Anna walked into the General Areas a few minutes after Jason, looking a little perturbed that she had been called back in before her first real "mission" even began. Taking a seat, she glances over to see Kerrigan and who she could only assume to be Tokeru, arguing about something before being confronted by an elderly Japanese man. At least it was nice to see hunters around this place as compared to the first couple hours she had been here.

Amnity timidly walked up to the woman who was talking to a japanese man. She lightly tapped her on the shoulder. "Ex-Exuse me, but...I am lost, can you tell me where we are?" sweatdrop

Kerrigan looked at the girl who was tapping her shoulder. She was glad that they were getting new recruits, but at the same time with everything going on, they really needed the senior members here.
"Um, yea. Welcome to Haven. This is the general areas right now and we are about to get some sort of meeting underway, so if you could just hang out, that would be great." She gave the woman a fanged smile, motioning for her to join the others before turning back to Uncle.

Amnity felt tense, she saw the woman's fangs, memories flooded into her mind of that unfortunate winter nigh- She snapped herself out of it. Of course there are such things as vampire/hunters, why shouldn't there be? Since her grandfather was a Zealot he taught her that others such as a vampire can be a hunter too, besides, the woman had a kind smile, she wouldn't hurt a human. Amnity smiled and nodded before taking a seat. occasionaly she looked over at the vampire/hunter, not because she doesn't trust her, but because she looked pretty upset about something.Curiosity was itching in her skin.

Anna smiled at the new girl as she sat down, still looking over at Kerrigan. Leaning a little closer to her, she dropped her voice a little bit so she did not sound like a gossip, though it might look quite the opposite.
"That's Kerrigan Taylor, one of the big shots around here. Her reputation kind of proceeds her," she said with a small laugh as she saw Kerrigan and the other two still talking. Whatever they were talking about sure seemed important, specifically to Kerrigan. Still, she would wait until she was told what this whole meeting thing was about before she took sides.

Amnity thanked her politely. Of course, Miss Talyor must be a very important woman to the hunters, it must be difficult to be her though.
She felt tense though, it was night already and it was about time for her to patrol a section of the city. But she calmed herself, whatever this meeting is about it might be important. She took out her black leather soft covered book and flipped to the page where she marked.

{[{ Meredith Emily Jackson }]}  Eden had actually been somewhat surprised to see that Kerrigan had made her way toward the infirmary in order to get herself some blood until she was side-tracked by something. Yeah Meredith had been following Kerrigan out of slight concern but mostly to assure that she was going to be going to go and get some blood. The last thing Kerri needed was herself blowing up at everyone or accidentally killing an innocent human because she'd pushed her thirst much too far. Edith knew exactly how shitty it felt to do that and if she could help prevent Kerri from doing so then that was the exact action that she was going to take. Kerrigan was a friend and the last thing Eden was going to do was leave Kerrigan while she was thirsty and upset so that she might make a poor choice and choose not to have a drink of blood before she went out to search for Krii. Yes she was worried about him and wanted to search for him but at the same time she had to take care of herself since that would be what Krii would want most for her anyhow. He'd want her to stay safe and to be strong in his absence.
After following Kerrigan down the hallway she lead Eden to a more general area in Haven which had collected a few hunters, Edith looked around. This lead Meredith to figure that Kerrigan's distraction had been due to Tokeru recalling his planned meeting from a few days ago until he decided not to since the hunters had been difficult to locate. When she entered the room everyone was in complete silence and she noted that Uncle was there as well. She could feel the tension between Kerrigan and Tokeru and Edith knew that Kerri was still upset with him for other events. However, despite her brother's fiance and her own fiance not getting along she chose not to take sides and remain as neutral as possible in their ongoing conflict. She liked both of them and cared a lot about both of them, however she probably would be wrong to say that she and Kerrigan were close. They knew hardly anything about one another and they hardly saw eachother that often so it'd probably be wrong to call her a close friend though she was pretty close to Sethe.
Since Eden tended to dislike silence and since she was a fairly talkative person she decided to say something in order to lift the silence that had befallen everyone. Yeah some of the people here would probably think she was a dipshit and not appreciate her opening her mouth because they preferred silence but Meredith couldn't stand silence. Silence lead to miscommunication and it lead to many other things that could be referred to as negative. Bystanders for instance were negative since they were silent and just stood by as someone else was suffering and that was not the way of the hunters. "Hey everyone. How are all of you tonight? I suppose hardly any of you know me minus Kerri, Uncle and Tokeru but I'm Eden. I suppose James knows my name but that's about it. Anyhow hi everyone and feel free to introduce yourselves if you want. And to all of you that are new to haven which seem to be near majority of you, welcome and if you've got any questions feel free to run them by me unless it involves someone that needs to be a leader in which case I'll refer you to Tokeru or William since Krii'Ouse is absent." With that Eden decided to take a seat and put a sock in it.

James walked in spinning his revolvers in a bored way. His red eye and blue eye scanning the room. "Not many wolves here." He said mostly to himself. "Good." He quickly checked his revolvers were loaded then sat in a back corner. He pulled his hat down over his eyes and leaned back.

Uncle turned to the man who had referenced the lack of 'wolves' present. He walked up to the man, and looked upon him with a stern, measuring face. 'You would be wise to hold your tongue, fool.' he said with disciplinary action in his voice. 'You never know who may be what, and you may never know who may be engaged to whom.' He motioned towards Kerrigan, and shook his head at the man.
Returning to Kerrigan and Tokeru, he frowned. 'How have we grown so desperate as to allow closed minded fools among our ranks? What has Will been doing with his time? It is as if he does not properly interview each new member, and learn their agendas and measure not only their capabilities, but also their acceptance of others?' he sighed loudly.
'Regardless, Tokeru, continue.'

Tokeru shook his head, if he spoke now, it would just confuse everyone. He glanced over to where the remaining hunters were sitting, and saw his love, he sent her a brief smile and walked to the front, hoping more hunters would arrive, just one or two more. That's all he needed, one or two more.

When Tokeru just walked away from uncle and herself, Kerrigan had to use every ounce of restraint she had to not leap on him and beat the s**t out of him right here in front of all the other hunters. Looking at Uncle, she gave him a sort of apologetic look. If no one was going to look for Krii, then she would do it herself. She was not about to waste time listening to Tokeru babbling on when he was missing. Standing back still, she looked at Uncle, hoping he would tell her what to do.

Another hunter arrived, and Tokeru sighed. Time to begin this then
He took a deep breath "Beware, not fully good, back up, may injure accident, humans especially."
He then dove deep into his own fractured mind, and brought out that part of himself that fixed it temporarily, that allowed him to speak normally, at a cost.
To all those that watched, it seemed as if his skin turned a shade of yellow, and it seemed as if a mist began to enshroud him.
Tokeru looked at Kerrigan, "Kerrigan, wait. Krii would agree with me, that sending more hunters to be killed is of no use, and especially you. If you were to get killed, he would blame me for not being able to keep you safe, and would kill anyone that didn't stop you. So don't go out by yourself."
He turned to the meagre amount of hunters, and took another few breaths, sweat began to bead down his neck.
"Look, I dont have much time to be able to speak like this, so I'll make it brief. Haven is crumbling, we have almost no hunters, and most hunters that remain make it their business to disobey orders and hunt on their own, almost getting killed in the process. From now on, hunters are not allowed to go hunting alone, every hunter must be accompanied by someone, or they are to remain here, guarding Haven.
Second, one of our leaders has gone missing, our other leader has been strangely quiet and distant, his wife and child also seem to have disappeared, we don't know where, but we know they are not here.
Krii'ouse, was captured by someone, we don't know who, but I am certain no good can come from going to find him alone, and will almost certaintly result in injury and death. Since the other leaders have gone silent, I am taking command of Haven until such a time that I am relieved of this duty.
Kerrigan, you know Krii, and you know that if he was captured, we don't stand a single chance, not all of us combined. He is the muscle of Haven, and if he was taken down, we have no chance whatsoever. We just need to believe that whoever took him knows how important he is, and didn't kill him. What we need now, is a plan, a plan to find him, and to keep us safe. Any Ideas?"
He stopped talking and took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself. It was different than in a battle, because he needed to keep the instinctive part of him inside, and stop it from making him kill people, and it was incredibly hard, and taking a toll on him.

As Kerrigan listening to him, she took a deep breath, knowing that he was right about a lot of things. The problem was that he was not listening to the whole picture, and worse, he had not been listening the whole time she had been talking to him before he started his little meeting. It was all well and good for him to step up and try to take on leadership responsibilities, but Kerrigan knew these hunters better than him, and at the same time, she knew what Will would have had them do if he were giving orders right now.
"I agree with everything you are saying Tokeru. I don't like it, but I agree with it. The thing is, we have other obligations to hold up as well. Losing Krii is of my highest importance right now, but we still have the vampire elders to deal with. Their performance at the Docks was not natural, and there is more going on there than meets the eye. We need t find Krii, but at the same time we need to make sure that they don't organize themselves once more, and gain even more power. We still have to make sure that the Tainted Elder is alright, and someone needs to go to the Lycans and see why they didn't show up to the docks that night when we were promised support." Though she was frustrated, Kerrigan spoke in a rather calm voice, taking a few steps forwards so she was standing next to Tokeru. She could feel his anger rising, and if he was going to lash out, she would be the first one to put him down.
Her eyes scanned across the hunters that were in the room, who were all but two new to Haven. Even with all of them, she was not sure that they would be able to take much of anything.
"I propose 3 teams, each lead by a senior hunter. One team tries to track down Krii while the other two teams pay a visit to the other two races. When the two teams are finished the Krii team should have some idea as to his whereabouts and then the three teams can make a joint assault on the persons responsible." Kerrigan knew that she might be overstepping her bounds, but she was more of a New York Hunter than Tokeru, and she would be heard, even if it meant taking some form of control over the meeting that Tokeru was trying to organize. She really felt like she was making some sort of compromise with him, which was something she was not used to doing. she could go back to hating Tokeru when she had her fiancee back.

Tokeru nodded, "Good idea Kerrigan, and as to the vampire elders. I have it on good authority that all of them have reverted to normal, and are once again being harmed by sunlight. They have reverted to their old ways, and have become more cunning than before.
Instead of one team going to the vampires, they should try to find other hunters instead, try to find those that we've lost since that event, and recruit more."
He found it harder and harder to keep himself in check, and knew he needed to end it. "I don't like it either Kerrigan, but we need to do this. Any other ideas? Quickly now."
