First Post
Fate briefly considered using his intangibility to hit them from behind, but soon realizes that Soundtrack's zone of silence might accidentally catch him and render him almost powerless. He decides to line up behind the first wave.
Soundtrack muffles the sound on the door and Granite crashes through. Granite clears most of the way through the large gemology lab and toward the corner around which the safe is located. Lawrence, in swarm form, enters moments behind Granite, scurrying along the ceiling and walls. Soundtrack makes one last effort to subdue the trumpet-like fanfare of his own aura, and then charges in alongside Danko. Fate floats in last, using a little elevation to survey the scene.
At the front of the safe, which just is visible from this side of the room, a single man is kneeling on the floor, cutting away at the bottom of the safe with a torch. Rounding the side of the safe is another man, dressed in a fine charcoal grey suit and wearing a fedora. He looks up in surprise and holds his (empty) hands out in a gesture for the group to stop. He's trying to say something, but it's lost in Soundtrack's area of silence.
Granite immediately recognizes the man in the Fedora as Abram Schott, the demon hunter he met in the bottom of an old coal mine only a few weeks back. Fate is pretty certain that's who the man is as well, though he's going only by old photos that were dug up during the group's research on the guy. Lawrence cannot identify him from his angle on the ceiling (hat's brim is blocking the way) and the other two probably don't know enough about him to make a connection to the group's previous activities.
Granite, the closest to Schott, can kinda read his lips to make out something along the lines of, "No, wait!"
