Vampire: The Masquerade - Who Wants To Live Forever?

The Brewery 2:45am

As Meredith comes to the roof she see's the torch. "It's over there!" she points.

Koln pulls our Socrates and says something about tools but than seems to agree to try and put the fire out. Meredith sees the Camarilla, pulls out her claws and makes for the torch.

And their Initiative Rolls.

OOC: Sorry guys, really don't feel like laying out the battle right now. I got in late so we'll have to wait till tomorrow.

The Cave 2:45am

OOC: Invoking the Ventrue powers of a fortified stomach! (knowing full well that she will have to throw it back up later)

Clover caught her lip in her teeth as she regarded Lacey, and wondered if the girl was trying to say that there was more to this bar than met the eye. Before she could respond, however, Maureen came back with their drinks. The smell of the wines pulled at Clover's nose, bringing up memories from days long gone by.

She took the white and swirled it by its stem, and slipped the proper bills out of her pocketbook, placing them on the table, "No, just the one drink, thank you. We're here for the show." She said the last part vaguely; was she talking about people watching, or was there actually a show going on?

For appearances, she took a sip of the wine and let it trickle down her dead throat. The juice was bitter on her tongue, and too sweet. It bit and burned, but she was determined to swallow. It tasted like home.

OOC: It's not a Ventrue ability, it's actually a feat you would need to take, just like "blush of health". Without this feat you have to spend 1 bloodpoint to keep from throwing up and food tastes awful to you.

So Clover spends 1 bloodpoint so she doesn't puke everywhere.

Lacey eyes her glass of red wine warily, swishing it around in the glass.

Maureen gives Clover an odd look "What show? If you mean staring at these jackasses I bet I can think of at least a hundred better things you can do in the city than that tonight."

OOC: *frustrated*

Clover gave Maureen a warning glare for that, glanced at Lacey, then placed her glass gently down on the table, muttering a French expletive between her teeth. She grabbed her pocketbook and began to rise, clearly beginning to become irritable over the waste of time visiting The Cave has been. First they started out their night by running down some sort of crazy katana-wielding vampire hunter, and now they get to their destination and they can't even find who and what they're looking for? Not to mention the unnecessarily pointed response of a mere waitress. Of course there were a hundred things she could be doing this evening! But no; Koln and now that damned Meredith had to drag her out on a while goose chase on behalf a womanizing arsonist who apparently never had the good sense to keep that magical necromancing wand of his in his pants....

She stood and faced Lacey, "Unless you have something useful to tell me, then let's go. We're wasting time here and I get the feeling Koln's probably at home trying to swim the English Channel in our bathtub again, or something."

OOC: This is feeling like a big waste of time at this point. The club wasn't exactly what I was expecting. If there's no storyteller help here, Clover's leaving. >.<*

 

[Strider_Koln]

As they approach the fire, Koln whispers to Meredith, "This is very bad, but I do not intend to retreat. I thought I knew how this movie went, but I guessed the wrong play. I failed you, but God has more planned for you, mon ami. The second the fires rise, you run. There is someone I'm hunting... and he lives down below. There is also someone I'm looking for, and I will find her. Our destinations are not the same."

He quickly hands her Socrates. "Take good care of him. Feed him. He likes that, and LISTEN to him. He really likes that, as would you."

He quickly hands her Socrates. "Take good care of him. Feed him. He likes that, and LISTEN to him. He really likes that, as would you."

Meredith stops short of going for the torch at Koln's words. Meredith takes little Socrates in her claws, trying to take care not to hurt the little one who thankfully happily runs up to her right shoulder.

"Koln? Wait, what? I'm not going anywhere unless your coming with me. I've never left anyone behind and I'm not about to start now. If we must fight, we fight together. I don't plan to fight, I just want to stop that fire. Now were wasting time!"

"By the way, the Sheriff's strings ARE not loose. Allons-y!"

So the fight begins... but here's some noncanon flavor text because jelly-side-down, am I right?

[sblock] Maybe time moves sooo slowly to us because we're vampires. It's times like these, when I'm in limbo, I start to think odd things, you know what I mean mon ami? For example, even though the Malleus Maleficarum is VERY specific (and graphic) about the Devil and demonspawn such as ourselves NOT being able to breed, what if a vampire and a human did have a child. Oui, that's right. "Nature finds a way" as they said in that picture with ze dinousaurs, Firefly.

Anyway, what if a vampire and a human did have a half-human, half-evil bastard child? Do you think, at that moment, a bunch of VERY effeminate Italian vampires, all FABULOUSLY dressed by the Way, will all board a plane for America and try to kill the unholy family? Can you imagine THAT security plane check? And maybe we DO sparkle... okay, I'm speaking nonsense. God's light DESTROYS that which is foul,He DOES NOT merely turn the accursed into a Disco Ball.

The Brewery 2:45am

As soon as Koln and Meredith get to the top of the roof, they see five guys up there, a burning torch on the ground behind them. The ones nearest to the torch are carrying shotguns. Sheriff is at the edge of the roof with his lackey and he turns to see Koln and Meredith emerge.

"Well lookie here boys, the fresh recruits have come to spoil the party. I guess I can stay and watch you boys beat 'em to a pulp. Don't worry 'bout killin' 'em, just don't let 'em put out that fire!"

To be continued on the battle field!
