Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she swallows and
shivers even more, keeping that set jaw, trying not to wince at the nails
digging in her throat....but not answering*
Olivia Boehm: *She makes a growlin sound,
slowly sitting up*
Cassius Ridley: *he
shoves the hat into his pocket and reaches over towards Livvy with his free hand
to touch the rather deep cut she has on her cheek from where he hit her. He dabs
his fingers in her blood and then smears the blood on Kaeleigh's lips* Talk...or
drink..I assure you there's a lot more where this little taste came from.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she tries to move her
lips at first, then stops, swallowing hard again* Im not afraid of blood....and
yes.....I was there....
Cassius Ridley: *he
laughs at her* Not afraid...how quaint. *he reaches back over to Livvy and dips
his fingers into her cut again this time moving to paint a bit of blood under
Kaeleigh's eyes* What was the name of the man who came to your rescue?
Olivia Boehm: Hey... *Struggling up*
Cassius Ridley: Pitiful
creature. *he sneers at Livvy* Are you pleased with yourself? Pleased that you
would not give an angel what she desired?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *even though he has a hold
on her throat she tries to move from him 'painting' on her, growling out through
clenched teeth with that set jaw* aerin.....
Olivia Boehm: *Head shaking, getting to
her feet* Leave her alone!
Cassius Ridley: His full
name...I know you know it. *he moves to get more of Livvy's blood and he
continues to paint strange glyphs on Kaeleigh's cheeks* Mmm..I almost want to
take you home..so much blood just being wasted keeping you both alive.
Olivia Boehm: *Her hand comes up to swat
his hand away*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: stop it....leave her
alone....*starting to squirm now in his hold as he keeps taking livs blood to
paint on her*
Cassius Ridley: *he
laughs and knocks Livvy down again with a push of his hand on her chest. He
sends her spilling back into some trash cans with a loud crash*
Olivia Boehm: *Head contacting hard,
yelping*
Cassius Ridley: Leave her
alone..but what fun is that? *he leans in close to Kaeleigh and licks some of
the blood that was running down her cheek. It simply won't do to have his
message unreadable*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *swallowing hard again,
she reaches up to try and pry his hand away* let me go...
Olivia Boehm: *Struggling up again* Leave
her alone!
Cassius Ridley: Leave her
alone...let me go..*he laughs at her* No..that's no fun at all. *he squeezes her
throat a bit more roughly* Can you feel your life force slipping away?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *hands try to pry at the
one around her throat again and she coughs at the rougher hold*
Cassius Ridley: *he
glances towards Livvy, knowing that it's only her strength of will that even
allows her to stand* Sit back in the trash where you belong girl. Do not make me
exhert effort in harming you once more.
Olivia Boehm: *Weaving just a tiny bit as
she takes a step toward them*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *scratchy for the rough
hold, she coughs out with hoarse voice* li....livvy....no....dont...
Cassius Ridley: *he
shakes his head at Livvy as he loosens his grip on Kaeleigh but just slightly*
Now...tell me the Hero's full name and I'll be on my way. Or...we can continue
this for a few more hours. I have an endless font of energy...we'll play a
game...see if your blood runs out before my taste for it is satiated.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *one hand slides down to
her coat pocket, trying to reach to the cellphone inside*
Cassius Ridley: (*knocks
on the window* Anyone home?)
Olivia Boehm: Let. Her go.
Cassius Ridley: Are you
really both so stupid? *his grip on Kaeleigh's throat tightens and cuts off all
her air* Do not reach for whatever is in your pocket. Tell me what I wish to
know...or die slowly..the choice is yours.
Olivia Boehm: *Another step, tripping
herself in the process*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *hes cut off all her air,
she cant speak, lips gasping and working soundlessly because of it, hands both
reaching to desperately try to grab hands from her throat now*
Cassius Ridley: *he
stands now, easily lifting Kaeleigh up with him in a single hand. He towers over
Livvy standing at nearly 7 feet tall now.* Back...into...the garbage. *he growls
the words at her*
Cassius Ridley: *he looks
back to Kaeleigh* Blink twice if you'll tell me what I want to know. Or I can
simply hang you here until your flame flickers out.
Olivia Boehm: Let her go... *Quietly
pleading now, slinking backwards a little*
Cassius Ridley: Back into
the garbage worm. *he commands her again*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *coughing, struggling with
her hands but not her body(that would make it worse), she blinks twice, hard*
Olivia Boehm: I'll tell you. Just let her
go. *Back another foot or so*
Cassius Ridley: *he
lowers Kaeleigh back down onto her feet and loosens his grip ever so slightly*
The hero's full name...what is it?
Olivia Boehm: Let her go first.
Cassius Ridley: You're
not in the position to make demands girl. Get back into the trash....now.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: thom..thomas......aerin
thomas....*coughing as she says it, her hands still holding to his about her
throat* call......call him....
Cassius Ridley: *he
pushes Kaeleigh back into the wall of the alley and increases the pressure on
her throat again* His number...it's in your phone?
Olivia Boehm: Kae.... *Sounding paniced
now*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she starts coughing
again, wincing, and just goes for it, reaching quick into her pocket and
throwing the phone towards liv*
Cassius Ridley: *he
glances over at the battered Livvy. Such fragile creatures these humans. How
pathetic*
Cassius Ridley: *he
loosens his grip on her throat* Attempt to use that and I'll snap her neck
instantly..and you'll be next.
Olivia Boehm: *Scrambling to catch the
phone*
Olivia Boehm: *His words make her stop
cold, phone barely scooped up*
Cassius Ridley: Open it
up...find the name she spoke. The number is in there? *he growls* Dial it and
she dies...don't try anything swift.
Olivia Boehm: I don't know... *Opening the
phone and fumbling to get into the contact list*
Cassius Ridley: *his
nails dig into Kaeleigh's throat again* Hurry...I don't know how long I can keep
myself from crushing her wind pipe.
Olivia Boehm: It's here...
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes to liv, fingers
gripping to the hand*
Cassius Ridley: Close the
phone. Give it to me. *he holds his hand out*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes to liv, fingers
gripping to the hand*
Cassius Ridley: Close the
phone. Give it to me. *he holds his hand out*
Olivia Boehm: Put her down first.
Cassius Ridley: *he
growls and tightens his grip on Kaeleigh's throat cutting off her air again* Do
you think I can strangle her and take that phone from you at the same time? *he
laughs darkly* I'm pretty sure that I can. *he pauses and then shouts his Rage
flooding forward* GIVE IT TO ME!!
Olivia Boehm: *Shifting her grip on the
phone a bit as if she's getting ready to toss it to him*
Cassius Ridley: Wobble
over here and place it in my hand.
Olivia Boehm: *She moves slowly, every
inch looking painful*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she starts coughing again
at the tightened grip, grasping and grabbing at him, strugging, that rageful
shout getting her a liiiittle panicked now, unable to help it from memories of
something before*
Cassius Ridley: *he
snatches the phone from Livvy and pushes her back down into the trash before he
turns back to Kaeleigh his grip on her throat loosening again* So...should we
call the Hero...and ambush him when he arrives? *he asks as he tilts his head
sideways*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *coughing and gasping, she
tries to take in breaths when the grip loosens again, which only makes her cough
more*
Olivia Boehm: Please let her go now.
Put her down.
Cassius Ridley: Well?
Would you like to see me flay the flesh from the bones of this Aerin?
Cassius Ridley: *he
growls and whips Kaeleigh in Livvy's direction releasing his grip on her throat
and sending her hurtling into the smaller woman.*
Olivia Boehm: *She braces herself as if
that will help, air knocked out of her as she hits the ground under Kae*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *the growl gets a yelp,
ragged for the grip that kept getting put to her throat, the getting whipped in
livvys direction another*
Cassius Ridley: *he
stalks over towards them the phone in his hand which he just now realizes is
open* You stupid bitches!! *he roars at them as he smashes the phone closed*
Cassius Ridley: So you
want to die here? Is that it? Die in the trash like two worms..*he growls at
them* I should crush you beneath my heel..*he glances out the back of the alley*
When the hero arrives tell him we're looking for him...and that we'll have his
daughter one way or another. You don't get to deal with the devil and then slip
out of a bargain *whatever that means* (hehe)
Olivia Boehm: *Wincing, scrambling to get
herself between he and Kae*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *trying to move off of liv,
dizzy from all teh choking, she groans , hopefully at least rolling off*
Cassius Ridley: *he
growls at them* If you've smeared my message to him you'll be sorry. *he moves
over them and snatches Kaeleigh up by the front of her shirt. Finding the glyphs
he's drawn out of blood still in place he tosses her aside once more into some
trash cans* We'll meet again ladies...sweet dreams.
Cassius Ridley: ~he
shifts forms again growing large enough to blot out the light that was trickling
into the alleyway from the street. And then in an instant he's gone, leaping up
and away onto one of the buildings beside the alley. The two battered women can
hear a child squeel with delight, probably Alecia, who just got her hands on
Livvy's coveted kitty hat~
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (has 10 min before husband
to work*hugs* sooo have her pass out? but will be back after dropping him off)
KF: (I'm sure Ravyn
will want to do a wrap up scene with the ladies. I'm off to sleep meself. Thanks
for playing!)
Olivia Boehm: ((i'm in serious need of
sleep myself. we can pause maybe?))
Ravyn: ((OHHHHH,
sure. NOW we pause. ;) ))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (I wont be on again until
saturday sometime*pouts*)
Dusty: LOL
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (and wont be more than a
half hour if*is tired too ut wants to finish this at least*)
KF: (well I have
nothing to do with the wrap up. So if y'all want to pause that's fine with me.
I'm sure it'll be easy enough to play as if bad things happened. Just without
going into detail about what was discussed until you can actually meet up to
play it out)
Ravyn:
((Whatever works best, honestly. I have TT tomorrow night, but will be available
late Friday Night, and Saturday after 6 pm PST (9 PM EST).))
Ravyn: ((In
Aerin's current state, guys, I do have to say that all bets are off as to how
the rest of the scene will go. *Also points at the moon phase...easy frenzy
diffs*))
Dusty: (Good thing the one riding shotgun has Calm
Heart then)
Olivia Boehm: ((i'm on late
afternoon/evening tomorrow, and all weekend for work. so whenever is good for
me))
Dusty: (Well, if I can't be here, Corbin would go
with Aerin then, he was also at the packhouse :)
Olivia Boehm: ((oow.)) *Her head shakes
slowly as if to clear it* Are you okay?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (and her phone taken too
by cassius, he never gave it back*chuckles*) *kae rolls off, groaning, eyes
wanting to open but looking like shes about ready to pass out*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Oh. Yeah. Where are
they, exactly? Aerin's taking the trip from Central, where he last saw Liv, to
Kaeleigh's house. They along there?))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (somewhere along there,
they got pulled into teh alley right near the restaurant she usually goes to
after getting off of work downtown I believe)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Cool.))
Olivia Boehm: Kae? Baby girl?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she starts to speak but
it comes out croaked at first, coughing again, her voice finally comng out
hoarsely* w...what?
Olivia Boehm: Are you okay?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly:
alive...yeah....hurts*coughing again, brows furrowed, she keeps laying down,
fuck it...already in garbage and hurt, so not wanting to get up* you?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: The motorcycle is off
in the distance, still too far away to hear, as he turns off at the corner of
the park, heading down in the direction of Kaeleigh's apartment. It's Corbin's
motorcycle, a second-hand Honda, and he's not ridden one in a while, but he's
moving as quickly as he can, eyes alert and looking for them.
Olivia Boehm: Come on. *Offering a hand,
amazed at just how much the simple movement hurts*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Dex+Drive (WP): 6,3,2,5,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *groaning and when she
manages to sit up slightly(with the offered hands help) gasping, hands moving to
her head and throat as she winces out a silent 'fuck' with her lips*
Olivia Boehm: *Breath held, doing her best
to look as if she's not in the least bit of discomfort* What's hurt?
Olivia Boehm: ((brb. need to restart))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *shes got a nicely
formed bruise under her eye where he hit her cheek, and some fairly deep nail
marks on her neck with some decent bruising around them as well..all this she
points out silently, definately uncomfortable with talking currently*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He's not moving as
fast as he could be...too paranoid, too busy looking out. But he's keeping up
with the flow of traffic...even exceeding it, albeit a bit recklessly.
Olivia Boehm: Oh wow... *Sighing* Come on.
We should get inside somewhere.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: h...home..*coughing again,
nodding VERY slowly, gesturing teh direction of her place which isnt far*
Olivia Boehm: Yeah. Do you need help
getting up?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Eventually, the sound
of the motorcycle comes into their range of hearing, moving way too fast to be
safe, especially as he scans the area.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alert: 5,2,1,3,6,7,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *obviously being stubborn,
she shakes her head and leans forward, trying to get up slowly that way, using a
wall nearby to walk herself up if she needs to*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Dex+Drive: 3,1,4,8,
Olivia Boehm: *Just as well, given that
part of her focus remains on trying to appear steady on her feet*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (almost forgot*G* the gun
got knocked from her hand before they were taken down the alley and was laying
out on the street last I knew)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: The bike nearly slips
out from underneath him as he sees them, and he has to stop the thing, his face
twisting in concentration as he tries to stay upright and keep the thing from
tearing out of his cgrasp before it stops.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (street/sidewalk)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Strength+Ath (WP): 4,6,10,7,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *it takes her a bit, but
eventually(heavily leaning against the wall as she faces it) shes in some
semblance of standing*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He manages, just
barely, to keep the bike under control. Without even bothering to get out of the
street, he looks over and shouts. Not like it's crowded this late at night, and
dammit, they can wait for him. "Kaeleigh! Liv!"
Olivia Boehm: *She looks too quickly at
the shout, making her whole world spin*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she hears the call and
peers from under her hair that way, carefully moving, then moving slowly to keep
a hand against the wall helping herself along walking slowly, one hand moved
towards liv as she coughs to help steady her*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He drags the
motorcycle along with him, over to the sidewalk and leaving it to drop against
the cement on his way to them. His hand dips into his trench coat, coming out
with a gun, and he looks about, eyes narrowed and paranoid, making sure they're
okay. He's moving like the predator that was in Battery, the hunter that was
willing to do battle with a Spiral and kill a little girl. Not the usual Aerin.
Olivia Boehm: *Steadying eachother, she
moves slowly and watches Aerin carefully* We're okay. *More or less...*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Yeah, right." It
hardly takes a master of perception to note that they aren't. Satisfied that
they aren't being watched, he looks over, hard eyes assessing their injuries
quickly.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Med: 2,6,5,9,9,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *very slow nod in
agreement with liv, she waves to aerin, coughing a bit more*
Olivia Boehm: Easy... *Arm sliding around
her gently*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Jesus," he says,
shaking his head as he gets a good assesment of their wounds. "Back into the
alley. Now."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *sighing(and subsequently
wincing at it) she looks from liv to aerin, tilting her head and gesturing the
direction of her place in general again*
Olivia Boehm: *Nodding in silent
agreement with Kae*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Alley. Now." His tone
taking a 'Don't Fucking Argue' tone. "It's closer, and I can't carry both of you
if they come up on us again."
Olivia Boehm: *She hates that tone. It
gets her moving though, turned around and shuffling back into the alley*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she hears it and moves
back as well, coughing again*
Olivia Boehm: Can you breathe okay?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He takes another quick
look around before he slips into the alley, moving them far enough back so that
they're out of view. Once they are, he turns looks at Kae. "Don't freak out, I'm
not going to hurt you." And he places his hand gently over the wounds on Kae's
throat, eyes shutting as he focuses.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Mothers Touch (WP): 4,9,1,5,7,7,
Olivia Boehm: *Hand on her back, rubbing
gently*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *slowly nodding to liv,
she looks to aerin and does cringe just a touch, but otherwise doesnt move,
trusting him fully......but she does keep her eyes closed*
Olivia Boehm: *Forehead resting on Kae's arm for a
second before she stands upright again*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He frowns deeply at
the glyphs on Kae's face, muttering something under his breath in Romani, and
then he slips away to place a hand on Olivia's wounds.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Mothers Touch (WP): 6,4,5,9,7,2,
Olivia Boehm: *She pulls away* I'm fine.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: When she tries to pull
away, he grabs her shoulder, staring her hard in the face. "Swallow your fucking
pride, Olivia. And let me heal you."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *once aerins worked his
'magic' on her she breathes a deep audible now sigh, murmuring softly* Im sorry,
should have been more careful.....he's got my phone now...
Olivia Boehm: It's not about pride. I
deserved what I got. Let me heal on my own.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Cha+Leadership: 10,8,4,1,
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: liv, take it....if they
come back or something else happens and youre not healed up and still hurt and
out of it....*shaking her head gently as she sighs again*
Olivia Boehm: Then it's my own fault...
*Resigned though, not pulling away again*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Fucking martyrs,
that's all this city is," he mutters under his breath. A hard stare at Olivia.
"If you're still hurt and out of it, I can't protect both of you. And SHE might
get hurt. Do you want that?"
Olivia Boehm: No... *Sheepish now, eyes on
the ground*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *thank you gets murmure to
aerin, making her point better than she could*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods a little bit and moves to heal her. ((Keeping the first roll, but I know that's not enough...what's her Rage? I think that applies, even if she hasn't had her First Change yet.))
Olivia Boehm: ((it's just on her sheet
as 1))
Olivia Boehm: *Eyes closed, being very
still*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Olivia Boehm:
((Ashton says her Rage...shall we just assume she has the standard for her
Auspice?))
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *kaes eyes keep flicking
about carefully and cautiously, esp amongst the rooftops, while aerin heals liv*
Olivia Boehm -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
((sounds good. she'd galliard))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: The man is on, it
seems, as almost all of her wounds heal up. ((6 Bash healed, 1 Lethal remains))
He nods a bit and takes a step back, noting Kaeleigh on watch with a very small
smile. "All right. Now, we move. Your apartment, Kaeleigh. You guys in front.
Either of you armed?"
Olivia Boehm: No... *Sighing, hand on
top of her head* Oh son of a BITCH
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: had a gun....pulled it and
shot at him but I think while we were still out on the street it got knocked
from my hands...so...its somewhere out there...hopefully....*licking her lips,
not liking the idea that someone could get a hold of it*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "What," he says to
Olivia, frowning as he moves to get Kaeleigh's gun.
Olivia Boehm: My hat is gone... *Sounding
all at once forlorn and irate*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Invest: 7,9,2,3,3,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Your hat?" A brow
slowly rises, as he moves out and spots the gun. He reaches over to grab it, his
eyes still scanning the vicinity as he does. "What's the significance?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *that gets her to pause
and blink a bit at liv, swallowing hard and taking the gun once its
found/recovered whether by her or aerin*
Olivia Boehm: The little bitch wanted it.
I told her no. *Fully into irate now, kicking the closest object* She took my
fucking hat! Little bitch.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: the last time we dealt
with the ...kid or whatever she was.....she said she wanted livs
hat.....*muttered, but with a bit of an edge to it*
Olivia Boehm: That's it. Next time I see
her, she's dead. *Muttering* Take my kitty hat....
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He hands the gun over
to Kae, staring at Liv. "Tell me, please, that this was over the actual
situation...and not your HAT." He's not angry, he's in utter disbelief.
Olivia Boehm: *Glowering, mumbling
something as her arms cross*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *shes got an odd look on
her face as well glancing to liv, checking over the gun quick and readying it in
her hand, hand slipping into coat pocket with it*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly:
d10: per+alert: 3,9,6,4,5,9,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "A fucking hat." He
shakes his head, jaw clenching...pulsing several times. "Unfuckingbelievable. A
HAT." He grabs Liv's hand and holds it up, putting his own gun in her
hand. "Safety's on. Anything shows up on the way, you get Kaeleigh the fuck
away, and you both point and shot at anything coming your way. As you RUN. Got
me?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she takes a deep breath,
lets it out sloooooowly, eyes narrowing*.....he took.....my cellphone.....my
fucking cellphone...with my MOTHERS number amongst others on it........and youre
pissy like this......over a goddamn hat?*snorting softly, she shakes her head
and starts walking towards her house*
Olivia Boehm: *Jaw clenched, nodding once*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods slightly,
pulling out one more gun...this one looks smaller, and modified, perhaps. It's
slipping into his outer pocket, and he takes up position behind them, letting
Kae lead the way to her place. The way he moves is tense, on constant alert, as
he watches the empty streets around them.
Olivia Boehm: *She's still obviously
irritated, but watchful as they move*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *shes walking at a decent
pace now, hands thrust in her coat pockets, the one holding onto the gun at hte
ready the whole time, silent the entire way back , eyes flicking up above and to
the alleys every once in a while*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((And, unless someone
wants to notify KnifeFrown so we can have more fun combat... *G*)) They make it
to Kaeleigh's house unaccosted.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
(*chuckles* doooont you dare*G* tired and headachey as it is LOL, and I have to
open tomorrow....if werent for those things Id say hell yeah*chuckles, hugs*)
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *past the doorman rather
quickly, hair covering her face, she makes it to her door in record time
unlocking it and stepping inside, leaving it open behind her for others to get
in, fingers finally coming from coat pockets and twitching, flexing slowly*
Olivia Boehm: *She hands the gun back to
Aerin as soon as they're inside*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Oh, yeah. He walked
Corbin's bike with them. *L*)) He takes the gun from Olivia, and starts moving
throughout the apartment. "Wait here." He starts to do a systematic check of the
apartment, making sure it's secure.
Olivia Boehm: *Staying in place, arms
crossed again*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *and if all things are
well theres no signs of anyone having been there aside from kae for a while,
moving to the door to shut and lock it up tightly while aerin does his check*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He comes back out,
giving them a nod. "The apartment's secure...we're fine, for now." He shrugs out
of his trench coat, moving to hang it up, and wrestling out of his shoulder
holster after. The gun, though, goes into his beltline.
Olivia Boehm: *Cracking her neck as she
goes to look out the window*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *and shes headed into the
kitchen once theres the all clear,glass clinking and clanking heard* need to
figure out how to get my mom to change her cell number just to be safe......I
mean, considering her job and all....and youre going to need to change yours
again too aerin......I really am sorry about that...*all said from within te
kitchen*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "No, it's fine," he
says with a faint smirk. "Four numbers in three months...it's like a scheduled
biweekly event, these days." The smirk quickly vanishes, though, as he moves
into the kitchen to get something to drink. "Tell your mother the truth. Someone
stole your phone, and the authorities--namely, me--have advised that anyone
close to you change their number."
Olivia Boehm: *Following after a
minute, lured by the sounds of glass and ice*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: she'll ask what
authorities......she does work dispatch after all...*when he walks into the
kitchen shes got the bottles of good whiskey out, three glasses, one already
poured she hands to him, taking another and pouring some in it* I could say it
was a disgruntled patient or patients family that wasnt reported to the police
for some reason or another .......
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He takes the glass and
nods. "Whatever works. Just make sure she does it. Me...I'm leaving my number
active for a bit, but I'll have a new one."
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *the next glass gets
handed to liv, and another poured*....alright....*nodding, brows furrowed, she t
akes a drink once its poured and closes her eyes, sighing softly*
Olivia Boehm: Thanks... *Both hands
wrapped around it, resisting the urge to down it all at once*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He takes a string
swallow off the glass, and leans against the counter. "So what happened,
exactly?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *she looks to liv,
gesturing that she tell what happened, taking a bottle and her glass and heading
for the livingroom to sit on the couch*
Olivia Boehm: We were heading to the
restaurant, and we could hear the little brat. Like... all around us. Then the
guy was just there.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: cassius, she called him
cassius
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Cassius." He nods,
absorbing that information. "All right."
Olivia Boehm: Yeah. Cassius. *Muttering
again, trailing into the living room*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Then what?"
Olivia Boehm: Then I got my ass kicked.
*Draining the glass*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "He just came in and
took you guys down without warning?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: then he beat on us,
dragged us into the alley, and wanted to know your name.......
Olivia Boehm: From the park.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: she sent him down and
taunted at us to not run, like she wanted us too
Olivia Boehm: It wasn't exactally without
warning. There just wasn't anything I could do about it. *Scowling, holding the
empty glass out to Kae*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *the bottle is set down
when liv holds the glass out to her(after she refills her own of course*G*)*
Olivia Boehm: *Pouring a healthy slug,
then settling in again*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: A low sound escapes
his throat, not toward anything in particular. Suspiciously like a growl. "All
right. So her voice come out from everywhere, he showed up, and she said not to
run, which of course was your only option. So then he beat you down...and
dragged you into the alley and asked for my name." Just clarifying the order of
events.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: yes.....
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods shortly. "Did
he or she say anything that struck you as odd? Anything that didn't make sense,
or seemed off to you?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: something about telling
you you make a deal with the devil you cant go back on the bargain?
Olivia Boehm: Other than the disembodied
voice, and the fucking psycho song, and him hitting like a frieght train?
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: and when he thouht Id
ruined whatever the fucks on my face he seemed real pissed....he wanted me to do
somehting, wanted liv to do something so they could take us back somewhere and
do things
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Yes, Liv." He scowls
at her. "Besides the obvious." He looks to Kaeleigh, frowning deeply...eyes
narrowing to slits. Not at her, but at her words. "Deal with the devil? Deal
with the fucking devil..." He shakes his head and takes a drink. "What do you
ean, he wanted you to do something? Do what?"
Olivia Boehm: He wanted revenge for last
time. *Scowling back*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: as in seemed like they
wanted to have an excuse to 'do things' to us, take us somewhere and do things
to us
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: That draws a frown
from him. "Why would he need you to do something for..." He considers it a
moment, then dismisses it. "Did he say what he would do to you?"
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: (I know he did say a
couple things but heck if I can remember em right now, kae would tho considering
her eiditec memory)
Olivia Boehm: *She drains the glass the
second time, and stands up*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Assuming it's
appropriate vileness, hideousness, and torture. *G*)) He nods quietly, seeming
more relaxed at the descriptions then he was while they were walking down the
stret. "All right. Important question. Did either of them try to make you come
willingly?"
Olivia Boehm: *Frowning just a little* No.
I don't think so? *Looking over at Kae*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: (hun
I haaaate to do this but Im gettin real beat, almost fell asleep a couple of
times......she wants aerin to stay the night, wants to curl up in the bed with
him(knows shes going to have nightmares)...shes still quite irked and ticked at
liv
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: seemed like at one point
he might have...yes....but it was only once
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Kaeleigh O'Reilly:
((NP. He's going to insist that Liv stay, too, sadly, because it's not safe, and
she's a retard in his mind...but he'll cirul up with her. Liv can take the
couch. *G*))
Olivia Boehm: *Her head shakes a
little* I've gotta pee. *Heading for the bathroom*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "All right." He nods
and lets her go. When the door to the bathroom closes, he pulls out the smaller,
modified gun, releasing the clip and making sure the syringe darts are inside
and still in order.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Kaeleigh's comment
draws a thoughtful frown from him, and he nods to that.
Olivia Boehm: *The water turns on from the
sink, and runs*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
(good call....*G*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *eyes flick towards the
bathroom and she sighs, shaking her head and flicking a glance to aerin*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: The clip is slipped
back in, and he slides the gun away, into it's holster at his back. He looks to
Kaeleigh, finally offering her a smile...faint, but warm. He moves to the
window, looking out it briefly.
Olivia Boehm: *The water turns off after a
few minutes and she comes back out. While she's not exactally sunny, she does
seem significantly less pissy than she was*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: Im
tired.....really....damn tired....also thinking I should probably move or
something...but not tonight.....tonight I just want to...head to bed and go to
sleep....*moving towards the window hes looking out*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks over as Liv
comes out. "We're all staying here tonight...no one's going out alone. Not after
that."
Olivia Boehm: Okay. *Going over and
pouring herself one more glass, draining it almost as quickly*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Moving would be a
good idea," he says to Kaeleigh, nodding his agreement. "We'll worry about that
later. For now, let's all try and get some rest."
Olivia Boehm: *She sets the glass back
down, eyeing the couch*
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *nodding again as she
yawns, she did jus t get off a long shift before all this started, and she
starts to nod off just sitting there* (ie I need to get, starting to fall asleep
again*hugs*)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He watches Olivia for
a long moment, then sighs and pours himself another drink. "We'll be okay," he
says, to neither of them in particular. "We're going to get through this." He
downs the drink quickly.
Olivia Boehm: Who's sleeping where?
*Watching Aerin drink*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Kae's house, she gets
the bed," he says with a shrug. "And, by the fact of your guys's...situation,
that puts you on couch duty." He moves to gather the dozing Kae up and take her
in to sleep.
Olivia Boehm: *Her eyes flicker to Kae,
giving her a questioning look even as she shrugs* Okay. Whichever.
Kaeleigh O'Reilly: *kaes already fast asleep
when she gets picked up, that long of a day* (*hugs ya both and heads to bed
too* see y'all tmorrow hopefully after work*G*)
Olivia Boehm: ((*snugs* bed for me too.

'night))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Thanks for the
scene! *Hugs both*))
