    Burly bellowed as both warning and because of the shock. The other creature of the night had simply appeared there, right beside him. His jaw ached and his head span.

    Flailing, he turned on Jacob and fired. He was the closer target and needed to be dealt with before Burly could try and escape!

    A flash and a boom, he was lucky he didn't have to breathe. He didn't need his Beast smelling smoke right now. The shot ripped through the flesh of his thigh, throwing it back. A brief second of subconscious calculation showed that the figure in front of him was probably too strong to overpower directly, but a few more shots would be far too dangerous. Time to take him down. Jacob stepped forward to the right of Burly, using the forward motion and his entire body weight to power through the rip.

    He couldn't help but smile as he felt the air forced from Burly's lungs. It had been too long.

    OOC: This will likely trigger Body Blow.

    Victoria grunted at the projectile slammed into her and she was glad that she wouldn't bruise. Robert still had not acted and she wondered just where he was and what he was doing. She was grateful for the arrival of the mekhet and even more grateful for the thrashing he gave the man. She had pussyfooted around long enough and this man was starting to annoy her with how difficult he was being to overpower. She quickly drew her khukri and rushed in to attack.

    All is movement!

    Ale rushes to cover Vicki, even as the Ventrue bursts forward with her Khukri flying from her bag (her practice has served her well).

    As this happens Burly turns on Jacob and fires. The Shadow is already moving himself, spinning out another merciless strike on the Hunter.

    Burly is stunned, knocked back by the blow... right into Vicki's path as she screams around the car. It doesn't matter - his face is already turning purples and his eyes are rolling into his head. The Ventrue strikes nonetheless.

    Burly is down with a THUD.

    Well fuck. Confession, this was not how he thought this night would be going. Just a walk right? Couldn't hurt! He grimaced as he looked at the unmoving unconscious man before him. The wheels starting to turn... Okay so what can Vic here do? 'Convince' the security guard he saw these two fight? He grit his teeth.
    Except what about the video tapes? Or the evidence in here? Could she erase or alter memories? Or command them to tell certain stories?
    What would Dad say if he could see you now. He forced air in and out of his lungs once. The entire internal exchange lasting a few moments.
    We could have left it, we could have observed the place. Damn hotheads.

    "Okay, we need to make sure that secuirty guard isn't making calls after those shots. You're probably best for that Lady Seneschal." Jacob speaks quickly, "Burly here won't be out for long, how long will the other one stay put?"
    Fuck. He looked down, forcing blood into his leg. As blood knit unliving flesh he waited for a response.
    Fuckity fuck fuck fuck. At this moment internal eloquence took the back seat to surpressed panic.

    First thing you will notice about Ale is the abundance of her tattoos. They go from her face all the way to her feet, and not much is left bare. The second thing? Her strong Italian accent.

    Well shit...didn't see feel useless in this fight. Glancing at the two Kine, she shakes her head,

    "I suggest we restrain them and put them in the back of the van. Obviously if not and they wake up, they're probably calling for backup. And I'm sure we have some questions for them." it made the most sense to her.

    "And yeah, those shots are gonna bring some heavy questions. Best get out while we can, and yeah, if you could handle any questions, that'd be great." clearly she had the charm, but she was also injured. "Are you hurt bad?" she asks with concern, and will look at Jacob as well, though Victoria was her main concern. With her vast knowledge of guns, she knew they hurt like hell, but it was nothing that couldn't be healed with some Vitae.

    Victoria seriously doubted that there were only two hunters working in a group or cell, or was cells for terrorists? Regardless it didn't matter at the moment, they didn't have much time to act, the gun will draw police, it is possible that in a bad area one or two gun shots would go unnoticed, but she couldn't take that risk.

    "Agreed," Victoria said curtly. "We need to move fast. Get Mr. trigger happy in the back of the van and try to wipe up any blood quick. I think there is some rope back there for securing loads. Then we can lock up and take them to my safe house for questioning."

    Since security didn't yet know they were there, she felt it best to keep it that way and try to leave before they were discovered. That way their friends will waste time wondering where their pals are instead of knowing that something went down here. Also with Cross missing she would have to ensure that they had photos of those boards before they left.

    "I need some close up photos of those bulletin boards too, Cross was supposed to do that. I'll get this one moving," she said nodding toward the mesmerized one.

    Victoria turned to the mesmerized one and focused her will on him once more.

    "Get into the back of that van, sit down on the bench, and do not take any other action or say anything unless you are told to do so," she commanded.

    If the memorized one complies Victoria will then take some photos of the bulletin boards.

    Okay, this was good, they seemed to know what they were doing. If that can be considered good. Jacob wasn't native, though, he knew the hunters would kill them on sight if they knew what they were. He would have offered to memorize the board, but, pictures were just as good. He rolled up his sleeves, trying not to think about how he was going to carry an unconscious man off to be probably be tortured, and looped an arm under the armpits and then the other under the knees. For a moment wondering if he even could lift the man.

    2016-10-28 21:58:53 Jacob Maddox rolls 3 to Lift Burly (Str + Athletics) (10 Again) 1, 7, 9 1 success

    Maybe due to some vampire version of adrenaline his normally weaker frame lifted the man without (much) complaint. He placed the man in the back of the van and found the straps that Victoria was talking about. Realizing once he was there that he really didn't know how to tie a good enough knot. He trotted back over, "Ale I don't suppose you know how to tie a good knot? I left our friend in the car but I don't really trust myself to secure him. I can clean up the blood here." He scanned the area, the man hadn't been cut that horribly. He hoped it wouldn't take that much time to clean. He knew enough about forensics and biochemistry that he was likely the ideal candidate for the task.

    The issue here wasn't fooling CSI, that would be easy. Just push a pint of blood out of his system, they'd be so many different people's DNA they'd never even know where to start looking. No, the issue is making it look as though nothing ever happened here. He didn't have to fool investigators armed with luminol and laboratories capable of PCR. He had to fool a couple assholes that liked to play a hunter.

    After Alessandra responds, he'll take a quick look at the inside of the storage space. Looking for anything that would be useful.

    His eyes were keen and trained, but that didn't mean there was anything to find in the first place.

    OOC: let me know if I made a wrong roll or didn't achieve enough successes on the first one!

    The mesmerised hunter lumbered, obedient and compliant into the van. He even started chatting to his comrade when Jacob hauled him in, chiding him about "getting drunk on the job."

    While Victoria carefully photographed the three cork boards, Jacob set to work cleaning up the scene as best he could. The word "Score" could have been appropriate: he found a box of household cleaning materials amid the wreckage of the shelves. It was enough to clean up the blood stains (within reason) and the putty was just gold - those bullet holes vanished. Crude, yes. But it would fool cursory examination - and that gave them time.

    Almost...

    "Mac? You guys okay?"

    Just as Jacob was finishing up. Just as Vicki takes her last photograph. The night manager: rotund, sweaty; shotgun in his podgy hand, pokes his head down the line of garages in the most cowardly way possible.

    OOC Note. I chose not to roll resistance for Balaclava Hunter. It could be an added complication and we need to start bringing this to a close.
