[CoC] Nocturnum -- Part I - Chapter 1 Snowflake Valey [Completed]

As Doc appears outside of the hotel, he can't escape from it, the carnage even reaches here. Two bloody tracks lead through the snow, like two bodies were dragged, leading around the hotel to the back. As Doc hurries towards the car, another body comes into view, impaled on a roadsign and its hart carved out leaving a large gaping hole. But he dismisses it, ontouched by the reek of death he get's in his car and starts it.

Thank god I didn't forget my keys for a change... Thank you Mary for watching over me... We'll see eachother again... but maybe another day... maybe just yet another day..

In the meanwhile all hell is breaking lose in the hotel, where yells and cries echo through the foyer and upper hall, piercing the snarling and gnawing sounds of something hideous.

Jason moves forward while firing his gun, but then hearing his friends cries from beneath it he throws himself onto the burning beast while drawing his blade.

The Beast releases its prey, trying to shrug off whatever just lept on his back. But this would be the oppertunity you have all been waiting for, and James seizes it. He quickly but carefully strikes again with the disc. More black blood gushing over him as blue light erupts from his hand again. Not as bright, but it's there all the same. It feels strangely comforting to you all and enspires your battle fury even more. Even Ross feels his mind clear and his senses snap back into focus.

Surprised by the strike in his abdomen, the werewolf stumbles back throwing Jason off him but only to be met with a chair right in its contorted face. The wood shattering in its face drives the wolf back. Flames still scourching its furr it falls back and scrambles back up. Knowing it met his match it tries frantically to escape but doing so it opens itself up to an attack when it dives past James. But surprised by the sudden turn of events James strike misses, allthough barely.

While muttering your curses about the beast escape as you all hurry to your feet, you are stunned with surprise before you can pursue.

The wolf making his dashing escape for the front entrance, the way the first werewolf came in. Is flung back into the foyer as the front port totally shatters. Behind rain of glass and blood appears the running engine and elderly grinning face of Doc behind the front window of his car.

This wolf ain't going anywhere.

Still dazed by being frontally rammed by a car the wolf tries to get up, but falls back onto the ground. Heavily dazed but it still draws breath.

[:D Elderly behind the wheel :D]

"Leave it die a slow death. That way we'll have time before someone, probably I, turn into the next one," James says as he goes to get in the car, "If we're lucky its spine is broken and there are no wheel chair ramps for miles around. Hey the elders said they'd find us didn't they? They're taking way too long. Drop me off near my Hum Vee, k?"
 

Jason gets up, groaning, and notices his knife stickign into the wall right beside his head
"Sh*t, that was too close.." He mumbles as he gets up, grabbing his weapons again and putting the switchblade away (they're made for quick stowing and drawing) as he moves forward to the werwolf, pointing his gun at it from about 5-10 feet away "Dudes, if that's really a werewolf don't they, like heal really fast or something?" He keeps his glock trained on the beast, ready to fire if it gets up.

"Don't worry about it! If D&D has any truth to it the fire will hopefully prevent it from regenerating. Don't take my word for it though, I guess its like the beladonna issue. Anyway, I reckon that if you kill it someone else'll catch it, like me!" James says, "So I reckon let it cook slowly in its own juices while we flee. Just a suggestion though."
 


Doc rolls down the window. "Get in the car! Get in the damn car!!"

As soon as his friends are in the car, he's going to take off. If the Beast starts to move, Doc will try and roll over it again. And again. And again.
 

Doc is in the car which just crashed into the front port. The rest is in the foyer and the wolf between them and the car. And it's getting back up and pulling its wits back together...
 



Ross snaps out of it only to find that he has wet his pants. Embarrassed and still scared he runs in the direction of the kitchen to hopefully lock himself into somewhere safe.
