"Shit," the shaggy werewolf spat at the ground, hand in a fist. He held it up at the child. "Uh. You didn't hear that. But are we ready? Come on. We can't waste even a second."

Raquette self-consciously tightened her borrowed pair of Snow's shorts before simply nodding to Ulrich. With one hand, she also took one of Sophia's. With the other, she typed. "Ready."

Moon light filled the room a pile of pillows and several blankets lay piled up slowly moving as if breathing, Damon lay buried under the feathered mound. Hearing a ring a slight groan comes from the lump and a hand pops out feeling for a phone before pulling it in to the pillowy abyss. "*Growl* Yeah?"

"Damon?" Bastien's voice spoke through the phone. "We need you at Reinhard's. The Scions hit us hard. It's bad. How soon can you be here?"

His eyes widened and he sat up, seeming knocking over his makeshift pillow fort. "I'll be there in 10 minutes." he stated as he lept out of bed and headed for the closet. "I'll see you in a few."

"Alright. Be careful," Bastien answered before he hung up.

Eliza was soaking in a hot bath, she was glad to have found a semi-decent hotel to stay in seeing as she couldn't afford much for the time being. She had difficulty sleeping, the worry from earlier filled her, she was still on another packs territory and it was only a matter of time. She had regretted giving out her cell phone number but it was all she could do to keep suspicion off her. Suddenly the phone rang, she looked at the screen "Dammit, I was hoping they wouldn't call me...I was hoping they'd forget about me." the call went to voicemail and as soon as she began to relax it rang again. By the third call she decided to pick it up, in a very relaxed almost sleepy voice she responded "Hello?"

Bastien's voice crackled over the phone, and wherever he was his reception didn't seem too good.

"What the fuck is it with people and not answering their phones tonight," he said. "There's some shit going down. Where are you?"

There was a weight of urgency to his voice, and from the sound of it he was driving.

She paused for a moment in her head she was kicking herself for answering the phone but it was too late now "I'm staying at that hotel on Main, room 101. Why?" she shifted in the bath and laid back, she could hear the urgency in his voice and wondered what was going on.

"I know the place, it's not too far out of my way," Bastien answered. "I'll swing by."

A moment later the phone hung up.

She sighed and sat in the water for a few minutes, she was procrastinating, postponing the inevitable..."I'm sure he know the truth, I'm sure he found out." lifting her foot out of the water she kicked the drain lever and the water began to drain from the bath making slurping noises as the level lowered, slipping under the surface she rinsed her hair and then hopped out of the tub "I better get dressed." Wrapping a towel around her she pulled some clean clothes from her bag and swiftly dressed and began wringing out her long wet hair.

It wasn't long when a heavy knocking came at the door.

"Eliza?" Bastien called out.

Not quite as ready as she hoped, barefoot she walked to the door and looked through the peephole, she saw Bastien standing there. Leaning her head against the door she let out a sigh and then opened the door. Standing there with a towel in hand and dripping wet hair she stood to the side to allow Bastien in.

Bastien stepped in, but he seemed in a hurry. He moved to the nearby window to get a look outside where he had parked the van but saw no sign of trouble or that anyone had followed him.

"Do you own a gun?" Bastien asked.

Though at first glance Bastien seemed unharmed, the sleeves of his shirt were in taters, and there was dried blood stains in the fabric.

"The scions are out in force tonight," he explained. "Ragenard needs us to swing by the Den. We had people there, they're not answering the phone."

Eliza stood there in shock, she had assumed wrong. She swallowed hard before responding "Yes, I have several firearms with me." She shut the door and sat on the bed switly pulling on her socks and boots before dropping to the floor and grabbing out a large locked box like a wardrobe trunk. She opened it and pulled some clothes out revealing various firearms at the bottom ranging from semi-automatic rifles to pistols and a shotgun along with a few knives. She stood up and began braiding her wet hair "Take your pick." At the finish of her braid she pulled out another small trunk from under her bed and opened it to reveal ammunitions. It wasn't enough for an army but was a surprising amount for multiple people.

Bastien didn't hesitate in retrieving one of the pistols. He loaded it swiftly before tucking it into the waistband of his pants so he could start loading shells into the shotgun next.

"How well do you heal?" he asked.

Fire flashed in her eyes"I heal pretty well, assuming they can even hit me." She slipped her holster in her waistband and her shoulder holster on before loading 3 pistols up and putting on her coat. Grabbing a few magazines she tucked them in their rightful place then began loading up her AR-15 and magazines. She smiled "I have something else you may like." She walked over to the closet and pulled out a long heavy case which she set on the bed, flipping open the lid she smirked "Serbu .50 BMG with a 4x-12x scope can blow the limbs off an enemy at a mile out easy. If you're looking to cause mass death and carnage."

"How well is well?" Bastien asked. Among their kind that could mean anything. "And any allergies? Silver?"

He glanced over at the Serbu before shaking his head.

"Leave it. We'll be on the move. If we get into a scrap, we want short range stopping power," he explained.

She locked the case back up and put it back in the closet "Takes me a couple hours to heal depending on the wound...and no I don't have any allergies." She grabbed several knives and slipped them into hidden spots on her person.

"Good," Bastien answered. "If we run into trouble let me draw their fire, then you take them down. Bullets don't slow me down for long, so better if they're shooting at me instead of you. Don't engage unless we have to though. We could be walking into a trap, and I don't want to rush in blindly. We go, we scout the area. If our people are there we get them out. If not, we head back to Reinhard's."
