Welcome to Gaia! ::

Leon looked down at her. "Better." He leaned down. "Why are you working for Swank? That's not a path you want to follow, dig?"

Monster chuckled, cracking his neck to either side. "Oh, he's a lot luckier than you think." He moved, his foot sliding across the smooth roof to connect with Lennox's ankle with a crack. "He dies last." He moved to quickly catch the Scotsman's arms, forcing them behind his back. "Now, then, I think an apology is in order."

Lennox widened his eyes increduosly at Monster's request after he just broke his ankle. "Doona ye ken ye owe me an apology, lad? Ye broke me ankle and fingers, shoved yer hand through me leg, and then ripped my throat out, ye b*****d! I would rather die than apologize t' the likes o' ye," Lennox stated.

Ciara stared back up at him, not knowing what to think. "Did we ever what?" she asked, narrowing her eyes. She knew she has seen Leon before she came to the hotel. He looked so familiar when she saw him at first, so she assumed it was him that attacked her and her fiance. The only other vampire she came in contact with after the attack was Lennox. "Where do I ken ye from?" Ciara asked in a barely audible voice, searching Leon's gaze.

Ciara looked down where he was touching her. She turned her gaze back up to his face. "Aye, I do. How did ye ken tha'?" she asked quickly as she twisted away from his fingers.

Ciara's cheeks flamed and she looked away from him. "Were ye watchin' me or did I..." she trailed off, trying to remember when she met him before. She shook her head and stared back up at him. She didn't really want to know. She just tried to kill him. "Nevermind I dinna want t' ken. Ye ken, I think th' birthmark is on th' other side. Ye must be mistakin' me fer someone else," she muttered, almost unintelligible. She threw her body weight to the side and broke out of his gasp, rolling over onto her stomach. Ciara scrambled to get up, but her shins still ached like hell from Solomon, and she fell again onto her hands and knees. "Damn!" she murmured.

Monster smirked. "His name is Leon. Perhaps you'd like a more up-close and personal introduction." He suddenly moved to grasp the back of Lennox's collar, throwing him across the roof just as Solomon managed to break free of Gabrielle's grip.

"Le--" He was suddenly caught off balance by the flying Scotsman. As he stumbled back, the back of his knees suddenly knocked against Ciara. "Woah..." He took a step back....and suddenly heard a great rush of air

a crack

then nothing.

Leon froze, looking at the space that Solomon had just occupied. Making his way to the edge, he looked down before turning away. He didn't want to see the now bloody scene before him. He looked down to Ciara, growling as his hands curled into fists. "Still think he's a good person?" He whirled but Monster was long gone. Gripping Lennox by the shoulder, he hoisted him into the air, setting him on his feet before doing the same for Ciara, pinning them both back against a nearby wall, his gray eyes hard. "Now, you're both going to tell me what's been going on..." His voice was a nearly inhuman, more growl than his normally cultured speech. "Or you're going to severely regret it."

Leon nodded. "Was that so hard?" He set her gently on her feet while keeping Lennox pinned. "Though it doesn't explain why the two of you were fighting." He looked back to Ciara. "As I'm sure you've noticed, Swank isn't exactly the most loyal, so I doubt he was fighting for you. Chances are he manipulated you to get what he wanted, a good screw and a patsiy he could pin the blame on if you did manage to kill me."
