In an alternate universe to our own a small group of 'beings' (vampires/werewolves/inncubus/gorgons/etc) live with the humans, using a human disguise. A small group of these beings know of each other and what they are and regularly meet up to catch up with news from the 'other world', The place they originated from.
These beings were chosen to infiltrate the human world to keep an eye on the humans. These range from the just matured, eager to find out about the humans to the older, wiser beings just wanting to make sure the humans don't get too nosey about their world.
Some human follow the group to their meeting spot and overhear them, and watch them transform into their original forms finding out about what they truly are. One of these humans is a photographer, who manages to take some photo's of the group in their true forms before being spotted.
There has been a group of humans sent to catch and/or kill the creatures who can now distinguish the creatures in human disguises from real humans usng a special set of googles.Now that they have been found out the group tries to get back to the 'otherworld' only to find the news spreads fast and that it's been sealed. Now the group must try to find somewhere else that's safe and attempt to get back to where they come from.

Charlie sprinted as fast as his legs would carry him. He could hear them behind him, yelling. He didn't understand why they were chasing him, he hadn't done anything wrong. Nevertheless he wasn't going to stop and continued running down the dark back alleys, skidding to a stop when he reached a dead end. Cursing, he turned around to find three humans facing him, those silly goggles they wore fasened to their faces. They all carried guns and looked quite frightening. The moonlight shone down through the dingy darkness of the alleyway and Charlie bit his lip. He could transform, but what good would that do? Only attract the attention of more of these foul-smelling humans, and that was something he definatly didn't want.
"Haha, lookie what we got! One of those beasties. So what are ya kid? Werewolf? Vampire? "
The taller of the three shouted at him. Charlie flinched slightly.
"Nah...he looks like a chicken!"
They burst into laughter and Charlie saw this as he way out. He scanned the area and spotted a section of the wall next to him had broken slightly, bits of it had crumbled onto the path. The red-head jumped up as high as he could, grabbing the edge, and attempted to pull himself up. He scrabbled against the wall and was nearly up when he felt something wrap around his ankle. He let out a gasp when he was dragged back down, landing in a heap on the floor.

Zuzen had been watching the events unfolding before him for a while now, his coat and the feathers on his wings being swept lightly in the wind. He could not step in as the balance of justice had not been altered yet, but the sight still made him feel uncomfortable; afterall, the vampire was from the same universe as himself. For a while the strange, winged being continued to watch as the vampire tried to leap away from the humans, only to get dragged back down. There was a small, yet unmistakable 'crack' & the tattoo of the scales on Zuzen's arm tilted slightly - that was enough. The creature had done nothing to harm or anger the humans it seemed, they were simply chasing him for the sake of it & they had hurt him.
Spreading his massive wings, Zuzen swooped off the building he had been stood on & landed in the alley with the humans & vampire. He didn't speak, nor did he have his sword but he was still an intimidating figure.

"You see, to be a master of disguise like me, you need to be constantly changing your image, for example my dear, today I will wear a hat, tomorrow, who knows?"
The ancient man paced in his bedchamber, buttoning his shirt up as he walked around the edges of the large bed.
"Maybe I'll wear glasses... Hmm..."
He stopped as he reached the bedside table, where he picked up a sock that was perched atop a lampshade.
"However, I don't even show up in those ridiculous goggles, so they won't even look twice... I'll have to find a way to disable or scramble them for the others though... I'll look into it more tomorrow."
He checked the time on his old pocket watch, tapping the glass face slightly before closing it and returning it to his pocket.
"We're expecting guests tonight... and the trouble associated with said guests too... You'd best get dressed soon too, I'll be out front"

▌░▐░▌░▐░▌░▐Artemis 'Jewel' Lorcum▌░▐░▌░▐░▌░▐ You have to have some əηəЃģŷ..."Ouch!!"
"You deserved that!"
"For what? Oh come on dear, don't be so ridiculous, come back and sit with me,"
"Ha! No chance!"
Artemis scowled as he rubbed as his now rather inflamed cheek. The woman he had just made a move on had a rather sharp slap. Artemis' silver hair bristled as he stepped outside of the bar, and his blindfold flapped in the very light breeze. The sound and scent of another of his kind reached his senses, sending him on full alert as he realised that there was clearly more than one Being.
Artemis huffed and turned to his right - a ragged brick wall provided perfect footholds as he felt his way up the building. Once at the top, the blind fallen angel listened to what was happening, the sound, scents and heat heled to provide a pristinely clear picture of the situation. There was a vampire...and something rather different too. Artemis glanced behind him as he heard footsteps...or rather just twisted his head in that direction...and realised that it was merely the sound of someone in the other alley. The male lifted his head and saw another roof on the opposite side of the alley that the vampire and bullies were in. Artemis leapt over to it, spinning as he did to have his hands clutching the very edge of the roof. A low human growl rumled in his throat...only to be stopped short by the pitter patter of paws, and a bright orange creature with a pointed face and whiskers shoved over a dustbin in that very alley and scampered past the cloaked and feathered man.
Against the ěŋęмў... OutOfCookies; Tada! Also, he is disguised at the moment biggrin

(Lilith's gunna appear in this RP every now & again it seems, after this post I'll have both Zuzen/Joel & Lilith in the same post, but just for now...)
For a while Lilith watched as Alek paced his bedchamber, stretching one of her legs slightly where she lay. She brushed a bit of hair behind one ear & smiled at him,
"I wonder if perhaps I should be a bit more careful with my visits? I mean, how upset would you be if I were to be caught by those foul humans?"
Swinging her legs over the side of the bed, the succubus pushed herself to her feet before beginning to find the random pieces of her clothing strewn around the room. She reflected on what had just occured with a grin on her face.
"Also dear, I think you need to rethink your idea of a disguise."

Isaura hid in the shadows as she walked down the street, she didn't feel like getting 'attacked' by humans today. She stopped in her tracks and lifted her head slightly, the scent of humans and a vampire reaching her there was also something else but she couldn't place what it was other then it being male.
The centaur turned to face the direction of the scent and dashed to its source. She may as well see if she can help, it would be cruel to leave one from the same universe as her to get hurt, or worse.

Charlie rolled onto his side after he had hit the ground and saw a creature with massive wings had landed in the alley. The creature didn't speak and the humans glanced at each other.
"What's goin' on? What is that?"
One man raised his gun at Zuzen, a cocky smile plastered on his face.
"Well whatever it is, it's gonna die soon anyway. Grab the kid"
Charlie felt hands grabbing hold of his arms and dragging him up onto his feet. He squirmed and tried to break free of their grasp but they were a lot stronger than he was. He wished he had never gone out tonight.
"Got 'im, Harry, Sure you won't need any- ow what the ********?!"
As the human moved his hands to get a better grip on the struggling vampire, he'd gotten bitten, fangs sinking into his flesh.
"Jesus Christ! You little ********!"
The human smacked Charlie off him, cradling his bleeding arm.

"Ah, but they'll expect a good disguise! I always thought that the most effective disguises are the simplest ones... They'll realize who you are moments after they pass you, but you've either disappeared or stabbed them before they turn to get a second look."
The ancient man grinned as he tried on various different hats from a large wooden wardrobe.
"You and I both know you're more than capable of defending yourself from a couple of humans, but you're probably right... We'll move again after this meeting... I'm thinking somewhere sunny..."
He chose a large black hat, which drooped towards it's edges and was decorated with a large white feather.
"This."
He turned to Lilith, pointing to the hat before he opened the door and stepped through it.
"Head down whenever... And wear a hat."

With his hood drawn up & over his head, it was impossible to see Zuzen's face except for a bit of his chin & his mouth when he lifted his head a little. It seemed he was still able to see perfectly, however, because he stated,
"I wouldn't do to that if I were you, I'm not able to attack you at the moment, but you might change that."
to the man who had raised his gun. His voice was deep & commanding yet totally deadpan, as though he had emotionally removed himself from the situation. He was aware of what had happened involving the vampire &, since he had bitten the human, the scales on Zuzen's arm returned to their original position. Despite this, he didn't move, since he might be able to intervene properly if the man tried to shoot him.
Once Alek had left the room, Lilith began getting herself dressed. She felt very refreshed & her skin seemed to almost glow, if possible she looked even more beautiful than usual; she was so glad that her lover didn't die like the others. When she'd managed to make herself look presentable - she was wearing a long firey orange dress today which flowed down to her ankles & showed off her rather curvaceous figure. Just as she was about to leave the room she paused & looked towards the wardrobe where Alek had taken his hat from. She strode over, her high-heeled shoes making a 'clicking' sound as she walked, before opening the cupboard. After rummaging around for a while she eventually chose a large-rimmed hat with what appeared to be peacock feathers on one side.
With her face half-hidden by the shadow of her hat the succubus left the room, wondering what kind of things might be in store tonight.

As Isaura neared the vampire, humans and... other, she debated on whether she should remove her illusion. Just a few steps away she decided that it would be best to observe the situation first and slowed to a walk before reaching the mouth of the alley.

▌░▐░▌░▐░▌░▐Artemis 'Jewel' Lorcum▌░▐░▌░▐░▌░▐ You have to have some əηəЃģŷ...Artemis scowled at the fox, hearing the soft rustle of fur it's fluffy tail flick off and run in front of a couple adorned in feathered hats. Art could sense a woman, and hear the gentle flow of material over her skin, the click of her heels and the soft mumblings of her breath. Unfortunately, that male that was near her was most likely her partner, so Artemis let this beautiful flower leave.
Art flicked his head back to the group below him, now dropping the rather mundane human illusion. The creature stood tall, and outstretched his arms to reveal rows of shimmering snowy feathers draping from his bones. Two feathered ears now sat either side of his head, and his silvery hair now had blueish streaks. His deep blue jacket was open at the front, revealing his chiselled features and perfectly defined muscles, whilst the blade chain hung from his belt, it's head swaying as he perched. His hands were clawed, and his feet were contorted into birdlike ones - a result of his dismissal from his homeland.The fallen angel hung his head back as he let the breeze ruffle his feathers.
Ears back, Art leapt from the roof. He freefell down the alley, landed on a male at the back of the group, pinning him and knocking out his wind, and then soared back up to hide away under the rooftops. Against the ěŋęмў... OutOfCookies;

Aleksander stood downstairs in the small shop that he'd 'acquired' from a recently deceased 'friend' of his.
The shop used to be a cover for a shady business, namely one of the Angelus corporation's drop-off and collection points for low-risk subjects.
Now however, it was used as a meeting place for various otherworldly beings, under the protection of Aleksander Angelus himself.
The ancient man leant against the counter, behind which the meeting room was hidden.
"Oh, my crossbow is on the landing Lil, can you bring it down please?"

Charlie wobbled to his feet. He didn't like this one bit and the strange...thing...scared him as well. Was it a friend or foe?
"Try any of that bitin' crap again an' I'll shoot a hole in your head, kid."
The other human hissed from behind him, and the vampire felt a gun push aginst his head. Sure he was technically undead, but that didn't mean he couldn't die. Charlie gulped and tried to stand as still as possible. Could he turn into a bat faster than one of these morons fires his gun?
Meanwhile Harry, the human that was threatening Zuzen, smirked.
"You think you're all big an' scary don't ya? Well let's jus' see how big an' scary you are when you're full of lead, eh?"
With a manic smile replacing his cocky one, Harry opened fire on Zuzen.

When the first shot was fired, Zuzen didn't move at all. The bullet embedded itself in his shoulder, but even then he didn't flinch or make a sound - until the scales symbol moved again.
"I warned you."
With that simple statement, the angelic, cloaked creature suddenly surged forwards with his wings fully stretched (which was rather impressive indeed). In one of his hands was a huge sword, its hilt covered with intricate designs. While other shots had been fired by the human, it was unclear as to whether or not they hit the winged being. Upon reaching the human he brought his sword up, moving in such a way that his face was visible under the hood for a moment; this revealed & heavily scarred face & searing, white/silver eyes. The man's gun shattered & a cut appeared on his shoulder, the exact same height & on the same side as the bullet would Zuzen had.
From where she was stood, Lilith spotted the crossbow immediately & lifted it easily with one hand. She then made her way slowly down the stairs to join Alek, her dress flowing round her legs as she did so. When she got to the bottom she approached the ancient man before placing the weapon on the counter next to him. Bringing one of her hands up to her head she flicked one of the feathers on her hat,
"Well, what do you think?"
