As the Madame continued with her show. There were figures who had stood on the catwalks above the stage. They were dressed in dark attire, and had their faced covered by even darker masks. They were the muted guardians of her realm. Shadowy figures that even her faithful security guard Edrin rarely encountered. For they reported to the Madame directly, and were never really allowed around the guests. After all, this was a place of pleasure. These guards were probably the last things you wanted to see undressed. Which is ironic due to the nature of the realm.<br/><br/>Felix watched them as they patrolled the catwalk. He, and a few other staff members were back stage. "Their at it again." He commented as he took a sip of one of his special martinis. One of the stagehands, a rather gorgeous, but almost unnatural doll of a girl giggled. "You mean the floating?" Felix nodded with a brief sigh. "Yes, at least they could was show some leg, but their so damn concerned about keeping up the shadowy guard routine." The stage hand then pointed out a fact about the guards. "To be fair, they aren't exactly concerned about being attractive in the first place." Felix took another sip. "Yes, I would presume so. Again, the choices the Madame makes when hiring some of these "security forces." The doll then looked at the drink in his hand. "How many so far?" Felix smiled and raised his hand. "Six, but who is counting." The doll shook her head, and went back to watching the show.<br/><br/>The musical number had finally hit it's climax as Ruse puffed her chest out, and bellowed out a grand call out towards the crowd.<br/><br/>"And Always remember, to save the last piece for Mama!!!"<br/><br/>A thunderous sound of applause echoed around the entire ballroom as guests stood up to clap. Whistles, compliments, and cheers all around could be heard all around. Music would continue to play as the curtains closed, and the guests sat back in their seats. Eventually the same well dressed figure in the suit, Zed, stepped back unto the stage. Ladies and Gentlemen, as always you are more then welcome to stay and chat, and when ya ready to head up back towards ya rooms. The staff will gladly escort you. Hope you enjoyed ya show, and we would like to again thank you for coming."<br/><br/>He then stopped for a moment, and pointed towards the lights. "The newcomers, you know who you are by the lights. The Madame would like to speak to you back stage. Edrin, you come too." Staff members appeared next to the newcomers, and offered their hands as to guide them to the backstage. Now the backstage, was just as magnificent as the ballroom it's self. While common backstage were always dark, and dull. Even noisy so with the hustle and bustle of acts. Madame Ruses's back stage was this massive room filled with live animals. Huge stage props, almost endless amount of doors and staff members. It was in many ways a living, breathing place all on it's own. At the center of it, was a doorway that on it read.<br/><br/>"The Dressing room of Your's Truly"
