This scene continues from Motel 666. The story thus far:
Arnold, Regina, Jayant, and Ajax prepare to take the fight to Mairsil and his henchmen, while Charlie and Markos have gathered the bodies into the motel office in preparation for setting the place ablaze.
Charlie, Markos, and Jayant each regain 1 WP for surviving thus far.

Arnold uses Vitae to strengthen his body, his muscles bulging with Vigor. "Let's move" he says to Ajax, Jayant, and Regina.
Hefting his ax he climbs the stairs, activating his Heightened Senses, the better to find his prey with.

Regina follows, her obfuscated swords at her sides. She strides up calmly and purposefully, every step is deliberate. She keeps her eyes low. The last thing she needed was a damnable ventrue doing what they do best. She counts the number of doorways they pass by, and any protrusions in the wall that would suffice for cover.
(-1 vitae for vigor)
Markos looks to Charle. "We need a torch. Find a chunk of wood, like a bat or something, and a bunch of dry cloth, from there clothing or something. And any car keys we can find." Mark's eyes show an evil glare. His eyes no longer playful or happy but cold and frozen.
Mark takes off his ragged shirt and begins to tear it into strips. "My Plan, in case your wondering, is to push these cars into the building and then light them on fire." Mark states, with no question or pause in his voice.

Charlie smirks slightly at Markos' plan Nice, this should be a scenario Rock Star Games would like.
"All right I'll be back."
Charlie knows exactly where to go to find wood, he heads back to the office where the stacks of bodies are and tears the shirt off the man holding the knife, being that parts of his shirt were already torn from Konstantin's claws. Then he turns to the door he busted down and picks up the pieces that were shattered when he busted it down. With the appropriate ingredients found, he searches the pockets of the bodies for anything of note, keys to cars or wallets No sense in letting good hard earned money go to waste

Jayant follows Arnold and Regina with rugged determination. He didn't really lose his temper. Eveything happened for a reason and when the situation turned dire, he simply carried on without complaint.
Now, he had fallen to the Beast. If anything, Jayant was frustrated. This once simple little hunt had turned tougher than originally thought and it was cutting into Jayant performing the other task the Prince had set aside for him.

Ajax joins Arnold, Jayant, and Regina. As the party on the second floor pass by several open doors (they aren't all open on this side, only the six where Mairsil's vampire hunters came from, three on the top floor, three on the bottom), they find things very much the way Charlie found them on the opposite side. The Stardust has become Mairsil's personal butcher shop. Mutilated bodies stare at the vampires as only the dead can stare, and one cannot imagine them having found any measure of peace on the other side, considering the violent manner of their deaths.
Arnold's Heightened Senses pick up the quiet, electronic hiss of a television up ahead, through the last, closed door on this side of the motel. Every so often, Mairsil's giggling can be heard, as well as a couple of mouth-breathers.
Regina notes that the three open doors open inward, and they could easily duck inside for cover if needed.
Charlie finds little money, about a hundred dollars altogether- these people are staying at the Stardust, on the outskirts of the city proper, for a reason. He does find six sets of car keys, though a quick count of the parking lot reveals nine cars (including the manager's, from which Markos siphoned the gas).

Charlie pockets all six keys and the money Thank you poor deadbeats for the cash.
With bits of wood from the door in hand and a bundle of cloth he returns to Markos and says, "I got found six sets of car keys, there's nine of em outside. So, it's possible there could be other kine out here, but you got plenty of cars to choose from, we'll only have three to physically push up there." he hands Markos three keys and says "If you want you can drive half and I can drive half, and then I can help you push the other three."
"This is what we do. We drive all the cars in but one. The one we don't drive in we use to push the other three in. I don't have the strength to push a car Right now." Mark thought for a minute. "Remember the shirt eater?" Mark asked "Go get him for me."
Mark takes the three sets of keys and goes from one car till the other until he finds a car that it works in. He turns the car over, puts a seat belt on and Backs it up. Mark gets a good distance and Floors it into one of the motel rooms. Just as mark is about to hit the door of the motel room he ducks down to not catch any possible debris in the chest... or heart.

Arnold whispers to his comrades "In the last room. Mairsil and at least two breathers. Someone needs to go first and try the door."
As he says this last bit he's looking at Ajax
Looking around to the rest of them "If it's locked we go in through the window. Everyone gather up by the door. The moment it's open we go in. Ajax and I will go in first followed by Knight Pia and finally Jayant."
Back to Ajax now "Ready when you are."
Then he simultaneously feels and hears the car collide with the motel and after a split second's thought he figures out the source. It wasn't the most subtle plan, but it worked. for a moment he froze, ready to attack any curious figures who might come out of the motel room to investigate the crash.
