[hider=OOC Header] Okay I'm switching to past tense, because I keep forgetting to write in present tense and it's a lot of editing I have to do to fix that. [/hider] The blood jets were certainly a smart move on the vampire's part. What it proved to Nick was that this fight was going to be rather tougher than the fight against Baines; this guy was clearly a lot more intelligent and crafty than his prior foe, who had barely figured out how to extend his blood vessels out of his body for a longer-ranged attack. And then again, he kept on going on about "stands"... no, 「Stands」. Again, the emphasis on that word made it seem exceptionally important, and it seemed like the vampire was spinning something around on his finger, something apparently called 「Heart Of Glass」... and yet Nick saw nothing but air, despite its description as a glass box. What was going on here? Was the vampire attempting to trick him, or... or was there perhaps some other supernatural ability that Nick had not been privy to up until now? And then he heard the commotion outside, and realised the vampire's ploy. His presence was a distraction, so he could sneak his zombies into the warehouse under cover of daylight and sneak attack the Kaisers at night, when the undead were at their strongest! 'Hah, nice try!' Nick exclaimed. 'As if I'd help a vampire like you do anything, especially after trying to sneak your ghouls into my abode! How about you stay there, and I'll get back to you in a moment, huh?' Nick felt rather proud of himself for figuring out this plan, and perhaps a bit cocky given the assumption that the vampire would stay put until he returned, but he had zombies to deal with, and no time to waste. He charged toward the nearest window, stopped to open it up and climb out, then began running toward the source of the noise, hoping to catch whatever overly sun-shielded zombie presented itself to him, so he could pummel daylight into it. Or just tear the clothes off the walking corpses, since they were so stupid as to come out in the light in the first place. [@Kafka Komedy][@Dark Eternity]
