Ishani almost follows Asa until she see's his gambit pay off, then turns her attention back to the zombie that struck her. Hands moving rapidly, she strikes it repeatedly with strong blows.
Ishani is DEF 0 for the Turn

"Fuck..." Peter growls, forcing blood to the bite wound to heal some of the lethal damage -- the quicker the better.
Swing and a miss...
Peter tries to claw at the Ghoul, but with the two still rolling around on the walkway he's not able to hit his mark...
"Ishani..."
The call comes, Peter's voice sounding weaker than normal... almost hollow...
Even as Ishani fells one zombie, the next one shambles up the ladder, and another behind it. The first swings, its fist hitting like a club. The second grabs Ishani, wrapping its arms around her.
The zombie Asa cut earlier starts to clamber back up the ladder, going slowly due to the damage to its hands. It doesn't get far before Jackson shoots it, blowing its head off. It falls off the ladder and sinks into the murky water.

Ishani takes 2 Bashing damage and is grappled. Joseph and Gideon are up next; the vampire they were fighting is staked, by Asa.
Joseph looks down at the staked vampire. I wonder if the Prince will allow us to examine him...
Joseph looks back the way the vampire had come from. Now expecting more assailants.
Gideon withholds, the immediate threat dealt with by the Prince. Joseph does not detect any other assailants at the moment.
Headstrong sees Gideon is okay and goes back toward Ishani and to watch if anything else comes out of the water.
The man Dominated by Joseph continues to remain still.
The man who climbed out of the water last turn draws a pistol from under his jacket. The one still in the water swims toward the ladder, his Dominate broken by his having completed the task given him by the Prince, but on the way to the ladder, he stops and cries out, then is abrubtly pulled beneath the surface of the water. All present can see ripples and splashing from some violent activity below the water's surface. The guy with the pistol takes a glance at that and at the vampires across the way and retreats back down the passageway from which he came.
Initiative Roster
Asa * Ishani * scaley ghoul * Peter * zombies * Jackson * Joseph * Gideon * ghoul across water (Dom'd, 4/6 turns) * Headstrong
Scaley = Def 3, Armor 2.
Human ghoul = Def 3
Zombies = Def 0
Snakey vampire = Torpid
New turn... Asa is up.
For the record DD, Peter won't be using his defense this turn... risky as it is, he needs to finish this scaley. Here's hoping it works. Go armor!
Asa's eye's blazed in anger as he saw the zombie grasping at Ishani, distracting him from the sight of Joseph apparently paralyzed in fear. Drawing another knife and rushing back over, he slashed and stabbed at the disgusting thing, knife biting deeply as he tried to free her.
