She couldn't help but think that the situation could be avoided if they simply knew what was going on in the first place. What was suppose to do? Sit on her ass and wait till dawn over a simple letter with a business card? She stuck a strip of gum into her mouth and started to chew, offering some to the remaining people. She was curious to find out who this Jess person once, however she figured it would be a vampire or a Kitsune and she didnt want to do all that work for nothing again so she decide to leave that case alone. After Jack announce that he would change into a proper attire, Hana managed to say "That'll probably be best." She smiled at him as a sign that she was simply joking with him. Her attention shifted from the surrounding presence of annoyance from various occupants to the Gleeful Husky, still barking away. She always had a soft spot for animals that she felt had grown due to the lack of having one of her own.

Lilly decided to stay on the balcony as the people arrived. Gen seemed to be expecting them. She could have easily have gone in and joined in, but she just felt like she'd probably get in the way, after all, you generally didn't go to children for help with planning things on a scale as big as this. She closed her eyes for a moment, feeling the warmth of the sun on her skin, when she opened them again she saw Izuru sitting on the banister in front of her. "Hi Izuru." She said with a smile. She looked back into the room. "O-ok" She said in response to his suggestion that they go in and meet everyone.


@Nyctophiliac
 
Gracefully, Izuru leaped down from the banister and escorted the human inside. It was easy for him to distinguish that the two new faces were witches. Quite skilled ones, he was certain as well. The dog belonging, as it seemed, to Jack the Ripper, was barking its head off madly. Shugo turned away from it; he never did like the creatures. Instead, he focused his attention on the newcomers. "Greetings, I am Shugo Izuru the Black Fox. You wouldn't have heard of me, I'm sure." 


@Robyn Banks @SirGrey
 
Johnny sat back in his chair while Jack left to go get dressed. Listening to  the vampire explain about why this team seem to be getting brought together. So they were  going to use the gate here to go to the Dark Dimension and rescue the other Tourmaline. John was vaguely interested. He had other reasons to go to that place. Reasons Miss Tourmaline seemed to know. He grew a sly smile at mention of Jess's name. As John refused the gum he counted who they had on the team. Two witches, a hunter, two vampires, and a kitsune apparently. Responding to Shugo by saying "No i haven't heard of you mate ad my life would be just a good if never had" with a cynical tone.  "I'm having a cig" Johnny says going to the door to have a cigarette. @FrostFire @Robyn Banks  @CactusJuice @Bethari @Nyctophiliac

"Good morning, Izuru-san. Lilly, come sit next to me, if you want.", I smiled over at them both, and sighed at how bitter and defensive all of the humans in the room were. Was it so hard to be polite?


I wondered whether I should go and drag Lizzie out of Jack's bed, considering she obviously wasn't sleeping. I imagined she was just trying to avoid the company now in my room, although she would have to work with them anyway, so I saw no point in her putting off their meeting.


Decided, I marched into Jack's room, grabbed the end of the covers, and pulled the duvet, which flew off onto the floor next to me.


@Bethari @Geozaki @Nyctophiliac @SirGrey @CactusJuice @Robyn Banks
 
"AHHH!" Lizzie screamed as the covers flew over her head. Gen was leering over her like some kind of deranged goon. Maybe Vince was right? Gen was out to get her. Liz bolted from the bed and made a beeline for the bathroom, locking the door behind her. 


Jack, who was fixing his hair, looked askance at the frightened detective.


"She's insane," she panted, back shoved firmly against the door. "I swear she wants to kill me."


She looked around, noticing the man's wooden crossbow on the counter. She wished she had one herself at the moment. Doesn't it make sense? she thought, near hysteria, She's the one orchestrating this. The witches at the diner wanting to kill me, the insistence that I'm some hero needed to save the world: it's all a ploy. The witches want to kill us and they're using Genevieve to help finish the job. If others could hear her thoughts, they would have concluded that Lizzie was stark raving mad. However, considering that this was the third time she had almost been killed and that Gen was the reason she was in this mess to start with, her reasoning starts to look less insane.


One thing was certain: She was not going to leave the bathroom, no matter what that madwoman did.


Never trust someone who works with witches. 


@CactusJuice
 
She watched Johnny leave, deciding not to follow after him and revile him for his action since he must've needed time to himself. instead she addressed Izuru. "I apologize about my partner, we are both a little bewildered and he's quite perturb. No, I haven't but its nice to meet you. I haven't had the honor to work with a kitsun before. I'm Hana Decody, member of the coven."


She heard a scream after Genevieve left to go to the room that Lizzie was presumably in. Seemed like everyone was agnsty today. She leand on the soft, leather couch and sighed. It's going to be a long day, She thought.

The black kitsune dipped his head in acknowledgment. "No harm done. I'm guessing this is quite unusual for every one of us," he returned politely. A scream came after Genevieve left. It was the other vampire. None of this, not the working with witches, nor Hana's partner, nor the recent scream particularly fazed him. Of course, it was hard to tell with the mask obscuring his features, but his demeanor was unchanged. 


@Robyn Banks
 
Jack gave Lizzie a confused look. Even after she explained herself, he raised an eyebrow. "She probably wants to kill all of us and may try after all is said and done, but I'm confused as to how you came to the conclusion that locking yourself in the bathroom with me will solve that problem."  He finished fixing his hair, buttoned up his shirt, and tightened his tie. A smirk crossed his face. "Unless you have some trick I'm not aware of, I doubt we're outlasting the immortal vampire out there." He pulled on black leather gloves. "So is there anything I should be aware of?" His partner had obviously been hiding things from him, so he figured now as just as good a time as any to question her.
 
Johnny woke up a few days ago expecting to be going about his life, helping out were he could and more or less being in the driving seat of his life. Now all this was happening. Why did everyone expect him to be a big help. Most people John helps end up in a 'bad spot' to say the least. Then again that wasn't really what worried John. It was going back to the Dark  Dimension. All the times he's been there he has only just gotten out and even then that was with massive help from Jess. "Jess" Johnny muttered before taking another drag, Maybe it was worth blotting. "I ain't of bastard" the con man says to himslef more in reassurance. "Even if you do die as it was for something more then just yourself" Johnny mutters as he puts out the cig and goes back inside. @FrostFire @Robyn Banks  
 
Hana watched Johnny enter back i to the hotel room, seemingly more calm than before. "Are you ok? Hopefully your panties aren't still in a twist." she asked him in a concern tone. She paused for a moment before addressing the two men in the room. "Now if you excuse me, I'll be right back."  Hana rose from the secure spot on the couch and decided to take care of the situation personally. It was obvious everyone was in the midst of chaos. But there was things to be done nevertheless and the more time they wasted, the less opportunity they had to actaully get stuff done. Luckily for her she was fully trained in the ways of ceasing drama. 


First, she marched herself into the room where the three were in, placed her hand up to Genevieve as a sign that she has the matter handled, and knocked on the bathroom door. "Lizzie, it's the blonde chick you met at the cafe, Hana. I understand how you feel about me however, this is a very urgent matter. I apologize for my actions at the cafe but understand that I had a probable cause to do so and acted upon it. Im sure that if your comrades were in danger you would do the same...So open the door so we can get this problem on our hands taken cared of and move on with our life." she placed her hands in her pockets and waited for either one of them to open the door. She considered simply unlocking the door with her tools but that would cause more problems. Yet, she'll use it in the worst case scenerio.

Jack shrugged. "Well motive is an important part of any homicide case." There was a knock on the door. It seemed the woman from earlier was here to speak to Lizzie. He thought it best he make his presence known rather then remaining silent. If the woman thought he was trying to hide presence, she might develop some...misconceptions about what was going on. "Actually, I think one of her comrades is in danger right now. It seems she has taken me hostage." He said in a jestful manner. However, the woman's words had peaked his curiosity. "Mind telling me what happened at the cafe?" He asked Lizzie with a titled head. 


(Sorry for taking so long to respond. I either missed or didn't get a notification.)


@Bethari @Robyn Banks
 
Johnny sat back in the nice leather chair with his head refreshed. "Yeah I'm okay now just had to get my head straightened out" saying in a much more relaxed toned. As his partner went off to deal with Lizzie the con man looked over to the black kitsune saying "Sorry mate lets just say I've been having a time of it" with a jokey and apologetic tone. Deciding to let his partner handle things as he hears her speech from the other room. @Robyn Banks @Bethari @CactusJuice @FrostFire @Nyctophiliac
 
Liz sat with her back against the door. She was cornered; there seemed to be no escape. She snatched the crossbow from the counter and opened the door a tiny crack, standing off to the side as to avoid contact with sunlight. She had the bow trained on the girl at the door, thoughts racing. 


"You, Gen, and your boyfriend need to go away," she growled. "I didn't mean to hurt your asshole of a partner, but that doesn't matter, does it? Course not. You had to kill me because I'm eeevil. Did it matter that I tried to make it better, that I didn't intend to do any harm and took steps to ensure your boyfriend didn't go home woozy? Didn't matter. Evil. Then you try to track me down. But guess what? It didn't work. I'll help you over my dead body. And if you say one word, I swear..."


(( I think it's fair to say that Lizzie has lost it XD . Apologies to all who have to deal with her in this state. ))


@Robyn Banks @CactusJuice
 
She listened to Bethari speech, concluding that this wouldn't end in the way that she had thought it would. Guess it was time for option two.  She took out her lock pick set and opened the door. She only had a couple of seconds to snatch the bow from her hand but luckily she would've caught Lizzie by surprise. She then swooped her over her shoulders and walked out of the room, only to place her on the couch beside Johnny. 


"Everyone sit your butts down right now!" she commanded, wanting for everyone to take a seat. She went over to Lilly and gave her a smile. "Can you take a sit by your Mom for me darling?" Her face became stern as she shifted her attention to the group. First, she started off with Goodman. "Miss Goodman are you drunk or something? Because I don't know what the hell you think you're doing acting a fool. we need to get some things straight. This man here is not my boyfriend, We tracked you down because we needed a lead, I dont know if your evil or not but Doggone it, you're a detective so start acting like it!"


" And that goes to Y'all as well. Stop bickering and lolligagging so we can get to work! I did not spend 24 hours on a airplane, drive all over this forsaken town, and had to deal the supreme for you babies to start being snobs. Now shut your piewhole unless you have something decent to say or so help oh lord, I'm gonna rain down on you like the holy spirit! Do you understand!?"

"Well you are direct I'll give you that" Johnny mutters a she sits back in the chair. Good witch bad witch seemed to be replaced by manic angry witch and laid back witch. Still if it was needed Johnny had an idea on how to Lizzie. After all he was most likely the only one who knew of Vincent. Plus there was also the fact that he never did attack her. All he did was sit down. It was his partner that got angry at the diner the partner who attacked. Quick temper. Crossing his legs the con man sits down to watch events unfold. @Robyn Banks @CactusJuice @Bethari @Geozaki @Nyctophiliac @FrostFire
 
I blinked in shock, and then sighed as Lizzie ran into the bathroom, and the drama ensued. I hated drama. I went back into my room and sat down when Hana came to deal with Lizzie, I did not have the patience to.


Once everything was vaguely sorted out, I turned to Hana. "Thank you Hana. Ms Goodman, if I wanted to kill you, I would've done it when we first met. Or, even better, I would've finished you and Vincent off together.", I spat his name bitterly. I felt there was no need to explain things while people were like this, I would wait for, ironically, the werewolves to arrive. Hector would be much calmer than this looney bunch.


@Robyn Banks @Bethari @Jefferson


(Sorry I didn't reply in so long guys)
 
She started to lean against the wall. There were two things that the witch can't abide to egocentrics and stupidity. One can be tempered, the other can never be remedied. If this was the team she would gave to work with, might as well just jump off the balcony while she still has the chance. Maybe her last job wasn't bad, after it was said and done, she might as well transfer back. She started to put her earphones in and browse through her phone.
 
One vampire was paranoid. One witch was full of ire. The other witch had apologized for being rude. Lilly just seemed like she wanted to be out of the room.


"Missus Tourmaline, I think it would do much good to inform us of why we are gathered here in the first place," the masked kitsune suggested, ever the calm eye of the storm. "An objective might help us be patient enough to wait for anyone else... if you wouldn't mind explaining twice."

Johnny continued to sit back in his chair, as his partner came back.  Just as Hana was saying, well more like ordering everyone to sit down, Liz came back into the room. She looked liked she had been kicked in the gut. She sat down on a chair. Away from the witches. She seemed to have taken in the words, maybe a hurt pride maybe a combination of the two. As soon as the hunter was ready it would seem as if Gen could go over the full plan. @FrostFire @Nyctophiliac @Robyn Banks @CactusJuice

I sighed, "Perhaps I should. I'm sure some of you can relay back to Hector when he gets here. Ah, yes. Hector is a powerful werewolf that I have called in to protect this poor town. Now...", I sat back, and prepared for a long speech.


"I shall be splitting us into 2 groups. One shall stay here, another shall go to The Dark Dimension with myself. Those coming with me, we are going to search for the Fox key. This key has magical properties that can open any door, or even create a door that opens to anywhere. Inari bade Misao and Shinichi to hide the two halves of this key, somewhere in the Dark Dimension, and we are going to find it. This key will allow us to rescue many important people from the Shi no Shi, the resident prison there, which was taken over by Inari, where she has thrown any who dare defy her. Which are many. Oh, perhaps I should explain who Inari is... She is the leader of the evil clan of kitsune, whereas Hirohashi is the leader of the good. He has also been thrown into the Shi no Shi. Thankfully for us, but not for the group that stays here, Inari, Shinichi and Misao are all in this town. Misao has already infected people with Malach, and there is nothing we can do but brace for the worst. These malach will only infect a few, unfortunate, people. These will become Misao's pawns, which she will control form a distance. Now, for the crash course on malach. These things are parasites, and can grow larger than a fully grown man's leg. They will kill anything, and often swarm in area's that are given to them by Misao as nurseries. Trust me, these things mean certain death. Keep contact with them at a minimum.", my voice was sad, and it was obvious I had prior knowledge.


"Any questions?".


@Geozaki @Robyn Banks @SirGrey @Nyctophiliac @CactusJuice
 
Johnny


Finally standing up from the chair, whihc was a struggle considering how comfy it was. Going over to Gen who seemed to be the leader at this point the con man says "So how are we getting into the Dark Dimension I mean i have a pretty good idea about who is coming with us". It would be him of course cause that is Johnny's luck, Gen, the vampire detective and the black kitsune. It looked like a good team. Expect John. A witch. A wanted witch. "Maybe a better question would be how I'm going to get to that place I doubt the bus will be running around there" Johnny says with a smile. 


Liz


The detective sat in her chair as the other vampire went over the plan. Why was she her. Why had she been roped along. Why were the witches her. Especially Hana. Then again no reason to start a fight. After already losing one there was no point at getting even more humiliated. Besides if you want to learn about someone best thing to do is wall flower. Let them tell you without saying a word. 


@Geozaki @Robyn Banks @Nyctophiliac @CactusJuice @FrostFire
 
Lilly followed Izuru back inside the room. Gen offered for Lilly to sit next to her when they both entered the room, which Lilly would have happily moved to sit by Gen but before she had a chance, Gen left the room in an attempt to incorporate Liz into the conversation which didn't go too well. Lizzie had obviously developed some delusional complex about Gen and the two witches, Hana and Johnny. Gen returned to the room as Hana left, Hana returned moments later practically dragging Liz into the room. She spoke to Lilly gently, suggesting that she go and sit by Gen which she did without hesitation, nodding to Hana as to acknowledge her statement and not seem rude. When Hana turned to the rest of the group her demeanour changed and although she'd been kind towards Lilly, her new attitude still scared her a little. She went round the group, explaining how everyone needed to focus on the task at hand. When she was done, Gen explained the plan. Lilly listened closely, though she knew the plan already, Gen had been preparing for this day for a very long time.


@FrostFire @SirGrey @Nyctophiliac @Robyn Banks @CactusJuice


(Sorry for my absence everyone! So sorry!... Sowy...)
 
It seemed as if he'd been completely forgotten about. Jack sighed and poured himself a cup of coffee from the machine he had started in his room. He couldn't blame them. He'd just been caught up in all this coincidentally. He wasn't important. At least, he wasn't in their eyes. Judging from all of Gen's other friends, the other two were likely monsters of some sot as well. Which meant Jack was the only human here. He sat on his couch and listened to their conversation. Buffy curled up at his feet. In Jack's mind it was obvious he'd be accompanying Gen to this "Dark Dimension"; he had promised to help her find her husband after all. He wondered if it was just the name of some secret city, or if it was truly a another dimension. Whatever it was, it seemed to be a secret society where monsters thrived. Then Gen mentioned she'd had called a werewolf to protect this town. Perhaps, her definition of protect was different then his. Then again, maybe there wasn't a full moon anytime soon. What was so important about this town? Why would a kitsune attack it, and why would did Gen want to protect it? Then she spoke of the Malach. While he had no name for them before, he had encountered some of the nasty buggers. From what he could tell, it seemed like he was on the side one might refer to as the "good guys". However, for all he knew it could have been propaganda. They could very well be the "bad guys", or there could be no "good" or "bad" in this fight. He sipped his coffee quietly contemplating what he was hearing in the other room. She asked if anyone had questions, but, seeing as he wasn't really a part of the conversation, he decided not to ask any.
