It was a dark Saturday night and the music was pumping. Ember Martin worked the small bar at the back of Elysium. It was one of the hottest nightclubs of Austin, Texas, and Ember was the best they had. An ex-coyote of the Coyote Ugly bar, Ember was everything to the owners of Elysium. She had all the moves and the attitude to boot.
The music of the DJ throbbed through Ember as she worked the bar that night. Black light streaks of pink, green, and blue ran through her naturally fire red hair. The long silken strands were pulled back into a pony tail before being snake braided, reaching her lower back. Her simple outfit of a black leather bustier and matching pants were painted over with tribal designs in the black light paints. Emerald eyes flashed hard in the strobe light that lit the dance floor.
Ember worked her magic at the bar while watching the others dance. She poured drink after drink without a single slip up. Her skill and reputation as a Coyote had brought Elysium more and more devoted customers. Some came for the music of course, but on Saturday nights, most came for Ember. It wasn't just her skill as a bartender that kept people coming of course. Everyone, including Ember herself, knew she was nothing short of stunning. She was tall and thin, with a well endowed chest. About the only thing keeping her single when surrounded by the best Austin had to offer was her attitude.
Ember wasn't her name merely for the color of her hair. The sting of her words would leave a burn mark on your soul if you got her temper hot enough. She was definitely a firecracker when she wanted to be. Spark her just right and she would explode in your face, leaving you scared for life.
"Hey Firefly! Give me a rum and coke will ya?!" the shout came from straight in front of her and she still barely heard it.
"Ain't got rum and don't serve coke here." Ember bit back, taking a swig of a beer.
"What do you have then?"
"Jim, Jack, Johnny Red, Johnny Black, and Jose; all my favorite men. You can have it any way you like it, as long as it comes in a shot glass." Ember slammed the shot glass down on the counter with a smug look before watching the guy walk away. "Bozo." she muttered quietly before continuing on with her work.
