((ST Aside: Damn good roll!))
Narration:
Michael can feel something within his blood.... a sedative of some sort... apparently Sandra was under the effects of some sort of drug, though she certainly didn't seem out of it. He is able to push off its effects for the moment, and he continues trying to escape, but he can tell it is still working its way within his system.
((ST Note: Michael needs to roll Resolve + Stamina for three more turns. On any turn in which he fails, he takes 4 bashing damage, and he can roll again to end the Fear Frenzy at +2. If he gets an exceptional success on any roll, he skiips having to do any further rolls. ))

Michael can feel the drug trying to slow him down and calm him. The Beast won't have it though and resists. Despite Michael's wishes to the contrary, he continues to flee.
Is it bad that I wanted to fail?

Presence
Striking Looks
GoodwillNightfall's eyes widened as he realized the man had taken a picture of him, and he felt a surge of a adrenaline and fear. He hadn't felt that queasy tightness in his chest in a long time, and he resisted the urge to vomit.
He was still staring at the man, lost in the moment, when a commotion broke out. His body moved of it's own accord, survival instinct taking over. Nightfall's hand snaked out, and snatched the phone out of the man's hand, and he began running through the wake caused by the other man, pulling the battery out of the phone as he did so.

Narration:
As he continues to flee, Michael feels himself pushing off the worst of the drug's effects, though he does notice himself feeling somewhat slowed and groggy.
((ST Note: Michael feels somewhat tipsy from the effects of the drug, and though he didn't fail any rolls, he does take partial damage on the other ones [total of 6 Bashing]. This is a departure from general WoD rules re: drugs/poisons, in which the rolls are treated as normal contested rolls, with the drug's successes = Potency and the drug does either full or no damage, depending on who wins the contested roll, but is more reflective of the way the drug in question actually functions. Until the damage is recovered from, Michael will be at -1 Dex and -1 Resolve, which also affects relevant dice pools and figured traits (Speed, Defense, Initiative, Perception, etc.))

Even shrugging off most of whatever had been in Sandra's system, the drug had a hell of a kick. If he'd still been mortal it would almost be enough to knock him out. And that was just a sip of her blood. It made him stumble a little, making his Beast panic even more as he slowed. Slowing down meant death at the hands of the unknown, dark, looming vampire it had seen across the crowd. It could feel it was being chased. It snarled and pushed through more people, trying to get to the exit.
Though he was watching the youthful looking vampire intently, Savage failed to noticed that he drank from the womanspoiler
though he did noticed the vampire stumble a bit
spoiler
He decides to watch more closely at both him and is meal to see what develops next.

Narration:
"Hey!" yells the guy Nightfall grabbed the phone from. Nightfall is running behind Michael as he hears the guy say "Hey, that guy grabbed my phone, someone stop him!"
Arnold sees the girl who got dropped on the floor push herself up. She has a dazed expression, but not the sort of unpleasant expression one might expect of a woman who has had a dance partner drop her on the floor and run off.
((ST note: feel free to keep posting emotional-reaction sorts of posts, but the action needs to pause for a bit until Premsyl is available to post for Arnold. ))
Savage gives the man running with the phone the look over with his vampire senses

Arnold smirks as the younger Kindred bolts, his Beast wanted to tear after him and give him a reason to run, but Arnold wills it quiet. He puts a hand in the air and points, motioning the bouncers to converge on the exit as Arnold moves to guard it himself. Then someone calls out about a thief, and he notices the young man running after the frightened vampire. He felt no Beast in him, but nobody steals from the patrons of his club.
"Detain them both." Arnold yells over the crowd.
He activates the empowering discipline of his clan, boosting his already considerable strength even more as he stalks through the crowd to intercept Michael and Nightfall.
