    A spike of fury flashed through Twist as she looked on the painting.

    Someone thought this ... this ... creatura dalla pelle rossa was her?!? She would find them and skin them. Skin them and bathe in their blood until she was as red as they were with their bared muscles. As red as the painting she held in her hands.

    In her hands.

    Even as the initial spike of rage began to fade and logic about what she held in her hands started to return, her attention was snapped out her fury filled planning as the rats came.

    The rats came and so did Suits. Mable's warning clicking into place in her head.

    Letting the painting roll closed, she shook a rat off her foot as she called up her blood. Things were starting to move.

    "Mable- take him!" she said, grabbing at Rosario with the intent to thrust the man at Mable. He had seen. He was as much evidence as the painting she held in her hands. And then moving to the Gallery doors she called out even as she worked to pull the door closed against the tide of rats, "Get out! They are inside! Get out now!"

    Twist is going to try to get a look at the two suits approaching before closing the door in their face. Any reaction from her Beast to indicate Kindred?

    Up above the tide of rats over the acoustic ceiling tiles, Dirt Nap listens closely and peers though the cracks to try to get an idea of whether the coast is clear in the art showing room beneath him for him to be able to slip down there and change into a human seeming form without being observed, and where the others are, Mable, Edward as well as Simone or Melanie or the artist.

    Sorry for posting out of order, ST requested a roll for what Dirt Nap would know to decide when his turn to act comes.

    Mable obeying Twist, grabbed Rosario and pulled him along with her trying to find a safe place to bring him. At the same time visions from Melanie continued to flash. She couldn't focus too much on them because she needed to keep her wits about her. Hopefully the rats would help the others.

    "Come on...keep up." She encourages Rosario. "My friends and I will keep you safe." She encouraged him.

    Edward heard the shouting, but he didn't bother to come back. With Twist present, he was profoundly unconcerned. Until he saw the cause of the outcry, he stared, dumbfounded at the sheer number of rats trying to get in. Did the sewer flood!? The moment was broken by a rat running over his shoe.

    "For goodness sake." Edward muttered to himself, walking back. Twist's shouting turned the walk into a run. He beelined towards the portfolio bag, the cane clutched in hand, intending to grab it and follow the other investigators out.

    Clarification: the men in suits already entered the building with the rats. They are walking down the hallway to the art exhibit room, so helpfully indicated by signs. They pass by Melanie, hiding in the dark.

    Dirt Nap can locate Mable and Twist, and that the area is dark. It's likely that a dark corner will provide cover enough as the flashlight phone are in the hall and by the front doors.
    The mortals are impacted by complete darkness, using cell phones to watch the rats crawling over their shoes and swarming the hall. Walking is impacted to a walk by the sheer amount of rats to walk over and bypass.

    There's two exits: the front glass door and the back door with the mental screen. The ghouls are walking down the hall from the front door. There is no sign of a beast.
    In fact, they direct powerful flashlights down the hall. One, the blonde, carries a semi automatic pistol on his hand. The second has a pistol visable in a holster at his waist.
    Rosario is startled at the shove, but says quietly " Simone said to give you the painting..? I could go with you, I guess..," He does not resist, but he is not using any apparent supernatural abilities. He adds a -1 modifier to athletic/ foot chase rolls. He also appears to not be able to see, which adds mobility issues unless someone provides a light for him, which would likely indicate their location to the approaching men, men Melanie has hidden herself from.

    to scan the ghouls for other weapons, or foot chase out of the building to the back door is possible. Phone post, apologies for formatting
