Los Angeles may have looked like a glowing utopia, but underneath the megabuildings, the neon lights, and the Hollywood Sign, the city was as dirty now as it ever was.
Kameron Alualua liked it that way.
A gunmetal gray hovercar descended from the sky and approached Downtown. Easing its way between buildings that were so tall they touched the clouds, the craft drew closer to streets filled with pedestrians and self-driving cars.
Inside the hovercar, Kameron peered at the street cars through a bulletproof window. Poor bastards, he thought. While he was flying around like an angel, they were still bound to the earth. Real shame. There’s plenty of room up here. He chuckled to himself, for there was no one else inside the vehicle—no one made of flesh and bone, anyway.
“Arriving at Misty’s in 2 minutes, 30 seconds,” said the car’s computer. While Kam lounged in his cushy seat, sipping sparkling water from a glass, the computer did all the piloting for him. He took a long drink from his glass, emptying it, before looking at his reflection in the rear view mirror. Looking good as always. He smiled as he ran the tip of his index finger and thumb over his carefully trimmed beard.
The hovercar slowed its descent and then eased onto a landing pad, which was beside a parking lot for ground vehicles. With a press of a button, the left door swung upward, and Kam stepped out. Immediately, he took note of how full the lot was. Even the hovercar landing pads were all occupied, now that he had landed there.
Business is booming tonight, and it’s only Wednesday.
Kameron approached the strip club’s front door, leaving the smell of thruster fumes behind him. Above the door was a giant, blue-green neon light that told the world that this was Misty’s. The color of the sign reminded him of the waters of Aruba, where he had vacationed early this year. Two bouncers were stationed at the door, one on either side. Both of them were built like bruisers, which was what bouncers should be. Kam was taller than both of them, not as bulky, and likely quicker. He figured he could take them both if he wanted, but tonight he was on his best behavior.
“Good evening,” one of the bouncers said, a big smile on his face and a weapon detection wand in his beefy hand. “Sorry to have to do this, Sir, but we’re going to have to scan you.”
Dude looks like a boxer but talks like a customer service agent. He’s doing his job right, then. After I buy this place, I’ll be sure to keep him around.
“No problem,” Kameron said, a smile of his own appearing on his tanned face. “This isn’t my first time here, so I know the drill.” He lifted his arms a little and held them to his sides.
“Thank you, Sir.” The friendly bouncer waved the wand over Kam’s sides, legs, and arms, quick and easy. No weapons were detected, because he kept his guns in the car. “You’re good to go, Sir. Welcome to Misty’s.”
“Much appreciated.” The (possible) future owner of one of LA’s most popular strip clubs stepped through the red double doors.
Inside, the lights were dim, and hidden speakers blared hip hop music. The song that was playing was loud but slow. Kameron knew it and liked it—in fact, he had the album stored on his car’s computer. Feeling the groove, he bobbed his head to the music while he stopped by the lobby register to pay the cover charge.
“Hi, sweety,” said the woman who took his credit chip and processed his payment. She looked Japanese, was probably in her twenties, and was dressed in a delightfully short skirt and sleeveless shirt that was so small it may as well have been a bikini top. Her hair was long, black with lime green tips, and tied into a single ponytail. “Didja come here with someone in mind?” She checked him out and made no attempt to hide it. Kam could see the hunger in her eyes, which was a familiar sight.
Kam checked her out, too, just as brazenly. He imagined wrapping her ponytail around one of his hands and pulling on it while fucking her from behind. She was tiny, especially compared to him, so he’d probably break her. “Nah, no one in particular,” he answered. “I guess you can say I’m window shopping.” He grinned.
Lime Green giggled. It sounded genuine, but Kam knew better than to think it was. What I said wasn’t really funny.
“I’m on register duty tonight, as you can see, but I’m dancing tomorrow night. Think you can come back and do some more window shopping then?” She reached across the counter to straighten the lapel of his silver sports coat, which he knew didn’t need straightening.
He glanced at her hand, then back up to her face, his grin holding. “I won’t make any promises about tomorrow, but I expect to be here often. If I don’t see you dance tomorrow night, then I will later, I’m sure.”
“Okay, sweety. I’m Keiko. And I’d better see you in the audience sometime.”
“Oh, you’ll see me, all right. Later, Keiko.” Kameron stepped away without giving her his name.
He stepped through dark curtains and entered the actual strip club. The music, the scent of alcohol, and the promise of sin were all heavy in the room. No one was on the main stage at the moment, but both of the smaller side stages had girls dancing to the smooth hip hop. Kam spent a moment to appreciate both of the naked ladies before checking out the crowd. The place was packed, just as the full parking lot and landing pads suggested. There were colorful, scantily clad women mingling and flirting with the audience, as well as serving them drinks. A few of the strippers led some of the male clientele toward the private rooms in the back.
A beautiful, black dancer took the hand of someone who had a front row seat to the main stage and led him away for a private dance, if not more. Kam wasn’t about to let someone else snatch that primo seat, so he maneuvered past the tables, chairs, and bodies to make that seat his own.
Now comfortable in one of the best seats in the house, he waited for a waitress to stop by and take his order. More importantly, he waited to see who would take the main stage next.
