Ace sprints after them, I'm getting too old for this shit...
Now that the man was nowhere to be found, Jackson's terror subsided somewhat, though the fear remained.
"I'm not going anywhere with you until you tell me what the hell is going on here. Who are all of you, what was wrong with that guy, and what happened to me?"
Ace finally catches up.
Look kid, calm down, you're gonna be fine... Just hold still, I'll explain everything to you alright? What's your name? I'm Ace.
O-Yama smiles a little bit at what he's about to say but makes sure he keeps his face jovial as he talks to the fresh one.
"This is going to sound crazy, but you ever wonder if vampires were real? Me and Ace here are vampires.... and you my friend are too. I bet you have this wicked hungryness right now but absolutely nothing sounds as if it would appetise? Just come with us, we'll help you through this. My name is O-Yama by the way."
Ace looks over at O-Yama.
I might not have jumped right in with that. But I suppose we can be blunt. Seeing as he can run our asses all over town all night every time he gets scared of something we say. he sighs.
Jackson just stares at them, incredulous.
"You're freaking crazy."
Look. While what O over here said is true, you need to calm down. C'mon, I got an open spot in my warehouse, dawn is coming and you'll be fucked if you stay out any later. You stay out here much longer? And a different Kindred find you? You'll be dead that way too.
I'm not gonna kill you kid, come with me alright? Ace says, about to wash his hands of the project and then pummel O-Yama.
Jack shrugged, wishing he had a gun.
"You can outrun me, so what choice do I have? All right, I'll listen to your babbling."
"C'mon kid, lets go to my haven." Ace says, leading the way.
"Look, you're a vamp. You remember what happened the last couple days? So maybe I can figure out who it was? he asks.
