Here's another attempt:

The Club had just finished repairs, so figured this would be the best time to strike. As I entered The Club, I noticed that it was rather short on security; didn’t mean I should overestimate my chances. I walked toward the dance floor, the strobe lights so bright I needed sunglasses. It was there I saw my targets: the Malachite twins. I heard that they had actually given Yang Xiao Long a run for her Lin. If it weren’t my orders I would’ve just shot them and left, but Weiss wanted answers from them. As I got closer to the dance floor, I noticed the bar. I noticed the way it changed color in the same rhythm as the music, and I could hear them rattle against the glass holding them. They sounded oddly metallic, despite their clear and glassy appearance. I also noticed how the trees looked incredibly lifelike, despite being digital. Heh, this place is full of smoke and mirrors. When I looked back at the dance floor, the twins had left it. Dammit! they gave me the slip! I headed over to the bar for a drink. “Anything with alcohol,” I said quickly to the bartender. The bartender hesitated, because I didn’t look of proper age to drink, I’m sure.

“Alright, a soda, then. Just something to drink man.”

With that the bartender nodded and brought me a soda. After my drink came, I noticed the twins were on either side of me, Melanie to my right and Miltiades to my left.

“Hello, girls.”

“Why are you wearing sunglasses?” Miltiades giggled.

I playfully retorted back to her, “I could ask the same of your security team in here.” I liked Miltia. She reminded me of Weiss when she was younger.

“Why are you even here, smartass?” Melanie hissed in my ear. I could do without her in my life. The venom in her attitude was palpable.

“Just got a couple questions for you girls.”

“Ask away, I’m sorry I never got your name.” Miltia said in a gentle tone.

“Oh right, name’s Icarus.”

“Alright, ask away Icarus.”

“Ever heard of Summer Rose?”

“Can’t say I have Icarus, Junior might-” Miltia trailed off as Junior walked up.

Junior was a towering bearlike giant. I didn’t know a human could be this tall. “Behaving girls?” he asked, even his voice reminded me of a bear.

“Yes Junior. Icarus here has questions for you.” Miltia replied sweetly.

“Oh, really? About what?”

<p class="MsoNormal">“Summer Rose, wasn’t it?”

<p class="MsoNormal">“Summer Rose… Don’t believe I’ve heard of her.”

<p class="MsoNormal">I couldn’t help but give a frustrated groan. This was the third stop that yielded no results, and I was tired of asking nicely. Junior picked up on my frustration and may as well have rubbed salt in the wound.

<p class="MsoNormal">“I don’t think anyone has heard of her.”

<p class="MsoNormal">With that, I went over the edge and shot Junior across the bar and headed towards the door, but I was stopped by the security team. I gave a slight sigh.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Outta the way.”

<p class="MsoNormal">After they didn’t move, I reloaded Swordvolver and got ready to fight. The guards ran at me, poor idiots. 3 flanked me from different sides. I jumped shot the one who came directly at me and he smacked into the other two, taking all three down. As I landed, I heel kicked the fourth guard into the ground and shot the final guard into a pillar.

<p class="MsoNormal">I looked up as Miltia and Melanie approached. “Do you really want to do this, girls?”

<p class="MsoNormal">I could see that Miltia didn’t really care for fighting, the poor girl, but her sister seemed to love fighting.

<p class="MsoNormal">“Let’s get this over with, then.”

<p class="MsoNormal">I closed the distance on Miltia and quickly knocked her out to save her the misery from fighting. As soon as I did, Melanie ran up and tried a suplex kick. I dodged, though it was quite a close call. This girl is really good at this! After a short while, I was able to keep up with her kicks and even blocked a few. She tried a roundhouse kick which I ducked under and fired 3 rounds to send her flying, saving my last round to knock out the DJ. I saw Junior walking up and reloaded Swordvolver.

<p class="MsoNormal">“You’ll pay for this,” he said menacingly.

<p class="MsoNormal">He soon fired his rockets at me. I was barely able to dodge them, and then ran at him, dodging rockets as I did so. I sliced through the bazooka, and then shot him. He slammed into the wall and fell cold. I gave an exasperated sigh now that the fight was over. I went over to Miltia and left my card in her hand and left. Man, Weiss is gonna kill me...
