    If the club had been located anywhere else there definitely would have been noise complaints. Fortunately, or more likely purposefully, the club is located in a comparably small industrial area. Only a few blocks by a few blocks there are enough buildings to keep the sound contained and away from the suburbs outside of it. As the pack approaches however they gradually feel the beat as it rolls out of the open front door of the club. Then as they get within a block they can almost make out the words to the songs that have words.

    It is definitely louder than when Hector and Bleeds Well were here together and seems louder than it was when the pack was looking around on their own. By now people have started to gather outside of the club. Small groups loitering at nearby corners sharing lit rolled objects. As well as a short line leading from the front door. There a single doorman checks ids.

    To help Bird get into this scene smoothly and avoid re-introductions we are considering this scene to have occurred after Construction 101

    Boss called for the front door, Bleeds Well is absolutely done fucking around. Done fucking around to the Nth degree.

    The pack is behind him, somewhere, making their way, he can smell them.

    The heightened senses of a Dalu is muffled slightly. The loudest thing he hears under the baklava pulled down over his face and oversized hoodie pulled up over his head, is the beating over his own heart. It sounds like a war drum pounding out the rhythm of his march toward battle. His breath sounds like thunder inside the backlava. The crushing force that will destroy his enemies. The air movement from his brisk walk blows through his beard that pokes through the stretchy knitting of the mask. A refreshing change from the stifled existence he currently feels under all the bulky layers. If shit goes sideways the extra layers of undedicated clothing will be shredded by the change, but it's worth the measure of concealment it affords as he walking into the lions den to poke a bear with cattle present. The Herd Must Not Know.

    His arms swing strangely as he strides down the dimly lit sidewalk, turning to cross the street and head straight for the door. A gloved left hand tight in a fist as he jogs across the street. The back of his gloved right hand faces forward as he cups the head of a sledgehammer, the long handle slid up the sleeve of his hoodie, an act of concealment only possible due to his increased wingspan.

    His jog increases in speed as it carries him straight toward the bouncer, skipping the line the huddled herd wait in.

    "Bar's Closed," he growls like Christian Bale's Dark Knight to those early, night owls as his feet set and his hips begin to pivot. It sounds almost comical, in the moment, to any with greater than average backbone. Essence leaks into the Humming Birds Heart and his own beats that much faster. Essence burns within his soul and he moves that much faster.

    Hector stalks the streets.

    Openly.

    Sticking to shadows is a bit difficult when you are waring a loud shirt that must be several decades old (he purloined it from outside a charity shop where a woman left a pile of clothes, left from her late parent). His white vest is crisp and new (he scraped the funds to buy that himself). His pants are old, faded and patched in several places - eminently disposable. He got his shoes from the same charity shop as his shirt: they look good but the sole is worn almost through. He has washed, too. Freshly shaved and with his hair slicked back.

    See, in his head, the night is going to go like this: the pack gathers and they bully their way into the club; they will sit openly and Hector will blow the last of his... savings... on one round for everyone - probably some cheap liquid beverage - and by dint of their presence the Ivory Claws will drop on them. Both sides will posture and show dominance. But they won't fight because the club needs some peace right now. They talk...

    Either the Anshega tell them what happened to Chris. Or what they know - and the pack can get on with the real hunt. Or they laugh in his face and say they have him - at which point Hector issues his challenge. At which point they either throw down there, or, more preferably, they meet out in the wlld wetlands to Sacramento's west where they can both unleash and work out their issues with fang and claw. Simple, right?

    Alas, no. The pack's Suthar Anzuth has taken a more... direct approach.

    Hector glowers (at the Herd transfixed in horror; at Bleeds Well for starting things off, well, with a bang; at the damn club and what it represents). He quickens his pace, walking at pace with a predatory gait - all pretence of homeless bum gone. He bares his teeth...

    But the herd are too focussed on the shock of the blatant assault on the bouncer.

    Hector's own scary appearance is... kind of missed.

    Emily has several tattoos:
    - a sleeve of vines and flowers starting on her right shoulder and ending at her wrist
    - a collection of stars on her left wrist, tapering up her arm
    - flowers on her right foot around her ankle
    - A crescent moon on her left shoulderblade

    The Front door swings open and Bleeds Well makes his entrance.

    A few paces behind him and Hector is Emily, hood pulled up to hide her give-away trademark mane even in her larger Dalu form. she slides in behind the others, the Rahu's opening making her feel far more exposed than she wants. "Fucking hell..." she mutters under her breath.

    This is how we get killed, kid. That temper of yours is gonna fuck you up one day, Rahu or not.

    Tiny follows behind. This is going to be a shitshow. But at least they know that going in. He stays in hishu form, letting others be large and in front, while he slips behind, a knife in the dark to their swords in the light. The half moon is about equality, duality, balance.
    And for all the Tiny is open and generous and honest, he is equally conniving and subtle and deceitful.

    He knows a fight is coming, and is ready. [dice]86823[/dice

    If Tiny is a knife in the darkness, Bird is the shadow of that knife, a deeper shade of dark. Like a shadow, he doesn't even leave a scent behind him.

    He follows his new pack mates at a distance in man-skin and dedicated clothing. Instead of heading directly for entry, he blends into the crowd, moving from group to group. He only has a vague idea of the plan here, or the goal. But, he knows his role: wait, watch, and (if necessary) attack from the shadows. The New Moon way.

    Bleeds Well's approach is not how Bird would do it. Wolf's got no flex. But, what Rahu does?

    He's close to the door now, still lost in the herd, watching the pack's arrival, keeping an eye out for any threats they might miss.

    1 success


    Everything depends on what happens next.

    There's a half second freeze of "the hell?" on the bouncer's face before it curls into a snarl as he raises a pointed finger at Bleeds Well's face. The man doesn't look like a brawler, he is wearing a blazer over jeans.

    "Get the fuck out of here before I take that from you." Despite the glare and the words something seems off. The man's eyes shift towards the line of people waiting then almost at the door next to him. Though he always has one eye on Bleeds Well, never know how some people are going to behave.

    The line of people look between Bleeds Well and the bouncer. At least one person chuckles and for a second begins to bring their phone up for a picture. Then Hector is there and while the line of people doesn't feel the Wolf inside him they do see teeth bared by someone who clearly isn't screwing around. The phone halts and the line falls silent.

    Hector has Initiative 10.

    Hector Resists with Intimidate. He is a scary man with awful teeth and a predatory walk. He is not stopping or slowing as he walks right up to the door. I figure this is sheer physical momentum mixed with an understanding of intimidatory mind-games Kelreth

    Initiative Dice not showing up. I rolled a 5
