The Rot Beneath: Ch 1 Alessandra's Act

[Seryna]

The Gangrel remains Within the warehouse, the gooey corpse remains. Who is this Kindred? What thoughts were brought up by knowing that Final death had been leveled without the Permission of the Prince?
The minutes tick by.

As far as Alessandra knows, the area that she observes is quiet. The sounds of cars can be heard on nearby streets.

[Alessandra]

Ale is outside the warehouse, tucked against a wall, observing it and the world around it. Looking at the other warehouses, the shadows.

The vibration is felt in her pocket and she checks the phone, nodding and pocketing the phone again. The Ventrue was on his way, she was curious if he would have any insight.

Who would dare issue Final Death on another? If such a Breach was made, why wasn’t a better effort made to dispose of the evidence? Was it a message? Or was it a bigger threat?

The night is dark and full of terrors. This is a sentiment, perhaps belief - that has clung to the psyche of developing people throughout the eons. This can be felt where Alessandra stands. She can hear the night moving around her. In the distance, sirens scream as other emergency vehicles hurtle to various emergencies and tragedies. People scream, shout and jostle each other in the dark corners of other warehouses. These areas were used for clandestine meetings as much as for storage and commerce. Tonight, Ale can hear the sounds of other underground denizens jostling for position and posturing somewhere unseen, in their own warehouses.
Yet her own warehouse domain seems to be whole and waiting for the Kindred to continue their business. The night begins to stretch and age.
A car can be heard idling on a nearby street.

Otto Schneider can post into this thread to join the plot

[Otto Schneider]

Not for the first time, Reverend Otto Schneider was thankful that his dead body wasn't beholden to the rigors of mortal life. He had been keeping a brisk pace half-running towards the address the Prince had provided. That he couldn't sweat through his suit was a blessing. With assistance from his smartphone, he was able to locate the approximate location where Alessandra was located. Or at least, where he thought she would be...

Otto turned around in the vicinity of the warehouse, unsure if he was in the right place. He tapped the screen of his phone rapidly for a few seconds, trying to see if it was frozen. "Your Grace...?" He called at a half-whisper, unsure of who might be whispering but unsure of how else to draw the attention of the Prince given the circumstances.

[Alessandra]

It was, of course, her Beast that alerts her to the approach of Otto before her eyes do. It snarls in anger at the weakness that approaches it. The Savage yanks back on the chain that holds the Beast, putting it back in its corner as her dark eyes settle on the Lord.

Stepping from the wall and shadows she had placed herself, “Thank you for coming.” Comes the Italian accented voice. “Here I’m Sofia, and we have a issue.” Motioning with an inked hand for him to follow her into the warehouse.

The two Kindred move within the Warehouse, to discuss the importance of what has occurred.

[Otto Schneider]

"Sofia." He parroted back dully, registering the appellation as his Beast screamed at him to retreat. Still, Otto managed to stand his ground despite his instinctual fear. He followed after the Prince dutifully, hands stuffed deep into his pockets and casting wary glances around.

"So, how may I assist... Sofia?" It was hard enough to adjust to calling the Alessandra anything other than 'Your Grace', addressing her by a given name, even if it wasn't her true name, felt... wrong, somehow.
