In the Limelight||Dick&Kate
The music was so loud the walls and floor vibrated with the rhythm of the bass, neon lights dancing around throughout the whole room. The whole building was full of all of Gotham's elite citizens, a line of people crowded the streets, spreading across two blocks as they waited for a chance to walk into the event. Kate, herself, stood at the DJ's stand with one of Gotham's most promising rookie DJ. She had been working on the event for months now, carefully putting together a campaign to bring attention to the newbie. She had even let him open for her in a few of her own events which worked wonders.
She watched the young man moving with the rhythm as he played, causing her to smile. Pulling one of her diamond chains over her head, she put it over his which caused him to stop moving and gawk at her in disbelief. "You got this," she shouted over the music into his ear. "This your moment!" He hugged her so hard, her snapback fell off her head, causing the vigilante to laugh.
As the young man resumed, Kate picked up her snapback and began to walk away. A smile spread across her lips as she made her way through the crowd. Some people stopped and spoke words she couldnt hear over the music, making Kate nod and smile without truly knowing what she was nodding and smiling for.
A husky man covered in a Gucci attire stopped her by the bar, screaming in her ear about a mixtape when her gaze focused on the building's entrance. Something was going on, various bouncers rushing through the door. For a moment, Kate thought she saw somebody mouthing 'cops'. It was then that she handed a business card at the husky male and dashed towards the entrance. Outside, were about four patrol cars of Gotham's finest, about nine people sitting on the sidewalk in cmhandcuffs and a group of angry bystanders pointing their cameras at the policemen. The tension kept rising by the minute, and Kate could tell that they had begun to crowd around one particular officer... One she not only recognized, but was a part of her own life.
"Yo... YO!" Kate hollered in wrath as she realized her bouncers were also going after the police officer. "Get away fron him!" She demanded, quickly putting herself between Dick and the angry crowd. "He took one of our men--" one of her personal bouncers tried to argue, but Kate was not interested. Nobody was about to put a hand on Dick with her there. "This is my fucking nephew, I don't want to hear it," she snarled. "Now, take yourself and them off his back," Kate stated firmly.
After one quick moment, he did just as she demanded, convincing the rest of his team to help dismiss the angry crowd. Turning to Dick, Kate arched an eyebrow. She wasn't about to question him, she didn't need to know. Kate trusted Dick and his judgement, and was sure Dick was simply doing his job rather than abusing his power like most officers did in the GCPD. "Are you alright?" She asked Dick, a mocking smirk tugging at the corners of her lips. "Mr. Officer?" She giggled then.
