Welcome to Gaia! ::

Leppi jumped to climb up a building. He figured, if he could get on top of the building, he could escape the gunshots. He quickly focused his lycan abilities, growing claws. He became slightly more hairy, and also grew fangs, but he hadn't begun to change shape yet. He scaled the building, hearing the bullets whiz by where he was once standing. He finally got to the top, and bathed in the moonlight. It was only a 3/4 moon, so he was safe from the lycan within. But there was enough moon and stars, and little neough cloud coverage that he could escape the shadows easily. He relaxed, letting his claws and fangs recede.

Kerrigan had made sure that Lydia, Will and Aurora were on the ambulance, riding back to Haven with her contact. She knew that he would take care of them, but now the real crisis began. Will would be taken care of at Haven, but she was going after Neko. Kerrigan was full of so many different emotions that she felt like she was going to burst. Anger at Neko and the Knights, Worry for Krii and Will, Sadness for Will, depression from her love being taken from her...she had no idea which way to turn. It would be complete overload for an individual who was perfectly healthy, but she had not slept in days, hadn't fed in a very long time, and was on the verge of a breakdown with Krii missing.

Ducking behind a tree, Kerrigan breathed hard, bending over double and holding her head in her hands for a moment. She had to get control of herself, get control of her emotions. Problem was, she was not sure if she wanted to cry, punch a wall, slam her head against a wall, etc. After a moment, Kerrigan's head tilted upwards towards the moonlight, a piercing scream emitting from her. Everything she was feeling was poured out into that scream, and as it died out suddenly, she did feel a little better about everything. At least she felt like she could focus for more than one second at a time. Her fangs elongated, her eyes fading to a deep black as she straightened up, focusing in on only one of those emotions: hate towards Neko.

She was about to head out towards Demonic Ties, when she heard the sounds of battle coming from across the park. Turning in that direction, she was going to make sure that none of the hunters were involved before she went on her way. As she neared the battle, she pulled one of her Desert Eagles from it's holster, holding it ready as she came upon the battle scene, skidding to a halt. Of course, they were almost all Hunters...ganged up on a vampire she had not seen before, but had obvious power. Part of her wanted to get involved, while the other part was telling her to get all the hunters back to Haven. No use in reporting anything about Will until there was something to report. At any rate, she would not be able to take on Neko by herself...Will could not even take her, and he was their leader.

By the time she had made up her mind, however, the vampire vanished, leaving the group of Hunters standing in the Park alone. Stepping forward, she looked between them, taking on an authoritative air once more.

"You guys alright," she asked, then noticing that one of them was a lycan. Immediately, she had her gun drawn on him, not sure if he was a hunter or not. There was no room for error in these times - after all, the one elder that they had always gotten along with may have killed their leader. No one could be trusted anymore.

"The Hunters are free to live, regardless of race. What about him," she said, motioning to the lycan in the group. She had to admit that she was a little ticked at the hunter for his even suggesting that she should shoot her own Hunters. Still, she had not been around Haven to meet the new recruits, and so she passed it off as ignorance. Her magnum remained on the lycan until she got a straight answer from someone, but by the time her attention had turned back to the lycan, he was gone. It was just as well. turning to the Hunters, she holstered her gun, placing one hand on her hips.

"You guys got names," she asked, tossing her long black curls over her shoulders.

((Just realized the exit posts. sorreh!))

Kerrigan listened to their names, taking in their faces as she looked at each one. As she was asked her name, she glanced at the building that one of them was standing on before looking at the man who asked her the question.

"I'm Kerrigan Taylor," she said simply, not moving to give a handshake or anything as she spoke. However, she did give them a small smile before her look changed to one as if asking them what they were doing out here.

Twi opened his eyes, coughing up water that had entered his lungs. Looking up, he saw Amnity looming over him angrily. Deactivating his floating devise, he sat up and gripped his head.

"Thanks Am....I owe you one..." Twi said nervously, hoping that she wasn't mad at him.

Kerrigan's attention immediately turned to Amnity and Twi coming back to the group. She gave Amnity a nod at her smile, tilting her head slightly as she looked at Twi. Taking her hair, she twisted it back into a messy bun, holding it in place with a ponytail hunter before establishing eye contact with Amnity once more. She had not gotten to know the girl that well since she had been here, but from what she saw the girl had a kind heart and had definite promise in the Hunters.

"Is he alright," she asked, moving closer to them as if she were going to check him out herself.

((Oops. I'll edit it then.))

Amnity stood up straight like a soldier in front of her commander. "He just fell into the river, he'll be f-" Suddenly, her ears seemed to perk up when she heard Mephlus' voice. Pure relief and joy entered her heart as she saw him jog up to her. She was speechless for a second, looking up at her boyfri-...Fiance. Collecting her thoughts, she replied to his question too. "I'm fine...Just had to get Twi out of the river.

Twi looked around. Everyone cared! How odd...
"I'm fine he hit me square in my bullet proof armor."
Twi looked down as pieces of his armor fell to the ground.
"This won't do me any good anymore."
He took of his armor, it made a loud a thud as it fell to the ground.
"I'll have to run around vulnerable for a while..." Twi said sighing, although he didn't mind that he was considerably more mobile.
"Where did that vampire go anyway?"
