Karlos Basoalto: He sits at a cafe, a thick textbook on the table in front of him, sipping an espresso.

Karlos Basoalto: He's maybe 30 pages into the book, utterly engrossed, marking the occasional line with a yellow highlighter.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Heads south, towards downtown, She scans the street as she goes, then sighs defeatedly and slows down, seeming to loosen up. Cass looked around and spotted a cafe on the street, turning and stalking towards the door as she always seems to.

Karlos Basoalto: He pauses, noting the espresso cup is empty, and looks up to smile endearingly at a waitress and gesture to the cup. Nothing more than that. Then his gaze drifts to the newcomer, and he purses his lips, deciding. Finally he waves to her. "Cassie..."

Evil Fuzzy Ravyn 1.0 [Night]: It's a fairly mild night tonight, mostly clear in the sky. The tempurature is threatening to drop to cooler levels, but it's not bad at the moment, as the area around the cafe is sparesly populated. The Halloween atmosphere is present, as a couple of teens run by in outlandish costumes...but all in all, it's quiet, at the moment.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie walks through the door quietly, shivvering a little and wandering up to the bar but making no attempt to be inconspicuous, more than a couple of the male patrons follow her path as she walks, engrossed in her breathtaking looks, "A hot chocolate," she asked softly, in a light weak voice. She hears someone say her name and turns spotting Karlos.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Hey" she bites her lip, seeming a little unsure of what to make of the guy speaking to her.

Karlos Basoalto: He offers her a polite smile, gesturing to an empty seat at his table.

Viktor Blackburn: *wanders down the street, even on halloween people seem to find him creepy and give him a wide berth*

Cassie Raines [Night]: The girl gives Cass her hot chocolate with a polite, "have a happy halloween", Cass grinned thanking the girl and headed slowly over to where Karlos sat. she stood at the edge of the table peering at his book. "Hi..."

Karlos Basoalto: "Hi Cassie. How're things with you?" He gestures to the seat again, just in case she missed it first time around.
 

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass sits down gently, being careful as to keeping her hands above the table as she did so, "They're ok, Ive been worse." she gave him an uncomfortable smile.

Viktor Blackburn: *and he walks down the street, a bit down from the cafe, but heading vaguely towards it* ((and giving his player time to get info from Ravyn and to figure out how to join the scene.))

Karlos Basoalto: He nods a little, marking his place with a bookmark then closing the book. It appears to be a textbook on various european cultures. "That sounds very much like a mixed blessing..."

Cassie Raines [Night]: "well forgive me if I seem somewhat uncomfortable" she smiled but offered no explaination, Idly blowing on the hot chocolate,

Karlos Basoalto: "I think out of either of us, I should be the uncomfortable one, don't you?" He quirks an eyebrow slightly.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Im sure I have no Idea why.. " upperclass oxford accent clear and precise, she looked again at his book but dismissed it and looked to the other patrons.

Karlos Basoalto: "Uh huh." He smiles wryly, then thanks the waitress when she delivers another espresso, taking away his first cup.

Viktor Blackburn: 5,2,9,7,3,

Cassie Raines [Night]: "you know very well what I want to ask.." she didnt look at him, "but I guess that If I did I wouldnt get an answer."

Karlos Basoalto: "You want to ask how? Or you want to ask what? Neither of which I can answer, because I do not know." He sips the scalding hot espresso.

Viktor Blackburn: *glances in the window of a cafe he's passing, he then suddenly makes a right angle turn and heads into the cafe*

Cassie Raines [Night]: "ok" she sits and waits, unsure of where to go on from here.

Karlos Basoalto: "Scared the crap out of me, to be honest." He shrugs.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass leans in close, lips slightly downwards, "Look I ~told~ you to leave me"

Karlos Basoalto: He gazes at her. "I'm sorry. I was simply trying to protect you from the police."

Viktor Blackburn: *orders a glass of tea, and sits someplace near Karlos and Cassie*

Cassie Raines [Night]: "And I was trying to protect us both," she frowned, obviously a little annoyed.

Evil Fuzzy Ravyn 1.0 [Night]: ((Everyone can roll me a Perception+Alertness...))

Viktor Blackburn: 9,8,3,1,2,

Karlos Basoalto: "And if it hadn't been me, it could've been an innocent, Cassie."

Cassie Raines [Night]: 9,

Karlos Basoalto: 7,2,6,3,5,3,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Yay Cass!!!))

Cassie Raines [Night]: "thats why I told you to leave," she whispered in almost a hiss, "i didnt want to do that,"

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((YaY a sux))

Karlos Basoalto: "You would've done it to ~someone~."

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass didnt reply, she just looked to the other patrons,

Evil Fuzzy Ravyn 1.0 [Night]: All three inside the cafe notice a guy walk by the cafe. He glances inside, out of habit, and suddenly stiffens as he locks eyes with Karlos. A small smile lights on his face, and he gets a cell phone out of his leather Jacket, dialing a speed-dial number and talking quietly into it, his eyes locked on Karlos the whole time.

Evil Fuzzy Ravyn 1.0 [Night] -> Karlos Basoalto: Karlos recognizes him instantly...it's the Sabbat from the Break, the gay club that got shot up.

Karlos Basoalto: He quirks an eyebrow, watching the guy, murmuring to Cassie "Uh oh... Don't tell me the press are gonna have a field day over a fucking cup of coffee..."

Evil Fuzzy Ravyn 1.0 [Night] -> Viktor Blackburn: Viktor recognizes the guy from the videotape...it's JJ, the Sabbat.

Viktor Blackburn: Viktor watches him, as he seems to know the person Cassie is with, but mostly he watches Cassie

Karlos Basoalto: Then his brain catches up, and his face loses all colour.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "whoes your friend?" Cassie looks away from the window and looks to the exits a second, then back to karlos, head to one side quizzically.

Viktor Blackburn: *does a bit of a doubletake, and starts watching JJ surreptitiously, Cassie is small potatoes*

Karlos Basoalto: "Sabbat," he hisses.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: ((DD: The man outside fairly screams “pretty-boy poser,” what with his fairly soft, good looks, too-perfect short brown hair, leather jacket, and complete faux-attitude. His jeans are too new, his Nine Inch Nails concert shirt was obviously bought off the rack recently, and he keeps his facial hair in one of those oh-so-tragically-hip goatee’s. Nonetheless, he seems to be trying to project an attitude of a bad-ass, and that makes it all the more comical. He's heavily favoring his right leg for some reason.))

Karlos Basoalto: The colour slowly, slowly begins to return to his features. The Treaty... They're part of the Treaty... No need to panic... No need to panic...

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassies eyes half shut a moment appraising Karlos, "Him.. " she glances to the window and back, "and he knows you,"

Karlos Basoalto: "Yeah." He sips his espresso, gaze still on JJ. "And he's calling someone because he's seen me. Spidey-sense says it's time to leave."

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He smiles widely to Karlos and waves, then turns and walks to the door, pulling it open and stepping inside. Pure malice is showing in his eyes as he walks in and turns on this right heel, walking toward their table with a casual ease.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Well why dont you call your friend first?" she looked again to the window, just cheching the guy,

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: ((Blood to dex))

Karlos Basoalto: The Spidey Sense is weak in this one. He puts on his bland face and regards JJ's approach.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He walks up to their booth and slides in next to Karlos, grinning to him as he puts his arm around his shoulder. "Hey, kid. How's it going? Remember me?"

Karlos Basoalto: "Oh, such fond memories." He smiles dryly. "I particularly remember you screaming like a girl. Was that good for you too?"

Viktor Blackburn: *watching them all, trying to eavesdrop*

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass just looked at the two of them seeming confused.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He chuckles slightly at that, though his eyes are shooting death at him. "Yeah, that was fun, wasn't it?" He nods, silently for a moment. "I think it might be your turn, now."

Karlos Basoalto: "Oh, you wouldn't want to do anything foolish now, would you?" He lifts an eyebrow, smiling pleasantly.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He chuckles slightly, his hand that's not around Karlos's shoulder going under the table. "Who'd ever know?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He looks over at Cassie, his expression still smiling. "Be smart, chicky, and stay out of this."

Karlos Basoalto: "Every other member of the Treaty, who would hunt you down and execute you for the transgression? I suggest you leave now." His smile remains pleasant.

Viktor Blackburn: *deep in thought, while watching, trying to gague how hard it would be to knock JJ out*

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass looks panicked and starts looking to the door and the girl behind the bar.

Karlos Basoalto: "Really?" He replies drolly. "I suppose you're going to tell me you found evidence of mysterious naked people at a gay bar. How dreary."

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass stands up to go to the ladies room, she smoothes down her clothes as she stands, slipping of her thick overcoat.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He shakes his head, lowering his voice so as only to be heard by the immediate tables around. "Amazingly, no. Rather, we got someone to lift some impressions and images off of it. Some of our juicebags were able to remember you real well."

Karlos Basoalto: As excellent an actor he is, nothing can hide his pupils widening to drag in more light, his skin paling as his adrenaline instantly prepares him to fight or flee, his breath quickening slightly to draw oxygen to wherever it may be needed. "Do you have a point, JJ, or are you just here for the cuddle?" His voice remains bored-sounding.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He looks up at Cass. "Smart move, chicky. I'd get lost, if I were you." He smiles at Karlos. "Me and him have some old friends of his to meet."

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass just remains standing at the table unsure whether to move or not now. she looks from Karlos to the sabbat,

Viktor Blackburn: *pulls out his cellphone and starts typing*

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: "My point, Karlos, is that you broke the treaty, you and your butch-boyfriend, by attacking me. Now, you're free game."

Karlos Basoalto: "Nuh-huh. That's lovely. I'm happy for you."

Karlos Basoalto: 5,7,4,4,4,2,1,

Karlos Basoalto: ((*Thwap*))

Viktor Blackburn: *hits the "send" button*

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: ((Unless his WP is really low, that's a fail, potentially a botch, at attempting to telepathically force JJ to release him))

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night] -> Karlos Basoalto: ((Actually, JJ's WP is 6. So just a fail.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He smirks at Karlos. "I bet you are, aren't you?" The hand that strayed under the table before puts a .45 barrel against Karlos's ribs under the table. "Not nearly as happy as I'll be soon."

Karlos Basoalto: His jaw clenches, gaze remaining fixed on JJ's. But for once, he has no smart comeback.

Viktor Blackburn: *glances at the phone and nods to himself, he stands up and heads over to JJ and Karlos* "Excuse me, do you mind if I join you?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He looks up at Cassie, smiling. "Last chance, chicky. Stay or go. If you stay, you're coming with us."

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Karlos.." Cass spoke in a whisper, tense.

Karlos Basoalto: His gaze flits to Cassie.

Karlos Basoalto: 9,2,5,7,8,6,3,

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He looks at Viktor, eyes narrowing. "Yeah, I do, pal. My friend here and I have personal business we're dealing with."

Karlos Basoalto: His gaze then flits to Viktor. He says nothing, not knowing who he is, and not wanting to get him hurt.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassies eyes widen a second and she sat back down.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass realises that this was the same guy at the bar the other week.. ((viktor))

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: ((blood strength))

Viktor Blackburn: "I would strongly recommend that you make no assumptions about who else is involved in your personal business." *his voice has an edge to it, not a threat per se, but there's a bit of one implied*

Karlos Basoalto: He looks back to JJ once more.

Jono "JJ" Jackson [Night]: He looks at Karlos and smiles a death-look. "Stay put, sweetie. This won't take long." He stands up, quickly pocketing the gun as he does so, and looks Viktor in the eye, coming within inches of his face. "Look, shit-for-brains, this doesn't involve you, and if it does, I'd suggest you un-involve yourself, before you get hurt."

Karlos Basoalto: He moves only his hand. Slowly. Stealthily. Sliding it into his pocket.

Viktor Blackburn: "This does involve me. More than you know. Now sit." *stresses sit* "And we'll discuss things like civil people, rather than like hoodlums."

Karlos Basoalto: 2,3,8,3,7,

Viktor Blackburn: ((WP))

Viktor Blackburn: 3,5,9,3,2,8,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Mine was dex+stealth))

Viktor Blackburn: ((I think we lost Ravyn))

Karlos Basoalto: ((*does a Chewie impression. Yawls.*))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((sobs))

Viktor Blackburn: ((I'll be on AIM and ICQ, yell if he comes back))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Waiting on the two others))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((lo))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Rolling Per+Alert for JJ))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 10,6,1,8,9,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Arse!))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He sits down, seemingly against his will, his eyes narrowing at Viktor's action. Meanwhile, he catches a hint of motion from Karlos, and his eyes flick that way.

Viktor Blackburn: "Now, are you going to be civil, or am I going to make you be civil?"

Karlos Basoalto: He frowns thoughtfully at Viktor. He knows Dominate when he sees it, that's for sure.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He sneers at Viktor. "Who the fuck are you?"

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie glanced at Victor and smiled, she seemed a lot more at ease and let herself stretch a little.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 5,8,10,2,

Karlos Basoalto: Slowly, carefully, in case JJ thinks he's pulling a gun, he withdraws a handkerchief.

Karlos Basoalto: 10,5,7,5,2,4,

Viktor Blackburn: "That's hardly relevant. What is relevant is that if any of the people at this table are harmed in the next week, you will be held responsible. And it would be the simplest thing in the world for me to make you aware of the repercussions of your action? Do you understand?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He glances at the hankerchief, then shrugs and looks at Viktor. "Listen, asshole, you ain't one of my posse, so you've gotta be Anarch dipshit or Cammie bitch. Either way, this guy isn't your problem...he's one of ours, as a matter of fact. So why don't you go play hide the cock with your buddies while I take my juicebag here home?"

Karlos Basoalto: "Actually, I'm not one of yours." He unfolds the hankie.

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie just smirked at jackson, she licked her lips a little and nodded as he said juicebag.

Viktor Blackburn: "As I said, it doesn't matter who I am. And my statement stands, neither this man nor this woman are to be harmed, and if they are, you will be the one who suffers."

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He looks at Karlos. "Yeah, yeah. Once a blood doll, always a blood doll. I'm sure this guy understands that, don't you?" He grins to Viktor.

Karlos Basoalto: He smiles faintly, blowing his nose before responding "In that case, I believe you people owe Mr. De Witt thirty thousand dollars for reneging on your deal."

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Outside, a car pulls up, and out hops a fairly large, bruiser-type, and a short, slight man with a mop of black hair thrown back from his face, falling in greasy straggles to his shoulder. JJ grins at Viktor as they start heading toward the diner door. "Uh-oh...friends are here. Wanna try that again?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Karlos Basoalto: ((Karlos recognizes the bruiser...he was the bad-ass of Kras's old ghouls. The other guy is a mystery to him.))

Karlos Basoalto: His gaze settles on the two outside, and his hand gropes blindly for his pocket as he tries to stuff the hankie away again. Eventually it just gets dropped on the floor.

Viktor Blackburn: "I'm done here." *shrugs* "Just remember, any harm that comes to them will fall on your shoulders." *turns to Karlos and Cassie and nods his head* "Good night sir, ma'am." *he starts walking out*

Karlos Basoalto: His gaze moves to Viktor, then back to the bruiser.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He chuckles as Viktor starts to walk away. "Promises, promises." He looks to Karlos. "Your knight in shining has left, sweetums...now what?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The two walk into the diner, the bruiser in front of the black-haired guy, and he looks down at Viktor, glaring, as he walks by.

Viktor Blackburn: *Viktor just heads out*

Karlos Basoalto: "Now I guess we go for a ride." He glances to Cassie.

Karlos Basoalto: 1,9,5,8,9,6,8,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The two split off, the bruiser heading for the table while the smaller man looks at the only employee still stupid enough to be in view. "Take a nap," he says to the guy.

Viktor Blackburn: ((good night all, I'd stay, but...well...I'm collapsing over here *waves*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,3,4,7,5,3,

Cassie Raines [Night]: "I.. have to go.. " Cassie tremmored, she stood grabing her coat, "call me Karlos.."

Karlos Basoalto: ((*hugs*))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 8,2,8,7,4,4,7,

Karlos Basoalto: He nods to Cassie.

Adam "Fausto" Smith -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((that was for Fausto's per+alert (with apt= -2 diff) to hear what was going on on the phone when he anwered it.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: And nap the guy does, as he falls to the floor. The black-haired guy, who can't be older then 18 or 19, grins and runs his tongue over his teeth as he approaches. The bruiser stands behind Cassie, looking at JJ. "Who's the puta?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ looks to the big guy, smiling, then to Cassie. "Whoa, whoa, chicky...where ya think you're going? I gave you your chance to leave, and you passed."

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie breathes out slowly looking a little tired of this now.

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((blood strength))

Karlos Basoalto: "Let her go, JJ. What's she going to do? Run to the police?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((Obviously, Fausto has a good hearing of what's going on))

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Cassie Raines [Night]: ((In addition to the first blood for Strength?))

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((yup))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He looks to Karlos and snarls at him. (Presence 2, rolling now)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 9,10,4,7,8,6,

Karlos Basoalto: He starts screaming, backing himself against the wall before turning and physically trying to climb it, his fingernails tearing as he claws at it.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He looks to Cassie, smiling gently as Karlos freaks out. "Now, then, where were we?"

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassies phone went off and she held up an apologetic hand reaching for it. reading the number on the screen

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He looks to the bruiser in annoyance, and the man grabs Cassie's wrist. "Your phone, chica...please."

Karlos Basoalto: He seems to be trying to burrow out through the wall, drawing breath just to scream again.

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((summoning fausto with presence 4))

Cassie Raines [Night]: she let the phone fall from her hand.

Cassie Raines [Night]: 5,8,6,1,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 9,1,5,4,8,5,

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2 sux

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ sighs in annoyance, and swings the butt of the gun around toward Karlos's face. ((Since he's trying to get away, you can roll Dex+Dodge...diff 7, since he's not rationalizing how to.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 1,6,2,7,10,

Karlos Basoalto: 8,8,5,4,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Yay Karlos!))

Karlos Basoalto: Well the incoming gun butt certainly seems to snap him out of it. That or it wore off anyway... He jerks his head aside and faces JJ once more, back pressed against the wall, eyes wide.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He flails correctly out of the way, and JJ rolls his eyes, yelling at Karlos. "Shut up, asswipe, or I'll give you something to scream about." The black-haired guy collects Cassie's phone, and the bruiser releases the hold on her wrist, moving her hand to his shoulder.

Karlos Basoalto: "Are we fucking leaving," he grunts hoarsely, "or are you making the *blah cafe name* your new base of operations? 'Cause let me tell you, kiddo, they don't take well to your kind of fucking scum lurking around on 42nd Street!"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: He gets out of the booth, looking to the other two. "Get him in the car. I wanna talk to chicky here." The bruiser moves to Karlos, smiling widely. "Hola, Karlos. Where you been? We missed you."

Karlos Basoalto: He rises to his feet, glowering at the bruiser. "Cut it with the Spanish, you twat. Your accent fucking stinks."

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie turned and faced the bruiser, "Please dont touch me again without asking.." she smiled pleasantly, fear in her voice.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Roll me a Manip+Subterfuge there, Karlos, to not make that one obvious))

Karlos Basoalto: 5,5,6,9,5,4,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 8,2,7,1,

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((ok, when you tell me she'll arrive, FAusto told her to stay out of sight, so she'l do so.... she will be shieleidng her mind, before she arrives and once there, she'll try to shield Karlos, jsut getting ready to act if needed or something))

Karlos Basoalto: He strides toward the door. "Come on, cuntstain. Before I get away." He snerks slightly at the bruiser.

Karlos Basoalto: ((*gasp* Karlos! Watch your potty mouth!))

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass watched Karlos go. she waved to him a little.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ looks at Cassie and grins. "Ah, that's cute. You think you have a say in the matter." He holds the gun comfortably in his lap. "So, chicky. What's your name?"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The two lead Karlos out and put him in the back of the car, sitting on either side of him. The big guy pulls a .45, the other pulls a straight-razor.

Cassie Raines [Night]: ~spanish~"Are you really spanish?" she ignored her question.

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Arlett: Arlett arrives as they load Karlos into the car. Roll Dex+Stealth to stay hidden.

Arlett: 5,9,5,6,3,9,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ grins. "Me? No. I think hunk-o-meat is, but I'm not sure."

Karlos Basoalto: The moment the cafe door opens just a fraction, he slows, concentrating (Spending a WP). His skin splits, creating a cracked glaze effect across his whole body, his clothing, his hair... Until those cracks spread, becoming darkness and gleaming, iridescent colours.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Ah"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 3,5,1,2,9,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 8,8,10,5,1,10,

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: change plan, first she'll try to with corro one and forces two make the car's engine useless... not fire... she'll just make that nifty tirck of forces two... Electrical chaos once the car is broken, she'll shield Karlos

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The smaller guy looks off in the distance, think he sees something...but it becomes irrelevant when Karlos starts to change.

Karlos Basoalto: Then he's just a swirling column of butterflies that streams up into the night sky.

Arlett: uh...*hiden, watching that.. wow paradox is gonna kcik Karlos...*

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: so yea.. not shielding Karlos, braking car *eyes the butteflies*

Cassie Raines [Night]: "what the hell?" Cass watched Karlos, eyes wide.
Karlos Basoalto: ((1 hour warning afore I have to go to the doc's))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((No, Arlett, because you declared your intention for what you were going to do in the middle the turn in which Karlos changed. So it goes to next turn.))

Arlett: ((ok then *nods* I just was making clear *S*))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: oi! before we go on.. do I roll for the mind shield on Arlett? I did say doing it on her way here...

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Initiative goes as follows: Cassie, Razor-holding Sabbat, Arlett, Karlos, Bruiser, JJ. JJ is going to put a gun to Cassie to stop her from trying to do anythiung; the Bruiser ws holding action. Karlos and Arlett, I know your actions; Razor-holding Sabbat is heading toward Arlett's location. Cassie, your action?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Arlett: ((Yeah))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The two outside draw their weapons, but Karlos is already gone. The bruiser shouts inside. "He's gone!" JJ looks out in shock. "WHAT?!?!?"

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 6,7,

Karlos Basoalto: 3,2,10,4,5,5,2,

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Arlett: ((Roll it))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: that was to break the car...*grins innocently* I can roll tow times, due to arete, so doing

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2,5,

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((oi *snugz* think is only two suxx to break the car))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Okay, people are doing combative things. Gimme Initiatives.))

Karlos Basoalto: They soar up, most of them disappearing onto the rooftops, a few adhering to the wall of the cafe, wings closing to hide their colours.

Arlett: 6,

Karlos Basoalto: 6,

Arlett: ((13))

Karlos Basoalto: ((11))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Arlett, if you're extending, that takes multiple turns. So your first roll is for your first turn))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 7,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2,9,2,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((14))

Arlett: ((tils head... uh.. well I am jsut really doing that... I get in fast casting two rolls, so one is in oen turn and the other roll in the second, so basically Arlett is just doing that, cause she is hiden... well so she thinks...and yup *nods* though woulnd't first roll would be as Karlos truns butterfly like?))

Karlos Basoalto: ((1 hour warning afore I have to go to the doc's))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((No, Arlett, because you declared your intention for what you were going to do in the middle the turn in which Karlos changed. So it goes to next turn.))

Arlett: ((ok then *nods* I just was making clear *S*))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: oi! before we go on.. do I roll for the mind shield on Arlett? I did say doing it on her way here...

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Initiative goes as follows: Cassie, Razor-holding Sabbat, Arlett, Karlos, Bruiser, JJ. JJ is going to put a gun to Cassie to stop her from trying to do anythiung; the Bruiser ws holding action. Karlos and Arlett, I know your actions; Razor-holding Sabbat is heading toward Arlett's location. Cassie, your action?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Arlett: ((Yeah))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: A very tall, very bulky, very scarey man wearing black gloves, a black balaclava, a midnite blue leather jacket, black turtleneck and black cargo pants and combat boots darting up the street toward the corner of 42nd street, doing his best to keep to the shadows and assessing in his head the best way to go at this when he actualy physically reaches the scene.

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((oi, doing two rolls as really is all she has.. she'll spedn a will power on the shiled and two quint to lower diff))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 10,3,

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 5,6,

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: erm blood spend to celerity and punch the guys gun hand, (disarm)

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Arlett: ((So 4 successes))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((I think is a 4 suxx shield... just due to quin lowering the diff))

Arlett -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((*G* thanks!))

Arlett: ((damminly.. Arlett is STILL disguised ...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Okie, Cassie roll Dex+Brawl to disarm in this way.))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 4,8,8,5,5,6,2,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 8,6,8,3,8,7,7,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Yeah. Proclaiming you're wearing a disguise that adds +3 to your stealth diff is not a good idea *G*))

Arlett: ((didnt proclaimed.. rememberd =( *whines*))

Arlett: ((And remember she has arcane 2!))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Roll damage, Cassie; damage, plus a resisted Strength from JJ's side to avoid dropping the gun.))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 3,4,2,7,

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2 sux

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((I think she meant hidden))

Arlett: ((uh??))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((I remember, Arlett. The guy got the succ needed to see you, still.))

Karlos Basoalto: ((No, no, you know what she was wearing at Coney Island *G*))

Arlett: ((oh I wasn't saying for that I saw the roll *nods* I was saying Troo *hides*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,5,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,9,8,4,

Arlett: ((uh... cybernetic scientific things?))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 2,4,10,7,7,10,

Karlos Basoalto: ((*giggles* Anyway, on with the show...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie gets a good shot on his hand, and he curses undr his breath, but he still manages to keep ahold of his gun. Meanwhile, the black-haired Sabbat with the razor in hand starts running toward Arlett's location, grinning evilly.

Arlett: ((Ah!! can I release the magic effect with the frist roll to roll to ace out or flame out the sabbie?))((I know I gotta spend a will to change declared actions.. but as I already rolled... I am checking...))

Karlos Basoalto: ((No, Arlett. You cannot suddenly cut an extended arete roll into a single roll unless you cancel the whole effect))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Arlett starts to work her magic thang, and the Bruiser's hand jerks toward his partner out of nowhere, firing the gun before he can even thnk to resist.

Arlett: ((or not...*blinks*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 4,10,2,7,4,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,3,7,9,7,6,2,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 5,3,6,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((good shot))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The gun roars, striking the guy in the back. He falters forward, the bullet ripping through his body, but it seems to hurt much less then it should, and he keeps stumbling towards Arlett's location.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((JJ rolls WP to change action from holding gun on Cassie to firing gun at Cassie...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 6,5,8,2,5,3,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((You can roll Dex+Dodge with your Celerity action if you want, Cassie))

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((You can only spend WP to change your declared action to a defensive one))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 8,8,7,4,5,8,6,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 9,7,8,1,5,

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((And she doesn't get celerity actions until the turn AFTER she spent the blood to get them. I'll shut up now.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson -> Karlos Basoalto: ((*Blink blink*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Cut what I just said...I had a brain fart. Thanks, Karlos-P. JJ can't change actions to offensive, and Cassie can't use Celerity 'till next turn. *Smacks self*))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((I thought so but i wasnt about to disagree with a dodge))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Wow, that changes the whole scope of changing actions for me. I had always misread that. Anyway...we are onto a new Initiative. We're keeping the old ones for speed...Adam, roll me an Init.))

Karlos Basoalto: 6,5,4,8,5,1,2,

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: Attempting to insinuate into razor-man the outrage of having been assaulted by a turncoat worthless juicebag...

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Okay, Arlett, are you continuing your magic, or dropping it and deciding to dodge? Razor-man will reach you this round if nothing stops him.

Arlett: ((I am dropping it.. I want two actions, dodge AND try to ace out the floor under him...make the ground he is stepping on acid))

Arlett: ((rather first one and then the other....*titls head* if that makes sense... if I can't do both, dodge))

Karlos Basoalto: ((You cannot multitask unless you are using the multitasking rote. So either use Magick, or use mundane actions. You can split the dice pool of mundane actions but you CANNOT form the concentration required to use magick whilst doing anything else unless using Mind 1 - Multitasking.))

Arlett: ((ahhh! dind't know *so points up*))

Arlett: ((Razor guy goes before me, right?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Magic can't be a split action...it's a dodge, then.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Correct))

Arlett: ((*nods^*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Razor guy is going to try and grab Arlett. Cassie?))

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: Kick him in the chest trying to knock him over, (Blood to cel)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((And Adam))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He's going to spend rage for 1 extra action and use his running momentum to tackle Bruiser and knock him into Razor Guy, hopefully bowling them both over so Arlet can run away.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((As Troo pointed out, the rage will give an extra action for next turn, not this one.))

Karlos Basoalto: ((No, Rage is same turn, Celerity is next turn))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Pointed out to me, rather. :P))

Arlett: ((go on!*G*))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((no that's celerity, not Rage.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Oh, I misunderstood what you said, then.))

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Just to make sure that even vampires with Celerity 5 stand no real chance against a shifter *grumbles*))

Karlos Basoalto: ((C'mon people, it's taken 50 minutes to perform one and a half combat turns. Can we speed it up a little?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((The rage isn't helped by Initiative. *Sigh* My bad. Adam, roll it. Bruiser switches to defensive to try and dodge.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((remember it's only dif 4 for a back attack.*G*))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 4,4,9,2,3,6,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 5,6,4,4,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 6,4,6,5,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Kerplowie, as Adam slams into the bruiser, slamming him forward into the guy with the razor. ((Roll Damage, Str+1))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 1,1,4,8,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Razor-man stumbles, falling short of Arlett.

Adam "Fausto" Smith: (Ah at least you can't botch a dam roll *G*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((No need to roll soak, then. *S*)) The bruiser isn't especially hurt, he just loses his balance.

Arlett: (()Ergs)) *yells as she saw the guy running to her and tries to get out of his way just as FAusto slams him off*

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie's kick knocks JJ back, but isn't quite enough to knock him down. Razor-man spends the turn regaining his footing; Arlett is left with only defensive actions, so doesn't act (sowwy). Karlos tries to effect Razor-man, to no avail. Bruiser spends the round geting up; and JJ shoots at point-blank range.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((S'okie. I shoulda remembered, too. Just remember next time. *S*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ's gun goes off, hitting Cassie. ((Roll soak, Cassie.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 3,9,2,9,5,2,6,3,

Karlos Basoalto: ((55 minutes to do two rounds of combat, and the rage/celerity actions haven't been done yet. PLEASE speed up, I have to go to the doc's!))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 5,3,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: For the rage action, he's going to roll over and toss the guy he tackled under the wheels of passing traffic.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((So Cassie takes 3 damage, haved and rounded down to 1 Bash))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Roll it, Adam))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 9,5,1,2,4,9,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((kk Cel action kicking his gun arm to disarm.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((So you grab him and toss him...roill Strength for Damage & DIstance))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: (Spending WP on this))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 1,1,3,

Arlett: ((oi,.,,))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: So, after exerting himself extra-hard, Adam manages to roll the guy on the ground about 1 foot. ((Cassie, roll it))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 4,5,2,8,2,5,3,

Cassie Raines [Night]: 8,2,6,8,7,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((You hit. Strength+1 Damage again, plus succ, plus Potence as auto.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2,5,3,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He growls when he doesn't get the guy off the curb the way he'd planned. Fucking parking meters always in the fucking way!

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((6 5 sux)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The gun goes flying out of JJ's hand, and over the counter.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Okay, new actions. Change of pace. No declaration, then actions. Adam, declare your action, then roll it.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((Spending another Rage for an extra action and leaps to tackle Razor Guy's legs, to keep him from running after Arlett, trying to swing him around and bring him down into the street under the wheels of passing traffic.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Roll the tackle. He'll try and dodge, since he knows you're there, and the bigger threat.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 9,6,8,2,9,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: (So diving from his hands and knees at Razor guy's legs to keep him from continuing after Arlett giving her a chance to run away))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 4,7,4,9,6,5,

: (can a pikey jingle on in?)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Not at the moment, Ita, sorry. Combat in place.))

: (ok. runnin away!)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The Razor-man just manages to jump over Adam's arms, avaoiding his attack. ((Cassie, declare and roll.))

Cassie Raines [Night]: another blood to strength and take out his knee with a swift kick.

Cassie Raines [Night]: 7,4,5,8,5,9,8,

Cassie Raines [Night]: 2,6,3,5,3,5,2,7,6,7,

Karlos Basoalto -> Jono "JJ" Jackson: 4,7,9,4,4,9,9,7,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((5 sux))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((He's dodging by diving for a window.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 3,5,6,8,7,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 4,4,8,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Oh, that's a nice-sounding crack as JJ's kneecap is smashed.

Cassie Raines [Night]: (( :) ))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Also, Cass, you're down to 4 BP in combat Roll Self-Control vs. 8 (love that Brujah-ness))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 5,4,6,7,

Arlett: ((damm...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Razor-man has acted; Arlett, declare & roll))

Cassie Raines [Night]: (uh oh... :) )

Arlett: *gonna run, she isn't physical and will give the otehrs chanse to ask freely, though once she has goten some distance she'll stop* ((And well when that happens, tell what she does))

Arlett: 9,6,3,5,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie's eyes haze over red, and it all becomes a blur.

Adam "Fausto" Smith: Rage action is to follow through on the dive and rol up to his feet between Arlett and Razor Guy, facing Razor Guy.

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 2,4,1,1,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Arlett starts booking the scene, as Karlos drops into lion form, claws & teeth first, on top of the unsuspecting Bruiser. ((500 lbs from 8 feet up; roll Strength +4 lethal damage, Karlos))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((*sighs* Why is it whenever i'm pressed for timee the dice hate me?))

Karlos Basoalto: 9,4,7,8,6,5,2,4,1,9,5,2,8,8,1,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((And mortals can't soak Lethal, so...)) The bruiser doesn't even have time to scream, as Lion Karlos tears into him, leaving a hideous wound.

Adam "Fausto" Smith: Dive, roll. CLANG! "FUCKING PARKING METERS!"

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 1,10,7,

Karlos Basoalto: It be rainin' lions in new york, people.

Adam "Fausto" Smith: Still on the ground and a nice bruise for his trouble.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: JJ is trying to make it out the window, eyes wide as Cassie frenzies; Adam tries to roll to his feet, but has too much momentum, and can't keep his balance. He falls forward again, landing face-first on the ground.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie, roll it.

Cassie Raines [Night]: 10,6,9,9,6,3,2,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((And rolling for JJ to keep from frenzy, as Pyscho-Cassie tries to rip his head off))

Cassie Raines [Night]: (diff?)

Adam "Fausto" Smith: In a panicked voice he points at the lion and says to Razor Guy in a new jersey accent "I WAS TRYIN' TA WARN YA!"

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,9,9,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Go psycho Cassie, Go!))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Ya got him. It was diff 8 to target the head, so you got three successes; strength+3+potence as auto.))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 6,3,10,3,9,9,4,3,

Cassie Raines [Night]: erm 5 sux

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 4,6,7,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Nice! Lethal to the head! You can stay! *cuddles Cassie*))

Arlett: ((Cais broke the Yoyo?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie grabs and pulls, and while she doesn't rip the head off, she bashes him head-first into the table, knocking him unconscious for the moment.

Karlos Basoalto: 4,9,6,3,10,4,1,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((JJ has 3 lethal and 4 Bashing. He is incapacitated for the next round, and Cass is still in frenzy. Adam, declare & Roll))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He grabs Razor guy by the collar and starts running with him, away from Arlett, away from the cafe' and especially away from the lion out of nowhere.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Roll Dex+Brawl. Razor is rolling Dex+Dodge as he tries to run away.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 7,10,7,5,6,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 7,6,1,2,5,7,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Razor-Man ducks under Adam's hands and starts sprinting down the street.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: (Cassie, roll you're attack; prone target, aiming for head, so diff 6))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 8,2,7,10,6,10,10,

Karlos Basoalto: ((Holy shit!))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 7,6,6,6,4,8,1,6,3,5,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Jesus. Roll damage; Strength PLUS SEVEN))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 8 sux

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 9,3,4,

Karlos Basoalto: ((I repeat: Holy Shit!))

Arlett: ((*figures the cassie saying like the vendor in Aladin* would not break, would not break *bang,bang* it broke...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: Cassie grabs ahold of JJ's head, snarls viciously, and rips it right off. Blood sprays, and now, Cassie's a drinkin'. (Target dead, though, so no diablerie chance))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((cool no nasty black stains..))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Arlett, you just about gave me an asthma attack there, I laughed so hard. Arlett, you're still runnin', I take it...Karlos, you did you're thing, right?))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He doesn't get a good hold of the guy cause he's already turning and running so he runs right with him, acting just as scared as Razor Guy.

Karlos Basoalto: His one isn't dead. So he bites its head off.

Karlos Basoalto: 5,9,3,3,5,8,3,6,

Karlos Basoalto: 5,4,7,6,9,5,7,6,

Karlos Basoalto: Yay! Heads all round.

Arlett: ((*giggles* no actualy no running, she wheels on her heels, sliping an acid pil of Jano onto the gun she took from Blaze's house, so the bulet coats with the chemic and shoting at guy running= logic. Chemis reacts with water, blood has water, so when bulet enters body... it burns! *nods*))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Roll Dex+Firearms))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The bruiser's neck goes squish in Karlos's mouth. Yum.

Arlett: ç(ERs will just not to shoot Fusto by accident))

Arlett: 10,5,3,3,6,8,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((So Karlos is biting the head off Bruiser, not Razor Guy, right?))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Correct.))

Karlos Basoalto: ((Yes, I'm biting the one whose guts I'm standing in.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 7,7,9,5,7,9,4,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((What is the damage on this bullet, Arlett?))

Arlett: ((do I roll arete for acid damage?))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((That was per+alert to see who's where doing what as they run))

Karlos Basoalto: ((Yes))

Arlett: ((Ergs.. dunno... I told you by icq she would have grabbed any gun Blaze had handy in his house...))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Yes))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((I am aware of that. But what kind of gun was it?))

Arlett: ((so _I don't know how much is the gun's damage....six is the lessen, on the book so that?))

Arlett: 6,7,

Arlett: (that was magic))((( uh... Alrett uses small guns. Going for book and for the damage the last gun Blaze gave her, I bleive that could be? six?))

Arlett: ((correct four si the less damage))

Arlett: ((player knows "·$· about guns... nothing, at all))

Karlos Basoalto: ((So get on and roll damage))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((6 is the damage for BIG Dirty Harry handguns. Small guns are like light pistols, 4 damage. So 2 Agg Damage, roll 7 dice for gun damage.))

Arlett: 8,9,2,3,3,2,2,

Arlett: ((oww..))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 3,9,8,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: The bullet enters in, and the guy howls in pain at the acid, but no holes are blown out or anything.

Arlett: shit *as the guys isn't holed out by the gun*

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Adam, declare & roll. For the record, everyone is pretty much out of range to go after Razor-man at this point except Adam, and Arlett with the gun. Karlos can spend this turn running toward him if he wants; Cass is busy going psycho.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He hears the gunshot and instinctively grabs the closest thing for cover, which happens of course to be the guy next to him who's already in the path of the bullet. So he grabs him by collar and belt and holds him off the ground as a shield.

Arlett: (nods)

Karlos Basoalto: ((Indeed, there shall be much running, for lo, lions have a land speed of over 30Mph ^^))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Razor is splitting actions to dodge.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((Alsp spending WP))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 4,2,4,5,7,10,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Spending WP too.))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 10,2,9,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Defender wins the tie)) Wow, it's not Adam's night. He grabs the collar, but it's not a solid grab, and he loses it.

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Razor's action is to Vanish from Mind's Eye. Highest Wits+Alertness is Adam's at 7.))

Arlett: ((uh??))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 2,4,2,5,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: And he does no vanishing at all.

Cassie Raines [Night]: (Yipee)

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Arlett, shoot. Karlos is running.))

Arlett: ((ok!)) *slides another pill in!*

Arlett: 4,5,9,4,6,5,

Arlett: ((six for gun damamge?))

Arlett: 9,10,

Arlett: ((that was the magic))

Jono "JJ" Jackson: ((Yes, Arlett.))

Arlett: 6,6,5,7,4,2,

Jono "JJ" Jackson: 3,4,5,

Ravyn: More pain for the Razor, but he's still movin'.

Arlett: *blinks, frowning* shit what's he made of?

Ravyn: ((New Init; Cassie, you can roll Self-Control now. Adam, your action?))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 3,3,3,7,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((could i have spent a wp if i had thought of it?))

Ravyn: ((if you had dclared befor,e yeah))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((KK))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((KK))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He grabs Razor and yanks him into an alley away from the lion and out of the line of fire of Arlett, scooping him up and running with him.

Ravyn: ((Roll it; he's not dodging.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 3,10,9,4,4,6,

Ravyn: Adam grabs the stumbling man and pulls him into the alleyway. His action is to try and break free, then Vanish again.

Ravyn: ((Adam, roll me Strength to resist his split Str+Brawl.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((He's actually carrying him))

Ravyn: 7,7,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 3,9,7,

Ravyn: ((He's still trying to break free.))

Ravyn: He struggles, but Adam's still got him.

Ravyn: Arlett, they're out of view now. Action?

Arlett: ((so out of range!)) *she blinks, confused, and startes walking up, why,.. well there are corpese here! and uh.. wait a lion!!!!! *shit!

Arlett: *well move over, cause she isn't sre what to do now.... mean.. no Karlos, just lion running and a crasy Cass and uh.... *

Ravyn: ((Only 1 corpse outside, but the cafe is a real mess. Oh, yeah, and the lion, who is still chasing after.))

Arlett: ((see?!!!! ))*so movig over to where Fausto dissapeared, with some amoutn of caution!*

Adam "Fausto" Smith: Ok, first the parking meter. then the other parking meter. then the various slips and dropping lions and fucking shooty people. He's had it, and simply grabs a stake from under his coat and says "You stoopit fuck, I'm trying to ~save~ you here!" And he plunges it into him.

Ravyn: ((So, new round. Cassie, Self-Control. Adam, action?))

Cassie Raines [Night]: 10,4,5,6,

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((YES!))

Ravyn: ((Roll it.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: ((spending Rage for an extra action, spendign wP for the staking))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 4,3,8,6,9,

Ravyn: So Cassie manages to calm down for the moment, realizing that she's covered in blood, as is the cafe. And JJ's hevily decayed body is there, in fresh new clothes.

Ravyn: ((There's the succ you needed, roll damage.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 6,5,1,6,1,6,4,9,

: ((Back!))

Ravyn: 7,3,10,

Ravyn: Adam hits the spot, but can't quite penetrate the rib cage.

Karlos Basoalto: ((I'll post it here to avoid telling everyone the same thing *G*. Got to the doc's right behind a guy who was cancelling his wife's PM appointment. So I stole that appointment right away and came back *G*. Took me a while 'cause the car got egged last night so I was washing that off to stop it ruining the paintwork))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He shoves it in harder as his rage action, putting his weight behind it.

Arlett: ((*blink*s but it took you like.. tne mins!))

Ravyn: ((Awesome, Karlos. Adam, I'm going to say you've already got it there, he's not resisting, roll damage.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 4,7,9,9,2,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 10,7,3,

Ravyn: 9,6,2,

Ravyn: The stake slams in, and the guy goes limp as lion Karlos turns around the corner.

Ravyn: ((AAAAND...combat over. *Whew*))

Arlett: *really, really freaked out Arlett is moving over, when lion goes on corner Fausto is at she does yells* FAUSto THE LION! *well she doens't know the lion is tamed *G*

Karlos Basoalto: ((Hurrah! *applauds*))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He stakes the vamp and pulls his gun, growling at the lion and whoever else comes down the fucking ally. Still speaking with the jersey accent. "You fucking try anything I'll fucking kill you both."

Cassie Raines [Night] -> Ravyn: ((is cassie full? and healed))

Arlett: ((*lol* yay! we won!..*dances* erg.. right?))

Karlos Basoalto: He barrels to a halt seeing Adam has it under control, and splits into a thousand butterflies, shooting up into the darkness once more, one remaining on Adam's shoulder.

Arlett: ((uh!? .. did I even arleady got into the allye to freak out more?))

Karlos Basoalto: ((No, now I have to fight Cass to make sure she doesn't steal my trophy head.))

Ravyn -> Cassie Raines [Night]: ((Yep))

Ravyn: ((Yes, Arlett.))

Adam "Fausto" Smith: "Fuck!" He says, shuddering as the fucking lion turns into fucking BUTTERFLIES! and simply throws Razor over his shoulder and starts jogging away down the alley, holstering his gun and putting his hand on th stake to make sure it doesn't work it's way out.

Arlett: ((*G* thanks!)) *so, firlst nearly jumps off when the lion turns into butterflies.. damm. and then stares blankly at Fausto* Fausto?

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 7,9,10,2,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: 9,2,8,6,4,2,

Adam "Fausto" Smith: He disappears into the shadows and is ~gone~

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cassie walked quietly to the door and looked out into the street, luckily her penchant for black made the blood on her actual clothes less noticable, she would have to do something about her face though,

Karlos Basoalto: A butterfly swirls down and lands on Cassie's shoulder.

Ravyn: ((Okie, I gotta go, guys...clean-up time. Any clean-up being done?))

Ravyn: ((Cass, you're literally covered in blood. Blackj clothes won't hide it much. *S*))

Arlett: *really, stares the way Fasuto just left to.... after threatining her... really she is CONFUSED, frowning, pressing her lips toguether really tight*

Arlett: ((guess)) *slowly backs out the allye, blinking, looking around, then the way Fausto went to, around*....

Ravyn: ((Okie, guys. I've got a news report to post, then bed to go to. Later!))

Arlett: *she blinks as her cle rings, and blinks staring at it, frowning and taking a while in comeing with an answer to type off*

Cassie Raines [Night]: erm cass tries to get the body to a dumpster in the alley and dump it, heads for her car, which is up a street away, she tries to look inconspicous.

Karlos Basoalto: ((With a guy in the crowd yelling "Cut! Print it!" and realisation slowly moving through people it was all a movie shoot (*cough*)...))

Arlett: ((thanks RAvyn!)) *and the kid frowns at her cel really, realy, really disturbed*

Arlett: *and then she notices Cass dragging a behaded corpes, and her eyes wide, taking a loooooooooong moment in realise she has another message*

Cassie Raines [Night]: As Cass enters the alley she looks to arlett in the distance but doesnt call to her.

Arlett: *typing in some kind of daze, for a few seconds fighting tears out her eyes*

Arlett: *perking and staring at Cass, somewhat in shock, well she STILL gets disturbed by this scenes*

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass looked around confused.

Cassie Raines [Night]: 10,

Arlett: *and bakc goes her eyes at the phone*

Cassie Raines [Night]: she notices something on her shoulder. "oh hello" she sounds edgy.

Ravyn: ((Movie shoot is all well and good, until someone finds the JJ bits all over the diner. *S*))

Arlett: *and she looked back up the begiing of the alley, really seh wasn't s far into it, and then back at her phone still in somewhat of a daze now that the danger was over*

Karlos Basoalto: ((Give us time to sort that out *G*. We ain't leaving yet!))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((lol dumpin him in a bin as we speak))

Ravyn: ((That's why I was asking for a quick summary of clean-up. I was posting the news report.))

Arlett: *seh actually reaches with the hand she is holding the gun still to rub off her eyes, then blinks and puts the gun away, lookign at her cel yet again*

Cassie Raines [Night]: Cass sighs and heads for the mangled body in the street, heaving it onto her shoulder as best she could and moving it to the dumpster too.

Cassie Raines [Night]: "Arlett!" Cass shouted the girl.

Arlett: *sheperks as Cassies goes for the other corpse, closing her eyes and really, just really, staring at her a second and starting to head off, closing her eyes tight not to get sick, or burst out crying*

Karlos Basoalto: A butterfly drifts to Arlett's shoulder.

Arlett: *and she stares at her cel phone again, do saying aloud* fuck you! ^*thought is said with more hurt then anger, typping onto it*

Ravyn: ((So, someone correct me if I'm wrong here. The bodies are being dumped in the dumpster, and the blood is taken care of, the movie bit works, and that's it, right?))

Karlos Basoalto: ((Fingers crossed we're torching the dumpster))

Cassie Raines [Night]: ((gonna set the dumpster on fire...))

Arlett: *and then she flitches* Karlos? *very low, still really fighting not to burst out crying at what ever was being messaged at her phone*
