The feeling of euphoria that came from being lifted off the ground with absolutely no control over your destination was exquisite. Flying through the air after some trash was anything but graceful. He choked off a gasp as he was hurled to the roof of the building from street level. It was like falling in reverse and in this case Gray liked gravity to stay in one direction. He stumbled a landing in his quarry's path. "If you have anything useful in that bag of yours, now is the time!" Apparently this was Beth's idea. Well, better than chasing on the street until he got tired and she escaped. He'd have to explain in vivid details what he thought of being surprised like that though.

Gray's expression went from surprised to a wry smile like the guy at the poker table who just can't help how great his hand is. The gym bag was still clutched in his left hand and slightly unzipped, ready to pull something out of. The vampire's acute sense of smell would tell her that there was a hint of corrosive chemicals in there as well as some metal.

As Karram drew closer from behind he tried to talk her down from running. The vampiress seemed much more interested in Gray, like somehow she knew him and he'd offended her. So he responded to her in kind. "Look I have no idea how you know me but I will answer that question. Sorry to say this is not about you. It's all about your recent neighbor. Calls himself Nemsemet." He prepared to reach into the bag. A feat she more likely would notice as he continued. "We're not in an asking mood. Help us out by coming with us. If not you get to see what's in the bag." And she would get to meet Karram.
