Niki makes a quick exit

As Niki Sanders finished getting dressed in an uncomfortably tight blue dress, she watched the man who had called himself Sylar faint and figured that it was time to start heading for the door.

It's not like the two of them are noticing my absence anyway, she thought.

Unfortunately, the front door was blocked by a huge crowd. So Niki looked for a back exit.

No sooner had she found one than Mystique entered the club through that same exit. But she did not even bother to notice Niki.

Instead Mystique was more concerned about the bruised and battered woman that she held in her arms -- a woman who looked astonishingly like Emma Frost.

"There's the one my Mistress wants you to deal with, Emma," said Mystique. "The woman in red. She calls herself Glory."

Emma took one look at Glory and even though Glory was on the other side of the club, she could not help screaming, "Not her! Not her! For the love of everything you consider holy, not her!"

Mystique just smiled and started dragging Emma closer to Glory.

Well, that makes it official, thought Niki as she ran out the exit Mystique and Emma had just vacated. I'm never coming to this club again. From now on, it's strictly web-cams.

I don't care what Jessica does to me, Niki thought. I'll be damned if I ever work in another strip club again.
