Welcome to Gaia! ::

Gaijin woke up not too long after the city had quieted, and after all what need did he have for the war? It was something stupid, and besides he had had to stay with Logan. He couldn't leave her just to go on patrol. Not until Mia had come. But now she was here, and Logan wouldn't be alone. He thought that he needed to go out into the city for his patrol now, though what good it would do who could tell? Gaijin stood up and went over to his desk, pulling his coat off the back and slipping it on. He looked towards the couch where Mia and Quinn have been snuggled and saw that Quinn was gone, but Mia was still there. He thought it odd for Quinn to just up and leave Mia here. Maybe he would go looking for him on his patrol through the city.
Gaijin shook Mia, telling her that he had to go out on patrol and that if Logan made any strange sounds to please check on her. Mia made a sound that he took for an ok before he went and placed his weapons in their appointed places on his outfit. He went out the door, locking it behind him as he left and went down the stairs. He opened the door to the outside and stepped out, pulling the door closed and locking it behind him. He let out his breath, looking up at the building. Some more it didn't look all that good, but he'd repaired the main areas that were used and it was livable again, having to replace the window AGAIN.
He turned then and began his walk down the street, though this time he decided to stop off in that garage and pick up his bike. It was on his way, and he hadn't ridden it in a while. Maybe it would make him feel better. to ride it again. Lately, he'd been too worried about Logan. One thing after another, it all seemed to come at him at once now-a-days. But it was worth it he suppossed. Logan was... so very important to him. But now she was hurt, lying there possibly even dying because he was too weak to protect her. Gaijins fist comes around and he slams it into a vending machine and cracking the screen. He let out his breath, frustrated. Gaijin turned the corner, walking into a parking garage and heading up 3 floors to Floor 4 where his bike awaited him. He swung his leg over, starting it up and backing up, turning and taking off down the floors. He comes to the entrance, looks around, and decides to head on the general path he was taking before zooming off that way.
He comes zooming down the street, looking each way to see if he can see anything of interest, before he sees something that stops his blood. His bike skids to a stop and he moves onto the sidewalk, turning off the bike as he gets off and runs over to where Quinn is apparently hanging. Quinn! Quinn damn it wake up! He can tell though, just by looking at him, that the man is dead. The color, the apparent effects of rigormortis... he's been gone for a while now. His eyes rove the alleyway, seeing blood pooled. He can't understand it, has no idea what in the hell to do. How could he go back and face Mia with the news that her love was gone? Damn you Quinn! I fall asleep for a couple hours and you go out and get yourself killed! Gaijin slumps down against the opposite wall, trying to think. What in the world happened here? Who could have done this to him? I know he was a new Lycan, but he wasn't that weak was he? Ugh! What do I do?!

Mia opened her eyes slowly, noticing that Quinn had left. She faintly remembered Gaijin leaving and asking her to watch over Logan. Slowly standing, she walked over to see that Logan was well. Something didn't seem right. She had this terrible gut feeling. She walked back over to the couch and sat back down, staring at the floor.

Gaijin let out his breath and stood, pushing against the alleyway and standing as he brushed himself off. Even if he was scared of how to break it to Mia, he had to tell her eventually. It would be better if she heard if from a sympathetic source than down the grapevine by someone who had noticed his body. Gaijin walks out of the alleyway to his bike, slinging his leg over it and starting it up. He pulled out into the street and turned the motorcycle to head back towards the apartment. He wasn't far, so it didn't take long. He pulled up in front of the building, and Mia would be able to hear him as he turned the bike off. He climbed off, going to the door and unlocking it. He opened it up and stepped in, closing it behind him and head upstairs. He reached the apartment door before hesitating and unlocking it, stepping in and closing this door as well. He saw that Mia was up, and he looked over towards Logan, who was still unconscious. I'm back...

Mia smelt Gaijin as he neared his apartment. She knew he'd been standing at the door before finally coming in. Her head turned slowly, looking up at him as he stepped in. "Logan hasn't moved, but there's something going on. I can smell it, fear or sadness, but something is wrong."

He had a relatively closeby apartment, and it was the most well positioned one at that. Skidding to a stop, he parked the bike and chained it to a post. Looking around, he hefted the backpack and walked up the stairs to the door.

Walking over, she stops next to the Vampire, rather curious. "What with?"

He took off the trench and took out a brush, putting it through his long hair. "Damn tangles...hat hair..." he said to himself, closing the door to the third floor apartment. Hanging the trench on a coat rack, he sighed and flattened out his shirt. The silk felt fairly smooth against his palm.

Going to a back room, he pressed on what looked to be a light switch next to the bar, switching the mirror into a weapons locker. He slid open the shields and appraised it.

Arceli walks along the street, she looks around and she can still smell vampires. Fledgelngs. She wondered how many had been destroyed recently, and how many there must be. mind you, NYC was a big place and the rats bred well enough. Vamps were higher on the food chain than rats. She isnt bothered though, as long as they stay away from her they can do what they want, Although a lot died on that roof that day... she finds the place she's looking for, the alleyway where she met Xan that time when she had bolts stuck in her. She walks a bit further on to where the fight had happened and the place still smelled of burned flesh. She sees a couple of mortals but they dont seem like normal mortals... they were the two one the motorbikes when she ran out of the building the other day. The look around and she ducks round the corner. They smeled like that vamp that always seemed to be after Xan. She hopes they didnt see her, especially if they still have guns. She loads some normal bullets into her guns, just in case. She starts to quietly creep back the way she came but she hears them getting up and running towards the alley she's in. She ducks behind a couple of trashcans and they run round the corner. She stands up and shoots one in the gut, then ducks again. She can feel her heart beating in her chest from excitement and fear. She jumps up again and gets the same guy in the chest then runs around the corner as one of the people shoots one of the trashcans, destroying the cheap aliminium. She waits for the guy to come round the corner and shoots him twice in the back.
