Its nearly 6am, A mere hour before sunrise. Its been pouring rain all night and buisness has been terribly slow all evening. Suddenly there will be a loud banging on the front door...

*Kim wakes, she's zoned out in her room, sprawled out on her bed with nothing on but a spritz of cheep perfume. She groans angrily and rises, calling to anyone who'll open the door.* Dom! Rosa! You fuckers...the doorbell's ringin'...shit... *She doubts anyone's heard. They must probably be out. Dom's off probably trying to score, little miss. gangstah's probably dragged Misty off to some dingy bar where she's probably making an ass of herself.

Lethargically she slips into a pair of black boy-shorts and one of Dom's black T-shirts, that accidentaly ended up in her washing, then slides into a flowy black robe and stomps to the door.* This better be fucking important...

When Kim answers the door, likely via the sliding peephole that has saved their little fortress from many a raid she will see the strained, white face of Leo Tolsoy.

Leo is one of the thinbloods who Dom refers to as the 'shitheads'. Tolsoy and Skeezy have been missing for about a week and things have been (with the possible exception of Rosa) quiet and easy.

Tolsoy blinks at Kim, his breath reeking through the hole in the door.

'Hey there sugar-tits how about lettin a guy in before the sun comes up...'

*She glares at him though the peephole, scowling.* You little shit...*she hisses, she does not like him much, she'd rather kiss Rosa than have much to do with the likes of him...but he is one of her own, and ...has to take care of him.* What the fuck are you doing out, aren't you supposed to be in the basement or anything? *She perposly leaves him waiting outside, just because he called her 'sugar-tits', if it's one thing (out of the many) she cannot stand is these little fuck-ups calling her pet names, when she is their fucking Madame.*

'Dom said stay outa the basement... besides, im out here in the risin sun with my guts hangin out...'

Tolsoy raises his right hand, soaked in gore up to the elbow to show her that he is in fact, carrying his own intestines like a roll of bloated, useless sausages.

'Let your old boy Tolsoy in now will ya? I think im dying again.'

*Her eyes go wide* fuck! *she yells at the guts, yet it is what may have ripped him up that makes her shout more.* what the hell, anyway? *Suddenly she remembers Slater and Dom's chat...the taste of unknown fear. Is someone hunting them?

As quick as lightning she unbolts the door, grabs him by the collar, tugs him in and shuts the door behind him, all in about 3 seconds.* Speak! *he is now safe in the Stable...or is he?*

Tolsoy looks even worse for the wear once hes inside and not just being seen through a peephole. His intestines hang from his torn stomach, his clothes are caked with coagulated blood and he looks like he took a mauling from a pack of bears.

'God damn Kim... me and skeezy got attacked. I havent seen Skeezy i think hes dead... the thing that attacked us was... horrible.'

Tolsoy shakes, as if having a flashback or some kind of mental block. His intestines slip from his hands and snake down the front of his pants to the floor letting loose a terrible smell.

*This is something she does not want to witness. She pulls the robe off from around her shoulders and draps it around Leo's.* I'm calling a fucking doctor...*She moves to the phone then stops thinking that just might be a bad idea. What if whatever...whoever wants them mashed has the phone tapped?* Crap...*Kim turns to Leo* Never mind, it's just a flesh wound.

*She helps him over to a couch and sets him down. Nostrils flare, she feels sick to her stomach.* Skeezy...he's...dead? *her breath hitches, this was not good. Not good at all.* Please, Leo-boy...start at the begining...*She knows she must get bandages and she does. She tells him to sit still and wait for her to return to recite his tale.

Kim dashes to the bathroom where she pulls out a first-aid kit. In a hurry she's back at his side and with delicate fingers she pulls thr robe apart and almost vomits on his shoes.*

When Kim goes stompin around i get curios. Being on 24 hour lockdown in this dump means ill check out anything just to break the boredom. I dont turn half as many tricks as Kim does so im usually not too busy...

'What the fuck?'

I blurt out from the stairs seeing Tolsoy all opened up like a walking autopsy.

'We thought your bitch ass was dead!'

Tolsoy will scowl at Rosa. He never liked her much, at least ever since she stopped selling him crystal. He will do his best to gather up his innards so Kim can wrap a bandage around his worst wound.

He will need blood to heal, he knows that. But he can hardly walk like this...

'I dont know what it was... we jumped this guy in the park. Some country bumpkin with a bad haircut. He just... he freaked out and we couldnt get away... he became, he was like sasquatch with a chainsaw!'

Tolsoy sounds delusional. Maybe its the pain getting to his head but he doesnt make much sense... Kim will likely notice as she bandages him, the worst smell isnt Tolsoys rotting guts, but a potent animal urine smell coming from all over him...

 I smelled him when he entered, that scent is unmistakable and I am something of a connoisseur. I walked up the stairs, opened the door and listened intently to what was going on. I generally avoid getting involved with my employers business, but they have been generous and kept their part of the bargain intact. At least for now.

2008-12-13 14:13:35 Jacob Brundgardt rolls 7 dice to sneaking close (dex+ste) 6,7,7,9,2, 2,5 (4 successes)

I slowly step around the corner dressed in my trench coat, gloves, sunglasses, and fedora.

"The syndicate is dangerous, once they have found you they will always harrow your steps. You were lucky to have survived the first encounter, learn your lesson well or it will be your last," as he stares at the mans entrails upon the floor. He is repulsed, yet can feel them stir at the scent in the air. They are always hungry and know well the odor that awakens their need.

They were likely searching for me and found this simpleton, it is good his compatriot was destroyed. I need to know whether he lead them back to me, it is possible he is leading them here now. With the others in the room I will need to wait before I question him thoroughly. He will tell me what I need to know, one way or another.

I can be very thorough.

*Kim's quick yet careful, she does pretty good wrapping the bandages around him. She frowns, the smell is repulsive.* A fucking sasquach? Leo-boy, I think you're brain is fried from too much dope, there's no sasquaches.

*A scowel as Rosa enters, must she always act like some damn hood?* Shut up, Rosa! *she snaps, her nerves are on edge and she doesnt need her acting like that when the guys fucking guts are pouring out of him.* Damn, Leo...you gotta tell us everything... details of you can, but...*she takes a sniff* who the fuck pissed on you?

*Kim nearly jumps when she hears another voice. Grand fucking Central Station.*

'I dont know.. It must have been him.. them...'

Tolsoy rambles, looking past Kim at the dark spectre that is Jacob. Tolsoy seems to sink into the couch, his bloated, squishy abdomen held together by guaze and medical tape.

'Syndicate? What do you mean syndicate? Theres going to be more of those things after me now?'

His eyes jump back and forth in a panic.
2008-12-14 14:11:27 Radiation rolls 2 dice to Tolsoy Self-control (Diff 4: Harassment) 3,4 (1 success)

He is weak, confused and sickeningly low on blood. His wounds are so severe he will need to do some heavy feeding. Just by returning alive he will probably need to be given enough blood to keep the entire stable fed for two weeks...

This is one of those rare-times I will actually do what Kim says. I bug my eyes at her but shut the hell up. Its less about her and more about fucking creepy ass Jacob coming out of the basement. That motherfucker makes my skin crawl.

I plop my ass down on the stairs and stare at the guy. Dom said to leave him alone, after his crazy talk i think i realize why. I will give Kim a sidelong glance, as if telling her to watch her back.

'Im uh, gonna go see if i can find Dom..'

I announce quietly and turn to jog up the stairs towards Doms office.

 "They shall never rest, they shall be your shadow for your eternity. I know this. Though you have placed everyone else here in danger now by returning. I know my enemies, but they are innocents. You should consider yourself blessed, I would just kill you," as he continues to stand and stare at the pathetic creature before him.

2008-12-14 16:16:32 Jacob Brundgardt rolls 4 dice to foment animosity (man+sub) 1,10,8,8 (2 successes)

If all goes well he might not have to kill him at all, they will do it for him.

There are noises coming from Dom's office... A woman's voice...

"Oh baby! Give it to me hard! Mmm...yeah... You know I love it when you spank me..."

Some moans.. a few poundings.. obviously this.. excitement.. is happening on Dom's desk... Something falls over....

The woman is heard again..

"Oh yeah baby... You know I love it rough! Bite me! BITE ME!"

Wrong choice of words.. as the woman moans loudly, then it quickly grows softer... after just a minute, a thud as presumably the body hits the ground...

'Oh god damnit.'

I mumble as i listen through Doms door. Normally i wouldnt interrupt. I mean, Doms probably giving some lonely heiffer the ride of her life in there. I grit my teeth and pound on the door a few times.

'Dominic! Your favorite shithead just showed up with his guts hangin out and the creepy motherfucker in the basement is feelin up Kim!'

I exaggerate, slightly, but i figure if anything will get Doms cock back in his pants and down the stairs, it will be Kim in distress.

*She looks up at Jacob and furrows her brows...basement creatures...talking shit, or is he?* Shush, Leo-boy, no one's after ya, you're back here now, safe 'n sound. Don't listen to him, he's probably found Rosa's stash.

*She pats Leo's knee tensly, once, but never lets her gaze leave off of Jacob. She caught Rosa's side-long gaze, and understood. This guy's just...weird.*

2008-12-15 23:09:40 Leo Tolsoy rolls 3 dice to Self Control (Diff 4: Harrassment) 9,6,3 (2 successes) 3/5 to overcome frenzy.

Tolsoy sits up as tall as he can. The movement belching a new wave of urine and guts stench into Kims face. Tolsoy glares across the small room at Jacob.

'You aint killing shit, freak. What do you know? Youve seen them too? Did they rip your guts out too?'

Its hard to tell if Tolsoy is asking questions or throwing an angry pity party. Its very easy to tell the crippled thinblood is close to being pushed over the edge...

*She staggers away, fucking smells! The boy needs a fucking bath...or to be dumped in acid! A scowl, then she fans her hand in front of her nose.

One of them needs to be sent back down into the basement, and locked up.

For now she remains silent, brows furrowing...something stinks in suberbia...and it ain't Leo's guts.*
