Dance of Travel
By Dien
The Alley was dark as a shadowy figure walked through the trash ridden, damp mess that was behind his line of employment. He opened the large door of the building as the loud thumps of the bass inside of the building couldn't have been stopped by the walls. With a large tug on the door it creaked and the figure walked right into the building as a loud clunk followed after him.
"What took you so long? You are on the stage in Ten Minutes!" a Tall Equine yelled at him. The Shadowy figured came to light and appeared to be a Large Fruit Bat, standing at about Five feet, nine inches tall, Roughly weighing at One hundred and thirty pounds, and his light brown fur covered his frame.
"Sorry Boss, The Water just got turned on at my apartment Twenty Minutes ago, and I really needed that shower after last night's Guest of honor..." The bat stated with disgust. He threw off his coat and headed over to the Locker room where the Equine followed him,
"I'm sorry for that, but he wanted you as he heard so much about you from his friends and seeing as he was investor in this estate, He gets what he wants and it isn't in my control." The Lithe bat began to undress out of his usual attire of a black shirt and matching Jeans. The Bat pulled out a small Leather Tank-top and matching pants and then looked at the Equine,
"How do I look?" he asked and did a small twirl.
"Looks Great Dien." The Equine replied and then added, "Now get on out there..."
The Equine gave a swat to the Bat's Rump as he walked out onto the stage. The Lights fade and...
Well let us go a bit further back...
Dien was the First born of his family and was one of two children of a loving couple. His father and mother learned all the mistakes of taking care of him and his sister got the better end of the deal as his parents didn't know what to do and learned from Dien's upcoming. He grew up rather quickly during his teen years and he kept to himself during Junior High as most individuals would mock him for what he would dress and how he would act. Most of the school mocked him for wanting to Dance and it seemed that everyone was out to get him. He went to all the school dances and enjoyed himself but he had his moments of being bullied but luckily his wings made for good use in running away. After a few years of running, and doing somewhat decent in classes, he made it to High School and with a sigh of relief was able to blend in with the background.
He joined a few interesting Clubs such as; Speech, Business Leaders, and even the Art club. The Four years in high school, he started to learn about himself and he began to realize about his preferences. He often found himself staring in Gym class and he has been caught a few times and has been hit for it a few times for it. He looked down in the hallways as multiple furs and humans mocked him for what he liked, and on top of that no one seemed to care. He would be alone just like in high school and found his only enjoyment and company from his clubs as people would do everything in their power to mock him and torment him. His Junior and Senior years he got smart and avoided the Cafeteria and the large collection of people who get their jollies from making others miserable. With due time, he graduated and headed his way into college, but due to the lack of money he found himself in a dire situation.
He looked high and low in the College city, and found that most places weren't hiring or not looking for someone his type. He sighed and started looking in the not noteworthy places, and found something that he could do that mixes his passions. He loved to dance and he had something he wanted to try. So he became a stripper, at the Strip Club out of city limits, so most students he would run into on campus wouldn't know him.
Back to where we left off...
The Lights faded and the Bat walked out onto the stage, grabbed onto the pole, and waved to the crowd as the spotlight was on him.
"Hello Gentleman..." he said in a sweet soft voice as his feet grasped the pole as he had feet that resembled hands. As He jumped up to the top and twirled down to the floor and did a slight spin around the Pole with his backside facing the audience as a few whistles and males yelling what they wanted to do to him. He gave it a small shake as he then moved down into the splits as he grabbed his tail showing off the tight leather pants that clung to his form. He then grabbed the pole, pushed himself back up onto his feet, then walked over to the far end of the stage, and reached out to one of the Tigers that were sitting in a group and rubbed the male's cheek before walking away, but swaying his hips to make the male enjoy him walking away. He goes to the far left, ruffles up an Otter's hair, and repeats what he did to the Tiger, but this time he stops in the middle of the stage and walks up through the catwalk as he noticed a male wasn't paying attention and was on the phone.
He smirked and then kneeled down behind the male and wrapped his arms around his frame and then spun him around to face him and whispered,
"The Show started hun." As he walked away again and then climbed back up the pole and then hung upside down with ease and then slid down slowly and pushed himself off the pole and landed on his feet as the lights cut out and he walked off the stage as a thunderous applause followed as he went back into the Locker room to grab a drink as this was going to be an interesting night as he was also schedule to go and mingle on the floor. He took a short break as the manager returned and smirked,
"Well I have a feeling you may get paid to go into a booth." The Equine stated and then pulled out a clipboard and already marked a few tables off,
"We have three People interested in you, and one of them is a birthday."
The bat sighed and then shrugged, as this was the average day for him.
