2. No posting order, but please post ONCE for every post I make.
3. Keep track of your own health and tempers.
4. Questions in the chat. Don't IM me. If I don't see the question, repeat it until I do *LOL* If I don't respond for minutes on end -- I'm probably posting. You should wait, unless it's absolutely urgent, upon which you should PM me once.
5. PM me your applicable flaws. This includes stuff like nightmares and phobias and hatreds and compulsions.
6. If there are any off-limits themes, imagery or events you do NOT want to see in a scene, PM 'em to me now.
7. Your characters are near Purifier's parked motorcycle, a few blocks from Grant Park proper, not far from a cafe.

You can all post yourselves in. My post will be inits. Go!

[Gossamer Wing] No flaws (heheh) Calm Heart merit.

[Requiem for the Lost] Lately, Liam Foster had been taking a lot of walks. The walls of the brotherhood tended to feel cramped and closed in even on the best of days. These days, they were downright claustrophobic. So the galliard found himself once more pacing the sidewalk as he headed towards Grant Park, hands stuffed into the pockets of his leather jacket and breath making little wisps of steam in the crisp air.

[Requiem for the Lost] [Possibly applicable flaws: claustrophobia and pierced veil]
to rarfarm

[Gossamer Wing] It's not as unusual as one would think to see the Godi out and about, taking a walk at 2am. What makes it unusual is that she's not walking, so much as running - and not jogging. No, she's running in a zigzag fashion, that looks more like she's playing tag.

Tag.
In the park.
By herself.
(so it seems...)

She's laughing, and her dreads and skirts are flying behind her as she twists this way and that, breathless with the delight of whatever she is doing.

Godi's are weird.

[Wendy Berber] *Two Am. She's coming home from Triarii after some late night code-monkery. Pleased as can be. Why was she working so late? Well, she lived in a home with 4 teenage werewolves, and it was a full-moon. Enough said. The skinny bookworm is crossing a parking lot, well under the ugly yellow glow of the streetlights. Keeping to well lit areas, hugging her laptop to her chest. She's bundled in a thick sweater and a long olive skirt. Woolen. Ugly. Second hand. Her glasses sitting crooked on her nose, bag of books heavy at her side. Wendy Berber taking the opportunity to stretch bony stork legs, long since cramped and stiff from sitting at a too short desk all day and night. Overtime. The nerd could taste it. And it tasted like sweet fiscal victory.*

[Purifier] He bops along the street. Still listening to his music with one earbud in his ear. White cord dangling. Brown leather coat pulled tight around him. Skinny legged jeans. Converse. Eyes flipping around. As he walks towards his shining black bike. It's special to him. He loves the freedom. And the full-throated vroom noise it makes. And the wind rushing by when he's on it. And secretly he likes feeling his balls vibrate too, vibrate with POWA.

[rarfarm] There's no warning.

It shouldn't be possible to take a Garou by surprise. They're warriors, born and bred. They're monsters. They're animals, with an animal's reflexes.

But Requiem for the Lost never sees it coming. Suddenly a hand clamps over his mouth and a blade knifes into his kidneys. If he were human, it would be a killing blow.

He's not human. And, lucky for him, he has friends nearby.

to Wendy Berber

[rarfarm] Purifier can see that the man across the street just got knifed in the back. His attacker is tall and blond and grinning. There's something wrong with his eyes. They seem to glow.
to Purifier

[rarfarm] Gossamer can see that the man across the street just got knifed in the back. His attacker is grinning. There's something wrong with his eyes. They seem to glow.

Also, he's not alone. There's another man in the alley behind him. And another on the rooftop overhead.

They're all tall, blond, male. They could be brothers.
to Gossamer Wing

[Purifier] His eyes sweep to the side. Mumbling. "My spidey senses ar-" Then he sees someone knifed. By a lunatic, because only they go around knifing people. And the man is wrong. So wrong. "Wha-holy-wai-fuck!" He starts running. His arms working overtime to shrug out of his jacket. Because even if he's going to fight, he's gotta think about nice things like that cloak. Fuck. His slim shoulders wriggle out. Purifier to the rescue. Prepare to be cleansed.

[rarfarm] (OK, you should've all gotten PMs at this point! Roll init. You may write a short post if you want.)

[rarfarm] Within seconds, the street is bloody horror.

Garou and Dancer -- and these wolves are Dancers, no matter what they look like -- tear into each other with tooth and claw. In seconds Liam is nearly dead, the creature that stabbed him in the back not far behind. In seconds, the Dancer from the rooftops is dead, but he comes back.

And tears into Joss again.

--

There's a stirring in the alleyway across the street. A trashcan topples over. There's a snort, low and bestial.

Horns gleam in the dark.

Then the dark vomits out the stuff of nightmares. A massive Hispo, larger than any most of them have ever seen, comes charging out of the narrow confines between buildings. He's easily seven feet at the withers, on all fours. The ground shudders under his weight. His pelt is pure grey, but it's covered in callouses and stinking warts, not unlike the gift of protection Gossamer Wing tried and failed to call upon.

Curving out of his temples is a pair of horns, jet black. The points curve inward and forward. He charges across the street, closes implacably on Purifier, the one Gaian yet unharmed in all this. His head snaps left, then right, vicious twisting thrusts that toss the Ahroun into the air and gore him in a one-two strike so fast it feels like a single blow.

[rarfarm] There's blood on the street. Blood on their faces. Blood in their eyes. Blood running in the gutters.

At one point, Liam dies. The light in his eyes fades. Fades. Sparks back. Burns.

At one point, Art lands a hit on the Alpha of the Spiral pack that would've killed a lesser Garou. It barely even penetrates his hide.

At one point, two of the Dancers hit the ground. They don't come back a second time.

By the end, the Gaians are sorely wounded, all of them nearly dead. Wendy is clutched in the smallest Dancer's paw, and small as he is, the stick-thin kin seems merely a shadow.

The largest Dancer, mighty and horned, is barely scratched. He roars fury and hate at them, so deep and loud a noise that their lungs quiver in their chests.

And then he unleashes his fury.

[rarfarm] The Garou give everything they have.

Purifier, frenzied, lunges for the enormous Alpha. He's leaping for the throat when the huge Dancer simply picks him up and throws him. He soars. He smashes into the wall so hard the brick facade cracks and chips. A window on the second story shatters. The Ahroun lies still, barely breathing.

His compatriots rage on. One by one, they hit the ground. One by one, they struggle back up, furious, fighting on.

All except one.

Of the group, Requiem for the Lost is perhaps the least warlike. A musician. A Galliard. A child of Unicorn. Perhaps he never asked for this burden: to be Garou. To be a warrior in a losing war, a child of a dying mother. Certainly, he never asked to be attacked tonight.

But he was. And attacked, he fought back. He fought well, and ferociously, and honorably, and when all honor and wisdom was scorched away by sheer rage, he fought

like a Garou. Like a warrior in a losing war. Like a child of a dying mother.

He doesn't give up. Even when the Dancer tears his allies down around him, he snaps at the huge Dancer. His form is flawless; his teeth devastating. Even when his teeth glance off the creature's hide, he fights on. He doesn't give up. Even when the horns, red with the blood of Unicorn's Ahroun, red with the blood of Fenris' Theurge, drive deep into his underbelly,

down to the viscerae.

down to the bone.

down to the very center of him, tearing arteries, pulverizing organs, crushing his spine --

he doesn't give up.

There's a livid light in Requiem's eyes. His teeth find the monster's throat. He bears down with all his might, but it's not enough. His strength is leaving him now, slipping from his limbs like water from a sieve. His vision grows dark. His rage burns, twists, flares, struggles.

And then it simply
goes
out.

--

The limp body of the Galliard hits the ground, small, human, mangled. The horned Alpha raises his head and howls triumph, a bloody, ugly sound.

Sumup:
Alpha - 6agg
All else - Dead

Liam - Dead

[Wendy Berber] *Wendy clutches her snubnosed little hand cannon, bruised, covered in lack spiral dancer blood. Glasses missing somewhere in the street. She doesn't move but to tremble in place behind a spiral corpse, watching the garou losing their minds a few short yards away. That pistol gets clutched just a little tighter, skinny kin breathing hard and fast, beside the shredded smoking form of "Delta"*

[Strikes with Valor] There is not condolence for this.
There is nothing any of them can say.

When combat is done and there is no more blood to be shed Strikes with Valor finds his Alpha to take in his alms and howls -- no howl of triumph, no howl of victory, but one of mourning -- another true born of Gaia has fallen and someone mourns them to her moon.

[Purifier] Time passes. Albeit slowly. Eventually consciousness comes back to him in drips and drabs. The smell of blood. The taste of the asphault he's laying on. The pain he feels all throughout his body. He lets out an animal whimper. A whine as he tries to roll up to his side and fails the first time. His huge paws scrabble a few times. His stomach hurts still. He's been gored along one flank. Two huge puncture wounds pierce the skin and blood pours out. Guts are visible under the shredded flaps of skin around it. Eventually he gets his paws under him.

He rises to his feet unsteadily. Swaying like a drunk. He limps towards the other. Feet making an off-beat thumping noise as he gets closer. Finally coming to a halt in front of the two Garou, one who lays dead. He flops onto his haunches, tilts his head back, and lets out a throaty whimpering call of mourning too. He didn't know the other Garou, but all of the Nation's Garou are important.

[Gossamer Wing] She bites. She bites again. Until there is nothing left, until she is spent and they are all dead, until they no longer get up, until the last bastard has fallen.

As well as one of their own.

The howl of mourning rips through her as she falls, to the ground, as her fur melts away to skin and bone and skirts and scars and dreads and quietly burning fury.

There is nothing they can say. There is nothing they can do, so she does what she can. She stands, and makes the rounds. First, to Wendy. "Ya alright, Wendy? Just, hang on, and I'll get you home."

Then, Ben makes his way by, and she reaches out and lays her hand on his shoulder. He is unknown to her, but fought well, and her touch brings about healing to one, at least, she can save. She doesn't ask. She simply does.

[Wendy Berber] *Wendy pushes warily to her feet, bruised, but not broken. Not like the lifeless young man cradled in Art's arms like a child. Owlish blue eyes leak tears. He couldn't be older than her by much. Her head ducks and she sniffles quietly, not wanting to intrude on the grief of the garou, a shakey hand coming to wipe her nose as the tall kin stoops -- only to realize she's still holding her revolver, safety off. She looks around, before safetying the thing once more.*

[Strikes with Valor] He has no words for them when he finally picks his alpha up in his arms, so small and fragile in his birth form, he has no words for he knows none to say to those whose still survive. He understands only his current despair, and the need to take Liam's body to the Caern, to meet those other who had fallen in combat.

Strikes with Valor has no older knowledge than that which says -- take your Alpha home, child, and give him his due.

[Gossamer Wing] Once done, she moves past to Art, where he cradles his fallen Alpha, and mourns. She can not save Liam, but she can give Art what strength he needs to carry his fallen home.

Her voice soft, she murmurs to him. "He fought bravely and well. I would be honored to prepare the Gathering, unless you've another you'd rather."

(MT on him as well - correct dice and everything.)

[Purifier] He turns to growl at Joss as she lays a hand on him, even to heal him, but it dies half-hearted in his throat. His head sags and he lets out a sigh as life rushes through him. Patches up his wounds. Flesh knitting back together. He melts back to his human form and for once isn't all that concerned about the fact that he's naked in front of a couple women. He looks small. Scrawny some would say. Wiry and thin. He reaches up with one tired hand and wipes muck from his face, combs his hair back from his face.

His voice is soft. He murmurs, "What was his name?"

[Strikes with Valor] He feels his strength return to him.

It is the most bitter of balms to Strikes with Valor though he knows she means well, and turns his eye upon her, and then toward an unknown of his tribe.

"His name is -- was Requiem for the Lost, and well shall cry it aloud as a brother lost in the bravery of combat."

[Wendy Berber] *Wendy's tired. The kin looks it. Tired of conflict. Tired of Carrnage. Tired of death. Her gun is tucked away. Her satchel of books pried with effort from under the body of a dead BSD. Bloody. She was getting so she didn't have a single book not tattered or stained with someone's damn blood. A shakey breath as she forces stork legs forward. Approaching Art and Liam only timidly. She sniffs, wiping at her cheek with a spindly hand and looking down at the fallen garou.* H-he.. saved me from , um.. from assassin ..vines. In Chinatown.

[Purifier] He nods heavily. Looking down at the man for a few moments. Staring quietly at the body of the man who's fallen in battle with him. Remembering. Finally he sucks in a deep breath, lets it out in a slow sigh and nods again.

Lifting one knee he plants a foot, then presses his arms against his knee to prop himself up as he rises. His body groans with it. The two holes in his side are red, puckered, and still not fully healed. Bruising has flowered all around it from the impact. And of course, he's stark naked. His head turns and looks over to where he'd dropped his jacket with his things. Then back to the body, and mourning Garou.

"Tell me what you want on his marker. Anything you want. I'll make it."

[Gossamer Wing] She stands, and surveys the bodies left, the damage, the cleanup needed, and reaches beneath her skirt to the silken underskirts there, ripping a long length of them free. (She loses more petticoats this way!) She takes the time to bind her own wounds, while she still feels nothing, and then begins to drag the four bodies into the alleyway, until she can get her van.

She lets them mourn, remember - for now. But there are things that must be done before the sun rises, before people get nosy, before the veil is breached.

And so she works to protect them all.

[Purifier] He joins in with Gossamer Wing. Helping to drag the bodies into an alley nearby. Not much use in that way, since he's not particularly strong, but he grunts with the effort, leans into it and manages it without complaint. When things are hidden away, he trots out to the street to retrieve his jacket with his wallets, keys, and ipod. Then he ducks back into the alley and sits down to wait. The sudden self-consciousness coming back, and he has to hold his jacket over himself to try to cover up his manhood. Squatting in the cold. Starting to shiver a bit.

"How about I wait here? I hope you have a car..."

[Wendy Berber] *Wendy looks to Ben as he speaks, squinting so as to see more than a blurry form. A swallow as she realizes the strange garou was naked and likely cold. For once, shopping entirely for ill fitting thrift clothes serves purpose other than fiscal responsibility. Ben trots into an alley, and her ugly green grandpa sweater is peeled off hastily. She moves towards him and and offers it shyly, new bruises and old scars visible now as she stands shivering in a tanktop.* um.. here.

[Gossamer Wing] She nods. "A van. It's not far from here. If you'll help me load it, I can take care of the disposal."

She pushes back her dreads, her slender frame covered in blood, core, and nods. Her smile for Wendy is genuine - if tired. Art has begun his walk to the Caern, and that leaves only the clean up to be seen too.

~~~

True to her word, she is not gone long. She returns with the van, and accepts the help loading the bodies. Then she will do three things: Introduce herself properly to Ben, see Wendy home safely, and then go to cleanse, and dispose of the bodies.

Only then will she return to the kin house, her attic, a hot shower, and allow herself to mourn the loss of one of their own.

[Purifier] He refuses the sweater. Can't let a kin freeze. Helps load the bodies. Introduces himself fully to Joss and Wendy on the ride home and mainly tries desperately to keep from exposing himself while with two strange women. He asks to get dropped by an apartment in a neighborhood in Lakeview. Renovated warehouses and such. He darts into one, trying not to be seen naked by one of his neighbors.

[Wendy Berber] *Wendy helps with clean up best she can, obscuring blood with leaves, keeping watch for mundane company, anything she can do, trembling subsiding with time. She introduces herself, Wendy Berber. Former glasswalker kin. Mate to Boy - Brother of the Lost, Uktena. Kin of La Familia. Formalities done with, her laptop is gathered from the parking lot, Joss getting a timid hug before the kin all but falls out of the Van at the La Familia Packhouse, stumbling in bloody for the second time this week.*

[Gossamer Wing] (think thassawrap!)

[Wendy Berber] (we's done!)
