The Ravinhill City files: book one

[Britt Nightshade]

It was a hard thing to suggest but it was at least a good attempt to asked, if something wasn't said that was in mind it would never get an answer if it was for the sake of being some help.

"I understand that from seeing it first hand, as soon as Aaron had stepped even an inch on your line the instinct kicked in and you were furious. Most likely I will be trying this when you have to go out for the night and watch the city, I can try an attempt to get him and get what I need done and before you know it I'll let him go before you have a chance to notice anything out of the ordinary."

He had a point though that with this success of the anti venom being a positive creation there has to be a little more than a small vial to keep the production going, and Jeremy was in no mind to have to hunt his brother down again and again to retrieve a decent amount to commence a few test and have a good amount made for emergencies. when the answer was clear Jeremy nodded still a little quiet at what he had to figure out doing to get his brother to come to the manor and do what he needed some. However the part of getting Erik here wouldn't be so easy since of many factors to think about from the first thing of getting Erik isolated from anyone to making sure backup was around if something was going to happen if his brother decides to retailiate. They were some things to think about, but Jeremy could be clever if he had to when it came to getting Erik's attention. All he had to do was wait for the right time.

A little bit heard to put into thinking but it was Frank he was talking with, one that would almost fit the category as someone that would think the more creepy things were something to wonder about. Since he was just watching and observing giving another mouse from the cage, Jeremy thought nothing of it while he went back to his task at hand to feed himself, while Frank took a spot to observe the entire process from the lethal bite to the end result. It gave him something else to do to learn a little bit more about how Jeremy's instincts reacted without having to deal with the concequence of having to get strike at as long as he was at a good distance that would make Jeremy threatened enough to go into attack mode for being interrupted.

"I guess we all learn something different when we get the chance to watch and observe.....of course with permission and no surprises."

Frank continue to help his friend relax a little more, keeping in mind of everything he was saying even if it a little silent at first but with a meaning.
"Thats one thing your right about that what instincts you've been wired with will remain with you but what doesnt say they can be tamed to react in different ways. More in a sort of being set to kick in to specific times instead of all the time."

It was one thing that Frank had to think about especially with the odea that Toby had to do many changes to keep from beiming a pure bat than a hybrid, territory was the main example. True he would become a savage thing trying to keep his things his own from rivals, but learned how it worked for him to only react to enemy scents, while letting his own clan come and go into the lands as they please without having to worry about getting snarled at when the line has been crossed. If Jeremy could do the same with interacting with those that would be working with him the most, then the urge to strike at people would lessen more when the thought of someone being in the same room changes the threat meater to just a slight startle.

They knew right away that most likely Frank would be one to be able to come in close contact, snce he was able to give a feeder mouse to him without any hesitation. If there wasn;t any fear being sense the instinct would be less to mild.

"A little on the interesting side yeah thats a true statement, but the point is that even though your not a pet snake you still have the traits I could remember from her. You've been up all night on patrol and then come back to conduct a few test as well as add on to figuring out new things, a little bit too much if I say so myself. Take a moment to get your body resting and finally back in a good pattern, keep up the trips here and there then you wont be able to keep anything down nor be much of a help if you cant barely lift a thing."

Frank was getting a little worry about Jeremy since he almost had forgotten that he had just been out the entire night, as well came down to figure out a few things on the venom project that rest or sleep seemed to pass by him without a blink of an eye. Though figuring out things for the vision was a thing to try, his friend needed to take a little time away from the lab to rest up and get a little food in him to keep up. He took a few rags and cleaned up the small mess without much of a word or fuss.

"Its probably already close to the afternoon, take this time to get a little shut eye in before the rest come to wake up for the night time. The spectrum thing can wait for another time when you got a little rest and food. Probably will go up myself very soon since I'm feeling the wire starting to fade off myself. Take a break and get yourself a little on the better side without feeling sick to the point you can even keep the mice down.

Frank took a second glance only to meet eyes with Samantha, who was not so happy at the fact she was having to clean up after one that never was the best in the kitchen and probably poorly to clean what was done. He turned back around and follow Jeremy up the stairs in case he would lose his balance with how overwhelmed his body had been hit with.

"Well look at it this way, at least if it was a hunt its just an animal and not one of us that crossed the line." he said in a little humor knowing the kitchen was going to be a little bit to clean from the stain proned mess.
Frank managed to be a guide towards the hallway as they both reached for Jeremy's room, clicking the door open just enough for him to get in slowly but at least inside the room without tripping on something.

"I think a few hours of sleeping and a couple more feeder mice when you get the stomach to keep them in, then you should feel a little better. True conducting tests are a neat thing to do, but if it means of barely moving down to your knees its not worth the abuse on the body. Maybe come back down a little later to see if something is happening, unless something wakes you from your slumber, hopefully not a spray of water from something blowing up."

"I swaer if it isnt you its Toby being able to get the scare out of anyone being so quiet on your feet, you two really know how to sneak around in the dark." he said taking a moment to catch himself and posure back to normal. Most would think about knowing when they were in the shadows, however it was still pretty creepy to think you are alone and turn on your heels to someone there waiting ever so quiet.
Needless to say Frank didnt mind it being already in his thought of mind partially heading down the hall, anyone that would be thinking partially would easily be snapped back into reality in a second from an outside source.
"I should've known better to not have my head in the clouds all the time, but it doesnt mean I cant have my moments to think about whats going on. Just from howeveryone acts around here sounds like they all have adjusted one way or another. Even if it means a certain area they call a spot to do whatever, we all in a way left or escaped from past living and became another strange family of sorts."  

[Britt Nightshade]

"You definatly have a solid point having to deal with him, with the entire fact of still getting the fact of being who he is now is still trying to settle in, but i think thats still slightly happening with you at the same time. On the other hand you've done quite alot for not just Toby but for the rest of us that thought there was nothing left to go to when others would turn their back. Some of the reasons were from the accident leaving them as they are, but at the same time gave us a place to call a haven from the rejection and living people would give for being different. It doesnt seem much now, but it"ll change when things become more solid."
Frank accepted his friend's words of kindness, but as well give a little bit of a knowledge that though Tobias had big things on his shoulders to report to and know connections Sam still had her good intentions and tasks being part of the group. It was hard to see it now but everyone had a place to be even if it wasn't seen right on the spot, it was still there to lend a hand to the clan as much possible when the time is needed.
True it seemed like it was Tobias that had quite alot on his plate to have to keep in check when something was on alert, but at the same time even a guy like him needs a few hands to help out when the situation is almost too much to handle. For the time being though it was alright since it was quiet just long enough from now before the dim halls would have the sounds of footsteps.

"Guess not even a slight noise can get past him, still kinda cool to see how that sleeping thing works instead of being tangle each time in the sheets." he whispered before continuing his walk through the halls. The withdrawl had got the best of Frank as each turn and step made everything feel it was longer than it really was. Nothing was happening with most of the occupant deep in a sleep,while he tried to think clear from his mind telling him to remain awake. Seeing no sign of a sudden drop to the ground cold Frank walked downstair to an empty lobby, that seemed to create an echo with every step he took.

Eventually sleep would creep on him watching the slight rays of light from the afternoon sun leak from the cracks of the window,making it seem like two different worlds from the outside day and the seem dark nighttime inside. Just how Toby and Sam would like it to remain unless wanting to have a rude wake up call of not being able to see from the blazing sunlight. Frank had to smirk on the idea of hearing the few choice words Toby would spill from his mouth for going outside without his glasses,thinking it was nighttime already and realizing last minute. The time seem to feel like minutes instead of hours as Frank just paced around the lower part of the house,hoping something would knock him to the ground but it never came. Frank tried to sit down with a few ideas he had written down to improve a couple malfunctioned gadgets and read the possible change in equation till a sound had him almost leap off the chair and under for cover. Overreatcing his heart felt like it jumped into his throat looking around to see nothing,but hear tapping footsteps as if high heels but they were jagged from a reguler step.

"I didn't expect to see anyone up this late in the day, figuring most had slipped into nocturnal mode while you were down doing what a techie does best." a female voice called from the opening to the lobby and livingroom.

Frank got up from staggering to catch a breather to be just as surprised someone besides himself was still awake.Of all the people he talked to last a few hours ago he didn't expect wannabe librarian Brittney to be wandering about, however she wasn't in her typical hoodie and skirt everyone had seen her in when appeared. He could tell just from sight she had just got into the house with the way she had one heel on and off and was walking,trying to sneak in partially quietly but failed if it got his attention. She looked at him for a minute enough for Frank to try and figure out how she changed from book in her face to smearing make up as if crying,he just guessed even the quiet ones had an alter ego.

"Party girl much? never seen this side of you before."

"You wish I was, but alas its not my type of style for reading hidden and out of the way is my habit. I'm impressed how many times I'm able to sneak in and out without being detected,except for now. Wired I'm guessing?"

"Toby said the same thing to me not too long ago,before saying how it can be a hazard at times of forgetting a few things like flaws in equipment. I hate it when I get wired to work then the feeling lingers to no end,so I think of it as." he said rubbing his head trying to focus clear.
Britt was able to see his exhaustion even if it was just as bad as her own,thinking of possible remedies to help the over caffinated guy.

"I would just try anything hot that could mellow you out like mint or calming herbal tea,sure its not the high sugar drinks your used to but it could be a thought. Moving around and pondering will just keep you on track and moving,try sitting in one spot. But then again I forget you have a tendency to fuel on the caffine that simple calming ideas would be ineffective. I can stay with you for a moment since falling asleep is my problem too,switching the times and everything that reading would be pointless when the words scramble all over the place."

She tossed her bag on the chair before doing her best to kick off the hugging heel on her foot to find comfort from the constant wear.
"Who knows maybe sitting and talking will bored you enough you'll pass out sleeping like a baby."
