ShadowEdge*****John Gears******Clerk
Clerk defense is 2
ShadowEdge looks sharply at John. Thats nice, just hang me out to dry... fucking changeling paranoia...
"Bastard..." ShadowEdge whispers under his breath, calling on the Contracts of Darkness to imbed a fear strong enough to break this man's ability to fight effectively. He slips in and touches the man's hand on the handle of the shotgun.
"Calm down, we're not trying to rob anything."
touch and darkness
Sucidal Fuck! John though as he started to backpedal his way to the door before the place got covered in gore. God help this poor sucker...Unless he is a Loyalsit, which in case he can rot for all John cared.
The clerk panics as ShadowEdge tries to make a move to disarm him, or so he thinks, and the other one's already out of the store, and the door's jingling, before the frightened clerk pulls the trigger at the gun pointed squarely at the Darkling. His eyes shut as he fires...
ShadowEdge 4L
...and when he opens them again, he's shot the would-be robber full in the chest.
ShadowEdge is up.
ShadowEdge, in proper fashion for an assassin with a failed mission, tuck the metaphorical tail between his legs, says "Fuck this..." and RUUUUNNNNNSSSS!!!!!
John Yanked open the door, ignoring the chim of the bell as he got in copper ass out of there!
As ShadowEdge pulls the door open, he feels pain, but only for a second, and all goes black...
Shot in the Back 5L
...is that the Dark Lady reaching out for him, or the barrel of the shotgun held by the nervous clerk, high on adrenaline and fear and fuck all...
Killing Blow. ShadowEdge dies a bloody mess on the liquor store floor
...the clerk paces and curses as he waits for the police to arrive. The man had tried to rob him, it was all on tape...
...John Gears hears shots as he runs, but never sees ShadowEdge follow him.
John kept running.
And running.
And running. Running for his life and existance almost like it was his escape again. he couldn't hear shadowedge behind him. It tore into John for a moment, but it was his guess that the Changeling's survival instinct was weak.
Still...He hated seeing a life die and if the police caught him, he could easily point out he did nothing. No violence on his part and the video evidence would support him. That was what he was thiking as he ran...
