"He looks like a serial killer, I'm fuckin' out!" I hissed to Bra

"Hey Skull, this is me little sister. Her eighteenth was a few weeks ago. I thought I'd bring her to watch the fight and get her first alcoholic drink as an adult," Bra

"She knows the rules of the club?" he questioned.

Bra

Skull nodded his head at Bra

"Tell John to stamp the both of you for free drinks," Skull called after us.

Bra

Skull.

My God, his name was actually Skull.

My sweating over my nerves of being rejected passed and instead, fear pricked at me as Bra

"They must be horrible to walk up when you're drunk," I voiced my thought aloud when I looked down to the steps.

"They are," Bra

When we reached the bottom of the stairs, there were two huge black doors. They were closed and in front of them stood two huge bouncers.

"H-Hi." I smiled when they looked at me and Bra

"Skull said for you to stamp us, John," Bra

The man on my right chuckled, so I guessed him to be John. "You have Skull in ribbons when you show off those pretty legs of yours, Bra

Bra

John snorted and said, "Yeah, right."

They nodded to us then, and I noticed Bra

Free was stamp across my wrist in thick black ink. The bouncer who stamped me picked up my other wrist and stamped it with a different stamp. When I glanced at my left wrist, Darkness was stamped on my skin in the same thick black ink.

I held my hands out for a few seconds not wanting to smudge the ink, but I found it practically dried straight away so I didn't have to worry.

"Have fun in the Darkness ladies," John said with a grin and pushed on the side of the double doors.

I jumped when pounding music filled my ears. It frightened me, the stairway and door area was deathly quiet until the doors opened up into the club. They were seriously soundproof, because when they were closed you honestly couldn't hear a thing outside.

Bra

I ducked my head and huddled closely to Bra

"This place is an epileptic's worst nightmare," I shouted to her.

I felt the vibrations of her body, indicating she was laughing, but I couldn't hear her because of the music that was currently blaring into my ear drums. I once again huddled close to Bra

The strobe lights made everything look crazy. It was like I was daydreaming and everything was happening in slow motion. Bra

I leaned into Bra

Bra

"That, my darlin' baby sister, is where girls soak their knickers at the mere sight of big, bad, scary men."

I felt the blood drain from my face.

"Is this a sex club?" I shouted, horrified.

Bra

I leaned back and stared at Bra

"A real fight club? Like in the film Fight Club?" I questioned, my eyebrows raised.

Bra

"Bronagh, how many times do I have to tell you? You don't talk about fight club," Bra

I rolled my eyes. "I don't know if I'm comfortable with this."

Bra

I nodded. "Okay."

Bra

I gaped at Bra

Bra

I didn't talk to anybody so I wouldn't have anyone to tell even if I wanted to, but I still nodded firmly. I couldn't believe my big sister brought me to a nightclub that condoned illegal acts. It was freaky, scary, and sort of exciting at the same time.

"So, what do we do here?" I shouted.

Bra

"We drink, dance, watch hot lads fight, and have a hell of a good fuckin' time," Bra

I burst out laughing, thank God she remained my sister once she became my guardian. It would have been horrible if she completely fell into the role of being my mam and dad. I would literally have no one to introduce me to anything wild, and I would certainly have no one to do stupid stuff with me.

"I've never drank before so what will I order-"

"I ordered you a bottle of blue WKD already, it's just an alcopop. Don't want you legless leavin' here with me." Bra

I shrugged; I trusted her so blue WKD it was.

"Okay."

When the bartender came back with a glass full of bright blue liquid and what looked like a glass of Coke I licked my lips. Bra

"How come we got the Free stamp?" I leaned in and asked Bra

She smiled. "I used to have a thing with Skull, but that was forever ago. Now he goes out with Aideen Collins."
