Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gabriel walked into the Cathedral rather rudely making himself known. The nuns looked at him and hurried about their business and the priest walked into the middle of the ailse to great him. Glasses covered his eyes as he strutted up the way coming to just feet from the priest. The Priest crossed himself and held on dearly to a rosary ready to defend himself or try to with the holy object.

"Everynight I see your kind walking the street.....creatures of the devil, the damned. You blasphemy just by thinking of coming into this holy sanctuary, you of all people....Gabriel."

Smiling he walked to just a foot away from the priest and patted the middle aged man on the cheek. It seemed his legacy was still known, Gabriel the Damned, Gabriel the Renouncer, Gabriel Negru.

"Father I am flattered you have heard of me. Fear me not I am not hear to burn your church to the ground or kill you. I was sent to America by a friend a common benifactor. The Elder."

The Priest rubbed a ring on his finger at the mentioning of the name, the ring was gold and had a dragon engraved on it. The Elder was the rival of The Master like Yin and Yang good and evil, both of them vampires one malicious the other fatherly. The Elder was a creature from a time before civilization when the peoples of the world traveled in nomadic groupings. One of the first. The Master someone who works behind the shadows is just as old and probably the most powerful Psychic vampire in the world choosing to speak to his children all over the world using his mind. Just a small bit of background info. Gabriel worked for neither but owed a favor to The Elder whom had come to New York before.

"So be it."

Gabriel walked passed the Priest and through a door that lead eventually to catacombs. The catacombs were built the same time as the church and had no real significant value, no mystery. Looking around he removed his glasses and looked at the few people that were buried here mostly passed Priests and members of the Church.

There at the back of the catacombs he saw the grave he was looking for and quickly made for it. He did not have to worry about the priest calling the priest they would think him crazy. Sliding the lid open he looked around and saw it on the finger of the skeleton a gold ring with a bat insignia with ruby eyes. Sliding it on his finger he turned and walked out of the catacombs and quickly left the church without saying another word to the Priest.

"help me father for i have sinned" she prays to herself and stands with a hard look in her eye. lighting a candle for her prayer she turns and leaves.

"there we go" shinzo discards the rifle (exit to central park)

Wanders in...past the pews... careful not to touch anything. Lights a candle among hundreds on the table.

"Hey Esmee." She whispers.

She closes her eyes slowly careful not to fall asleep.

"I'm in New York, just like Madame Gazelda told me. No one's come out of the woodwork so to speak to say hi."

She shifted a bit, her stomac still grumbling. She was glad no one was in here, they'd kick her out for the smell alone.

"I need a shower," SHe snickered, "and a bite to eat but i'm alive."

Her legs began to shake.

"Sometimes I wonder if this is what I really want. You know it's been ages since i've communicated without my fist."

She snickered again.

"And I dont know if I want to hang around anymore. I miss you Esmee, alot. Some days I wonder why I could'nt just die with you." She felt her knees knocking...

"I mean, who the heck am I to still be here you know. Nothings felt right since you were gone...and the Madame said for me to come here...to this loud destructive place."

She stood straight, regaining control of her legs.

"I can still hear your laughter. It's what keeps me going."

She opened her eyes and turned around...ready to keep walking. Keep walking all damn night if she had to just to find one...one....darn Lycan..ONe...

"For now." SHe added as her legs fought to move forward and back out into the bitter cold.

A small black shadowy cat slinkedd siletnly around the benches.

with a wide grin, Loupe strides into the church, quietly admiring the incredible architecture.

Rowaneath snapped out of her trance and got up she then ran from the cathedral.
