((Ok, i'm adressing Bridget then SHingo))
Tokeru sent Savage off to recon, and gather the rest of the hunters, also his shadow stalkers. The great cat went off without a single complain, if a cat could make a complaint that was, which isn't to say they can't, just that they can't speak. He looked at Bridget, then back at the burning remains of their once home. "No problem Bridget, you helped me once, i always pay back my debts. If you need a place to stay, the chapterhouse is more than large enough to accomodate you." He took a deep breath, and smelled smoke, but more than anything, he smelt his grunge of almost a week of not bathing. Unconciously, he moved himself upwind of them. "I don't mean to impose, but what the hell happened? "
He looked to Shingo as the Hunter approached. "Alright, well once we get out of here, i'll give you an interview, to see if you're worthy."

Naota segara Simon had gotten up, relieved he had saved Edith from death, or whatever. But then, she went berserk. Killing a bunch of dudes. Had this been a movie; Simon would've said "Badass!," but since it wasn't he substituted with, "Aww ******** she finally stop, she could see that Simon had taken off his sunglasses, and was rubbing his eyes. Once done, he put his shades back on. "You haven't been drinking blood, have you?" Her dark side was eerily stroking her fifth victim when Edith’s control came back to her. When she awoke from her momentary trance she did not remember a thing. However, upon hearing Simon’s question, seeing all the limbs littered throughout the street, and looked down at the dead body that had been sucked dry and she was still stroking, she knew all too well what she had done. “Oh my ******** God…” was the only sentence she quietly breathed out in her state of shock.
Abruptly, as though it were a delayed reaction, she noticed the dead body she was subconsciously stroking and jumped from her spot, right into Simon. There was terror in her eyes, sheer panic and they glowed more brightly and beautifully than they had been mere moments ago… When she contacted Simon she literally belly flopped to the ground as though she had bumped into an explosive object.
Though as she was on the ground, she laid there in complete and utter shock. She stared at the ground, she no longer felt her pain but she was getting the mental flashback from her dark side of what all those men had last thought before they had been butchered at her hands. The screams she heard were excruciating, terrifying, blood curdling… Most of the men’s last thoughts had been .:DEAR GOD SAVE ME FROM THIS MONSTER!!:.
Randomly, she sat up, her eyes wide from the flashback she had accidentally triggered through her untamed enhanced mental abilities. “Dear God,” she quietly repeated as she curled up into a ball, knees hugged tightly to her chest as she rocked back and fourth, “save me from this monster…” Tears then filled her eyes as the shock left her and the realization of what she had just done sunk in… She had lost control, she had lost herself…
Simon’s question went unanswered as she had forgotten it thanks to her own shock and realization. “What if…” she whimpered aloud so Simon was able to hear though she never looked at him as she did so and she was still in a state of shock, “what if those people had not been there… I would have killed you… I would have killed you all…” Whether it was to herself or to Simon was not exactly clear as she was in a trace-like state and never looked over at him.
Then, finally, the full blow of the realization hit and it had Edith in tears. Her tears were a crimson red as she no longer possessed true tears so her body was forced to compensate with blood. The crimson liquid was like a cataract as it flowed down her cheek, appearing quite clearly against the paleness of her skin. There was nothing she could do but sob and whimper, her thoughts were not clear, they were clouded, and the vampiress was experiencing yet another breakdown which was hardly like her usual carefree and aloof attitude.

Bridget looked at Tokeru and said "Looks like someone tried to get some payback and hired some Mercs to do the job." "Believe it or not I've made quite a few enemies over the years; most of which are now deceased... hazard of the profession."
"Ah I hear our ride coming now"....Tokeru saw a helicopter coming in but with hardly any sound; it was on whisper mode. The chopper;was all black and carried no ID numbers, landed nearby in the vacant lot and several people got out and ran over to where Bridget and Sanchez paying little notice of Tokeru and the other hunters. "They'll take Sanchez and me to a place were we can get patched up... when we're better I just might take you up on your offer to stay at the chapterhouse."
The people got Sanchez and Bridget on lift/carry litters and started to move them to the helicopter... Bridget said "Again thank you and yours and the other hunters that came; give them my thanks." Bridget and Sanchez were placed into the chopper and it lifted off and flew into the night.

Tokeru waved as Bridget left. He grinned as she left. "Score one more for the Shadow Stalkers. C'mon Shingo. Lets go find the others. SAVAGE"
As he yelled, he heard the roar of his tiger and he ran off in that direction.
As Tokeru approached, he began to see more and more blood, untill he saw the corpses, with Edith among them. Instantly, he flashed back to when he was possessed by Baal. He saw Edith sobbing on the ground, her face glistening in the moonlight. Instantly, he was struck by an odd feeling Sympathy? Am i experiencing sympathy? What the ********? This is new, i've never felt sorry for anyone or anything before.
He gingerly approached her, and sat down beside her, and on an impulse, hugged her. "There there? I'm sorry, i really have no idea what to do when people cry. Umm, you want some cake?"

Edith normally would have been weirded out by someone she had just met coming up to her and randomly hugging her but considering that she was crying and that she was upset she appreciated it. Her headache was massive, yet when she heard what Tokeru had said it put a smile on her face as well as confused her since she was unsure if he was joking or being serious.
Cake? Is this guy serious...? Actually... cake does sound good...
The crimson tears continued to flow down her fare cheeks like like a cataract. "Cake huh?" she managed to say through all her pain, "cake's good, I'll have to take you up on that sometime." She seemed to recover quickly though her happiness was a complete facade, drama being one of her specialties. Though it hurt like hell when Tokeru had hugged her due to her burns and her mangled back, it hurt much less than it would have a mere minute ago since the blood she had drank was hastening her healing process though it would not completely heal her for a while due to her inexperience.

Tokeru let her go, and stood up. He held out his hand to help her to her feet. That's odd. Interesting, so is this what it's like to be human? Is this what it's like to care about someone?
"Come on, lets get you healed up, then we can go for cake. My sister will be able to do wonders for those burns and cuts. Which reminds me, i need to stop letting people hit me. Even though it heals, it still hurts like hell."
Maan, i really want cake now. I swear i'm high or something, why else would i have the urge to have cake. Then again, cake is good tasting and good for you.

Sighing quietly he followed Tokeru-san to the place where he was beckoned releasing the hold on his gun and walking along his wake. Completely ignoring the helicopter. Ignoring everything and just doing what he was told. Feet padding against hard cement he almost felt bored then he saw the scene. It was nightmarish, even at best. Although he had some scenes like this before he never did like it. Horror etched into the victims and blood splattered everywhere with a poor girl sobbing in the middle of it all.
"newly turned...", he guessed under his breath as so that she would not hear.
Then as he inspected her closer he noticed....Bloody tears?! How odd he had never seen a vampire cry....but he hadn't guessed this is what would happen when they did. Really odd....then something odder Tokeru comes out of nowhere hugs her and suggests cake?! Things just get odder....guess a shadow stalker had to get used to these things if he wanted in.
This was getting all to crazy...."Teh ********" was all he could think as she actually seemed to get better from the mention of cake....sighing he pulled out a small metal container produced from a pocket within his red cape as he produced a straw from another. Unscrewing the top he slipped the straw in draining the insides of the container. What was inside? Milk....why milk? Well....calcium and stuff you know....it's not like he's cat like or anything...>.> Letting the P-90 swing at his side he stood to one side smiling as he sipped on his milk eye closed in the joy of having the cool beverage run down his throat.
"What a way to introduce yourself, kyu", he said quietly as he squatted down at the nearby sidewalk and sat down on the edge legs extended fully...
"Shingo I hate to interrupt, but should I get my RX-8 and get us out of here or what?", he asked quietly as he reached into his pocket and produced a key as well as a remote for a slave system linked into his car.

Hokaru Moneru Tokeru let her go, and stood up. He held out his hand to help her to her feet. That's odd. Interesting, so is this what it's like to be human? Is this what it's like to care about someone?"Come on, lets get you healed up, then we can go for cake. My sister will be able to do wonders for those burns and cuts. Which reminds me, i need to stop letting people hit me. Even though it heals, it still hurts like hell." Maan, i really want cake now. I swear i'm high or something, why else would i have the urge to have cake. Then again, cake is good tasting and good for you.Edith, for the most random yet logical reason (though not to her due to ignorance) heard Tokeru's voice asking if what he was feeling was what it had been like to be human. The psychic vampiress was completely ignorant of her newborn mental powers slowly developing. She did not know that she possessed such mental abilities and she was incapable of distinguishing that she was hearing Tokeru's thoughts projected to her own. This lead her to believe that he had been speaking to her, when in fact, her mind had hacked his.
"You," she said asking Tokeru out of curiousity, unaware that she his accidentally read his thoughts, "do not know what it was like to be human? Weren't you ever human? Have you not ever cared for something or someone before?" She was not aware that Tokeru's question had been about her but she was aware that he had asked it even if it had been to himself and it made her wonder what he had meant. Did it mean that he was born an angel or whatever he was, or did it mean that he had died, came back, and forgotten? The second possibility frightened her because she too had died and she too may forget what it was like to care, to laugh, to feel free, to love...

Tokeu was shocked that Edith had heard him, but it didn't faze him, he had seen stranger things.
"I supposed at one point and time I was a human, though I can't remember it. The only thing i could remember was anger, and revenge. My entire life my only purpose was to kill, either for Draegan, himself or the Shadow Stalkers. It's been the only thing i've been good at, and the only thing i know how to do, apart from build and invent things. It's always made me feel better for some reason, something that makes me feel like my past, though I don't know. I have died and returned from beyond too many times to count, and each time, I have lost a piece of myself. The last time though, i lost more than i could ever imagine, and yet gained a sister. "
He vaguely remembered something else about his past, something about his parent, but just like that it left as soon as it came, and he became sad. Sorrow became etched across his features, and he though to himself. I can't even remember my parents, or the last time I was happy, or sad for that matter. I've only been angry, like the angel of death i represent, my life has been killing. I've never had a friend, or a lover. But I have had enemies, more than I can count. They were my enemies, even if they didn't know it. Most of those I have killed had no Idea who I was, or what I was killing them for. And even now, i can't regret it. But then why do i feel sad about not remembering my parent, or my sister?
He shook his head and smiled again. "Anyway, those burns must hurt like hell. Lets go and get you healed up. Shingo, meet me at the chapterhouse, i have my own "Mode" of transportation. As you can see." He motioned to his black wings, outspread and still completly dirty. Man i need a shower, it's gonna take forever to get these wings back in order, all my feathers are out of place how the hell am i going to get them back in order in time for my meeting with Will?

Sighing quietly as he watched the wings unfold he finished the last of his beverage as he began to walk away by himself as he thought, "It's only a matter of time before the wheels begin to turn" with no particular tone in his mind. Walking down several blocks to where he parked his car it gave him time to reflect on his life. Who he was, was this worth it, well that general stuff. Kicking a pebble that just so happened to be in his way he went to his RX-8 Slammed the door and hit the gass and was off...((next post shadow stalker chapter house))

Simon didn't do crying. He didn't even know if he'd be able to comfort Edith. s**t, the only times he'd ever try to comfort someone is if they were either shot, stabbed, a combination of the two, or some other s**t Simon didn't really know yet. So, Simon backed away, pushing his prange tint sunglasses up his nose, and walked off to his cars. Knowing that they would be going off towards the Chapterhouse.
He drove off.

The vampiress, though upset with herself and what she had done because she had attempted to sidestep the inevitable, felt bad for the Shadow Stalker leader and put a hand on his shoulder for moral support. “That’s gotta ********,” she said to him softly, still unaware that she had read his mind. “I probably now have a list of countless vampiric ennemies, but hell, I suppose I had it coming to me. I am sorry for your losses though.” She was tough, she did not need someone to comfort her and she was rather awkward in situations where people cried as well so she would not expect Simon to comfort her.
Tokeru was correct, her burns did hurt like hell, but her head still managed to top her UV exposed skin. “Well,” she said looking at the shot up Lamborghini that she had stormed off with to help Bridget and Sanchez, “I don’t know how the heck I’m gonna get to base in that. But hell, I’m more concerned about what the hunters are gonna do to me if they find out I took off in one of their vehicles without permission and smashed it up…” Yes, the sight of the once recently modified Lamborghini was comical. Yet Edith did get the sense that it might come out of her paycheck… Not that she particularly cared at the moment.
She sighed impassively as she looked to the mangled bodies, all of which were in that state due to her. The vampiress did not receive any accidental thought projections from Tokeru’s mind this time though it was clearly etched upon his face that something was upsetting him. “s**t,” she said as she persisted in feigning that she was mentally stable and not going to burst out crying or screaming, “someone’s gotta get this cleaned up so I’m gonna get started before people see too much.” It was true; they could not just leave the bodies there and assume that people would not say something about them.
The vampiress proceeded to clean up after herself and approached the first of over twenty bodies of men and women that she had slain. This particular body was the body of a young woman around her age, maybe a year or so older. It hit Edith hard when she had to look at the terrified face that this young woman had last had on her face before she died. The terror would be etched into the woman’s face unless altered, but the image of each persons’ face would forever be etched into Eden’s conscience and memory…
She found that as she contacted each body she was given a flashback of their past lives and how she had murdered them. By the fourth person, she had seen too much of what she had ruined and it had only been three people that she had touched. All had belonged to a family that cared for them and supported them, all had someone that loved them, and all had possessed at least one child… “I’m,” she whispered, trembling, feeling quite nauseous, “a monster…” The huntress then bent over and wretched onto the sidewalk, not surprisingly, it was blood since that was all her system possessed as of present.
If they had persisted in attempting to kill her that would have been one thing, but the ones that had been shooting at her had been hit by Simon’s grenade… The people she had killed had been leaving the scene; they had not touched her or tried to gun her down. She had killed almost innocent people that had all had lives and children to return to… Now somewhere out in the world there were going to be at least five children asking where mommy or daddy was only to find that mommy or daddy were never returning home again…
