The voices were growing louder. One in particular was whispering the dangers of this situation right now. And quite frankly, Jericho was growing even more paranoid as a result.
"Home. We need to go home. Finish this up. Now. Hurry up. We do not want to linger here," he urged as he was looking around even more for signs of danger. The dragon wished to be home right now. Home was calling to him. It was rather obvious too that he was incredibly anxious right now.
Questions were still being asked. But he wanted to leave at this instant.

Mot was so glad Mac was there. Mot was becoming even more spineless as Hel refused his help. He cared so much, but he was always rendered near useless when he knew he had to do something someone may not like right away. Like move an injured Valkyrie. Mac's words to Hel made the grim's heart nearly skip a beat. Love? Well.. maybe. He didn't have time to think about how deep his feelings for Hel went right now. "Right." Mot steeled his will, and leaned back down. "Sorry, Hel. This will hurt a lot." No choice left. The grim reaper hoisted Hel over his shoulder fireman style, and began making his way out of the house. No matter how much she yelled, whined kicked or hissed, he would get her out of that house.{{Exiting with Hel}}

He was acting up. Shehk frowned, part of the dragon's desperation being impressed upon her, glancing towards the door. The fact Jericho wasn't concerned about killing the human anymore was also a telling factor to the Pricolici. They needed to leave.
Now.
They were in the middle of questions, however, so that meant Shehk needed to find a way to get Jericho out of there. Some excuse. Something. Did she need to stay? She'd gotten the answers she needed at that time. Yet she didn't know if Jericho would be willing to go and leave the others there to continue their interrogation. Still, she looked down at her sleeve as it soaked up blood, frowning.
Would it be enough of an excuse?
She gripped her arm again - tightly - causing one of the punctures in her arm to start bleeding anew, the trail seeping down her forearm.
"Jericho." she held up her arm and gave him a questioning look - if she left to get it looked at, would he go with her? If that didn't work for him, she wouldn't go at all.

Now Lizzy too? Ugh. Seriously?
Her eyes swept across the room once more, and things were starting to spin…was there two or three Staceys over there? Her brows furrowed, and she turned back to look at Mac with a scowl. She wanted to tell him that he should take his own Jack damn advice, but no words came out and not that it mattered anyways, since Mot was going to move her. She leveled an alarmed look at the cowboil, and was about to try protesting again until he just outright picked her up and started to move. Hiss and whine and scowl the ghoul did from his shoulder, casting one last look about the room. At her peers, her feathers, her blood, and then at Stacey before it disappeared from sight.
((Exiting))

Bul chose to follow suit with Mot and Hel. He couldn't be in that room any longer, not with that hunter and not with the exhausting tension between him and them. "Right behind you guys-" Bul called behind the two, but kept a distance. He really wanted to go find Mei and hug her for all she was worth. ((Exiting RP BYE!))

Christof shifted, gripping his bag of 'toys' tightly. Interrogation time was coming to an end. He could feel it. Sure. most Halloween denizens like Mitsu did not want to harm humans... but certainly the wolf must wonder what they taste like?
It was in their blood. It was part of the Fear.
He wanted those parts before the wolves set in.
He watched Lizzy carefully, hovering close as the bone saw was back in hand.
It was like Giftmas.

Lizzy's Skelephone Should we kill the hunter, or let him off with some injuries? Type your name under where you stand. If you have no stand on the matter, pass the phone on. Yes Shun Amrita Jericho Mitsu Hel Aymet No Lizzy Christof - Leave him Mangled as example. MEMEMEMEMEMENOTKILLINGORMAININGORANYTHING No stand Xiu Bul Shehk Mot Vaith
"Get her treated, Mot," She muttered softly as she watched her big brother leave with Hel, followed shortly by Bul; they had no stand. Of course they wouldn't want to... Even she was...
"Xiu, Vaith, Shehk," She looked up from the screen, "I need you to go after Mot and Hel, make sure that they are alright." They shouldn't stay to watch someone get killed... Especially since they weren't for it.
Moving over to where Jericho and Shehk were, Lizzy looked at the dragon, putting her hand on his arm, "I need a favor from you. Grab Israfel and leave with him... None of us admitted to finding the pendent. Everyone heard my instructions. The only ones I suspect are Aymet and Israfel. Maybe Calder. Anyway, I need you to frisk him the moment you get out and see if he has the pendent."
She felt like a giant meanie face. She wanted to - needed to - cry. Later.
Shun, on the other hand, would be tapped on the arm and dragged a short distance away. Her voice was soft as she spoke, and shaking a little, almost like she couldn't believe that she was saying this, "Make his death quick. Aim for the heart... Ghosts and undeads don't have a beating heart. I imagine that for humans, it's a sign that they're alive. The b-body... Bring the body back with you when you leave. Take it to Christof's place, hide it there. I'll ask you about his last words, including any questions he might answer, later. I'm sorry, but... I can't stay for this."
Everyone who wanted the hunter dead - plus Christof, who wanted him mangled - as well as those who did not give an answer, would receive Lizzy's skelephone again. Only this time, there was a message on it.
She then walked over to Mac, and tugged on the sleeve of his shirt, looking up at him with a depressed expression. She said nothing, but raised her arms up at him; he should understand that she wanted to be carried... And she wanted to be held.Lizzy's Skelephone Stay if you want to see the hunter dead. Make sure that he's dead. However, do not take him apart. We need him whole for Riley and Malodore, just in case. Do not inflict pain on him unnecessarily... We can be better than them.

With his attention called to Shehk, Jericho looked down to see that she was bleeding. s**t! They really needed to get out of here then. And as if reading his mind, Lizzy had started to call for a wrap up more or less. Good, this meant they could leave. He could get Shehk out of here to get that wound taken care of. But first, he had some business to attend to. Glancing over at the Siren, he nodded before letting out a breath. "Go on ahead.. We'll be right there," he told the Pricolici before making his way to Israfel. "Come on birdbrain. Time to get out of here," he said while trying to grab him by the shoulders to usher him on out. ---- Brought up to be dragged a few feet away, Shun shifted uncomfortably as his body was pretty worn down from getting tossed around and from losing a decent amount of blood. Letting out a breath, he listened to Lizzy before nodding quietly. It seemed the vote was in then, granted he had no intentions of prolonging things if possible. Once her instructions were tucked away in his mind, he slowly made his way back to his previous position to kneel back down.

Xiu's eyes were distant as she tried to sort out her thoughts, trying to push aside the conflicting feelings that were churning to her mind. It wasn't until she suddenly heard Lizzy call her name did she name out of her stupor, looking up at the other ghoul with a slightly distracted expression. "What? I--oh." Oh, they were leaving? She glanced over her shoulder and spotted Hel and Mot's retreated forms, and then she turned back to nod at Lizzy.
"Y-yeah, okay." Yes, it'd be best if they got out of here. Just because she hadn't voted against killing the Hunter certainly didn't mean that she wanted it either, nevermind staying back to watch it happen. "...Thanks, Lizzy. I...I'll see you back at school."
She said nothing when she moved over to where Vaith was, too distracted with casting worried looks over at those who would be remaining behind a bit longer. Jack, let this be done quickly and let them return to the school safely. Sighing, Xiu turned her uncertain gaze up towards the noise reaper, the familiar smile absent from her lips. "L...let's go, okay? They're about to--we shouldn't--I...I don't want to watch this."
Pale-faced, she grabbed the boil's hand and marched towards the exit.
[Exiting!]

"Not all hunters are equal, you've experienced this." At her question, the hunter just gave the wolf girl a relaxed smile, dark eyes watching the shifting movements and attitudes of his captors. Something told him s**t was about to get real. Calder's litany of questions were met with a flat look and a simple, "The same way you do. I can't explain the technical specifics. And I don't know." He wasn't going to bother clarifying which answer belonged to which question.

Shehk looked to Lizzy when she told her to leave, frowning, but it seemed that she knew exactly why people were being herded out. Shehk had no stance on the matter of the hunter's death, but never the less it would be for the better she left.
Especially if she could get Jericho to come with her. Israfel too? Alright. She could handle that. Even if they'd get shipped all the way out of there. As it stood, her 'I care' was starting to deteriorate in the current situation. Never the less...
"Alright. I'll wait outside." she answered, nodding, before she passed Israfel a look and an awkward smile before she made her way over to the door to step out of the room.

Unlike Shehk, Invictus was quite firm in staying, despite having given no opinion either which way about the human's death or lack of. In fact, he almost seemed eerily calm, arms folded behind his back as he watched the herding of the children off into their own sandboxes.
Perhaps for the best. Those who could stomach this type of work were the kind he needed to observe for the time being as was.
If only to see what would happen with them later.

"Who would?" Vaith muttered, looking back at the students who voted yes. He would never have guessed some of them would vote that way but .. He hated turning a blind eye. Was this what being in seeds meant? To agree with the majority and turn a blind eye? If hw argued, he might as well put himself on the "no" side.
But he wasn't entirely for that side either.
As Vaith walked out with Xiu, he murmured aloud, cautiously. Conflicted. He tugged on Xiu's hand uncertainly. "Is this what seeds are for?"

Years spent playing Dungeons & Humans had done a surprisingly good job of preparing Aymet for the day he would finally, actually dispatch an enemy human. Somewhat of a sick fantasy, but he was still a teenage guy (permanently, given he'd already died as one) and one who had violent video games for breakfast instead of breakfast. The hunters had brought students into this, so they'd finish it. By finishing him. And this was just the start.
If only Merope and Cyrilla were here -- but... he hadn't seen either of them in some time.
Aymet could almost feel that memory of hunger burning within him again as they all began to gather round like vultures. Breaking rules always had a somewhat exhilarating, dangerous feeling. The message on the phone did make the dracolich pause uncertainly. But the hunter had already proven to them that mercy meant nothing. Even if they spared him, his kind would not stop. This was what needed to be done; they were taking matters into their own hands when no one else could be trusted, or counted on at the very least.
If you wanted a job done right...

"B..but..." Mitsu was about to protest at the insufficient answer when Shun was pulled away suddenly. The lycan looked up to see what was going on only to see people filing out.
Her eyes widened in alarm instinct telling her what was coming. Had she made the right decision? She really didn't feel so and she looked down at Stacey with a confused and panicked stare. That relaxed smile made her worry a hand hesitantly reaching out to touch the Hunter's trapped arm. Why she had felt compelled to she had no idea. Maybe in a way she was trying to comfort this poor creature or perhaps...she was trying to decide if it would be best to take the stupid Hunter out into the woods and ditch him where he would be safe. The others would be so mad at her and no doubt Shun would be very disappointed....but could she watch him die?
When Shun came back to sit beside her again Mitsu frozen, those crimson eyes as round as saucers. Could she live with a small betrayal and transform and drag the Hunter out? She would still have to be quick but it was possible if she wasn't gentle enough she could easily crush him in transfer. While these questions circled in her mind it might not have been clear what she was thinking exactly but it was clear that facade she had held until now was crumbling to nothing.
