[QUOTE="Graf, post: 3968778, member: 3087"] [b]Biggs[/b] The vehicle sounds big. It takes Biggs close to the entire 45 minute car ride to get one of his thumbs free of the heavy chain covering it. Eventually the vehicle turns onto an extremely bumpy road. It drives slowly, even with an impressive set of shocks the Biggs' coffin is slammed up and down. The bumping and slamming gives Biggs a lot of opportunities to pull at his hand. As the vehicles come to a stop he's managed to free his entire hand. The coffins are manhandled off the truck and into ground. Biggs can make out a vampire with a red red scarf over his face (Nice) directing the men to move the coffins down into some sort of building and down into a basement. He's getting ready to undo them. A nasal voice says "[COLOR=SandyBrown]20 bucks says they go all crazy on you when you unstake 'em[/color]" "[COLOR=Red][b]Oscar[/b]. You're not supposed to be here.[/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]Viper man. My names Viper. You know. Like the snake.

"[COLOR=Red]Did I say I was gonna tell the prince?[/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]No.[/color]" the voice from the corner is small.

A thin shaft of light strikes Biggs' facewhen, "[COLOR=SandyBrown]Who taught you Auspex?[/color]" "[COLOR=Red]What?[/color]" Nice spins around. He sounds surprised this time, not angry. "[COLOR=SandyBrown]You totally see me.[/color]" "[COLOR=Red]You're. Talking. To. Me![/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]Yeah but I wasn't and I just moved and you turned around and you were looking at where I am now.[/color]" Nice turns away from Oscar's voice and back towards the case. "[COLOR=Red][b]Oscar...[/b][/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]I ain't gonna tell anybody. I just thought it was cool is all.[/color]" "[COLOR=Red][b]Oscar.[/b] I can't teach you.[/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]I know. I was just saying that it's cool.[/color]" "[COLOR=Red][b]Oscar[/b]... if I could...[/color]" "[COLOR=SandyBrown]No man. Obfuscate is cool man. Way cooler than Auspex.

Brother's Word.[/color]" Nice savagely attacks the case with the crowbar. After several minutes he manages to force the heavy metal. It clatters to the ground with a loud bang. [b]Biggs[/b] stays very still, the stake is partially lodged in his chest. [b]Nice[/b] almost certainly doesn't notice that the vampiric vampire hunter is awake, because he turns quickly to the second coffin. [b]Biggs[/b] is dimly aware that he's not breathing. Now that he's a monster it's almost horrifically easy to stay completely still. Then [b]Nice[/b] stops. He freezes for a minute, head cocked to one side. "[COLOR=Red]Nobody supposed to be here yet.[/COLOR]" He sets the crowbar down on a table and heads out of the room. The walls and ceiling are made entirely of unfinished concrete giving the whole place the feel of a post modern cave. There is a small table in the center of the room, another coffin to the right of [b]Biggs'[/b] is still sealed. Light comes from an construction bulb, hanging from the ceiling. The small room is very still. [/QUOTE]
