Worlds of Darkness, part three.

Sorry this one is late,

So the man from the bar in the vampire's safe house was sitting on the police officer's dresser. Lord only knows how long he'd been sitting there, but he's there and this startles the waking officer.
"Hi."
"Hello, who are you?"
"A friend, you got anything to eat?"
"There's spray cheese in the fridge."
"Neat."
The strange man scampers off and grabs the cheese, he returns with two cans.
"Who are you and why are you in my home?"
"I'm a friend, I'm here to help."
"What's your name?"
"I haven't thought about it in a while..."
It kind of degenerated from there as I put some scattered thought into a name. I didn't come up with a very good one, so I'm gonna glaze over that part. The man drops, with little other information, that a kindergarten class will be endangered by the antics of someone or something, tells him where to meet people who can help him, the facts about the residents of the safe house, confirms what the officer already knows about the werewolves and with that runs out the door and vanishes.

The officer got out of bed and got ready for work. He showered, shaved, got in the car and headed for the doughnut shop. The kid behind the counter gave him attitude, as usual, and then three coffees and 2 doughnuts. He took them to his car and drove to work. He got there and was assigned to highway patrol. He drove a few kilometers away and hid behind a sign. In an attempt to gather his thoughts on the last night he read the bible instead of watching the road.

The wolves got another call from their pack leader. "I've made and recieved some unpleasant calls tonight, but I may have found you some back up." They are given a time and an address, right across from the gas station. They split up and made their way across the woods to different sides of town. The female found the cop, the male found breakfast. He came out of the woods and asked, "Hey, is that steak?"
The mage replied "Yes it is."
"How much?"
"How much you got?"
So the mage charged the wolf for the steak and then mixed himself a drink.
"You bastard. How much?"

The female wolf switched back to her human form beside the cop car. The officer is surprised by the woman who threw a car door at him appearing, naked, beside his car while he is on duty. "Can I help you?"
"I want to talk."
"Okay."
"I'm sorry I threw a door at you."
"Thank you... I think."
They awkwardly made peace and agreed to both go to find this help at the vampire's safe house that night.

The sun set and the vampires woke up. I can't remember who, but someone anwsered the phone, the Prince asked if the door had been fixed, they responded in the positive. The Prince said "Good, great, you've got some company coming tonight, remember, no fucking killing. These are friendlies."

I'm calling it here for today. I'm gonna be going down to Origins next Thursday morning and as such I'm not sure when posting will resume, I'm going to try and post while I'm down there but don't hold your breath. When I get back I'm gonna reclaim my Friday post for a week or two and write about something besides WoD.
