Cursing loudly as another stranger sought to land on the stage, Kerwick observed Hastel fighting to make it through the crowd and Bruce leaping from table to table dodging the hands that sought to hold him. Kerwick could also see Hastel's face was red from anger, frustration and gods knew what else from the situation.
Alin and Nicolai both race for the backstage door and which hand pushed it open neither one could tell, but it swung open easily all the same.
[sblock=Inside the room]The coppery smell of blood and foul smell of urine are the first thing the two men register. On the floor and seeming resting in a pool of its own blood is the first body. Bloody footprints and drag lines are visible coming away from this body, heading towards you both. The second body, a female gnome dressed in finely tailored leathers, sits in a chair by the open back window, her face forever frozen in a look of pure terror and her hand locked around the grip of a bloody straight razor.[/sblock]
Landing on the stage, Bruce sees the two men staring inside the doorway and begins to advance upon them when Hastel's angry voice shouts again from near the stage.
"I swear by the gods I will have the watch haul you all away."
Again from his stool, Kerwick could see the patrons near the stage backing away from it as if they wanted nothing to do with the three men who openly defied the wishes of the owner.
