Aira smiled slightly and and nodded. she crouched down to James, slowly picking him up. "Which way to the Castle?" She asked, when he was on his feet.

James got up and pointed south. "A hop, skip and a jump to the north. I'll show you how to get there." On the way out he turned back to Avarice and grinned. "Rematch, you'll know when." With that being said he stumbled outside of the club with Aira and started off towards Vaclav Castle.
((You post first =P))

Salazar had made it halfway to the Hunting Grounds when he had to stop and shift back into his human form. The split was happening, he had left his good half in control for too long. It felt like a huge spike of flame was being shoved into his brain. He tried to control it, but it was useless. Within a few seconds the other half had taken control of his entire mind. "Good." He said with a smirk on his face. "I thought I was going to vomit with all of that romantic nonsense." Now walking with complete control, he strolled into the club and looked around for his boss.

A racket came from the bar, Miri Standing over some human with a disdainful look on her face. her foot was firmly planted on his throat, her four inch heel slowly pressing down to cut his air supply off. " Disgusting little worm.. tell me, do you see the white light yet? No? Maybe hell fire then?"

Salazar looked over to the racket and saw Miri. Yep, thats her alright. He thought to as he walked over to the two. Looking at the human and then to his companion he smirked and said. "You've stuck my curiosity. What did he do?"

Blinking she looked up at him, saying simply. " He called me a baby." the man under her foot started to give quite chokeing sounds, the bartender behind them letting out a bark of laughter at her comment.

Salazar snickered a little too but it quickly passed. "Well you can't go around choking random people because of insults...at least not in public. Now get your foot off him and let him go." He laughed a bit more but stopped suddenly. A bright light caught his eye and he saw a man sitting at the bar, motioning for him to come over. "Eh be right back, try not to...meh." He walked on over to where the man was sitting and looked him with interest.
"Are you Salazar Neri?" He asked bluntly.
"Yeah, what about it?"
The man smiled. "I'm V, soldier of fortune. And for a peck of your fortune I'll tell you something that would really...perk your interest."
Salazar thought it over. This guy didn't seem right, but he figured he'd give and toss him some coin. Not much use for it with him anyways. He put a few bills in his hands and said. "Half, you get the rest when you're done."
V nodded and began the story. "I was doing some recon work for a client when I heard that Kirai had been captured by your boss Avarice."
"Why would I care, look give me my money back."
"Wait." V said, putting a hand up to Salazar. "Think about it. When Mr. Gray hears about this he's going to rush over there and try to save her. But if you get there first, you can lie in wait and kill him on arrival. How about that?"
The thought made him grin. "I like that idea." he quickly shoved the rest of the money in V's hands and ran back over to Miri. "Good news, I got a job to go run real quick. You just sit tight and grab a drink. I won't be long." He looked at the man, still on the floor and said. "Oh, and go ahead and kill him, I'm in a good mood." With that being said he turned around and started for the keep, smiling.

Leaning back in his chair D studied his cards.. attention on the room itself as he laid down his royal flush. the other men just grumped good naturedly.. they were all cheating bastards, the only reason they played together was to learn new ways to cheat. no one could figure out how D did it, and he was all too pleased to let them try. he was dressed as expected.. black clothing and void of weapons, his feet proped on the back of the chair next to him and crossed at the ankles as he suckered the others out of another round of money. the only humans here were dope adicts or brainless fools, most of the crowd being sups. it was why he felt so at home here, what with the sin and lowlife scum. his gaze flicked to the man to his left. someone could slice the fools neck, and no one would bat a eyelash. Oh yes.. this place fit him like a glove.

James and Michael walked into the club, scanning the many people there. "So, this is the Hunting Grounds...interesting. I've heard a lot of unsavory types come here."
"Hey, I'm not unsavory. I just wanted to earn my title." James mused, watching a particular group play cards. "Hmm, how long has it been since we've played poker?"
Mike grinned. "A few hundered years. Still feel lucky?"
James returned the grin and started on over. "Always, come on. If anyone knows about this guy, we'll find him here." He reached the table and took one fo the empty seats. Mike followed after him and sat across the table. It was an old game they played, The would pretend not to know each other and give singals on when to fold, raise, and etc. Not once had they ever been caught. "So mates, what's the game?"

At their arrival D simply shuffled the cards, hardly seeming to pay attention to them as he passed around the alotted number of cards to everyone at the table.
it was the man to his left, a twitchy fellow with red hair, that answered. " Glide or Snide." A slang term for Poker.. because here, you either had a snide temper to your cheating and got away with it.. or got a free glide into a unmarked grave.
" Duce and Sevens are wild, boys." D announced with amusement, rolling a coin along his knuckles as he always did when waiting. it made others nervous.. he could smell it.. and in truth he just enjoyed keeping people on edge. " Shall we open the bet at 5 Grand?"

Michael raised his brow but showed no other emotion other than looking to James for help.
James just smiled and placed his money on the table. Meanwhile a dark cloud shot under their legs unnoticed and hit Michael's pocket.
When smoke cleared Mike found a great sum of cash had been placed there. He didn't ask how or why, but he placed five G's of it on the table and smiled back. "Deal em."

A chuckle was their only warning, Four large lycan's catching them by their arms and pinning the pair in place.. The red head laughing nervously as he gathered the money they had placed on the table and scampered off, muttering about dumb rich people. The man John stood, slaming his fist into the table as he asked in his gravely tone. " Sorry boys, in-group game only. why carry around so much money when your going into a theives pit? not too bright, yeah?"
D made no move to help or hinder the lycan's.. allowing the burly man to his right to take control of the situation as he gathered and shuffled the cards again.. openly smirking as he lit a cig and took a drag of it. John and his temper.. those Lycan's couldnt hold their 'guests' for long.. but then, he'd been waiting for someone to get mad enough and kill the man. so he just sat back and blew a smoke ring, waiting for the Crusnik to try and talk first. he looked the type.. where as the Lugaru must be the heavy. interesting..

While Michael looked a bit nervous James just started to laugh. "Right about that money..." A snap of his fingers and the bills in the man's hans disapeered into black puffs of smoke. "Like I'd ever actually spend money here." As he spoke a putrid green light encricled his arms and crawled up the lycan's bodies. It began to suck away at their life force, weaking their limbs to that of a old mans. A simple tug was all that was needed to rip their arms from their sockets.
Mike took advantage of the lycan's confusion and ripped himself free, drawing his sword and moving to stand next to James. "Now, how about we just sit down and talk about our days today hmm? You in particular." This was direcxted at D, whom Michael had been eyeing since they had stepped in. He fit the discription sure, but was he the man? "Kill anyone today?"

Just as he thought.. this Lugaru had some interesting talents. sadly.. they would not work on him, but it was still intertaining. unphased by the turn of the tide D simply took another drag, standing and pulling his jacket on as he smiled.. shaking his head as he pointed at the sulking red head. " now that you ask, Bobby here did. and so did John.. and that group in the corner.. well damn, this is the place for killers tonight, isnt it?" with another shake of his head he simply walked by them, passing close to Michael as he chuckled. " Careful who you question, little brother. people get touchy here." with that said he was heading out of the club at a easy walk and smokeing his cig.. smileing slightly as gave them time to either fallow, or lolly gag behind to question the others in the club. Either way, he had things to do.

Michael knew it was him now and nodded over at James for him to follow. While his comission was to 'handle' the situation. There was no reason he couldn't enjoy a nice conversation first, maybe even find something to put in a file.
James gave the other lycans one last glare before tossing the limbs on the floor and tailing Michael, making sure to keep an eye on the remaining men. "Well, this isn't the craziest situation we've been in before."
Mike ignored him and caught up to D, walking beside him. "So, 'brother'. I've been hearing things about you. Stories about slaughter, massacre, the whole spiel. Satisfy my morbid curiosity and enlighten me about these stories."
