Alecia Ryan: *she takes a few steps sideways quickly so as not to be caught in between the approaching Kaeleigh and the pair in front of her*

Ntwadumela: Mel doesn't answer at all, especially with another approaching.

Alecia Ryan: Want some candy? *she says sweetly to Mel.*

Olivia Boehm: Hey... *The child forgotten for the moment as she gives Kae an unsure smile*

Ntwadumela: Al: "Sorry, diabetic." Liv: "THIS one a freind?"

Alecia Ryan: Liar. You're scared...I can tell. *she says to Mel sweetly*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: hey...*quiet soft smile as she gets closer, looking to alecia and mel for a moment before she looks back to liv*

Olivia Boehm: How have you been? *Hand almost reaching for her before she pulls it back*

Alecia Ryan: *she smiles up at Kaeleigh, but it's not pleasant at all, in fact it's likely a bit disturbing* Hi!

Ntwadumela: She's right. And he doesn't deny it. "Fear is only the body and mind's way to keep itself intact. No different than a rumbling belly."

Ntwadumela: If he was near Central, he'd already have his cell out. As it is... who could get here in time if he played that card? He smiles then as one idea comes to mind.

Alecia Ryan: You think you know what lurks in the darkness...don't you? *she asks turning her attention back to Mel*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: Liv: yknow....Ive....been...*shrugging, she looks from liv to alecia and blinks, keeping a smile though* hi....are you with them hun?

Olivia Boehm: *That gets her attention, and she looks the kid over while stepping to put herself between Kae and the child*

Ntwadumela: "What lurks in the darkness does not go away in the light. Not the really scary things anyway." He says to Liv without turning his head. "Call 9-1-1, let them know there's a little girl out here lost without her parents. Possibly a runaway."

Alecia Ryan: *she laughs when Olivia moves between her and Kaeleigh* You're scarred too *she seems to delight in that observation*

Ntwadumela: Mel rolls sideways then. If Olivia thinks she can protect someone, he's going to make sure there's a second target instead of bunching them together.

Olivia Boehm: Or pint sized fucking psychopath... *Half mumbled as she pulls her phone from her pocket, glancing back to check on Kae*

Ntwadumela: "Does it matter if we're scared if it doesn't paralyze us?"

Alecia Ryan: Oh...you're confused mister. My *she pauses* parents...they're pretty close by.

Ntwadumela: "I figured that. Do they want to be on police dash-cams?"

Alecia Ryan: *she laughs at Mel* You don't want them to come out and play...they're not friendly like me

Olivia Boehm: *She gets the nine and the one dialed, watching*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: um..*looking between the three others oddly, especially the girl* here...*digging for her phone quick, holding it towards liv, one hand still in her coat pockets* hit 2, my moms probably on dispatch....

Alecia Ryan: *she cackles with glee once more* Fraidy cats

Ntwadumela: Mel will sigh later as one of the girls gives up personal information. "No, I don't." Mel pushes his shirt aside and tilts his body in the light a bit. His fingers brushing a set of marks made by a bear, a lion, or some other very large animal.

Alecia Ryan: If you call someone...do I get to also?

Ntwadumela: "Yep. Terrified."

Olivia Boehm: Put the phone away, baby. *Very quietly, obviously to Kae*

Aerin Thomas: The man makes his way into Battery Park, moving calmly, and confidently. His trench coat waves a bit, the clothes underneath, the black dress shirt and matching slacks, a blur against the same colored long coat. His hair is pulled back into a tight ponytail, eyes flicking about as he moves along.

Alecia Ryan: *she frowns* I don't like any of you...you're no fun.

Ntwadumela: "Why haven't you already?"

Alecia Ryan: Uh oh..*she says quietly* Something wicked this way comes *she says in a sing song voice*

Ntwadumela: Mel thinks I really need to get some blades less than three inches. Mabye ask if the wolves will bless the things.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *licking her lips slowly when she hears liv, the phone gets shut and slipped back into the coat pocket*

Aerin Thomas: d10: Per+Alert: 9,4,7,5,3,1,

Olivia Boehm: *She's breathing shallowly, whole body tense as she focuses her attention on the kid*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: d10: per+alert: 8,9,9,8,2,10,

Aerin Thomas: He sees a group in the general vicinity as his eyes scan around. He moves along toward them, brow furrowing as he tries to discern who it is.

Alecia Ryan: Kitty lady...why are you so afraid? You know what's coming don't you?

Ntwadumela: Oh, looky! It gets better, someone gets to SEE him scared by this kid. And wherever her family might be.

Ntwadumela: Mel leans down to start unlacing his skates. Not really taking his eyes off the kid, but wanting them OFF.

Alecia Ryan: *she hops back a few steps. All of her movements speak of this being some kind of game to her. She moves as if she's playing hop scotch*

Morgane Kristanovitch: When did she get to the park? she has been watching the kids over by the playground on the east side of the park. now that total darkness has settled over the park she is heading through so that she can get back to the apartment. Either it is luck for her that she decided to wear a pair of black slacks and her black boots, with a dark green sweater, losely falling to her hips? Her hairis pulled back in a braid that falls over her shoulder slightly.

Olivia Boehm: *She shifts positions just a little when Mel moves, putting herself directly in front of and just a couple inches away from Kae* Don't move, okay baby girl? *Voice still very quiet*

Ntwadumela: "If you get to dance, does that mean I get to as well?"

Alecia Ryan: Called your friends didn't you! *she shouts in a displeased tone verging on sounding as if she's about to throw a temper tantrum*

Michelle (Rauko): ((whimpers)) *well.. eh.. taggin behind Aerin?*

Aerin Thomas: ((Am waiting on the other PC who's coming in with Aerin.))

Aerin Thomas: ((There we are! *G*))

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes look in the distance to aerin approaching, then back to the girl*

Alecia Ryan: Wicked...you tried to trick me...no fun

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Per+Alert: 7,7,4,3,3,8,

Michelle (Rauko): ((that's why I whimpered .. me asking and then delaying and then hesitating and then wanting and sowwwy!))

Ntwadumela: He unlaces both before taking them off.

Aerin Thomas: He narrows his eyes as he hears a familiar voice shouting. "Michelle. Stay behind me." And he starts moving directly for Alecia, his moves becoming more like a predator. A hunter, moving to strike. Eyes focused on the one-armed little girl. "KAE! Get away from her!"

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes flicking about the area in general again, murmuring a soft mmmhmm to liv, she takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly*

Ntwadumela: Mel smiles at the girls discomfort. That means these AREN'T with her.

Alecia Ryan: *she seems delighted as Aerin starts moving in her direction* Ah..play time..

Morgane Kristanovitch: She hears the voices before she see's the people ((YAY for AS Hearing *S*)) A frown marring her forhead as she moves in the direction of one voice she recognizes, Mel.

Aerin Thomas: ((Change "Michelle" to "Rauko." My bad.))

Michelle (Rauko): *Odd, yellowish eyes glance faintly up to Aerin, then ahead... fidgeting to edge behind him, rather doing as told without questioning, and follows behind... peering ahead, frowning*

Ntwadumela: "I really need to get some more knives."

Alecia Ryan: *she starts moving backwards towards a shadowy area*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *that shout gets her to jump and gasp, pulse racing and looking towards its source as he moves closer, hand tightening on something in her pocket...she takes a step or two back*

Ntwadumela: Tosses his skates aside. They aren't important. He takes some sort of fighting stance.

Olivia Boehm: *One hand goes back, grabbing for Kae's arm*

Alecia Ryan: ~A growl can be heard from the area that Alecia is moving towards. A deep throaty growl, rumbling, and savage sounding. As if it's the precursor to a roar~

Michelle (Rauko): ((mehp)) *flitching lightly behind Aerin*

Morgane Kristanovitch: A slight wince her ears sensitive, eyes going to Aerin and she straighten her shoulders, her scared of something, doesn't looks it. But she slips a hand to her pocket. have to be prepared for anything, as she continues her course towards Mel. She knows HIM.

Ntwadumela: d10: per+alert: 1,9,2,5,4,8,

Alecia Ryan: (everyone toss out a Per+alertness just for fun)

Olivia Boehm: d10: per, alert: 7,9,4,

Michelle (Rauko): d10: p-a: 8,8,1,9,5,3,6,

Ntwadumela: ((well, was doing that to spot Morgane with his attention on the girl. But hey, maybe there's more))

Morgane Kristanovitch: The growl get's her attention, as she glances in that direction. She slows her steps down, as she is coming to the group last of all.

Aerin Thomas: d10: Per+Alert: 10,1,8,8,8,7,

Alecia Ryan: ~a pair of yellow-green eyes glints from the shadowy darkness behind Alecia. They are large and luminous, set against something jet black, they are frightening for the weak willed to behold~

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Per+Alert(ASHearing): 8,8,3,6,3,5,

Aerin Thomas: ((Gaah. EVERY time I enter a scene, I get slammed with pings. Sorry for delays in postings, guys.))

Alecia Ryan: Come closer! He wants to play!

Michelle (Rauko): ((sorrry! *is one of the guilty parties*))

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((If it isn't hearing related, then forget anything extra she might have gotten *S*))

Alecia Ryan: (No problem)

Ntwadumela: "Anybody got a knife?"

Alecia Ryan: I have one...you want to see it? *she says to Mel while dancing back a few more steps*

Morgane Kristanovitch: "I think not. I have a better idea." she says.

Michelle (Rauko): *She IS staying were Aerin tells her.. odd eyes staring at the yellowish in the dark... rather... shakingly,.. though she...oh... she gave it to Malcolm*

Ntwadumela: "If I can stick it in your eye."

Aerin Thomas: "Olivia! Get Kaeleigh out of here! Michelle, go with them!" The rest of the people, he doesn't know much or have time for. Someone just breached the Veil, and that gives him license to as well. He moves straight for Alecia and the eyes, a snarl escaping his lips. Ready to go.

Alecia Ryan: Come at me then coward...we'll see how close you can get! *she says with a wicked smile as she takes another few steps backwards*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *the arm liv has a hold on of kaes is shivering slightly,and she halts where she is, moving no further away*

Ntwadumela: Morgane: "You heard the man, haul ass!"

Olivia Boehm: *Part of her itches to stay and help, but she knows full well that he's right. Her hand moves, fingers lacing with Kae's, backing away while keeping an eye on the girl and holding her other hand out for Michelle* Come on, kiddo.

Michelle (Rauko): *a fleeting peer to Aerin, she does dig for the knive ((Malcolm did turned back*hides*)) and.. humm.... she'll offer it quickly to Mel and skitter immidiatly off to Olivia and company a tiny frown, but won't get in the True Bron's way*

Alecia Ryan: No! Don't run! He just wants to play!

Ntwadumela: If he can get it, Mel will accept any knife offered from one of the ones that seems to be an ally.

Aerin Thomas: "PLay with

Aerin Thomas: ((DLP))

Michelle (Rauko): *well she'll give it off... and skitter away with Olivia, even peering constnatly to the others.... well... she... humm.... following along*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *her eyes widen when aerin rushes the girl and snarls, not fear entirely but more worry for him, almost not noticing as liv starts tugging on her hand, a jolt of a start but she moves as she gets tugged more*....liv...., aerin...

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((Thank you KF *S*)) She doesn't in the slightest seem to be afraid. Now knowing who or what type of people are around she squats down to slip a blade in a sheath from her boot, and hands it to Mel, he asked she is helping him out, some.

Alecia Ryan: Well...maybe you should run...he likes to play with corpses as well!

Olivia Boehm: He'll be okay. He's going to call you the second he's safe. *Far louder than necessary, so that Aerin catches it*

Aerin Thomas: "Play with me," he says with a growl, his form rising and filling out...voice deepening and becoming more bestial. Dedicated clothes rise with him, then melt away as a brown fur comes out, dappled with gray around the head. He's shifted to Crinos. ((Rage spent; witnesses are at +4 on the Delerium pool for him, for the record. Tribal Flaw))

Ntwadumela: He'll take the better of the two blades. Silver the higher priority. He's not sure that's as effective to the wolves, but given popular culture... it's a safe bet.

Ntwadumela: He's not sticking around. He's soft and squishy too. But he does stay between them and the growing fight. If they get chased, he'll be the first one down.

Michelle (Rauko): ((me thinks Michelle is not staying to see if he took the blade or not, as Olivia tugs and Aerin commands)) *yellowish red eyes keeping peering behind, intently... going along, but constnatly nearly obsesively looking behind*

Morgane Kristanovitch: The dagger he get's from Morgane is indeed silver, she says to him. "If I can, I want it back."

Alecia Ryan: ~those with sensitive noses begin to pick up a foul reak eminating from behind Alecia. Those who have encountered it before know well what it is. The stench of the Wyrm!~

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((Nope just sensitive ears here *S*))

Ntwadumela: Not any more sensitive than a normal human, but more aware of the sense of smell. But then again, his enemies have never been quite this nasty.

Alecia Ryan: *her eyes widen with glee and she jumps up and down excitedly when Aerin shifts forms* Grshthak! I promised you a play mate! There he is!

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: sweet goddess....*shivering hard, shes getting tugged, but damnit hes back there....with those things....sense and his order take the better of her though and she keeps moving where shes getting tugged*

Olivia Boehm: *She zips in front of Kae, walking backwards* Watch me okay baby girl?

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): The tall, muscular monstrosity continues it's movements toward Alecia and her protector, eyes locked on them, waiting for aggressive movement, while he calls on the aid of the filling moon to protect him.

Alecia Ryan: (Let's bust out some initiative right after Aerin activates his gift)

Morgane Kristanovitch: She wrinkles her nose delicatly at the smell, still she looks every bit as elegant and demure as ever, as she stands back up, she slides the dagger tucking it next to her arm so it is as unseen as it can be. She is not moving back. Maybe she is stupid but her eyes are3 on the one armed girl.

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Lunas Armor (WP): 2,2,9,2,7,2,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): ((FINALLY! The damn Gift WORKED for him!))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Alecia has a 14, Grshthak has a 25 (Spirit of the Fray. He obviously goes first. In declare order it's Morgane, Mel, Alecia, Aerin, and then Grshthak)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~he bursts forth from the darkness leaping directly over Alecia~

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~A creature of savage fury. 9 and a half feet tall and bulging with muscle. Scars criss-cross over its torso but one can't help but be drawn to its eyes. Two glowing yellow-green orbs blazing with unrestrained Rage. The beast within made manifest in terrible form, a maw full of needle like teeth, and wickedly curved claws at the end of its finger tips. The claws as long as knives and dripping some sort of ichor~

Michelle (Rauko): *will murmur to Olivia as they start off* centralpark *so low... is -the- kinda relatively safest place, odd eyes keep going back while she can*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: HT~ Does this seem peaceful to you? Do you recognize that you're standing in your GRAVE!!

Olivia Boehm: *Nodding, still walking backwards with her eyes on Kae's*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (green tag!)

Olivia Boehm: ((brb. changing comps))

Morgane Kristanovitch: Anything under 40 pounds, or that looks like it weighs that much is going direwctly at Alecia. No if and's or but's on the matter. "This is what I was trained for." she says.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes on liv, damn hard for her to do, but eyes stay on liv, shivering hard now, still moving*

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Telekinesis: 2,3,6,10,5,8,

Ntwadumela: He takes up a defensive position behind those more squishy than him, expecting someone to follow them too.

Alecia Ryan: ~Alecia is retreating into the darkness. She'll attempt to dodge any objects that fly in her direction~

Alecia Ryan: d10: dex+dodge (wp): 3,2,6,3,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): He snarls out his response. ~HT~ "We'll see who's grave it is, Grshthak." And he waits for an attack to fly, ready to dodge the first blow. ((1 Rage spent for second action. 2 Remain.))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *the beast leaps at Aerin the most obvious target, some sort of disgusting green/grey slime coating it's claws* (burning 1 rage as well. Plenty of rage remaining)

Olivia Boehm: ((back. sorry))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: claw attack: 2,10,9,10,9,1,5,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Dex+Dodge: 10,6,6,1,1,9,

Michelle (Rauko): ((well jsut to keep actions of were we are at)) *she'll swallow breath in and force herself to take Kae's hand, and liv's... yes? activelly tugging them to a cab.. well... they shoulda get out of here.. and phone backup*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (alright let's get these resolved. Grshthak's damage first)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Damage: 7,6,7,8,4,7,9,9,3,8,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Soak: 7,7,10,8,4,5,5,9,

Olivia Boehm: ((cp?))

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): ((JESUS H CHRIST, man! Stop trying to kill my PC! *G*))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (3 aggrevated damage. Morgane trying to bash sweet innocent Alecia with trash can now please)

Ntwadumela: ((Quick, someone blow the dicebot.))

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((How much exra for damage?))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (3 dice of damage on the trash can. She dodged 2 successes to hit)

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *her eyes having been on livs, let alone hearing the growling and such going on where they came from, she jumps, yelping when michelle takes her hand, swallowing hard and moving a bit faster now, starting to turn, making the effort to turn away now*

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Damage: 7,4,8,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Soak: 2,7,

Michelle (Rauko): ((Dunno oliv... dunno if we can get when...)) *Michelle WILL try and phone, get Aering backup the sooner posible*

Olivia Boehm: Kae? Come on baby okay? Please?

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Recap: The savage Black Spiral Dancer Grshthak leaps at Aerin and rakes his poisoned claws across the chest of the Gaian drawning a line of crimson as his flesh is flayed open (3 agg). Morgane summons her power and throws a trash can at the retreating, sweet, innocent, harmless Alecia.(1 bashing) Rage actions!)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (I accidentally ghosted out Alecia's tag, very sorry)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~for those retreating from the battle the sounds of snarling and flesh ripping can be heard off in the direction of where they just came from~

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): A snarl of pain comes from deep inside the Gaian's throat, and he lashes out with a claw strike, aimed at the creature's groin area. Aerin fights DIRTY. ((1 WP for auto-success to hit; taking +2 diff to call the shot.))

Michelle (Rauko): *frowning, she tries to see the here*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Dex+Brawl: 9,9,8,6,7,7,

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *her grip tightens HARD on those holding onto her and that shes holding onto at those sounds of growling and pain behind them, but she does move, wherever shes led, forcing herself not to look back*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *the creature leaps back as the strike arcs towards him*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Dodgin (wp): 1,7,5,6,6,2,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (he dodges 3 of the 4 successes. Add +2 dice to the damage pool for hitting him in the family jewels)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Soak: 3,6,2,6,3,2,7,4,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Recap~ The blow to the groin connects but does not have it does not have the desired effect as it does little damage. (1 agg)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (New round! Same order! Morgane, Mel, Alecia, Aerin then Grshthak)

Morgane Kristanovitch: At the sound of pain from the fighting garou she makes an immediate decision sending the dagger in her palm into Grshthak. While calling out to Mel. "Get the girl." It sounds like an order, and reaching for her last Silver dagger at her back.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: HT~ Run Gaian...you cannot stand against me. Run or I'll slay you and all who stand beside you. *the creature turns a baleful gaze upon Morgane and Mel*

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Telekinesis(WP): 3,9,5,9,5,2,

Olivia Boehm: He's okay....

Ntwadumela: Regardless of how he takes orders, he does know how to fight beside allies. He lets Michelle's normal seeming knife fly, wishing he had one balanced for throwing. ((Athletics or Melee to throw weapons?))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Athletics)

Ntwadumela: ((At the girl))

Ntwadumela: d10: Throw: 8,4,9,7,10,9,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Alecia: She continues to retreat into the depths of the park of course making her escape in the chaos as always~

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): He steps back from the Spiral, body tensed and waiting. He's not running yet, but he's in a defensive stance, ready to dodge. ((1 Rage; Holding to dodge if necessary))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *The beast roars when Aerin does not run. He twists to avoid Morgane's knife and moves towards Mel his claws flashing out with deadly intent(1 rage spent as well. Splitting pool of first action for a dodge and the claw attack)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Dodge(wp): 10,3,3,1,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Claw: 2,9,8,5,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (just a sec, rule discussion hehe)

Michelle (Rauko): ((mheep... hum... hops))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (alright so 1 success to dodge Morgane's knife...and Pain for Mel)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Aerin is changing an action so we shall wait a moment)

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): ((Okay, with the rules clarification out of the way, Aerin's action is changing. *S*)) He snarls as Grshthak goes to slice Mel, and tries to slash at the Spiral. ((+1 diff for action change, -1 die for wound penalty))

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Dex+Brawl: 3,2,6,3,5,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): *Thuds*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (the whiff....alright damage resolution)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: Damage: Mel: 3,7,3,6,3,2,9,6,7,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Mel takes 5 Unsoakable. His action is cancelled by the stun)

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Damage: 4,4,3,

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((*Groans*))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Recap: Grshthak moves past Aerin with incredible speed and savages Mel with a brutal claw attack. Blasting the fragile man to the ground. Aerin tries to attack Grshthak as he passes by but his aim as off and he misses. Morgane's dagger strikes but her aim is off as well and just bounces harmlessly off the massive beast~

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (rage actions)

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): The man snarls as he sees Grshthak slash into Ntwadamela, and he trusts in the Goddess's will to see them through this. It's still two-on-one odds, and he slashes at the man, snarling viciously. ((WP to attack))

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Dex+Brawl: 6,8,4,4,7,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *Grshthak rears back to attack Aerin as well his toxic waste covered claws digging into the Child of Gaia once again*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: d10: soak: 8,7,3,10,3,5,9,10,

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Recap: Both claw attacks are inneffective bouncing harmlessly off Aerin's gift from Luna and off the disgusting hide that covers Grshthak, his gift from the Wyrm~ (new round!)

Morgane Kristanovitch: She is goinf to dodge as she attempt to also bring that silver dagger back around to strike Grshthak.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: HT~ Run! Run! Run! You cannot win...you think that I will not mangle the woman next. Run coward...it's all you have left.

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((I will roll dodge if needed))

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): ~HT~ "Back off, Grshthak." He growls it out, lip curled into a sneer and ready to attack again if necessary. ~HT~ "Your ward is running away. Never know where the rest of my pack is."

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Telekinesis: 3,2,4,

Michelle (Rauko): *Trully... Michelle frowns, one foot on the cab one out.. her eyes seeming off... and closing the door so Oliv and Reig can go, she starts hurrying back.. yes! carefull to avoid kid or others... just.. edging... trying not to call much atention to bring Mel off battle range and try stop bleeding* ( hum.. and hide luckily))

Ntwadumela: Mel will just make any attempt he can to get out of the way as most of his body goes numb.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *he growls. Does the Gaian speak the truth? Did he bring his pack? The beast sents the air* HT~ We'll meet again weakling...you'll not escape my wrath then. The rest of the Poisoned Heart will see to that!

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Recap: Luckily for Morgane she's not as bold as she thought. When she summons her skills to toss the dagger once more she cannot muster the strength to move it. Perhaps her ability has failed her...but perhaps this has also saved her life~

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): ~HT~ "The Heart of Thorns will be there to stop you," he promises in a low voice, baleful green eyes locked on the beast.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: *the massive beast steps backwards covering a good amount of ground even in reverse. * HT~ We're coming for Tori...you can't protect her! *the creature shouts as it continues to slink back into the darkness*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): The sinewy, muscled creature of Rage roars at that, a threat and a promise. ~HT~ "Come near her and you'll know what pain IS!!"

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): d10: Rage: 8,5,3,10,

Ntwadumela: Is.. singing. Falling in and out of English and his native Setswana. The words 'moon', 'sun', and 'lovers' probably being all that's audible as he makes a little extra effort to sing them.

Michelle (Rauko): ((can't just leave *whimpers*)) *the girl will really just focuse on tuggint carefully Mel behind bench, tree, anything near and hold his and her jacket to stop blood*

Morgane Kristanovitch: As the thing dissapears, she sheaths the one dagger in her hand. And dropping down to Mel said. Muttering something in russian.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~a dark booming laugh echoes across the park as the Spiral disappears back into the darkness from whence it came. The sound of Mel's strange singing now fills the air around the group but other wise it is quiet. Almost too quiet~

Ntwadumela: His feet and hands make little movements to help Michelle. He knows the drill, been there before.

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): Hatred and pure, unadulterated anger rolls off the creature in waves, like heat. He stares after the monstoristy slipping into the night, choking on his Rage, forcing it back down, before he reverts to his breed form of Homid...and hisses in pain, the claw wound felt deep now.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Mel's wound is extra disgusting and bleeding profusely. As is Aerin's both are covered in the icky slime that was dripping from Grshthak's claws. The wounds will have to be cleaned before they can be fully healed, even by Mother's touch)

Morgane Kristanovitch: She will use her powers to bring the dagger to her, hoping it comes to her as she makes her way to Mel, Picking up the other where it dropped when Mel went down.

Olivia Boehm: *Liv keeps Kae out of sight of the fight, keeping up a constant stream of chatter to try to distract her*

Morgane Kristanovitch: d10: Telekinesis: 7,7,5,2,3,9,

Michelle (Rauko): *swallows... well.. half aware the quiet is to deep, yellowish red eyes peering once to morgane, and muttered*Centralpark *still putting jacket agaist blood, at least hold more blood from pouring, before peering somewaht Aerin's way*

Morgane Kristanovitch: She sheaths a dagger in her boot and helps Michelle with Mel. "We need to get him someplace safe." and yes a dagger just flew through the air to her hand.

Ntwadumela: He looks up at Michelle. "Sorry, dropped your knife."

Michelle (Rauko): *and so yet again, muttered*Centralpark *to Morgane... now letting her eyes back down*

Michelle (Rauko): *shaking her head to Mel... fidgety, of being so close people she is nt familiar with, yet still pressing*

Morgane Kristanovitch: A nod fo her head to michelle. "Yes." She prays to Gaia that, Mel will be okay till then.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *and the more chatter liv keeps up to distract her, the more kaes nature screams at her to go and help anybody who might be hurt* liv I cant just stand here, I NEED to help, I need to do something

Michelle (Rauko): *another peer towards Aerin, and back down*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): He looks down to Mel through narrowed eyes, and mutters a curse under his breath. "We don't have time for Central Park. Kaeleigh!" His voice rises as he calls out for her. "Kaeleigh, we need your help!"

Olivia Boehm: You need to stay safe.

Michelle (Rauko): *and so... a faint nod to Aerin, staring down, keeps pressing, just goes quiet*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *hearing her name, her eyes dart up and over that way* AERIN?!?!

Morgane Kristanovitch: She will cut off the bottom part of her sweater and use this as well as something to stem the flow of blood for now, tucking the dagger into the back of her pants in it's sheath.

Olivia Boehm: Come on. *Grabbing her hand and starting to run*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "I'm here! Come here, quick!"

Ntwadumela: Aerin: "Thought I had her. Got what I deserved for being sloppy."

Michelle (Rauko): *Wincing faintly, shrinking her shoulders, even as she foreces herself to keep the presure, and those odd eyes of her peer around*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (oooh Morgane is stripping! Good thing it's warm)

Morgane Kristanovitch: She looks to Mel, then Aerin and back. "I believe we have some help, you will be okay." she sounds so assuring, even if deep inside she doesn't feel that way she even smile at Mel.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *hearing him call again let alone say quick she RUSHES back over fast as she can*

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((Hey it is only the bottom 6 inches or so, she looks like she has a cropped sweater now, she is not stripping *L*))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (yeah right! She's practically ready to get up on stage at Wyld Nights!)

Michelle (Rauko): *And frowns, staring off, tilting her head faintly, like if listening, hands still over the jakcet held agaist Mel's wounds, seeming to be staring off*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~As Michelle's mind wanders her hand slips a bit and her finger pokes directly into Mel's gaping wound. And her hand is covered with the toxic sludge as well~

Ntwadumela: Winces slightly.

Michelle (Rauko): ((mheep.. eww))

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: d10: wits/med: 6,3,6,3,8,9,3,

Ntwadumela: "Hey, you found my ticklish spot."

Morgane Kristanovitch: She frowns watching what happoens to Michelles hand. Moving the jacket or the piece of sweater to cover the wound. It would be bad to get that stuff on you and she is not going to let that happen, that is for sure.

Michelle (Rauko): *fltiches lightly, yellowish red eyes staring at her hand without looking then to Mel for a slight second*

Olivia Boehm: *Following, hovering behind Kae*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "Rauko!" He reaches out and grabs her, pulling her away. He frowns as he sees her hand with the sludge on it, wincing once more.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *as she slides to her knees where they are with mel she grabs a pair of latex gloves from inside her coat pocket she keeps in there out of habit along with a few other essential medical things, slipping them on* I need water, someone, to flush clean the wound, cmon, hurry....and if anyone by any miracle has needle and thread then get it out now.....*spoken with air of authority*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~the goo and the stench of it distracts Michelle's mind and she loses whatever it was she was concentrating on~

Ntwadumela: Mel just concentrates on breathing. That hurts. The rest he hardly notices.

Michelle (Rauko): ((mhep!)) *just to flitch and shrink faintly as she is grabbed and pulled up and off, by insitict, immidiatly staring down, murmuring immidialy* I'msorryRhya *is reflective, she frowns, trying to hold back onto what was happening, frowning more*

Michelle (Rauko): *and back onto staring at her hand... like if she was trying to recall how did that happened, frowning more*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "It's allright," he says quickly to Michelle, before looking to Kaeleigh, arm over his abdomen where the wound is. "Just the cleansing of the wound, Kaeleigh. I'll take care of the wound itself after."

Ntwadumela: "You're more important. You first."

Michelle (Rauko): *a faint nod, but she does NOT look up to him, doesn't even makes the atempt to lift her gaze from the ground and her hand, staying very still were he pulled her at*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (posting again to keep with her sense of urgency) damnit does anybody have a bottle of water or something to get water from one of the fountains in? we need to clean this wound NOW!*starting to shrug off her coat, finishing with the gloves getting tugged on her hands, she rips at whatever clothing is surrounding the wound to clear the area to work with*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "You." He looks to Mel. The man's obviously some kind of kin, to just stand there around two Crinos. "Shut up with the 'you're more important' shit. You're just as important, and hurt worse. Sit there and be tended to."

Morgane Kristanovitch: She backs off, seeing that Kae has more knowledge than she does. a shake of her head. "I do not have such items." She doesn't even know where one would get anything with water in it around here. Having nothing to put water in if she went to a fountain. "I will see about getting some water though." she get's up from her kneeled spot by Mel and takes off runing to look for a container to use for water.

Olivia Boehm: d10: stamina: 4,8,

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): He starts to move slowly, with deliberate purpose and staggering a bit, toward the nearest fountain. He'll use his coat if need be, ineffective as it may be. It's something.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *reaching for another glove, she looks up to those there and hands it to them* someone, take this and put water in it, fill it as much as you can without it bursting

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Perhaps there's something in the trash that would hold water. It's not exactly clean..but it's better than nothing...oh wait..Morgane threw the garbage can at sweet little Alecia~

Ntwadumela: He has an amused look on his face at Aerin's statement, but doesn't have the strength to laugh. "Some cloth holds alot of water."

Michelle (Rauko): *stays very still in place, seeming like if she dind't dare move from where Aerin left her, does starts daring peers up though, as if to check... back in her mind wanting to try to lock onto the voices she had a moment ago*

Ntwadumela: Of course, 'alot' is relative to some people.

Olivia Boehm: *She takes the glove and zips past Aerin to the fountain*

Morgane Kristanovitch: If she can she will grab the Glove that was extended, and as she goes to the fountain she will also look for another container as well.

Michelle (Rauko): *and finally moves.... going through her bag.. what is use to have a child near.. you alwasy carry wet towels.. and at least those have a container*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: michelle, come here,now, and take my jacket and put it under his feet so theyre elevated slightly...

Morgane Kristanovitch: Or whever grabs the glove to fill.

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "The garbage can," he says, stopping to lean against a light post, as the others are moving far faster then him. He pulls out a cigarette. Yes, the man covered in toxic waste is pulling a smoke. What's one more carcinogen?

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (lol gloves for everyone!*G*)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~the nearest water fountain is about 15 yards away~

Michelle (Rauko): *without a word, eyes down, does as Kael says, placing the wet towels container near her and the left wet towels near in case they actually are of use* ((sure... not likely but))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Moist towelettes Michelle has provided hahaha. Might be good for cleaning a scratch...but not a gaping wound)

Olivia Boehm: *Twisting the top, and heading back to to Kae*

Michelle (Rauko): ((but the container! they come in a little plastic box.. that can be used to carry the water =P *poke* that is what she is offering the container, not the acutally wet towels =P))

Morgane Kristanovitch: She spots a plastic water container that was flung out of the trash can that she threw at the girl and scoops it up and runs to the water fountain behind olivia, if they do this in shift thewn the two of them might be ablke to get enough water for the cleaning of the wounds for both of the people.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Morgane as she moves in the direction of the fountain comes across two water bottles that must've fallen out of the trash can when she flung it at poor sweet Alecia. Perhaps they are from runners who don't recycle. They even have caps so perhaps the insides aren't that dirty~

Ntwadumela: ((thank you nice ST person!))

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((*S*)) She takes the tops off and when Olivia move to go back she starts to fill one at a time, to get plenty of water.

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): He lights up the cigarette and looks to Mel, giving him a grim smile. "And, frighteningly, we call that a win for the good guys." Gallows humor, to be shared between the two wounded men.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *even the wetnaps can help some, esp if theyre alcohol based, cleaning the gloves some, then using them to clean the edges of the wound, not the actual wound itself* keep still, tell me if this tickles....* murmured to mel, and as she works, shouting out* aerin, get your ass back here.....

Olivia Boehm: Here. *Handing the glove water balloon to Kae*

Aerin Thomas (Crinos): "I'm comin, I'm comin," he grumbles a little, another growl of pain coming out as he makes his way slowly back to Kaeleigh, Michelle, and Mel.

Ntwadumela: "Tough bastard. Glad he was alone. Glad you came along."

Morgane Kristanovitch: When both water bottles are filled, as much as can be without spilling any out, she caps them both and runs back over to the group with them both in hand.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *when the glove water balloon gets back to her, she keeps the twist at the top, then nips her teeth hard at a very tiny spot on one of the fingertips, enough so squeezing the water filled glove gives slightly pressured srream to flush clean the wound*

Michelle (Rauko): *she is stil staring down, just silently helping Kael... trying to keep the hand that got gooed off*

Ntwadumela: "I'm not ticklish on the outside. Inside do what you have to." And he's probably not ticklish because this is pretty obviously not the first time he's been laid out like this. His entire upper body as far as they can see to the neck has scars on it, leaving little of the original skin.

Olivia Boehm: *Hovering again*

Morgane Kristanovitch: When she get's back she drops to her knees holding the water bottles to hand off to Kae when she needs them. seh does pick up Mels hand and she holds it in her a smile down to him to show that everything is going to be alright.

Aerin Thomas: He takes one of the bottles of water, and moves to Michelle. "Hold out your hand," he says, uncapping the bottle.

Michelle (Rauko): *blinks, peering lightly to him, murmuring* youshouldcleanyourselffirstRhya *yes, in one stream not letting her eyes behind Aerin0s chest*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: liv, rip the back of my shirt to staunch the wound once I clean it, aerin, lay out so you can be taken care of...michelle, help aerin clear any clothes in the way of the wound so it can be cleaned too

Ntwadumela: He does wince a bit as the water cleans him out. He affords the medical staff a smile. "Just a flesh wound."

Aerin Thomas: "Hand. Now."

Michelle (Rauko): *does as told by Aerin... and then as told by Kae... not uttering another word*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (ooh more stripping this is getting interesting)

Olivia Boehm: *Not exactally how she'd pictured ripping Kae's clothes off... She tears from the collar, getting a semi-neat strip*

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (And the lesson learned here is: When a scary little kid offers you candy...just take it)

Aerin Thomas: He tears a wide strip off of his shirt and uses it as a washcloth, applying the water to Michelle's hand and getting the crap of Michelle's skin. Only when her hand is fully free of the waste does he follow Kaeleigh's order, pulling his trench and shirt off and laying down next to Mel. Vicious claw wounds across his chest, far deeper then the ones Kaeleigh looked at before. When Mel's cleaned up, he reaches over to lay a hand over the wound.

Olivia Boehm: *She moves to bandage Mel's wound, freeing Kae up to tend to Aerin*

Morgane Kristanovitch: She of course hands off the water bottle to whoever wants them. She continues to hold Mels hand, squeezing it lightly as she watches what Kae does.

Michelle (Rauko): *she'll let him do, silently, keeping her eyes lowered.. then move to help him out, still quietly*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (feh, shes wearing a bra*chuckles*) cute...flesh wound...*lips twitching, affording herself that, once shes done cleaning the wound out, and liv has enough cloth for the wound, she looks to liv and morgane* once youve got the wound covered, use something to wrap around it to keep the pressure....*using some water to clean her gloves off of any goo before turning to aerin*

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (*chuckles* damn, orders followed even before theyre given*G*)

Ntwadumela: ((Either that, or just gut her without warning. I mean, that would have improved the odds too.))

Aerin Thomas: He looks up at the now-less clothes Kaeleigh and grins faintly. "That's a good look for you." He winks at her and then focuses his healing through his hand, to fix Mel up.

Aerin Thomas: d10: Mothers Touch (WP): 3,8,7,1,10,

Aerin Thomas: ((And the extra GN is being spent to get rid of the scarring...of THIS wound, of course. Can't do much about the rest. *S*))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Mel is now only Hurt)

Michelle (Rauko): ((guys.. getting sleepy... ))

Ntwadumela: Mel takes a breath. "Thanks. Much better."

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *thpthting aerin, the tatt over her lower abdomen(sleek solid muscles) peeking out from her pants waistline* yeah, half naked, bloody handed gloves....ooo hot....now shush you....*allowing another faint twitch of lips as she takes some ripped cloth to help staunch his wound once michelle cleans it with water*

Morgane Kristanovitch: Well Morgane can afford another 3 or 4 inches off her sweater and the arms of them as well. So she will make do with cutting so that the arms and what come off from around it can be used as bandages where ever needed with Aerin or Mel, or bboth.

Michelle (Rauko): ((*snugz about* I need to bail.. Michelle will remind at AErin's side upeer quietly, acting nearly three times her normal shy and just doing as told *snugz* seeya and thanks for playings *hugs the ST and the plauers*))

Ntwadumela: Mel slowly sits up, testing the 'ouch' and looking at Morgane. "You don't tell him I almost left my guts here, I won't tell him you wouldn't run."

Aerin Thomas: ((Thanks, Nire! *hugs*))

Ntwadumela: ((*hugs* Sleep well))

Morgane Kristanovitch: Here." she says to Kae, holding out some of her nice sweater to use as bandages. She will help olivia to finish bandaging Mel up.

Ntwadumela: Takes off his shirt before someone pushes him back down.

Ntwadumela: (or what's left of it)

Aerin Thomas: "Hold up," he says to those bandaging. "Got one more shot left in me." He gives a last surge of the Goddess's healing touch, through his own hand.

Morgane Kristanovitch: She looks innocently up to mel a blink. "Tell who what?" a smile as she tilts her head, as she finishes tieing off the makeshift bandage.

Aerin Thomas: d10: MT: 10,6,9,7,6,7,

Aerin Thomas: ((Now why can't I roll that in combat or the FIRST MT attempt??????))

Michelle (Rauko): ((*hugs you all..*S* thanks Rav for tugging me along *S*hu puff*))

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((Delete action of badaging as Aerin heald him up. The rest stays as is))

Olivia Boehm: ((night!))

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (ni ni*G*)

Ntwadumela: ((Don't know. Same reason I can roll a fantastic roll with the knife only to be knocked almost dead before the action actually happens?))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (hahaha!)

Ntwadumela: "Good girl."

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (It's because I put a hex upon you all!)

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: ~Mel is completely healed, and despite the foolish nature of his actions, he'll live to tell the tale of recieving a near fatal wound from a Black Spiral Dancer. Although without his scar it remains to be seen whether or not anyone will actually believe him~

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *once everyone is cleaned, healed, bandaged, etc, she takes a deep breath, lets it out slowly, then gets up to toddle towards a garbage can of some sort with the eww goo stuff, gloves still on, tosses the stuff out, then carefully peels off the gloves to toss them out too*

Morgane Kristanovitch: Raises an eyebrow to mel's comment about a good girl, rolls her eyes then helps Kae withthe bandaging of Aerin if she needs it.

Ntwadumela: Mel slowly stands to his feet, dazed but feling much better. "Oh, ouch. What the hell was that thing?"

Aerin Thomas: To his credit, he only barely winces when he's cleaned out. Once he's bandaged up, he stands, slowly. He's been smoking the whole time, and he takes another drag. "That, apparently, was Grshthak. Who would be Alecia's bodyguard."

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: d10: stam: 8,2,2,

Ntwadumela: "That would explain why he hit me when I lined up on her. Figured he'd stick with you as the main threat rather than expose himself in a one on one."

Morgane Kristanovitch: A sigh as she now notes the condition of her sweater, a sigh. The dagger can now be seen at the back of the waistband of her pants, just the rubberized handle, as the rest is in a sheath. She tugs down a bit on her sweater, as she crosses her eyes. Reminded of her work shirt in the sweater. She looks to Aerin. "Do we need to report a new incident to those in charge? or is this part of an old thing?" she inquires.

Ntwadumela: Now that he's standing, they can also see the marks on his back. And they go down to his elbows as well, and disappear into his pants. He may not have a mark from this one, but it may have been overlooked regardless.

Olivia Boehm: Jesus, Mel....

Ntwadumela: Olivia: "Huh?"

Aerin Thomas: "It's a continuation of a current thing," he says to Morgane. "And it should be reported. I'll do so. I'm driving you all home, too. No one's walking home or taking the subway."

Morgane Kristanovitch: ((Crosses her arms. *Shakes head* wow talk about a night for leaving things out and changing bodyparts))

Olivia Boehm: *Tearing her eyes from the scars, looking vaguely embarrased* Nothing. How are you feeling?

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *wandering her way back, she uses her forearm to wipe at her brow, light goosebumps over pale freckled skin since shes only in a bra and green scrub pants now, the lanyard and picture ids jingling as she walks back, the half nekkidness in public not seeming to bother her really except for the chill*

Ntwadumela: "There's someone near Central who'll probably let me bunk for the night, and capable of at least putting up a fight. Just let me grab my case from my jeep."

Morgane Kristanovitch: "As you wish." she says about the reporting of the incident."All I have to do is walk across the street from the park." she says as she stands up still with her arms crossed. "Thank you though.

Ntwadumela: "Pretty good. Thanks to..." Mel offers his hand to Aerin. "Hi, I'm Ntwadumela."

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: actually...my place isnt far from here at all....Id feel better if anyone who needs to comes there to calm down from the adrenaline....Ive got coffee...and...other 'medicinal' liquids...*aheming softly with a slight grin*

Aerin Thomas: "Aerin Thomas." He takes the hand and shakes it, then looks at Morgane. "Then we'll walk you there." No chance for argument implied by his tone.

Ntwadumela: "I'd still like to get my hunting knife from my jeep. It's not silver, but it's balanced for throwing. And bigger."

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (too bad it's warm out, this would've been hilarious if it was 10 degrees and people were still tearing their clothes off)

Aerin Thomas: "Go ahead," he says to Mel.

Morgane Kristanovitch: A purse of her lips but she nods her head in accent. "Allright. I am Morgane," she holds out her hand. "Morgane Kristanovitch Bourikas" Yes she uses Lucien;s last name as she is his mate after all, and close to being married.

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *reaching down, she nabs up her coat and slides it on*

Aerin Thomas: "Lucian's," he says, looking to Morgane with an appraising nod. "He'd be proud of your actions tonight. You did well."

Ntwadumela: Mel drops his tattered shirt into the trash can, and picks up his skates and jogs back to his jeep (which isn't far, thankfully) to get a large black case with some kind of paperwork in a clear sleave on the side. Leaving the skates and locking up, heads back to the others.

Aerin Thomas: He leans over to pick up his trench coat and slide it on.

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (Anyone who came in direct contact with the sludge will need to undergo a Rite of Cleansing. Lest they show up as tainted further down the road. For Kaeleigh a good hot shower will do it but Aerin and Mel will definately need the rite to escape picking up taint)

Morgane Kristanovitch: A nod of her head at her moate's name. "Yes." a proud tyilt of her head. "I only did what I thought at the time would be helpful." weather or not that holds true after the face, she doesn't say. She does smile slightly to the still slightly unknown Aerin. "And i appreciate the escort home."

Ntwadumela: "I don't suppose you know anyone looking to buy a small two-bedroom just outside town, do you?"

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *chewing on her lip gently, she runs fingers through her hair a bit and reties it back a little better, eyes flicking towards aerin quietly*

Ntwadumela: Mel would normally throw an arm around someone, but right now he's keeping his hands free. Though he does set the combination lock on the case to allow him to open it quickly.

Morgane Kristanovitch: She looks to Olivia and kae, and introduces herself to both of them as Morgane. Being nice and pleasant despite the harrowing ordeal that happened earlier. She will when everyone is ready start to head toward the apartment building across the street, to go home.

Ntwadumela: And he'll stand on the far side of the group from Aerin. He may have nearly just been killed, but he still figures he's tougher than most (if not all) of the ladies.

Aerin Thomas: "Possibly," he says to Mel. "First things first. We get Morgane home, then we head to the Black Stag. You, me, and Rauko. Then, home for everyone." He looks over to Kaeleigh, and smiles to her, with incredible warmth and gratitude.

Aerin Thomas: ((And guys...I'm fading here. Work in 7.5 hours. Assume Aerin stays with everyone, gets Rauko & Mel to the Black Stag where Ryanna the Fianna Elder can cleanse them (per Uktena, she will) and then makes sure everyone gets home.))

Ntwadumela: "Black Stag someplace I can go if the shit is hitting the fan?"

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (G'night! Thanks for playin Rav!)

Ntwadumela: ((Nighty night, sleepy tight. And thankyouthankyou. And thankee more ST who let Mel get into trouble.))

Grshthak ~The Destroyer~: (He should've eaten the candy..then he woulda been in real trouble hehehe)

Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she intriduces herself to morgane quietly as kaeleigh, keeping the coat wrapped around herself, returning the warm smile to aerin with her own*

Ntwadumela: ((Ohh... Formori Mel.... ))
