the club, only to be bombarded by loud music.

Coco and her team instantly covered their ears, while Velvet desperately tried to cover her ears to no avail. The music was loud, and that was an understatement. They could feel the vibrations of the music, and they were all utterly shocked how they couldn't hear this music outside. The song was also alien to them, they didn't know what this was. It sounded off, odd, and actually somewhat amusing. After a while of walking around a little, hands over their ears, they finally released them to realized they had gotten used to the music. Since they were closing their eyes while covering their ears, the next thing they knew, there were flashing lights going on, not so much that it made people epileptic or hard to see, but enough where people were able to see the different colors. They started to make their way to the dance floor, and they noticed that there was an upper area to this floor. There was the bar, which was rather filled up, with the poor bartender doing his best to make the drinks as quickly and efficient as he could. There was another bouncer, and he was guarding the VIP section, which happened to have waitresses tending to the patrons' needs. There was another door in the VIP area which had a bouncer guarding the area, occasionally letting people in after seeing identification and a small pile of lien. The DJ was dressed like a dolphin, at least from Velvet's perspective, and was the one controlling the music. The dance floor was rather filled, with people whooping and yelling as they danced. Coco was actually smiling, and Velvet thought she heard her say something about how this was new. They ended up heading straight towards the bar, in order to taste their drinks and assess whether it was good or not. The closer they got to the dance floor, however, the harder it got to hear, and the song simply got louder.

When they finally arrived to the bar, they sighed in relief, since it was a good bit more quiet than the dance floor. Thankfully, by the time they arrived, the crowd had began to dissipate a little, and they were able to get some stools for the four of them. It was the last four stools at that area, and Velvet realized how popular this place actually was. It was crowded, and it was as if they were trying to go through a bunch of mud to reach their destination. She remembered that experience with Coco, and how much Coco actually freaked out when she got mud all over her designer pants. That was not a fun day, and she ended up helping Coco remove all of the dirt from those pants. The bartender, who looked swamped, could only chuckle when he noticed the four of them, and Velvet realized they were still covering their ears. "First time, eh? Don't worry, you get used to it after all. So, what will you guys want to get? We do have a menu if you don't know what to get." Velvet looked up, and was honestly shocked at the large amount of drink varieties they could order from. Coco ended up getting a Bounty cocktail, Yatsuhashi and Fox both got something called Grasshopper Cocktail, and Velvet herself ordered a Red Velvet Cake Martini, just to see how it tasted like. A few minutes later, and the four of them got their drinks, and they paid the bartender, and included a fifteen lien tip for each of them. He smiled graciously when accepting them, and told them to enjoy their drinks, while walking away to take the order of another patron. They all sipped their drinks, and Velvet found herself putting a palm to her cheek and blushing from the taste of the cocktail. It was out of this world, and to be frank, she never actually tasted this kind of alcoholic mixture before. Everyone seemed rather happy with their drink, and they all ordered another glass of the drink they had.

After three drinks, Velvet decided to stop with the alcohol for now. Coco stated she was going to finish after her fourth one, with Fox joining her as well. Yatsuhashi looked like he was going to try one more drink before leaving the bar, and she ended up waiting for them as they finished their fourth and final drink. After the alcohol was consumed and savored, they danced at the floor, doing moves to the odd music that was playing. The DJ was jamming out, everyone was having fun, Velvet included. She spotted several faunus here and there, and that told her that this place, despite its popularity, has chosen to allow faunus into its club premises, and that made her happy. She could honestly count how many clubs were racist against faunus, which was three, due to the low number of clubs actually existent in Vale. There was Junior's, which was actually open to faunus, and now this one, where she could have fun at. This was probably going to replace Coco's favorite hang out, and she could honestly see herself hanging out at this club much more. She was curious about what awaited at the VIP area, but that could wait. Right now, she wanted to have fun with Coco, Fox, and Yatsuhashi, and she started to move her body to the music, dancing and laughing with her team. It would be a good night for the four.


And that was the fifty fourth installment of Hotline RWBY: Requiem for the Fans! I hope you enjoyed this chapter, and if you did, please favorite, follow, and review! Honestly, give me the reviews, I really want to read them! And as always, enjoy hurting people!

Review Response Time!

Aquas1998: To be honest, I did do some research on bullets in order to actually make this chapter. I did do my stuff, so thankfully it did come out a good bit accurate. I'm able to be quick because I don't have things delaying me, but I will have those troubles soon. Till next time!

Terminator57: I will be most likely doing that! I need to actually reveal how much the Fans have changed in the past four years in Remnant, after all, I haven't been doing that as much as I should. It would be rather fun to show off some of Tony's managing skills... ehehehe. Thank you so much for that critique, I'll try my best to implement that idea! As for the 50 Blessings... I do believe that the logo will change a bit, but other than that, the name's not going to change at all. The Fans know that there isn't an United States in this world, but they still want to be reminded of the good ol' Fifty States. That's why the name won't change, and it will somewhat work in their favor, numerous people won't be able to understand the meaning behind it. They will configure the logo to have some connection to Remnant, but that's as far as they're going to go. Till next time!
