Adrian groaned, watching the vampiress rip the hostile one off of him, draining it and tossing it aside, hard, scattering it against the rocks. Another one arrived and got killed, and he forced himself onto his feet, limping clearly but shouldering his rifle, and his prayers were answered when it fired, killing a third vampire that was charging the friendly vampiress from behind, and grimaced. [b]"Probably sprained ankle, battered and jarred to all hell, but I can run and live. Running might be necessary, considering you said this area is just swamped with the hostile vampires. Maybe if we keep up with the airship..."[/b] Several booming noises cut him off, and slammed into the ship, igniting it and sending it crashing into the ground. The flames and noise would probably attract attention, and he sighed, glancing at the vampiress. [b]"Alright, that was bad. Order fired from an aerial gunship, and are on the hunt now. And they won't be friendly, I had hoped the Grandmaster wouldn't resort to such actions..."[/b] He shouldered his rifle, looking around the two of them.

[b]"Know anywhere we can lay low within running distance of dawn? I ain't precisely from this neck of the woods."[/b] Pragmatism and survival took over right now, literally stuck on the ground, with large amounts of angry vampires and only one remotely sympathetic one with him right now, and he himself wasn't looking too hot, to put it mildly. He managed to keep his hat, somehow, and he readjusted it, scanning their surroundings. It was quiet, for the moment, since the hostile creatures had probably gone to swamp the shot down ship, and might be going to ground before dawn, or the gunship's teeth, found the lot of them and incinerated them. She probably realized how dangerous this was right now, and this was her game on the ground, as much as he hated to admit it, and said as much. [b]"Way I see it, we both have large, powerful enemies. I don't like your kind, even if you were forced, and you'd rather not be dealing with any of this at all. But I figure that, well..."[/b] He swallowed hard and continued, not sure what prompted him to extend the offer. [b]"We should probably stick together right now, with the vamps kicked like a riled up beehive and the Order out for blood now. I figure, a few days, things calm down, I can get back their way, and we can find you someplace that is quiet and has your preferred feed. If things work out in that ways favor. I don't think they will, though."[/b] He sighed, giving her the chance to choose here, she got drug into this unwillingly, after all.
