Grim Matchstick

"S-S-Sorry, sir." The dragon spoke. "You can't b-b-bring that in with you. Safety first."

"But I won't blast it in there!" The "sir" in question was a hot tempered, little red rabbit, sporting a mechanical paw on his right nub. "I may look like a loose cannon, but I've been changin', laddie!"

"It's not that I d-d-don't trust you." Grim Matchstick replied, smiling. "It's just that a-a-accidents can happen, right?"

"Ugh...Yeah. You're right." The rabbit handed over the foot, mumbling about how he wouldn't cause any accidents.

"Thank you, s-s-sir!" Grim stuttered happily. "Now have a nice st-t-tay!"

"I'm hopin' to...Just don't scuff that thing! I went through a lotta trouble to get it." The rabbit replied, as he waddled into the main area.

As the customer departed, Grim safely stored the metal paw on a shelf. It wouldn't be lonely; Surrounding it was a party's worth of swords, guns, and magical items.
Entrapta

"Lucky!" The bartender...bartendress?...waved an enormous lavender ponytail towards the rabbit as he drew near. "Same thing, right?"

"Nah, lassie." The rabbit sighed, his tone downbeat. "Had it rough this week, I did."

"Oh." Entrapta's peppy mood was undamaged. "Want something bubbly?"

"Yeah, sure. And put lime in it. Lime helps me."

Obediently, Entrapta's two ponytails split into eight, grabbing a variety of drink ingredients.

If you were backstage, you would hear someone playfully hiss to you, "Everyone, wrap up your rehearsals! The show's about to start!"

The backstage manager is a Sylveon, one who seems taller than the average Ribbon Pokémon. The pink parts of her coat are much redder, too. And, yes, those are sparkly star stickers in her fur. "Pain for the art", she claims.

As she stepped onto the stage, she split the curtains with her ribbons as easily as Moses parted the Red Sea. "Gooooood evening, everyone! We love seeing such a great turnout every night!" Her voice rose high above the crowd, like a lion's roar. "But I, personally, get even happier to see so many young men and women preparing to share their talents! Please, sit back, get your favorite refreshments, and enjoy tonight's stylings!" She backed into the curtains gracefully, before whirling around to face whoever wanted to perform first. "You're on, whoever you are!"

(Oh, and here is a simple map of the place)

Laura


"Ugh...", you would hear a loud groan as an armored woman walked into the entrance, skipping the bouncer area. Laura was her name, and villainy is her game.
If you have known this woman by first glance, you might think she's an ordinary teenage girl, think again, she's evil...
Using her powers, she teleported from the entrance to the inside in the darkness, avoiding lights.
Her helmet came off like an automatic door,"looks like hell tonight, aw damn..."she rubbed her face with her gloved hands, if the bouncers were on her tail, she wouldn't even have noticed.
She sat at the bar and said a simple sentence,"I don't drink, just gimme ice water and I'm happy...", in a sort of raspy, dark, evil voice. She been up all night with her job, and she didn't sleep in the morning either.Afterwards, she heard the shouts from the stage,"aw hell no... I hate singing.", her helmet closed up, and her face was no where to be seen. Laura got up, and left the bar and hid behind the arcade machines with her powers, the only thing you could see behind them was a very creepy smile with a curvy bodied shadow.
 
"Yo, Finny." Finn's agent spoke, "Here's your stop." As Finn got out, and walked up to the Bouncer, he spoke, "I'm here for Open Mic, may I go in?"
 
Inside the alleged Club stood a figure who was no stranger to areas such as this. In fact, one could almost make the argument that he was a regular to areas such as this. Though, to be one-hundred percent and perfectly honest, he was certainly used to areas with much more.... action.

"Jeeeezus fuck, this place could really use some livening up!" Angel Dust, one of Hell's most prominent and astute pornstars, groaned out as he shifted around the couch he'd been laying on for the past half-hour. "I mean... the shows suck ass, there ain't no fuckin' drugs.... hell, there ain't even good booze!" He complained with a whine as he just kinda... rolled off the couch and onto the floor. "What happened to the days when you could just walk into a bar and get greeted by some Asian chick snortin' cocaine outta some old guy's asshole? Is that so much to ask!?" He complained further, throwing up all four of his arms to further illustrate how downright annoyed he was by his current situation.

That is, until he heard a shifting behind one of the cabinets.

Now, Angel Dust was by no means a stranger to supernatural powers by any means of the word. So, when he'd heard some freak lady shift behind the arcade cabinet, he decided to finally have some fun. So, being the general asshat that he was, Angel Dust simply nonchalantly strolled on over to the cabinet Laura had hid behind, casually whistling as he did so.

450


"Ah geez... ya know, I could'a sworn that I'd dropped my wallet somewhere over here!" Angel Dust exclaimed with a snicker. As he feigned looking for his wallet by placing one of his four hands over his two eyes, he casually rose his leg, and gave the arcade machine a good KICK! Hopefully, if it had done what he wanted it to, the machine in question would have been sent backwards, before slamming into Laura, and perhaps even pinning her against the wall.

"What does that freak think he's... Argh!"just as she predicted, she was squished. Laura crawled out of a shadow and appeared in front of the four armed freak,"what on earth were you thinking, I was hiding ya crud...", she muffled in her armor. "You do that again, you're dead, freak!"

Entrapta
(Feat. Lucky, at the bar)
"It's the craziest thing, Lassie." Lucky, knowing full well that Entrapta was just floating about in her own world, resigned himself to venting anyway. "I was dreamin' that I was lettin' meself be taken prisoner by two blue guys in a military base...Protectin' some fox girl, too."

"Ooh, were the blue guys winning?" Of course, the only responses Lucky would get were just childish questions.

"Shit if I know." The rabbit replied with a huff. "All I know was that I couldn't lift a nub. Maybe it's me usual drink..."

"It would be a fun thing to experiment on~!" Entrapta suggested cheerfully.

"No!" Lucky whined. "No more experiments! Find another guinea rabbit!"

"Not you, you already drink this stuff." Entrapta laughed, mixing up Lucky's usual. "I'm gonna see if I can get the same dreams!" She flicked Lucky's actual order towards him as she watched Laura enter.

"Hi!" Entrapta began a rapid fire response to all her inquiries. "It's pretty typical like this, actually. You left your weapons at the door, right?...Oh, You don't have to sing!"

"Thank God..." Lucky interjected.

"Ice water? Coming right...Up? Hm." Laura had vanished to the arcade machines. "Watch the mixer for me, Lucky!" Entrapta heaved herself into the air by her ponytails and slid to the shadow.

"Not that I have the energy to do much else..." Lucky uttered, tasting his drink while looking nervously at his usual. "If you're the one causin' those humiliating dreams of mine, I will never order you again. Got that?" He scolded the lone glass.

"Oh, yes, of c-c-course!" The dragon chortled. "B-b-better get a move on. Sierra hates it when performers are l-l-late!
The Explorer The Explorer
Entrapta, Again
(Feat. Laura and Angel Dust)
"Excuse me!" Entrapta slithered close to Laura's shadow. "You left your drink behind." She thrusted the glass in front of her. "You shouldn't order and then leave like that. We don't like to waste foooWOAAAAA!" Somebody kicked the machine, sending her head over ponytails!

"What was that for?" She miserably asked Angel Dust, brushing broken glass out of her hair. "You're supposed to use coins...Trust me. I've tried alternate forms of activation."

Oh, and back at the bar, Entrapta's other customer was stifling laughter.

"Oh really? I'll be dead?" Angel Dust taunted with a smirk as he leaned forward, bouncing his shoulders up and down for added effect. " 'Cus, and I hate to break it to ya toots, but I'm already dead. So, if you killed me, I'd just go back to Hell, then march my happy little ass right he fuck back up here, and then I'd probably kick your ass." Angel Dust mused, before turning to face the chick who'd decided to approach him. "Oh, it's nothing. Just thought I saw a rat behind the cabinet, but I think I got it." He said, all while continuing to smirk in the shadow lady's direction.

Entrapta
(Feat. Angel Dust, at the arcade machines)
"A rat!?" Entrapta stiffened. "Oooh, thanks for telling me! Rats are so cute...but we're not supposed to have them in here!" She weaved her ponytails all around the area. "Here, rat-rat-rat-rat...Oh, you said you were from Hell, right? My regular has been there, too! I bet you both saw the same things!" She flicked a hair strand back to Lucky, whose attention had gone back to his drink.

Ryo is in the car as he is on his way to the club to prepare for his first job other than working as a hired gun, a bouncer. "Man, I hope I won't screw anything up." Ryo thought nervously.

Finally, he made it to the club with nothing else to start with at the moment as he is waiting for someone to give him orders.

Grim Matchstick
(Feat. Ryo, in the lobby)
As he finished tidying up the weapons storage, Grim's big dragon ears picked up on a car rumbling to a stop outside. The new guy? The new guy!

"H-h-hello!" Grim bounded up to meet Ryo. "I'm g-g-glad you made it safely. The club is thriving!"

Grim Matchstick
(Feat. Ryo)
"Don't worry, the job is s-s-simple!" The dragon wagged his tail, ushering Ryo to the rather dusty desk across from his. "S-s-sorry about the mess. The last girl who worked here...She kinda...You could say that someone put an end to her whole career." He twiddled his claws together. "Anyway, you just n-n-need to check g-g-guests for weaponry, and, if they have it, p-p-put it in that closet."

Aqua

Every once in a while, even Aqua needed a break from Kazuma's antics and his friends. It was a darn good thing she learned of a certain place and kept it a secret to herself. She kicked open the doors, staff in hand. She noticed the two bouncers, one regular looking man and a green dragon. Huffing her chest, she proudly shouted, "It is I, Aqua! Yes, the object of worship for the Religious Order of Axis: the goddess Aqua!" while attempting to walk straight past the bouncers.

Pavel cautiously walked towards the bar's entrance, holding Tektite in his arms, who's nervous shaking increased as Pavel got closer. Ever since that day, he was trying to get back home. To his world. But it was always pointless, considering he doesn't even know where to even start. He can hardly remember how long he'd been gone, but it must've been well over a few months.

He and Tektite were coming from an abandoned spaceship, which had crashed a long time ago. They had stayed there for a good while, until Pavel finally decided to try finding his friends, much to Tektite's dismay. They had traveled for several days, encountering many creatures and beings both good and bad. Pavel was already stressed but Tektite must've had a panic attack at least 7 times.

When they had eventually arrived at the bar, Pavel thought that this was his way back to humanity, but didn't show his internal glee as he was also shocked. He stared at the entrance for a few minutes before finally looking down at Tektite to say, "This just might be the break we've been looking for, my friend."

Tektite didn't respond. All it did was stare at him in total fear, shivering, as expected.

And so, Pavel entered the bar as Tektite began to grip harder around his chest and breathing heavily. It was beginning to panic, so Pavel took out a dog toy, which was his dog Nova's, from his bookbag. He somewhat calmed Tektite by using the toy and reminding it of the breathing exercises he taught it. Though it was still nervous, it was an improvement. It hugged Pavel less tightly as it squeezed the toy repeatedly like a stress ball.

Once that was over, Pavel adjusted the way he was holding Tektite. "Uuf! Gee, I think you might be getting heavier!" He exclaimed.

He then began to notice the desks and people at the entrance.

-------------------------------
Beguile was laying on his back on one of the desks in front of the entrance. In his hands was a Gameboy which he had stolen from some sweaty guy who came in earlier and couldn't stop talking about Pokémon. God, was he obnoxious. What a geek.

He didn't want to play Pokémon, but he managed to steal a Tamagotchi cartridge from the same guy, so that was nice. He was beginning to get super bored.

He was aware of the people coming in, but he could care less. He just kept playing his game.
 
Grim Matchstick
"Ab-b-bout the girl, or...?" Grim's eager ears tipped forward, only to be startled backwards by the newcomers. "Oh! H-h-hello!" He waved. "Welcome to C-c-club Menagerie! Oh, Ryo, be careful, you might c-c-come on to strong..." While Ryo handled Aqua, Grim took the others upon himself.

"I'm af-f-fraid we have a strict 'no weapons' p-p-policy, so please hand over any weap-p-pons you might have." He was a little surprised when Pavel dragged something from his bag, only to sigh in relief when the thing turned out to be a dog toy. "Oh, you can k-k-keep that! Of course!"

GeorgeTownRaja GeorgeTownRaja Yamperzzz Yamperzzz
 
Pavel half had a heart attack when he saw this large talking dragon at around the desks. How did he not notice it was there before? Tektite also responded by increasing the rate at which it was squeezing the toy, making lots of loud squeaking noises.

"'No weapons...?'" Pavel was hesitant on relinquishing his only way of defending himself. Without his pistol, he'd only be able to either fight with his fists, or go Manic. He's not very strong and he doesn't know any sort of martial arts. And, of course, he wouldn't want to go Manic...

Then again, he didn't want to be seen as a threat, and he understood that this was probably an establishment that just wanted to keep their patrons safe. So, he placed Tektite on the floor and grabbed his backpack.

"I-I have a laser pistol, in this bag. Do you want me to take it out myself or..." He quickly added, "It's not currently loaded."

---------------------------------
Meanwhile, while Beguile was playing on his Gameboy, he glared at Pavel and that gross looking blue thing when it began making lots of squeaking noises. He was fighting the urge to run over there and karate chop the back of both their necks.

Aqua smirked upon hearing the bouncer's flirt. "I know! I am a goddess, after all!" she said, as if it wasn't heard enough. Swinging her staff over her neck, Aqua took a step to the bar for a drink, but froze when she laid eyes on a certain Angel Dust. Slowly turning her head to the bouncers with a twitching smile, she muttered, "You... allow demons to wander free here?"

Grim Matchstick
(Feat. Ryo, in the lobby)
Ohohoho, Grim knew that question would come! He laughed, his hands on his hips.

"Element-t-tary, my dear! We are the exception. You can k-k-keep your gun." Suddenly, the dragon began to puff himself up, covering the overhead lights with his wings to make himself appear as the shadow of some primal being, who once walked so Grim could stutter. "If that f-f-fails..." Everyone had the length of that ghostly hiss to take cover.

What sounded next was a cacophony of stretching skin across the dragon's shoulders, as his shoulders split into vertebrae with only a slight pain. Nostrils opened up on either side of the seething Grim's neck, followed by pairs of teeth, then closed eyes, before the growths shot out and craned their necks. One by one, the two new dragons opened their eyes, surveying everyone in the lobby like a pair of vultures. On Grim's silent cue, the three heads threw themselves backwards, spewing thick flames that rolled like the red carpets leading a conceited man down to the underworld. Their combined roar shook pencils off the desks, made the doors clatter, and even created an earthquake in the main dining area. None of the three heads would close their jaws until the last ember was pushed out.

In stark contrast to how slow the transformation was, the rewind was as quick as a bunny...well, not that quick. The people would still have to listen to Grim's bones reforming as the heads melted back into his skin. "...That happens!" He finished joyfully.

Fortunately, the staff of Club Menagerie had learned from the last time Grim demonstrated, and the room had been coated in flame retardant.

Sierra
"It's a most unusual daaaaAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Sierra had just been wrapping up a solo when the quake struck, spilling her over in sync with many patrons' glasses...including Lucky's.
Entrapta
"Damn it all!" The rabbit pouted, slamming both nubs on the table. "I was enjoying that lime!"

Entrapta, who had also been knocked onto her tummy, was immediately as guilty as if she was the one to roar. "Sorry, Lucky! I'll get you a new one! If I can just..." In the confusion, however, she had gotten tangled around the legs of the claw machine.
 
Pavel noticed the stuttering dragon seemingly puffing up and getting larger, as if in a threatening manner. Tektite was beginning to act uneasily. So did Pavel.

They watched as the dragon gradually sprouted two more heads from its shoulders, accompanied by stretching noises from its scaly skin. It looked incredibly painful and unnatural. At this point, Tektite wrapped around Pavel's legs and began squeezing the toy once more, this time faster than before. It looked extremely threatening.

Once the extra heads were formed, they watched the room for a short time before throwing their heads back to creating towering flames across the room. Of course, Tektite began to panic, but also did Pavel. He quickly grabbed Tektite and dropped them behind him to try to protect them. Though, the flames weren't close to touching them.

On top of that, the ground began to shake, causing items on the desks to fall off. Tektite eventually couldn't handle it anymore and squeezed the toy so hard that it burst with a loud pop, resulting in Tektite screaming and burying its head in its body, covering the top of its head with its upper tentacles. It was shaking like a leaf. Meanwhile, Pavel just remained close to Tektite and remembered his calming exercises to avoid going Manic.

When they were done, and the dragon's extra heads retreated back into its body and returned to its regular state. Pavel then realized that this was a warning, although he wished that it didn't show it in that way. Now it'll take forever to get Tektite back out. He picked it back up and just quietly said, "Uh, OK. You can do that. Good to know..."

-----------------------------------
When he heard growling and threatening and the sound of skin stretching, Beguile knew what this was. He was around when this happened last time.

He immediately stood up and ran out of the room shouting profanities, and into the main dining room. When it last happened, he brought his own video games to play with, and they ended up destroyed. He didn't want his stolen Gameboy to suffer the same fate.

When he ran into the main dining hall, the ground began shaking violently, causing him to trip and fall. He faceplanted onto the floor as he accidentally threw his Gameboy across the room.

"Wait... Did you say from hell?.. You look really familiar to me...", she said rubbing her hand on her chin, but it wasn't the same villain she had in her dimension"and you can't be killed? Very well then, klutz... If there was a rat, it must've been scared of me already, I'm evil.", Laura sneered with an evil laugh.

"Will you stop smirking at me? Ugh, come on stop it...", her helmet opened up and she took her hood off,"heesh it's hot in here?"

Soon enough, she felt the ground shaking, the helmet pooped up immediately and she face planted on top of the spider,"tell me that was you...",soon she saw a game boy fly across the room. In an instant, she quickly slithered in her shadow form off the spider and caught it, and gave it to its owner."sir, ya dropped this, ya ok?"

"I see..." Ryo said as he doesn't care what they have to say other than trying to get the job done. "Is that all?" He asked.

"Demons?" Ryo asked Aqua curiously. "Are you a cult fanatic or something?" He asked as he wasn't sure what Aqua is saying are true.

Beguile was still recovering from his fall when Luara approached him. He was sure his face got stuck on the floor for a moment before he finally hoisted himself above the ground a little bit with his elbows. He was embarrassed that someone saw him.

"Of course I'm fine... Gimme that!"

He quickly stood up and snatched the Gameboy from her hands. He didn't want anybody touching it but him, he worked hard to steal that! But, he also wanted to make sure that he had everything under control so that he could somewhat recover from that humiliation. As a result, he quickly changed his hostile demeanor and cleared his throat.

"Uh... Thanks..."
