”And where would that be?” A question that would be answered in a few. It didn't take long for the limousine to return for the pick up. The young tomboy greeted the pair as she came to serve as their escort as she had done before. Back into the shadows of the vehicle full with vibrant red to illuminate with the soft radiant hues of light from the outside world. Where the vehicle was going on the the pair knew of. A route that was familiar to them as they gone down it several times over. A sense of joy in some perspective as the growing anxiousness was roused, wanting the time within the city to come to an end. A place that many of the new Bounts that came to Karakura would call home. Aura remained quiet throughout their drive, resting her eyes, very much steadying her own heart and mind.
So much was discussed over the course of the meal. What she thought were hours of talking, of catching up, turned to be nothing more than children squabbling. She couldn't really believe how it all turned out, let alone being in some ways unable to find the answers to her questions. Or maybe, she already did. Aura returned to who she once was. Regardless of the matter the Bount reverted back to her old self with the mind of a girl who just past adolescence. She didn't want to see herself in that light again, believing that she put it behind her. What Luke stated, what he pointed out, she had to admit he was right about it. Not openly of course considering none of the other Bounts heard a single thing as to what transpired there. To their knowledge this was merely to recruit another Bount. And that was all that they needed to know.
The city lights grew more dim the further along they traveled. Lights becoming weaker, less bright, only with the star lights above to accompany their travel. The city of Karakura was to be put behind them with their vehicle taking them towards the mountains. The outskirts of Karakura were consumed by the wild life of trees and a wide variety of mountains. A landscape that could be treacherous if one didn't know the landscape, especially at night. However, there were hiking routes for the family excursions, health enthusiasts, and for those that had a reason to go out to enjoy the woods. But that wasn't their reason for coming through such a route. No. They were going higher up in elevation, to the point that it was announced by the signs to be "private property." Soon the world of the Humans came to an end. A world that the Humans were blind to, beside the chosen few who were allowed to know. This is where the Covenant began its territory.
A road that branched off away from the main route was how they arrived to the path. The path that led up to the number of slopes elevating their own position, slowly to have the night life loom under their line of sight. Here resided the entry, the paved ground that served as the parking lot that rooted out to the carpeted walkway to the steel bunker gate. Cars lined up in organized rows thanks to the attendants that guided the visitors into their appropriate slots. Lining from the front off to the sides, these decorated fences had sharpened spikes at the tip of the ten foot tall bars. Stone columns served as posts, which altogether with the steel bars made the fence line that surrounded the front section of the entrance. Only a single path to get in, with the sides of the structure encased by the mountain itself. One way in, and one way out. This was where the trio was to be dropped off before the line of mixed dressed individuals. Among them not a single tank top was worn as it was decreed by their apparel requirements.
"Fukkatsu" was the name of the club. The word that translated to "Revive" in the English language. A bit cheesy in a way, but it suited for what the race wanted to accomplish in the end. Here the limousine halted, allowing the girl to take the lead and assisting Aura and their guest from out of the vehicle. Her shoes tapping onto the red carpet, cool mist seeping closely to the floor ankle high, and violet rays of light intertwined with the vibrant red clouding the sides. "This is what I wanted to show you, Mr Clyburn." Aura's tone shifted. What they had spoken of before, how she talked back then, completely shifted back to when they first laid eyes on each other. Back to the beginning of their reunion.
Five individuals monitored the front as Hosts, with an additional four serving as Security blending with that of the Hosts. The line of people waiting to check in, reviewing the list for reservations. One guard stepping forward to meet with the trio, his nature sticking out like a sore thumb from among all those around them. His reiatsu familiar in the sense that the pair had been around many of them of this night; a Bount. A single Bount standing as a Leader for the Staff outside, who lacked the reiatsu that he did. The rest of them were Humans, even those that were waiting for their time to enter the establishment. With a single nod he aided in their escort. Through the steel backs up toward the entry, the heavy bunker door remained propped open to only see the engulfing darkness that awaited them. A moment of darkness before the beats of the music came resonating throughout the structure of the walls and flooring.
The Bunker's main areas were established to be utilized for business. Every inch of stone was carved into, or out of to make full use of the sturdy material. This helped to cut costs when the Bounts moved in to create the environment they needed to add to create this club interior. Stone stairs that led into the lobby, setting a single U-Shaped bar to treat those who wanted to linger in a more relaxed setting. A sort of lounge serving light finger foods to satisfy some form of appetite. Here, over head, an additional two Bounts remained watching up in the catwalks that hung from the ceilings. The scent of Humans was strong here as much as the energy was of bouncing bodies that mosh pitted in the main room of the club, only divided by the walkway that nearly divided the room in half for the exotic dancers to prance down, and supported by the Djs at their rear. A stadium sized room that divided into individual segments with the dance floor at its center. A layout easier to see when they peered down from the second floor that the trio stood on.
Looking over the railing, Aura's own eyes saw the life that blended in here. A number of the younger Bounts danced, frolicked, jamming with the unsuspecting Humans that were around them. Several that blended to the far left corner at the food bar, sitting at the hubs and lounge tables. A glimpse beside the area filling another corner at the bar setup. A small walk to travel between the two, providing an open gap for people to run into each other, and possibly socialize. On the other side, towards the right side of the dance floors were cubicles meant to ease the mind and distance oneself from the crowds. Couches, beds, chairs, a way for the folks to really relax and have a small drink of wine with the assistance of their Servers. The two guards escorted Luke and Aura to where the Bount often spent her time. Walking down the second floor onto the overlooking catwalks, both men and women dancing, swinging themselves in suspended cages with Bounts and Humans showcasing their skills in their art. The line between the two races blurred heavily here.
Soon the group was to walk into an elevator, one designed for Staff. A glass elevator that showcased the depths of the large shaft, one that seemingly went down into the void below them. But that wasn't where they were heading off to. Not even close. Where they were going was to the administrative floor located on the fourth floor. Here Aura did much of her work when it came to business, when it came to the Human side of things. This is where she often took recruits before showing them the rest that resided below. Even after all this time Aura didn't say a word. She wanted to show Luke the possibility of what things can be like if given the time. A way for the Humans and the Bounts to live together if nurtured. For here, there was no one race. Aura didn't waste any time to escort Luke herself, away from her own guards to have them attend to their own duties. This Aura could manage on her own, leaving them only to themselves. A simple elevated walkway into the single double bronze door led the pair into Aura's office.
Fancy, that it mirrored that of Taka's. The Mod Soul always had good taste, but Aura fixed it a bit to make it her own. Her desk resided to the far side of them. A lounge set up at the center with couches and chairs. Shelves lined up to the left with an assortment of books, documents. And lastly a bed off in the far right corner, with a small pool beside them because she always wanted one. Here the two were to be left alone for them to talk freely, and undisturbed. Her hand brushed the hanging strands away from her backside to have the cool air wash over the exposed skin at the center. A means of air to help ventilate through her dress, and to remove some of the moisture from her hair. Her own steps waltzing over to the black couches at the center, "Water?" she offered first, waiting to see his reply to decide whether or not to seat herself, or to serve the water from a cooling unit. After that, "Welcome to the Citadel, Luke. At least the first portion of it..... What do you think?" she asked him.
