Meredith had reached the park within a few minutes, her uncontrollable vampiric speed was absolutely awesome, a high if one could say that about running around at high speeds like an absolute maniac. Unfortunatel for Eden, her meditations had been correct in portraying a disturbance in the park and she was even more surprised and disappointed to see that two of her hunters were the ones fighting. Frustrated once again, Meredith rushed up to the two and placed herself right inbetween them, regardless of how stupid it was to throw oneself in front of a lycan and a crazy drunk Scottish man. She extended both her arms out, intending to hit each one in the chest to shove them back from eachother while dodging Adrian's stupid pike but getting knicked in her hip. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING!" she bellowed so that the entire park would have heard if the place had not been vacated. "You're both hunters! You're both on the same side! What the hell's up with all these f****** hunters lately!"

Mephlius saw the pike coming at him. He rolled to the side, pulling in his legs to avoid being hit by the spinning scythe. Once steady, he answered Edith, without breaking eye contact with Adrian. "Edith, he's under control of Alasdair."

"Ach, I amnae under control, I am willingly doing it." He kept looking at Mephlius, but spoke to Edith. "I wasnae being done any favours by you bastards, so I deicded to go to someone who could give me food, a home, shelter. You saw me at the Chapterhouse rubble, you saw the conditions I lived in, but you just left me." He narrowed his eyes, glancing at Edith. "Now I'm working for someone who cares about me enough to pull me off of the streets, give me a new life, and if tha' means I have to betray you ignorant bastards, so be it." He lunged at Mephlius again, swing the Pike to his side, aiming for Mephlius' torso.

Meredith went to grab Adrian's pike and when she got a grip on it, she attempted to tear it away from his grip entirely. "You're an idiot! You know what Alasdair's going to do for you once you've served your purpose? He's going to feed you to whatever vampire suboordinates he has since they're probably a hell of a lot stronger and more efficient. If you friggin' need a place to stay, why didn't you confront someone about it and ask them directly?! Are you stupid?!" She was obviously angry and she was now shielding Mephlius from the Scottish man who seemed to have very flawed logic. "You think he's going to keep and protect you forever? If you trust that scum more than me, go ahead, stay with him. When you're fed to his little vampire lackies, then it'll be too late for you and you'll wish you'd listened to me when I'd told you the exact thing that would happen. You're a puppet and once your strings break, you'll be cut loose and you'll be on the street or where ever you were again. ASK ME FOR HELP IF YOU NEED IT!! That and there's a cafeteria in haven and they have no issue giving you a free meal."

Mephlius moved to block the pike, but it never hit. Edith had blocked it. He was going to chip in on the conversations, but Edith was really saying it all. So he just relaxed a bit, ready to help if needed.

Adrian scowled, falling to his knees again. The Pain Killers had completely worn off, he started to feel extreme, unbearable pain. He gripped his stomach, howling out in agony. He managed to struggle to his feet just to argue his point. "Who the hell would'[ve gone outta there way to help a tramp like me!? Would they bjust say "Oh I say, Howdy Doody with bells on, why don't you come and stay with me and be fed in the golden Mead Halls of Thor?"" He said in his piffling attempts at an English accent, his Scottish accent breaking through quite frequently. "And those bloody Canteen workers didnae care about me, I asked for SOUP and they just said 'Piss off you Tramp'! I wasn't welcome in Haven, my supposed HOME!" He panted, falling to his knees again, a mixture of pain from the bullets, the kick, and hunger coursed through his stomach. "And it's better to be food than need food, and Alasdair wouldnae do that anyway! He does care about me! He's the one who gave me food, trust, and shelter! He didn't look down at me like a lunatic, he even gave me responsibility over his squad of little Vampies!" He got to his feet,k and whistled, one of his Squad Members rushed in with an assault rifle. "Now come with me, or be ripped to shreds."

"You drive a hard bargain. But I've got a better one. Why don't you wake up, smell the coffee, and realize that you are 'Expendable' to him. Realize that the only reason we haven't shot you by now is because we care about you. Come with us back to Haven. You can have my old spot in the barracks, even."

"Adrian, stop it!" Amnity called examining him for a second. "You're hurt damnit, you can't fight anymore." She looked at him, a mix of anger, concern, and sympathy. "Is this how you want it to be? Seriously? Please, just stop. You'll get yourself seriously injured..." Taking a deep breathe, she took a step forward to him. "We'll take you to the Infirmary and see if Gail can patch you up...And then maybe later we can finish the fight, but not now, not here."

"I would have gone out of my way to help you, you dumb a**! I don't know who you are in any way whatsoever other than the small conversation we had that I don't remember a single thing about since I was half asleep during the time!" She paused then continued on, calming herself down and trying to be reasonable. "Okay, look at it this way, no don't give me sympathy but listen and see if you can relate. I was on the streets when I was a teenager. I left my house, my mother and father, my brothers and sisters to find my one big brother who went missing. During that time, I quickly ran out of cash and ended up on the streets, literally fighting over food and fighting for my life. On the streets, guys don't care if you're a girl. People don't care about anything but themselves if they're starving, cold, and betrayed. You going to do that to us? People who are willing to help you? Who don't use you? You can make your choice, I'm not your mother but before you kill me at least tell me which person denied you soup and I'll kick their a** or at least get them out of a job."
As for the firing squad, it wasn't looking all that great, however, she had her bullet proof vest on though her arms were completely exposed as well as her legs and head. "If you're going to shoot someone, shoot me. Mephlius, get out of here while you still can, I'll cover your a**. So get running." She then turned to Adrian and stared him down, stared into his eyes from the depths of her own formerly hazel eyes that were now just black dilated pupils that engulfed her eyes entirely. "Your firing squad think they can keep up with me? I'm a vampire, just for the note so I can hella fast if it's needed." She turned into a blur and was beside the squad member then attempted to punch him in the throat and made to relieve him of his rifle. "I mean, I'm pretty fast."

"I'm not leaving unless I know Am's safe. Once I know that, I'm getting the hell out of here."

Adrian sighed, "The battle is over for now." He turned to the Firing Squad. "Piss off, Vampires, you're not needed." He got to his feet shakily, looking at Amnity and Edith, a faint smile on his face. "There are no worlds left to conquor..." He whispered, gesturing for some support, he was on the verge of falling again. He dropped his comm device onto the ground, stamping his foot onto it. He stood on it needle end, it went into his boot and stabbed his foot. "Son of a f***ing son of a b**** mongering whore!" He smiled sheepishly, looking at everyone. "Not the most dramatic of gestures I admit..." He muttered, still needing some support.

Amnity looked over at Eden in shock. Damn...Oh wow. She looked back at Mephlius, wondering if he was going to follow her order to leave. Quickly, she came to Adrian's side, bringing his arm over her shoulder. "...The battle isn't over yet, we still didn't finish our fight..." Amnity cracked a smile, trying to brighten the mood. "When you get better, we go back to the melee fight, alright?" She looked back over to Mephlius, motioning him to come and help.

Mephlius put Adrian's other arm over his shoulder, and helped Amnity support him. "I know the feeling. You plan one thing, and a whole 'nother happens." He smiled. He couldn't help but think of the night that he proposed. It seemed to last forever... until the peace was shattered by 5 gunshots from Alasdair. Even though it was of Alasdair, the memory made him smile. It was sheerly ironic.

"Wow..." Jack whispered to himself. It was almost like a soap opera. A prime time drama, actually. He removed his eyes from the binoculars and pocketed it in the inner-lining of his bomber jacket. The Hunter Psychologist sprinted over to his fellow hunters and pretended to be awfully late, "What happened here?"
