The ghoul writhed and flailed beneath the viciousness of the combined assault. The tendrils that had earlier struck Baron turned on Chloe instead. They lashed out in blind desperation, striking over and over again. Outrage mingled with terror and a single thought pierced through the rest. HELP...

The ghoul thrashed haphazardly and struck out blindly. Where Chloe tore free one writhing appendage, another grew in its place. Another struck Baron in the side of the neck, piercing his throat. He ripped it free with one hand, and drove the barbed spike into the ghoul's eye. Using the ghoul's...

Baron seemed unphased by the development going on nearby, and had instead zeroed in on the ghoul that was using the stone pillar to get back to its feet. He drew his gun and opened fire on it as he moved. The bullets angered it, but did not seem to be hindering it in the least. Baron never so...

"Tuanta diambhal," Desmond swore under his breath. It wasn't often that he reverted to Iverian, but there wasn't a curse in Lutetian that properly projected the depth of his emotional state in that moment. He hesitated only a moment more before he forced himself with gritted teeth to turn from...

Desmond reached the doorway into the building before he realized Chloe was not following. In fact she was frozen in place, and he saw the wolf clawing its way out. The shift was coming on too fast for her to reign it in. "Chloe!" he shouted. Part of him knew the shift was too far underway...

"No you are not going to die," Colette replied gently. "Amara has left to find James. Soon you will be back with your family. We do not know the city, and Amara could not search for them during the daylight. I did not know of a faster way to bring help." There was worry in her eyes though as...

For a moment the pair where in free-fall and a rush of adrenaline flooded Julienne. Her eyes where a swirl of amber as she braced for the impact. It came quickly, but she held on tight and kept her head tucked forward against him. Timing and positioning was everything, and hers was spot on. As...

The hours passed with Aimee in and out of consciousness. Her brief periods of wakefulness were largely due to the pain of her injuries that even unconsciousness did not rid her of. Colette's worry had not abated through the day, and in fact only deepened when Aimee's temperature had begun to...

"If it doesn't work, we fix you the old fashioned way," Jesse replied reassuringly. "We should know within a few minutes if there's any change." He didn't reply to Jimmy's self-deprecating remarks. If the kid pulled through this, he was going to need an altogether different kind of doctor for...

Some time later.... Drip. Drip. Drip. The sound of the water nearby found its way into Bastien's awareness during brief moments of consciousness. The crumbled wall, and the broken waterline. Pain, so much pain. When had the spray of water turned to a steady dripping? Distantly he registered...

Baron simply raised an eyebrow at Skye as she displayed what appeared to be concern for his well-being. It was not something he was used to experiencing. He was the one who protected the pack. Seeing others look at him as one to be protected was... an oddity. He didn't particularly like the...

The bear gave a snort and there was something almost familiar in the borderline derisiveness of the expression. It made no move to follow, or to circle around the building. It instead shook itself off, bits of broken glass tinkling against the pavement as they fell free from the beasts fur...

"Alright," Jesse said. "Don't worry about it. We'll get you fixed up." He sighed inwardly though. Without knowing what the kid took, he couldn't know what drug interactions may occur. "I'm going to give you a dose of adrenaline and some metabolism boosters, to see if we can give your...

Draaven's impressive processing speed and reaction time came into play again as Rhetta was turned into a living projectile. He braced and snagged her from the air with one arm. Her momentum spun him about and he dropped lower to the ground to help maintain his center of gravity and to put him in...

Okay, so on one hand the information provided by Jimmy was useful. On the other hand. Fuck. He couldn't say it outloud, but damn. Newly turned, so no baselines to work. Extensive physical trauma, supressed regeneration, and the only thing that could make this worse... "Do you know what what...

[To: Devon][From: Baron]Talk to Ragenard about the computer. Baron wasn't generally very forthcoming with information, and today was no different. He noted the address and sent another quick message, this one to Ragenard. It was brief, but marginally more informative than his replies to Devon...

[To: Devon]You will be if you don't hurry. I need you to send me the location of Bastien's phone. He didn't bother asking Devon if he could do it. He knew Devon had a lack for such things. Devon was no doubt used to Baron's rather dry sense of humor by now, so the tone of the messages wasn't...

"Not much, but it doesn't look good," Desmond answered. He tossed Chloe his phone as he finished getting dressed himself. He took only enough time more to holster his gun as he made for the front door. Baron stood outside, texting something on his phone. [To: Devon]I need you to do something...

Jas has informed me that he will be unable to continue the roleplay at this time. I will be getting Xandre explained out indefinitely, and his other characters can simply be assumed to be off doing their own things. This should soften any potential disruptions, and allow Jas to return at a later...

Draaven responded to Rhetta's instructions without a word. He was fluid and adaptive. Just as quickly as he had taken point while it was necessary, he smoothly fell back for Rhetta to resume command. He was quick on his feet, and the lethality that lay hidden within him was easy to overlook...
