The room grew dark, leaving the partiers in blackness so thick that they could barely see those who stood next to them. At the edge of the stage red lights began to light up, casting a bloody glow over those nearest. The curtains parted, revealing a swirling darkness, it was beyond black, yet somehow they could see it moving, as if it was comprised of many things moving together.
Music starts, a heavy beat pulsing through the room like the beat of all of the hearts gathered there. It grew in tempo; synthesizers join the bass, weaving their melodic sounds around and through the beat. Something changes in the swirling darkness; it seems to be folding in on itself, leaving behind a dark mist that covers the floor, drifting over the edge of the stage.
The darkness shifts, pulsing with the music, as if it is part of it, then thins becoming more and more mist like itself. As the darkness dissipates they see a figure standing alone at the center of the stage, she looks small, frail almost, standing alone, large black wings extend from her shoulders as she stands there in the center of the darkness, lit only by the red lights reflecting off of the fog behind her. The music stops, leaving nothing but silence that seemed to ring in their ears behind.

She raises her head, her dark hair falling back from her face as she looks at the crowd, her eyes shine in the red glow. A man?s deep voice begins to sing, the sound coming from everywhere and nowhere all at once:
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did I want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came?
A chime rings, and on cue the drums start; the beat, slow and heavy, falls over those watching. She moves, stepping in time to the beat of the song, the black mist swirls up and around her perfect thighs with each movement.
Candles raise my desire
Why I'm so far away
No more meaning to my life
No more reason to stay
Freezing feeling, breathe in - breathe in
I'm coming back again?
Her body moves fluidly, hips swaying as her hands play out the story, weaving a pattern around and about each other mesmerizing the watchers with each move that they make.
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came?
The dance has been choreographed to show off her femininity, accentuating and displaying her curves, her hips, her breasts, as she moves gracefully through the steps. She begins to spin, around and around, her arms spread wide, palms down as she turns.
Hazing clouds rain on my head
Empty thoughts fill my ears
Find my shade by the moon light
Why my thought aren't so clear
Demons dreaming breathe in, breathin'
I'm coming back again?
At the words ?Demons dreaming? she calls out in a strange language, and raises her hands up over her head. As they lift the mist takes form, and she is surrounded by demons with red eyes that burn with the fires of the Hell that they were summoned from.
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came?
The demons moved around her, stepping along with her, and moving with the music. Her form appeared to be even more frail surrounded by the large black figures, which moved around forming a half circle behind her.
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came
I'm not the one who's so far away
When I feel the snake bite enter my veins
Never did want to be here again
And I don't remember why I came?
Still she dances on, her movements becoming hypnotic, pulling them to her, ?come closer,? they all hear in their heads, ?Come to me,? the invitation extends to each of those who watch her, and yet it is to each alone that it is sent. The crowd moves closer to the stage, close enough to feel the heat that exudes from the demons around her.
Voodoo
So far away
I'm not the one who's so far away
As the last line of ?I?m not the one who?s so far away? fall upon them, the music stops, and Lillianna falls downward to kneel on the stage, head bowed, her dark hair falling in front of her face, shielding her from the sight of those in front of her. The black mist begins to reform around her as she kneels there, the demons melting back into the mist that she had called them from. The lights dim, leaving the crowd once more in darkness for a few moments before the house lights come back on, revealing the curtains had been lowered on the now empty stage with the last remnants of the mist dissipating before their eyes.
