"and the fun begins!" she yelled to Barbara as they made their way to the bar. Taking in the atmosphere. It was definelty upbeat and a lot of people were already out on the dance floor. She looked behind the bar to what seemed to be some kind of stage where they were setting up.
She finally got the bartenders attention and ordered Zinda's drink and one for herself. "What are you drinking tonight Babs!"

Barbara wheeled her way through the crowd, really just soaking up the place in its entirety. It had been a while since she had been in such a busseling place. Not even the Iceberg Lounge got this busy. Well.. certain nights it did, but that was mostly with the jazz and swing dance crowd. STILL a lot of fun in her opinion. But THIS?
Oh.
THIS was living.
She hadn't been in this place for more than five minutes and already she was thrilled. "Um... a Jeager Bomb--!"
She grinned when she saw the bartender toss her a look. "What? I can't start things off with a bang?"

Dinah looked at the Bartender. "you heard the lady in fact give us three might as well start the night off right" she smiled at Barbara.
"what should I get Charlie to drink?" She didn't want to step on Barbara's parenting toes when it came to Charlie. She wanted to make sure Barbara was okay with what might happen this evening.

Barbara applauded Dinah's choice. "I'm sure Zinda's going to approve of our sudden opening game changer!" She looked back to the Bartender. "I'll also take a Screwdriver on the side."
She thought about the question that she was faced with. What would Charlie enjoy? Technically, this was the first time any of them pulled her out to a place like this. "We just might have to experiment with her tastebuds!" she grinned. "Start her off with a Cinderella? I think she'll like the bit of kick that comes with it."

"I just don't want to scar the kid, I assume this will be her first drink, don't want to go to crazy with her" she said loud enough that only Barbara could hear. She was actually surprised by Barbara's suggestion, she really thought she would tell her to order Charlie a coke.
But then again they were here to party

"I've got a feeling Charlie will be able to handle it if it came down to it. I thought I'd start her off with something non-alcholic but still with a bit of flare." she giggled weakly. "She deserves that much, right?
"Annnd if she doesn't like the Mocktail, she can always opt for whatever else she may want.
"I trust her. And I trust you and Zinda. I know you both have her best interests at heart."
She chuckled, speaking a bit quieter to Dinah, holding back a giggle. "She can think of this as practice for her twenty-first birthday."

"Alright then....should we tell here there is Alcohol in it and see how she reacts?"
"it might prove amusing..." She smiled

Time was the factor.
Charlie hated bouncing blind. She always preferred to only bounce when she knew the area like the back of her hand. Though, as a crime fighter, sometimes, she wasn't allowed to have the luxory. She had to think on her toes and know that second by second, every moment counted in her line of work.
But this wasn't eactly work. This was different. This was much harder then crime fighting. Possibly the hardest thing in the entire world.
THis was socializing.
Using the read-view mirror of Zinda's SUV, Charlie checked her makeup one last time, running her red painted fignenail over her lip before closing her eyes and letting out a soft sigh.
*BOUNCE!*
The net thing she knew, she was sitting inside the stall of the Women's room. Stage one was complete: she wasn't sitting in the lap of anyone trying to do their business. In her eyes, that was a victory.
Opening up the door to the stall, Charlie casually and calmly walked out. She walked to the sink and washed her hands. Despite not actually going, she still felt the urge to wash. Some old habits die hard, apparently. After drying her hands with a papertowel, she turned and waited, hoping that Zinda would arrive with her bracelet at any moment.
If her friends couldn't score her one, this was going to be a VERY short lived girls night out.
...No.
Charlie needed to stay positive. This was her friends, she was talking about. The Birds of Prey. This mission was going to be a success.
She had faith.

Zinda found herself having to maneuver around a few people to get over to the hallway of the ladies room. So far, so good.
Not really too many people hanging out around the hall either, which was exactly what she was hoping for. It seemed like the Club Gods were smiling down on her today.
Pushing the door to the restroom open, she had to do a double take when she saw the other woman standing in front of the mirrors, washing her hands. "Oh--! There you are!" she giggled and ran over to Charlie squeezing her tightly.
"I'm so glad you made it in okay." she said in a low whisper, despite the fact that no one was in the restroom other than the two of them. Zinda checked her wrist to make sure she knew where the wristband was supposed to go on and pulled it from her pocket, showing it to Charlie like some kind of trophy. "And Lookie what Auntie Zinda has for you tonight!"
She made sure the paper bracelet wasn't too tight around her wrsit, but tight enough so it wouldn't slip off. "You look SO CUTE tonight, sug! You ready to live it up tonight? Babs and Dinah are waitin' for us!"

As soon as Zinda came into the bathroom, a smile of relief had come across Charlie's face. Even after all the adventures and battles they had together, she had never been so releived to see her teammate in her life then at that moment riht there.
So many thoughts and ideas ran through Charlie's mind. This was an experience unlike anything she had ever felt before.
For her entire life, Charlie was a 'good girl'. Always following the rules. Doing her homework. Early to bed. Late to rise, but always doing her best to get to school on time. She was a sweet, honest girl who always wanted to do what was proper, so the idea of taking this time to break the rules and actually do something naughty was...a bit exciting.
She looked down as Zinda slid the bracelet around her wrist. It was an interesting experience, one that almost felt like she was earning a badge of honor in an awards ceremony. Once it was on her wrist, her hand played with the paper band a little as a smile came across her face.
Somehow, this felt...right.
Taking one last breath, Charlie looked into the bathroom mirror and smiled. She saw a whole new girl looking back. A girl that she didn't quite know, but either way, she liked her.
"Okay." Charlie turned back to Zinda, her smile never fading. "Im ready."

A big grin spread across Zinda's face the moment she saw Charlie's face light up. "Now let's get out there and have us a BLAST--!" She gently grabbed ahold of her wrist and started pulling her, extremely excited, toward the exit.
"You're the gal of the hour, you know!" She said, almost yelling as they pushed their way into the hall. The thumping of the club's music starting to bump through the walls. "The part isn't started until you're here with us!"
She was honestly glad Charlie was there. This was goin' to be be fun.
Managing to spot Dinah and Barbara, she made their way over and waved Charlie's hand towards them instead of her own. "Lookie who I found!"

"took you two long enough" Dinah smiled.
"drink have been ordered and should be here very soon. You know this place is pretty busy and got some good music going but honestly not seeing a ton of hot guys for us to play with"

"Well if you ordered drinks and they're not here already, then you didn't order them up soon enough, did ya?" she gave Dinah a playful wink. Even though she was only teasing, she really was only half teasing. She was ready to get the night started.
As the drinks started to be slid over by the bartender, Zinda leaned over and smiled. "Uh... HI. We'd uh... like to start a tab for the night?" She pointed at Dinah, Barbara, and Charlie. "For us? You think you c'n do that for me, soldier?" She smirked and leaned in, whispering. "Perhaps plus one more too, but I'll let you know if they show up."
The bartender could only nod in response as Zinda took hold of her drink and started passing the ordered ones around. She questionably looked at the sparkling blue drink before passing it to Charlie. She had a feeling that one was for her. "And for yooou."
She took a slip of her own and turned back to Dinah. "Aww-- what are you talkin' about Dinah?" She motioned to a bunch of guys leaning over a pool table who were probably dressed TOO well. "There's a bunch of fiiinely tuned guys right there!!"
Pulling out her cellphone she scrolled through her contact list and typed out a message.
{You should come hang out with us tonight. Lots of fun!}

"Well look who finally decided to come out and play." She gave Charlie a small wave, taking hold of the drink that Zinda passed her.
It had been a while since she had a drink of any kind, or really just let loose and relaxed. Tonight was going to be one for the books.
She took a sip of her mixed drink, giggling just faintly. "This one is mixed pretty well..."
When Zinda passed Charlie her drink, motioned to the sparkling glass of blue liquid. "Something I thought you might like. I wasn't sure what your preference was going to be for the night.. but I hope it's a worthy choice."

As Harley stepped out of the red sports car that brought them there, she giggled with excitement. Instead of her typical black and red jester attire tonight she was trying to roll under the radar. Her eyes completely lit up as she gazed upon the club. Oh how this is going to be magical evening! Oh how exciting this is going to be!
Slamming the car door shut Harley jumped up and down in her red pumps holding a smile on her face. There was much to be excited about considering her recent release from Arkham. It had been a while since she had gotten out to really enjoy herself in a while. And getting the chance to spend it with her best gal pal?
What else more could she want?
"Oh gee, Red! This is going to be so much fun!! You can already hear the music from out here--!"
As and she looked back to the doorway, she arched an eyebrow and immediately frowned, her blonde locks falling in front of her face. "Aww... lookit that line!! It'll take us forever to get inside!"
