The motorcycle roars down through downtown Sanfield, zipping through the sparse late-night traffic.  As the cycle nears the Venture Estates he slows down, and then makes a circumference of the building.  He pays special attention to first-floor exits and entrances, as well as the main route into the parking garage.  If possible he heads down into the parking garage.  He keeps a close eye on any security agents, cameras, etc.  He keeps track of how many levels the garage is, where the elevators/stairs are, support pillars, and just the general construction.

2008-05-06 12:57:17 Zaine rolls 5 dice to Patrol for unknown kindred (Diff 9) 4,9,5,2,3 (1 success)

--------------------------------------------------------------

Cayden's scouting efforts are sub par. As he circles the buildings he is unable to spot any of the well hidden cameras. He will see a doorman who must be security, as well as teh occassional outside patrol. The entrace to the sub basement parking is blocked and the guards there will ask for ID and access codes. Neither of which Cayden has and he will be turned away... The guards figuring hes just some weirdo looking for a place to sleep out of the rain...

Unbenownst to Cayden he has attracted some attention. The Ventrue are paranoid and the sheriff is in the area... the first sign Cayden will have of anything being amiss will be when the powerful engine of the Sheriffs Chevelle pulling up alongside his motorcycle...

Zaine revs the engine twice when he pulls up next to cayden unrolls the window and yells "Come over here boy, we have things to discuss."

He stops, but doesn't kill the engine.  Swinging his feet down he straddles the bike and shoves his hands in his pockets in a surly manner.  "Does there seem t' be a problem?" he asks in his thick brogue.  There is nothing outwardly that sets him apart as Kindred.  Maybe pale skin, but then again, he's full-blooded Irish.

Lucky for Zaine he doesnt have to rely on outward things. Caydens weak, pale aura gives him away as a walking deadman much easier than looking for pale skin and pointy teeth. He responds "Yes there is a problem and we have things to talk about so get off the bike and come over here." He smiles and pulls out a cigarette.

"Well if its all the same to ye, I'll stay right here fer now.  Can't be too careful these nights now can ye?"  He gives a little smirk.  "So what ye need to be talkin' to me about?"

Zaine smiles "Yes it does seem dangerous lately" Thinking about the crackhouse shootings to himself. "But actualy i need you to come with me to meet someone, Its very urgent."

"I'm guessin' that someone would be th' Prince, now wouldn' it?"  He can put two and two together, even if he can't tell the man's Kindred just from looking at him.

"Well, unfortunately, I do to be havin' another appointment I must be gettin' to.  No hard feelins though...here's a present.  Suddenly Cayden feels the blood rushing through him, burning more sweetly than any adrenaline.  Time slows down as his hand flicks up from his pocket, a small, egg-shaped object in hand.  His thumb catches the ring and pulls on it.  There's a little metallic click as the pin goes flying and he lobs the grenade into the open window.  

Ducking his head he guns the engine on the bike and makes ready to speed away from the ensuing explosion.  Things just got a fuckin' helluva lot harder.

Grenade Damage: 2008-05-06 16:25:57 Radiation rolls 8 dice to Concussion grenade dmg 3,1,2,5,8, 7,4,1 (failure) HA!.. dud!))

Zaine will throw open the door and jump out of the car expecting a blast... but the blast will not come. Maybe Cayden meant to throw a dud, or someone ripped him off...

Either way, he bought himself a headstart for what will surely be a motorcycle vs musclecar chase...

Zaine Laughs very deeply almost an insane mans laugh while jumping back into his car and rushing after the grenade throwing pussy.

(Ok, Cayden gets 1 drive roll as a headstart. This will be an extended driving contest, Cayden needs to get far enough ahead to lose Zaine. So you will both roll driving (Dex and Drive) checks for me.

If Zaines successes equal Caydens, he can ram the motorcycle with his car.

If Cayden can get more then 4 successes (equal to 40 yards) ahead Zaine has to roll a perception check to stay on his tail.

Drive checks will be made at difficulty 7 for high speed. As there is very little traffic and no bad weather.

A botch at any time will indicate a high speed crash.

OK?

-------------------------------------

"Sonuvabitch," he curses loudly.  He's going to have to wring the neck of the guy who hooked him up with those grenades.  As he tries to make his way through the city and evade the angry Kindred behind him, he quickly formulates a new attack plan.

Zaine burns out in place for a moment etting ready for the chase which is a stupid move because it lets him get farther ahead. But the thrill of the hunt makes the kill all the more fun.

Cayden continues roarding down the road and can't help by let out a sharp laugh as he hears the car burning rubber behind him.

Zaine wheels finaly grip the pavement in a huge cloud of smoke and he picks up speed faster than cayden would have thought, Cayden can here the engine roaring as it closes in on him, but louder than the engine is Zaines Insane laughter.

Cayden tries to swerve out of the way of the racing musclecar but to no avail... The grill of the heavy car slams against the back of the motorcycle with incredible force...

The bike bucks and spills, throwing Cayden at high speed into the pavement and more than likely totaling the motorcycle.

2008-05-06 17:49:32 Radiation rolls 6 dice to Cayden crash dmg (lethal) 1,7,5,8,10, 1 (1 success)

Cayden rolls and rolls for about a half a block.. the motorcycle keeps sliding with a shower of sparks down the middle of the road. Cayden is shaken and less mobile.. but relatively unhurt.

(Lets have two new initiative rolls please)

Sirens can be heard in the distance.

Cayden rolls up on his feet, a sneer on his face.  He has one more little "present" up his sleeve.  Reaching into his left pocket he pulls out another grenade and tosses it under the car, letting it bounce and roll across the ground.  It stops short of the car and explodes in the middle of the street in a bright bang and a shower of smoke.
