Blood and Roses [Inactive]

Hiemler:


well it seems like they are too into it to even notice that I am here. I walked down the alley until I was just out of arms reach from them, "excuse me miss is there a problem here?" I asked. this was probably going to be odd for them seeing as a vampire is now amongst them
 
Quentin decided to let them deal with each other. He sighed loudly as he turned back around. "You two know where to find me. Tell your friend I have no idea what nonsense she's talking about. As I said, my offer always stands to those who want it." He noticed the vampire had come outside. "This doesn't concern you, either get inside or get lost. Don't make me you're next problem"

Lucy frowned and shifted pulling the girl into a hug. She knew how it was. It was rough out there, but she felt honestly in the girl for some reason. She turned and noted the vampire. She bared her teeth and let out a low growl, her inner wolf still strong.


"Sorry sweetness, these are wolf parts you're in. I don't need any help." She said warily not wanting to turn her back to the vampire. A bite is lethal.
 
Kayla shook in Lucy's arms, staring at the vampire. "We're fine! Is there a problem with you? Because, I'm sure the scent of wolf is all over this place! Get lost!" she snarled, resisting the urge to shift again and leap at the monster. The only thing holding her back was Lucy and she didn't want to hurt her in the fray of claws and teeth.
 
She focused again on Kayla and took a deep breath urging her to hone in on herself. "Kayla. You're fine sweetheart. You are in no way threatened here. A wolf belongs to a pack and the pack belongs to the wolf right?" She said soothingly to the shaking female in her arms.
 
Quentin saw that the girl's were capable so he turned and went back to his office. There was too much going on at once and he needed time to try to reflect on what this image meant. This night just keeps getting better and better. He reached in a drawer under his desk and pulled out a personal bottle of Scotch and took a swing, and then pulled a pendant out from underneath his shirt. If this true...then what happened to you? Quentin put his head in his hands at he stared off at the screen and got lost in past memories.
 
Hiemler:


"alright then" I said as i turned back around and started down the street. "wolves, worried so easy" i said aloud into the night sky. "I think ill call this one in" I pulled out my phone and called a friend of mine in Germany. "Hey I got a Wolf cell here in northern Scotland, let the hunters know, these one are too stuck in the past that their ideologies will never change. Thanks again..... yeah bye" well now if my friend still had contacts they would be in the area within the day. might as well lay low see what happens and if things get too hot see my old friend Albin again.
 
Kayla looked up at Lucy, the female soothing her. "You sure? I-I promise I didn't kill those people! Honest!" she clung to the girl's shirt, looking deep into her eyes. "I promise," she whispered, her eyes turning back to its normal warm brown. Her breathing slowed, matching Lucy's. "Thank you. I get panic attacks a lot," she looked down, chuckling nervously and embarrassed, her cheeks red.
 
Sarah had heard commotion coming from the back and had waited a good while until things had calmed down. What the hell is going on back there? She finished serving a few more patrons before she decided to go take a peek for herself. She burst through the back doors and made her way to Q's office, and as she opened the door she found his office had been redecorated by someone who had lost their cool. "Is everything..." she noticed the bottle of Scotch on the desk in front of Quentin. She stood there not sure of what to do. He was usually such a cheerful guy, and judging from the room something had upset him. His computer screen was the only thing giving the light room, and it just barely illuminated him. She couldn't tell if he was staring at her or if his face was pointed down, but either way she thought it best to leave the questioning for later. Where did those girl's go? Maybe something happened...no, he's definitely not that type of guy. What the hell!" Her anxiety was getting the better of her but she slowly backed out of the room and went to man the bar. He believed in her and helped her out so much, so the least she could do was keep things running smoothly until he got his facilities back in order

Richard nodded to the woman who seemed bored "It is, though I take it from your voice this is not your first?" her actions and switch of tone only lead him to guess at her real age. There was experience in her voice but as with any vampire he never questioned their age. What good would it do for creatures that are all but immortal. Still he smiled back to her and the gentleman. Recalling his master's invitation as his only clue he decided it was best now to begin digging into the possibilities. "I came in my father's place, I had hoped to apologies for his missed attendance to our host, Pertourabo, but alas maybe later when he is free." Turning briefly to his surroundings then back to the young woman. "So what brings you to this gathering?" as he enjoyed the last of the wine, setting the glass down upon the table.

She smiled and rubbed the girls back softly "now how about we go back in the bar, take Alpha boy up on his offer, and then get that cute barista to make you some of that hot chocolate that she made me" she said with a smile and a wink. This day has been crazy.... "and also, I believe you. You don't need to promise me a thing.." She listened into the vampire's conversation. "Shit... he knows the hunters" She mumbled. Her eyes lit up in panic, "Come on.." She then took her hand and led her back inside the bar and into the alphas office without batting an eye.


"Guy, we have a problem." She said cautiously.
 
Pedr:


This man was interesting to me he looked dignified yet not too over embellished like the lot that usually comes to these types of things. "you see my friend there are people completely content with the way things are for our kind. Then there are people like our host who want to change the world, yet we are not, how would you say it?.... his goals do not exactly align with ours" I came a little closer to him "so I ask you this my friend what is your opinion on the human condition?"
 
"That vampire. He called the hunters. Said he knew our cell. You're an alpha, so get your wolves ready, it's fight or flight right now." She said seriously in her usual down to business nature. She let go of Kaylas hand and stepped towards the alpha "I'm new to this, but this place feels like home to me. I can vouch for Kayla if she wishes to join as well, but we're stronger together than apart. I wish to join your pack." She said confidently to the wolf.
 
Rose was about to reply to Richard's questions but Pedr did so before she could. She smiled joyfully as he perfectly portrayed their feelings about the subject. She then looked to Richard waiting for a response. She sensed this man would indeed be a useful asset to her plans.
 
Hiemler:


I decided it was rude to keep my old friend waiting for too long and I made my way Albins manor, the vampire meeting for the year and I was late. I wonder how the wolves will fare against the hunters? calling them might have put Albins home at risk even, then again they might have already know about the place, and what goes on inside of those tall walls that surrounds the manor.
 
Kayla followed close, nodding. "I'll join too. I'm also new to this Pack thing but I'm a great fighter," she stood straight, shaking her feelings of jealousy for the barista. "I'm a good girl," she teased quietly, trying to light the mood. She wanted to cling onto Lucy's arm, still wary of this Alpha but she trusted him enough if Lucy did.

Richard couldn't help but let off a small laugh then talking lightly back to the gentleman. "Human condition...?" his finger dancing around the glass "I have never seen it put that way, but if you wanted my honest opinion they are but a means to an end." as his finger lifted he crossed his arms staring back at the two. "By chance then if you did not come to please the host you instead seek another motive?" his smile turning to a smirk "What goals do yours align to if I am to be so bold?" awaiting the two who now had him intrigued. It was true the setting of this gathering was to different from his master's teachings and there was indeed something else going on within the community of these gatherings. If by chance it could lead to answers then who knew where this route would take him.
 
Quentin stood there for a moment as he mind began to clear, and a few moments later he had regained his senses. "Alright. listen up; I need you two to stay here for a minute," He left the room and headed out to tell Sarah to shut the bar down and close up shop, and then to head straight to her apartment when she was finished. Coming back to the office he could see the look in the young wolves eyes. "As you said their are two option here; I ask you though, which do you want to do? I have the other's scattered around the city and communicating with each other via phone, I've been caught once with all of us in 1 place and I won't lose my daughter again..." he realized he blurted that out without thinking and quickly said "family again...my pack was set upon in a large group and we lost too much." He walked to the back of the room and slid a bookcase to the side that revealed a set of stairs that were suddenly illuminated by a row of lights. "It took my pack and I a long time to carve out these catacombs, but I know them like the back of my hand, so for now we leave this place and lay low to see what we're going to be dealing with. So for a while it's going to be us, and I'll explain the rest of the details later." God forbid I get a moment to think...The life of an Alpha; Pack before self, that's how it has to be if we're to survive all this. He motioned for the girls to make their way down as he went under his desk to grab a few bottles of his homemade hooch, tailored for their kind.
 
Rose's tone yet again changed to it's more mature form. "We come seeking allies." She looked him directly in the eyes, a ferocity and wickedness in her own. "Humans, " she began. "They are fragile creatures, they live such short lives making them emotional and petty." Her words were calculated and calm and distant. "They are ignorant, they cause wars without a second thought, leave many in poverty to starve, they are all together filthy." Her words were becoming venomous now. Her childlike face was stern, her small frame rigid and serious just as Pedr's. "They need to be disciplined, and put in their place."
 
She nodded grabbing Kaylas hand softly and sending a sweet look to her, "I'm glad you joined" she then let go and began heading down the stairs into the catacombs below the bar. I wonder what he meant by losing his daughter... I wonder if this is him... She thought to herself. But it couldn't be... it wouldn't be so bad if it was him though. She stepped farther inside the cavern, her eyes glowing amber as they adjusted to the system.
 
Sarah didn't quite get it but he seemed to be better, definitely jumpy and worried but better, so she decided to do as he said. She knew he was reliable so she didn't second guess him any further and quickly went to sending out the masses, collecting the cash for the night, putting the place back in order, and cleaning off everything. It was a painstaking ordeal but she didn't mind. She was sad, however that she wasn't going to get the chance to see that girl again. She was really excited about the end of this night and possibly getting her alone, but maybe it just wasn't meant to be. She was now moving at a visibly slower rate with less enthusiasm as the thought of missing out on something so great consumed her. Damn that man! I bet this is all his doing! She finished up and headed out to her apartment to shower the night's failure away.
 
"Lucy? What if...what if he's here to kill us?" she whispered, shaking just a bit. "Where do you think this goes? Because I'm not going into a sewer," she teased trying to lighten the mood. Her wolf senses heightened by the darkness. "Where are you from? Because I need to talk about something besides this because I'm kinda scared," she laughed nervously.

Richard took the tone of voice as a sign that he was hitting the mark. A true vampire and pure would see the humans as such. Even though his past may have started as human that life was long since thrown away. The image of that man selling him off for a few coin made Richards fangs extend. Her words where harsh but the did not seem blind in hate only in disgust. His voice and posture stood firm "My father was like you. His words always rang with wisdom beyond the years, and his hate for any mortal only grew with time." as he looked down to meet her eyes "If you are seeking allies then there must be some who disagree..." turning to the host then to the window outside, the city lights flickering off far in the horizon "...and what would you say to those of our lineage who do not see it your way?" as his eyes met back at hers.
 
Quentin followed behind closing the secret passage and locking it from the inside. He was sad to to have to leave his precious bar, it had really been good to him. He made his way to the bottom of the stairs. "Well, she had a good run," his eyes took a moment to adjust to the darkness, "So it looks like that time has come. I'm guessing that was their version of a half-assed conversation about how I was planning on dealing with the question of our future," His voice was rough and his irritation apparent. "Planning on chasing me into a corner so that I have no choice but to join their cause," he laughs a bit, "What is the strength of 1 wolf pack versus that of the likes of the undying, possible other packs, and hunters, who are too stupid and tunnel visioned to see that they are a means to an end that will inevitably be their very undoing." He hands both girls a bottle. "Just follow closely..." He makes a left at the next carved out tunnel.
