Ben made it into the bar, the atmosphere was too his likeing, the bar was a real wood chip bar, he pulled up a chair and ordered his pint of Guiness. The barman was a real irish man, which brought a bit of a home feeling to Ben. It had ben along time since Ben had been in England, and an even longer time since he had visited his uncle in ireland. He drank his pint and let the memories flood back.

((X.x well, that last return lasted real long...))
Willow had been walking through the streets of New York for quite a while now, being pushed with and against the crowd, searching for something of interest until she became aware of a blues tune filling her ears. She stopped, craning her neck to find where the sudden music had come from. Her eyes suddenly locked on a miniature wooden piano only about a yard in length. A male, middle-aged human sat on its small bench. If it wasn't for the sound that wailed through the air from his fingers, she would have laughed at the peculiar sight. On the top of the piano was a weighted down hat, filled with a few paper bills, and silver coins. The piano itself was located right in front of a closed shop, looking to be filled with antique odds and ends with dates ranging from the 1920's to the present. Hesitating, Willow moved closer so she could hear the music better. After a moment's hesitation after seeing the small crowd that had surrounded the piano player, Willow leaned against the window of a closed restaraunt right beside the antique shop. Her eyes shut as she let the music fill her senses. "He really is good..." she thought to herself.

((NPCing as Cookie))
Cookie had thought of it as a "fun" and rewarding idea to reunite the siblings, though he hoped it wouldn't distract them from the hunt. Will would abviously notice a new hunter, but would he recall his sister? He had left her and the rest of his family about seven years ago. Would his little sister be remembered to Will as a child, or would he recognize the resemblance and remember that seven years had passed for her too? Surely one of his hunters eventually would at least see the eyes.
Eden noticed how hard Cookie seemed to be concentrating on something else besides the road. She had faith in him, but she was still alittle nervous. Deciding to try and lighten the mood she asked him if he was a hunter.
Cookie laughed and said to her while watching the road, "No, I'm no hunter, just as boring old chef. I've also got some degrees in psychology, but I'm mostly a cook."
She knew it, Cookie didn't seem like the right sort of person to be a Hunter, that and he was alittle old for it. Then she interogated curiously, "Why did you take up cooking instead of psychology?"
Cookie smiled at her eagerness to know and answered, "It's just where life lead me, being a full-time psychologist may've been alittle too serious for my liking. I'm now a counselor at haven, so if you need anything don't hesitate Eden. I'm usually in the kitchen." Noticing the two Humvees, and Will's group of Hunters, he said to Eden, "You're here, now be careful and have fun. Don't take your job too seriously or else you'll just stress yourself out."
Eden smiled and nodded to show her thanks and appreciation. She stepped out of the car and into an alleyway, she saw lots of hunters- almost a dozen perhaps. She quickly turned around and waved to Cookie to say a silent goodbye as he was reversing gear and backing up. As he rolled out onto the street, he waved quickly and turned to go back to Haven.

Eden had been so preoccupied by talking to Cookie that she had completely forgotten about Midnight snuggled within her coat. She smiled and chuckled at the kitten, but was worried that she'd be scolded for bringing a kitten along on a hunt. The kitten started purring, and it got loud enough so that it escaped the coat and could be heard if close enough.
Eden stroked the kitten, then put it on her shoulder- the most sensible place she could think of. The kitten's body was barely as long her shoulder, but it's legs made it long enough. The tiny claws were clinging to the coat, and the kitten mewed in disapproval of her new resting place. Eden just smiled and quietly said to the kitten, "Mids, it's there or in my pocket, you choose." As though the kitten understood her, it clinged even harder to her coat now. She chuckled abit and remarked, "Yeah, that's what I thought, now please keep quiet. People already will probably find me strange for having a kitten on my shoulder, if they see me talking to it then they'll think I've lost my sanity." She chuckle quietly again, and ventured further into the alley.
She looked around at the scene, seeing a few trails of blood, lots of droplets, and a few smears as well. She thought to herself: This must have been the scene where this Jaffar was slaughtered... Poor guy, he must've been cornered and surrounded... Not much chance for escape that way... She also noticed that the walls of the buildings were chipped, it looked like some bullets had hit them, did the vampires have guns? Or did someone come to attempt a rescue? Either way he still died, from what Cookie had said at least.
Eden kneeled down, seeing some blood, and gently dipped her finger into it and rubbed it inbetween her fingers. It hadn't hardened yet, but it was starting to get more sticky and sappy-like, he must've died a few hours ago. She stood back up, and looked around alittle more, still hesitant of the other hunters who likely had much more experience than her. She spotted a fifteen-year-old girl, or at least she seemed around that age. Perhaps she had alittle more experience than her, but as for the other hunters, likely not.
Then she saw two other hunters, they appeared to be having a conversation, and Eden caught the word "dinner". Perhaps they were going to eat after their hunt. She decided to go ask them what was going on, so she approached them. Eden approached them boldly, not showing any fear, but she didn't look intimidating. She went up to the male who had just uttered dinner and asked, "Is this by any chance a person named Jaffar's deathscene?" She waited patiently, knowing that this guy would likely be alittle confused by her sudden appearance.

She could easily feel the girl's aura move to a higher peak, her own body shifting lower to the ground, using her bare feet to propel her forward faster. She let out a single whisper on the wind, her voice travelling to only Eihwa's ear.
"I seeee youuuuu......"
It was dark and mysterious and came from all directions. Her hope was to drive the girl insane, then kill her. She held in her breath, awaiting a short responce or prehaps even the smell of fear on the air. She stopped moving, her black body invisible in the dark, only the moonlight glinting off her clothes could be seen as she watched Eihwa's aura from her spot on the roof.

Ben finished and got up, he made his way out of the pub and into the alley way beside him. The person who had been following him, turned round the alley and walked down abit. Ben jumped out and forced the man against the wall.
"Who are you and what do you want?"
"I am flasmid, i am a vampire stalker and was sent to kill you"
With that the vampire broke Bens grip and pushed him back.

It was a sensory assault that Eihwa chose to return, and her eager legs spring themselves into action toward her intended prey. Dancing across the rooftops, her focus remains undaunted. ~

Coming into the busy streets of New York he looks to his right and sees the woman walking casually down the street. He followed casually as well just keeping far enough behind her not to let anyone know she was being followed. It was a somewhat clear night and perhaps if he was at home on a night like this he would have been able to see the stars but alas here the stars were covered by light. Light from the street lamps and other sources.
He did not have to follow long before the woman turned and cross the street into an apartment building. Within a second Jacques was coming out of an alley across the street and walking up the steps to the apartments just as the woman was shutting the door. He silently opened it and stepped in just in time to see the blonde take a left at the top of some stairs. Someone was mopping the hardwood floors and payed him little attention as he ascended the stairs and turned left.
The woman had already went in her room so he relied on her mind to find her. It was not hard she was troubled and still had thoughts of some people she had seen on the streets on her walk home. Coming to the door he heard bath water start running and smiled, this would keep her from hearing the door opening as he stepped in and closed it behind him. As he walked through the rooms toward the sound of running water he saw the woman standing in front of a mirror in her bra and bottoms. She was nearly perfect in her form so beautiful he thought. He was tempted to change her so that the beauty would be eternal but it could be a damnation to her as well.
She turned and did a double take when she saw Jacques standing there but it was to late to scream for Jacques had her in his control. She came to him easy enough and Jacques wrapped his arms around her embracing her softly. He danced with her for a few minutes to calm her heart beat as he clouded her mind with images of peaceful days and her favorite things in life.
When it was time to feast he trailed caressing kisses from her lips down her cheek and to her neck. Slowly he punctured her neck with his fangs and slipped them both into a bliss of the dark kiss. He still danced with her as he drank and she tightened her hold on him as he drank and sent ripples of extacy through her body touching every nerve. As he heart beat start to gradually slow he knew had had enough and released her from his bite. Nipping his own lip he let a little blood drip to the bite marks and healed them, he guided her to a chair and set her down. Turning he went into her bathroom and turned the running water off and shut the door behind him as he left.
She was half naked and might get cold so he picked her up gently in his arms and carried her to a bedroom her bedroom he assumed and layed her in the bed. Pulling the covers over her he turned and left through the same door as he had entered and went down the stairs and into the streets. She would not remember anything about this ordeal when she awoke except that she was suppose to take a bath. She might feel a little fatigued like she had done some jogging but that was it she would be fine.
Turning down Main Street Jacques licked the remaining blood from his lips and smiled as he was now full and abit .......high one could say.

((OOC: sorry, i ended up being away for the weekend. much fun ensued with that.))
The young hunter was startled by Reno's kiss, but she had a ready reply. "Some place that serves champagne." She may not look like it now in her short black skirt, tank top, and tall combat boots, but she was a refined woman that couldn't quite let go of all of her past.
"But for now, Reno, I think it's best we hunt." Already, she was excited; it had been several months since her last hunt, and she was eager for it to begin. Absentmindedly, Integra fingered her whip lovingly. It had served her quite well, old-fashioned though it was.

As Jacques walked down the street he had the odd feeling of being watched and something was wrong. For the first time in centuries it seemed something like fear could be coming into him, this was odd to him. He felt as if there was someone waiting at everyturn and he felt he was seeing things, what was this he wondered. Never had his psychic abilities detected something like this that had frightened him. He did not feel safe in the open streets like this and quickly he called for his limo but got nothing. It took him a few minutes but he vagualy remembered giving his driver the night off.
He started walking faster towards the Coven now and as he walked he speed walked and then it came sharply and quickly as he was turning down and alley. The pain shot through his leg like a white hot sword and his knees buckled, he went down on all fours and yelled into the night his pain.
"Arghhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
People heard his scream and were starting to try and see down the dark alley, he had to get away and get calm. His injury was intune with his emotions it seemed mostly fear. Looking around he jumped from the alley to a fire escape which he almost fell from but managed to get a good grasp on the rusty metal and pull himself up. Climbing the escape as fast as he could with the pain and a limp he made it to the roof and looked in the distance to the Coven.
Now panick was sinking in and he was hearing voices in his head as he ran franticly towards the rood of another building. Something was wrong with him his mind was out of wack and he was getting a stong warning of danger something coming to him coming to New York. He suddenly got flashes of creatures which hurt his mind more than the pain in his leg. Falling to his back again he held hid head and blood came from his ears and nose.
His powers were going hay wire and they were to strong for him, he was getting images just strong sudden flashes of them along with out of place sounds and voices. He let out a yelp and blood gurgled from his mouth as he rolledo n the roof of the building and sent a weak plea for help to any psychics of the city preferably vampires but he needed to be somewhere safe somewhere that his mind could be closed off.
His clairaudience, clairsentience, and clairvoyance were so far gone that he had no control over the rush of images, sounds, and events that flooded him or how much he let in. His eyes rolled back in his head as he started to seizure and his body tensed and shook violently.

*Rogue lunged at the Lycan starting to transform. A knife sliced into its shoulder as it continued to change....
The lycan threw her off and she landed on her back...a rare thing, but she hit hard nonetheless. She quickly jumped to her feet as she reached for one of her guns, turning to find the lycan lunging at her, knocking her down, and the gun out of her hands.
It clawed into her shoulder making a repeat of the wound she had given the lycan. Rogue roared somewhat then kicked the lycan off. Pulling out her last gun, she shot the lycan in the chest 3 times, then as it fell, she shot it in the head.
The body slowly turned back into a smaller human woman. She had come into Las Noches and cut up one of her guards a few nights before. Rogue picked up her other gun and put it away, then lit a cigarette and panned the street below.*

*Rogue had heard Jacques cry as she lit her cigarette....and as she looked down into the alley, she saw him...writhing in pain and sending out screams in all the minds around...
but she looked around...and saw no one....she leaped down into the alleyway and used whatever psychic power she had to contain his screams...*
"Jacques..."
*She dropped her cigarette and leaned in beside him..*

As he twisted in pain he managed to roll his eyes back enough to see who was there and he grabbed at her collar rather harshly in his pain. His mind felt like it was on fire as he layed there and fresh wave of tremors went through his body making his eyes roll back once again.
"Get me to the Coven!"
He spoke through bloody clenched teeth and then he was out like a light. Everything went black but in his unconcious mind he still got the images and the pain he got it all only he was unable to fight it again. He would need help he would need another psychic to go in and stop the flow if he was to regain conciousness. Where was Eihwa was she alright he was not receiving images of her but he could not help but wonder amongst all the pain of if all psychic vampires were suffering.
The darkness seemed to last a lifetime but infact it lasted only seconds before he was awake and thrashing about again. He had let go of Rogue and now he was weeping it hurt so much, watery blood tears feel down his face as he tried in vain to fight the assualt on his mind.
