Sorry for the very late post.

Sorry this is late,

I've been working on a story of sorts, it's medium is... strange and I intend to post it in it's completed form as soon as possible. So, your post.

Worlds of Darkness, Part 4.

Skipping ahead, all of the players were now working together, in theory. During the afternoon the werewolves harassed the cop, who was trying to get the keys to the houses involved in the mystery at the time, while the mage conducted a search of the nearby houses, matching the behavior of several characters, who were missing players, from the night before.

As the sun set the players made their way to the vampire's haven, the mage shared his findings with the Ventrue, who shared the findings of the two vampires who spent the previous night searching. They both learned the same thing, the houses were abandoned with no sign of struggle. Each house had a mage's sanctum in it somewhere. All that really confirmed was that what they'd been told by their respective leaders was the truth, they treated it like a revelation. The Deava notices he's being followed and when his stalkers stop, opening fire on him with machine guns he reverses the car right into theirs. One of the attackers becomes pinned standing up between his own car and it's door, which is being pressed down by the Deava's car. The other attacker stands and opens fire on another vampire, the Gangrel, who is charging at him with two swords drawn.

I asked the player "You're carrying swords?"
GANGREL"Yes."
ME"Two of them?"
GANGREL"Yes."
ME"...and no one noticed, you didn't mention it?"
GANGREL"They're under my coat."
ME"When I asked for a description of your character 'a coat big enough to hide my twin swords.' was not a part of your anwser."
GANGREL"Oops."
ME"So... your charging at him with your swords?"
GANGREL"Yeah, and.."*Dice are rolled*
ME"Okay, he's dead."
GANGREL"Now I'm gonna feed on him."
ME"In the middle of the street?"
GANGREL"I drag him behind the car."

The police officer, werewolves, mage and remaining vampire all gathered on the noise from the gun fire. The Gangrel wiped his mouth and let them know there was another one over with him. The vampires, mage and werewolves all made for home. The police officer waiting to be the first responding officer, having been in the neighborhood on police business anyway.

The vampires slept all day, the mage got up at around noon, and the werewolves got up around one. The police officer slept until five pm, when he got up for work. The werewolves accosted him at the first opportunity. The mage hit the doughnut shop and got into an argument with the the doughnut kid. Seems the kid wasn't aloud to work the cash register and the sandwich station at the same time. Since it would be a health code violation to let the customers make their own sandwiches they were at an impasse. The mage wouldn't accept it, he pressed on. The kid threatened to call a cop and the mage took his business elsewhere. He had some thing alcoholic and something grilled.

This was the night I was waiting for, okay, the Gangrel goes out hunting while everyone else shifts about listlessly. He gets to the bar and asks me, "What can I see?"
ME"Three people out front, two down the alley to the side, the alley is blocked off on it's east side by a chainlink fence, country and western music pours out from the bar."
GANGREL"Are the people out front drunk?"
ME"Yes, the people in the front of the bar are very clearly drunk."
GANGREL"I'm gonna head down the alley and approach the people in it."
ME"The people in the alley are a man in a trench coat and a girl in a short, bright dress."
GANGREL"I grab the girl by the throat and intimidate the man."
*Dice are rolled.*
ME"Take five aggravated damage(What this means will become clear in one second.)."
GANGREL"From what?"
ME"It might have something to do with the muzzle burn on your left cheek."
GANGREL"I intimidated him."
ME"... And he got scared and shot you in the face, the back of your skull is completely gone. Good thing you're a vampire or you'd be dead."
GANGREL"Okay, I let go of the girl and take a swing at the guy."
*Dice are rolled.*
ME"You hit, and then take two lethal damage."
GANGREL"He hit me back?"
ME"No, you let go of the girl, she went at your throat with a knife."

The Mekhet and the mage arrived at the same time, both of them launching themselves down the alley, guns drawn, they each fired once, the Mekhet hit the man and the mage missed and hit the woman.

Sensing things going south the mage decided to hightail it, straight into the responding police officers. He was arrested and charged with assault with a deadly weapon, he legally possessed the firearm. The Gangrel launched himself over the chainlink fence and used one of his powers to turn to mist and hide in the ground. The Mekhet convinced the police officers that he had vanished into thin air. The man, a drug dealer, was killed in the firefight with police, his girl friend was recovering in the hospital, the mage charged with the shooting.

The campain didn't end there, but maybe it should have, maybe one day I'll tell you all the rest of the story.
