Maverick Effect (Chapter 8)

The music pumped through the rave. Strobe lights and smoke effects floated through the air. People moved in time with the music. Maverick and Valara danced close, moving in time with each other. The song was stirring and hypnotising at the same time. It spoke of secrets and dark promises. A circle had gathered around Valara and Mav. People watched them move, their bodies flowing together like water. It was graceful and yet, dangerous, like the music. Their light tracer bracelets made complex designs in the air. The glowsticks flashed and danced, almost taking on a life of their own. The beat moved faster and deeper. People sprang to life, moving with the song. Yet there was still that circle around Maverick and Valara. It was dark in the rave, but each wore sunglasses. But one could swear they could see if in bright light, moving with each other. They danced together, the music flowing over them, strong and sweet. They fell into each others arms, smiling as the beat died down to unnatural silence before the next song.
