((I keep sucking at this teaching thing >.< So I'm putting a little more time into it. That and I'm brain dead after a day of teaching. Sorry!))
Jerry smiled at Ella, "Get better. Take as much time as you need off that leg. I need to go have a chat with someone." He put a hand on Ella's shoulder, squeezing lightly before going to the front.
When he entered the front bar, as henna was approaching the bar, he spoke to her, "Hey there Dragonfly. Where've you been so far tonight? We could have used you a little earlier." Jerry poured the beers, "By the way, you're currently the main bar maid. Butterfly hurt her leg and Firefly had to run a quick errand for me. We were short on some supplies and I'm afraid tonight might be a big night."
He turned to some other customers, then stopped, turning back to Henna, "Dragonfly, one more thing, why were you late?"

Alex ducked out and raced back to the bar. He could not do it; never could he bare to hurt anyone. Her ran in the back door and sat down on the bench in the back room. She was breathing hard and he felt like he would loose his lunch. “What the hell…” He muttered and his hand pulled the feline mask and wig from his head, freeing his flushed face. Then very suddenly she buried his head in his hands. He was still in shock and he knew that he was in to deep.

Ella looked at Jerry while he was going out. Then she noticed that her leg was looking better and decided to stand up. "looks good" she said as she stood up ever so slowly. "Maybe I should walk a little. Just to see how it goes." she though while going to the dressing room. There she took her wig off and mask then decided to open the door only to find..
"Alex?" She was surprised to find him there looking flushed. From the looks of it it seemed as if he didn't take the truth well. She decided to sit with Alex. "Alex... I'm sorry I had to drag you into this..." She told him. Her voice was obviously in regret. She thought that it was time for Alex to know only to find out that it was too early for him.

Henna looked at Jerry "Traffic" she said lightly and it was the truth, she couldn't lie to him otherwise he would know she was throwing out a big fish story. The traffic on the buses had been terrible. She grabbed the beers, for the business men and waited for Jerry's response.

Jerry sighed, and continued serving, "All right. Get those beers out there, Dragonfly." He flipped some more bottles, serving those in need. He noted who his patrons were, and told stories and listened based on their needs. It was going to be a long night of drowning sorrows, he thought to himself. In the Big City everyone who came to the Blue Moon was trying to drown some wretched aspect of their life, hiding it by the alcohol induced smile. Jerry painted his own smile back on, despite the frustrations of the night.

Integra came in through the back door from the alley. She went to the locker room and changed. When she was changed she walked through the hallway, and noticed Ella out the corner of her eye. She stopped, but didn't look knowing that Alex was there, she didn't want to see him. "Tell Jerry it's done," she said and left to home where she could relax and forget about the night's details.

"Wait integra!" Ella shouted trying to stop Integra from leaving but it was useless. Integra already left. She simply stood there and looked at Alex then looked at the path where Integra left.
"I hope you'll learn to understand, Alex." She said softly before again leaving him alone and going to Jerry.
She puts back her wig and mask on. She approaches Jerry at the Bar counter and tells him softly so only he can hear.
"Humming bird and Firefly are back but it seems that it didn't go well for Humming bird. Anyway, he's outside while left and Firefly went home. I think..." She paused then looked at Jerry with worryfull eyesbefore she continued. "you should go talk to him. I'll take care of everything here. I'm alright now."

Integra unlocked the door to the all too quiet apartment and went straight to her bedroom. She flopped down on her bed and laid down, drifting to an uneasy sleep with Alex's masked face flashing in her mind.

Henna nodded and grabbed the beers. She made her way to the table and said "There are your drinks." and then made her over to the next table, to the next, which seemed like there was an infinite amount of tables. And thank god she was wearing comfortable heels, becuase there was so much walking around, but it didn't matter she was a special girl, there was no way she was going to get blisters later.

((There are comfortable heels!? Maybe I'll start wearing them...okay, back in character))
Jerry's smile left, "I'll talk to him. Thanks for taking over, Butterfly. And watch Dragonfly; she's being crafty." He grinned, winked, and went into the back.
"Alex, with me." Jerry picked up Alex by his collar and picked him off the ground until they were out the back door and in the alley. "I hear you had problems. I have an issue with people knowing the trade of my girls when they seem to have an issue with it. We'll start with civil words: what's wrong, kid?" Jerry put a hand under Alex's chin, forcing the boy to look him in the eyes. Alex could smell Jerry's minty breath, and could feel simply the presence of the bartender pressing him against the wall.

Integra woke up from her sleep, startled, someone was pounding on the door. She sat up and walked slowly to the door. On the way, she took a knife from the kitchen, just in case. On her way to the door, the pounding stopped, she heard a few neighbors yelling at whoever it was for causing such racket in the night. She looked out the peep hole and saw no one was there, she slowly opened the door, tightening her grip on the knife.
She poked her head out and looked up and down the hallway, nobody was around, and she looked at the door, there was a note attached. She took the note and closed the door quietly and locked all the locks. She set the knife on the kitchen counter and went to the couch and opened the note.
"I know what you are, what you do," Integra gasped. What should she do? Running back to the club to warn Jerry would be unwise, she grabbed her phone and called Jerry. There was no answer. She tried again, he didn't pick up.
"He must be busy," she groaned as she called a third time and left a message when he didn't pick up. She curled up on the couch next to the phone, scared. "You better hurry and call back," she said to the phone.
((100 posts!! Woo! Go us! biggrin ))

Ella was serving then Henna approached her with an annoyed look. She gave her a piece of paper saying it was from a customer. She opened it and it said in large print letters.
"I KNOW WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU DO."
After reading she instantly closed the paper and looked around. All of the customers were wearing a mask. She tried to remain calm and continued making the drinks for Henna to pick up when she returns.
