Sweet Love Club.

The entire club was dark and noisy, save for the occasional flash of lights on the dance floor. The heavy music reverberated on both floors as people danced with full enthusiasm.

The chief bartender poured some vodka into the metal cup of a cocktail shaker. His hand motions were fluid and rapid as he added lemon juice, sweet sherry, and other components to make a Bloody Mary.

A minute later, the bartender served the drink in a glass, garnished with a celery stick, lemon wedge, and a cherry tomato.

Zed took the glass while another bartender served Club Special to Olly, Jessica, and Loren.

"You really don't drink alcohol?" Olly asked. He was surprised by how Zed only drank vodka with negligible alcohol content.

"Yes," Zed answered after taking a sip.

He was stating the truth partially since his current form rarely consumed alcohol-rich drinks.
