• A young girl walks through the dark streets, her head looking down and deep in her high collar. These streets are dangerous in LA, gangsters, killers, homicides, rapists, worse.... the cities alleys aren't safe to be in, or the city itself. She looks like in her teens, maybe 18 or 19's. Its her first time coming here, looking for a life, for a job, a home. She looked on paper, then at a apartment. "This is it...." She walks through the the doors and up the stairs. "Ok... let's see... room... 13....". She looks through the doors number. 13. She opens the doors and walks in a messy, dirty room. "....Ew ..... Well.... Home... Sweet home....I guess..." She Walks to the bed and sits on it. "Not so comfortable...." She stands and goes to the bathroom. "This bathroom looks cleaner than the apartment...." She walks out and puts her suitcase and jacket on the bed, sighed and collapsed on the bed. Then drifted off to sleep.

    The Light shined on the girls face as the sun comes up from over the hills. She slowly opened her eyes and looked outside. "Well.... first day of LA... " She cleaned herself up, brushed her hair, and got dressed in new clothes. She walked out and away, going towards downtown. She bumped through the crowded city, going building to building, going through rejection after rejection. While she stepped out of a clothing department, she looked around, as if she thought she was being followed. She then stopped to a man in the distance, glancing at her at the corner of the street. His eyes gazed right at her, looking like he's a predator, and he found his prey. She turned and walked in the other way. Hours went by as she went through the ghetto parts of the city, people staring at her interested, and in a dangerous way. She walked fast passed them. She walked into one more building, looking around, she sees girls in bikini's and poles. She stopped to turn around, but a tall muscular man stopped her.
    "Um... excuse me...." He didn't move. She turned to see a man with a Cuban cigar come to her, smiling.
    "Heh, well well, looking for work?" He asked.
    "Well... uh...y-yes...." The girl blushed.
    "Then you came to the right place. Name's Lino, I'm the owner of this club."
    "Im Angel... and I'm..."
    "Your my next employee, Miss Angel." He chuckled and walked away. "You start today at 9... and if you don't come....", he turned back to her. "I know people who would track you down...." He looked at her coldly. The girl, Angel, had fear in her eyes once he slightly showed a gun from his jacket. "You get it...?"
    She nods slowly. "Uh-huh..."
    "Good.... now go. And don't think the cops can do anything about this..."
    Angel looked down and walked past the big man. He slapped her a** and she jumped. He chuckled and walked away. Angel looked around again and noticed, the same man from the corner of the street, sitting there, eyes on to her, watching.
    Angel quickly turned and walked out.
    8:40
    Angel walked out of her apartment and walked down the street with a cloak around her. She walked through the ghetto streets and around the corners. There where more groups of people of all races. Blacks, Latino's, Asians, even Russian. It took her a while to find out where she is going, but she managed to get to the club, but ten minutes late. She walked in through the doors and looked around. Lino was there waiting for her. "You're late..." He said.
    "I'm sorry... I'm just new here and i don't have a car... and i usually get lost.... and..." She stopped speaking as he walked to her.
    "It's alright.... I understand.... Don't let it happen again..." He led her to the dressing room, where ladies are dressing out. "You go here. Go to the private room after your dressed." Lino walked away. The girl looked at Angel, some with bruises and small cuts. They then quickly walked out leaving Angel alone.
    Angel Removed her cloak and set it on a coat hanger. She walked around and looked around. "I'm in my first day and i don't like it already...." She said. She then stripped down and put on a bikini and covered herself with her cloak. She walked out and looked around, the girls doing their job, and the guys paying them. Angel looked at the private rooms sign. She walked through the hall and looked through the doors. She saw Lino with two big guys waiting for her.
    "Hello, Angel. Your ready to start?" He grinned.
    "I... I guess..." Angel slowly walked on the platform, blushing, looking down, standing there.
    "Well what are you waiting for? Dance...." Lino ordered.
    Angel stood there.
    "Ugh... never mind, just show me what you got." Lino threw money to Angel and grinned. She stared at the money in a worried way.
    "W-what...?" She backed up a little.
    "Take 'em off. Now." Lino demanded and stands.
    "B-but... I..." Angel backed more. Lino walked towards her. She backed into a wall as Lino walked to her more. "Please....." she begged. "I don't want to...."
    "Im giving you money for this.... I hate losing money." Lino Grabbed her arm and her top and ripped it off. She screamed and ran out, covering herself. She squeezed through the guards and ran through the club and into the dressing room. She grabbed her coat and went through the door and towards the exit, but someone grabbed her. "Where do you think your going? Heh." Lino walked to her while the guard walked to her.
    "P-please.... I don't want to do this.... please....!" Lino took angel to the dressing room and slapped her.
    "You do what you are told!"
    "But i don't want to!" Angel cried. Lino punched her to the ground and started beating her. Then a hand grabbed his wrist.
    "Knock it off!" A man said. Lino looked at the man. Angel turned her head and saw the man that was stalking her. She crawled to a corner and wrapped her arms around herself. The man hold Lino's fist tightly.
    "How did you get in here!? Guards!" Lino looked at his guards lying on the floor. "What the.... Who are you?" Lino looked up at the man. His hand started to crack and bleed. Lino yelled in pain
    "You don't need to know my name..... How much...?"
    "For what!? Let go!"
    "For the girl."
    "She's not for sale now let go!"
    "I'll give you 5000..." The man stared at Angel. Angel backed up more.
    Lino nodded. "Ok, ok! Deal! Now please let go!" The man let go of Lino's hand and walked to Angel slowly.
    "Are you alright...?" He asked softly. Angel nodded quickly. He reached out his hand to her. She slowly grabbed it and he pulled her up and wrapped her jacket on her and walked away with her. Lino opened his bloody hand and saw a gold coin in it.
    The man walked outside with Angel. Angel looked at the man and hugs him tight. "Thank you.... so much..." Angel cried in his arms.
    "Its alright..." He wraps his arms around her and hugs her tight. Angel closed her eyes and cried more. He picked her up and started to walk. Angel moved closer to him, feeling safe in his arms. "Where do you live..." He asked. Angel told him where to go and he stopped at her home.
    "Here...." She said. The man let her down. " Thank you again....... um.... heh.... what is your name...?" She blushed.
    "Heh, your a shy one... My name... It's Kain..." He said. Angel smiled.
    "Heh... nice name....."
    "Same for yours.... Angel" She blushed.
    "Thank you.... for everything...." She hugged him again.
    "Its alright.... now go and get some rest...." Angel nodded and walked up the stairs. She turned around, but he wasn't there. She looked around.
    "Kain....." She whispered and slowly closed the door.
