It is said, every important gathering is a Masqurade Ball. Each individual arrives trying to appear as more than their faults and failures. Each person putting on the best 'face' they can muster. Such was the case this evening as hover car after hover car arrived at the huge polished brass doors, granting entry into the social arena of RICKS.
Two huge brutish men stood at the doors. The were as groomed and polished as the doors, but there could be no mistakiing, none would pass without the requiste invitation.
The movers and shakers of Omega Prime, after presenting their passports for the evening, checked their coats in the small foyer and then passed onto the balcony overlooking the main hall. The sound of conversation slowly began to swell and from the back room the lyrical sounds of the singer Sonia could be heard.
At the fashionably late hour of 9 Vice Admrial Branson arrived. Marcus watched as she stepped onto the balcony. He looked over to the bartender and gave the hand signal they had rehersed.
By the time he reached the end of the bar the bartender handed him a glass.
As Branson reached the bottom of the stairs Marcus was there to welcome her.
Commodore Viceroy and the beautiful Bobbi-Lee Kennedy arrived to the stunning opening of the club known as RICK's. The Governor and his companion looked radiant as they entered the club. Vincent and Bobbi-Lee wisked to the back to watch the lounge singer and to stay out of the limelight.
The Omega News Network would not normally cover such an opening but the colony really needs a positive message. Christine arrived with Dr. Powers and smiled as cameras not only from her network but from subspace broadcasters around the Phoenix Fleet Protected territories took photos. The coverage of the Universiade had brought many representatives to the colony. Marcus could not have chosen a better time to hold his opening. Christine smiled and waved avoiding questions about who she favored in the leaders marathon.
Christine and the aged Antican enjoyed the amazing songstress. Christine scoffed seeing Nicole and her probation officer covorting like some sort of teenage girls. Christine could not believe that the Rear Admiral was allegedly in training for the leaders marathon and yet behaving like a spoiled teenage debutante. Perfect!!
The RICKS opening was incredible and all who attended were treated to an amazing experience.
