[QUOTE="talien, post: 4788099, member: 3285"] [b]Wild Hunt: Part 8 – The Thing in the Alley[/b] Hammer pulled the Civic to a screeching halt in front of a dead-end alley leading off of Wooster Street facing Hob's Court. A police car was already parked in the alley, lights flashing, blocking the agents’ progress. There was a dark figure in a black overcoat and broad-brimmed hat. A limp body was in its arms, and three young men were at the far end of the alley behind the killer. They were on their knees, shouting “Master!” “Looks like the kids found their vampire,” said Jim-Bean. Two police officers were firing their pistols as they ran down the alley. The thing didn’t wait. With a casual swipe of its arm, it dismembered the first cop. Its snake-like tongue shot out and pierced the head of the second cop. He fell to the ground, dead. Three more police cars pulled up around them. “Wait here,” rasped the killer to the three Goths. Then it slowly, casually turned to face the agents. “Fire!” someone shouted. The cops, crouching and running towards the abandoned cruiser in the alley, unleashed a hailstorm of gunfire on the figure. It shimmered as it advanced, unhurried, until it reached the front of the police car in the alley. With a mighty heave, it hurled the police car end over end. It rolled up in the air and landed on the other cops, smashing some and scattering the few who were fast enough to get out of the way. There was just one problem: the upside-down cop car was now blocking the cops escape. Hammer and Jim-Bean fired around the vehicle as the black-clad figure hurled policemen all over the place. Hammer and Jim-Bean hopped over the car and ran down the alley. All that was left were dismembered bodies. A patch of mist dissipated away, with a remnant stench of decaying flesh. “Jesus,” whispered Hammer. Every policeman involved in the fray was killed. Their heads were crushed, their necks broken, whole limbs torn off. The legs and pelvis of one man had vanished, bitten in two like a cookie. As the agents took in the scene, a brilliant light illuminated them. “I’m Nina Juarez, here at the crime scene of the recent attack by the SoHo Killer…” She craned her neck to try to get a better look at the bodies littered in the alley, but the ruined police car mercifully blocked her view. Archive rolled up his sleeves. “I know how to take care of her.” Jim-Bean put one hand out. “I’ve got this one.” He hopped over the car. “Nina Juarez,” said Juarez, introducing herself quickly. “Are you one of the federal agents involved in this case? What happened back there?” Jim-Bean nodded. “Yes, and all will be made clear. But this is a crime scene, we can’t talk here.” He put one hand over the camera and pushed Juarez’ microphone with the other. “We can conduct an interview tomorrow night at 8 p.m. at this location,” and he whispered the location in her ear. Juarez blinked and nodded as more police cars screeched onto the scene, ushering the GNN reporter away. “What did you tell her?” asked Hammer. “I have no idea,” said Jim-Bean. “But that should keep her busy for at least one night.” [/QUOTE]
