Chapter one.
 
Ryo walked in to his working place through the main entrance. He was greeted by the sight of dinner guests leaving to make room for the clubbers who where already waiting to get inside for a night full of fun.
 
Ryo shed his coat on his way to one of the two bars in the club. Even before he reached the bar he was glomped by someone from behind. But it wasn't difficult to tell who it could be since there was only one of the people who worked with him who even wanted to talk to him freely.
 
“Hey Cutie! How have you been?” The woman asked as she pecked him on the cheek and went to stand in front of him.
 
“Hello Diana. I've been as usual, you know how it is. So how was your trip?” they walked to a small changing room behind the bar.
 
“Oh it was great. It was so nice to be away from here for a while. I really wish you had come. You really need to get away from here sometime.”
 
“I wouldn't have minded at all but Rose said he could not possibly let his two top workers of for two weeks at the same time.”
 
“Yeah right. He's just afraid I would try and seduce you. He's so simple minded sometimes.” She got a wicked gleam in her eyes and smirked looking at Ryo. She leaned over and placed her mouth just by Ryo's ear.
 
“He doesn't get that I could try that even if we where here.” She puffed a little air in his ear for more effect her lips barely touching the ear. Ryo blushed profusely at that. Diana laughed at him then.
 
“Cute, I love making you blush like that. It's adorable.”
 
“Please I wish you wouldn't do that. You know I'm not interested in you that way.” Looking embarrassed Ryo tied the short apron around his waist and they went out to prepare everything for the night.
 
“Oh I know but I still want to see that blush sometimes. Just because I can't have you doesn't mean I can't enjoy it. Ne?” She winked at him. Ryo only nodded while opening the door and stepping through it just to bump in to a body of a slightly smaller man.
 
“Umph. Hey watch where you are going you oaf. Jeez, could you at least try to pay some attention. Hmpf.” JJ barked annoyed at Ryo and proceeded to push past him. Ryo just ignored him and walked on. Diana looked at JJ with an irritated look before following Ryo to the bar but not before hearing JJ mutter irritably to himself.
 
“Man I really don't get how that boring and oh so annoying guy can be the masters favourite. He's never downstairs playing and he doesn't ever,,,” The rest of his tirade was lost to Diana as the door slid closed.
 
“Hey why do you keep letting him be so rude to you? I mean He'll never stop if you don't say so.”
 
“Leave him be Diana. He's just insecure of himself. He's well aware that he isn't one of Roses top people and being the most resent of us, he needs to get a confidence boost from somewhere.” Diana frowned at that.
 
“Okay and does that really have to be on your expense? `sigh' Well let's get to work.” She continued when she received no answer.
 
They placed all clean glasses on the shelves and checked the ice-machine so it worked properly they got backup bottles of the major selling brands so they needn't run away so much to get new ones during the night.
 
The bar they worked in was one of two. They where placed at opposite walls of the big club. One bar was Wine-red with black shelves and the other was black with wine-red shelves. The whole club went in the same colours. Soon the club was filled with people and requests for drinks came from all over.
 
As Predicted the club was busy all night and allot of the regulars brought the VIP's to the VIP rooms. Ryo felt kinda sorry for the VIP's for he knew they would not se the sun rise again and probably not the moon either. The VIP door led to a stairwell for the upper floors of the building. But there was a secret passage at the back of the stairwell that opened up to a stairway leading down into a large two-floor cellar. And what went on down there was something Ryo never wanted to think of.
 
The full moon brought in the people Ryo and Diana called the full moon pack. They were regulars who only showed up during the three nights of the full moon cycle. The nights when they weren't quite themselves so to speak.
 
The regulars at this club had the right to buy VIP passes in the bars and then they would give it to people they saw fit for it. They always signed the passes so the bouncers knew who had invited them. The reasons may vary from person to person as to why they give a pass to someone, but they all had the same goal in mind. A night of playing and bloodshed.
 
Some chose to give passes to very attractive people, others to the feisty kind of people, some went for the innocent look. They where always notified by the bouncers as to when someone came in with a pass with their particular signature on. They would then find them and in most cases seduce them and lure them down to the cellar floors. Never to return, at least not in the same shape they went down there.
 
At about 6:00am the place was about empty and Ryo was drying the dishes since the last order had been called ten minutes ago. While he was doing that Diana was picking up at the tables. Ryo was tired and just wanted to go home and sleep all day just to wake up and come here for another packed night.
 
A man clearing his throat lightly in front of him startled him. He raised his head and his eyes locked with a set of green eyes staring intently at him.
 
“Hi sorry for disturbing you in your work at this early hour. I'm Dee Laytner from the 27:th precinct. I'm investigating a murder-case. Would you mind if I asked you a couple of questions?”
 
**~**~**~**
 
Dee Laytner was out in the early morning investigating a crime-scene with his partner Drake. They where in an alley where the mutilated body of a young male had been found. It was a disgusting site to se. The face of the man seemed to be the only thing intact on his entire body. His clothes where mostly gone a ripped button up shirt was al there was. His entire abdomen was shredded and there where what seemed like bite-marks all over. Where the wounds where at the worst you could actually see some of the intestines.
 
His one arm was missing, ripped right off it seemed. His legs where cut and bruised with big flesh-wounds all over, It was apparent he had been raped to some extent according to the scratches around his groin and the teeth-marks on the genitals. There was also what they believed to be semen in the victim's mouth. Though it was obvious this was just a dumping site as there was no blood in the alley but only dried on the body.
 
They had been there for two hours now and the coroner came to bring the body to autopsy. It was not the first of this kind of murder but they never seemed to get solved. Suddenly these cases where just removed from all files but nobody ever knew of any arrests or nothing. Or so they claimed.
 
“What do you think of it Dee?” Drake turned a slightly pale face to his raven-haired partner.

“I think I want to find the bastard who did this and rip his intestines out and feed him with them, see how he likes it.” Dee said with a disgusted look. He was extremely cranky for being pulled out right when he was supposed to go home and get some sleep. After a shift of 15 hours already anyone would be cranky at this hour.
 
But this murder seemed to fit the descriptions of others found as of late so the chief wanted them on the case. It was the same brutal slaughter as the earlier times and always an unharmed face. It was now two women and two men. All young, beautiful and with some kind of mark in their faces. This man had a small birthmark under his right eye.
 
“Yuck. That's gross Dee. Should we question the girls who found him?” Drake pointed towards two girls who where sitting by police cars with a blanket over their shoulders.
 
“Yeah lets do that. Damn I really wanted to get some serious sleep tonight but oh no, I have to work because a killer never rests huh? So let's get to the girls so I can have a smoke.” They walked out of the marked out area and Dee pulled out a cigarette.
 
“Those things will kill you one of these days. I swear it. “ Dee gave him an annoyed look.
 
“Like I never heard that one before. But they're too good to give up. You give me something else to wind down of and I'll gladly quit.” Drake snorted slightly not quite believing his words.
 
They reached the girls who sat and shivered while a doctor spoke to them and gave them a number for a psychologist to talk to if they needed it. When the doctor saw them he left to let them talk.
 
“Hello ladies I'm detective Laytner and this is detective Parker. Do you think we could ask you some questions.” The girls nodded and turned their attention to the handsome men in front of them.
 
“How did you come to find this man at this hour?”
 
“Well We where on our way home from The club down the block and we thought we'd take a shortcut through this alley. That saves 10 minutes walking time. And well I tripped over something. We took my mobile phone to light up so we could se what it was I tripped over. And there he was.” The girl explained while her friend sniffled.
 
“So you didn't see anything strange around here, no people in the alley or people leaving the alley?”
 
“No but I did se that guy early tonight, he was at the same club as us. We got there to eat dinner early before we met our friends to party all night. He was hard to miss when it was still so relaxed with people.” Dee and drake immediately perked up at hearing this.
 
“You saw him? Are you really sure it was the same guy? Was he alone or did he have company?” Now Dee was much more awake, this might help them more than anything in the other cases.
 
“Yeah it was him all right, that birthmark is just the same. He was with this guy who scowled a whole lot. I was dancing near them and tripped so I bumped in to them. He asked me if I was all right and helped me stand again, but the scowling guy pulled him away from me and looked annoyed. Then I didn't see them anymore. I guess the reason I really noticed them was that I found them both to be very attractive.”
 
“Okay. What's the clubs name? Is it the one down the block there?” Drake took notes the whole time. The girls gave a description of the man the dead guy was with. A tall guy with Reddish brown hair, clear blue eyes and very muscular with a pointy chin.
 
They took the girls info so they could contact them again. Now they had a person to search for who might be a potential killer or key witness. They made shore the girls got a ride home and then they left to go to the club in question.
 
“There it is. The Demon's Den. What's up with that name? They said it was a very popular club that's supposed to be packed every weekend and sometimes during weekdays.” They parked and got out of the car.
 
“Yeah, well that name is one you don't forget so easily. Looks like they're about closing. The bouncers aren't by the door. Let's do this.” Dee said and pushed the doors open. Inside there was only about 50 people left and many where about to dress up and leave. They saw a bouncer push a very drunk guy out of the club.
 
“Well where to start, I go to the bar and begin there.” Dee stalked away from Drake, who stayed put only to be startled by a female voice behind him.
 
“Excuse me sir can I help you? You are a little late we're closing you know.” She smiled gently at him.
 
“Yeah I know. I'm Detective Parker from the 27:th precinct, I'm investigating a murder. Would you mind if I asked you a couple of questions?” The woman got a strange look on her face but it was gone before he could tell what it was.
 
“No not at all. Shall we perhaps sit down? By the way my name's Diana.”
 
 
Dee was currently standing in front of the bar waiting for the fair-haired bartender to notice him, which didn't seem to happen anytime soon. He had been drying the same glass for about two minutes now. He lightly cleared his throat and the bartender looked up and Dee was met by the darkest eyes had ever seen.
 
Catching himself staring he collected himself, he had an interview to do.
 
“Hi sorry for disturbing you in your work at this early hour. I'm Dee Laytner from the 27:th precinct. Would you mind if I asked you a couple of questions?”

Review answers.
 
Greenmeat: Why people are given the passes is partially explained in this chapter not in direct detail though. Same goes for the full-moon people. But more detailed answer will show up.
The name for the club was the hardest to figure out, I always have so much trouble making up names but it was due to a little brainstorming I had to myself. I hope it's a good name I choose in the end.
I'll go for mainly one update a week maybe two, if I put up more that's a bonus.
 
Ibj: Well In this chapter there are allot of clues as to the clientele of the club but again no specifics yet, though i think many can guess to some extent.
